Various embedded platforms are implementing ahci controllers. Some were built atop ahci_platform, others were doing their own things. Hans made some structural changes to libahci and librarized ahci_platform so that ahci platform drivers can share more common code. A couple platform drivers are added on top of that and several are added to replace older drivers which were doing their own things (older ones are scheduled to be removed). - Dan finishes the patchset to make libata PM operations asynchronous. Combined with one patch being routed through scsi, this should speed resume measurably. - Various fixes and cleanups from Bartlomiej and others" * 'for-3.15' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/libata: (61 commits) ata: fix Marvell SATA driver dependencies ata: fix ARASAN CompactFlash PATA driver dependencies ata: remove superfluous casts ata: sata_highbank: remove superfluous cast ata: fix Calxeda Highbank SATA driver dependencies ata: fix R-Car SATA driver dependencies ARM: davinci: da850: update SATA AHCI support ata: add new-style AHCI platform driver for DaVinci DA850 AHCI controller ata: move library code from ahci_platform.c to libahci_platform.c ata: ahci_platform: fix ahci_platform_data->suspend method handling libata: remove unused ata_sas_port_async_resume() stub libata.h: add stub for ata_sas_port_resume libata: async resume libata, libsas: kill pm_result and related cleanup ata: Fix compiler warning with APM X-Gene host controller driver arm64: Add APM X-Gene SoC AHCI SATA host controller DTS entries ata: Add APM X-Gene SoC AHCI SATA host controller driver Documentation: Add documentation for the APM X-Gene SoC SATA host controller DTS binding arm64: Add APM X-Gene SoC 15Gbps Multi-purpose PHY DTS entries ata: ahci_sunxi: fix code formatting ...

While moving it around anyways, move the mk6q phy init code from probe to imx_sata_enable, as the phy needs to be re-initialized on resume too, otherwise the drive won't be recognized after resume.

| * ARM: sunxi: Add support for Allwinner SUNXi SoCs sata to ahci_platformOlliver Schinagl2014-02-221-3/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for the ahci sata controler found on Allwinner A10 and A20 SoCs to the ahci_platform driver. Orignally written by Olliver Schinagl using the approach of having a platform device which probe method creates a new child platform device which gets driven by ahci_platform.c, as done by ahci_imx.c . Refactored by Hans de Goede to add most of the non sunxi specific functionality to ahci_platform.c and use a platform_data pointer from of_device_id for the sunxi specific bits.

Modules can only be loaded within a particular range of virtual address space. This patch adds 10 bits of entropy to the load address by adding 1-1024 * PAGE_SIZE to the beginning range where modules are loaded. The single base offset was chosen because randomizing each module load ends up wasting/fragmenting memory too much. Prior approaches to minimizing fragmentation while doing randomization tend to result in worse entropy than just doing a single base address offset. Example kASLR boot without this change, with a single module loaded: ---[ Modules ]--- 0xffffffffc0000000-0xffffffffc0001000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xffffffffc0001000-0xffffffffc0002000 4K ro GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc0002000-0xffffffffc0004000 8K RW GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc0004000-0xffffffffc0200000 2032K pte 0xffffffffc0200000-0xffffffffff000000 1006M pmd ---[ End Modules ]--- Example kASLR boot after this change, same module loaded: ---[ Modules ]--- 0xffffffffc0000000-0xffffffffc0200000 2M pmd 0xffffffffc0200000-0xffffffffc03bf000 1788K pte 0xffffffffc03bf000-0xffffffffc03c0000 4K ro GLB x pte 0xffffffffc03c0000-0xffffffffc03c1000 4K ro GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc03c1000-0xffffffffc03c3000 8K RW GLB NX pte 0xffffffffc03c3000-0xffffffffc0400000 244K pte 0xffffffffc0400000-0xffffffffff000000 1004M pmd ---[ End Modules ]--- Signed-off-by: Andy Honig <ahonig@google.com> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20140226005916.GA27083@www.outflux.net Signed-off-by: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: H.

Because the stores are identical, the compiler knows that the store will unconditionally execute regardless of the "if" condition, and so the compiler is within its rights to hoist the store to precede the condition.

Anyways: 1) vmxnet3's netpoll doesn't perform the equivalent of an ISR, which is the correct implementation, like it should. Instead it does something like a NAPI poll operation. This leads to crashes. From Neil Horman and Arnd Bergmann. 2) Segmentation of SKBs requires proper socket orphaning of the fragments, otherwise we might access stale state released by the release callbacks. This is a 5 patch fix, but the initial patches are giving variables and such significantly clearer names such that the actual fix itself at the end looks trivial. From Michael S. Tsirkin. 3) TCP control block release can deadlock if invoked from a timer on an already "owned" socket. Fix from Eric Dumazet. 4) In the bridge multicast code, we must validate that the destination address of general queries is the link local all-nodes multicast address. From Linus Lüssing. 5) The x86 BPF JIT support for negative offsets puts the parameter for the helper function call in the wrong register. Fix from Alexei Starovoitov. 6) The descriptor type used for RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_17 chips in the r8169 driver is incorrect. Fix from Hayes Wang. 7) The xen-netback driver tests skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type bits to see if a packet is a GSO frame, but that's not the correct test. It should use skb_is_gso(skb) instead. Fix from Wei Liu. 8) Negative msg->msg_namelen values should generate an error, from Matthew Leach. 9) at86rf230 can deadlock because it takes the same lock from it's ISR and it's hard_start_xmit method, without disabling interrupts in the latter. Fix from Alexander Aring. 10) The FEC driver's restart doesn't perform operations in the correct order, so promiscuous settings can get lost. Fix from Stefan Wahren. 11) Fix SKB leak in SCTP cookie handling, from Daniel Borkmann. 12) Reference count and memory leak fixes in TIPC from Ying Xue and Erik Hugne. 13) Forced eviction in inet_frag_evictor() must strictly make sure all frags are deleted, otherwise module unload (f.e. 6lowpan) can crash. Fix from Florian Westphal. 14) Remove assumptions in AF_UNIX's use of csum_partial() (which it uses as a hash function), which breaks on PowerPC. From Anton Blanchard. The main gist of the issue is that csum_partial() is defined only as a value that, once folded (f.e. via csum_fold()) produces a correct 16-bit checksum. It is legitimate, therefore, for csum_partial() to produce two different 32-bit values over the same data if their respective alignments are different. 15) Fix endiannes bug in MAC address handling of ibmveth driver, also from Anton Blanchard. 16) Error checks for ipv6 exthdrs offload registration are reversed, from Anton Nayshtut. 17) Externally triggered ipv6 addrconf routes should count against the garbage collection threshold. Fix from Sabrina Dubroca. 18) The PCI shutdown handler added to the bnx2 driver can wedge the chip if it was not brought up earlier already, which in particular causes the firmware to shut down the PHY. Fix from Michael Chan. 19) Adjust the sanity WARN_ON_ONCE() in qdisc_list_add() because as currently coded it can and does trigger in legitimate situations. From Eric Dumazet. 20) BNA driver fails to build on ARM because of a too large udelay() call, fix from Ben Hutchings. 21) Fair-Queue qdisc holds locks during GFP_KERNEL allocations, fix from Eric Dumazet. 22) The vlan passthrough ops added in the previous release causes a regression in source MAC address setting of outgoing headers in some circumstances.

As such, set THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG in the thin metadata's superblock which: 1) requires the user verify the thin metadata is consistent (e.g. use thin_check, etc) 2) suggests the user verify the thin data is consistent (e.g. use fsck) The only way to clear the superblock's THIN_METADATA_NEEDS_CHECK_FLAG is to run thin_repair. On metadata operation failure: abort current metadata transaction, set pool in read-only mode, and now set the needs_check flag. As part of this change, constraints are introduced or relaxed: * don't allow a pool to transition to write mode if needs_check is set * don't allow data or metadata space to be resized if needs_check is set * if a thin pool's metadata space is exhausted: the kernel will now force the user to take the pool offline for repair before the kernel will allow the metadata space to be extended. Also, update Documentation to include information about when the thin provisioning target commits metadata, how it handles metadata failures and running out of space.

From Eytan Lifshitz. 2) Unintentional switch case fallthrough in nft_reject_inet_eval(), from Patrick McHardy. 3) Must check if payload lenth is a power of 2 in nft_payload_select_ops(), from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 4) Fix mis-checksumming in xen-netfront driver, ip_hdr() is not in the correct place when we invoke skb_checksum_setup(). From Wei Liu. 5) TUN driver should not advertise HW vlan offload features in vlan_features. Fix from Fernando Luis Vazquez Cao. 6) IPV6_VTI needs to select NET_IPV_TUNNEL to avoid build errors, fix from Steffen Klassert. 7) Add missing locking in xfrm_migrade_state_find(), we must hold the per-namespace xfrm_state_lock while traversing the lists. Fix from Steffen Klassert. 8) Missing locking in ath9k driver, access to tid->sched must be done under ath_txq_lock(). Fix from Stanislaw Gruszka. 9) Fix two bugs in TCP fastopen. First respect the size argument given to tcp_sendmsg() in the fastopen path, and secondly prevent tcp_send_syn_data() from potentially using order-5 allocations. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Fix handling of default neigh garbage collection params, from Jiri Pirko. 11) Fix cwnd bloat and over-inflation of RTT when transmit segmentation is in use. From Eric Dumazet. 12) Missing initialization of Realtek r8169 driver's statistics seqlocks. Fix from Kyle McMartin. 13) Fix RTNL assertion failures in 802.3ad and AB ARP monitor of bonding driver, from Ding Tianhong. 14) Bonding slave release race can cause divide by zero, fix from Nikolay Aleksandrov. 15) Overzealous return from neigh_periodic_work() causes reachability time to not be computed. Fix from Duain Jiong. 16) Fix regression in ipv6_find_hdr(), it should not return -ENOENT when a specific target is specified and found. From Hans Schillstrom. 17) Fix VLAN tag stripping regression in BNA driver, from Ivan Vecera. 18) Tail loss probe can calculate bogus RTTs due to missing packet marking on retransmit. Fix from Yuchung Cheng. 19) We cannot do skb_dst_drop() in iptunnel_pull_header() because multicast loopback detection in later code paths need access to skb_rtable(). Fix from Xin Long. 20) The macvlan driver regresses in that it propagates lower device offload support disables into itself, causing severe slowdowns when running over a bridge. Provide the software offloads always on macvlan devices to deal with this and the regression is gone.

After some discussions with developers at a fair this well meant feature leads to confusion as no clean switch for CAN / CAN FD is provided to the application programmer. Additionally a compatibility like this for legacy CAN_RAW sockets requires some compatibility handling for the sending, e.g. make CAN2.0 frames a CAN FD frame with BRS at transmission time (?!?). This will become a mess when people start to develop applications with real CAN FD hardware. This patch reverts the bad compatibility code together with the documentation describing the removed feature.
