Pages returned by alloc_xenballooned_pages() will be used for grant
mapping which will call set_phys_to_machine() (in PV guests).
Ballooned pages are set as INVALID_P2M_ENTRY in the p2m and thus may
be using the (shared) missing tables and a subsequent
set_phys_to_machine() will need to allocate new tables.
Since the grant mapping may be done from a context that cannot sleep,
the p2m entries must already be allocated.

Rename alloc_p2m() to xen_alloc_p2m_entry() and export it.
This is useful for ensuring that a p2m entry is allocated (i.e., not a

- Make xen_alloc_p2m_entry() a nop on auto-xlate guests.
alloc_xenballooned_pages() is used to get ballooned pages to back
foreign mappings etc. Instead of having to balloon out real pages,
use (if supported) hotplugged memory.
This makes more memory available to the guest and reduces
fragmentation in the p2m.
This is only enabled if the xen.balloon.hotplug_unpopulated sysctl is
set to 1. This sysctl defaults to 0 in case the udev rules to

Refactor nested mdiobus read/write functions
In order to avoid locked signal false positive for nested mdiobus
read/write calls, nested code was introduced in mv88e6xxx and

The limitation of the number of multicast address for VF is not enough
for the large scale server with SR-IOV feature. IPv6 requires the multicast
MAC address for each IP address to handle the Neighbor Solicitation
message. We couldn't assign over 30 IPv6 addresses to a single VF.
This patch introduces the new mailbox API, IXGBE_VF_UPDATE_XCAST_MODE,
to update multicast mode of VF. This adds 3 modes;
- NONE only L2 exact match addresses or Flow Director enabled
- MULTI BAM and ROMPE set
- ALLMULTI BAM, ROMPE and MPE set
If a guest VF user wants over 30 MAC multicast addresses, set IFF_ALLMULTI
to request PF to update xcast mode to enable VF multicast promiscuous mode.
On the other hand, enabling VF multicast promiscuous mode may affect
security and performance in the network of the NIC. Only trusted VF can
enable multicast promiscuous mode. The behavior of untrusted VF is the
same as previous version.

Multiple cpus can process duplicates of incoming ACK messages

To fix this without adding new atomic ops, we use logic in
inet_ehash_nolisten() to detect the request was present in the same
ehash bucket where we try to insert the new child.
If request socket was not found, we have to undo the child creation.

The code currently uses the lightweight dma_wmb barrier before updating

was seeing the updated current descriptor count before the updated

up before it was used because it was not "owned" by the hardware yet,
resulting in a Tx queue hang.
Using the wmb barrier insures that the descriptor is updated before the
descriptor counter preventing the Tx queue hang. For extra insurance,
the Tx cleanup routine is changed to grab the current decriptor count on
entry and uses that initial value in the processing loop rather than
trying to chase the current value.

overflow-arith: begin to add support for overflow builtins functions
I add a new header, linux/overflow-arith.h, as the central place to add
overflow and wrap-around checking functions. The reason I am doing so
is that it can make use of compiler supported builtin functions which
can leverage hardware.
As I need this for a fix in the ipv6 stack, which is also included in
this series, I propose to add it sooner than later over Davem's net
tree. This is also the reason why I start slowly with only the one
function I need at this time.

Raw sockets with hdrincl enabled can insert ipv6 extension headers
right into the data stream. In case we need to fragment those packets,
we reparse the options header to find the place where we can insert
the fragment header. If the extension headers exceed the link's MTU we
actually cannot make progress in such a case.
Instead of ending up in broken arithmetic or rounding towards 0 and
entering an endless loop in ip6_fragment, just prevent those cases by
aborting early and signal -EMSGSIZE to user space.

The idea of the overflow-arith.h header is to collect overflow checking
functions in one central place.
If gcc compiler supports the __builtin_overflow_* builtins we use them
because they might give better performance, otherwise the code falls
back to normal overflow checking functions.
The builtin_overflow functions are supported by gcc-5 and clang. The
matter of supporting clang is to just provide a corresponding
CC_HAVE_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, because the specific overflow checking builtins
don't differ between gcc and clang.
I just provide overflow_usub function here as I intend this to get merged
into net, more functions will definitely follow as they are needed.

If alpha is strictly reduced by alpha >> dctcp_shift_g and if alpha is less
than 1 << dctcp_shift_g, then alpha may never reach zero. For example,
given shift_g=4 and alpha=15, alpha >> dctcp_shift_g yields 0 and alpha
remains 15. The effect isn't noticeable in this case below cwnd=137, but
could gradually drive uncongested flows with leftover alpha down to
cwnd=137. A larger dctcp_shift_g would have a greater effect.
This change causes alpha=15 to drop to 0 instead of being decrementing by 1
as it would when alpha=16. However, it requires one less conditional to
implement since it doesn't have to guard against subtracting 1 from 0U. A
decay of 15 is not unreasonable since an equal or greater amount occurs at
alpha >= 240.
