2012-04-24ath9k: Fix IDLE PowersaveSujith Manoharan
* PS_WAIT_FOR_TX_ACK is used in network-sleep mode and checking it for handling IDLE transitions is incorrect. Fix this. * RX PCU/DMA engines have to be stopped before setting the chip into full-sleep mode - otherwise the chip becomes mute. * Make things a bit clear by checking explicitly for network-sleep mode in the tx() routine and add a couple of debug statements to aid PS debugging.

2012-04-24mac80211: fix num_mcast_sta counting issuesFelix Fietkau
Moving a STA to an AP VLAN prevents num_mcast_sta from being decremented once the STA leaves, because sta->sdata changes. Fix this by checking for AP VLANs as well. Also exclude 4-addr VLAN stations from num_mcast_sta - remote 4-addr stations ignore 3-address multicast frames anyway. In a typical bridge configuration they receive the same packets as 4-address unicast. This patch also fixes clearing the sdata->u.vlan.sta pointer when the STA is removed from a 4-addr VLAN.

Commit 35f3d14db (pipe: add support for shrinking and growing pipes) added a slowdown for splice(socket -> pipe), as we might grow the spd used in skb_splice_bits() for each skb we process in splice() syscall. Its not needed since skb lengths are capped. The default on-stack arrays are more than enough. Use MAX_SKB_FRAGS instead of PIPE_DEF_BUFFERS to describe the reasonable limit per skb.

2012-04-23tcp: introduce tcp_try_coalesceEric Dumazet
commit c8628155ece3 (tcp: reduce out_of_order memory use) took care of coalescing tcp segments provided by legacy devices (linear skbs) We extend this idea to fragged skbs, as their truesize can be heavy. ixgbe for example uses 256+1024+PAGE_SIZE/2 = 3328 bytes per segment. Use this coalescing strategy for receive queue too. This contributes to reduce number of tcp collapses, at minimal cost, and reduces memory overhead and packets drops.

Configure vif parameters in firmware (default vlan, vif id, default priority, allowed priorities) according to values received from NIC. 2. Configure FW to strip/add default vlan according to afex vlan mode. 3. Notify link up to OS only after vif is fully initialized. 4. Support vif list set/get requests and configure FW accordingly. 5.

2012-04-23tcp: sk_add_backlog() is too agressive for TCPEric Dumazet
While investigating TCP performance problems on 10Gb+ links, we found a tcp sender was dropping lot of incoming ACKS because of sk_rcvbuf limit in sk_add_backlog(), especially if receiver doesnt use GRO/LRO and sends one ACK every two MSS segments. A sender usually tweaks sk_sndbuf, but sk_rcvbuf stays at its default value (87380), allowing a too small backlog. A TCP ACK, even being small, can consume nearly same truesize space than outgoing packets. Using sk_rcvbuf + sk_sndbuf as a limit makes sense and is fast to compute. Performance results on netperf, single flow, receiver with disabled GRO/LRO : 7500 Mbits instead of 6050 Mbits, no more TCPBacklogDrop increments at sender.

2012-04-23mm: fix s390 BUG by __set_page_dirty_no_writeback on swapHugh Dickins
Mel reports a BUG_ON(slot == NULL) in radix_tree_tag_set() on s390 3.0.13: called from __set_page_dirty_nobuffers() when page_remove_rmap() tries to transfer dirty flag from s390 storage key to struct page and radix_tree. That would be because of reclaim's shrink_page_list() calling add_to_swap() on this page at the same time: first PageSwapCache is set (causing page_mapping(page) to appear as &swapper_space), then page->private set, then tree_lock taken, then page inserted into radix_tree - so there's an interval before taking the lock when the radix_tree slot is empty. We could fix this by moving __add_to_swap_cache()'s spin_lock_irq up before the SetPageSwapCache. But a better fix is simply to do what's five years overdue: Ken Chen introduced __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() (if !PageDirty TestSetPageDirty) for tmpfs to skip all the radix_tree overhead, and swap is just the same - it ignores the radix_tree tag, and does not participate in dirty page accounting, so should be using __set_page_dirty_no_writeback() too. s390 testing now confirms that this does indeed fix the problem.

2012-04-24md: fix possible corruption of array metadata on shutdown.NeilBrown
commit c744a65c1e2d59acc54333ce8 md: don't set md arrays to readonly on shutdown. removed the possibility of a 'BUG' when data is written to an array that has just been switched to read-only, but also introduced the possibility that the array metadata could be corrupted. If, when md_notify_reboot gets the mddev lock, the array is in a state where it is assembled but hasn't been started (as can happen if the personality module is not available, or in other unusual situations), then incorrect metadata will be written out making it impossible to re-assemble the array. So only call __md_stop_writes() if the array has actually been activated. This patch is needed for any stable kernel which has had the above commit applied.

2012-04-24md: don't call ->add_disk unless there is good reason.NeilBrown
Commit 7bfec5f35c68121e7b18 md/raid5: If there is a spare and a want_replacement device, start replacement. cause md_check_recovery to call ->add_disk much more often. Instead of only when the array is degraded, it is now called whenever md_check_recovery finds anything useful to do, which includes updating the metadata for clean<->dirty transition. This causes unnecessary work, and causes info messages from ->add_disk to be reported much too often. So refine md_check_recovery to only do any actual recovery checking (including ->add_disk) if MD_RECOVERY_NEEDED is set. This fix is suitable for 3.3.y: Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Reported-by: Jan Ceuleers <jan.ceuleers@computer.org> Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
