John W. Linville says:
====================
Please accept this batch of updates intended for the 3.12 stream.
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says this:
"This time I have various improvements all over the place: IBSS, mesh,
testmode, AP client powersave handling, one of the rare rfkill patches
and some code cleanup."
Also for mac80211:
"And I also have some more changes for -next, just a few small fixes and
improvements, nothing really stands out."
And for iwlwifi:
"This time I have some powersave work (notably uAPSD support), CQM
offloads, support for a new firmware API and various code cleanups."
Regarding the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"Patches to 3.12, here we have:
* implementation of a proper tty_port for RFCOMM devices, this fixes some
issues people were seeing lately in the kernel.
* Add voice_setting option for SCO, it is used for SCO Codec selection
* bugfixes, small improvements and clean ups"
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"With this one we have:
- A few pn533 improvements and minor fixes. Testing our pn533 driver
against Google's NCI stack triggered a few issues that we fixed now.
We also added Tx fragmentation support to this driver.
- More NFC secure element handling. We added a GET_SE netlink command
for getting all the discovered secure elements, and we defined 2
additional secure element netlink event (transaction and connectivity).
We also fixed a couple of typos and copy-paste bugs from the secure
element handling code.
- Firmware download support for the pn544 driver. This chipset can enter a
special mode where it's waiting for firmware blobs to replace the
already flashed one. We now support that mode."
With repect to the ath tree, Kalle says:
"New features in ath10k are rx/tx checsumming in hw and survey scan
implemented by Michal. Also he made fixes to different areas of the
driver, most notable being fixing the case when using two streams and
reducing the number of interface combinations to avoid firmware crashes.
Bartosz did a clean related to how we handle SoC power save in PCI
layer.
For ath6kl Mohammed and Vasanth sent each a patch to fix two infrequent
crashes."
I also pulled the wireless tree into wireless-next to support a
request from Johannes. On top of all that, there are the usual
sort of driver updates. The mwifiex, brcmfmac, brcmsmac, ath9k,
and rt2x00 drivers all get some attention, as does the bcma bus and
a few other random bits here and there.

By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default
for all devices. But we have better choices now.
This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl.
This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices
without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow
an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default
qdisc.
This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly
use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl
is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast
Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being
bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO
packets.
One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic
relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having
big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create
micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the
buffering amount.
This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates
the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so
that we try to send one packet every ms.
This field could be set by other transports.
Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets
makes sense to reach line rate.
For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking.
This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments.
A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the
minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2).
A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using
sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing.
This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current
rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up.
sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt
v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on
initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take
into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs

Jesse Gross says:
====================
A number of significant new features and optimizations for net-next/3.12.
Highlights are:
* "Megaflows", an optimization that allows userspace to specify which
flow fields were used to compute the results of the flow lookup.
This allows for a major reduction in flow setups (the major
performance bottleneck in Open vSwitch) without reducing flexibility.
* Converting netlink dump operations to use RCU, allowing for
additional parallelism in userspace.
* Matching and modifying SCTP protocol fields.

Add wildcarded flow support in kernel datapath.
Wildcarded flow can improve OVS flow set up performance by avoid sending
matching new flows to the user space program. The exact performance boost
will largely dependent on wildcarded flow hit rate.
In case all new flows hits wildcard flows, the flow set up rate is
within 5% of that of linux bridge module.

Reduce Unsolicited report interval to 1s when using IGMPv3") and
2690048c01 ("net: igmp: Allow user-space
configuration of igmp unsolicited report interval") by William Manley made
igmp unsolicited report intervals configurable per interface and corrected
the interval of unsolicited igmpv3 report messages resendings to 1s.
Same needs to be done for IPv6:
MLDv1 (RFC2710 7.10.): 10 seconds
MLDv2 (RFC3810 9.11.): 1 second
Both intervals are configurable via new procfs knobs
mldv1_unsolicited_report_interval and mldv2_unsolicited_report_interval.
(also added .force_mld_version to ipv6_devconf_dflt to bring structs in
line without semantic changes)
v2:
a) Joined documentation update for IPv4 and IPv6 MLD/IGMP
unsolicited_report_interval procfs knobs.
b) incorporate stylistic feedback from William Manley
v3:
a) add new DEVCONF_* values to the end of the enum (thanks to David

The module was "permanent", due to the special tproxy skb->destructor.
Nowadays we have tcp early demux and its sock_edemux destructor in
networking core which can be used instead.
Thanks to early demux changes the input path now also handles
"skb->sk is tw socket" correctly, so this no longer needs the special
handling introduced with commit d503b30bd6
(netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk).
Thus:
- move assign_sock function to where its needed
- don't prevent timewait sockets from being assigned to the skb
- remove nf_tproxy_core.

Idea of this patch is to add optional limitation of number of
unsent bytes in TCP sockets, to reduce usage of kernel memory.
TCP receiver might announce a big window, and TCP sender autotuning
might allow a large amount of bytes in write queue, but this has little
performance impact if a large part of this buffering is wasted :
Write queue needs to be large only to deal with large BDP, not
necessarily to cope with scheduling delays (incoming ACKS make room
for the application to queue more bytes)
For most workloads, using a value of 128 KB or less is OK to give
applications enough time to react to POLLOUT events in time
(or being awaken in a blocking sendmsg())
This patch adds two ways to set the limit :
1) Per socket option TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT
2) A sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_notsent_lowat) for sockets
not using TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option (or setting a zero value)
Default value being UINT_MAX (0xFFFFFFFF), meaning this has no effect.
This changes poll()/select()/epoll() to report POLLOUT
only if number of unsent bytes is below tp->nosent_lowat
Note this might increase number of sendmsg()/sendfile() calls
when using non blocking sockets,
and increase number of context switches for blocking sockets.
Note this is not related to SO_SNDLOWAT (as SO_SNDLOWAT is
defined as :
Specify the minimum number of bytes in the buffer until
the socket layer will pass the data to the protocol)
Tested:
netperf sessions, and watching /proc/net/protocols "memory" column for TCP
With 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_STREAM sessions, amount of kernel memory
used by TCP buffers shrinks by ~55 % (20567 pages instead of 45458)
lpq83:~# echo -1 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_notsent_lowat
lpq83:~# (super_netperf 200 -t TCP_STREAM -H remote -l 90 &); sleep 60 ; grep TCP /proc/net/protocols
TCPv6 1880 2 45458 no 208 yes ipv6 y y y y y y y y y y y y y n y y y y y

TCP 1696 508 20567 no 208 yes kernel y y y y y y y y y y y y y n y y y y y
Using 128KB has no bad effect on the throughput or cpu usage
of a single flow, although there is an increase of context switches.
A bonus is that we hold socket lock for a shorter amount
of time and should improve latencies of ACK processing.

Pull block IO driver bits from Jens Axboe:
"As I mentioned in the core block pull request, due to real life
circumstances the driver pull request would be late. Now it looks
like -rc2 late... On the plus side, apart form the rsxx update, these
are all things that I could argue could go in later in the cycle as
they are fixes and not features. So even though things are late, it's
not ALL bad.
The pull request contains:
- Updates to bcache, all bug fixes, from Kent.
- A pile of drbd bug fixes (no big features this time!).
- xen blk front/back fixes.
- rsxx driver updates, some of them deferred form 3.10. So should be
well cooked by now"

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the uses of the __cpuinit macros from C files in
the core kernel directories (kernel, init, lib, mm, and include)
that don't really have a specific maintainer.
