Some devices may not be able to report A-MSDUs in single buffers. Drivers for such devices were forced to re-assemble A-MSDUs which would then be eventually disassembled by mac80211. This could lead to CPU cache thrashing and poor performance. Since A-MSDU has a single sequence number all subframes share it. This was in conflict with retransmission/duplication recovery (IEEE802.11-2012: 9.3.2.10). Patch introduces a new flag that is meant to be set for all individually reported A-MSDU subframes except the last one. This ensures the last_seq_ctrl is updated after the last subframe is processed. If an A-MSDU is actually a duplicate transmission all reported subframes will be properly discarded.

This function adds the channel switch announcement implementation for the IBSS code. It is triggered by userspace (mac80211/cfg) or by external channel switch announcement, which have to be adopted. Both CSAs in beacons and action frames are supported. As for AP mode, the channel switch is applied after some time. However in IBSS mode, the channel switch IEs are generated in the kernel.

IBSS CSA will require to disconnect if a channel switch fails, but mac80211 should search and re-connect after this disconnect.

Since when we detect beacon lost we do active AP probing (using nullfunc frame or probe request) there is no need to have beacon polling. Flags IEEE80211_STA_BEACON_POLL seems to be used just for historical reasons. Change also make that after we start connection poll due to beacon loss, next received beacon will abort the poll.

Johannes Berg authored
If it is needed to disconnect multiple virtual interfaces after (WoWLAN-) suspend, the most obvious approach would be to iterate all interfaces by calling ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces() and then call ieee80211_resume_disconnect() for each one. This is what the iwlmvm driver does. Unfortunately, this causes a locking dependency from mac80211's iflist_mtx to the key_mtx. This is problematic as the former is intentionally never held while calling any driver operation to allow drivers to iterate with their own locks held. The key_mtx is held while installing a key into the driver though, so this new lock dependency means drivers implementing the logic above can no longer hold their own lock while iterating. To fix this, add a new ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl() function that iterates while the RTNL is already held. This is true during suspend/resume, so that then the locking dependency isn't introduced. While at it, also refactor the various interface iterators and keep only a single implementation called by the various cases. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Matt found that commit 27a7c642 ("partitions/efi: account for pmbr size in lba") caused his GPT formatted eMMC device not to boot. The reason is that this commit enforced Linux to always check the lesser of the whole disk or 2Tib for the pMBR size in LBA. While most disk partitioning tools out there create a pMBR with these characteristics, Microsoft does not, as it always sets the entry to the maximum 32-bit limitation - even though a drive may be smaller than that[1]. Loosen this check and only verify that the size is either the whole disk or 0xFFFFFFFF. No tool in its right mind would set it to any value other than these.

The LRU list changes interacted badly with our nr_dentry_unused accounting, and even worse with the new DCACHE_LRU_LIST bit logic. This introduces helper functions to make sure everything follows the proper dcache d_lru list rules: the dentry cache is complicated by the fact that some of the hotpaths don't even want to look at the LRU list at all, and the fact that we use the same list entry in the dentry for both the LRU list and for our temporary shrinking lists when removing things from the LRU. The helper functions temporarily have some extra sanity checking for the flag bits that have to match the current LRU state of the dentry. We'll remove that before the final 3.12 release, but considering how easy it is to get wrong, this first cleanup version has some very particular sanity checking.

When reading a single page with cifs_readpage(), we make a call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() which once done, asynchronously calls the completion function cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete(). This completion function unlocks the page once it has been populated from cache. The module then attempts to unlock the page a second time in cifs_readpage() which leads to warning messages. In case of a successful call to fscache_read_or_alloc_page() we should skip the second unlock_page() since this will be called by the cifs_readpage_from_fscache_complete() once the page has been populated by fscache. With the modifications to cifs_readpage_worker(), we will need to re-grab the page lock in cifs_write_begin(). The problem was first noticed when testing new fscache patches for cifs. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1005737Signed-off-by: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Jeff Layton <jlayton@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Steve French <smfrench@gmail.com>
