This patch adds support for SJW user settings to not set the synchronization jump width (SJW) to 1 in any case when using the in-kernel bittiming calculation. The ip-tool from iproute2 already supports to pass the user defined SJW value. The given SJW value is sanitized with the controller specific sjw_max and the calculated tseg2 value. As the SJW can have values up to 4 providing this value will lead to the maximum possible SJW automatically. A higher SJW allows higher controller oscillator tolerances. Signed-off-by:

Add an event to monitor comm value changes of tasks. Such an event becomes vital, if someone desires to control threads of a process in different manner. A natural characteristic of threads is its comm value, and helpfully application developers have an opportunity to change it in runtime. Reporting about such events via proc connector allows to fine-grain monitoring and control potentials, for instance a process control daemon listening to proc connector and following comm value policies can place specific threads to assigned cgroup partitions. It might be possible to achieve a pale partial one-shot likeness without this update, if an application changes comm value of a thread generator task beforehand, then a new thread is cloned, and after that proc connector listener gets the fork event and reads new thread's comm value from procfs stat file, but this change visibly simplifies and extends the matter.

Since commit 7361c36c (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across user and pid namespaces) af_unix performance dropped a lot. This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(), and release them in read(), usually done from another process, eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing. # Events: 154K cycles # # Overhead Command Shared Object Symbol # ........ ....... .................. ......................... # 10.40% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] put_pid 8.60% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unix_stream_recvmsg 7.87% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unix_stream_sendmsg 6.11% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] do_raw_spin_lock 4.95% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unix_scm_to_skb 4.87% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] pid_nr_ns 4.34% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] cred_to_ucred 2.39% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] unix_destruct_scm 2.24% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sub_preempt_count 1.75% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] fget_light 1.51% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] __mutex_lock_interruptible_slowpath 1.42% hackbench [kernel.kallsyms] [k] sock_alloc_send_pskb This patch includes SCM_CREDENTIALS information in a af_unix message/skb only if requested by the sender, [man 7 unix for details how to include ancillary data using sendmsg() system call] Note: This might break buggy applications that expected SCM_CREDENTIAL from an unaware write() system call, and receiver not using SO_PASSCRED socket option.

Most boards with SysKonnect/Marvell Ethernet have only a single port. For the single port case, use the standard Ethernet driver convention of allocating IRQ when device is brought up rather than at probe time. This patch also adds some additional read after writes to avoid any PCI posting problems when setting the IRQ mask. The error handling of dual port cards is also changed. If second port can not be brought up, then just fail. No point in continuing, since the failure is most certainly because of out of memory. It is worth noting that the dual port skge device has a single irq but two seperate status rings and therefore has two NAPI objects, one for each port. Signed-off-by:

This patch touchs most of the enic port profile handling code. Tried to break it into sub patches without success. The patch mainly does the following: - Port profile operations for a SRIOV VF are modified to work only via its PF - Changes the port profile static struct in struct enic to a pointer. This is because a SRIOV PF has to now hold the port profile information for all its VF's - Moved address registration for VF's during port profile ASSOCIATE time - Most changes in port profile handling code are changes related to indexing into the port profile struct array of a PF for the VF port profile information Signed-off-by:

While playing with a new ADSL box at home, I discovered that ECN blackhole can trigger suboptimal quickack mode on linux : We send one ACK for each incoming data frame, without any delay and eventual piggyback. This is because TCP_ECN_check_ce() considers that if no ECT is seen on a segment, this is because this segment was a retransmit. Refine this heuristic and apply it only if we seen ECT in a previous segment, to detect ECN blackhole at IP level. Signed-off-by:

Device drivers that create and destroy SR-IOV virtual functions via calls to pci_enable_sriov() and pci_disable_sriov can cause catastrophic failures if they attempt to destroy VFs while they are assigned to guest virtual machines. By adding a flag for use by the Xen PCI back to indicate that a device is assigned a device driver can check that flag and avoid destroying VFs while they are assigned and avoid system failures.

In function fec_enet_mii_init(), it uses non-zero pdev->id as part of the condition to check the second fec instance (fec1). This works before the driver supports device tree probe. But in case of device tree probe, pdev->id is -1 which is also non-zero, so the logic becomes broken when device tree probe gets supported. The patch change the logic to check "pdev->id > 0" as the part of the condition for identifying fec1. Signed-off-by:

FEC can work without a phy reset on some platforms, which means not very platform necessarily have a phy-reset gpio encoded in device tree. Even on the platforms that have the gpio, FEC can work without resetting phy for some cases, e.g. boot loader has done that. So it makes more sense to have the phy-reset-gpio request failure as a debug message rather than a warning, and get fec_reset_phy() return void since the caller does not check the return anyway.
