Pull vfs update from Al Viro:

 - big one - consolidation of descriptor-related logics; almost all of
   that is moved to fs/file.c

   (BTW, I'm seriously tempted to rename the result to fd.c.  As it is,
   we have a situation when file_table.c is about handling of struct
   file and file.c is about handling of descriptor tables; the reasons
   are historical - file_table.c used to be about a static array of
   struct file we used to have way back).

   A lot of stray ends got cleaned up and converted to saner primitives,
   disgusting mess in android/binder.c is still disgusting, but at least
   doesn't poke so much in descriptor table guts anymore.  A bunch of
   relatively minor races got fixed in process, plus an ext4 struct file
   leak.

 - related thing - fget_light() partially unuglified; see fdget() in
   there (and yes, it generates the code as good as we used to have).

 - also related - bits of Cyrill's procfs stuff that got entangled into
   that work; _not_ all of it, just the initial move to fs/proc/fd.c and
   switch of fdinfo to seq_file.

 - Alex's fs/coredump.c spiltoff - the same story, had been easier to
   take that commit than mess with conflicts.  The rest is a separate
   pile, this was just a mechanical code movement.

 - a few misc patches all over the place.  Not all for this cycle,
   there'll be more (and quite a few currently sit in akpm's tree)."

Fix up trivial conflicts in the android binder driver, and some fairly
simple conflicts due to two different changes to the sock_alloc_file()
interface ("take descriptor handling from sock_alloc_file() to callers"
vs "net: Providing protocol type via system.sockprotoname xattr of
/proc/PID/fd entries" adding a dentry name to the socket)

 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.

 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
    outgoing networking traffic.  This benefits processes that have very
    many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.

    From Eric Dumazet.

10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
    smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail.  Benefits are
    a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
    allocator c) less waste of space.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.

12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
    limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
    From Stephen Hemminger.

13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
    perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

Pull user namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
 "This is a mostly modest set of changes to enable basic user namespace
  support.  This allows the code to code to compile with user namespaces
  enabled and removes the assumption there is only the initial user
  namespace.  Everything is converted except for the most complex of the
  filesystems: autofs4, 9p, afs, ceph, cifs, coda, fuse, gfs2, ncpfs,
  nfs, ocfs2 and xfs as those patches need a bit more review.

  The strategy is to push kuid_t and kgid_t values are far down into
  subsystems and filesystems as reasonable.  Leaving the make_kuid and
  from_kuid operations to happen at the edge of userspace, as the values
  come off the disk, and as the values come in from the network.
  Letting compile type incompatible compile errors (present when user
  namespaces are enabled) guide me to find the issues.

  The most tricky areas have been the places where we had an implicit
  union of uid and gid values and were storing them in an unsigned int.
  Those places were converted into explicit unions.  I made certain to
  handle those places with simple trivial patches.

  Out of that work I discovered we have generic interfaces for storing
  quota by projid.  I had never heard of the project identifiers before.
  Adding full user namespace support for project identifiers accounts
  for most of the code size growth in my git tree.

  Ultimately there will be work to relax privlige checks from
  "capable(FOO)" to "ns_capable(user_ns, FOO)" where it is safe allowing
  root in a user names to do those things that today we only forbid to
  non-root users because it will confuse suid root applications.

  While I was pushing kuid_t and kgid_t changes deep into the audit code
  I made a few other cleanups.  I capitalized on the fact we process
  netlink messages in the context of the message sender.  I removed
  usage of NETLINK_CRED, and started directly using current->tty.

  Some of these patches have also made it into maintainer trees, with no
  problems from identical code from different trees showing up in
  linux-next.

  After reading through all of this code I feel like I might be able to
  win a game of kernel trivial pursuit."

Pull cgroup hierarchy update from Tejun Heo:
 "Currently, different cgroup subsystems handle nested cgroups
  completely differently.  There's no consistency among subsystems and
  the behaviors often are outright broken.

  People at least seem to agree that the broken hierarhcy behaviors need
  to be weeded out if any progress is gonna be made on this front and
  that the fallouts from deprecating the broken behaviors should be
  acceptable especially given that the current behaviors don't make much
  sense when nested.

  This patch makes cgroup emit warning messages if cgroups for
  subsystems with broken hierarchy behavior are nested to prepare for
  fixing them in the future.  This was put in a separate branch because
  more related changes were expected (didn't make it this round) and the
  memory cgroup wanted to pull in this and make changes on top."

Pull workqueue changes from Tejun Heo:
 "This is workqueue updates for v3.7-rc1.  A lot of activities this
  round including considerable API and behavior cleanups.

   * delayed_work combines a timer and a work item.  The handling of the
     timer part has always been a bit clunky leading to confusing
     cancelation API with weird corner-case behaviors.  delayed_work is
     updated to use new IRQ safe timer and cancelation now works as
     expected.

   * Another deficiency of delayed_work was lack of the counterpart of
     mod_timer() which led to cancel+queue combinations or open-coded
     timer+work usages.  mod_delayed_work[_on]() are added.

     These two delayed_work changes make delayed_work provide interface
     and behave like timer which is executed with process context.

   * A work item could be executed concurrently on multiple CPUs, which
     is rather unintuitive and made flush_work() behavior confusing and
     half-broken under certain circumstances.  This problem doesn't
     exist for non-reentrant workqueues.  While non-reentrancy check
     isn't free, the overhead is incurred only when a work item bounces
     across different CPUs and even in simulated pathological scenario
     the overhead isn't too high.

     All workqueues are made non-reentrant.  This removes the
     distinction between flush_[delayed_]work() and
     flush_[delayed_]_work_sync().  The former is now as strong as the
     latter and the specified work item is guaranteed to have finished
     execution of any previous queueing on return.

   * In addition to the various bug fixes, Lai redid and simplified CPU
     hotplug handling significantly.

   * Joonsoo introduced system_highpri_wq and used it during CPU
     hotplug.

  There are two merge commits - one to pull in IRQ safe timer from
  tip/timers/core and the other to pull in CPU hotplug fixes from
  wq/for-3.6-fixes as Lai's hotplug restructuring depended on them."

Fixed a number of trivial conflicts, but the more interesting conflicts
were silent ones where the deprecated interfaces had been used by new
code in the merge window, and thus didn't cause any real data conflicts.

Tejun pointed out a few of them, I fixed a couple more.

c9e6bc644e net: add gro_cells infrastructure
This adds a new include file (include/net/gro_cells.h), to bring GRO
(Generic Receive Offload) capability to tunnels, in a modular way.

Because tunnels receive path is lockless, and GRO adds a serialization
using a napi_struct, I chose to add an array of up to
DEFAULT_MAX_NUM_RSS_QUEUES cells, so that multi queue devices wont be
slowed down because of GRO layer.

skb_get_rx_queue() is used as selector.

In the future, we might add optional fanout capabilities, using rxhash
for example.

69b08f62e1 net: use bigger pages in __netdev_alloc_frag
We currently use percpu order-0 pages in __netdev_alloc_frag
to deliver fragments used by __netdev_alloc_skb()

Depending on NIC driver and arch being 32 or 64 bit, it allows a page to
be split in several fragments (between 1 and 8), assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096

Switching to bigger pages (32768 bytes for PAGE_SIZE=4096 case) allows :

- Better filling of space (the ending hole overhead is less an issue)

- Less calls to page allocator or accesses to page->_count

- Could allow struct skb_shared_info futures changes without major
  performance impact.

This patch implements a transparent fallback to smaller
pages in case of memory pressure.

It also uses a standard "struct page_frag" instead of a custom one.

5640f76858 net: use a per task frag allocator
We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg()
operations.

This page is used to build fragments for skbs.

Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into
single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent)

But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly
idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page

Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need
about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit
page allocator more than wanted.

This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages,
if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure.

(up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86)

This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device,
but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are
mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck
mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled.

Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments,
but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a
fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536

Successfully tested on various ethernet devices.

c0d680e577 net: do not disable sg for packets requiring no checksum
A change in a series of VLAN-related changes appears to have
inadvertently disabled the use of the scatter gather feature of
network cards for transmission of non-IP ethernet protocols like ATA
over Ethernet (AoE).  Below is a reference to the commit that
introduces a "harmonize_features" function that turns off scatter
gather when the NIC does not support hardware checksumming for the
ethernet protocol of an sk buff.

  commit f01a5236bd
  Author: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
  Date:   Sun Jan 9 06:23:31 2011 +0000

      net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().

The can_checksum_protocol function is not equipped to consider a
protocol that does not require checksumming.  Calling it for a
protocol that requires no checksum is inappropriate.

The patch below has harmonize_features call can_checksum_protocol when
the protocol needs a checksum, so that the network layer is not forced
to perform unnecessary skb linearization on the transmission of AoE
packets.  Unnecessary linearization results in decreased performance
and increased memory pressure, as reported here:

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-mm/msg15184.html

The problem has probably not been widely experienced yet, because
only recently has the kernel.org-distributed aoe driver acquired the
ability to use payloads of over a page in size, with the patchset
recently included in the mm tree:

  https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/8/28/140

The coraid.com-distributed aoe driver already could use payloads of
greater than a page in size, but its users generally do not use the
newest kernels.

8c7f6edbda cgroup: mark subsystems with broken hierarchy support and whine if cgroups are nested for them
Currently, cgroup hierarchy support is a mess.  cpu related subsystems
behave correctly - configuration, accounting and control on a parent
properly cover its children.  blkio and freezer completely ignore
hierarchy and treat all cgroups as if they're directly under the root
cgroup.  Others show yet different behaviors.

These differing interpretations of cgroup hierarchy make using cgroup
confusing and it impossible to co-mount controllers into the same
hierarchy and obtain sane behavior.

Eventually, we want full hierarchy support from all subsystems and
probably a unified hierarchy.  Users using separate hierarchies
expecting completely different behaviors depending on the mounted
subsystem is deterimental to making any progress on this front.

This patch adds cgroup_subsys.broken_hierarchy and sets it to %true
for controllers which are lacking in hierarchy support.  The goal of
this patch is two-fold.

* Move users away from using hierarchy on currently non-hierarchical
  subsystems, so that implementing proper hierarchy support on those
  doesn't surprise them.

* Keep track of which controllers are broken how and nudge the
  subsystems to implement proper hierarchy support.

For now, start with a single warning message.  We can whine louder
later on.

v2: Fixed a typo spotted by Michal. Warning message updated.

v3: Updated memcg part so that it doesn't generate warning in the
    cases where .use_hierarchy=false doesn't make the behavior
    different from root.use_hierarchy=true.  Fixed a typo spotted by
    Glauber.

v4: Check ->broken_hierarchy after cgroup creation is complete so that
    ->create() can affect the result per Michal.  Dropped unnecessary
    memcg root handling per Michal.

8a8e04df47 cgroup: Assign subsystem IDs during compile time
WARNING: With this change it is impossible to load external built
controllers anymore.

In case where CONFIG_NETPRIO_CGROUP=m and CONFIG_NET_CLS_CGROUP=m is
set, corresponding subsys_id should also be a constant. Up to now,
net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id would be of the type int and
the value would be assigned during runtime.

By switching the macro definition IS_SUBSYS_ENABLED from IS_BUILTIN
to IS_ENABLED, all *_subsys_id will have constant value. That means we
need to remove all the code which assumes a value can be assigned to
net_prio_subsys_id and net_cls_subsys_id.

A close look is necessary on the RCU part which was introduces by
following patch:

  commit f845172531
  Author:	Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>  Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010
  Committer:	David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>  Mon May 24 09:12:34 2010

  cls_cgroup: Store classid in struct sock

  Tis code was added to init_cgroup_cls()

	  /* We can't use rcu_assign_pointer because this is an int. */
	  smp_wmb();
	  net_cls_subsys_id = net_cls_subsys.subsys_id;

  respectively to exit_cgroup_cls()

	  net_cls_subsys_id = -1;
	  synchronize_rcu();

  and in module version of task_cls_classid()

	  rcu_read_lock();
	  id = rcu_dereference(net_cls_subsys_id);
	  if (id >= 0)
		  classid = container_of(task_subsys_state(p, id),
					 struct cgroup_cls_state, css)->classid;
	  rcu_read_unlock();

Without an explicit explaination why the RCU part is needed. (The
rcu_deference was fixed by exchanging it to rcu_derefence_index_check()
in a later commit, but that is a minor detail.)

So here is my pondering why it was introduced and why it safe to
remove it now. Note that this code was copied over to net_prio the
reasoning holds for that subsystem too.

The idea behind the RCU use for net_cls_subsys_id is to make sure we
get a valid pointer back from task_subsys_state(). task_subsys_state()
is just blindly accessing the subsys array and returning the
pointer. Obviously, passing in -1 as id into task_subsys_state()
returns an invalid value (out of lower bound).

So this code makes sure that only after module is loaded and the
subsystem registered, the id is assigned.

Before unregistering the module all old readers must have left the
critical section. This is done by assigning -1 to the id and issuing a
synchronized_rcu(). Any new readers wont call task_subsys_state()
anymore and therefore it is safe to unregister the subsystem.

The new code relies on the same trick, but it looks at the subsys
pointer return by task_subsys_state() (remember the id is constant
and therefore we allways have a valid index into the subsys
array).

No precautions need to be taken during module loading
module. Eventually, all CPUs will get a valid pointer back from
task_subsys_state() because rebind_subsystem() which is called after
the module init() function will assigned subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] the
newly loaded module subsystem pointer.

When the subsystem is about to be removed, rebind_subsystem() will
called before the module exit() function. In this case,
rebind_subsys() will assign subsys[net_cls_subsys_id] a NULL pointer
and then it calls synchronize_rcu(). All old readers have left by then
the critical section. Any new reader wont access the subsystem
anymore.  At this point we are safe to unregister the subsystem. No
synchronize_rcu() call is needed.

6862234238 net: small bug on rxhash calculation
In the current rxhash calculation function, while the
sorting of the ports/addrs is coherent (you get the
same rxhash for packets sharing the same 4-tuple, in
both directions), ports and addrs are sorted
independently. This implies packets from a connection
between the same addresses but crossed ports hash to
the same rxhash.

For example, traffic between A=S:l and B=L:s is hashed
(in both directions) from {L, S, {s, l}}. The same
rxhash is obtained for packets between C=S:s and D=L:l.

This patch ensures that you either swap both addrs and ports,
or you swap none. Traffic between A and B, and traffic
between C and D, get their rxhash from different sources
({L, S, {l, s}} for A<->B, and {L, S, {s, l}} for C<->D)

The patch is co-written with Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>

dbe9a4173e scm: Don't use struct ucred in NETLINK_CB and struct scm_cookie.
Passing uids and gids on NETLINK_CB from a process in one user
namespace to a process in another user namespace can result in the
wrong uid or gid being presented to userspace.  Avoid that problem by
passing kuids and kgids instead.

- define struct scm_creds for use in scm_cookie and netlink_skb_parms
  that holds uid and gid information in kuid_t and kgid_t.

- Modify scm_set_cred to fill out scm_creds by heand instead of using
  cred_to_ucred to fill out struct ucred.  This conversion ensures
  userspace does not get incorrect uid or gid values to look at.

- Modify scm_recv to convert from struct scm_creds to struct ucred
  before copying credential values to userspace.

- Modify __scm_send to populate struct scm_creds on in the scm_cookie,
  instead of just copying struct ucred from userspace.

- Modify netlink_sendmsg to copy scm_creds instead of struct ucred
  into the NETLINK_CB.

c6c13965f4 net: add unknown state to sysfs NIC duplex export
Currently when the NIC duplex state is DUPLEX_UNKNOWN it is exported as
full through sysfs, this patch adds support for DUPLEX_UNKNOWN. It is
handled the same way as in ethtool.

8336886f78 tcp: TCP Fast Open Server - support TFO listeners
This patch builds on top of the previous patch to add the support
for TFO listeners. This includes -

1. allocating, properly initializing, and managing the per listener
fastopen_queue structure when TFO is enabled

2. changes to the inet_csk_accept code to support TFO. E.g., the
request_sock can no longer be freed upon accept(), not until 3WHS
finishes

3. allowing a TCP_SYN_RECV socket to properly poll() and sendmsg()
if it's a TFO socket

4. properly closing a TFO listener, and a TFO socket before 3WHS
finishes

5. supporting TCP_FASTOPEN socket option

6. modifying tcp_check_req() to use to check a TFO socket as well
as request_sock

7. supporting TCP's TFO cookie option

8. adding a new SYN-ACK retransmit handler to use the timer directly
off the TFO socket rather than the listener socket. Note that TFO
server side will not retransmit anything other than SYN-ACK until
the 3WHS is completed.

The patch also contains an important function
"reqsk_fastopen_remove()" to manage the somewhat complex relation
between a listener, its request_sock, and the corresponding child
socket. See the comment above the function for the detail.

d1a53dfd11 net: fix documentation of skb_needs_linearize().
skb_needs_linearize() does not check highmem DMA as it does not call
illegal_highdma() anymore, so there is no need to mention highmem DMA here.

(Indeed, ~NETIF_F_SG flag, which is checked in skb_needs_linearize(), can
be set when illegal_highdma() returns true, and we are assured that
illegal_highdma() is invoked prior to skb_needs_linearize() as
skb_needs_linearize() is a static method called only once.
But ~NETIF_F_SG can be set not only there in this same invocation path.
It can also be set when can_checksum_protocol() returns false).

Convert skb_need_linearize() to use precomputed features.
