Linus Lüssing 5d02b3cdfa batman-adv: Make bat_priv->curr_gw an rcu protected pointer
The rcu protected macros rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer()
for the bat_priv->curr_gw need to be used, as well as spin/rcu locking.

Otherwise we might end up using a curr_gw pointer pointing to already
freed memory.

Marek Lindner f3e0008f01 batman-adv: make broadcast seqno operations atomic
Batman-adv could receive several payload broadcasts at the same time
that would trigger access to the broadcast seqno sliding window to
determine whether this is a new broadcast or not. If these incoming
broadcasts are accessing the sliding window simultaneously it could
be left in an inconsistent state. Therefore it is necessary to make
sure this access is atomic.

Marek Lindner ed75ccbe26 batman-adv: Correct rcu refcounting for batman_if
It might be possible that 2 threads access the same data in the same
rcu grace period. The first thread calls call_rcu() to decrement the
refcount and free the data while the second thread increases the
refcount to use the data. To avoid this race condition all refcount
operations have to be atomic.

David S. Miller 44713b67db ipv4: Optimize flow initialization in output route lookup.
We burn a lot of useless cycles, cpu store buffer traffic, and
memory operations memset()'ing the on-stack flow used to perform
output route lookups in __ip_route_output_key().

Only the first half of the flow object members even matter for
output route lookups in this context, specifically:

FIB rules matching cares about:

	dst, src, tos, iif, oif, mark

FIB trie lookup cares about:

	dst

FIB semantic match cares about:

	tos, scope, oif

Therefore only initialize these specific members and elide the
memset entirely.

On Niagara2 this kills about ~300 cycles from the output route
lookup path.

Likely, we can take things further, since all callers of output
route lookups essentially throw away the on-stack flow they use.
So they don't care if we use it as a scratch-pad to compute the
final flow key.

Andi Kleen 5c4b4be3b6 mm: use correct numa policy node for transparent hugepages
Pass down the correct node for a transparent hugepage allocation.  Most
callers continue to use the current node, however the hugepaged daemon
now uses the previous node of the first to be collapsed page instead.
This ensures that khugepaged does not mess up local memory for an
existing process which uses local policy.

The choice of node is somewhat primitive currently: it just uses the
node of the first page in the pmd range.  An alternative would be to
look at multiple pages and use the most popular node.  I used the
simplest variant for now which should work well enough for the case of
all pages being on the same node.

Thomas Gleixner 95b90afec3 pps: make pps_gen_parport depend on BROKEN
This driver causes hard lockups, when the active clock soure is jiffies.

The reason is that it loops with interrupts disabled waiting for a
timestamp to be reached by polling getnstimeofday().  Though with a
jiffies clocksource, when that code runs on the same CPU which is
responsible for updating jiffies, then we loop in circles for ever
simply because the timer interrupt cannot update jiffies.  So both UP
and SMP can be affected.

There is no easy fix for that problem so make it depend on BROKEN for
now.

  cpu_idle+0x95/0xb8
  start_kernel+0x220/0x225
  _sinittext+0x22f/0x236

It occurs because an skb with a fraglist was freed from the tcp
retransmit queue when it was acked, but a page on that fraglist had
PG_Slab set (indicating it was allocated from the Slab allocator (which
means the free path above can't safely free it via put_page.

We tracked this back to an nfsv4 setacl operation, in which the nfs code
attempted to fill convert the passed in buffer to an array of pages in
__nfs4_proc_set_acl, which gets used by the skb->frags list in
xs_sendpages.  __nfs4_proc_set_acl just converts each page in the buffer
to a page struct via virt_to_page, but the vfs allocates the buffer via
kmalloc, meaning the PG_slab bit is set.  We can't create a buffer with
kmalloc and free it later in the tcp ack path with put_page, so we need
to either:

1) ensure that when we create the list of pages, no page struct has
   PG_Slab set

 or

2) not use a page list to send this data

Given that these buffers can be multiple pages and arbitrarily sized, I
think (1) is the right way to go.  I've written the below patch to
allocate a page from the buddy allocator directly and copy the data over
to it.  This ensures that we have a put_page free-able page for every
entry that winds up on an skb frag list, so it can be safely freed when
the frame is acked.  We do a put page on each entry after the
rpc_call_sync call so as to drop our own reference count to the page,
leaving only the ref count taken by tcp_sendpages.  This way the data
will be properly freed when the ack comes in

Successfully tested by myself to solve the above oops.

Note, as this is the result of a setacl operation that exceeded a page
of data, I think this amounts to a local DOS triggerable by an
uprivlidged user, so I'm CCing security on this as well.

Eric Dumazet 65e8354ec1 inetpeer: seqlock optimization
David noticed :

------------------
Eric, I was profiling the non-routing-cache case and something that
stuck out is the case of calling inet_getpeer() with create==0.

If an entry is not found, we have to redo the lookup under a spinlock
to make certain that a concurrent writer rebalancing the tree does
not "hide" an existing entry from us.

This makes the case of a create==0 lookup for a not-present entry
really expensive.  It is on the order of 600 cpu cycles on my
Niagara2.

I added a hack to not do the relookup under the lock when create==0
and it now costs less than 300 cycles.

This is now a pretty common operation with the way we handle COW'd
metrics, so I think it's definitely worth optimizing.
-----------------

One solution is to use a seqlock instead of a spinlock to protect struct
inet_peer_base.

After a failed avl tree lookup, we can easily detect if a writer did
some changes during our lookup. Taking the lock and redo the lookup is
only necessary in this case.

Note: Add one private rcu_deref_locked() macro to place in one spot the
access to spinlock included in seqlock.

Sage Weil e00de341fd libceph: fix msgr standby handling
The standby logic used to be pretty dependent on the work requeueing
behavior that changed when we switched to WQ_NON_REENTRANT.  It was also
very fragile.

Restructure things so that:
 - We clear WRITE_PENDING when we set STANDBY.  This ensures we will
   requeue work when we wake up later.
 - con_work backs off if STANDBY is set.  There is nothing to do if we are
   in standby.
 - clear_standby() helper is called by both con_send() and con_keepalive(),
   the two actions that can wake us up again.  Move the connect_seq++
   logic here.

Sage Weil e76661d0a5 libceph: fix msgr keepalive flag
There was some broken keepalive code using a dead variable.  Shift to using
the proper bit flag.

Sage Weil 60bf8bf881 libceph: fix msgr backoff
With commit f363e45f we replaced a bunch of hacky workqueue mutual
exclusion logic with the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag.  One pieces of fallout is
that the exponential backoff breaks in certain cases:

 * con_work attempts to connect.
 * we get an immediate failure, and the socket state change handler queues
   immediate work.
 * con_work calls con_fault, we decide to back off, but can't queue delayed
   work.

In this case, we add a BACKOFF bit to make con_work reschedule delayed work
next time it runs (which should be immediately).

Stanislaw Gruszka 410f2bb30d iwlwifi: avoid too frequent recover from statistics
Usually H/W generate statistics notify once per about 100ms, but
sometimes we can receive notify in shorter time, even 2 ms.

This can be problem for plcp health and ack health checking.

I.e. with 2 plcp errors happens randomly in 2 ms duration, we
exceed plcp delta threshold equal to 100 (2*100/2).

Also checking ack's in short time, can results not necessary false
positive and firmware reset, for example when channel is noised and
we do not receive ACKs frames or when remote device does not send
ACKs at the moment.

Patch change code to do statistic check and possible recovery only
if 99ms elapsed from last check. Forced delay should assure we have
good statistic data to estimate hardware state.

Stanislaw Gruszka 466a19a003 iwlwifi: move rx handlers code to iwl-rx.c
Put generic rx_handlers (except iwlagn_rx_reply_compressed_ba) to
iwl-rx.c . Make functions static and change prefix from iwlagn_ to
iwl_ . Beautify iwl_setup_rx_handlers and do some other minor coding
style changes.
