Userspace can quite legitimately perform an exec() syscall with a
suspended transaction. exec() does not return to the old process, rather
it load a new one and starts that, the expectation therefore is that the
new process starts not in a transaction. Currently exec() is not treated
any differently to any other syscall which creates problems.
Firstly it could allow a new process to start with a suspended
transaction for a binary that no longer exists. This means that the
checkpointed state won't be valid and if the suspended transaction were
ever to be resumed and subsequently aborted (a possibility which is
exceedingly likely as exec()ing will likely doom the transaction) the
new process will jump to invalid state.
Secondly the incorrect attempt to keep the transactional state while
still zeroing state for the new process creates at least two TM Bad
Things. The first triggers on the rfid to return to userspace as
start_thread() has given the new process a 'clean' MSR but the suspend
will still be set in the hardware MSR. The second TM Bad Thing triggers
in __switch_to() as the processor is still transactionally suspended but
__switch_to() wants to zero the TM sprs for the new process.
This is an example of the outcome of calling exec() with a suspended
transaction. Note the first 700 is likely the first TM bad thing
decsribed earlier only the kernel can't report it as we've loaded
userspace registers. c000000000009980 is the rfid in
fast_exception_return()

The problem was exposed for real by a later commit in the v4.7 merge window:
2159197d66 ("sched/core: Enable increased load resolution on 64-bit kernels")
... after which tg->load_avg and cfs_rq->load.weight had different

Add a comment to explain the use of cfs_rq->load.weight over the
'natural' cfs_rq->avg.load_avg and add scale_load_down() to correct
for the difference in unit.
Since this is (now, as per a previous commit) the only user of
calc_tg_weight(), collapse it.

Starting with the following commit:
fde7d22e01 ("sched/fair: Fix overly small weight for interactive group entities")
calc_tg_weight() doesn't compute the right value as expected by effective_load().
The difference is in the 'correction' term. In order to ensure \Sum
rw_j >= rw_i we cannot use tg->load_avg directly, since that might be
lagging a correction on the current cfs_rq->avg.load_avg value.
Therefore we use tg->load_avg - cfs_rq->tg_load_avg_contrib +
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg.
Now, per the referenced commit, calc_tg_weight() doesn't use
cfs_rq->avg.load_avg, as is later used in @w, but uses
cfs_rq->load.weight instead.
So stop using calc_tg_weight() and do it explicitly.
The effects of this bug are wake_affine() making randomly
poor choices in cgroup-intense workloads.

By default, mdiobus_alloc() sets the PHYs to polling mode, but a
pointer size memcpy means that a couple IRQs end up being overwritten
with a value of 0. This means that PHY_POLL is disabled and results
in unpredictable behavior depending on the PHY's location on the
MDIO bus. Remove that memcpy and the now unused phy_irq member to
force the SMSC911x PHYs into polling mode 100% of the time.

In this mode the moderation timer will restart upon
new completion (CQE) generation rather than upon interrupt
generation.
The outcome is that for bursty traffic the period timer will never
expire and thus only the moderation frames counter will dictate
interrupt generation, thus the interrupt rate will be relative
to the incoming packets size.
If the burst seizes for "moderation period" time then an interrupt
will be issued immediately.
CQE based moderation is off by default and can be controlled
via ethtool set_priv_flags.

The HW holds a table of rate limits, each rate is
associated with an index in that table.
Later a Send Queue uses this index to set the rate limit.
Multiple Send Queues can have the same rate limit, which is
represented by a single entry in this table.
Even though a rate can be shared, each queue is being rate
limited independently of others.
The SW shadow of this table holds the rate itself,
the index in the HW table and the refcount (number of queues)

On SR-IOV profiles, when the user connects a Linux Bridge or OVS to a BE3
vport, they suffer the "broadcast/multicast echo" problem. BE3 EVB echoes
broadcast and multicast packets back to PF's vport confusing the
Linux bridge. BE3 relies on the src-mac addr being programmed on the
interface to avoid sending back an echo of a broadcast or multicast packet
on a vPort. When a Linux bridge is connected to a BE3, the mac-addr of the
VM behind the bridge doesn't get configured on the vPort and so echo
cancellation doesn't work.
This patch worksaround this problem by disabling the EVB initially
and re-enabling it *only* when SR-IOV is enabled by the user. For the
driver fix to work, the BE3 FW version must be >= 11.1.84.0.

David Howells says:
====================
rxrpc: Get rid of conn bundle and transport structs
Here's the next part of the AF_RXRPC rewrite. The primary purpose of this
set is to get rid of the rxrpc_conn_bundle and rxrpc_transport structs.
This simplifies things for future development of the connection handling.
To this end, the following significant changes are made:
(1) The rxrpc_connection struct is given pointers to the local and peer
endpoints, inside the rxrpc_conn_parameters struct. Pointers to the
transport's copy of these pointers are then redirected to the
connection struct.
(2) Exclusive connection handling is fixed. Exclusive connections should
do just one call and then be retired. They are used in security
negotiations and, I believe, the idea is to avoid reuse of negotiated
security contexts.
The current code is doing a single connection per socket and doing all
the calls over that. With this change it gets a new connection for
each call made.
(3) A new sendmsg() control message marker is added to make individual
calls operate over exclusive connections. This should be used in
future in preference to the sockopt that marks a socket as "exclusive
connection".
(4) IDs for client connections initiated by a machine are now allocated
from a global pool using the IDR facility and are unique across all
client connections, no matter their destination. The IDR facility is
then used to look up a connection on the connection ID alone. Other
parameters are then verified afterwards.
Note that the IDR facility may use a lot of memory if the IDs it holds
are widely scattered. Given this, in a future commit, client
connections will be retired if they are more than a certain distance
from the last ID allocated.
The client epoch is advanced by 1 each time the client ID counter
wraps. Connections outside the current epoch will also be retired in
a future commit.
(5) The connection bundle concept is removed and the client connection
tree is moved into the local endpoint. The queue for waiting for a
call channel is moved to the rxrpc_connection struct as there can only
be one connection for any particular key going to any particular peer
now.
(6) The rxrpc_transport struct is removed and the service connection tree
is moved into the peer struct.

Pull SCSI fixes from James Bottomley:
"Two straightforward fixes.
One is a concurrency issue only affecting SAS connected SATA drives,
but which could hang the storage subsystem if it triggers (because the
outstanding command count on error never goes back to zero) and the
other is a NO_TAG fallout from the switch to hostwide tags which
causes the system to crash on module insertion (we've checked
carefully and only the 53c700 family of drivers is vulnerable to this
issue)"

Currently the ad7266 driver treats any failure to get vref as though the
regulator were not present but this means that if probe deferral is
triggered the driver will act as though the regulator were not present.
Instead only use the internal reference if we explicitly got -ENODEV which
is what is returned for absent regulators.

The ad7266 driver attempts to support deciding between the use of internal
and external power supplies by checking to see if an error is returned when
requesting the regulator. This doesn't work with the current code since the
driver uses a normal regulator_get() which is for non-optional supplies
and so assumes that if a regulator is not provided by the platform then
this is a bug in the platform integration and so substitutes a dummy
regulator. Use regulator_get_optional() instead which indicates to the
framework that the regulator may be absent and provides a dummy regulator
instead.

All regulator_get() variants return either a pointer to a regulator or an
ERR_PTR() so testing for NULL makes no sense and may lead to bugs if we
use NULL as a valid regulator. Fix this by using IS_ERR() as expected.

This is caused by the vt visual_init() function calling into
fbcon_init() with a vc_cur_blink_ms value of zero. This is a
transient condition, as it is later set to a non-zero value. But, if
the timer happens to expire while the blink rate is zero, it goes into
an endless loop, and we get soft lockup.
The fix is to initialize vc_cur_blink_ms before calling the con_init()
function.

====================
net_sched: bulk dequeue and deferred drops
First patch adds an additional parameter to ->enqueue() qdisc method
so that drops can be done outside of critical section
(after locks are released).
Then fq_codel can have a small optimization to reduce number of cache
lines misses during a drop event
(possibly accumulating hundreds of packets to be freed).
A small htb change exports the backlog in class dumps.
Final patch adds bulk dequeue to qdiscs that were lacking this feature.
This series brings a nice qdisc performance increase (more than 80 %
in some cases).
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
When qdisc bulk dequeue was added in linux-3.18 (commit
5772e9a346 "qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs
with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE"), it was constrained to some
specific qdiscs.
With some extra care, we can extend this to all qdiscs,
so that typical traffic shaping solutions can benefit from
small batches (8 packets in this patch).
For example, HTB is often used on some multi queue device.
And bonding/team are multi queue devices...
Idea is to bulk-dequeue packets mapping to the same transmit queue.
This brings between 35 and 80 % performance increase in HTB setup
under pressure on a bonding setup :
1) NUMA node contention : 610,000 pps -> 1,110,000 pps
2) No node contention : 1,380,000 pps -> 1,930,000 pps
Now we should work to add batches on the enqueue() side ;)

We already get child qdisc qlen, we also can get its backlog
so that class dumps can report it.
Also replace qstats by a single drop counter, but move it in
a separate cache line so that drops do not dirty useful cache lines.

Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue()
time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held,
delaying a dequeue() draining the queue.
Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens,
at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible.
Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was
to provide some flow isolation.
This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all
qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper.
I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch
is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.
