David S. Miller c5c177b4ac net: Kill ratelimit.h dependency in linux/net.h
Ingo Molnar noticed that we have this unnecessary ratelimit.h
dependency in linux/net.h, which hid compilation problems from
people doing builds only with CONFIG_NET enabled.

Move this stuff out to a seperate net/net_ratelimit.h file and
include that in the only two places where this thing is needed.

David S. Miller bee95250f0 net: Add linux/sysctl.h includes where needed.
Several networking headers were depending upon the implicit

Hans Schillstrom c74c0bfe0b IPVS: bug in ip_vs_ftp, same list heaad used in all netns.
When ip_vs was adapted to netns the ftp application was not adapted
in a correct way.
However this is a fix to avoid kernel errors. In the long term another solution
might be chosen.  I.e the ports that the ftp appl, uses should be per netns.

David S. Miller 86e4ca66e8 bug.h: Move ratelimit warn interfaces to ratelimit.h
As reported by Ingo Molnar, we still have configuration combinations
where use of the WARN_RATELIMIT interfaces break the build because
dependencies don't get met.

Instead of going down the long road of trying to make it so that
ratelimit.h can get included by kernel.h or asm-generic/bug.h,
just move the interface into ratelimit.h and make users have
to include that.

Mandeep Singh Baines 4eec42f392 watchdog: Change the default timeout and configure nmi watchdog period based on watchdog_thresh
Before the conversion of the NMI watchdog to perf event, the
watchdog timeout was 5 seconds. Now it is 60 seconds. For my
particular application, netbooks, 5 seconds was a better
timeout. With a short timeout, we catch faults earlier and are
able to send back a panic. With a 60 second timeout, the user is
unlikely to wait and will instead hit the power button, causing
us to lose the panic info.

This change configures the NMI period to watchdog_thresh and
sets the softlockup_thresh to watchdog_thresh * 2. In addition,
watchdog_thresh was reduced to 10 seconds as suggested by Ingo
Molnar.

Mandeep Singh Baines 586692a5a5 watchdog: Disable watchdog when thresh is zero
This restores the previous behavior of softlock_thresh.

Currently, setting watchdog_thresh to zero causes the watchdog
kthreads to consume a lot of CPU.

In addition, the logic of proc_dowatchdog_thresh and
proc_dowatchdog_enabled has been factored into proc_dowatchdog.

Commit e66eed651f ("list: remove prefetching from regular list

list traversal still had them.

Quoth David Miller:
  "Please just remove the prefetches.

  Those are modelled after list.h as I intend to eventually convert
  SKB list handling to "struct list_head" but we're not there yet.

  Therefore if we kill prefetches from list.h we should kill it from
  these things in skbuff.h too."

Amerigo Wang 8d8fc29d02 netpoll: disable netpoll when enslave a device
V3: rename NETDEV_ENSLAVE to NETDEV_JOIN

Currently we do nothing when we enslave a net device which is running netconsole.
Neil pointed out that we may get weird results in such case, so let's disable
netpoll on the device being enslaved. I think it is too harsh to prevent
the device being ensalved if it is running netconsole.

By the way, this patch also removes the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN from netconsole
netdev notifier, because netpoll will check if the device is running or not
and we don't handle NETDEV_PRE_UP neither.

This patch is based on net-next-2.6.

Gleb Natapov 8fa2206821 KVM: make guest mode entry to be rcu quiescent state
KVM does not hold any references to rcu protected data when it switches
CPU into a guest mode. In fact switching to a guest mode is very similar
to exiting to userspase from rcu point of view. In addition CPU may stay
in a guest mode for quite a long time (up to one time slice). Lets treat
guest mode as quiescent state, just like we do with user-mode execution.

Linus Torvalds 268bb0ce3e sanitize <linux/prefetch.h> usage
Commit e66eed651f ("list: remove prefetching from regular list
iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which
uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather
obscure header file dependency.

So this fixes things up a bit, using

   grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]')
   grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]')

to guide us in finding files that either need <linux/prefetch.h>
inclusion, or have it despite not needing it.

There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets
many core ones.

When one macvlan device is dismantled, we can avoid one
synchronize_rcu() call done after deletion from hash list, since caller
will perform a synchronize_net() call after its ndo_stop() call.

Stephen Rothwell 1477fcc290 signal.h need a definition of struct task_struct
This fixes these build errors on powerpc:

  In file included from arch/powerpc/mm/fault.c:18:
  include/linux/signal.h:239: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
  include/linux/signal.h:239: error: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
  include/linux/signal.h:240: error: 'struct task_struct' declared inside parameter list
  ..

Exposed by commit e66eed651f ("list: remove prefetching from regular
list iterators"), which removed the include of <linux/prefetch.h> from
<linux/list.h>.

Without that, linux/signal.h no longer accidentally got the declaration
of 'struct task_struct'.

Fix by properly declaring the struct, rather than introducing any new
header file dependency.

Linus Torvalds e66eed651f list: remove prefetching from regular list iterators
This is removes the use of software prefetching from the regular list
iterators.  We don't want it.  If you do want to prefetch in some
iterator of yours, go right ahead.  Just don't expect the iterator to do
it, since normally the downsides are bigger than the upsides.

It also replaces <linux/prefetch.h> with <linux/const.h>, because the
use of LIST_POISON ends up needing it.  <linux/poison.h> is sadly not
self-contained, and including prefetch.h just happened to hide that.

Suggested by David Miller (networking has a lot of regular lists that
are often empty or a single entry, and prefetching is not going to do
anything but add useless instructions).

Linus Torvalds 75d65a425c hlist: remove software prefetching in hlist iterators
They not only increase the code footprint, they actually make things
slower rather than faster.  On internationally acclaimed benchmarks
("make -j16" on an already fully built kernel source tree) the hlist
prefetching slows down the build by up to 1%.

(Almost all of it comes from hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() as used by
avc_has_perm_noaudit(), which is very hot due to all the pathname
lookups to see if there is anything to do).

The cause seems to be two-fold:

 - on at least some Intel cores, prefetch(NULL) ends up with some
   microarchitectural stall due to the TLB miss that it incurs.  The
   hlist case triggers this very commonly, since the NULL pointer is the
   last entry in the list.

 - the prefetch appears to cause more D$ activity, probably because it
   prefetches hash list entries that are never actually used (because we
   ended the search early due to a hit).

Regardless, the numbers clearly say that the implicit prefetching is
simply a bad idea.  If some _particular_ user of the hlist iterators
wants to prefetch the next list entry, they can do so themselves
explicitly, rather than depend on all list iterators doing so
implicitly.

Eric Dumazet be281e554e ipv6: reduce per device ICMP mib sizes
ipv6 has per device ICMP SNMP counters, taking too much space because
they use percpu storage.

needed size per device is :
(512+4)*sizeof(long)*number_of_possible_cpus*2

On a 32bit kernel, 16 possible cpus, this wastes more than 64kbytes of
memory per ipv6 enabled network device, taken in vmalloc pool.

Since ICMP messages are rare, just use shared counters (atomic_long_t)

Per network space ICMP counters are still using percpu memory, we might
also convert them to shared counters in a future patch.

Jouni Malinen ed9d01026f cfg80211: Use consistent BSS matching between scan and sme
cfg80211 scan code adds separate BSS entries if the same BSS shows up
on multiple channels. However, sme implementation does not use the
frequency when fetching the BSS entry. Fix this by adding channel
information to cfg80211_roamed() and include it in cfg80211_get_bss()
calls.

Please note that drivers using cfg80211_roamed() need to be modified to
fully implement this fix. This commit includes only minimal changes to
avoid compilation issues; it maintains the old (broken) behavior for
most drivers. ath6kl was the only one that I could test, so I updated
it to provide the operating frequency in the roamed event.

Hauke Mehrtens b3ae52b6b0 SSB: Change fallback sprom to callback mechanism.
Some embedded devices like the Netgear WNDR3300 have two SSB based cards
without an own sprom on the pci bus. We have to provide two different
fallback sproms for these and this was not possible with the old solution.
In the bcm47xx architecture the sprom data is stored in the nvram in the
main flash storage. The architecture code will be able to fill the sprom
with the stored data based on the bus where the device was found.

The bcm63xx code should do the same thing as before, just using the new
API.

Tim Abbott 1a94dc35bc lib: Add generic binary search function to the kernel.
There a large number hand-coded binary searches in the kernel (run
"git grep search | grep binary" to find many of them).  Since in my
experience, hand-coding binary searches can be error-prone, it seems
worth cleaning this up by providing a generic binary search function.

This generic binary search implementation comes from Ksplice.  It has
the same basic API as the C library bsearch() function.  Ksplice uses
it in half a dozen places with 4 different comparison functions, and I
think our code is substantially cleaner because of this.

This patch places every exported symbol in its own section
(i.e. "___ksymtab+printk").  Thus the linker will use its SORT() directive
to sort and finally merge all symbol in the right and final section
(i.e. "__ksymtab").

The symbol prefixed archs use an underscore as prefix for symbols.
To avoid collision we use a different character to create the temporary
section names.

'git grep' finds module_param_array in 1037 places so this patch will
save a small amount of data space across many modules.

Richard Kennedy a288bd651f module: remove 64 bit alignment padding from struct module with CONFIG_TRACE*
Reorder struct module to remove 24 bytes of alignment padding on 64 bit
builds when the CONFIG_TRACE options are selected. This allows the
structure to fit into one fewer cache lines, and its size drops from 592
to 568 on x86_64.

Dmitry Torokhov 9b73a5840c module: do not hide __modver_version_show declaration behind ifdef
Doing so prevents the following warning from sparse:

  CHECK   kernel/params.c
kernel/params.c:817:9: warning: symbol '__modver_version_show' was not
declared. Should it be static?

since kernel/params.c is never compiled with MODULE being set.

Dmitry Torokhov b4bc842802 module: deal with alignment issues in built-in module versions
On m68k natural alignment is 2-byte boundary but we are trying to
align structures in __modver section on sizeof(void *) boundary.
This causes trouble when we try to access elements in this section
in array-like fashion when create "version" attributes for built-in
modules.

Moreover, as DaveM said, we can't reliably put structures into
independent objects, put them into a special section, and then expect
array access over them (via the section boundaries) after linking the
objects together to just "work" due to variable alignment choices in
different situations. The only solution that seems to work reliably
is to make an array of plain pointers to the objects in question and
put those pointers in the special section.

Steven Rostedt 936e074b28 ftrace: Modify ftrace_set_filter/notrace to take ops
Since users of the function tracer can now pick and choose which
functions they want to trace agnostically from other users of the
function tracer, we need to pass the ops struct to the ftrace_set_filter()
functions.

The functions ftrace_set_global_filter() and ftrace_set_global_notrace()
is added to keep the old filter functions which are used to modify
the generic function tracers.
