Li Zefan 8e8ba85417 cls_cgroup: clean up for cgroup part
- It's better to use container_of() instead of casting cgroup_subsys_state *
  to cgroup_cls_state *.
- Add helper function task_cls_state().
- Rename net_cls_state() to cgrp_cls_state().

Eric W. Biederman 8eb7986396 netns: foreach_netdev_safe is insufficient in default_device_exit
During network namespace teardown we either move or delete
all of the network devices associated with a network namespace.
In the case of veth devices deleting one will also delete it's
pair device.  If both devices are in the same network namespace
then for_each_netdev_safe is insufficient as next may point
to the second veth device we have deleted.

To avoid problems I do what we do in __rtnl_kill_links and
restart the scan of the device list, after we have deleted
a device.

Currently dev_change_netnamespace does not appear to suffer from
this problem, but wireless devices are also paired and likely
should be moved between network namespaces together.  So I have
errored on the side of caution and restart the scan of the network
devices in that case as well.

The initial skb may have been freed after napi_gro_complete in
napi_gro_receive if it was merged into an existing packet.  Thus
we cannot check same_flow (which indicates whether it was merged)
after calling napi_gro_complete.

Peter P Waskiewicz Jr d7b06636be net: Init NAPI dev_list on napi_del
The recent GRO patches introduced the NAPI removal of devices in
free_netdev.  For drivers that can change the number of queues during
driver operation, the NAPI infrastructure doesn't allow the freeing and
re-addition of NAPI entities without reloading the driver.

This change reinitializes the dev_list in each NAPI struct on delete,
instead of just deleting it (and assigning the list pointers to POISON).
Drivers that wish to remove/re-add NAPI will need to re-initialize the
netdev napi_list after removing all NAPI instances, before re-adding NAPI
devices again.

Herbert Xu 64ff3b938e tcp: Always set urgent pointer if it's beyond snd_nxt
Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer
does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the
sequence number of a packet.

This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts
the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification
(though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible.
Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification
indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up.

Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which
incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and
conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data.

Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only
if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted.  This
way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with
non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have
advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent
data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet.

The only potential downside is that applications on the remote
end may see multiple SIGURG notifications.  However, this would
occur anyway with other TCP stacks.  More importantly, the outcome
of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since
the signal itself does not carry any information other than the
fact that we're in urgent mode.

If FWD-TSN chunk is received with bad stream ID, the sctp will not do the

The FORWARD-TSN chunk is like this:

FORWARD-TSN chunk

  Flags                      = 0

  Stream                     = 10000

Olga Kornievskaia 2efef7080f rpc: add service field to new upcall
This patch extends the new upcall with a "service" field that currently
can have 2 values: "*" or "nfs". These values specify matching rules for
principals in the keytab file. The "*" means that gssd is allowed to use
"root", "nfs", or "host" keytab entries while the other option requires
"nfs".

Restricting gssd to use the "nfs" principal is needed for when the
server performs a callback to the client.  The server in this case has
to authenticate itself as an "nfs" principal.

We also need "service" field to distiguish between two client-side cases
both currently using a uid of 0: the case of regular file access by the
root user, and the case of state-management calls (such as setclientid)
which should use a keytab for authentication.  (And the upcall should
fail if an appropriate principal can't be found.)

Two principals are involved in krb5 authentication: the target, who we
authenticate *to* (normally the name of the server, like
nfs/server.citi.umich.edu@CITI.UMICH.EDU), and the source, we we
authenticate *as* (normally a user, like bfields@UMICH.EDU)

In the case of NFSv4 callbacks, the target of the callback should be the
source of the client's setclientid call, and the source should be the
nfs server's own principal.

Therefore we allow svcgssd to pass down the name of the principal that
just authenticated, so that on setclientid we can store that principal
name with the new client, to be used later on callbacks.

\"J. Bruce Fields\ c381060869 rpc: add an rpc_pipe_open method
We want to transition to a new gssd upcall which is text-based and more
easily extensible.

To simplify upgrades, as well as testing and debugging, it will help if
we can upgrade gssd (to a version which understands the new upcall)
without having to choose at boot (or module-load) time whether we want
the new or the old upcall.

We will do this by providing two different pipes: one named, as
currently, after the mechanism (normally "krb5"), and supporting the
old upcall.  One named "gssd" and supporting the new upcall version.

We allow gssd to indicate which version it supports by its choice of
which pipe to open.

As we have no interest in supporting *simultaneous* use of both
versions, we'll forbid opening both pipes at the same time.

So, add a new pipe_open callback to the rpc_pipefs api, which the gss
code can use to track which pipes have been open, and to refuse opens of
incompatible pipes.

We only need this to be called on the first open of a given pipe.

I want to add a little more code here, so it'll be convenient to have

Also, I'll want to add another error condition, so it'll be more
convenient to return -ENOMEM than NULL in the error case.  The only

Jeff Layton 6dcd3926b2 sunrpc: fix code that makes auth_gss send destroy_cred message (try #2)
There's a bit of a chicken and egg problem when it comes to destroying
auth_gss credentials. When we destroy the last instance of a GSSAPI RPC
credential, we should send a NULL RPC call with a GSS procedure of
RPCSEC_GSS_DESTROY to hint to the server that it can destroy those
creds.

This isn't happening because we're setting clearing the uptodate bit on
the credentials and then setting the operations to the gss_nullops. When
we go to do the RPC call, we try to refresh the creds. That fails with
-EACCES and the call fails.

Fix this by not clearing the UPTODATE bit for the credentials and adding
a new crdestroy op for gss_nullops that just tears down the cred without
trying to destroy the context.

The only difference between this patch and the first one is the removal
of some minor formatting deltas.

Peter Staubach 64672d55d9 optimize attribute timeouts for "noac" and "actimeo=0"
Hi.

I've been looking at a bugzilla which describes a problem where
a customer was advised to use either the "noac" or "actimeo=0"
mount options to solve a consistency problem that they were
seeing in the file attributes.  It turned out that this solution
did not work reliably for them because sometimes, the local
attribute cache was believed to be valid and not timed out.
(With an attribute cache timeout of 0, the cache should always
appear to be timed out.)

In looking at this situation, it appears to me that the problem
is that the attribute cache timeout code has an off-by-one
error in it.  It is assuming that the cache is valid in the
region, [read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo].  The
cache should be considered valid only in the region,
[read_cache_jiffies, read_cache_jiffies + attrtimeo).  With this
change, the options, "noac" and "actimeo=0", work as originally
expected.

This problem was previously addressed by special casing the
attrtimeo == 0 case.  However, since the problem is only an off-
by-one error, the cleaner solution is address the off-by-one
error and thus, not require the special case.

    Thanx...

Trond Myklebust 88a9fe8cae SUNRPC: Remove the last remnant of the BKL...
Somehow, this escaped the previous purge. There should be no need to keep
any extra locks in the XDR callbacks.

The NFS client XDR code only writes into private objects, whereas all reads
of shared objects are confined to fields that do not change, such as
filehandles...

Ditto for lockd, the NFSv2/v3 client mount code, and rpcbind.

The nfsd XDR code may require the BKL, but since it does a synchronous RPC
call from a thread that already holds the lock, that issue is moot.

Kalle Valo 520eb82076 mac80211: implement dynamic power save
This patch implements dynamic power save for mac80211. Basically it
means enabling power save mode after an idle period. Implementing it
dynamically gives a good compromise of low power consumption and low
latency. Some hardware have support for this in firmware, but some
require the host to do it.

The dynamic power save is implemented by adding an timeout to
ieee80211_subif_start_xmit(). The timeout can be enabled from userspace
with Wireless Extensions. For example, the command below enables the
dynamic power save and sets the time timeout to 500 ms:

iwconfig wlan0 power timeout 500m

Power save now only works with devices which handle power save in firmware.
It's also disabled by default and the heuristics when and how to enable is
considered as a policy decision and will be left for the userspace to handle.
In case the firmware has support for this, drivers can disable this feature
with IEEE80211_HW_NO_STACK_DYNAMIC_PS.

Big thanks to Johannes Berg for the help with the design and code.

It seems that pimlen arg could be left out as well and
eq-sizedness of structs trapped with BUILD_BUG_ON but
I don't think that's more than a cosmetic flaw since there
aren't that many args anyway.

Compile tested.

Herbert Xu bf296b125b tcp: Add GRO support
This patch adds the TCP-specific portion of GRO.  The criterion for
merging is extremely strict (the TCP header must match exactly apart
from the checksum) so as to allow refragmentation.  Otherwise this
is pretty much identical to LRO, except that we support the merging
of ECN packets.

Herbert Xu 71d93b39e5 net: Add skb_gro_receive
This patch adds the helper skb_gro_receive to merge packets for
GRO.  The current method is to allocate a new header skb and then
chain the original packets to its frag_list.  This is done to
make it easier to integrate into the existing GSO framework.

In future as GSO is moved into the drivers, we can undo this and
simply chain the original packets together.

Herbert Xu 73cc19f155 ipv4: Add GRO infrastructure
This patch adds GRO support for IPv4.

The criteria for merging is more stringent than LRO, in particular,
we require all fields in the IP header to be identical except for
the length, ID and checksum.  In addition, the ID must form an
arithmetic sequence with a difference of one.

The ID requirement might seem overly strict, however, most hardware
TSO solutions already obey this rule.  Linux itself also obeys this
whether GSO is in use or not.

In future we could relax this rule by storing the IDs (or rather
making sure that we don't drop them when pulling the aggregate
skb's tail).

Herbert Xu d565b0a1a9 net: Add Generic Receive Offload infrastructure
This patch adds the top-level GRO (Generic Receive Offload) infrastructure.
This is pretty similar to LRO except that this is protocol-independent.
Instead of holding packets in an lro_mgr structure, they're now held in
napi_struct.

For drivers that intend to use this, they can set the NETIF_F_GRO bit and
call napi_gro_receive instead of netif_receive_skb or just call netif_rx.
The latter will call napi_receive_skb automatically.  When napi_gro_receive
is used, the driver must either call napi_complete/napi_rx_complete, or
call napi_gro_flush in softirq context if the driver uses the primitives
__napi_complete/__napi_rx_complete.

Protocols will set the gro_receive and gro_complete function pointers in
order to participate in this scheme.

In addition to the packet, gro_receive will get a list of currently held
packets.  Each packet in the list has a same_flow field which is non-zero
if it is a potential match for the new packet.  For each packet that may
match, they also have a flush field which is non-zero if the held packet
must not be merged with the new packet.

Once gro_receive has determined that the new skb matches a held packet,
the held packet may be processed immediately if the new skb cannot be
merged with it.  In this case gro_receive should return the pointer to
the existing skb in gro_list.  Otherwise the new skb should be merged into
the existing packet and NULL should be returned, unless the new skb makes
it impossible for any further merges to be made (e.g., FIN packet) where
the merged skb should be returned.

Whenever the skb is merged into an existing entry, the gro_receive
function should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->same_flow.  Note that if an skb
merely matches an existing entry but can't be merged with it, then
this shouldn't be set.

If gro_receive finds it pointless to hold the new skb for future merging,
it should set NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->flush.

Held packets will be flushed by napi_gro_flush which is called by
napi_complete and napi_rx_complete.

Currently held packets are stored in a singly liked list just like LRO.
The list is limited to a maximum of 8 entries.  In future, this may be
expanded to use a hash table to allow more flows to be held for merging.

Herbert Xu 1a881f27c5 net: Add frag_list support to GSO
This patch allows GSO to handle frag_list in a limited way for the
purposes of allowing packets merged by GRO to be refragmented on
output.

Most hardware won't (and aren't expected to) support handling GRO
frag_list packets directly.  Therefore we will perform GSO in
software for those cases.

However, for drivers that can support it (such as virtual NICs) we
may not have to segment the packets at all.

Whether the added overhead of GRO/GSO is worthwhile for bridges
and routers when weighed against the benefit of potentially
increasing the MTU within the host is still an open question.
However, for the case of host nodes this is undoubtedly a win.

Herbert Xu 89319d3801 net: Add frag_list support to skb_segment
This patch adds limited support for handling frag_list packets in
skb_segment.  The intention is to support GRO (Generic Receive Offload)
packets which will be constructed by chaining normal packets using
frag_list.

As such we require all frag_list members terminate on exact MSS
boundaries.  This is checked using BUG_ON.

As there should only be one producer in the kernel of such packets,
namely GRO, this requirement should not be difficult to maintain.
