Export of_mdio_parse_addr() which allows parsing a given Ethernet PHY node MDIO address, verify it is within the allowed range, and return its value. This is going to be useful for the DSA code which needs to deal with multiple layers of MDIO buses.

The 0-day kernel test infrastructure reported a use of uninitialized variable warning for local_table due to the fact that the local and main allocations had been swapped from the original setup. This change corrects that by making it so that we free the main table if the local table allocation fails.

CONFIG_MPLS=m doesn't result in a kernel module being built because it applies to the net/mpls directory, rather than to .o files. So revert the MPLS menuitem to being a boolean and make MPLS_GSO and MPLS_ROUTING tristates to allow mpls_gso and mpls_router modules to be produced as desired. Cc: "Eric W.

This patch adds a rehash function that supports the use of any hash function for the new table. This is needed to support changing the random seed value during the lifetime of the hash table. However for now the random seed value is still constant and the rehash function is simply used to replace the existing expand/shrink functions. [ ASSERT_BUCKET_LOCK() and thus debug_dump_table() + debug_dump_buckets() are not longer used, so delete them entirely. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert.xu@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently hash_rnd is a parameter that users can set. However, no existing users set this parameter. It is also something that people are unlikely to want to set directly since it's just a random number. In preparation for allowing the reseeding/rehashing of rhashtable, this patch moves hash_rnd into bucket_table so that it's now an internal state rather than a parameter.

This patch is meant to collapse local and main into one by converting tb_data from an array to a pointer. Doing this allows us to point the local table into the main while maintaining the same variables in the table. As such the tb_data was converted from an array to a pointer, and a new array called data is added in order to still provide an object for tb_data to point to. In order to track the origin of the fib aliases a tb_id value was added in a hole that existed on 64b systems. Using this we can also reverse the merge in the event that custom FIB rules are enabled. With this patch I am seeing an improvement of 20ns to 30ns for routing lookups as long as custom rules are not enabled, with custom rules enabled we fall back to split tables and the original behavior.

Jon Paul Maloy authored
commit afaa3f65 (tipc: purge links when bearer is disabled) was an attempt to resolve a problem that turned out to have a more profound reason. When we disable a bearer, we delete all its pertaining links if there is no other bearer to perform failover to, or if the module is shutting down. In case there are dual bearers, we wait with deleting links until the failover procedure is finished. However, this misses the case when a link on the removed bearer was already down, so that there will be no failover procedure to finish the link delete. This causes confusion if a new bearer is added to replace the removed one, and also entails a small memory leak. This commit takes the current state of the link into account when deciding when to delete it, and also reverses the above-mentioned commit.

If the inflate call failed it would return NULL. As a result tp would be set to NULL and cause use to trigger a NULL pointer dereference in should_halve if the inflate failed on the first attempt. In order to prevent this we should decrement max_work before we actually attempt to inflate as this will force us to exit before attempting to halve a node we should have inflated. In order to keep things symmetric between inflate and halve I went ahead and also moved the decrement of max_work for the halve case as well so we take care of that before we actually attempt to halve the tnode.

e5de75bf ("netfilter: bridge: move DNAT helper to br_netfilter") results in the following link problem: net/bridge/br_device.c:29: undefined reference to `br_nf_prerouting_finish_bridge` Moreover it creates a hard dependency between br_netfilter and the bridge core, which is what we've been trying to avoid so far. Resolve this problem by using a hook structure so we reduce #ifdef pollution and keep bridge netfilter specific code under br_netfilter.c which was the original intention.

Florian Fainelli says: ==================== net: dsa: remove restriction on platform_device This patch series removes the restriction in DSA to operate exclusively with platform_device Ethernet MAC drivers when using Device Tree. This basically allows arbitrary Ethernet MAC drivers to be used now in conjunction with Device Tree. The reason was that DSA was using a of_find_device_by_node() which limits the device_node to device pointer search exclusively to platform_device, in our case, we are interested in doing a "class" research and lookup the net_device. Thanks to Chris Packham for testing this on his platform. Changes in v2: - fix build for !CONFIG_OF_NET ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Using of_find_device_by_node() restricts the search to platform_device that match the specified device_node pointer. This is not even remotely true for network devices backed by a pci_device for instance. of_find_net_device_by_node() allows us to do a more thorough lookup to find the struct net_device corresponding to a particular device_node pointer. For symetry with the non-OF code path, we hold the net_device pointer in dsa_probe() just like what dev_to_net_dev() does when we call this function.

Add a helper function which allows getting the struct net_device pointer associated with a given struct device_node pointer. This is useful for instance for DSA Ethernet devices not backed by a platform_device, but a PCI device. Since we need to access net_class which is not accessible outside of net/core/net-sysfs.c, this helper function is also added here and gated with CONFIG_OF_NET. Network devices initialized with SET_NETDEV_DEV() are also taken into account by checking for dev->parent first and then falling back to checking the device pointer within struct net_device.

It also contains fixes to ftrace when /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled and function tracing are started. Doing the following causes some issues: # echo 0 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo 1 > /proc/sys/kernel/ftrace_enabled # echo nop > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer # echo function_graph > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/current_tracer As well as with function tracing too. Pratyush Anand first reported this issue to me and supplied a patch. When I tested this on my x86 test box, it caused thousands of backtraces and warnings to appear in dmesg, which also caused a denial of service (a warning for every function that was listed). I applied Pratyush's patch but it did not fix the issue for me. I looked into it and found a slight problem with trampoline accounting. I fixed it and sent Pratyush a patch, but he said that it did not fix the issue for him. I later learned tha Pratyush was using an ARM64 server, and when I tested on my ARM board, I was able to reproduce the same issue as Pratyush. After applying his patch, it fixed the problem. The above test uncovered two different bugs, one in x86 and one in ARM and ARM64. As this looked like it would affect PowerPC, I tested it on my PPC64 box. It too broke, but neither the patch that fixed ARM or x86 fixed this box (the changes were all in generic code!). The above test, uncovered two more bugs that affected PowerPC. Again, the changes were only done to generic code. It's the way the arch code expected things to be done that was different between the archs. Some where more sensitive than others.

Pull workqueue fix from Tejun Heo: "One fix patch for a subtle livelock condition which can happen on PREEMPT_NONE kernels involving two racing cancel_work calls. Whoever comes in the second has to wait for the previous one to finish. This was implemented by making the later one block for the same condition that the former would be (work item completion) and then loop and retest; unfortunately, depending on the wake up order, the later one could lock out the former one to finish by busy looping on the cpu. This is fixed by implementing explicit wait mechanism. Work item might not belong anywhere at this point and there's remote possibility of thundering herd problem. I originally tried to use bit_waitqueue but it didn't work for static work items on modules. It's currently using single wait queue with filtering wake up function and exclusive wakeup. If this ever becomes a problem, which is not very likely, we can try to figure out a way to piggy back on bit_waitqueue" * 'for-4.0-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/wq: workqueue: fix hang involving racing cancel[_delayed]_work_sync()'s for PREEMPT_NONE
