d33e455337 net: Abstract default MTU metric calculation behind an accessor.
Like RTAX_ADVMSS, make the default calculation go through a dst_ops
method rather than caching the computation in the routing cache
entries.

Now dst metrics are pretty much left as-is when new entries are
created, thus optimizing metric sharing becomes a real possibility.

0dbaee3b37 net: Abstract default ADVMSS behind an accessor.
Make all RTAX_ADVMSS metric accesses go through a new helper function,
dst_metric_advmss().

Leave the actual default metric as "zero" in the real metric slot,
and compute the actual default value dynamically via a new dst_ops
AF specific callback.

For stacked IPSEC routes, we use the advmss of the path which
preserves existing behavior.

Unlike ipv4/ipv6, DecNET ties the advmss to the mtu and thus updates
advmss on pmtu updates.  This inconsistency in advmss handling
results in more raw metric accesses than I wish we ended up with.

Allow userspace to specify that a given key
is default only for unicast and/or multicast
transmissions. Only WEP keys are for both,
WPA/RSN keys set here are GTKs for multicast
only. For more future flexibility, allow to
specify all combiations.

Wireless extensions can only set both so use
nl80211; WEP keys (connect keys) must be set
as default for both (but 802.1X WEP is still
possible).

a7ffac9591 cfg80211: Add antenna availability information
Add a field to wiphy for the hardware to report the availble antennas for
configuration. Only if this is set to something bigger than zero, will the
anntenna configuration ops be executed.

Allthough this could be a simple number of antennas, I defined it as a bitmap
of antennas which are available for configuration, since it's more consistent
with the rest of the antenna API and there could be cases where the
hardware allows only configuration of certain antennas. As it does not make
much of a difference in size or normal usage, I think it's better to be able to
support this, in case the need arises.

The antenna configuration is now also checked against the availabe antennas and
rejected if it does not match.

323e126f0c ipv4: Don't pre-seed hoplimit metric.
Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6.

This allowed several simplifications:

1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer
   userd.

2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use
   ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in
   routing cache metrics any longer.

3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and
   therefore can be marked static.

When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago,
the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around
so kill that off too.

We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into
ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because
currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has
a back dependency on net/route.h

d90aa92c0c acpi: fix _OSI string setup regression
commit b0ed7a91(ACPICA/ACPI: Add new host interfaces for _OSI suppor)
introduced a regression that _OSI string setup fails.

There are 2 paths to setup _OSI string.

DMI:
acpi_dmi_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux -> acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI
string to osi_setup_string

Boot command line:
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

Later, acpi_osi_setup_late will be called to handle osi_setup_string.
If _OSI string is "Linux" or "!Linux", then the call path is,

acpi_osi_setup_late -> acpi_cmdline_osi_linux -> set_osi_linux ->
acpi_osi_setup -> copy _OSI string to osi_setup_string

This actually never installs _OSI string(acpi_install_interface not
called), but just copy the _OSI string to osi_setup_string.

This patch fixes the regression.

68835aba4d net: optimize INET input path further
Followup of commit b178bb3dfc (net: reorder struct sock fields)

Optimize INET input path a bit further, by :

1) moving sk_refcnt close to sk_lock.

This reduces number of dirtied cache lines by one on 64bit arches (and
64 bytes cache line size).

2) moving inet_daddr & inet_rcv_saddr at the beginning of sk

(same cache line than hash / family / bound_dev_if / nulls_node)

This reduces number of accessed cache lines in lookups by one, and dont
increase size of inet and timewait socks.
inet and tw sockets now share same place-holder for these fields.

Before patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x10
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x40
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x60
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x270
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x274

After patch :

offsetof(struct sock, sk_refcnt) = 0x44
offsetof(struct sock, sk_lock) = 0x48
offsetof(struct sock, sk_receive_queue) = 0x68
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_daddr) = 0x0
offsetof(struct inet_sock, inet_rcv_saddr) = 0x4

compute_score() (udp or tcp) now use a single cache line per ignored
item, instead of two.

In particular this will help us put metrics into the inetpeer

at the read-only metrics in the FIB, and then on the first set

0f004f5a69 sched: Cure more NO_HZ load average woes
There's a long-running regression that proved difficult to fix and
which is hitting certain people and is rather annoying in its effects.

Damien reported that after 74f5187ac8 (sched: Cure load average vs
NO_HZ woes) his load average is unnaturally high, he also noted that
even with that patch reverted the load avgerage numbers are not
correct.

The problem is that the previous patch only solved half the NO_HZ
problem, it addressed the part of going into NO_HZ mode, not of
comming out of NO_HZ mode. This patch implements that missing half.

When comming out of NO_HZ mode there are two important things to take
care of:

 - Folding the pending idle delta into the global active count.
 - Correctly aging the averages for the idle-duration.

So with this patch the NO_HZ interaction should be complete and
behaviour between CONFIG_NO_HZ=[yn] should be equivalent.

Furthermore, this patch slightly changes the load average computation
by adding a rounding term to the fixed point multiplication.

5167695753 perf: Fix duplicate events with multiple-pmu vs software events
Because the multi-pmu bits can share contexts between struct pmu
instances we could get duplicate events by iterating the pmu list.

While doing this analysis, I found a refcount bug in llc, I'll send a
patch for net-2.6

Meanwhile, here is the patch for net-next-2.6

Your patch then can be applied after mine.

Thanks

[PATCH] net: RCU conversion of dev_getbyhwaddr() and arp_ioctl()

dev_getbyhwaddr() was called under RTNL.

Rename it to dev_getbyhwaddr_rcu() and change all its caller to now use
RCU locking instead of RTNL.

Change arp_ioctl() to use RCU instead of RTNL locking.

Note: this fix a dev refcount bug in llc

2df485a774 nfs: remove extraneous and problematic calls to nfs_clear_request
When a nfs_page is freed, nfs_free_request is called which also calls
nfs_clear_request to clean out the lock and open contexts and free the
pagecache page.

However, a couple of places in the nfs code call nfs_clear_request
themselves. What happens here if the refcount on the request is still high?
We'll be releasing contexts and freeing pointers while the request is
possibly still in use.

Remove those bare calls to nfs_clear_context. That should only be done when
the request is being freed.

Note that when doing this, we need to watch out for tests of req->wb_page.
Previously, nfs_set_page_tag_locked() and nfs_clear_page_tag_locked()
would check the value of req->wb_page to figure out if the page is mapped
into the nfsi->nfs_page_tree. We now indicate the page is mapped using
the new bit PG_MAPPED in req->wb_flags .
