Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell. 2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup, from Cong WANG. 3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also from Cong WANG. 4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel. 5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the user socket. So this leads to cases where we retraverse the ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address family (f.e. AF_PACKET). This can cause things to crash since the ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were an ipv4 one. The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing xmit_recursion. Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive for 'net' and -stable. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from Cong WANG. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net/mlx4_core: Fix error message deprecation for ConnectX-2 cards net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description l2tp: unregister l2tp_net_ops on failure path mvneta: dont call mvneta_adjust_link() manually ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack netns: don't allocate an id for dead netns Revert "netns: don't clear nsid too early on removal" ip6mr: call del_timer_sync() in ip6mr_free_table() net: move fib_rules_unregister() under rtnl lock ipv4: take rtnl_lock and mark mrt table as freed on namespace cleanup tcp: fix FRTO undo on cumulative ACK of SACKed range xen-netfront: transmit fully GSO-sized packets
2015-04-06net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF descriptionPavel Nakonechny
According to description in 'include/net/dsa.h', in cascade switches configurations where there are more than one interconnected devices, 'rtable' array in 'dsa_chip_data' structure is used to indicate which port on this switch should be used to send packets to that are destined for corresponding switch. However, dsa_of_setup_routing_table() fills 'rtable' with port numbers of the _target_ switch, but not current one. This commit removes redundant devicetree parsing and adds needed port number as a function argument. So dsa_of_setup_routing_table() now just looks for target switch number by parsing parent of 'link' device node. To remove possible misunderstandings with the way of determining target switch number, a corresponding comment was added to the source code and to the DSA device tree bindings documentation file. This was tested on a custom board with two Marvell 88E6095 switches with following corresponding routing tables: { -1, 10 } and { 8, -1 }.

2015-04-03x86/mm/KASLR: Propagate KASLR status to kernel properBorislav Petkov
Commit: e2b32e678513 ("x86, kaslr: randomize module base load address") made module base address randomization unconditional and didn't regard disabled KKASLR due to CONFIG_HIBERNATION and command line option "nokaslr". For more info see (now reverted) commit: f47233c2d34f ("x86/mm/ASLR: Propagate base load address calculation") In order to propagate KASLR status to kernel proper, we need a single bit in boot_params.hdr.loadflags and we've chosen bit 1 thus leaving the top-down allocated bits for bits supposed to be used by the bootloader.

2015-03-31KVM: s390: migrate vcpu interrupt stateJens Freimann
This patch adds support to migrate vcpu interrupts. Two new vcpu ioctls are added which get/set the complete status of pending interrupts in one go. The ioctls are marked as available with the new capability KVM_CAP_S390_IRQ_STATE. We can not use a ONEREG, as the number of pending local interrupts is not constant and depends on the number of CPUs. To retrieve the interrupt state we add an ioctl KVM_S390_GET_IRQ_STATE. Its input parameter is a pointer to a struct kvm_s390_irq_state which has a buffer and length. For all currently pending interrupts, we copy a struct kvm_s390_irq into the buffer and pass it to userspace. To store interrupt state into a buffer provided by userspace, we add an ioctl KVM_S390_SET_IRQ_STATE. It passes a struct kvm_s390_irq_state into the kernel and injects all interrupts contained in the buffer.

Now that the code is in place for KVM to support MIPS SIMD Architecutre (MSA) in MIPS guests, wire up the new KVM_CAP_MIPS_MSA capability. For backwards compatibility, the capability must be explicitly enabled in order to detect or make use of MSA from the guest. The capability is not supported if the hardware supports MSA vector partitioning, since the extra support cannot be tested yet and it extends the state that the userland program would have to save.

The MSA vector registers use the same register numbers as the FPU registers except with a different size (128bits). Since MSA depends on Status.FR=1, these registers are inaccessible when Status.FR=0. These registers are returned as a single native endian 128bit value, rather than least significant half first with each 64-bit half native endian as the kernel uses internally.

Only supported bits can be written, to minimise the chances of the guest being given a configuration from e.g. QEMU that is inconsistent with that being emulated, and as such the handling is in trap_emul.c as it may need to be different for VZ. Currently the only modification permitted is to make Config4 and Config5 exist via the M bits, but other bits will be added for FPU and MSA support in future patches. Care should be taken by userland not to change bits without fully handling the possible extra state that may then exist and which the guest may begin to use and depend on.

Currently there are only two "tools" that can be specified by a multi-touch driver: MT_TOOL_FINGER and MT_TOOL_PEN. In working with Elan (The touch vendor) and discussing their next-gen devices it seems that it will be useful to have more tools so that their devices can give the upper layers of the stack hints as to what is touching the sensor. In particular they have new experimental firmware that can better differentiate between palms vs fingertips and would like to plumb a patch so that we can use their hints in higher-level gesture soft- ware. The firmware on the device can reasonably do a better job of palm detection because it has access to all of the raw sensor readings as opposed to just the width/pressure/etc that are exposed by the driver. As such, the firmware can characterize what a palm looks like in much finer-grained detail and this change would allow such a device to share its findings with the kernel.

2015-03-17KVM: s390: introduce post handlers for STSIEkaterina Tumanova
The Store System Information (STSI) instruction currently collects all information it relays to the caller in the kernel. Some information, however, is only available in user space. An example of this is the guest name: The kernel always sets "KVMGuest", but user space knows the actual guest name. This patch introduces a new exit, KVM_EXIT_S390_STSI, guarded by a capability that can be enabled by user space if it wants to be able to insert such data. User space will be provided with the target buffer and the requested STSI function code.

2015-03-17KVM: s390: Add MEMOP ioctls for reading/writing guest memoryThomas Huth
On s390, we've got to make sure to hold the IPTE lock while accessing logical memory. So let's add an ioctl for reading and writing logical memory to provide this feature for userspace, too. The maximum transfer size of this call is limited to 64kB to prevent that the guest can trigger huge copy_from/to_user transfers. QEMU currently only requests up to one or two pages so far, so 16*4kB seems to be a reasonable limit here.

2015-03-14arm/arm64: KVM: export VCPU power state via MP_STATE ioctlAlex Bennée
To cleanly restore an SMP VM we need to ensure that the current pause state of each vcpu is correctly recorded. Things could get confused if the CPU starts running after migration restore completes when it was paused before it state was captured. We use the existing KVM_GET/SET_MP_STATE ioctl to do this. The arm/arm64 interface is a lot simpler as the only valid states are KVM_MP_STATE_RUNNABLE and KVM_MP_STATE_STOPPED.

2015-03-12KVM: arm/arm64: add irqfd supportEric Auger
This patch enables irqfd on arm/arm64. Both irqfd and resamplefd are supported. Injection is implemented in vgic.c without routing. This patch enables CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_EVENTFD and CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD. KVM_CAP_IRQFD is now advertised. KVM_CAP_IRQFD_RESAMPLE capability automatically is advertised as soon as CONFIG_HAVE_KVM_IRQFD is set. Irqfd injection is restricted to SPI. The rationale behind not supporting PPI irqfd injection is that any device using a PPI would be a private-to-the-CPU device (timer for instance), so its state would have to be context-switched along with the VCPU and would require in-kernel wiring anyhow. It is not a relevant use case for irqfds.

Fixed behaviour of get_mctrl() serial driver function as documented in: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/serial/driver Added device-tree properties 'dcd-override', 'dsr-override', 'cts-override', and 'ri-override' specific to the Synopsis 8250 DesignWare UART driver. Allows one to force Data Carrier Detect, Clear To Send, and Data Set Ready signals to permanently be reported as active. The Ring indicator can be forced to be reported as inactive. It is possible that if modem control signalling is enabled on a port that doesn't have these pins (e.g. - a simple two wire Tx/Rx port), the driver can hang indefinitely waiting for the state to change. The new DT properties allow the driver to ignore the state of these pins on serial ports that don't support them, as recommended in the kernel documentation.

However, on at91 a timer IRQ is shared with some other devices (including system wakeup ones) and that leads to the unusual combination of flags in question.
