7c559a9e44 [DCCP]: Add socket option to query the current MPS
This enables applications to query the current value of the Maximum
Packet Size via a socket option, suggested as a SHOULD in (RFC 4340,
p. 102).

This socket option is useful to avoid the annoying bail-out via
`-EMSGSIZE'.  In particular, as fragmentation is not currently
supported (and its use is partly discouraged in RFC 4340).

With this option, it is possible to size buffers accordingly, e.g.

	int buflen = dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd);

	/* or */
	if (msgsize > dccp_get_cur_mps(sockfd))
		die("message is too large for this path");

58d4185e36 [MAC80211]: improve radiotap injection
This improves radiotap injection by removing the shortcut over TX handlers
that led to BUGS when injecting frames without setting a rate and also
resulted in various other quirks. Now, TX handlers are run but some
information that was present in the radiotap header is used instead of
automatic settings.

Stop building and configuring driver for Digi RightSwitch, which was
never actually sold to anyone, and remove it from MAINTAINERS.

In response to an investigation into the firmware of the "Digi Rightswitch"
driver, Andres Salomon discovered:

Since the product never reached market, clearly nobody is using this orphaned

a94f0f9705 [DCCP]: Rate-limit DCCP-Syncs
This implements a SHOULD from RFC 4340, 7.5.4:
 "To protect against denial-of-service attacks, DCCP implementations SHOULD
  impose a rate limit on DCCP-Syncs sent in response to sequence-invalid packets,
  such as not more than eight DCCP-Syncs per second."

The rate-limit is maintained on a per-socket basis. This is a more stringent
policy than enforcing the rate-limit on a per-source-address basis and
protects against attacks with forged source addresses.

Moreover, the mechanism is deliberately kept simple. In contrast to
xrlim_allow(), bursts of Sync packets in reply to sequence-invalid packets
are not supported.  This foils such attacks where the receipt of a Sync
triggers further sequence-invalid packets. (I have tested this mechanism against
xrlim_allow algorithm for Syncs, permitting bursts just increases the problems.)

In order to keep flexibility, the timeout parameter can be set via sysctl; and
the whole mechanism can even be disabled (which is however not recommended).

The algorithm in this patch has been improved with regard to wrapping issues
thanks to a suggestion by Arnaldo.

Commiter note: Rate limited the step 6 DCCP_WARN too, as it says we're
               sending a sync.

1d3bb99648 Device tree aware EMAC driver
Based on BenH's earlier work, this is a new version of the EMAC driver
for the built-in ethernet found on PowerPC 4xx embedded CPUs.  The
same ASIC is also found in the Axon bridge chip.  This new version is
designed to work in the arch/powerpc tree, using the device tree to
probe the device, rather than the old and ugly arch/ppc OCP layer.

This driver is designed to sit alongside the old driver (that lies in
drivers/net/ibm_emac and this one in drivers/net/ibm_newemac).  The
old driver is left in place to support arch/ppc until arch/ppc itself
reaches its final demise (not too long now, with luck).

This driver still has a number of things that could do with cleaning
up, but I think they can be fixed up after merging.  Specifically:
	- Should be adjusted to properly use the dma mapping API.
Axon needs this.
	- Probe logic needs reworking, in conjuction with the general
probing code for of_platform devices.  The dependencies here between
EMAC, MAL, ZMII etc. make this complicated.  At present, it usually
works, because we initialize and register the sub-drivers before the
EMAC driver itself, and (being in driver code) runs after the devices
themselves have been instantiated from the device tree.

0bcc181618 [NET] netconsole: Support dynamic reconfiguration using configfs
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for dynamic reconfiguration (adding, removing
and/or modifying parameters of netconsole targets at runtime) using a
userspace interface exported via configfs.  Documentation is also updated
accordingly.

Issues and brief design overview:

(1) Kernel-initiated creation / destruction of kernel objects is not
    possible with configfs -- the lifetimes of the "config items" is managed
    exclusively from userspace.  But netconsole must support boot/module
    params too, and these are parsed in kernel and hence netpolls must be
    setup from the kernel.  Joel Becker suggested to separately manage the
    lifetimes of the two kinds of netconsole_target objects -- those created
    via configfs mkdir(2) from userspace and those specified from the
    boot/module option string.  This adds complexity and some redundancy here
    and also means that boot/module param-created targets are not exposed
    through the configfs namespace (and hence cannot be updated / destroyed
    dynamically).  However, this saves us from locking / refcounting
    complexities that would need to be introduced in configfs to support
    kernel-initiated item creation / destroy there.

(2) In configfs, item creation takes place in the call chain of the
    mkdir(2) syscall in the driver subsystem.  If we used an ioctl(2) to
    create / destroy objects from userspace, the special userspace program is
    able to fill out the structure to be passed into the ioctl and hence
    specify attributes such as local interface that are required at the time
    we set up the netpoll.  For configfs, this information is not available at
    the time of mkdir(2).  So, we keep all newly-created targets (via
    configfs) disabled by default.  The user is expected to set various
    attributes appropriately (including the local network interface if
    required) and then write(2) "1" to the "enabled" attribute.  Thus,
    netpoll_setup() is then called on the set parameters in the context of
    _this_ write(2) on the "enabled" attribute itself.  This design enables
    the user to reconfigure existing netconsole targets at runtime to be
    attached to newly-come-up interfaces that may not have existed when
    netconsole was loaded or when the targets were actually created.  All this
    effectively enables us to get rid of custom ioctls.

(3) Ultra-paranoid configfs attribute show() and store() operations, with
    sanity and input range checking, using only safe string primitives, and
    compliant with the recommendations in Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt.

(4) A new function netpoll_print_options() is created in the netpoll API,
    that just prints out the configured parameters for a netpoll structure.
    netpoll_parse_options() is modified to use that and it is also exported to
    be used from netconsole.

b5427c2717 [NET] netconsole: Support multiple logging targets
Based upon initial work by Keiichi Kii <k-keiichi@bx.jp.nec.com>.

This patch introduces support for multiple targets, independent of
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE_DYNAMIC -- this is useful even in the default case and
(including the infrastructure introduced in previous patches) doesn't really
add too many bytes to module text.  All the complexity (and size) comes with
the dynamic reconfigurability / userspace interface patch, and so it's
plausible users may want to keep this enabled but that disabled (say to avoid
a dependency on CONFIG_CONFIGFS_FS too).

Also update documentation to mention the use of ";" separator to specify
multiple logging targets in the boot/module option string.

Brief overview:

We maintain a target_list (and corresponding lock).  Get rid of the static
"default_target" and introduce allocation and release functions for our
netconsole_target objects (but keeping sure to preserve previous behaviour
such as default values).  During init_netconsole(), ";" is used as the
separator to identify multiple target specifications in the boot/module option
string.  The target specifications are parsed and netpolls setup.  During
exit, the target_list is torn down and all items released.

bea3348eef [NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.
Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.

In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.

The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:

	int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)

to

	int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)

The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract).  The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.

The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.

Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler.  Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

With lots of help and suggestions from Rusty Russell, Roland Dreier,
Michael Chan, Jeff Garzik, and Jamal Hadi Salim.

Bug fixes from Thomas Graf, Roland Dreier, Peter Zijlstra,
Joseph Fannin, Scott Wood, Hans J. Koch, and Michael Chan.

ff80f1370f ACPI: thinkpad-acpi: revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED option
Revert new 2.6.23 CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED Kconfig option because
it would create a legacy we don't want to support.

CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED was added to try to fix an issue that is
now moot with the addition of the netlink ACPI event report interface to
the ACPI core.

Now that ACPI core can send events over netlink, we can use a different
strategy to keep backwards compatibility with older userspace, without the
need for the CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED games.  And it arrived
before CONFIG_THINKPAD_ACPI_INPUT_ENABLED made it to a stable mainline
kernel, even, which is Good.

This patch is in sync with some changes to thinkpad-acpi backports, that
will keep things sane for userspace across different combinations of kernel
versions, thinkpad-acpi backports (or the lack thereof), and userspace
capabilities:

Unless a module parameter is used, thinkpad-acpi will now behave in such a
way that it will work well (by default) with userspace that still uses only
the old ACPI procfs event interface and doesn't care for thinkpad-acpi
input devices.

It will also always work well with userspace that has been updated to use
both the thinkpad-acpi input devices, and ACPI core netlink event
interface, regardless of any module parameter.

The module parameter was added to allow thinkpad-acpi to work with
userspace that has been partially updated to use thinkpad-acpi input
devices, but not the new ACPI core netlink event interface.  To use this
mode of hot key reporting, one has to specify the hotkey_report_mode=2
module parameter.

The thinkpad-acpi driver exports the value of hotkey_report_mode through
sysfs, as well.  thinkpad-acpi backports to older kernels, that do not
support the new ACPI core netlink interface, have code to allow userspace
to switch hotkey_report_mode at runtime through sysfs.  This capability
will not be provided in mainline thinkpad-acpi as it is not needed there.

60693e5a9a i2c-piix4: Fix SB700 PCI device ID
We find that SB700 and SB800 use the same SMBus device ID as SB600, which is
0x4385, instead of the already submitted 0x4395.

Besides removing the wrong SB700 device ID, add SB800 support to kernel, by
renaming the PCI_DEVICE_ID_ATI_IXP600_SMBUS into
PCI_DEVICE_ID_ATI_SBX00_SMBUS.

14e04fb34f ACPI: Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal
Schedule /proc/acpi/event for removal in 6 months.

Re-name acpi_bus_generate_event() to acpi_bus_generate_proc_event()
to make sure there is no confusion that it is for /proc/acpi/event only.

Add CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT to allow removal of /proc/acpi/event.
There is no functional change if CONFIG_ACPI_PROC_EVENT=y

42b88e6ad4 Document Linux Memory Policy
I couldn't find any memory policy documentation in the Documentation
directory, so here is my attempt to document it.

There's lots more that could be written about the internal design--including
data structures, functions, etc.  However, if you agree that this is better
that the nothing that exists now, perhaps it could be merged.  This will
provide a baseline for updates to document the many policy patches that are
currently being worked.
