ixbge: fix bug when using large pages and jumbo frames
it was pointed out on the list that ixgbe was failing when using 64kB pages
and large 16kB MTU.
since with a 64kB PAGE_SIZE MAX_SKB_FRAGS = 3, the way the driver was
configuring page usage was assuming 2kB is half a page, and was only
ever dmaing that much data to a half page.
(16kB - header size) / 2048 = 7 or 8 pages, which would far exceed 3
adjust the driver to account for these large pages, the hardware can
support DMA to up to 16kB for each descriptor.

The ring_feature member of ixgbe_adapter is statically allocated based on

The network devices are removed from a network namespace and their

It turns out icmp_init is using register_pernet_device instead

The problem was that object_set_to_gpu_domain would set the new write_domains

for all the objects in preparation for this batchbuffer were posted, and the
brand new write domain would get cleared by the flush being posted. Instead,
hang on to the new (or old if we're not changing it) value and set it after
the flush is queued.
Results from this noticably included conformance test failures from reads

netns: fix double free at netns creation

The previous code does a kfree of the net_generic structure when

The caller, 'copy_net_ns', call net_free on error, and this one

tcp: Always set urgent pointer if it's beyond snd_nxt
Our TCP stack does not set the urgent flag if the urgent pointer
does not fit in 16 bits, i.e., if it is more than 64K from the
sequence number of a packet.
This behaviour is different from the BSDs, and clearly contradicts
the purpose of urgent mode, which is to send the notification
(though not necessarily the associated data) as soon as possible.
Our current behaviour may in fact delay the urgent notification
indefinitely if the receiver window does not open up.
Simply matching BSD however may break legacy applications which
incorrectly rely on the out-of-band delivery of urgent data, and
conversely the in-band delivery of non-urgent data.
Alexey Kuznetsov suggested a safe solution of following BSD only
if the urgent pointer itself has not yet been transmitted. This
way we guarantee that when the remote end sees the packet with
non-urgent data marked as urgent due to wrap-around we would have
advanced the urgent pointer beyond, either to the actual urgent
data or to an as-yet untransmitted packet.
The only potential downside is that applications on the remote
end may see multiple SIGURG notifications. However, this would
occur anyway with other TCP stacks. More importantly, the outcome
of such a duplicate notification is likely to be harmless since
the signal itself does not carry any information other than the
fact that we're in urgent mode.

etherh: Get working again.
Further to
a71558d, this is round five of fixes to make etherh work
again. As mainline kernels stand, the fixes in
b9a9b4b were the wrong
approach.
The 8390 driver was structured by Al Viro to allow the flexibility required
by platforms. lib8390.c contains the core code which drivers explicitly
include:
- 8390.c includes lib8390.c to provide the standard ISA based driver.
- etherh.c includes it with the accessors defined for RiscPC platforms,
where it is addressed via the MMIO accessors with a device dependent
register spacing.
Other platform drivers do something similar.
However,
b9a9b4b caused the kernel to contain not only the etherh private
build of lib8390 (included in etherh.c) but also lib8390.c itself, and
referred the new net_device_ops methods to the ISA version. The result
of this is is not pretty:

The rfkill_supported bitmask is now used to avoid polling for rfkill at all in

PM: Fix suspend_console and resume_console to use only one semaphore
This fixes a race where a thread acquires the console while the
console is suspended, and the console is resumed before this
thread releases it. In this case, the secondary console
semaphore would be left locked, and the primary semaphore would
be released twice. This in turn would cause the console switch
on suspend or resume to hang forever.
Note that suspend_console does not actually lock the console
for clients that use acquire_console_sem, it only locks it for
clients that use try_acquire_console_sem. If we change
suspend_console to fully lock the console, then the kernel
may deadlock on suspend. One client of try_acquire_console_sem
is acquire_console_semaphore_for_printk, which uses it to
prevent printk from using the console while it is suspended.

PM/hibernate: fix "swap breaks after hibernation failures"
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12239
The image writing code dropped a reference to the current swap device.
This doesn't show up if the hibernation succeeds - because it doesn't
affect the image which gets resumed. But it means multiple _failed_
hibernations end up freeing the swap device while it is still use!
swsusp_write() finds the block device for the swap file using swap_type_of().
It then uses blkdev_get() / blkdev_put() to open and close the block device.
Unfortunately, blkdev_get() assumes ownership of the inode of the block_device
passed to it. So blkdev_put() calls iput() on the inode. This is by design
and other callers expect this behaviour. The fix is for swap_type_of() to take
a reference on the inode using bdget().

[CIFS] Fix oops in cifs_strfromUCS_le mounting to servers which do not specify their OS

Certain NAS appliances do not set the operating system or network operating system
fields in the session setup response on the wire. cifs was oopsing on the unexpected

8250: fix boot hang with serial console when using with Serial Over Lan port
Intel 8257x Ethernet boards have a feature called Serial Over Lan.
This feature works by emulating a serial port, and it is detected by
kernel as a normal 8250 port. However, this emulation is not perfect, as
also noticed on changeset
7500b1f602aad75901774a67a687ee985d85893f.
Before this patch, the kernel were trying to check if the serial TX is
capable of work using IRQ's.
This were done with a code similar this:
serial_outp(up, UART_IER, UART_IER_THRI);
lsr = serial_in(up, UART_LSR);
iir = serial_in(up, UART_IIR);
serial_outp(up, UART_IER, 0);
if (lsr & UART_LSR_TEMT && iir & UART_IIR_NO_INT)
up->bugs |= UART_BUG_TXEN;
This works fine for other 8250 ports, but, on 8250-emulated SoL port, the
chip is a little lazy to down UART_IIR_NO_INT at UART_IIR register.
Due to that, UART_BUG_TXEN is sometimes enabled. However, as TX IRQ keeps
working, and the TX polling is now enabled, the driver miss-interprets the
IRQ received later, hanging up the machine until a key is pressed at the
serial console.
This is the 6 version of this patch. Previous versions were trying to
introduce a large enough delay between serial_outp and serial_in(up,
UART_IIR), but not taking forever. However, the needed delay couldn't be
safely determined.
At the experimental tests, a delay of 1us solves most of the cases, but
still hangs sometimes. Increasing the delay to 5us was better, but still
doesn't solve. A very high delay of 50 ms seemed to work every time.
However, poking around with delays and pray for it to be enough doesn't
seem to be a good approach, even for a quirk.
So, instead of playing with random large arbitrary delays, let's just
disable UART_BUG_TXEN for all SoL ports.

slab: introduce kzfree()
kzfree() is a wrapper for kfree() that additionally zeroes the underlying
memory before releasing it to the slab allocator.
Currently there is code which memset()s the memory region of an object
before releasing it back to the slab allocator to make sure
security-sensitive data are really zeroed out after use.
These callsites can then just use kzfree() which saves some code, makes
users greppable and allows for a stupid destructor that isn't necessarily
aware of the actual object size.
