John W. Linville says: ==================== For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "This time, I have a number of small fixes and improvements, and those are fairly straight-forward. More interesting changes come from Luca with some preparations for the CSA work, mostly around interface/channel combinations checking. One other possibly interesting change is a small one by myself to add NAPI support back to mac80211, which can help improve TCP behaviour through GRO." For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says: "This is our first pull request for 3.15, the main feature here is the addition of the privacy feature for low energy devices. Other than that we have a bunch of small improvements, fixes, and clean ups all over the tree." And... "Another pull request to 3.15. Here we have the second part of the LE private feature, the LE auto-connect feature and improvements to the power off procedures. The rest are small improvements, clean up, and fixes." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have here a whole bunch of various things. Trivial cleanups, debugfs handlers and new stuff for the new generation of devices along with new capabilities for monitor mode. We also have support for power save for dual interface mode, but that is not supported by the firmware currently available." And for the Atheros bits, Kalle says: "For ath10k Alexander did some cleanup to PCI error cases and switched ath10k to use pci_enable_msi_range(). Michal implemented AP CSA support and sta_rc_update() operation. I enabled firmware "STA quick kickout" functionality for faster detection of disappeared clients. Also there are lots of small fixes to everywhere from various people." I pulled the wireless tree to avoid some merge conflicts, and I reverted the staging patch that I had mistakenly merged previously. Along with that, mwifiex, brcmfmac, wil6210, ath9k, and a few other drivers get their usual round of updates. Also notable is the addition of yet another driver in the rtlwifi family. ... I have amended this commit request to correct the build problems in staging, including a warning added to one of the staging drivers by the wireless-next tree. I also included a fix from Larry Finger to address an issue found in rtl8723be by Dan Carpenter and smatch. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Commit a619d1ab leads to the following static checker warning: drivers/net/wireless/rtlwifi/rtl8723be/phy.c:667 _rtl8723be_store_tx_power_by_rate() error: buffer overflow 'rtlphy->tx_power_by_rate_offset[band]' 4 <= 5 This warning arises because the code is testing the indices for the wrong maximum values. In addition, the tests merely putput a warning, and then procedes to corrupt memory. With this change, any such invalid memory access is avoided.

This is basically just to let Coverity et al shut up. Remove an unneeded NULL check in sctp_assoc_update_retran_path(). It is safe to remove it, because in sctp_assoc_update_retran_path() we iterate over the list of transports, our own transport which is asoc->peer.retran_path included. In the iteration, we skip the list head element and transports in state SCTP_UNCONFIRMED. Such transports came from peer addresses received in INIT/INIT-ACK address parameters. They are not yet confirmed by a heartbeat and not available for data transfers. We know however that in the list of transports, even if it contains such elements, it at least contains our asoc->peer.retran_path as well, so even if next to that element, we only encounter SCTP_UNCONFIRMED transports, we are always going to fall back to asoc->peer.retran_path through sctp_trans_elect_best(), as that is for sure not SCTP_UNCONFIRMED as per fbdf501c ("sctp: Do no select unconfirmed transports for retransmissions"). Whenever we call sctp_trans_elect_best() it will give us a non-NULL element back, and therefore when we break out of the loop, we are guaranteed to have a non-NULL transport pointer, and can remove the NULL check.

Eric W. Biederman says: ==================== Using dev_kfree_skb_any for functions called in multiple contexts This patchset should be an uncontroversial set of changes to change dev_kfree_skb to dev_kfree_skb_any for code paths that are called in hard irq contexts in addition to other contexts. netpoll is the reason this code gets called in multiple contexts. There is more coming but these changes are a good starting place, and stand on their own. Since the last round changes to the rx path have been removed netpoll will changed to avoid that. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

netpoll can call functions in hard irq context that are ordinarily called in lesser contexts. For those functions use dev_kfree_skb_any and dev_consume_skb_any so skbs are freed safely from hard irq context. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Or Gerlitz says: ==================== mlx4: Add SRIOV support for RoCE This series adds SRIOV support for RoCE (RDMA over Ethernet) to the mlx4 driver. The patches are against net-next, as of commit 2d8d40af "pkt_sched: fq: do not hold qdisc lock while allocating memory" changes from V1: - addressed feedback from Dave on patch #3 and changed get_real_sgid_index() to be called fill_in_real_sgid_index() and be a void function. - removed some checkpatch warnings on long lines changes from V0: - always check the return code of mlx4_get_roce_gid_from_slave(). The call we fixed is introduced in patch #1 and later removed by patch #3 that allows guests to have multiple GIDS. The 1..3 separation was done for proper division of patches to logical changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

To activate RoCE/SRIOV, need to remove the following: 1. In mlx4_ib_add, need to remove the error return preventing initialization of a RoCE port under SRIOV. 2. In update_vport_qp_params (in resource_tracker.c) need to remove the error return when a RoCE RC or UD qp is detected. This error return causes the INIT-to-RTR qp transition to fail in the wrapper function under RoCE/SRIOV.

Since there is no connection between the MAC/VLAN and the GID when using IP-based addressing, the proxy QP1 (running on the slave) must pass the source-mac, destination-mac, and vlan_id information separately from the GID. Additionally, the Host must pass the remote source-mac and vlan_id back to the slave, This is achieved as follows: Outgoing MADs: 1. Source MAC: obtained from the CQ completion structure (struct ib_wc, smac field). 2. Destination MAC: obtained from the tunnel header 3. vlan_id: obtained from the tunnel header. Incoming MADs 1. The source (i.e., remote) MAC and vlan_id are passed in the tunnel header to the proxy QP1. VST mode support: For outgoing MADs, the vlan_id obtained from the header is discarded, and the vlan_id specified by the Hypervisor is used instead. For incoming MADs, the incoming vlan_id (in the wc) is discarded, and the "invalid" vlan (0xffff) is substituted when forwarding to the slave.

The IB side of RoCE requires the MAC table index of the MAC address used by its QPs. To obtain the real MAC index, the IB side registers the MAC (increasing its ref count, and also returning the real MAC index) during the modify-qp sequence. This protects against the ETH side deleting or modifying that MAC table entry while the QP is active. Note that until the modify-qp command returns success, the MAC and VLAN information only has "candidate" status. If the modify-qp succeeds, the "candidate" info is promoted to the operational MAC/VLAN info for the qp. If the modify fails, the candidate MAC/VLAN is unregistered, and the old qp info is preserved. The patch is a bit complex, because there are multiple qp transitions where the primary-path information may be modified: INIT-to-RTR, and SQD-to-SQD. Similarly for the alternate path information. Therefore the code must handle cases where path information has already been entered into the QP context by previous qp transitions. For the MAC address, the success logic is as follows: 1. If there was no previous MAC, simply move the candidate MAC information to the operational information, and reset the candidate MAC info. 2. If there was a previous MAC, unregister it. Then move the MAC information from candidate to operational, and reset the candidate info (as in 1. above). The MAC address failure logic is the same for all cases: - Unregister the candidate MAC, and reset the candidate MAC info. For Vlan registration, the logic is similar.

The GIDs are statically distributed, as follows: PF: gets 16 GIDs VFs: Remaining GIDS are divided evenly between VFs activated by the driver. If the division is not even, lower-numbered VFs get an extra GID. For an IB interface, the number of gids per guest remains as before: one gid per guest.

For IB transport, the host determines the slave GIDs. For ETH (RoCE), however, the slave's GID is determined by the IP address that the slave itself assigns to the ETH device used by RoCE. In this case, the slave must be able to write its GIDs to the HCA gid table (at the GID indices that slave "owns"). This commit adds processing for the SET_PORT_GID_TABLE opcode modifier for the SET_PORT command wrapper (so that slaves may modify their GIDS for RoCE).

This requires the following modifications: 1. Fix build_mlx4_header to properly fill in the ETH fields 2. Adjust mux and demux QP1 flow to support RoCE. This commit still assumes only one GID per slave for RoCE. The commit enabling multiple GIDs is a subsequent commit, and is done separately because of its complexity.
