f0fe510864 KVM: Future-proof argument-less ioctls
Some ioctls ignore their arguments.  By requiring them to be zero now,
we allow a nonzero value to have some special meaning in the future.

07c45a366d KVM: Allow kernel to select size of mmap() buffer
This allows us to store offsets in the kernel/user kvm_run area, and be
sure that userspace has them mapped.  As offsets can be outside the
kvm_run struct, userspace has no way of knowing how much to mmap.

1961d276c8 KVM: Add guest mode signal mask
Allow a special signal mask to be used while executing in guest mode.  This
allows signals to be used to interrupt a vcpu without requiring signal
delivery to a userspace handler, which is quite expensive.  Userspace still
receives -EINTR and can get the signal via sigwait().

8eb7d334bd KVM: Fold kvm_run::exit_type into kvm_run::exit_reason
Currently, userspace is told about the nature of the last exit from the
guest using two fields, exit_type and exit_reason, where exit_type has
just two enumerations (and no need for more).  So fold exit_type into
exit_reason, reducing the complexity of determining what really happened.

06465c5a3a KVM: Handle cpuid in the kernel instead of punting to userspace
KVM used to handle cpuid by letting userspace decide what values to
return to the guest.  We now handle cpuid completely in the kernel.  We
still let userspace decide which values the guest will see by having
userspace set up the value table beforehand (this is necessary to allow
management software to set the cpu features to the least common denominator,
so that live migration can work).

The motivation for the change is that kvm kernel code can be impacted by
cpuid features, for example the x86 emulator.

46fc147788 KVM: Do not communicate to userspace through cpu registers during PIO
Currently when passing the a PIO emulation request to userspace, we
rely on userspace updating %rax (on 'in' instructions) and %rsi/%rdi/%rcx
(on string instructions).  This (a) requires two extra ioctls for getting
and setting the registers and (b) is unfriendly to non-x86 archs, when
they get kvm ports.

So fix by doing the register fixups in the kernel and passing to userspace
only an abstract description of the PIO to be done.

dc87c3985e libata: honour host controllers that want just one host
The Marvell IDE interface on my machine would hit a BUG_ON() in
lib/iomem.c because it was calling ata_pci_init_one() specifying just a
single port on the host, but that would actually end up trying to
initialize two ports, the second one with bogus information.

This fixes "ata_pci_init_one()" so that it actually passes down the
n_ports variable that it got from the low-level driver to the host
allocation routine ("ata_host_alloc_pinfo()"), which results in the ATA
layer actually having the correct port number information.

And in order to make it all work, I also needed to fix a few places that
had incorrectly hard-coded the fact that a host always had exactly two
ports (both ata_pci_init_bmdma() and ata_request_legacy_irqs() would
just always iterate over both ports).

9684e51cd1 power management: force pm_ops.valid callback to be assigned
This patch changes the docs and behaviour from "all states valid" to "no
states valid" if no .valid callback is assigned.  Users of pm_ops that only
need mem sleep can assign pm_valid_only_mem without any overhead, others
will require more elaborate callbacks.

Now that all users of pm_ops have a .valid callback this is a safe thing to
do and prevents things from getting messy again as they were before.

e8c9c50269 power management: implement pm_ops.valid for everybody
Almost all users of pm_ops only support mem sleep, don't check in .valid and
don't reject any others in .prepare so users can be confused if they check
/sys/power/state, especially when new states are added (these would then
result in s-t-r although they're supposed to be something different).

This patch implements a generic pm_valid_only_mem function that is then
exported for users and puts it to use in almost all existing pm_ops.

fe0c935a6c rework pm_ops pm_disk_mode, kill misuse
This patch series cleans up some misconceptions about pm_ops.  Some users of
the pm_ops structure attempt to use it to stop the user from entering suspend
to disk, this, however, is not possible since the user can always use
"shutdown" in /sys/power/disk and then the pm_ops are never invoked.  Also,
platforms that don't support suspend to disk simply should not allow
configuring SOFTWARE_SUSPEND (read the help text on it, it only selects
suspend to disk and nothing else, all the other stuff depends on PM).

The pm_ops structure is actually intended to provide a way to enter
platform-defined sleep states (currently supported states are "standby" and
"mem" (suspend to ram)) and additionally (if SOFTWARE_SUSPEND is configured)
allows a platform to support a platform specific way to enter low-power mode
once everything has been saved to disk.  This is currently only used by ACPI
(S4).

This patch:

The pm_ops.pm_disk_mode is used in totally bogus ways since nobody really
seems to understand what it actually does.

This patch clarifies the pm_disk_mode description.

It also removes all the arm and sh users that think they can veto suspend to
disk via pm_ops; not so since the user can always do echo shutdown >
/sys/power/disk, they need to find a better way involving Kconfig or such.

ACPI is the only user left with a non-zero pm_disk_mode.

The patch also sets the default mode to shutdown again, but when a new pm_ops
is registered its pm_disk_mode is selected as default, that way the default
stays for ACPI where it is apparently required.

patch extends the functionality of kallsyms.c so that the symbol lookup
function may be used without the printk.  This is useful for modules that
want to dump symbols elsewhere, for example, to debugfs.  I intend to use

d551e4541d [TCP] FRTO: RFC4138 allows Nagle override when new data must be sent
This is a corner case where less than MSS sized new data thingie
is awaiting in the send queue. For F-RTO to work correctly, a
new data segment must be sent at certain point or F-RTO cannot
be used at all. RFC4138 allows overriding of Nagle at that
point.

Implementation uses frto_counter states 2 and 3 to distinguish
when Nagle override is needed.

157bfc2502 [XFRM]: Restrict upper layer information by bundle.
On MIPv6 usage, XFRM sub policy is enabled.
When main (IPsec) and sub (MIPv6) policy selectors have the same
address set but different upper layer information (i.e. protocol
number and its ports or type/code), multiple bundle should be created.
However, currently we have issue to use the same bundle created for
the first time with all flows covered by the case.

It is useful for the bundle to have the upper layer information
to be restructured correctly if it does not match with the flow.

1. Bundle was created by two policies
Selector from another policy is added to xfrm_dst.
If the flow does not match the selector, it goes to slow path to
restructure new bundle by single policy.

2. Bundle was created by one policy
Flow cache is added to xfrm_dst as originated one. If the flow does
not match the cache, it goes to slow path to try searching another
policy.

34588b4c04 [TCP]: Catch skb with S+L bugs earlier
SACKED_ACKED and LOST are mutually exclusive with SACK, thus
having their sum larger than packets_out is bug with SACK.
Eventually these bugs trigger traps in the tcp_clean_rtx_queue
with SACK but it's much more informative to do this here.

Non-SACK TCP, however, could get more than packets_out duplicate
ACKs which each increment sacked_out, so it makes sense to do
this kind of limitting for non-SACK TCP but not for SACK enabled
one. Perhaps the author had the opposite in mind but did the
logic accidently wrong way around? Anyway, the sacked_out
incrementer code for non-SACK already deals this issue before
calling sync_left_out so this trapping can be done
unconditionally.

6aaf47fa48 [PATCH] INET : IPV4 UDP lookups converted to a 2 pass algo
Some people want to have many UDP sockets, binded to a single port but
many different addresses. We currently hash all those sockets into a
single chain.  Processing of incoming packets is very expensive,
because the whole chain must be examined to find the best match.

I chose in this patch to hash UDP sockets with a hash function that
take into account both their port number and address : This has a
drawback because we need two lookups : one with a given address, one
with a wildcard (null) address.

5972511b77 [BLOCK] Don't pin lots of memory in mempools
Currently we scale the mempool sizes depending on memory installed
in the machine, except for the bio pool itself which sits at a fixed
256 entry pre-allocation.

There's really no point in "optimizing" this OOM path, we just need
enough preallocated to make progress. A single unit is enough, lets
scale it down to 2 just to be on the safe side.

This patch saves ~150kb of pinned kernel memory on a 32-bit box.
