Update of TLB shootdown code for UV3. Kernel function native_flush_tlb_others() calls uv_flush_tlb_others() on UV to invalidate tlb page definitions on remote cpus. The UV systems have a hardware 'broadcast assist unit' which can be used to broadcast shootdown messages to all cpu's of selected nodes. The behavior of the BAU has changed only slightly with UV3: - UV3 is recognized with is_uv3_hub(). - UV2 functions and structures (uv2_xxx) are in most cases simply renamed to uv2_3_xxx. - Some UV2 error workarounds are not needed for UV3.

The value of n_lshift for UV is currently set based on the socket m_val. For UV3, set the n_lshift value based on the GAM_GR_CONFIG MMR. This will allow bios to control the n_lshift value independent of the socket m_val. Then n_lshift can be assigned a fixed value across a multi-partition system, allowing for a fixed common global physical address format that is independent of socket m_val. Cleanup unneeded macros.

Pull x86 LTO changes from Peter Anvin: "More infrastructure work in preparation for link-time optimization (LTO). Most of these changes is to make sure symbols accessed from assembly code are properly marked as visible so the linker doesn't remove them. My understanding is that the changes to support LTO are still not upstream in binutils, but are on the way there.

It its possible to configure your PAM stack to refuse login if audit messages (about the login) were unable to be sent. This is common in many distros and thus normal configuration of many containers. The PAM modules determine if audit is enabled/disabled in the kernel based on the return value from sending an audit message on the netlink socket. If userspace gets back ECONNREFUSED it believes audit is disabled in the kernel. If it gets any other error else it refuses to let the login proceed. Just about ever since the introduction of namespaces the kernel audit subsystem has returned EPERM if the task sending a message was not in the init user or pid namespace. So many forms of containers have never worked if audit was enabled in the kernel. BUT if the container was not in net_init then the kernel network code would send ECONNREFUSED (instead of the audit code sending EPERM). Thus by pure accident/dumb luck/bug if an admin configured the PAM stack to reject all logins that didn't talk to audit, but then ran the login untility in the non-init_net namespace, it would work!! Clearly this was a bug, but it is a bug some people expected. With the introduction of network namespace support in 3.14-rc1 the two bugs stopped cancelling each other out. Now, containers in the non-init_net namespace refused to let users log in (just like PAM was configfured!) Obviously some people were not happy that what used to let users log in, now didn't! This fix is kinda hacky. We return ECONNREFUSED for all non-init relevant namespaces. That means that not only will the old broken non-init_net setups continue to work, now the broken non-init_pid or non-init_user setups will 'work'. They don't really work, since audit isn't logging things. But it's what most users want. In 3.15 we should have patches to support not only the non-init_net (3.14) namespace but also the non-init_pid and non-init_user namespace. So all will be right in the world. This just opens the doors wide open on 3.14 and hopefully makes users happy, if not the audit system...

If a new (id == -1) ff effect was uploaded from userspace, ff-core.c::input_ff_upload() will have assigned a positive number to the new effect id. Currently, evdev.c::evdev_do_ioctl() will save this new id to userspace, regardless of whether the upload succeeded or not. On upload failure, this can be confusing because the dev->ff->effects[] array will not contain an element at the index of that new effect id. This patch fixes this by leaving the id unchanged after upload fails. Note: Unfortunately applications should still expect changed effect id for quite some time. This has been discussed on: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-input@vger.kernel.org/msg08513.html ("ff-core effect id handling in case of a failed effect upload") Suggested-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Elias Vanderstuyft <elias.vds@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Dmitry Torokhov <dmitry.torokhov@gmail.com>

Olivier Bonvalet reported having repeated crashes due to a failed assertion he was hitting in rbd_img_obj_callback(): Assertion failure in rbd_img_obj_callback() at line 2165: rbd_assert(which >= img_request->next_completion); With a lot of help from Olivier with reproducing the problem we were able to determine the object and image requests had already been completed (and often freed) at the point the assertion failed. There was a great deal of discussion on the ceph-devel mailing list about this. The problem only arose when there were two (or more) object requests in an image request, and the problem was always seen when the second request was being completed. The problem is due to a race in the window between setting the "done" flag on an object request and checking the image request's next completion value. When the first object request completes, it checks to see if its successor request is marked "done", and if so, that request is also completed. In the process, the image request's next_completion value is updated to reflect that both the first and second requests are completed. By the time the second request is able to check the next_completion value, it has been set to a value *greater* than its own "which" value, which caused an assertion to fail. Fix this problem by skipping over any completion processing unless the completing object request is the next one expected. Test only for inequality (not >=), and eliminate the bad assertion.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) We've discovered a common error in several networking drivers, they put VLAN offload features into ->vlan_features, which would suggest that they support offloading 2 or more levels of VLAN encapsulation. Not only do these devices not do that, but we don't have the infrastructure yet to handle that at all. Fixes from Vlad Yasevich. 2) Fix tcpdump crash with bridging and vlans, also from Vlad. 3) Some MAINTAINERS updates for random32 and bonding. 4) Fix late reseeds of prandom generator, from Sasha Levin. 5) Bridge doesn't handle stacked vlans properly, fix from Toshiaki Makita. 6) Fix deadlock in openvswitch, from Flavio Leitner. 7) get_timewait4_sock() doesn't report delay times correctly, fix from Eric Dumazet. 8) Duplicate address detection and addrconf verification need to run in contexts where RTNL can be obtained. Move them to run from a workqueue. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 9) Fix route refcount leaking in ip tunnels, from Pravin B Shelar. 10) Don't return -EINTR from non-blocking recvmsg() on AF_UNIX sockets, from Eric Dumazet. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (28 commits) vlan: Warn the user if lowerdev has bad vlan features. veth: Turn off vlan rx acceleration in vlan_features ifb: Remove vlan acceleration from vlan_features qlge: Do not propaged vlan tag offloads to vlans bridge: Fix crash with vlan filtering and tcpdump net: Account for all vlan headers in skb_mac_gso_segment MAINTAINERS: bonding: change email address MAINTAINERS: bonding: change email address ipv6: move DAD and addrconf_verify processing to workqueue tcp: fix get_timewait4_sock() delay computation on 64bit openvswitch: fix a possible deadlock and lockdep warning bridge: Fix handling stacked vlan tags bridge: Fix inabillity to retrieve vlan tags when tx offload is disabled vhost: validate vhost_get_vq_desc return value vhost: fix total length when packets are too short random32: avoid attempt to late reseed if in the middle of seeding random32: assign to network folks in MAINTAINERS net/mlx4_core: pass pci_device_id.driver_data to __mlx4_init_one during reset core, nfqueue, openvswitch: Orphan frags in skb_zerocopy and handle errors vlan: Set hard_header_len according to available acceleration ...

Vlad Yasevich says: ==================== Audit all drivers for correct vlan_features. Some drivers set vlan acceleration features in vlan_features. This causes issues with Q-in-Q/802.1ad configurations. Audit all the drivers for correct vlan_features. Fix broken ones. Add a warning to vlan code to help catch future offenders. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

qlge driver turns off NETIF_F_HW_CTAG_FILTER, but forgets to turn off HW_CTAG_TX and HW_CTAG_RX on vlan devices. With the current settings, q-in-q will only generate a single vlan header. Remember to mask off CTAG_TX and CTAG_RX features in vlan_features.
