bonding: Fix bonding drivers improper modification of netpoll structure
The bonding driver currently modifies the netpoll structure in its xmit path
while sending frames from netpoll.  This is racy, as other cpus can access the
netpoll structure in parallel. Since the bonding driver points np->dev to a
slave device, other cpus can inadvertently attempt to send data directly to
slave devices, leading to improper locking with the bonding master, lost frames,
and deadlocks.  This patch fixes that up.

This patch also removes the real_dev pointer from the netpoll structure as that
data is really only used by bonding in the poll_controller, and we can emulate
its behavior by check each slave for IS_UP.

can: mcp251x: Don't use pdata->model for chip selection anymore
Since commit e446630c96, i.e. v2.6.35-rc1,
the mcp251x chip model can be selected via the modalias member in the
struct spi_board_info. The driver stores the actual model in the
struct mcp251x_platform_data.

From the driver point of view the platform_data should be read only.
Since all in-tree users of the mcp251x have already been converted to
the modalias method, this patch moves the "model" member from the
struct mcp251x_platform_data to the driver's private data structure.

net: allocate skbs on local node
commit b30973f877 (node-aware skb allocation) spread a wrong habit of
allocating net drivers skbs on a given memory node : The one closest to
the NIC hardware. This is wrong because as soon as we try to scale
network stack, we need to use many cpus to handle traffic and hit
slub/slab management on cross-node allocations/frees when these cpus
have to alloc/free skbs bound to a central node.

skb allocated in RX path are ephemeral, they have a very short
lifetime : Extra cost to maintain NUMA affinity is too expensive. What
appeared as a nice idea four years ago is in fact a bad one.

In 2010, NIC hardwares are multiqueue, or we use RPS to spread the load,
and two 10Gb NIC might deliver more than 28 million packets per second,
needing all the available cpus.

Cost of cross-node handling in network and vm stacks outperforms the
small benefit hardware had when doing its DMA transfert in its 'local'
memory node at RX time. Even trying to differentiate the two allocations
done for one skb (the sk_buff on local node, the data part on NIC
hardware node) is not enough to bring good performance.

Phonet: 'connect' socket implementation for Pipe controller
Based on suggestion by Rémi Denis-Courmont to implement 'connect'
for Pipe controller logic,  this patch implements 'connect' socket
call for the Pipe controller logic.
The patch does following:-
- Removes setsockopts for PNPIPE_CREATE and PNPIPE_DESTROY
- Adds setsockopt for setting the Pipe handle value
- Implements connect socket call
- Updates the Pipe controller logic

User-space should now follow below sequence with Pipe controller:-
-socket
-bind
-setsockopt for PNPIPE_PIPE_HANDLE
-connect
-setsockopt for PNPIPE_ENCAP_IP
-setsockopt for PNPIPE_ENABLE

GPRS/3G data has been tested working fine with this.

wext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point'
wext: fix alignment problem in serializing 'struct iw_point'

This fixes a typo in the definition of the serialized length of struct iw_point:
 a) wireless.h is exported to userspace, the typo causes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN
    to be 12 on 64-bit, and 8 on 32-bit systems (causing misalignment);
 b) in compat-64 mode iwe_stream_add_point() memcpys overlap (see below).

The second case in  in compat-64 mode looks like (variable names are as in
include/net/iw_handler.h:iwe_stream_add_point()):

 point_len = IW_EV_COMPAT_POINT_LEN = 8
 lcp_len   = IW_EV_COMPAT_LCP_LEN   = 4
 2nd memcpy: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8

 IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN
 <-------------->                *---> 'extra' data area
 +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+
 | len   | cmd   |length | flags |  (empty) -> extra      ... |
 +-------+-------+-------+-------+---------------+------- ...-+
    2       2       2       2          4

     lcp_len
 <-------------->                <-!! OVERLAP !!>
 <--1st memcpy--><------- 2nd memcpy ----------->
                                 <---- 3rd memcpy ------- ... >
 <--------- point_len ---------->

This case could cause overrun whenever iw_point.length < 4.
The other two cases are -
 * 32-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN =  8 - 4 = 4,
   the second memcpy copies exactly the 4 required bytes;
 * 64-bit systems: IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN - IW_EV_LCP_PK_LEN = 12 - 4 = 8,
   the second memcpy copies a superfluous (but non overlapping) 4 bytes.

The patch changes IW_EV_POINT_PK_LEN to be 8, so that in all 3 cases always only
the requested iw_point.{length,flags} (both __u16) are copied, avoiding overrrun
(compat-64) and superfluous copy (64-bit). In addition, the userspace header is
sanitized (in agreement with version 30 of the wireless tools).

net: percpu net_device refcount
We tried very hard to remove all possible dev_hold()/dev_put() pairs in
network stack, using RCU conversions.

There is still an unavoidable device refcount change for every dst we
create/destroy, and this can slow down some workloads (routers or some
app servers, mmap af_packet)

We can switch to a percpu refcount implementation, now dynamic per_cpu
infrastructure is mature. On a 64 cpus machine, this consumes 256 bytes
per device.

On x86, dev_hold(dev) code :

before
        lock    incl 0x280(%ebx)
after:

mac80211: Update mesh constants to approved IEEE ANA values
This patch updates IEEE802.11 mesh constants to be consistent with newly
approved values. It modifies some values, as well as adds many new constants
in preparation for updating mesh code to the current 802.11s drafts. ANA
numbers were taken from:
https://mentor.ieee.org/802.11/dcn/09/11-09-0031-12-0000-ana-database-assigned-number-authority.xls

A few notes are in order:
1. This will break backwards compatibility with existing Linux kernels as
over-the-air constants have changed.
2. Some old and obsolete constants have been retained for now as the mesh code
itself hasn't been updated yet to the new 802.11s draft. This was desired to
keep the existing mesh scheme working until it can be updated. Adding the
approved values is the first step in updating the mesh code.
3. Obsolete constants have been clearly marked.
4. All ANA approved 802.11s constants have been added.

neigh: speedup neigh_hh_init()
When a new dst is used to send a frame, neigh_resolve_output() tries to
associate an struct hh_cache to this dst, calling neigh_hh_init() with
the neigh rwlock write locked.

Most of the time, hh_cache is already known and linked into neighbour,
so we find it and increment its refcount.

This patch changes the logic so that we call neigh_hh_init() with
neighbour lock read locked only, so that fast path can be run in
parallel by concurrent cpus.

This brings part of the speedup we got with commit c7d4426a98
(introduce DST_NOCACHE flag) for non cached dsts, even for cached ones,
removing one of the contention point that routers hit on multiqueue
enabled machines.

Further improvements would need to use a seqlock instead of an rwlock to
protect neigh->ha[], to not dirty neigh too often and remove two atomic
ops.

Phonet: cleanup pipe enable socket option
The current code works like this:

  int garbage, status;
  socklen_t len = sizeof(status);

  /* enable pipe */
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
  /* disable pipe */
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_DISABLE, &garbage, sizeof(garbage));
  /* get status */
  getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_INQ, &status, &len);

...which does not follow the usual socket option pattern. This patch
merges all three "options" into a single gettable&settable option,
before Linux 2.6.37 gets out:

  int status;
  socklen_t len = sizeof(status);

  /* enable pipe */
  status = 1;
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
  /* disable pipe */
  status = 0;
  setsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, sizeof(status));
  /* get status */
  getsockopt(fd, SOL_PNPIPE, PNPIPE_ENABLE, &status, &len);

This also fixes the error code from EFAULT to ENOTCONN.

net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter
In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)

We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)

This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

modules: Fix module_bug_list list corruption race
With all the recent module loading cleanups, we've minimized the code
that sits under module_mutex, fixing various deadlocks and making it
possible to do most of the module loading in parallel.

However, that whole conversion totally missed the rather obscure code
that adds a new module to the list for BUG() handling.  That code was
doubly obscure because (a) the code itself lives in lib/bugs.c (for
dubious reasons) and (b) it gets called from the architecture-specific
"module_finalize()" rather than from generic code.

Calling it from arch-specific code makes no sense what-so-ever to begin
with, and is now actively wrong since that code isn't protected by the
module loading lock any more.

So this commit moves the "module_bug_{finalize,cleanup}()" calls away
from the arch-specific code, and into the generic code - and in the
process protects it with the module_mutex so that the list operations
are now safe.

Future fixups:
 - move the module list handling code into kernel/module.c where it
   belongs.
 - get rid of 'module_bug_list' and just use the regular list of modules
   (called 'modules' - imagine that) that we already create and maintain
   for other reasons.

net: rename netdev rx_queue to ingress_queue
There is some confusion with rx_queue name after RPS, and net drivers
private rx_queue fields.

I suggest to rename "struct net_device"->rx_queue to ingress_queue.

net: Allow changing number of RX queues after device allocation
For RPS, we create a kobject for each RX queue based on the number of
queues passed to alloc_netdev_mq().  However, drivers generally do not
determine the numbers of hardware queues to use until much later, so
this usually represents the maximum number the driver may use and not
the actual number in use.

For TX queues, drivers can update the actual number using
netif_set_real_num_tx_queues().  Add a corresponding function for RX
queues, netif_set_real_num_rx_queues().

Phonet: Implement Pipe Controller to support Nokia Slim Modems
Phonet stack assumes the presence of Pipe Controller, either in Modem or
on Application Processing Engine user-space for the Pipe data.
Nokia Slim Modems like WG2.5 used in ST-Ericsson U8500 platform do not
implement Pipe controller in them.
This patch adds Pipe Controller implemenation to Phonet stack to support
Pipe data over Phonet stack for Nokia Slim Modems.

tcp: Fix >4GB writes on 64-bit.
Fixes kernel bugzilla #16603

tcp_sendmsg() truncates iov_len to an 'int' which a 4GB write to write
zero bytes, for example.

There is also the problem higher up of how verify_iovec() works.  It
wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return
value.

However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and
thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines).  So it could trigger
false-positives on 64-bit as written.  So fix it to use 'long'.

net: loopback driver cleanup
loopback driver uses dev->ml_priv to store its percpu stats pointer.
It uses ugly casts "(void __percpu __force *)" to shut up sparse
complains.

Define an union to better document we use ml_priv in loopback driver and
define a lstats field with appropriate types.
