====================
Kill arch_fast_hash

Due to the size of changes I have based this against net-next,
also given 3.18 is already out. I've split this into 3 parts,
the first two to remove existing users (so they can optionally
go to stable) and the last one to kill the remaining library bits.

Let me know if there are any issues.

0cb6c969ed net, lib: kill arch_fast_hash library bits
As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill
it entirely.

This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac3e ("lib: introduce arch
optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit
237217546d ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"),
commit e3fec2f74f ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for
asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652df5
("perf tools: Fix include for non x86 architectures").

87545899b5 net: replace remaining users of arch_fast_hash with jhash
This patch effectively reverts commit 500f808726 ("net: ovs: use CRC32
accelerated flow hash if available"), and other remaining arch_fast_hash()
users such as from nfsd via commit 6282cd5655 ("NFSD: Don't hand out
delegations for 30 seconds after recalling them.") where it has been used
as a hash function for bloom filtering.

While we think that these users are actually not much of concern, it has
been requested to remove the arch_fast_hash() library bits that arose
from [1] entirely as per recent discussion [2]. The main argument is that
using it as a hash may introduce bias due to its linearity (see avalanche
criterion) and thus makes it less clear (though we tried to document that)
when this security/performance trade-off is actually acceptable for a
general purpose library function.

Lets therefore avoid any further confusion on this matter and remove it to
prevent any future accidental misuse of it. For the time being, this is
going to make hashing of flow keys a bit more expensive in the ovs case,
but future work could reevaluate a different hashing discipline.

7f19fc5e0b netlink: use jhash as hashfn for rhashtable
For netlink, we shouldn't be using arch_fast_hash() as a hashing
discipline, but rather jhash() instead.

Since netlink sockets can be opened by any user, a local attacker
would be able to easily create collisions with the DPDK-derived
arch_fast_hash(), which trades off performance for security by
using crc32 CPU instructions on x86_64.

While it might have a legimite use case in other places, it should
be avoided in netlink context, though. As rhashtable's API is very
flexible, we could later on still decide on other hashing disciplines,
if legitimate.

Kernel CAPI has been the recommended ISDN subsystem for the Gigaset

340b6e59fb tipc: fix broadcast wakeup contention after congestion
commit 908344cdda ("tipc: fix bug in multicast congestion handling")
introduced a race in the broadcast link wakeup functionality.

This patch eliminates this broadcast link wakeup race caused by
operation on the wakeup list without proper locking. If this race
hit and corrupted the list all subsequent wakeup messages would be
lost, resulting in a considerable memory leak.

67fd893ee0 ethernet/intel: Use napi_alloc_skb
This change replaces calls to netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align with
napi_alloc_skb.  The advantage of napi_alloc_skb is currently the fact that
the page allocation doesn't make use of any irq disable calls.

There are few spots where I couldn't replace the calls as the buffer
allocation routine is called as a part of init which is outside of the
softirq context.

fd11a83dd3 net: Pull out core bits of __netdev_alloc_skb and add __napi_alloc_skb
This change pulls the core functionality out of __netdev_alloc_skb and
places them in a new function named __alloc_rx_skb.  The reason for doing
this is to make these bits accessible to a new function __napi_alloc_skb.
In addition __alloc_rx_skb now has a new flags value that is used to
determine which page frag pool to allocate from.  If the SKB_ALLOC_NAPI
flag is set then the NAPI pool is used.  The advantage of this is that we
do not have to use local_irq_save/restore when accessing the NAPI pool from
NAPI context.

In my test setup I saw at least 11ns of savings using the napi_alloc_skb
function versus the netdev_alloc_skb function, most of this being due to
the fact that we didn't have to call local_irq_save/restore.

The main use case for napi_alloc_skb would be for things such as copybreak
or page fragment based receive paths where an skb is allocated after the
data has been received instead of before.

ffde7328a3 net: Split netdev_alloc_frag into __alloc_page_frag and add __napi_alloc_frag
This patch splits the netdev_alloc_frag function up so that it can be used
on one of two page frag pools instead of being fixed on the
netdev_alloc_cache.  By doing this we can add a NAPI specific function
__napi_alloc_frag that accesses a pool that is only used from softirq
context.  The advantage to this is that we do not need to call
local_irq_save/restore which can be a significant savings.

I also took the opportunity to refactor the core bits that were placed in
__alloc_page_frag.  First I updated the allocation to do either a 32K
allocation or an order 0 page.  This is based on the changes in commmit
d9b2938aa where it was found that latencies could be reduced in case of
failures.  Then I also rewrote the logic to work from the end of the page to
the start.  By doing this the size value doesn't have to be used unless we
have run out of space for page fragments.  Finally I cleaned up the atomic
bits so that we just do an atomic_sub_and_test and if that returns true then
we set the page->_count via an atomic_set.  This way we can remove the extra
conditional for the atomic_read since it would have led to an atomic_inc in
the case of success anyway.

pull request: wireless-next 2014-12-08

Please pull this last batch of pending wireless updates for the 3.19 tree...

For the wireless bits, Johannes says:

"This time I have Felix's no-status rate control work, which will allow
drivers to work better with rate control even if they don't have perfect
status reporting. In addition to this, a small hwsim fix from Patrik,
one of the regulatory patches from Arik, and a number of cleanups and
fixes I did myself.

Of note is a patch where I disable CFG80211_WEXT so that compatibility
is no longer selectable - this is intended as a wake-up call for anyone
who's still using it, and is still easily worked around (it's a one-line
patch) before we fully remove the code as well in the future."

For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:

"Here's one more bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19:

 - Minor cleanups for ieee802154 & mac802154
 - Fix for the kernel warning with !TASK_RUNNING reported by Kirill A.
   Shutemov
 - Support for another ath3k device
 - Fix for tracking link key based security level
 - Device tree bindings for btmrvl + a state update fix
 - Fix for wrong ACL flags on LE links"

And...

"In addition to the previous one this contains two more cleanups to
mac802154 as well as support for some new HCI features from the
Bluetooth 4.2 specification.

From the original request:

'Here's what should be the last bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19.
It's rather large but the majority of it is the Low Energy Secure
Connections feature that's part of the Bluetooth 4.2 specification. The
specification went public only this week so we couldn't publish the
corresponding code before that. The code itself can nevertheless be
considered fairly mature as it's been in development for over 6 months
and gone through several interoperability test events.

Besides LE SC the pull request contains an important fix for command
complete events for mgmt sockets which also fixes some leaks of hci_conn
objects when powering off or unplugging Bluetooth adapters.

A smaller feature that's part of the pull request is service discovery
support. This is like normal device discovery except that devices not
matching specific UUIDs or strong enough RSSI are filtered out.

Other changes that the pull request contains are firmware dump support
to the btmrvl driver, firmware download support for Broadcom BCM20702A0
variants, as well as some coding style cleanups in 6lowpan &
ieee802154/mac802154 code.'"

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"With this one we get:

- NFC digital improvements for DEP support: Chaining, NACK and ATN
  support added.

- NCI improvements: Support for p2p target, SE IO operand addition,
  SE operands extensions to support proprietary implementations, and
  a few fixes.

- NFC HCI improvements: OPEN_PIPE and NOTIFY_ALL_CLEARED support,
  and SE IO operand addition.

- A bunch of minor improvements and fixes for STMicro st21nfcb and
  st21nfca"

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"Major works are CSA and TDLS. On top of that I have a new
firmware API for scan and a few rate control improvements.
Johannes find a few tricks to improve our CPU utilization
and adds support for a new spin of 7265 called 7265D.
Along with this a few random things that don't stand out."

And...

"I deprecate here -8.ucode since -9 has been published long ago.
Along with that I have a new activity, we have now better
a infrastructure for firmware debugging. This will allow to
have configurable probes insides the firmware.
Luca continues his work on NetDetect, this feature is now
complete. All the rest is minor fixes here and there."

For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"Only ath10k changes this time and no major changes. Most visible are:

o new debugfs interface for runtime firmware debugging (Yanbo)

o fix shared WEP (Sujith)

o don't rebuild whenever kernel version changes (Johannes)

o lots of refactoring to make it easier to add new hw support (Michal)

There's also smaller fixes and improvements with no point of listing
here."

In addition, there are a few last minute updates to ath5k,
ath9k, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, mwifiex, rt2x00, rtlwifi, and wil6210.
Also included is a pull of the wireless tree to pick-up the fixes
originally included in "pull request: wireless 2014-12-03"...

Please let me know if there are problems!

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-12-09

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.

Jeff (me) provides a single patch to convert a macro to a static inline
function based on feedback from Joe Perches on a previous patch.

Shannon provides the remaining twelve patches against i40e.  Almost all
of Shannon's patches cleanup/fix NVM issues varying in range from
adding more detail to debug messages, to removing dead code, to fixing
NVM state transitions after an error.  Change the handy decoder interface
for admin queue return code to help catch and properly report the condition
as a useful errno rather than returning a misleading '0'.  Added a range
check to avoid any possible array index-out-of-bound issues.

v2:
 - fixed up patch 05 in the series to use the ARRAY_SIZE() macro as suggested
   by Sergei Shtylyov
 - fix up patch 13 to remove unnecessary parens in the return statement
   as suggested by Sergei Shtylyov

605ad7f184 tcp: refine TSO autosizing
Commit 95bd09eb27 ("tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing") tried to
control TSO size, but did this at the wrong place (sendmsg() time)

At sendmsg() time, we might have a pessimistic view of flow rate,
and we end up building very small skbs (with 2 MSS per skb).

This is bad because :

 - It sends small TSO packets even in Slow Start where rate quickly
   increases.
 - It tends to make socket write queue very big, increasing tcp_ack()
   processing time, but also increasing memory needs, not necessarily
   accounted for, as fast clones overhead is currently ignored.
 - Lower GRO efficiency and more ACK packets.

Servers with a lot of small lived connections suffer from this.

Lets instead fill skbs as much as possible (64KB of payload), but split
them at xmit time, when we have a precise idea of the flow rate.
skb split is actually quite efficient.

Patch looks bigger than necessary, because TCP Small Queue decision now
has to take place after the eventual split.

As Neal suggested, introduce a new tcp_tso_autosize() helper, so that
tcp_tso_should_defer() can be synchronized on same goal.

Rename tp->xmit_size_goal_segs to tp->gso_segs, as this variable
contains number of mss that we can put in GSO packet, and is not
related to the autosizing goal anymore.

e5a4b0bb80 switch memcpy_to_msg() and skb_copy{,_and_csum}_datagram_msg() to primitives
... making both non-draining.  That means that tcp_recvmsg() becomes
non-draining.  And _that_ would break iscsit_do_rx_data() unless we
	a) make sure tcp_recvmsg() is uniformly non-draining (it is)
	b) make sure it copes with arbitrary (including shifted)
iov_iter (it does, all it uses is iov_iter primitives)
	c) make iscsit_do_rx_data() initialize ->msg_iter only once.

Fortunately, (c) is doable with minimal work and we are rid of one
the two places where kernel send/recvmsg users would be unhappy with
non-draining behaviour.

Actually, that makes all but one of ->recvmsg() instances iov_iter-clean.
The exception is skcipher_recvmsg() and it also isn't hard to convert
to primitives (iov_iter_get_pages() is needed there).  That'll wait
a bit - there's some interplay with ->sendmsg() path for that one.
