Upcoming congestion controls for TCP require usec resolution for RTT
estimations. Millisecond resolution is simply not enough these days.
FQ/pacing in DC environments also require this change for finer control
and removal of bimodal behavior due to the current hack in
tcp_update_pacing_rate() for 'small rtt'
TCP_CONG_RTT_STAMP is no longer needed.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, we need to keep user compatibility :
tcp_metrics used to export RTT and RTTVAR in msec resolution,
so we added RTT_US and RTTVAR_US. An iproute2 patch is needed
to use the new attributes if provided by the kernel.
In this example ss command displays a srtt of 32 usecs (10Gbit link)

This option has the same semantic as IP_PMTUDISC_OMIT for IPv4 which
got recently introduced. It doesn't honor the path mtu discovered by the
host but in contrary to IPV6_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE allows the generation of
fragments if the packet size exceeds the MTU of the outgoing interface
MTU.

IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE has a design error: because it does not allow the
generation of fragments if the interface mtu is exceeded, it is very
hard to make use of this option in already deployed name server software
for which I introduced this option.
This patch adds yet another new IP_MTU_DISCOVER option to not honor any
path mtu information and not accepting new icmp notifications destined for
the socket this option is enabled on. But we allow outgoing fragmentation
in case the packet size exceeds the outgoing interface mtu.
As such this new option can be used as a drop-in replacement for
IP_PMTUDISC_DONT, which is currently in use by most name server software
making the adoption of this option very smooth and easy.
The original advantage of IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE is still maintained:
ignoring incoming path MTU updates and not honoring discovered path MTUs
in the output path.

Now that the type1 IOMMU backend can support IOMMU_CACHE, we need to
be able to test whether coherency is currently enforced. Add an
extension for this.
Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>
We currently have a problem that we cannot support advanced features
of an IOMMU domain (ex. IOMMU_CACHE), because we have no guarantee
that those features will be supported by all of the hardware units
involved with the domain over its lifetime. For instance, the Intel
VT-d architecture does not require that all DRHDs support snoop
control. If we create a domain based on a device behind a DRHD that
does support snoop control and enable SNP support via the IOMMU_CACHE
mapping option, we cannot then add a device behind a DRHD which does
not support snoop control or we'll get reserved bit faults from the
SNP bit in the pagetables. To add to the complexity, we can't know
the properties of a domain until a device is attached.
We could pass this problem off to userspace and require that a
separate vfio container be used, but we don't know how to handle page
accounting in that case. How do we know that a page pinned in one
container is the same page as a different container and avoid double
billing the user for the page.
The solution is therefore to support multiple IOMMU domains per
container. In the majority of cases, only one domain will be required
since hardware is typically consistent within a system. However, this
provides us the ability to validate compatibility of domains and
support mixed environments where page table flags can be different
between domains.
To do this, our DMA tracking needs to change. We currently try to
coalesce user mappings into as few tracking entries as possible. The
problem then becomes that we lose granularity of user mappings. We've
never guaranteed that a user is able to unmap at a finer granularity
than the original mapping, but we must honor the granularity of the
original mapping. This coalescing code is therefore removed, allowing
only unmaps covering complete maps. The change in accounting is
fairly small here, a typical QEMU VM will start out with roughly a
dozen entries, so it's arguable if this coalescing was ever needed.
We also move IOMMU domain creation to the point where a group is
attached to the container. An interesting side-effect of this is that
we now have access to the device at the time of domain creation and
can probe the devices within the group to determine the bus_type.
This finally makes vfio_iommu_type1 completely device/bus agnostic.
In fact, each IOMMU domain can host devices on different buses managed
by different physical IOMMUs, and present a single DMA mapping
interface to the user. When a new domain is created, mappings are
replayed to bring the IOMMU pagetables up to the state of the current
container. And of course, DMA mapping and unmapping automatically
traverse all of the configured IOMMU domains.

"ext4: introduce two new ioctls"
Dave chinner suggested that truncate_block_range
(which was one of the ioctls name) should be a fallocate operation
and not any fs specific ioctl, hence we add this functionality to new flags of fallocate.
This new functionality of collapsing range could be used by media editing tools
which does non linear editing to quickly purge and edit parts of a media file.
This will immensely improve the performance of these operations.
The limitation of fs block size aligned offsets can be easily handled
by media codecs which are encapsulated in a conatiner as they have to
just change the offset to next keyframe value to match the proper alignment.

The goal of this patch is to allow userland to dump only a part of SA by
specifying a filter during the dump.
The kernel is in charge to filter SA, this avoids to generate useless netlink
traffic (it save also some cpu cycles). This is particularly useful when there
is a big number of SA set on the system.
Note that I removed the union in struct xfrm_state_walk to fix a problem on arm.
struct netlink_callback->args is defined as a array of 6 long and the first long
is used in xfrm code to flag the cb as initialized. Hence, we must have:
sizeof(struct xfrm_state_walk) <= sizeof(long) * 5.
With the union, it was false on arm (sizeof(struct xfrm_state_walk) was
sizeof(long) * 7), due to the padding.
In fact, whatever the arch is, this union seems useless, there will be always
padding after it. Removing it will not increase the size of this struct (and
reduce it on arm).

iovcnt is declared as a signed integer in both the userspace API and
as a local variable in mic_virtio.c. The while() loop in mic_virtio.c
iterates until the local variable iovcnt reaches the value 0. If
userspace passes e.g. INT_MIN as iovcnt field, this loop then appears
to depend on an undefined behavior (signed underflow) to complete.
The fix is to use unsigned integers in both the userspace API and
the local variable.

The intent of this new field in the directory entry is to
allow a subsequent lookup to know how many blocks, which
are contiguous with the inode, contain metadata which relates
to the inode. This will then allow the issuing of a single
read to read these blocks, rather than reading the inode
first, and then issuing a second read for the metadata.
This only works under some fairly strict conditions, since
we do not have back pointers from inodes to directory entries
we must ensure that the blocks referenced in this way will
always belong to the inode.
This rules out being able to use this system for indirect
blocks, as these can change as a result of truncate/rewrite.
So the idea here is to restrict this to xattr blocks only
for the time being. For most inodes, that means only a
single block. Also, when using ACLs and/or SELinux or
other LSMs, these will be added at inode creation time
so that they will be contiguous with the inode on disk and
also will almost always be needed when we read the inode in
for permissions checks.
Once an xattr block for an inode is allocated, it will never
change until the inode is deallocated.
This patch adds the new field, a further patch will add the
readahead in due course.

Commit cfd280c912 ("net: sync some IP headers with glibc") changed a set of
define's to an enum (with no explanation why) which introduced a bug
in module mip6 where aliases are generated using the IPPROTO_* defines;
mip6 doesn't load if require_module called with the aliases from
xfrm_get_type().
Reverting this change back to define's to fix the aliases.
modinfo mip6 (before this change)
alias: xfrm-type-10-IPPROTO_DSTOPTS
alias: xfrm-type-10-IPPROTO_ROUTING
modinfo mip6 (after this change)
alias: xfrm-type-10-43
alias: xfrm-type-10-60

In case we will get regulatory request with rule
where max_bandwidth_khz is set to 0 handle this
case as a special one.
If max_bandwidth_khz == 0 we should calculate maximum
available bandwidth base on all frequency contiguous rules.
In case we need auto calculation we just have to set:
country PL: DFS-ETSI
(2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
(5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20)
(5250 - 5330 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20), DFS
(5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS
This mean we will calculate maximum bw for rules where
AUTO (N/A) were set, 160MHz (5330 - 5170) in example above.
So we will get:
(5170 - 5250 @ 160), (N/A, 20)
(5250 - 5330 @ 160), (N/A, 20), DFS
In other case:
country FR: DFS-ETSI
(2402 - 2482 @ 40), (N/A, 20)
(5170 - 5250 @ AUTO), (N/A, 20)
(5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS
(5490 - 5710 @ 80), (N/A, 27), DFS
We will get 80MHz (5250 - 5170):
(5170 - 5250 @ 80), (N/A, 20)
(5250 - 5330 @ 80), (N/A, 20), DFS
Base on this calculations we will set correct channel
bandwidth flags (eg. IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_80MHZ).
We don't need any changes in CRDA or internal regulatory.

[extend nl80211 description a bit, fix typo]

The scheduled scan matchsets were intended to be a list of filters,
with the found BSS having to pass at least one of them to be passed
to the host. When the RSSI attribute was added, however, this was
broken and currently wpa_supplicant adds that attribute in its own
matchset; however, it doesn't intend that to mean that anything
that passes the RSSI filter should be passed to the host, instead
it wants it to mean that everything needs to also have higher RSSI.
This is semantically problematic because we have a list of filters
like [ SSID1, SSID2, SSID3, RSSI ] with no real indication which
one should be OR'ed and which one AND'ed.
To fix this, move the RSSI filter attribute into each matchset. As
we need to stay backward compatible, treat a matchset with only the
RSSI attribute as a "default RSSI filter" for all other matchsets,
but only if there are other matchsets (an RSSI-only matchset by
itself is still desirable.)
To make driver implementation easier, keep a global min_rssi_thold
for the entire request as well. The only affected driver is ath6kl.
I found this when I looked into the code after Raja Mani submitted
a patch fixing the n_match_sets calculation to disregard the RSSI,
but that patch didn't address the semantic issue.
