libceph: advance pagelist with list_rotate_left()

Define a new function in_msg_pos_next() to match out_msg_pos_next(),

Note that the page number is incremented and offset reset under
slightly different conditions from before. The result is
equivalent, however, as explained below.
Each time an incoming message is going to arrive, we find out how
much room is left--not surpassing the current page--and provide that
as the number of bytes to receive. So the amount we'll use is the
lesser of: all that's left of the entire request; and all that's
left in the current page.
If we received exactly how many were requested, we either reached
the end of the request or the end of the page. In the first case,
we're done, in the second, we move onto the next page in the array.
In all cases but (possibly) on the last page, after adding the
number of bytes received, page_pos == PAGE_SIZE. On the last page,
it doesn't really matter whether we increment the page number and
reset the page position, because we're done and we won't come back

libceph: clean up skipped message logic
In ceph_con_in_msg_alloc() it is possible for a connection's
alloc_msg method to indicate an incoming message should be skipped.
By default, read_partial_message() initializes the skip variable
to 0 before it gets provided to ceph_con_in_msg_alloc().
The osd client, mon client, and mds client each supply an alloc_msg
method. The mds client always assigns skip to be 0.
The other two leave the skip value of as-is, or assigns it to zero,
except:
- if no (osd or mon) request having the given tid is found, in
which case skip is set to 1 and NULL is returned; or
- in the osd client, if the data of the reply message is not
adequate to hold the message to be read, it assigns skip
value 1 and returns NULL.
So the returned message pointer will always be NULL if skip is ever
non-zero.
Clean up the logic a bit in ceph_con_in_msg_alloc() to make this
state of affairs more obvious. Add a comment explaining how a null
message pointer can mean either a message that should be skipped or
a problem allocating a message.

(This is being reposted. The first one had a problem because it
erroneously added a similar change elsewhere; that change has been
dropped.)
The next patch in this series points out that the calculation for
the number of pages in an osd request is getting done twice. It
is not obvious, but the result of both calculations is identical.
This patch simplifies one of them--as a separate step--to make
it clear that the transformation in the next patch is valid.
In ceph_sync_write() there is some magic that computes page_align
for an osd request. But a little analysis shows it can be
simplified.
First, we have:
io_align = pos & ~PAGE_MASK;
which is used here:
page_align = (pos - io_align + buf_align) & ~PAGE_MASK;
Note (pos - io_align) simply rounds "pos" down to the nearest multiple
of the page size.
We also have:
buf_align = (unsigned long)data & ~PAGE_MASK;
Adding buf_align to that rounded-down "pos" value will stay within
the same page; the result will just be offset by the page offset for
the "data" pointer. The final mask therefore leaves just the value
of "buf_align".
One more simplification. Note that the result of calc_pages_for()
is invariant of which page the offset starts in--the only thing that
matters is the offset within the starting page. We will have
put the proper page offset to use into "page_align", so just use
that in calculating num_pages.

We need to check the runtime sys_table for the EFI version the firmware
specifies instead of just checking for a NULL QueryVariableInfo. Older
implementations of EFI don't have QueryVariableInfo but the runtime is
a smaller structure, so the pointer to it may be pointing off into garbage.
This is apparently the case with several Apple firmwares that support EFI
1.10, and the current check causes them to no longer boot. Fix based on
a suggestion from Matthew Garrett.

This series adds workarounds for 3 different firmware bugs, each
preventing the affected devices from working at all. I therefore
humbly request that these fixes go to stable-3.8 (if still
maintained) and 3.9 (either via net if still possible, or via
stable if not).
All 3 workarounds are applied to all devices supported by the driver.
Adding quirks for specific devices was considered as an alternative,
but was rejected because we have too little information about the
exact distribution of the buggy firmwares. All we know is that the
same bug shows up in devices from at least 3 different, and presumably
independent, vendors.
The workarounds have instead been designed to automatically apply
when necessary, and to have as little impact as possible on unaffected
devices. The series has been tested on a number of devices both with
and without these bugs.
The series should apply cleanly to net/master, net-next/master and

net: qmi_wwan: prevent duplicate mac address on link (firmware bug workaround)
We normally trust and use the CDC functional descriptors provided by a
number of devices. But some of these will erroneously list the address
reserved for the device end of the link. Attempting to use this on
both the device and host side will naturally not work.
Work around this bug by ignoring the functional descriptor and assign a
random address instead in this case.
Signed-off-by: Bjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
The bogus address is always the same, and matches the address
suggested by many devices as a default address. It is likely a
hardcoded firmware default.
The circumstances where this bug has been observed indicates that
the trigger is related to timing or some other factor the host
cannot control. Repeating the exact same configuration sequence
that caused it to trigger once, will not necessarily cause it to
trigger the next time. Reproducing the bug is therefore difficult.
This opens up a possibility that the bug is more common than we can
confirm, because affected devices often will work properly again
after a reset. A procedure most users are likely to try out before
reporting a bug.
Unconditionally rewriting the destination address if the first digit
of the received packet is 0, is considered an acceptable compromise
since we already have to inspect this digit. The simplification will
cause unnecessary rewrites if the real address starts with 0, but this
is still better than adding additional tests for this particular case.

A number of LTE devices from different vendors all suffer from the
same firmware bug: Most of the packets received from the device while
it is attached to a LTE network will not have an ethernet header. The
devices work as expected when attached to 2G or 3G networks, sending
an ethernet header with all packets.
This driver is not aware of which network the modem attached to, and
even if it were there are still some packet types which are always
received with the header intact.
All devices supported by this driver have severely limited
networking capabilities:
- can only transmit IPv4, IPv6 and possibly ARP
- can only support a single host hardware address at any time
- will only do point-to-point communcation with the host
Because of this, we are able to reliably identify any bogus raw IP
packets by simply looking at the 4 IP version bits. All we need to
do is to avoid 4 or 6 in the first digit of the mac address. This
workaround ensures this, and fix up the received packets as necessary.
Given the distribution of the bug, it is believed that the source is
the chipset vendor. The devices which are verified to be affected are:
Huawei E392u-12 (Qualcomm MDM9200)
Pantech UML290 (Qualcomm MDM9600)
Novatel USB551L (Qualcomm MDM9600)
Novatel E362 (Qualcomm MDM9600)
It is believed that the bug depend on firmware revision, which means
that possibly all devices based on the above mentioned chipset may be
affected if we consider all available firmware revisions.
The information about affected devices and versions is likely
incomplete. As the additional overhead for packets not needing this
fixup is very small, it is considered acceptable to apply the
workaround to all devices handled by this driver.

sparc64: Fix race in TLB batch processing.
As reported by Dave Kleikamp, when we emit cross calls to do batched
TLB flush processing we have a race because we do not synchronize on
the sibling cpus completing the cross call.
So meanwhile the TLB batch can be reset (tb->tlb_nr set to zero, etc.)
and either flushes are missed or flushes will flush the wrong
addresses.
Fix this by using generic infrastructure to synchonize on the
completion of the cross call.
This first required getting the flush_tlb_pending() call out from
switch_to() which operates with locks held and interrupts disabled.
The problem is that smp_call_function_many() cannot be invoked with
IRQs disabled and this is explicitly checked for with WARN_ON_ONCE().
We get the batch processing outside of locked IRQ disabled sections by
using some ideas from the powerpc port. Namely, we only batch inside
of arch_{enter,leave}_lazy_mmu_mode() calls. If we're not in such a
region, we flush TLBs synchronously.
1) Get rid of xcall_flush_tlb_pending and per-cpu type
implementations.
a) Add 'active' member to struct tlb_batch
b) Define __HAVE_ARCH_ENTER_LAZY_MMU_MODE
c) Set 'active' in arch_enter_lazy_mmu_mode()
d) Run batch and clear 'active' in arch_leave_lazy_mmu_mode()
e) Check 'active' in tlb_batch_add_one() and do a synchronous
flush if it's clear.
4) Add infrastructure for synchronous TLB page flushes.
a) Implement __flush_tlb_page and per-cpu variants, patch
as needed.
b) Likewise for xcall_flush_tlb_page.
c) Implement smp_flush_tlb_page() to invoke the cross-call.
d) Wire up global_flush_tlb_page() to the right routine based
upon CONFIG_SMP
5) It turns out that singleton batches are very common, 2 out of every
3 batch flushes have only a single entry in them.
The batch flush waiting is very expensive, both because of the poll
on sibling cpu completeion, as well as because passing the tlb batch
pointer to the sibling cpus invokes a shared memory dereference.
Therefore, in flush_tlb_pending(), if there is only one entry in
the batch perform a completely asynchronous global_flush_tlb_page()
instead.

I'll just pull them into wireless-next -- just let me know if you
want to do it that way!

tcp: call tcp_replace_ts_recent() from tcp_ack()
commit bd090dfc634d (tcp: tcp_replace_ts_recent() should not be called
from tcp_validate_incoming()) introduced a TS ecr bug in slow path
processing.
1 A > B P. 1:10001(10000) ack 1 <nop,nop,TS val 1001 ecr 200>
2 B < A . 1:1(0) ack 1 win 257 <sack 9001:10001,TS val 300 ecr 1001>
3 A > B . 1:1001(1000) ack 1 win 227 <nop,nop,TS val 1002 ecr 200>
4 A > B . 1001:2001(1000) ack 1 win 227 <nop,nop,TS val 1002 ecr 200>
(ecr 200 should be ecr 300 in packets 3 & 4)
Problem is tcp_ack() can trigger send of new packets (retransmits),
reflecting the prior TSval, instead of the TSval contained in the
currently processed incoming packet.
Fix this by calling tcp_replace_ts_recent() from tcp_ack() after the
checks, but before the actions.
