Linus suggested that probably all the supported architectures can
allow a negative mutex count without incorrect behavior, so we can
then back out the architecture specific change and allow the
mutex count to go to any negative number. That should further
reduce contention for non-x86 architecture.

The current mutex spinning code (with MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option
turned on) allow multiple tasks to spin on a single mutex
concurrently. A potential problem with the current approach is
that when the mutex becomes available, all the spinning tasks
will try to acquire the mutex more or less simultaneously. As a
result, there will be a lot of cacheline bouncing especially on
systems with a large number of CPUs.
This patch tries to reduce this kind of contention by putting
the mutex spinners into a queue so that only the first one in
the queue will try to acquire the mutex. This will reduce
contention and allow all the tasks to move forward faster.
The queuing of mutex spinners is done using an MCS lock based
implementation which will further reduce contention on the mutex
cacheline than a similar ticket spinlock based implementation.
This patch will add a new field into the mutex data structure
for holding the MCS lock. This expands the mutex size by 8 bytes
for 64-bit system and 4 bytes for 32-bit system. This overhead
will be avoid if the MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option is turned off.
The following table shows the jobs per minute (JPM) scalability
data on an 8-node 80-core Westmere box with a 3.7.10 kernel. The

At low user range 10-100, the JPM differences were within +/-1%.
So they are not that interesting.
The fserver workload uses mutex spinning extensively. With just
the mutex change in the first patch, there is no noticeable
change in performance. Rather, there is a slight drop in
performance. This mutex spinning patch more than recovers the
lost performance and show a significant increase of +30% at high
user load with the full 8 nodes. Similar improvements were also
seen in a 3.8 kernel.
The table below shows the %time spent by different kernel
functions as reported by perf when running the fserver workload
at 1500 users with all 8 nodes.
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| Function | % time | % time | % time |
| | w/o patch | patch 1 | patches 1&2 |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| __read_lock_failed | 34.96% | 34.91% | 29.14% |
| __write_lock_failed | 10.14% | 10.68% | 7.51% |
| mutex_spin_on_owner | 3.62% | 3.42% | 2.33% |
| mspin_lock | N/A | N/A | 9.90% |
| __mutex_lock_slowpath | 1.46% | 0.81% | 0.14% |
| _raw_spin_lock | 2.25% | 2.50% | 1.10% |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
The fserver workload for an 8-node system is dominated by the
contention in the read/write lock. Mutex contention also plays a
role. With the first patch only, mutex contention is down (as
shown by the __mutex_lock_slowpath figure) which help a little
bit. We saw only a few percents improvement with that.
By applying patch 2 as well, the single mutex_spin_on_owner
figure is now split out into an additional mspin_lock figure.
The time increases from 3.42% to 11.23%. It shows a great
reduction in contention among the spinners leading to a 30%
improvement. The time ratio 9.9/2.33=4.3 indicates that there
are on average 4+ spinners waiting in the spin_lock loop for
each spinner in the mutex_spin_on_owner loop. Contention in
other locking functions also go down by quite a lot.
The table below shows the performance change of both patches 1 &
2 over patch 1 alone in other AIM7 workloads (at 8 nodes,
hyperthreading off).
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
| Workload | mean % change | mean % change | mean % change |
| | 10-100 users | 200-1000 users | 1100-2000 users |
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
| alltests | 0.0% | -0.8% | +0.6% |
| five_sec | -0.3% | +0.8% | +0.8% |

| new_fserver | +0.1% | +14.1% | +34.2% |
| shared | -0.5% | -0.3% | -0.4% |
| short | -1.7% | -9.8% | -8.3% |
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
The short workload is the only one that shows a decline in
performance probably due to the spinner locking and queuing
overhead.

In the __mutex_lock_common() function, an initial entry into
the lock slow path will cause two atomic_xchg instructions to be
issued. Together with the atomic decrement in the fast path, a
total of three atomic read-modify-write instructions will be
issued in rapid succession. This can cause a lot of cache
bouncing when many tasks are trying to acquire the mutex at the
same time.
This patch will reduce the number of atomic_xchg instructions
used by checking the counter value first before issuing the
instruction. The atomic_read() function is just a simple memory
read. The atomic_xchg() function, on the other hand, can be up
to 2 order of magnitude or even more in cost when compared with
atomic_read(). By using atomic_read() to check the value first
before calling atomic_xchg(), we can avoid a lot of unnecessary
cache coherency traffic. The only downside with this change is
that a task on the slow path will have a tiny bit less chance of
getting the mutex when competing with another task in the fast
path.
The same is true for the atomic_cmpxchg() function in the
mutex-spin-on-owner loop. So an atomic_read() is also performed
before calling atomic_cmpxchg().
The mutex locking and unlocking code for the x86 architecture
can allow any negative number to be used in the mutex count to
indicate that some tasks are waiting for the mutex. I am not so
sure if that is the case for the other architectures. So the
default is to avoid atomic_xchg() if the count has already been
set to -1. For x86, the check is modified to include all
negative numbers to cover a larger case.

At low user range 10-100, the JPM differences were within +/-1%.
So they are not that interesting.
AIM7 benchmark run has a pretty large run-to-run variance due to
random nature of the subtests executed. So a difference of less
than +-5% may not be really significant.
This patch improves high_systime workload performance at 4 nodes
and up by maintaining transaction rates without significant
drop-off at high node count. The patch has practically no
impact on 1 and 2 nodes system.
The table below shows the percentage time (as reported by perf
record -a -s -g) spent on the __mutex_lock_slowpath() function
by the high_systime workload at 1500 users for 2/4/8-node
configurations with hyperthreading off.
+---------------+-----------------+------------------+---------+
| Configuration | %Time w/o patch | %Time with patch | %Change |

| 2 nodes | 0.41% | 0.32% | -22% |
+---------------+-----------------+------------------+---------+
It is obvious that the dramatic performance improvement at 8
nodes was due to the drastic cut in the time spent within the
__mutex_lock_slowpath() function.
The table below show the improvements in other AIM7 workloads
(at 8 nodes, hyperthreading off).

We should store file xattrs in struct cfent instead of struct cftype,
because cftype is a type while cfent is object instance of cftype.
For example each cgroup has a tasks file, and each tasks file is
associated with a uniq cfent, but all those files share the same
struct cftype.
Alexey Kodanev reported a crash, which can be reproduced:
# mount -t cgroup -o xattr /sys/fs/cgroup
# mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# setfattr -n trusted.value -v test_value /sys/fs/cgroup/tasks
# rmdir /sys/fs/cgroup/test
# umount /sys/fs/cgroup
oops!
In this case, simple_xattrs_free() will free the same struct simple_xattrs

Revert "hp-wmi: Add support for SMBus hotkeys"
Alex Efros reported rpfilter module doesn't match following packets:
IN=br.qemu SRC=192.168.2.1 DST=192.168.2.255 [ .. ]
(netfilter bugzilla #814).
Problem is that network stack arranges for the locally generated broadcasts
to appear on the interface they were sent out, so the IFF_LOOPBACK check
doesn't trigger.
As -m rpfilter is restricted to PREROUTING, we can check for existing
rtable instead, it catches locally-generated broad/multicast case, too.

This reverts commit fabf85e3ca which breaks
hotkey support on some other HP laptops. We'll try doing this differently
in 3.10.

There's an issue in receiving broadcast management frames
on P2P Device virtual interfaces, such frames have the RX
flag IEEE80211_RX_RA_MATCH cleared and are thus dropped
in ieee80211_rx_h_mgmt_check(). They should be let through
to make it to ieee80211_rx_h_userspace_mgmt() and then to
userspace.

The type when timeout support was enabled, could not list all elements,
just the first ones which could fit into one netlink message: it just
did not continue listing after the first message.

Remove the majority of cache flushing calls from the individual platform
files. This is now handled by the core code.
Signed-off-by: Russell King <rmk+kernel@arm.linux.org.uk>
Flush the L1 cache for the CPU which is going down in cpu_die() so
that we don't end up with all platforms doing this. This ensures
that any cache lines we own are pushed out before the cache becomes
inaccessible.
We may end up subsequently creating some dirty cache lines - for
example, with the complete() call, but this update must become
visible to other CPUs before __cpu_die() can proceed. Subsequent
accesses from the platforms cpu_die() function should _not_ matter.
Also place a mb() after the complete() call to ensure that this is
visible to other CPUs.

Since commit 6b923cb718 (bonding: support for IPv6 transmit hashing)
bonding doesn't properly hash traffic in forwarding setups.
Vitaly V. Bursov diagnosed that skb_network_header_len() returned 0 in
this case.
More generally, the transport header might not be in the skb head.
Use pskb_may_pull() & skb_header_pointer() to get it right, and use
proto_ports_offset() in bond_xmit_hash_policy_l34() to get support for
more protocols than TCP and UDP.

This fixes 2 issues regarding bnx2x's status blocks:
1. ethtool -c caused corruption of status blocks in FW RAM.
2. when using multi-CoS, the configuration of the timeout values of
status blocks is incorrect, harming the coalescing of interrupts
for such CoSs.

When loading after UNDI (e.g., Boot from SAN) the UNDI does not
gracefully yield its resources; The bnx2x driver handles that release
itself.
During the manipulation required to release those resources, it's possible
for the UNDI to try and write to memory regions which are no longer accessible,
causing the PCI bus to prevent further writes from the chip.
This would in turn cause DMAE timeouts later on in the driver, as the driver
will be unable to use the chip's DMA engines.
This patch prevents the chip from actually writing through the PCI bus
in said scenario, thus allowing the release without the unfortunate by-product.

Jeff Kirsher says:
====================
This series contains updates to ixgbe only.
v2- Dropped the following 2 patches from the series:
ixgbe: Support using build_skb in the case that jumbo frames are disabled
ixgbe: walk pci-e bus to find minimum width
Ben Hutchings found a bug with Alex's patch, so that patch was dropped
permanently. Jacob's "walk PCIe bus" patch is being re-worked for
a more generic solution so that other drivers can benefit.
In the remaining patches...
Alex provides a fix where we were incorrectly checking the entire frag_off
field when we only wanted the fragment offset. Alex also cleans up
the check for PAGE_SIZE, since the default configuration allocates 32K
for all buffers.
Emil provides a change to the calculation of eerd so that it is consistent
between the read and write functions by using | instead of +.
Jacob adds support for displaying PCIe Gen3 link speed, which was
previously missing from the ixgbe driver. He also provides a patch
to clean up ixgbe_get_bus_info_generic to call some conversion
functions, which are used also in another patch provided by Jacob.
Jacob modifies the driver to enable certain devices (which have an
internal switch) to read from the physical slot rather than reading
data from the internal switch.
Don provides a couple of fixes (which are more appropriate for net-next),
one of which resolves an issue where ixgbe was only turning on the laser
when the adapter was up which caused issues for those who wanted to
access the MNG firmware while the port was in a down state. The other
fix is for WoL when currently linked at 1G. Lastly Don bumps the driver
version keep the in-kernel driver up to date with the current functionality.
