We are seeing dev_watchdog hangs on several drivers. I suspect this is due
to the __QUEUE_STATE_STACK_XOFF bit being set prior to a reset for link
change, and then not being cleared by netdev_tx_reset_queue. This change
corrects that.
In addition we were seeing dev_watchdog hangs on igb after running the
ethtool tests. We found this to be due to the fact that the ethtool test
runs the same logic as ndo_start_xmit, but we were never clearing the XOFF
flag since the loopback test in ethtool does not do byte queue accounting.

This patch allows you to attach the timeout policy via the
CT target, it adds a new revision of the target to ensure
backward compatibility. Moreover, it also contains the glue
code to stick the timeout object defined via nfnetlink_cttimeout
to the given flow.
Example usage (it requires installing the nfct tool and
libnetfilter_cttimeout):
1) create the timeout policy:
nfct timeout add tcp-policy0 inet tcp \
established 1000 close 10 time_wait 10 last_ack 10
2) attach the timeout policy to the packet:
iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp -j CT --timeout tcp-policy0
You have to install the following user-space software:
a) libnetfilter_cttimeout:
git://git.netfilter.org/libnetfilter_cttimeout
b) nfct:
git://git.netfilter.org/nfct
You also have to get iptables with -j CT --timeout support.

This patch adds the infrastructure to add fine timeout tuning

to conntrack via the CT target and the conntrack extension

When moving tasks from old memcg (with move_charge_at_immigrate on new
memcg), followed by removal of old memcg, hit General Protection Fault in
mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() (called from release_pages called from
free_pages_and_swap_cache from tlb_flush_mmu from tlb_finish_mmu from
exit_mmap from mmput from exit_mm from do_exit).
Somewhat reproducible, takes a few hours: the old struct mem_cgroup has
been freed and poisoned by SLAB_DEBUG, but mem_cgroup_lru_del_list() is
still trying to update its stats, and take page off lru before freeing.
A task, or a charge, or a page on lru: each secures a memcg against
removal. In this case, the last task has been moved out of the old memcg,
and it is exiting: anonymous pages are uncharged one by one from the
memcg, as they are zapped from its pagetables, so the charge gets down to
0; but the pages themselves are queued in an mmu_gather for freeing.
Most of those pages will be on lru (and force_empty is careful to
lru_add_drain_all, to add pages from pagevec to lru first), but not
necessarily all: perhaps some have been isolated for page reclaim, perhaps
some isolated for other reasons. So, force_empty may find no task, no
charge and no page on lru, and let the removal proceed.
There would still be no problem if these pages were immediately freed; but
typically (and the put_page_testzero protocol demands it) they have to be
added back to lru before they are found freeable, then removed from lru
and freed. We don't see the issue when adding, because the
mem_cgroup_iter() loops keep their own reference to the memcg being
scanned; but when it comes to mem_cgroup_lru_del_list().
I believe this was not an issue in v3.2: there, PageCgroupAcctLRU and
PageCgroupUsed flags were used (like a trick with mirrors) to deflect view
of pc->mem_cgroup to the stable root_mem_cgroup when neither set.
38c5d72f3e ("memcg: simplify LRU handling by new rule") mercifully
removed those convolutions, but left this General Protection Fault.
But it's surprisingly easy to restore the old behaviour: just check
PageCgroupUsed in mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() (which decides on which lruvec
to add), and reset pc to root_mem_cgroup if page is uncharged. A risky
change? just going back to how it worked before; testing, and an audit of
uses of pc->mem_cgroup, show no problem.
And there's a nice bonus: with mem_cgroup_lru_add_list() itself making
sure that an uncharged page goes to root lru, mem_cgroup_reset_owner() no
longer has any purpose, and we can safely revert 4e5f01c2b9 ("memcg:
clear pc->mem_cgroup if necessary").
Calling update_page_reclaim_stat() after add_page_to_lru_list() in swap.c
is not strictly necessary: the lru_lock there, with RCU before memcg
structures are freed, makes mem_cgroup_get_reclaim_stat_from_page safe
without that; but it seems cleaner to rely on one dependency less.

Make vfork() killable.
Change do_fork(CLONE_VFORK) to do wait_for_completion_killable(). If it
fails we do not return to the user-mode and never touch the memory shared
with our child.
However, in this case we should clear child->vfork_done before return, we
use task_lock() in do_fork()->wait_for_vfork_done() and
complete_vfork_done() to serialize with each other.
Note: now that we use task_lock() we don't really need completion, we
could turn task->vfork_done into "task_struct *wake_up_me" but this needs
some complications.
NOTE: this and the next patches do not affect in-kernel users of
CLONE_VFORK, kernel threads run with all signals ignored including
SIGKILL/SIGSTOP.
However this is obviously the user-visible change. Not only a fatal
signal can kill the vforking parent, a sub-thread can do execve or
exit_group() and kill the thread sleeping in vfork().

Since commit 04c6862c05 ("kmsg_dump: add kmsg_dump() calls to the
reboot, halt, poweroff and emergency_restart paths"), kmsg_dump() gets
run on normal paths including poweroff and reboot.
This is less than ideal given pstore implementations that can only
represent single backtraces, since a reboot may overwrite a stored oops
before it's been picked up by userspace. In addition, some pstore
backends may have low performance and provide a significant delay in
reboot as a result.
This patch adds a printk.always_kmsg_dump kernel parameter (which can also
be changed from userspace). Without it, the code will only be run on
failure paths rather than on normal paths. The option can be enabled in
environments where there's a desire to attempt to audit whether or not a
reboot was cleanly requested or not.

There is no 2.4 GHz or 5GHz antenna gain stored in sprom. The sprom
just stores the gain values for antenna 1 and 2 or 1 to 4 for more
recent sprom versions. On old devices antenna 2 was used for 5 GHz wifi.

Some parts of the sprom struct are bigger than needed.
The leddc and maxpwr values are just 8 bit long and not 16.
rxpo2g and rxpo5g are signed
I got these information for the open source part of the Broadcom SDK
covering sprom version 1 to 9. rxpo2g contained a negative number on my
bcm5354 based device, this cased an error and Broadcom SDK says this is
signed.
