2014-12-17mac80211: avoid reconfig if no interfaces are upEliad Peller
If there are no interfaces up, there is no reason to continue the reconfig flow. The current code might end up calling driver callbacks (e.g. resume(), reconfig_complete()) while the driver is already stopped.

Commit e1a0c6b ("mac80211: stop toggling IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40") mistakenly removed the actual update of sta->sta.bandwidth. Refactor ieee80211_sta_cur_vht_bw() into multiple functions (calculate caps-bw and chandef-bw separately, and min them with cur_max_bandwidth).

When writing the code to allow per-station GTKs, I neglected to take into account the management frame keys (index 4 and 5) when freeing the station and only added code to free the first four data frame keys.

2014-12-17cfg80211: avoid intersection when applying self-managed regArik Nemtsov
The custom-reg handling function can currently only add flags to a given channel. This results in stale flags being left applied. In some cases a channel was disabled and even the orig_flags were changed to reflect this. Previously the API was designed for a single invocation before wiphy registration, so this didn't matter. The previous approach doesn't scale well to self-managed regulatory devices, particularly when a more permissive regdom is applied after a restrictive one.

2014-12-17cfg80211: allow wiphy specific regdomain managementJonathan Doron
Add a new regulatory flag that allows a driver to manage regdomain changes/updates for its own wiphy. A self-managed wiphys only employs regulatory information obtained from the FW and driver and does not use other cfg80211 sources like beacon-hints, country-code IEs and hints from other devices on the same system. Conversely, a self-managed wiphy does not share its regulatory hints with other devices in the system. If a system contains several devices, one or more of which are self-managed, there might be contradictory regulatory settings between them. Usage of flag is generally discouraged. Only use it if the FW/driver is incompatible with non-locally originated hints. A new API lets the driver send a complete regdomain, to be applied on its wiphy only. After a wiphy-specific regdomain change takes place, usermode will get a new type of change notification. The regulatory core also takes care enforce regulatory restrictions, in case some interfaces are on forbidden channels.

2014-12-17mac80211: keep sending peer candidate events while in listen stateNishikawa, Kenzoh
Instead of sending peer candidate events just once, send them as long as the peer remains in the LISTEN state in the peering state machine, when userspace is implementing the peering manager. Userspace may silence the events from a peer by progressing the state machine or by setting the link state to BLOCKED. Fixes the problem that a mesh peering process won't be fired again after the previous first peering trial fails due to like air propagation error if the peering is managed by user space such as wpa_supplicant.

2014-12-11Merge branch 'dma_mb'David S. Miller
Alexander Duyck says: ==================== arch: Add lightweight memory barriers for coherent memory access These patches introduce two new primitives for synchronizing cache coherent memory writes and reads. These two new primitives are: dma_rmb() dma_wmb() The first patch cleans up some unnecessary overhead related to the definition of read_barrier_depends, smp_read_barrier_depends, and comments related to the barrier. The second patch adds the primitives for the applicable architectures and asm-generic. The third patch adds the barriers to r8169 which turns out to be a good example of where the new barriers might be useful as they have full rmb()/wmb() barriers ordering accesses to the descriptors and the DescOwn bit. The fourth patch adds support for coherent_rmb() to the Intel fm10k, igb, and ixgbe drivers. Testing with the ixgbe driver has shown a processing time reduction of at least 7ns per 64B frame on a Core i7-4930K. This patch series is essentially the v7 for: v4-7: Add lightweight memory barriers for coherent memory access v3: Add lightweight memory barriers fast_rmb() and fast_wmb() v2: Introduce load_acquire() and store_release() v1: Introduce read_acquire() The key changes in this patch series versus the earlier patches are: v7 resubmit: - Added Acked-by: Ben Herrenschmidt from v5 to dma_rmb/wmb patch - No code changes from previous set, still applies cleanly and builds. v7: - Dropped test/debug patch that was accidentally slipped in v6: - Replaced "memory based device I/O" with "consistent memory" in docs - Added reference to DMA-API.txt to explain consistent memory v5: - Renamed barriers dma_rmb and dma_wmb - Undid smp_wmb changes in x86 and PowerPC - Defined smp_rmb as __lwsync for SMP case on PowerPC v4: - Renamed barriers coherent_rmb and coherent_wmb - Added smp_lwsync for use in smp_load_acquire/smp_store_release v3: - Moved away from acquire()/store() and instead focused on barriers - Added cleanup of read_barrier_depends - Added change in r8169 to fix cur_tx/DescOwn ordering - Simplified changes to just replacing/moving barriers in r8169 - Added update to documentation with code example v2: - Renamed read_acquire() to be consistent with smp_load_acquire() - Changed barrier used to be consistent with smp_load_acquire() - Updated PowerPC code to use __lwsync based on IBM article - Added store_release() as this is a viable use case for drivers - Added r8169 patch which is able to fully use primitives - Added fm10k/igb/ixgbe patch which is able to test performance ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-12-11fm10k/igb/ixgbe: Use dma_rmb on Rx descriptor readsAlexander Duyck
This change makes it so that dma_rmb is used when reading the Rx descriptor. The advantage of dma_rmb is that it allows for a much lower cost barrier on x86, powerpc, arm, and arm64 architectures than a traditional memory barrier when dealing with reads that only have to synchronize to coherent memory. In addition I have updated the code so that it just checks to see if any bits have been set instead of just the DD bit since the DD bit will always be set as a part of a descriptor write-back so we just need to check for a non-zero value being present at that memory location rather than just checking for any specific bit. This allows the code itself to appear much cleaner and allows the compiler more room to optimize.

2014-12-11r8169: Use dma_rmb() and dma_wmb() for DescOwn checksAlexander Duyck
The r8169 use a pair of wmb() calls when setting up the descriptor rings. The first is to synchronize the descriptor data with the descriptor status, and the second is to synchronize the descriptor status with the use of the MMIO doorbell to notify the device that descriptors are ready. This can come at a heavy price on some systems, and is not really necessary on systems such as x86 as a simple barrier() would suffice to order store/store accesses. As such we can replace the first memory barrier with dma_wmb() to reduce the cost for these accesses. In addition the r8169 uses a rmb() to prevent compiler optimization in the cleanup paths, however by moving the barrier down a few lines and replacing it with a dma_rmb() we should be able to use it to guarantee descriptor accesses do not occur until the device has updated the DescOwn bit from its end. One last change I made is to move the update of cur_tx in the xmit path to after the wmb. This way we can guarantee the device and all CPUs should see the DescOwn update before they see the cur_tx value update.

2014-12-11arch: Add lightweight memory barriers dma_rmb() and dma_wmb()Alexander Duyck
There are a number of situations where the mandatory barriers rmb() and wmb() are used to order memory/memory operations in the device drivers and those barriers are much heavier than they actually need to be. For example in the case of PowerPC wmb() calls the heavy-weight sync instruction when for coherent memory operations all that is really needed is an lsync or eieio instruction. This commit adds a coherent only version of the mandatory memory barriers rmb() and wmb(). In most cases this should result in the barrier being the same as the SMP barriers for the SMP case, however in some cases we use a barrier that is somewhere in between rmb() and smp_rmb(). For example on ARM the rmb barriers break down as follows: Barrier Call Explanation --------- -------- ---------------------------------- rmb() dsb() Data synchronization barrier - system dma_rmb() dmb(osh) data memory barrier - outer sharable smp_rmb() dmb(ish) data memory barrier - inner sharable These new barriers are not as safe as the standard rmb() and wmb(). Specifically they do not guarantee ordering between coherent and incoherent memories. The primary use case for these would be to enforce ordering of reads and writes when accessing coherent memory that is shared between the CPU and a device. It may also be noted that there is no dma_mb(). Most architectures don't provide a good mechanism for performing a coherent only full barrier without resorting to the same mechanism used in mb(). As such there isn't much to be gained in trying to define such a function.

2014-12-11arch: Cleanup read_barrier_depends() and commentsAlexander Duyck
This patch is meant to cleanup the handling of read_barrier_depends and smp_read_barrier_depends. In multiple spots in the kernel headers read_barrier_depends is defined as "do {} while (0)", however we then go into the SMP vs non-SMP sections and have the SMP version reference read_barrier_depends, and the non-SMP define it as yet another empty do/while. With this commit I went through and cleaned out the duplicate definitions and reduced the number of definitions down to 2 per header. In addition I moved the 50 line comments for the macro from the x86 and mips headers that defined it as an empty do/while to those that were actually defining the macro, alpha and blackfin.

In case there is no PHY at the designated address on the internal switch, we would basically de-reference a null pointer here: dsa_slave_phy_setup(...) { p->phy = ds->slave_mii_bus->phy_map[p->port]; phy_connect_direct(slave_dev, p->phy, dsa_slave_adjust_link, ^------ This can be triggered when the platform configuration (platform_data or Device Tree) indicates there should be a PHY device at this address, but the HW is non-responsive, such that we cannot attach a PHY device at this specific location.

Currently, when trying to reuse a socket, vxlan_sock_add will grab vn->sock_lock, locate a reusable socket, inc refcount and release vn->sock_lock. But vxlan_sock_release() will first decrement refcount, and then grab that lock. refcnt operations are atomic but as currently we have deferred works which hold vs->refcnt each, this might happen, leading to a use after free (specially after vxlan_igmp_leave): CPU 1 CPU 2 deferred work vxlan_sock_add ... ... spin_lock(&vn->sock_lock) vs = vxlan_find_sock(); vxlan_sock_release dec vs->refcnt, reaches 0 spin_lock(&vn->sock_lock) vxlan_sock_hold(vs), refcnt=1 spin_unlock(&vn->sock_lock) hlist_del_rcu(&vs->hlist); vxlan_notify_del_rx_port(vs) spin_unlock(&vn->sock_lock) So when we look for a reusable socket, we check if it wasn't freed already before reusing it.

2014-12-11net/mlx4: Add support for A0 steeringMatan Barak
Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT, QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used to configure and query the device. The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are: Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user in order to be used. Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user. In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS. Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user. The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized steering in Default A0 DMFS mode). Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll work at Disable A0 DMFS mode. Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled, older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag (MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that, the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too. In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param. If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this bit field enables static A0 steering. Signed-off-by: Matan Barak <matanb@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
