| | * | | NFC: Add firmware upload netlink commandEric Lapuyade2013-06-14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As several NFC chipsets can have their firmwares upgraded and reflashed, this patchset adds a new netlink command to trigger that the driver loads or flashes a new firmware. This will allows userspace triggered firmware upgrade through netlink. The firmware name or hint is passed as a parameter, and the driver will eventually fetch the firmware binary through the request_firmware API. The cmd can only be executed when the nfc dev is not in use. Actual firmware loading/flashing is an asynchronous operation. Result of the operation shall send a new event up to user space through the nfc dev multicast socket. During operation, the nfc dev is not openable and thus not usable.

| | | * | cfg80211: separate internal SME implementationJohannes Berg2013-06-04

There are three things that the implementation has to provide: * a basic SME implementation for nl80211's connect() call (for drivers implementing auth/assoc, which is really just mac80211) and wireless extensions * MLME events for the userspace SME * SME events (connected, disconnected etc.) for all different SME implementation possibilities (driver, cfg80211 and userspace) To achieve these goals it isn't necessary to track the software SME's connection status outside of it's state (which is the part that caused many issues.) Instead, track it only in the SME data (wdev->conn) and in the general case only track whether the wdev is connected or not (via wdev->current_bss.) Also separate the internal implementation to not have callbacks from the SME events, but rather call it from the API functions that the driver (or rather mac80211) calls. This separates the code better. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Most of these functions get a frame passed, and there isn't really any reason to export multiple functions as cfg80211 can check the frame type instead, do that. Additionally, the API functions have confusing names like cfg80211_send_...() which was meant to indicate that it sends an event to userspace, but gets a bit confusing when there's both TX and RX and they're not all clearly labeled.

* | | | net: sock: adapt SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUFDaniel Borkmann2013-06-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current situation is that SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF is 2048 + sizeof(struct sk_buff)) while SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF is 2048. Since in both cases, skb->truesize is used for sk_{r,w}mem_alloc accounting, we should have both sizes adjusted via defining a TCP_SKB_MIN_TRUESIZE. Further, as Eric Dumazet points out, the minimal skb truesize in transmit path is SKB_TRUESIZE(2048) after commit f07d960df33c5 ("tcp: avoid frag allocation for small frames"), and tcp_sendmsg() tries to limit skb size to half the congestion window, meaning we try to build two skbs at minimum. Thus, having SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF as 2048 can hit a small regression for some applications setting to low SO_SNDBUF / SO_RCVBUF. Note that we define a TCP_SKB_MIN_TRUESIZE, because SKB_TRUESIZE(2048) adds SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)), but in case of TCP skbs, the skb_shared_info is part of the 2048 bytes allocation for skb->head. The minor adaption in sk_stream_moderate_sndbuf() is to silence a warning by using a typed max macro, as similarly done in SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF occurences, that would appear otherwise.

The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Once started getting pulled into linux-next, it got a bit more attention and a number of improvements were made over the initial cut. No doubt there will be more changes ahead, but I think it is looking alright at this point. Along with that, there is the usual flurry of updates to the mac80211 core and the iwlwifi, mwifiex, ath9k, rt2x00, wil6210, and other drivers. A few of the highlights are some rt2x00 refactoring/cleanup by Gabor Juhos, some rt2800 hardware support enhancements by Stanislaw Gruszka, some iwlwifi power management updates from Alexander Bondar, some enhanced bcma SPROM support from Rafał Miłecki, and a variety of other things here and there. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

| | * | | | cfg80211: vastly simplify lockingJohannes Berg2013-05-25

As such, there's little point in having another four mutexes for various parts of the code, they just cause lock ordering issues (and much of the time, the RTNL and a few of the others need thus be held.) Simplify all this by getting rid of the extra four mutexes and just use the RTNL throughout. Only a few code changes were needed to do this and we can get rid of a work struct for bonus points.

Add a new gnet_stats_rate_est64 structure to get 64bit bps/pps fields, and switch the kernel to use this structure natively. This structure is dumped to user space as a new attribute : TCA_STATS_RATE_EST64 Old tc command will now display the capped bps (to 34360Mbit), instead of wrapped values, and updated tc command will display correct information. Old tc command output, after patch : eric:~# tc -s -d qd sh dev lo qdisc pfifo 8001: root refcnt 2 limit 1000p Sent 80868245400 bytes 1978837 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) rate 34360Mbit 189696pps backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 This patch carefully reorganizes "struct Qdisc" layout to get optimal performance on SMP.
