e2f93cc321 brcmfmac: postpone interrupt register function
For out of band interrupt which is going to be introduced shortly,
the interrupt register function must be called after firmware is
downloaded. This patch moves it from brcmf_sdbrcm_probe to
brcmf_sdbrcm_bus_init.

3073a7c20c mac80211: Add more ethtools stats: survey, rates, etc
The signal and noise are forced to be positive since ethtool
deals in unsigned 64-bit values and this number should be human

exposed in the deprecated /proc/net/wireless file.

e87278e730 mac80211: insert mesh peer after init
Drivers need the station rate info when inserting a new sta_info. The
patch "mac80211: refactor mesh peer initialization" wrongly assumed the
rate info could be applied after insertion. After further review, this
is clearly not the case.

This fixes a regression where HT parameters were not applied before
inserting the sta_info, causing performance degradation.

62c50543ce wireless: at76c50x: allocating too much data
This is a cut and paste mistake, sizeof(struct mib_local) was intended
instead of sizeof(struct mib_phy).  The call to at76_get_mib() uses
sizeof(struct mib_local) correctly, although I changed that to
sizeof(*m) for style reasons after discussion with some of the wireless
maintainers.

The current code works fine because mib_phy structs are larger than
mib_local structs.  But we may as well clean it up.

This patch removes ip_queue support which was marked as obsolete

user-space packet queueing mechanism.

This patch also removes capability code included in SELinux that
refers to ip_queue. Otherwise, we break compilation.

Several warning has been sent regarding this to the mailing list
in the past month without anyone rising the hand to stop this
with some strong argument.

6714cf5465 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix explicit helper attachment and NAT
Explicit helper attachment via the CT target is broken with NAT
if non-standard ports are used. This problem was hidden behind
the automatic helper assignment routine. Thus, it becomes more
noticeable now that we can disable the automatic helper assignment
with Eric Leblond's:

9e8ac5a netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment

Basically, nf_conntrack_alter_reply asks for looking up the helper
up if NAT is enabled. Unfortunately, we don't have the conntrack
template at that point anymore.

Since we don't want to rely on the automatic helper assignment,
we can skip the second look-up and stick to the helper that was
attached by iptables. With the CT target, the user is in full
control of helper attachment, thus, the policy is to trust what
the user explicitly configures via iptables (no automatic magic
anymore).

Interestingly, this bug was hidden by the automatic helper look-up
code. But it can be easily trigger if you attach the helper in
a non-standard port, eg.

iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 8888 \
	-j CT --helper ftp

And you disabled the automatic helper assignment.

I added the IPS_HELPER_BIT that allows us to differenciate between
a helper that has been explicitly attached and those that have been
automatically assigned. I didn't come up with a better solution
(having backward compatibility in mind).

9768e1ace4 netfilter: nf_ct_expect: partially implement ctnetlink_change_expect
This refreshes the "timeout" attribute in existing expectations if one is
given.

The use case for this would be for userspace helpers to extend the lifetime
of the expectation when requested, as this is not possible right now
without deleting/recreating the expectation.

I use this specifically for forwarding DCERPC traffic through:

DCERPC has a port mapper daemon that chooses a (seemingly) random port for
future traffic to go to. We expect this traffic (with a reasonable
timeout), but sometimes the port mapper will tell the client to continue
using the same port. This allows us to extend the expectation accordingly.

6b324dbfc3 ipvs: optimize the use of flags in ip_vs_bind_dest
cp->flags is marked volatile but ip_vs_bind_dest
can safely modify the flags, so save some CPU cycles by
using temp variable.

f73181c828 ipvs: add support for sync threads
Allow master and backup servers to use many threads
for sync traffic. Add sysctl var "sync_ports" to define the
number of threads. Every thread will use single UDP port,
thread 0 will use the default port 8848 while last thread
will use port 8848+sync_ports-1.

	The sync traffic for connections is scheduled to many
master threads based on the cp address but one connection is
always assigned to same thread to avoid reordering of the
sync messages.

	Remove ip_vs_sync_switch_mode because this check
for sync mode change is still risky. Instead, check for mode
change under sync_buff_lock.

	Make sure the backup socks do not block on reading.

Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for helping in all tests.

749c42b620 ipvs: reduce sync rate with time thresholds
Add two new sysctl vars to control the sync rate with the
main idea to reduce the rate for connection templates because
currently it depends on the packet rate for controlled connections.
This mechanism should be useful also for normal connections
with high traffic.

sync_refresh_period: in seconds, difference in reported connection
	timer that triggers new sync message. It can be used to
	avoid sync messages for the specified period (or half of
	the connection timeout if it is lower) if connection state
	is not changed from last sync.

sync_retries: integer, 0..3, defines sync retries with period of
	sync_refresh_period/8. Useful to protect against loss of
	sync messages.

	Allow sysctl_sync_threshold to be used with
sysctl_sync_period=0, so that only single sync message is sent
if sync_refresh_period is also 0.

	Add new field "sync_endtime" in connection structure to
hold the reported time when connection expires. The 2 lowest
bits will represent the retry count.

	As the sysctl_sync_period now can be 0 use ACCESS_ONCE to
avoid division by zero.

	Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for being patient with me,
for his extensive reports and helping in all tests.

1c003b1580 ipvs: wakeup master thread
High rate of sync messages in master can lead to
overflowing the socket buffer and dropping the messages.
Fixed sleep of 1 second without wakeup events is not suitable
for loaded masters,

	Use delayed_work to schedule sending for queued messages
and limit the delay to IPVS_SYNC_SEND_DELAY (20ms). This will
reduce the rate of wakeups but to avoid sending long bursts we
wakeup the master thread after IPVS_SYNC_WAKEUP_RATE (8) messages.

	Add hard limit for the queued messages before sending
by using "sync_qlen_max" sysctl var. It defaults to 1/32 of
the memory pages but actually represents number of messages.
It will protect us from allocating large parts of memory
when the sending rate is lower than the queuing rate.

	As suggested by Pablo, add new sysctl var
"sync_sock_size" to configure the SNDBUF (master) or
RCVBUF (slave) socket limit. Default value is 0 (preserve
system defaults).

	Change the master thread to detect and block on
SNDBUF overflow, so that we do not drop messages when
the socket limit is low but the sync_qlen_max limit is
not reached. On ENOBUFS or other errors just drop the
messages.

	Change master thread to enter TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE
state early, so that we do not miss wakeups due to messages or
kthread_should_stop event.

Thanks to Pablo Neira Ayuso for his valuable feedback!

cdcc5e905d ipvs: always update some of the flags bits in backup
As the goal is to mirror the inactconns/activeconns
counters in the backup server, make sure the cp->flags are
updated even if cp is still not bound to dest. If cp->flags
are not updated ip_vs_bind_dest will rely only on the initial
flags when updating the counters. To avoid mistakes and
complicated checks for protocol state rely only on the
IP_VS_CONN_F_INACTIVE bit when updating the counters.

882a844bd5 ipvs: fix ip_vs_try_bind_dest to rebind app and transmitter
Initially, when the synced connection is created we
use the forwarding method provided by master but once we
bind to destination it can be changed. As result, we must
update the application and the transmitter.

	As ip_vs_try_bind_dest is called always for connections
that require dest binding, there is no need to validate the
cp and dest pointers.

06611f82cc ipvs: remove check for IP_VS_CONN_F_SYNC from ip_vs_bind_dest
As the IP_VS_CONN_F_INACTIVE bit is properly set
in cp->flags for all kind of connections we do not need to
add special checks for synced connections when updating
the activeconns/inactconns counters for first time. Now
logic will look just like in ip_vs_unbind_dest.
