Linus Torvalds 3c4cfadef6 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking changes from David S Miller:

 1) Remove the ipv4 routing cache.  Now lookups go directly into the FIB
    trie and use prebuilt routes cached there.

    No more garbage collection, no more rDOS attacks on the routing
    cache.  Instead we now get predictable and consistent performance,
    no matter what the pattern of traffic we service.

    This has been almost 2 years in the making.  Special thanks to
    Julian Anastasov, Eric Dumazet, Steffen Klassert, and others who
    have helped along the way.

    I'm sure that with a change of this magnitude there will be some
    kind of fallout, but such things ought the be simple to fix at this
    point.  Luckily I'm not European so I'll be around all of August to
    fix things :-)

    The major stages of this work here are each fronted by a forced
    merge commit whose commit message contains a top-level description
    of the motivations and implementation issues.

 2) Pre-demux of established ipv4 TCP sockets, saves a route demux on
    input.

 3) TCP SYN/ACK performance tweaks from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Add namespace support for netfilter L4 conntrack helpers, from Gao
    Feng.

 5) Add config mechanism for Energy Efficient Ethernet to ethtool, from
    Yuval Mintz.

 6) Remove quadratic behavior from /proc/net/unix, from Eric Dumazet.

 7) Support for connection tracker helpers in userspace, from Pablo
    Neira Ayuso.

 8) Allow userspace driven TX load balancing functions in TEAM driver,
    from Jiri Pirko.

 9) Kill off NLMSG_PUT and RTA_PUT macros, more gross stuff with
    embedded gotos.

10) TCP Small Queues, essentially minimize the amount of TCP data queued
    up in the packet scheduler layer.  Whereas the existing BQL (Byte
    Queue Limits) limits the pkt_sched --> netdevice queuing levels,
    this controls the TCP --> pkt_sched queueing levels.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Reduce the number of get_page/put_page ops done on SKB fragments,
    from Alexander Duyck.

12) Implement protection against blind resets in TCP (RFC 5961), from
    Eric Dumazet.

13) Support the client side of TCP Fast Open, basically the ability to
    send data in the SYN exchange, from Yuchung Cheng.

    Basically, the sender queues up data with a sendmsg() call using
    MSG_FASTOPEN, then they do the connect() which emits the queued up
    fastopen data.

14) Avoid all the problems we get into in TCP when timers or PMTU events
    hit a locked socket.  The TCP Small Queues changes added a
    tcp_release_cb() that allows us to queue work up to the
    release_sock() caller, and that's what we use here too.  From Eric
    Dumazet.

15) Zero copy on TX support for TUN driver, from Michael S. Tsirkin.

Al Viro efee984c27 new helper: signal_delivered()
Does block_sigmask() + tracehook_signal_handler();  called when
sigframe has been successfully built.  All architectures converted
to it; block_sigmask() itself is gone now (merged into this one).

I'm still not too happy with the signature, but that's a separate
story (IMO we need a structure that would contain signal number +
siginfo + k_sigaction, so that get_signal_to_deliver() would fill one,
signal_delivered(), handle_signal() and probably setup...frame() -
take one).

Matt Fleming 6e61ee3b7a C6X: use set_current_blocked() and block_sigmask()
As described in e6fa16ab9c ("signal: sigprocmask() should do
retarget_shared_pending()") the modification of current->blocked is
incorrect as we need to check whether the signal we're about to block is
pending in the shared queue.

Also, use the new helper function introduced in commit 5e6292c0f2
("signal: add block_sigmask() for adding sigmask to current->blocked")
which centralises the code for updating current->blocked after
successfully delivering a signal and reduces the amount of duplicate
code across architectures.  In the past some architectures got this code
wrong, so using this helper function should stop that from happening
again.

Linus Torvalds c207f3a431 Generialize powerpc's irq_host as irq_domain
This branch takes the PowerPC irq_host infrastructure (reverse mapping
 from Linux IRQ numbers to hardware irq numbering), generalizes it,
 renames it to irq_domain, and makes it available to all architectures.
 
 Originally the plan has been to create an all-new irq_domain
 implementation which addresses some of the powerpc shortcomings such
 as not handling 1:1 mappings well, but doing that proved to be far
 more difficult and invasive than generalizing the working code and
 refactoring it in-place.  So, this branch rips out the 'new'
 irq_domain and replaces it with the modified powerpc version (in a
 fully bisectable way of course).  It converts all users over to the
 new API and makes irq_domain selectable on any architecture.
 
 No architecture is forced to enable irq_domain, but the infrastructure
 is required for doing OpenFirmware style irq translations.  It will
 even work on SPARC even though SPARC has it's own mechanism for
 translating irqs at boot time.  MIPS, microblaze, embedded x86 and c6x
 are converted too.
 
 The resulting irq_domain code is probably still too verbose and can be
 optimized more, but that can be done incrementally and is a task for
 follow-on patches.

The ENDPROC() on sys_fadvise64_c6x() in arch/c6x/kernel/entry.S is
outside of the conditional block with the matching ENTRY() macro. This

  /tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Assembler messages:
  /tmp/ccGZBaPT.s: Error: .size expression for sys_fadvise64_c6x does not evaluate to a constant

The conditional block became dead code when c6x switched to generic
unistd.h and should be removed along with the offending ENDPROC().

Aurelien Jacquiot 14aa7e8bf6 C6X: memory management and DMA support
Original port to early 2.6 kernel using TI COFF toolchain.
Brought up to date by Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>

The C6X architecture currently lacks an MMU so memory management is relatively
simple. There is no bus snooping between L2 and main memory but coherent DMA
memory is supported by making regions of main memory uncached. If such a region
is desired, it can be specified on the commandline with a "memdma=" argument.

Mark Salter 041cadca70 C6X: devicetree support
This is the basic devicetree support for C6X. Currently, four boards are
supported. Each one uses a different SoC part. Two of the four supported
SoCs are multicore. One with 3 cores and the other with 6 cores. There is
no coherency between the core-level caches, so SMP is not an option. It is
possible to run separate kernel instances on the various cores. There is
currently no C6X bootloader support for device trees so we build in the DTB
for now.

There are some interesting twists to the hardware which are of note for device
tree support. Each core has its own interrupt controller which is controlled
by special purpose core registers. This core controller provides 12 general
purpose prioritized interrupt sources. Each core is contained within a
hardware "module" which provides L1 and L2 caches, power control, and another
interrupt controller which cascades into the core interrupt controller. These
core module functions are controlled by memory mapped registers. The addresses
for these registers are the same for each core. That is, when coreN accesses
a module-level MMIO register at a given address, it accesses the register for
coreN even though other cores would use the same address to access the register
in the module containing those cores. Other hardware modules (timers, enet, etc)
which are memory mapped can be accessed by all cores.

The timers need some further explanation for multicore SoCs. Even though all
timer control registers are visible to all cores, interrupt routing or other
considerations may make a given timer more suitable for use by a core than
some other timer. Because of this and the desire to have the same image run
on more than one core, the timer nodes have a "ti,core-mask" property which
is used by the driver to scan for a suitable timer to use.

Aurelien Jacquiot c1a144d77a C6X: early boot code
Original port to early 2.6 kernel using TI COFF toolchain.
Brought up to date by Mark Salter <msalter@redhat.com>

This patch provides the early boot code for C6X architecture. There is a
16 entry vector table which is used to direct reset and interrupt events. The
vector table entries contain a small amount of code (maximum of 8 opcodes)
which simply branches to the actual event handling code.

The head.S code simply clears BSS, setups up a few control registers, and calls
machine_init followed by start_kernel. The machine_init code in setup.c does
the early flat tree parsing (memory, commandline, etc). At setup_arch time, the
code does the usual memory setup and minimally scans the devicetree for any
needed information.
