      net: fec: avoid kernal crash by NULL pointer when no phy connection · 213a9922
      Nimrod Andy authored
      On i.MX6SX sabreauto board, when there have no phy daughter board connection,
      there have kernel crash by NULL pointer:

      net: systemport: allow changing MAC address · fb3b596d
      Florian Fainelli authored
      Hook a ndo_set_mac_address callback, update the internal Ethernet MAC in
      the netdevice structure, and finally write that address down to the
      UniMAC registers. If the interface is down, and most likely clock gated,
      we do not update the registers but just the local copy, such that next
      ndo_open() call will effectively write down the address.

      Merge branch 'bridge_mode' · 62710379
      David S. Miller authored
      Roopa Prabhu says:
      
      ====================
      remove bridge mode BRIDGE_MODE_SWDEV
      
      BRIDGE_MODE_SWDEV was introduced to indicate switchdev offloads
      for bridging from user space (In other words to call into the hw switch
      port driver directly). But user can use existing BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF
      to call into the hw switch port driver today. swdev mode is not required
      anymore. So, this patch removes it.
      
      v4 - v5
          incorporate comments
          - Define BRIDGE_MODE_UNDEF to handle cases where mode is not defined
          - reverse the order of patches
          - include patch comments in all patches

      John W. Linville says:
      
      ====================
      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

      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.

      ... 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.

      Note that the code _using_ ->msg_iter at that point will be very
      unhappy with anything other than unshifted iovec-backed iov_iter.
      We still need to convert users to proper primitives.
