      tcp: v1 always send a quick ack when quickacks are enabled · 2251ae46
      Jon Maxwell authored 
      V1 of this patch contains Eric Dumazet's suggestion to move the per
dst RTAX_QUICKACK check into tcp_in_quickack_mode(). Thanks Eric.

I ran some tests and after setting the "ip route change quickack 1"
knob there were still many delayed ACKs sent. This occured
because when icsk_ack.quick=0 the !icsk_ack.pingpong value is
subsequently ignored as tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks both these
values. The condition for a quick ack to trigger requires
that both icsk_ack.quick != 0 and icsk_ack.pingpong=0. Currently
only icsk_ack.pingpong is controlled by the knob. But the
icsk_ack.quick value changes dynamically depending on heuristics.
The crux of the matter is that delayed acks still cannot be entirely
disabled even with the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst knob enabled. This
patch ensures that a quick ack is always sent when the RTAX_QUICKACK
per dst knob is turned on.

The "ip route change quickack 1" knob was recently added to enable
quickacks. It was modeled around the TCP_QUICKACK setsockopt() option.
This issue is that even with "ip route change quickack 1" enabled
we still see delayed ACKs under some conditions. It would be nice
to be able to completely disable delayed ACKs.

Here is an example:

# netstat -s|grep dela
    3 delayed acks sent

For all routes enable the knob

# ip route change quickack 1

Generate some traffic across a slow link and we still see the delayed
acks.

# netstat -s|grep dela
    106 delayed acks sent
    1 delayed acks further delayed because of locked socket

The issue is that both the "ip route change quickack 1" knob and
the TCP_QUICKACK option set the icsk_ack.pingpong variable to 0.
However at the business end in the __tcp_ack_snd_check() routine,
tcp_in_quickack_mode() checks that both icsk_ack.quick != 0
and icsk_ack.pingpong=0 in order to trigger a quickack. As
icsk_ack.quick is determined by heuristics it can be 0. When
that occurs the icsk_ack.pingpong value is ignored and a delayed
ACK is sent regardless.

This patch moves the RTAX_QUICKACK per dst check into the
tcp_in_quickack_mode() routine which ensures that a quickack is
always sent when the quickack knob is enabled for that dst.

      bridge: vlan: fix usage of vlan 0 and 4095 again · 462e1ead
      Nikolay Aleksandrov authored 
      Vlan ids 0 and 4095 were disallowed by commit:
8adff41c ("bridge: Don't use VID 0 and 4095 in vlan filtering")
but then the check was removed when vlan ranges were introduced by:
bdced7ef ("bridge: support for multiple vlans and vlan ranges in setlink and dellink requests")
So reintroduce the vlan range check.
Before patch:
[root@testvm ~]# bridge vlan add vid 0 dev eth0 master
(succeeds)
After Patch:
[root@testvm ~]# bridge vlan add vid 0 dev eth0 master

====================
pull request: bluetooth 2015-07-02

A couple of regressions crept in because of a patch to use proper list
APIs rather than manually reading & writing the next/prev pointers
(commit 835a6a2f). Turns out this was
masking a few bugs: a missing INIT_LIST_HEAD() call and incorrectly
using list_del() rather than list_del_init(). The two patches in this
set fix these, and it'd be nice they could still make it to 4.2-rc1 to
avoid new bug reports from users.

Please let me know if there are any issues pulling. Thanks.

      enic: fix issues in enic_poll · 25c14ef8
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan authored 
      In enic_poll, we clean tx and rx queues, when low latency busy socket polling
is happening, enic_poll will only clean tx queue. After cleaning tx, it should
return total budget for re-poll.

There is a small window between vnic_intr_unmask() and enic_poll_unlock_napi().
In this window if an irq occurs and napi is scheduled on different cpu, it tries
to acquire enic_poll_lock_napi() and fails. Unlock napi_poll before unmasking
the interrupt.

v2:
Do not change tx wonk done behaviour. Consider only rx work done for completing
napi.

      Pull init.h/module.h fragility fixes from Paul Gortmaker:
 "Fixup various init.h misuses that are fragile wrt code moving to
  module.h

  What started as a removal of no longer required include <linux/init.h>
  due to the earlier __cpuinit and __devinit removal led to the
  observation that some module specfic support was living in init.h
  itself, thus preventing the full removal from introducing compile
  regressions.

  This series includes a few final fixups needed prior to the relocation
  of the modular init code from <init.h> to <module.h>.  These are
  things that weren't easily categorized into any of the other previous
  series categories already requested for pull.

  That said, each fixup branch (including this one) is independent and
  there are no ordering constraints.  Only the final code relocation
  (which is NOT in this pull) requires that all my cleanup branches be
  merged first"

Pull module_platform_driver replacement from Paul Gortmaker:
 "Replace module_platform_driver with builtin_platform driver in non
  modules.

  We see an increasing number of non-modular drivers using
  modular_driver() type register functions.  There are several downsides
  to letting this continue unchecked:

   - The code can appear modular to a reader of the code, and they won't
     know if the code really is modular without checking the Makefile
     and Kconfig to see if compilation is governed by a bool or
     tristate.

   - Coders of drivers may be tempted to code up an __exit function that
     is never used, just in order to satisfy the required three args of
     the modular registration function.

   - Non-modular code ends up including the <module.h> which increases
     CPP overhead that they don't need.

   - It hinders us from performing better separation of the module init
     code and the generic init code.

  So here we introduce similar macros for builtin drivers.  Then we
  convert builtin drivers (controlled by a bool Kconfig) by making the
  following type of mapping:

    module_platform_driver()       --->  builtin_platform_driver()
    module_platform_driver_probe() --->  builtin_platform_driver_probe().

  The set of drivers that are converted here are just the ones that
  showed up as relying on an implicit include of <module.h> during a
  pending header cleanup.  So we convert them here vs adding an include
  of <module.h> to non-modular code to avoid compile fails.  Additonal
  conversions can be done asynchronously at any time.

  Once again, an unused module_exit function that is removed here
  appears in the diffstat as an outlier wrt all the other changes"
