7a50a240c4 net/compat_ioctl: support SIOCWANDEV
This adds compat_ioctl support for SIOCWANDEV, which has
always been missing.

The definition of struct compat_ifreq was missing an
ifru_settings fields that is needed to support SIOCWANDEV,
so add that and clean up the whitespace damage in the
struct definition.

fab2532ba5 net, compat_ioctl: fix SIOCGMII ioctls
SIOCGMIIPHY and SIOCGMIIREG return data through ifreq,
so it needs to be converted on the way out as well.

SIOCGIFPFLAGS is unused, but has the same problem in theory.

a1ab77f97e ipv6: udp: Optimise multicast reception
IPV6 UDP multicast rx path is a bit complex and can hold a spinlock
for a long time.

Using a small (32 or 64 entries) stack of socket pointers can help
to perform expensive operations (skb_clone(), udp_queue_rcv_skb())
outside of the lock, in most cases.

fddc17defa ipv6: udp: optimize unicast RX path
We first locate the (local port) hash chain head
If few sockets are in this chain, we proceed with previous lookup algo.

If too many sockets are listed, we take a look at the secondary
(port, address) hash chain.

We choose the shortest chain and proceed with a RCU lookup on the elected chain.

But, if we chose (port, address) chain, and fail to find a socket on given address,
 we must try another lookup on (port, in6addr_any) chain to find sockets not bound
to a particular IP.

-> No extra cost for typical setups, where the first lookup will probabbly
be performed.

RCU lookups everywhere, we dont acquire spinlock.

512615b6b8 udp: secondary hash on (local port, local address)
Extends udp_table to contain a secondary hash table.

socket anchor for this second hash is free, because UDP
doesnt use skc_bind_node : We define an union to hold
both skc_bind_node & a new hlist_nulls_node udp_portaddr_node

udp_lib_get_port() inserts sockets into second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

udp_lib_unhash() deletes socket from second hash chain
(additional cost of one atomic op)

Note : No spinlock lockdep annotation is needed, because
lock for the secondary hash chain is always get after
lock for primary hash chain.

One 16 bits hash on (local port) value (the previous udp 'hash')

One 16 bits hash on (local address, local port) values, initialized

distribution.

Because the 'port' is xored later, a partial hash is performed
on local address + net_hash_mix(net)

The icache may also contain aliases so we must account for them just
like we do when manipulating the dcache. We usually get away with
aliases in the icache because the instructions that are read from memory
are read-only, i.e. they never change. However, the place where this
bites us is when the code has been modified.

0e1a6ef2de sysctl: require CAP_SYS_RAWIO to set mmap_min_addr
Currently the mmap_min_addr value can only be bypassed during mmap when
the task has CAP_SYS_RAWIO.  However, the mmap_min_addr sysctl value itself
can be adjusted to 0 if euid == 0, allowing a bypass without CAP_SYS_RAWIO.
This patch adds a check for the capability before allowing mmap_min_addr to

Commit 6487a9d was an attempt some buffer head leaks in an ENOSPC
error path, but in some cases it actually results in an excess ENOSPC,
as shown above.  Fixing this means cleaning up who is responsible for
releasing the buffer heads from the callee to the caller of
add_dirent_to_buf().

Since that's a relatively complex change, and we're late in the rcX
development cycle, I'm reverting this now, and holding back a more
complete fix until after 2.6.32 ships.  We've lived with this
buffer_head leak on ENOSPC in ext3 and ext4 for a very long time; a
few more months won't kill us.

91284224da pcmcia: add new CIS access helpers
As a replacement to pcmcia_get_{first,next}_tuple() and
pcmcia_get_tuple_data(), three new -- and easier to use --
functions are added:

- pcmcia_get_tuple() to get the very first CIS entry of one
  type.

- pcmcia_loop_tuple() to loop over all CIS entries of one type.

- pcmcia_get_mac_from_cis() to read out the hardware MAC address
  from CISTPL_FUNCE.

Only a handful of drivers need these functions anyway, as most
CIS access is already handled by pcmcia_loop_config(), which
now shares the same backed (pccard_loop_tuple()) with
pcmcia_loop_tuple().

A pcmcia_get_mac_from_cis() bug noted by Komuro
<komurojun-mbn@nifty.com> has been fixed in this revision.

c10edee2e1 perf tools: Fix permission checks
The perf_event_open() system call returns EACCES if the user is
not root which results in a very confusing error message:

  $ perf record -A -a -f

    Error: perfcounter syscall returned with -1 (Permission denied)

    Fatal: No CONFIG_PERF_EVENTS=y kernel support configured?

It turns out that's because perf tools are checking only for
EPERM. Fix that up to get a much better error message:

  $ perf record -A -a -f
    Fatal: Permission error - are you root?

eb647138ac x86/PCI: Adjust GFP mask handling for coherent allocations
Rather than forcing GFP flags and DMA mask to be inconsistent,
GFP flags should be determined even for the fallback device
through dma_alloc_coherent_mask()/dma_alloc_coherent_gfp_flags().

This restores 64-bit behavior as it was prior to commits
8965eb1938 and
4a367f3a9d (not sure why there are
two of them), where GFP_DMA was forced on for 32-bit, but not
for 64-bit, with the slight adjustment that afaict even 32-bit
doesn't need this without CONFIG_ISA.

ba1c813a6b hw-breakpoints: Arbitrate access to pmu following registers constraints
Allow or refuse to build a counter using the breakpoints pmu following
given constraints.

We keep track of the pmu users by using three per cpu variables:

- nr_cpu_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned cpu breakpoints counters
  in the given cpu

- nr_bp_flexible stores the number of non-pinned breakpoints counters
  in the given cpu.

- task_bp_pinned stores the number of pinned task breakpoints in a cpu

The latter is not a simple counter but gathers the number of tasks that
have n pinned breakpoints.
Considering HBP_NUM the number of available breakpoint address
registers:
   task_bp_pinned[0] is the number of tasks having 1 breakpoint
   task_bp_pinned[1] is the number of tasks having 2 breakpoints
   [...]
   task_bp_pinned[HBP_NUM - 1] is the number of tasks having the
   maximum number of registers (HBP_NUM).

When a breakpoint counter is created and wants an access to the pmu,
we evaluate the following constraints:

== Non-pinned counter ==

- If attached to a single cpu, check:

    (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) || (per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu)
         + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu)))) < HBP_NUM

       -> If there are already non-pinned counters in this cpu, it
          means there is already a free slot for them.
          Otherwise, we check that the maximum number of per task
          breakpoints (for this cpu) plus the number of per cpu
          breakpoint (for this cpu) doesn't cover every registers.

- If attached to every cpus, check:

    (per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) || (max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *))
           + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *)))) < HBP_NUM

       -> This is roughly the same, except we check the number of per
          cpu bp for every cpu and we keep the max one. Same for the
          per tasks breakpoints.

== Pinned counter ==

- If attached to a single cpu, check:

       ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, cpu) > 1)
            + per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, cpu)
            + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, cpu))) < HBP_NUM

       -> Same checks as before. But now the nr_bp_flexible, if any,
          must keep one register at least (or flexible breakpoints will
          never be be fed).

- If attached to every cpus, check:

      ((per_cpu(nr_bp_flexible, *) > 1)
           + max(per_cpu(nr_cpu_bp_pinned, *))
           + max(per_cpu(task_bp_pinned, *))) < HBP_NUM

Changes in v2:

- Counter -> event rename

Changes in v5:

- Fix unreleased non-pinned task-bound-only counters. We only released
  it in the first cpu. (Thanks to Paul Mackerras for reporting that)

Changes in v6:

- Currently, events scheduling are done in this order: cpu context
  pinned + cpu context non-pinned + task context pinned + task context
  non-pinned events. Then our current constraints are right theoretically
  but not in practice, because non-pinned counters may be scheduled
  before we can apply every possible pinned counters. So consider
  non-pinned counters as pinned for now.

24f1e32c60 hw-breakpoints: Rewrite the hw-breakpoints layer on top of perf events
This patch rebase the implementation of the breakpoints API on top of
perf events instances.

Each breakpoints are now perf events that handle the
register scheduling, thread/cpu attachment, etc..

The new layering is now made as follows:

       ptrace       kgdb      ftrace   perf syscall
          \          |          /         /
           \         |         /         /
                                        /
            Core breakpoint API        /
                                      /
                     |               /
                     |              /

              Breakpoints perf events

                     |
                     |

               Breakpoints PMU ---- Debug Register constraints handling
                                    (Part of core breakpoint API)
                     |
                     |

             Hardware debug registers

Reasons of this rewrite:

- Use the centralized/optimized pmu registers scheduling,
  implying an easier arch integration
- More powerful register handling: perf attributes (pinned/flexible
  events, exclusive/non-exclusive, tunable period, etc...)

Impact:

- New perf ABI: the hardware breakpoints counters
- Ptrace breakpoints setting remains tricky and still needs some per
  thread breakpoints references.

Todo (in the order):

- Support breakpoints perf counter events for perf tools (ie: implement
  perf_bpcounter_event())
- Support from perf tools

Changes in v2:

- Follow the perf "event " rename
- The ptrace regression have been fixed (ptrace breakpoint perf events
  weren't released when a task ended)
- Drop the struct hw_breakpoint and store generic fields in
  perf_event_attr.
- Separate core and arch specific headers, drop
  asm-generic/hw_breakpoint.h and create linux/hw_breakpoint.h
- Use new generic len/type for breakpoint
- Handle off case: when breakpoints api is not supported by an arch

Changes in v3:

- Fix broken CONFIG_KVM, we need to propagate the breakpoint api
  changes to kvm when we exit the guest and restore the bp registers
  to the host.

Changes in v4:

- Drop the hw_breakpoint_restore() stub as it is only used by KVM
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL hw_breakpoint_restore() as KVM can be built as a
  module
- Restore the breakpoints unconditionally on kvm guest exit:
  TIF_DEBUG_THREAD doesn't anymore cover every cases of running
  breakpoints and vcpu->arch.switch_db_regs might not always be
  set when the guest used debug registers.
  (Waiting for a reliable optimization)

Changes in v5:

- Split-up the asm-generic/hw-breakpoint.h moving to
  linux/hw_breakpoint.h into a separate patch
- Optimize the breakpoints restoring while switching from kvm guest
  to host. We only want to restore the state if we have active
  breakpoints to the host, otherwise we don't care about messed-up
  address registers.
- Add asm/hw_breakpoint.h to Kbuild
- Fix bad breakpoint type in trace_selftest.c

Changes in v6:

- Fix wrong header inclusion in trace.h (triggered a build
  error with CONFIG_FTRACE_SELFTEST

338bac527e x86: Use x86_platform for iommu_shutdown
This patch cleans up pci_iommu_shutdown() a bit to use
x86_platform (similar to how IA64 initializes an IOMMU driver).

This adds iommu_shutdown() to x86_platform to avoid calling
every IOMMUs' shutdown functions in pci_iommu_shutdown() in
order. The IOMMU shutdown functions are platform specific (we
don't have multiple different IOMMU hardware) so the current way
is pointless.

An IOMMU driver sets x86_platform.iommu_shutdown to the shutdown
function if necessary.
