4381548237 net: sock_def_readable() and friends RCU conversion
sk_callback_lock rwlock actually protects sk->sk_sleep pointer, so we
need two atomic operations (and associated dirtying) per incoming
packet.

RCU conversion is pretty much needed :

1) Add a new structure, called "struct socket_wq" to hold all fields
that will need rcu_read_lock() protection (currently: a
wait_queue_head_t and a struct fasync_struct pointer).

[Future patch will add a list anchor for wakeup coalescing]

2) Attach one of such structure to each "struct socket" created in
sock_alloc_inode().

3) Respect RCU grace period when freeing a "struct socket_wq"

4) Change sk_sleep pointer in "struct sock" by sk_wq, pointer to "struct
socket_wq"

5) Change sk_sleep() function to use new sk->sk_wq instead of
sk->sk_sleep

6) Change sk_has_sleeper() to wq_has_sleeper() that must be used inside
a rcu_read_lock() section.

7) Change all sk_has_sleeper() callers to :
  - Use rcu_read_lock() instead of read_lock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)
  - Use wq_has_sleeper() to eventually wakeup tasks.
  - Use rcu_read_unlock() instead of read_unlock(&sk->sk_callback_lock)

8) sock_wake_async() is modified to use rcu protection as well.

9) Exceptions :
  macvtap, drivers/net/tun.c, af_unix use integrated "struct socket_wq"
instead of dynamically allocated ones. They dont need rcu freeing.

Some cleanups or followups are probably needed, (possible
sk_callback_lock conversion to a spinlock for example...).

aa39514516 net: sk_sleep() helper
Define a new function to return the waitqueue of a "struct sock".

static inline wait_queue_head_t *sk_sleep(struct sock *sk)
{
	return sk->sk_sleep;
}

Change all read occurrences of sk_sleep by a call to this function.

Needed for a future RCU conversion. sk_sleep wont be a field directly
available.

5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

a57de0b433 net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacks
Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with
receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper
to wrap the memory barrier.

Without the memory barrier, following race can happen.
The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt
and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches.

CPU1                         CPU2

sys_select                   receive packet
  ...                        ...
  __add_wait_queue           update tp->rcv_nxt
  ...                        ...
  tp->rcv_nxt check          sock_def_readable
  ...                        {
  schedule                      ...
                                if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep))
                                        wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep)
                                ...
                             }

If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and
rcv_nxt are opposit to each other.

Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already
passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for
tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask.
In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the
waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1.

The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its
cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side.  The CPU1 will then
endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the
socket.

Calls to poll_wait in following modules were ommited:
	net/bluetooth/af_bluetooth.c
	net/irda/af_irda.c

76181c134f KEYS: Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous
Make request_key() and co fundamentally asynchronous to make it easier for
NFS to make use of them.  There are now accessor functions that do
asynchronous constructions, a wait function to wait for construction to
complete, and a completion function for the key type to indicate completion
of construction.

Note that the construction queue is now gone.  Instead, keys under
construction are linked in to the appropriate keyring in advance, and that
anyone encountering one must wait for it to be complete before they can use
it.  This is done automatically for userspace.

The following auxiliary changes are also made:

 (1) Key type implementation stuff is split from linux/key.h into
     linux/key-type.h.

 (2) AF_RXRPC provides a way to allocate null rxrpc-type keys so that AFS does
     not need to call key_instantiate_and_link() directly.

 (3) Adjust the debugging macros so that they're -Wformat checked even if
     they are disabled, and make it so they can be enabled simply by defining
     __KDEBUG to be consistent with other code of mine.

 (3) Documentation.

1b8d7ae42d [NET]: Make socket creation namespace safe.
This patch passes in the namespace a new socket should be created in
and has the socket code do the appropriate reference counting.  By
virtue of this all socket create methods are touched.  In addition
the socket create methods are modified so that they will fail if
you attempt to create a socket in a non-default network namespace.

Failing if we attempt to create a socket outside of the default
network namespace ensures that as we incrementally make the network stack
network namespace aware we will not export functionality that someone
has not audited and made certain is network namespace safe.
Allowing us to partially enable network namespaces before all of the
exotic protocols are supported.

Any protocol layers I have missed will fail to compile because I now
pass an extra parameter into the socket creation code.

457c4cbc5a [NET]: Make /proc/net per network namespace
This patch makes /proc/net per network namespace.  It modifies the global
variables proc_net and proc_net_stat to be per network namespace.
The proc_net file helpers are modified to take a network namespace argument,
and all of their callers are fixed to pass &init_net for that argument.
This ensures that all of the /proc/net files are only visible and
usable in the initial network namespace until the code behind them
has been updated to be handle multiple network namespaces.

Making /proc/net per namespace is necessary as at least some files
in /proc/net depend upon the set of network devices which is per
network namespace, and even more files in /proc/net have contents
that are relevant to a single network namespace.

2c6b47de17 Cleanup non-arch xtime uses, use get_seconds() or current_kernel_time().
This avoids use of the kernel-internal "xtime" variable directly outside
of the actual time-related functions.  Instead, use the helper functions
that we already have available to us.

This doesn't actually change any behaviour, but this will allow us to
fix the fact that "xtime" isn't updated very often with CONFIG_NO_HZ
(because much of the realtime information is maintained as separate
offsets to 'xtime'), which has caused interfaces that use xtime directly
to get a time that is out of sync with the real-time clock by up to a
third of a second or so.

651350d10f [AF_RXRPC]: Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module for the AFS filesystem to use
Add an interface to the AF_RXRPC module so that the AFS filesystem module can
more easily make use of the services available.  AFS still opens a socket but
then uses the action functions in lieu of sendmsg() and registers an intercept
functions to grab messages before they're queued on the socket Rx queue.

This permits AFS (or whatever) to:

 (1) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.

 (2) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
     rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
     might want to use.

 (3) Avoid calling request_key() at the point of issue of a call or opening of
     a socket.  This is done instead by AFS at the point of open(), unlink() or
     other VFS operation and the key handed through.

 (4) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.

Furthermore:

 (*) The socket buffer markings used by RxRPC are made available for AFS so
     that it can interpret the cooked RxRPC messages itself.

 (*) rxgen (un)marshalling abort codes are made available.


The following documentation for the kernel interface is added to
Documentation/networking/rxrpc.txt:

=========================
AF_RXRPC KERNEL INTERFACE
=========================

The AF_RXRPC module also provides an interface for use by in-kernel utilities
such as the AFS filesystem.  This permits such a utility to:

 (1) Use different keys directly on individual client calls on one socket
     rather than having to open a whole slew of sockets, one for each key it
     might want to use.

 (2) Avoid having RxRPC call request_key() at the point of issue of a call or
     opening of a socket.  Instead the utility is responsible for requesting a
     key at the appropriate point.  AFS, for instance, would do this during VFS
     operations such as open() or unlink().  The key is then handed through
     when the call is initiated.

 (3) Request the use of something other than GFP_KERNEL to allocate memory.

 (4) Avoid the overhead of using the recvmsg() call.  RxRPC messages can be
     intercepted before they get put into the socket Rx queue and the socket
     buffers manipulated directly.

To use the RxRPC facility, a kernel utility must still open an AF_RXRPC socket,
bind an addess as appropriate and listen if it's to be a server socket, but
then it passes this to the kernel interface functions.

The kernel interface functions are as follows:

 (*) Begin a new client call.

	struct rxrpc_call *
	rxrpc_kernel_begin_call(struct socket *sock,
				struct sockaddr_rxrpc *srx,
				struct key *key,
				unsigned long user_call_ID,
				gfp_t gfp);

     This allocates the infrastructure to make a new RxRPC call and assigns
     call and connection numbers.  The call will be made on the UDP port that
     the socket is bound to.  The call will go to the destination address of a
     connected client socket unless an alternative is supplied (srx is
     non-NULL).

     If a key is supplied then this will be used to secure the call instead of
     the key bound to the socket with the RXRPC_SECURITY_KEY sockopt.  Calls
     secured in this way will still share connections if at all possible.

     The user_call_ID is equivalent to that supplied to sendmsg() in the
     control data buffer.  It is entirely feasible to use this to point to a
     kernel data structure.

     If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
     returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
     properly ended.

 (*) End a client call.

	void rxrpc_kernel_end_call(struct rxrpc_call *call);

     This is used to end a previously begun call.  The user_call_ID is expunged
     from AF_RXRPC's knowledge and will not be seen again in association with
     the specified call.

 (*) Send data through a call.

	int rxrpc_kernel_send_data(struct rxrpc_call *call, struct msghdr *msg,
				   size_t len);

     This is used to supply either the request part of a client call or the
     reply part of a server call.  msg.msg_iovlen and msg.msg_iov specify the
     data buffers to be used.  msg_iov may not be NULL and must point
     exclusively to in-kernel virtual addresses.  msg.msg_flags may be given
     MSG_MORE if there will be subsequent data sends for this call.

     The msg must not specify a destination address, control data or any flags
     other than MSG_MORE.  len is the total amount of data to transmit.

 (*) Abort a call.

	void rxrpc_kernel_abort_call(struct rxrpc_call *call, u32 abort_code);

     This is used to abort a call if it's still in an abortable state.  The
     abort code specified will be placed in the ABORT message sent.

 (*) Intercept received RxRPC messages.

	typedef void (*rxrpc_interceptor_t)(struct sock *sk,
					    unsigned long user_call_ID,
					    struct sk_buff *skb);

	void
	rxrpc_kernel_intercept_rx_messages(struct socket *sock,
					   rxrpc_interceptor_t interceptor);

     This installs an interceptor function on the specified AF_RXRPC socket.
     All messages that would otherwise wind up in the socket's Rx queue are
     then diverted to this function.  Note that care must be taken to process
     the messages in the right order to maintain DATA message sequentiality.

     The interceptor function itself is provided with the address of the socket
     and handling the incoming message, the ID assigned by the kernel utility
     to the call and the socket buffer containing the message.

     The skb->mark field indicates the type of message:

	MARK				MEANING
	===============================	=======================================
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_DATA		Data message
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_FINAL_ACK	Final ACK received for an incoming call
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_BUSY		Client call rejected as server busy
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_REMOTE_ABORT	Call aborted by peer
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NET_ERROR	Network error detected
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_LOCAL_ERROR	Local error encountered
	RXRPC_SKB_MARK_NEW_CALL		New incoming call awaiting acceptance

     The remote abort message can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code().
     The two error messages can be probed with rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number().
     A new call can be accepted with rxrpc_kernel_accept_call().

     Data messages can have their contents extracted with the usual bunch of
     socket buffer manipulation functions.  A data message can be determined to
     be the last one in a sequence with rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last().  When a
     data message has been used up, rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered() should be
     called on it..

     Non-data messages should be handled to rxrpc_kernel_free_skb() to dispose
     of.  It is possible to get extra refs on all types of message for later
     freeing, but this may pin the state of a call until the message is finally
     freed.

 (*) Accept an incoming call.

	struct rxrpc_call *
	rxrpc_kernel_accept_call(struct socket *sock,
				 unsigned long user_call_ID);

     This is used to accept an incoming call and to assign it a call ID.  This
     function is similar to rxrpc_kernel_begin_call() and calls accepted must
     be ended in the same way.

     If this function is successful, an opaque reference to the RxRPC call is
     returned.  The caller now holds a reference on this and it must be
     properly ended.

 (*) Reject an incoming call.

	int rxrpc_kernel_reject_call(struct socket *sock);

     This is used to reject the first incoming call on the socket's queue with
     a BUSY message.  -ENODATA is returned if there were no incoming calls.
     Other errors may be returned if the call had been aborted (-ECONNABORTED)
     or had timed out (-ETIME).

 (*) Record the delivery of a data message and free it.

	void rxrpc_kernel_data_delivered(struct sk_buff *skb);

     This is used to record a data message as having been delivered and to
     update the ACK state for the call.  The socket buffer will be freed.

 (*) Free a message.

	void rxrpc_kernel_free_skb(struct sk_buff *skb);

     This is used to free a non-DATA socket buffer intercepted from an AF_RXRPC
     socket.

 (*) Determine if a data message is the last one on a call.

	bool rxrpc_kernel_is_data_last(struct sk_buff *skb);

     This is used to determine if a socket buffer holds the last data message
     to be received for a call (true will be returned if it does, false
     if not).

     The data message will be part of the reply on a client call and the
     request on an incoming call.  In the latter case there will be more
     messages, but in the former case there will not.

 (*) Get the abort code from an abort message.

	u32 rxrpc_kernel_get_abort_code(struct sk_buff *skb);

     This is used to extract the abort code from a remote abort message.

 (*) Get the error number from a local or network error message.

	int rxrpc_kernel_get_error_number(struct sk_buff *skb);

     This is used to extract the error number from a message indicating either
     a local error occurred or a network error occurred.

17926a7932 [AF_RXRPC]: Provide secure RxRPC sockets for use by userspace and kernel both
Provide AF_RXRPC sockets that can be used to talk to AFS servers, or serve
answers to AFS clients.  KerberosIV security is fully supported.  The patches
and some example test programs can be found in:

	http://people.redhat.com/~dhowells/rxrpc/

This will eventually replace the old implementation of kernel-only RxRPC
currently resident in net/rxrpc/.
