Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are: 1) Don't use userspace datatypes in bridge netfilter code, from Tobin Harding. 2) Iterate only once over the expectation table when removing the helper module, instead of once per-netns, from Florian Westphal. 3) Extra sanitization in xt_hook_ops_alloc() to return error in case we ever pass zero hooks, xt_hook_ops_alloc(): 4) Handle NFPROTO_INET from the logging core infrastructure, from Liping Zhang. 5) Autoload loggers when TRACE target is used from rules, this doesn't change the behaviour in case the user already selected nfnetlink_log as preferred way to print tracing logs, also from Liping Zhang. 6) Conntrack slabs with SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN to allow rearranging fields by cache lines, increases the size of entries in 11% per entry. From Florian Westphal. 7) Skip zone comparison if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ZONES=n, from Florian. 8) Remove useless defensive check in nf_logger_find_get() from Shivani Bhardwaj. 9) Remove zone extension as place it in the conntrack object, this is always include in the hashing and we expect more intensive use of zones since containers are in place. Also from Florian Westphal. 10) Owner match now works from any namespace, from Eric Bierdeman. 11) Make sure we only reply with TCP reset to TCP traffic from nf_reject_ipv4, patch from Liping Zhang. 12) Introduce --nflog-size to indicate amount of network packet bytes that are copied to userspace via log message, from Vishwanath Pai. This obsoletes --nflog-range that has never worked, it was designed to achieve this but it has never worked. 13) Introduce generic macros for nf_tables object generation masks. 14) Use generation mask in table, chain and set objects in nf_tables. This allows fixes interferences with ongoing preparation phase of the commit protocol and object listings going on at the same time. This update is introduced in three patches, one per object. 15) Check if the object is active in the next generation for element deactivation in the rbtree implementation, given that deactivation happens from the commit phase path we have to observe the future status of the object. 16) Support for deletion of just added elements in the hash set type. 17) Allow to resize hashtable from /proc entry, not only from the obscure /sys entry that maps to the module parameter, from Florian Westphal. 18) Get rid of NFT_BASECHAIN_DISABLED, this code is not exercised anymore since we tear down the ruleset whenever the netdevice goes away. 19) Support for matching inverted set lookups, from Arturo Borrero. 20) Simplify the iptables_mangle_hook() by removing a superfluous extra branch. 21) Introduce ether_addr_equal_masked() and use it from the netfilter codebase, from Joe Perches. 22) Remove references to "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key" from the Netfilter Kconfig description given that this toggle doesn't exists already for 10 years, from Moritz Sichert. 23) Introduce generic NF_INVF() and use it from the xtables codebase, from Joe Perches. 24) Setting logger to NONE via /proc was not working unless explicit nul-termination was included in the string. This fixes seems to leave the former behaviour there, so we don't break backward. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Just the RGMII/SMII Control/Status register differs. So This patch aims to reorganize and enhance the PCS support. It removes the existent support from the dwmac1000/dwmac4_core.c moving basic PCS functions inside a new file called: stmmac_pcs.h. The patch also reviews the available APIs to be better shared among different hardware and easily enhanced to support new features.

2016-06-17can: rcar_canfd: Add Renesas R-Car CAN FD driverRamesh Shanmugasundaram
This patch adds support for the CAN FD controller found in Renesas R-Car SoCs. The controller operates in CAN FD only mode by default. CAN FD mode supports both Classical CAN & CAN FD frame formats. The controller supports ISO 11898-1:2015 CAN FD format only. This controller supports two channels and the driver can enable either or both of the channels. Driver uses Rx FIFOs (one per channel) for reception & Common FIFOs (one per channel) for transmission. Rx filter rules are configured to the minimum (one per channel) and it accepts Standard, Extended, Data & Remote Frame combinations. Note: There are few documentation errors in R-Car Gen3 Hardware User Manual v0.5E with respect to CAN FD controller. They are listed below: 1. CAN FD interrupt numbers 29 & 30 are listed as per channel interrupts. However, they are common to both channels (i.e.) they are global and channel interrupts respectively. 2. CANFD clock is derived from PLL1. This is not documented. 3. CANFD clock is further divided by (1/2) within the CAN FD controller. This is not documented. 4. The minimum value of NTSEG1 in RSCFDnCFDCmNCFG register is 2 Tq. It is specified 4 Tq in the manual. 5. The maximum number of message RAM area the controller can use is 3584 bytes. It is specified 10752 bytes in the manual.

2016-06-08scsi: fix race between simultaneous decrements of ->host_failedWei Fang
sas_ata_strategy_handler() adds the works of the ata error handler to system_unbound_wq. This workqueue asynchronously runs work items, so the ata error handler will be performed concurrently on different CPUs. In this case, ->host_failed will be decreased simultaneously in scsi_eh_finish_cmd() on different CPUs, and become abnormal. It will lead to permanently inequality between ->host_failed and ->host_busy, and scsi error handler thread won't start running. IO errors after that won't be handled. Since all scmds must have been handled in the strategy handler, just remove the decrement in scsi_eh_finish_cmd() and zero ->host_busy after the strategy handler to fix this race.

2016-06-08leds: core: Fix brightness setting upon hardware blinking enabledTony Makkiel
Commit 76931edd54f8 ("leds: fix brightness changing when software blinking is active") changed the semantics of led_set_brightness() which according to the documentation should disable blinking upon any brightness setting. Moreover it made it different for soft blink case, where it was possible to change blink brightness, and for hardware blink case, where setting any brightness greater than 0 was ignored. While the change itself is against the documentation claims, it was driven also by the fact that timer trigger remained active after turning blinking off. Fixing that would have required major refactoring in the led-core, led-class, and led-triggers because of cyclic dependencies. Finally, it has been decided that allowing for brightness change during blinking is beneficial as it can be accomplished without disturbing blink rhythm. The change in brightness setting semantics will not affect existing LED class drivers that implement blink_set op thanks to the LED_BLINK_SW flag introduced by this patch. The flag state will be from now on checked in led_set_brightness() which will allow to distinguish between software and hardware blink mode. In the latter case the control will be passed directly to the drivers which apply their semantics on brightness set, which is disable the blinking in case of most such drivers. New drivers will apply new semantics and just change the brightness while hardware blinking is on, if possible. The issue was smuggled by subsequent LED core improvements, which modified the code that originally introduced the problem.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jic23/iio into staging-linus Jonathan writes: First round of iio fixes for the 4.7 cycle. A slightly bumper set due to travel delaying the pull request and a fair few issues with the recent merge window patches. Patches all over the place. The st-sensors one is probably the most involved, but definitly solves the issues seen. Note there are some other issues around that handler (and the fact that a lot of boards tie a level interrupt chip to an edge interrupt only irq chip). These are not regressions however, so will turn up the slow route. * core - iio_trigger_attach_pollfunc had some really badly wrong error handling. Another nasty triggered whilst chasing down issues with the st sensors rework below. * ad5592r - fix an off by one error when allocating channels. * am2315 - a stray mutex unlock before we ever take the lock. * apds9960 - missing a parent in the driver model (which should be the i2c device). Result is it doesn't turn up under /sys/bus/i2c/devices which some userspace code uses for repeatable device identification. * as3935 - ABI usage bug which meant a processed value was reported as raw. Now reporting scale as well to ensure userspace has the info it needs. - Don't return processed value via the buffer - it doesn't conform to the ABI and will overflow in some cases. - Fix a wrongly sized buffer which would overflow trashing part of the stack. Also move it onto the heap as part of the fix. * bh1780 - a missing return after write in debugfs lead to an incorrect read and a null pointer dereference. - dereferencing the wrong pointer in suspend and resume leading to unpredictable results. - assign a static name to avoid accidentally ending up with no name if loaded via device tree. * bmi160 - output data rate for the accelerometer was incorrectly reported. Fix it. - writing the output data rate was also wrong due to reverse parameters. * bmp280 - error message for wrong chip ID gave the wrong expected value. * hdc100x - mask for writing the integration time was wrong allowin g us to get 'stuck' in a particular value with no way back. - temperature reported in celsius rather than millicelsius as per the ABI. - Get rid of some incorrect data shifting which lead to readings being rather incorrect. * max44000 - drop scale attribute for proximity as it is an unscaled value (depends on what is in range rather than anything knowable at the detector). * st-pressure - ABI compliance fixes - units were wrong. * st-sensors - We introduced some nasty issues with the recent switch over to a a somewhat threaded handler in that we broke using a software trigger with these devices. Now do it properly. It's a larger patch than ideal for a fix, but the logic is straight forward. - Make sure the trigger is initialized before requesting the interrupt. This matters now the interrupt can be shared. Before it was ugly and wrong but short of flakey hardware could not be triggered. - Hammer down the dataready pin at boot - otherwise with really unlucky timing things could get interestingly wedged requiring a hard power down of the chip.

2016-06-07net: sched: do not acquire qdisc spinlock in qdisc/class stats dumpEric Dumazet
Large tc dumps (tc -s {qdisc|class} sh dev ethX) done by Google BwE host agent [1] are problematic at scale : For each qdisc/class found in the dump, we currently lock the root qdisc spinlock in order to get stats. Sampling stats every 5 seconds from thousands of HTB classes is a challenge when the root qdisc spinlock is under high pressure. Not only the dumps take time, they also slow down the fast path (queue/dequeue packets) by 10 % to 20 % in some cases. An audit of existing qdiscs showed that sch_fq_codel is the only qdisc that might need the qdisc lock in fq_codel_dump_stats() and fq_codel_dump_class_stats() In v2 of this patch, I now use the Qdisc running seqcount to provide consistent reads of packets/bytes counters, regardless of 32/64 bit arches. I also changed rate estimators to use the same infrastructure so that they no longer need to lock root qdisc lock.

2016-06-05devpts: Make each mount of devpts an independent filesystem.Eric W. Biederman
The /dev/ptmx device node is changed to lookup the directory entry "pts" in the same directory as the /dev/ptmx device node was opened in. If there is a "pts" entry and that entry is a devpts filesystem /dev/ptmx uses that filesystem. Otherwise the open of /dev/ptmx fails. The DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES configuration option is removed, so that userspace can now safely depend on each mount of devpts creating a new instance of the filesystem. Each mount of devpts is now a separate and equal filesystem. Reserved ttys are now available to all instances of devpts where the mounter is in the initial mount namespace. A new vfs helper path_pts is introduced that finds a directory entry named "pts" in the directory of the passed in path, and changes the passed in path to point to it. The helper path_pts uses a function path_parent_directory that was factored out of follow_dotdot. In the implementation of devpts: - devpts_mnt is killed as it is no longer meaningful if all mounts of devpts are equal. - pts_sb_from_inode is replaced by just inode->i_sb as all cached inodes in the tty layer are now from the devpts filesystem. - devpts_add_ref is rolled into the new function devpts_ptmx. And the unnecessary inode hold is removed. - devpts_del_ref is renamed devpts_release and reduced to just a deacrivate_super. - The newinstance mount option continues to be accepted but is now ignored. In devpts_fs.h definitions for when !CONFIG_UNIX98_PTYS are removed as they are never used. Documentation/filesystems/devices.txt is updated to describe the current situation. This has been verified to work properly on openwrt-15.05, centos5, centos6, centos7, debian-6.0.2, debian-7.9, debian-8.2, ubuntu-14.04.3, ubuntu-15.10, fedora23, magia-5, mint-17.3, opensuse-42.1, slackware-14.1, gentoo-20151225 (13.0?), archlinux-2015-12-01. With the caveat that on centos6 and on slackware-14.1 that there wind up being two instances of the devpts filesystem mounted on /dev/pts, the lower copy does not end up getting used.
