On timeout the TCP sender unconditionally resets the estimated degree
of network reordering (tp->reordering). The idea behind this is that
the estimate is too large to trigger fast recovery (e.g., due to a IP
path change).
But for example if the sender only had 2 packets outstanding, then a
timeout doesn't tell much about reordering. A sender that learns about
reordering on big writes and loses packets on small writes will end up
falsely retransmitting again and again, especially when reordering is
more likely on big writes.
Therefore the sender should only suspect that tp->reordering is too
high if it could have gone into fast recovery with the (lower) default
estimate.

This is a batch of updates intended for 3.12. It is mostly driver
stuff, although Johannes Berg and Simon Wunderlich make a good
showing with mac80211 bits (particularly some work on 5/10 MHz
channel support).
The usual suspects are mostly represented. There are lots of updates
to iwlwifi, ath9k, ath10k, mwifiex, rt2x00, wil6210, as usual.
The bcma bus gets some love this time, as do cw1200, iwl4965, and a
few other bits here and there. I don't think there is much unusual
here, FWIW.

eTSEC has Rx and Tx flow control capabilities that may be enabled
through MACCFG1[Rx_Flow, Tx_Flow] bits. These bits must not be set
however when eTSEC is operated in Half-Duplex mode. Unfortunately,
the driver currently sets these bits unconditionally.
This patch adds the proper handling of the PAUSE frame capability
register bits by implementing the ethtool -A interface. When pause
autoneg is enabled, the controller uses the phy's capability to
negotiate PAUSE frame settings with the link partner and reconfigures
its Rx_Flow and Tx_Flow settings to match the capabilities of the
link partner. If pause autoneg is off, the PAUSE frame generation
may be forced manually (ethtool -A). Flow control is disabled by
default now.
This implementation is inspired by the tg3 driver.

Adding paged frags skbs to af_unix sockets introduced a performance
regression on large sends because of additional page allocations, even
if each skb could carry at least 100% more payload than before.
We can instruct sock_alloc_send_pskb() to attempt high order
allocations.
Most of the time, it does a single page allocation instead of 8.
I added an additional parameter to sock_alloc_send_pskb() to
let other users to opt-in for this new feature on followup patches.

unix_stream_sendmsg() currently uses order-2 allocations,
and we had numerous reports this can fail.
The __GFP_REPEAT flag present in sock_alloc_send_pskb() is
not helping.
This patch extends the work done in commit eb6a24816b
("af_unix: reduce high order page allocations) for
datagram sockets.
This opens the possibility of zero copy IO (splice() and
friends)
The trick is to not use skb_pull() anymore in recvmsg() path,
and instead add a @consumed field in UNIXCB() to track amount
of already read payload in the skb.
There is a performance regression for large sends
because of extra page allocations that will be addressed
in a follow-up patch, allowing sock_alloc_send_pskb()
to attempt high order page allocations.

This is a first step for improving fairness between legacy and 802.11n
traffic, and it should also improve reliability of resets and channel
changes by keeping the hardware queue depth very short.
When an aggregation session is torn down, all packets in the retry queue
will be removed from the BAW and freed.
For all subframes that have not been transmitted yet, the A-MPDU flag
will be cleared, and a sequence number allocated. This ensures that the
next A-MPDU session will get the correct initial sequence number.
This happens both on aggregation session start and stop.

Coalesce filters are configured in firmware based on settings
received from cfg80211.
Packet type which is required by firmware is determined based on
provided patterns in a rule:
Unicast: if pattern '01' with offset 0 is found
Multicast: if pattern '33:33' or '01:00:5e' with offset 0 is found
Broadcast: if pattern 'ff:ff:ff:ff' with offset 0 is found
Some example coalesce configuration files:
1) Coalesce Rx data packets from 192.168.0.88
mac address of our device is 00:50:43:21:53:7A
Source IP address offset comes out as 52 after following
calculations:
32 bytes of HW 802.11 header + 8 bytes LLC +
12 bytes in IPV4 header till source IP address
Destination mac is at offset 6 in HW header.
delay=100
condition=1
patterns=01,6+00:50:43:22,10+53:7A,52+c0:a8:00:58
2) Coalesce all broadcast and multicast packets(Multiple packet
types are not allowed in a single rule. Hence created separate
rules)
delay=400
condition=1
patterns=33:33
delay=400
