Pull core block layer changes from Jens Axboe: "This is the core block IO pull request for 3.18. Apart from the new and improved flush machinery for blk-mq, this is all mostly bug fixes and cleanups. - blk-mq timeout updates and fixes from Christoph. - Removal of REQ_END, also from Christoph. We pass it through the ->queue_rq() hook for blk-mq instead, freeing up one of the request bits. The space was overly tight on 32-bit, so Martin also killed REQ_KERNEL since it's no longer used. - blk integrity updates and fixes from Martin and Gu Zheng. - Update to the flush machinery for blk-mq from Ming Lei. Now we have a per hardware context flush request, which both cleans up the code should scale better for flush intensive workloads on blk-mq. - Improve the error printing, from Rob Elliott. - Backing device improvements and cleanups from Tejun. - Fixup of a misplaced rq_complete() tracepoint from Hannes. - Make blk_get_request() return error pointers, fixing up issues where we NULL deref when a device goes bad or missing. From Joe Lawrence. - Prep work for drastically reducing the memory consumption of dm devices from Junichi Nomura. This allows creating clone bio sets without preallocating a lot of memory. - Fix a blk-mq hang on certain combinations of queue depths and hardware queues from me. - Limit memory consumption for blk-mq devices for crash dump scenarios and drivers that use crazy high depths (certain SCSI shared tag setups). We now just use a single queue and limited depth for that" * 'for-3.18/core' of git://git.kernel.dk/linux-block: (58 commits) block: Remove REQ_KERNEL blk-mq: allocate cpumask on the home node bio-integrity: remove the needless fail handle of bip_slab creating block: include func name in __get_request prints block: make blk_update_request print prefix match ratelimited prefix blk-merge: don't compute bi_phys_segments from bi_vcnt for cloned bio block: fix alignment_offset math that assumes io_min is a power-of-2 blk-mq: Make bt_clear_tag() easier to read blk-mq: fix potential hang if rolling wakeup depth is too high block: add bioset_create_nobvec() block: use bio_clone_fast() in blk_rq_prep_clone() block: misplaced rq_complete tracepoint sd: Honor block layer integrity handling flags block: Replace strnicmp with strncasecmp block: Add T10 Protection Information functions block: Don't merge requests if integrity flags differ block: Integrity checksum flag block: Relocate bio integrity flags block: Add a disk flag to block integrity profile block: Add prefix to block integrity profile flags ...

Pull MTD update from Brian Norris: "Sorry for delaying this a bit later than usual. There's one mild regression from 3.16 that was noticed during the 3.17 cycle, and I meant to send a fix for it along with this pull request. I'll probably try to queue it up for a later pull request once I've had a better look at it, hopefully by -rc2 at the latest. Summary for this pull: NAND - Cleanup for Denali driver - Atmel: add support for new page sizes - Atmel: fix up 'raw' mode support - Atmel: miscellaneous cleanups - New timing mode helpers for non-ONFI NAND - OMAP: allow driver to be (properly) built as a module - bcm47xx: RESET support and other cleanups SPI NOR - Miscellaneous cleanups, to prepare framework for wider use (some further work still pending) - Compile-time configuration to select 4K vs. 64K support for flash that support both (necessary for using UBIFS on some SPI NOR) A few scattered code quality fixes, detected by Coverity See the changesets for more" * tag 'for-linus-20141015' of git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd: (59 commits) mtd: nand: omap: Correct CONFIG_MTD_NAND_OMAP_BCH help message mtd: nand: Force omap_elm to be built as a module if omap2_nand is a module mtd: move support for struct flash_platform_data into m25p80 mtd: spi-nor: add Kconfig option to disable 4K sectors mtd: nand: Move ELM driver and rename as omap_elm nand: omap2: Replace pr_err with dev_err nand: omap2: Remove horrible ifdefs to fix module probe mtd: nand: add Hynix's H27UCG8T2ATR-BC to nand_ids table mtd: nand: support ONFI timing mode retrieval for non-ONFI NANDs mtd: physmap_of: Add non-obsolete map_rom probe mtd: physmap_of: Fix ROM support via OF MAINTAINERS: add l2-mtd.git, 'next' tree for MTD mtd: denali: fix indents and other trivial things mtd: denali: remove unnecessary parentheses mtd: denali: remove another set-but-unused variable mtd: denali: fix include guard and license block of denali.h mtd: nand: don't break long print messages mtd: bcm47xxnflash: replace some magic numbers mtd: bcm47xxnflash: NAND_CMD_RESET support mtd: bcm47xxnflash: add cmd_ctrl handler ...

CR4 isn't constant; at least the TSD and PCE bits can vary. TBH, treating CR0 and CR3 as constant scares me a bit, too, but it looks like it's correct. This adds a branch and a read from cr4 to each vm entry. Because it is extremely likely that consecutive entries into the same vcpu will have the same host cr4 value, this fixes up the vmcs instead of restoring cr4 after the fact. A subsequent patch will add a kernel-wide cr4 shadow, reducing the overhead in the common case to just two memory reads and a branch.

Commit b0c29f79 (futexes: Avoid taking the hb->lock if there's nothing to wake up) changes the futex code to avoid taking a lock when there are no waiters. This code has been subsequently fixed in commit 11d4616b (futex: revert back to the explicit waiter counting code). Both the original commit and the fix-up rely on get_futex_key_refs() to always imply a barrier. However, for private futexes, none of the cases in the switch statement of get_futex_key_refs() would be hit and the function completes without a memory barrier as required before checking the "waiters" in futex_wake() -> hb_waiters_pending(). The consequence is a race with a thread waiting on a futex on another CPU, allowing the waker thread to read "waiters == 0" while the waiter thread to have read "futex_val == locked" (in kernel). Without this fix, the problem (user space deadlocks) can be seen with Android bionic's mutex implementation on an arm64 multi-cluster system.

skb->truesize is not meant to be tracking amount of used bytes in an skb, but amount of reserved/consumed bytes in memory. For instance, if we use a single byte in last page fragment, we have to account the full size of the fragment. skb->truesize can be very different from skb->len, that has a very specific safety purpose.

Commit b4d2394d ("dsa: Replace mii_bus with a generic host device") replaces mii_bus with a generic host_dev, and introduces dsa_host_dev_to_mii_bus() to support conversion from host_dev to mii_bus. However, in some cases it uses to_mii_bus to perform that conversion. Since host_dev is not the phy bus device but typically a platform device, this fails and results in a crash with the affected drivers.

In commit ec8a2e56 ("tipc: same receive code path for connection protocol and data messages") we omitted the the possiblilty that an arriving message extracted from a bundle buffer may be a multicast message. Such messages need to be to be delivered to the socket via a separate function, tipc_sk_mcast_rcv(). As a result, small multicast messages arriving as members of a bundle buffer will be silently dropped. This commit corrects the error by considering this case in the function tipc_link_bundle_rcv().

Commit 971f10ec ("tcp: better TCP_SKB_CB layout to reduce cache line misses") added a regression for SO_BINDTODEVICE on IPv6. This is because we still use inet6_iif() which expects that IP6 control block is still at the beginning of skb->cb[] This patch adds tcp_v6_iif() helper and uses it where necessary. Because __inet6_lookup_skb() is used by TCP and DCCP, we add an iif parameter to it.

Pravin B Shelar authored
If megaflows are disabled, the userspace does not send the netlink attribute OVS_FLOW_ATTR_MASK, and the kernel must create an exact match mask. sw_flow_mask_set() sets every bytes (in 'range') of the mask to 0xff, even the bytes that represent padding for struct sw_flow, or the bytes that represent fields that may not be set during ovs_flow_extract(). This is a problem, because when we extract a flow from a packet, we do not memset() anymore the struct sw_flow to 0. This commit gets rid of sw_flow_mask_set() and introduces mask_set_nlattr(), which operates on the netlink attributes rather than on the mask key. Using this approach we are sure that only the bytes that the user provided in the flow are matched. Also, if the parse_flow_mask_nlattrs() for the mask ENCAP attribute fails, we now return with an error.

Matthew provides two fixes for fm10k, first sets the flag to fetch the host state before kicking off the service task that reads the host state when bringing the interface up. The second makes sure that we release the mailbox lock after detecting an error and before we return the error code. Andy Zhou provides a compile fix for fm10k, when the driver is compiled into the kernel and the VXLAN driver is compiled as a module.
