cf778b00e9 net: reintroduce missing rcu_assign_pointer() calls
commit a9b3cd7f32 (rcu: convert uses of rcu_assign_pointer(x, NULL) to
RCU_INIT_POINTER) did a lot of incorrect changes, since it did a
complete conversion of rcu_assign_pointer(x, y) to RCU_INIT_POINTER(x,
y).

We miss needed barriers, even on x86, when y is not NULL.

ae641949df net: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE
net: Remove all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE

The macro LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE was ill-conceived.  It applies the
alignment to the sum of needed_headroom and needed_tailroom.  As
the amount that is then reserved for head room is needed_headroom
with alignment, this means that the tail room left may be too small.

This patch replaces all uses of LL_ALLOCATED_SPACE with the macro
LL_RESERVED_SPACE and direct reference to needed_tailroom.

This also fixes the problem with needed_headroom changing between
allocating the skb and reserving the head room.

f13d493d9c netpoll: Revert napi_poll fix for bonding driver
In an erlier patch I modified napi_poll so that devices with IFF_MASTER polled
the per_cpu list instead of the device list for napi.  I did this because the
bonding driver has no napi instances to poll, it instead expects to check the
slave devices napi instances, which napi_poll was unaware of.  Looking at this
more closely however, I now see this isn't strictly needed.  As the bond driver
poll_controller calls the slaves poll_controller via netpoll_poll_dev, which
recursively calls poll_napi on each slave, allowing those napi instances to get
serviced.  The earlier patch isn't at all harmfull, its just not needed, so lets
revert it to make the code cleaner.  Sorry for the noise,

990c3d6f9c bonding: Fix napi poll for bonding driver
Usually the netpoll path, when preforming a napi poll can get away with just
polling all the napi instances of the configured device.  Thats not the case for
the bonding driver however, as the napi instances which may wind up getting
flagged as needing polling after the poll_controller call don't belong to the
bonded device, but rather to the slave devices.  Fix this by checking the device
in question for the IFF_MASTER flag, if set, we know we need to check the full
poll list for this cpu, rather than just the devices napi instance list.

c2355e1ab9 bonding: Fix bonding drivers improper modification of netpoll structure
The bonding driver currently modifies the netpoll structure in its xmit path
while sending frames from netpoll.  This is racy, as other cpus can access the
netpoll structure in parallel. Since the bonding driver points np->dev to a
slave device, other cpus can inadvertently attempt to send data directly to
slave devices, leading to improper locking with the bonding master, lost frames,
and deadlocks.  This patch fixes that up.

This patch also removes the real_dev pointer from the netpoll structure as that
data is really only used by bonding in the poll_controller, and we can emulate
its behavior by check each slave for IS_UP.

0e34e93177 netpoll: add generic support for bridge and bonding devices
This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding
devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding,
and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now.

To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust
some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things:

1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device:
   IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll;
   IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device
   at run-time;

2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops:
   ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is
     removed.

3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter;
   export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later;

4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto.

5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll.

6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable
   netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

5fc05f8764 netpoll: warn when there are spaces in parameters
v2: update according to Frans' comments.

Currently, if we leave spaces before dst port,
netconsole will silently accept it as 0. Warn about this.

Also, when spaces appear in other places, make them
visible in error messages.

1b614fb9a0 netpoll: Fix carrier detection for drivers that are using phylib
Using early netconsole and gianfar driver this error pops up:

  netconsole: timeout waiting for carrier

It appears that net/core/netpoll.c:netpoll_setup() is using
cond_resched() in a loop waiting for a carrier.

The thing is that cond_resched() is a no-op when system_state !=
SYSTEM_RUNNING, and so drivers/net/phy/phy.c's state_queue is never
scheduled, therefore link detection doesn't work.

I belive that the main problem is in cond_resched()[1], but despite
how the cond_resched() story ends, it might be a good idea to call
msleep(1) instead of cond_resched(), as suggested by Andrew Morton.

bff38771e1 netpoll: Introduce netpoll_carrier_timeout kernel option
Some PHYs require longer timeouts for carrier detection, and
auto-negotiation process may take indefinite amount of time.

It may be inconvenient to force longer timeouts for sane PHYs,
so let's introduce a kernel command line option.

Since we're using module_param(), the option also can be
changed in runtime.

08baf56108 net: txq_trans_update() helper
We would like to get rid of netdev->trans_start = jiffies; that about all net
drivers have to use in their start_xmit() function, and use txq->trans_start
instead.

This can be done generically in core network, as suggested by David.

Some devices, (particularly loopback) dont need trans_start update, because
they dont have transmit watchdog. We could add a new device flag, or rely
on fact that txq->tran_start can be updated is txq->xmit_lock_owner is
different than -1. Use a helper function to hide our choice.

4ea7e38696 dropmon: add ability to detect when hardware dropsrxpackets
Patch to add the ability to detect drops in hardware interfaces via dropwatch.
Adds a tracepoint to net_rx_action to signal everytime a napi instance is
polled.  The dropmon code then periodically checks to see if the rx_frames
counter has changed, and if so, adds a drop notification to the netlink
protocol, using the reserved all-0's vector to indicate the drop location was in
hardware, rather than somewhere in the code.

5e392739d6 netpoll: don't dereference NULL dev from np
It looks like the dev in netpoll_poll can be NULL - at lease it's
checked at the function beginning. Thus the dev->netde_ops dereference
looks dangerous.
