Before the move the l2cap_chan the SMP context (smp_chan) didn't have
any kind of proper locking. The best there existed was the
HCI_CONN_LE_SMP_PEND flag which was used to enable mutual exclusion for
potential multiple creators of the SMP context.
Now that SMP has been converted to use the l2cap_chan infrastructure and
since the SMP context is directly mapped to a corresponding l2cap_chan
we get the SMP context locking essentially for free through the
l2cap_chan lock. For all callbacks that l2cap_core.c makes for each
channel implementation (smp.c in the case of SMP) the l2cap_chan lock is
held through l2cap_chan_lock(chan).
Since the calls from l2cap_core.c to smp.c are covered the only missing
piece to have the locking implemented properly is to ensure that the
lock is held for any other call path that may access the SMP context.
This means user responses through mgmt.c, requests to elevate the
security of a connection through hci_conn.c, as well as any deferred
work through workqueues.
This patch adds the necessary locking to all these other code paths that
try to access the SMP context. Since mutual exclusion for the l2cap_chan
access is now covered from all directions the patch also removes
unnecessary HCI_CONN_LE_SMP_PEND flag (once we've acquired the chan lock
we can simply check whether chan->smp is set to know if there's an SMP
context).

The identity address update of all channels for an l2cap_conn needs to
take the lock for each channel, i.e. it's safest to do this by a
separate workqueue callback.
Previously this was partially solved by moving the entire SMP key
distribution behind a workqueue. However, if we want SMP context locking
to be correct and safe we should always use the l2cap_chan lock when
accessing it, meaning even smp_distribute_keys needs to take that lock
which would once again create a dead lock when updating the identity
address.
The simplest way to solve this is to have l2cap_conn manage the deferred
work which is what this patch does. A subsequent patch will remove the
now unnecessary SMP key distribution work struct.

Now that SMP has been converted to use fixed channels we've got a bit of
a problem with the hci_conn reference counting. So far the L2CAP code
has kept a reference for each L2CAP channel that was notified of the
connection. With SMP however this would mean that the connection is
never dropped even though there are no other users of it. Furthermore,
SMP already does its own hci_conn reference counting internally,
starting from a security or pairing request and ending with the key
distribution.
This patch makes L2CAP fixed channels default to the L2CAP core not
keeping a hci_conn reference for them. A new FLAG_HOLD_HCI_CONN flag is
added so that L2CAP users can declare an exception to this rule and hold
a reference even for their fixed channels. One such exception is the
L2CAP socket layer which does want a reference for each socket (e.g. an
ATT socket which uses a fixed channel).

A block_device may be attached to different gendisks and thus
different bdis over time. bdev_inode_switch_bdi() is used to switch
the associated bdi. The function assumes that the inode could be
dirty and transfers it between bdis if so. This is a bit nasty in
that it reaches into bdi internals.
This patch reimplements the function so that it writes out the inode

bdev_get_queue() returns the request_queue associated with the

bdev_get_queue() to determine the associated bdi given a block_device.
All the callers of bdev_get_queue() including
blk_get_backing_dev_info() assume that bdev_get_queue() may return
NULL and implement NULL handling; however, bdev_get_queue() requires
the passed in block_device is opened and attached to its gendisk.
Because an active gendisk always has a valid request_queue associated
with it, bdev_get_queue() can never return NULL and neither can
blk_get_backing_dev_info().
Make it clear that neither of the two functions can return NULL and
remove NULL handling from all the callers.

Linux already supports 802.11h, where the access point can tell the
client to reduce its transmission power. However, 802.11h is only
defined for 5 GHz, where the need for this is much smaller than on
2.4 GHz.
Cisco has their own solution, called DTPC (Dynamic Transmit Power
Control). Cisco APs on a controller sometimes but not always send
802.11h; they always send DTPC, even on 2.4 GHz. This patch adds support
for parsing and honoring the DTPC IE in addition to the 802.11h
element (they do not always contain the same limits, so both must
be honored); the format is not documented, but very simple.
Tested (on top of wireless.git and on 3.16.1) against a Cisco Aironet
1142 joined to a Cisco 2504 WLC, by setting various transmit power
levels for the given access points and observing the results.

element, except for negative numbers, which seem to never happen

Both times() and clock_gettime(CLOCK_PROCESS_CPUTIME_ID) have scalability
issues on large systems, due to both functions being serialized with a
lock.
The lock protects against reporting a wrong value, due to a thread in the
task group exiting, its statistics reporting up to the signal struct, and
that exited task's statistics being counted twice (or not at all).
Protecting that with a lock results in times() and clock_gettime() being
completely serialized on large systems.
This can be fixed by using a seqlock around the events that gather and
propagate statistics. As an additional benefit, the protection code can
be moved into thread_group_cputime(), slightly simplifying the calling
functions.
In the case of posix_cpu_clock_get_task() things can be simplified a
lot, because the calling function already ensures that the task sticks
around, and the rest is now taken care of in thread_group_cputime().
This way the statistics reporting code can run lockless.

The rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() function is on a scheduling fast
path, so it would be good to avoid disabling irqs. The reason that irqs
are disabled is to synchronize process-level and irq-handler access to
the task_struct ->rcu_read_unlock_special bitmask. This commit therefore
makes ->rcu_read_unlock_special instead be a union of bools with a short
allowing single-access checks in RCU's __rcu_read_unlock(). This results
in the process-level and irq-handler accesses being simple loads and
stores, so that irqs need no longer be disabled. This commit therefore
removes the irq disabling from rcu_preempt_note_context_switch().

In theory, synchronize_sched() requires a read-side critical section
to order against. In practice, preemption can be thought of as
being disabled across every machine instruction, at least for those
machine instructions that are not in the idle loop and not on offline
CPUs. So this commit removes the redundant preempt_disable() from
rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch().
Please note that the single instruction in question is the store of
zero to ->rcu_tasks_holdout. The "if" is simply a performance optimization
that avoids unnecessary stores. To see this, keep in mind that both
the "if" condition and the store are in a quiescent state. Therefore,
even if the task is preempted for a full grace period (presumably due
to its having done a context switch beforehand), the store will be
recording a legitimate quiescent state.

Once a task has passed exit_notify() in the do_exit() code path, it
is no longer on the task lists, and is therefore no longer visible
to rcu_tasks_kthread(). This means that an almost-exited task might
be preempted while within a trampoline, and this task won't be waited
on by rcu_tasks_kthread(). This commit fixes this bug by adding an
srcu_struct. An exiting task does srcu_read_lock() just before calling
exit_notify(), and does the corresponding srcu_read_unlock() after
doing the final preempt_disable(). This means that rcu_tasks_kthread()
can do synchronize_srcu() to wait for all mostly-exited tasks to reach
their final preempt_disable() region, and then use synchronize_sched()
to wait for those tasks to finish exiting.

It turns out to be easier to add the synchronous grace-period waiting
functions to RCU-tasks than to work around their absense in rcutorture,
so this commit adds them. The key point is that the existence of
call_rcu_tasks() means that rcutorture needs an rcu_barrier_tasks().

RCU-tasks requires the occasional voluntary context switch
from CPU-bound in-kernel tasks. In some cases, this requires
instrumenting cond_resched(). However, there is some reluctance
to countenance unconditionally instrumenting cond_resched() (see
http://lwn.net/Articles/603252/), so this commit creates a separate
cond_resched_rcu_qs() that may be used in place of cond_resched() in
locations prone to long-duration in-kernel looping.
This commit currently instruments only RCU-tasks. Future possibilities
include also instrumenting RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched in order to reduce
IPI usage.

This commit adds a new RCU-tasks flavor of RCU, which provides
call_rcu_tasks(). This RCU flavor's quiescent states are voluntary
context switch (not preemption!) and userspace execution (not the idle
loop -- use some sort of schedule_on_each_cpu() if you need to handle the
idle tasks. Note that unlike other RCU flavors, these quiescent states
occur in tasks, not necessarily CPUs. Includes fixes from Steven Rostedt.
This RCU flavor is assumed to have very infrequent latency-tolerant
updaters. This assumption permits significant simplifications, including
a single global callback list protected by a single global lock, along
with a single task-private linked list containing all tasks that have not
yet passed through a quiescent state. If experience shows this assumption
to be incorrect, the required additional complexity will be added.

User pr_alert/pr_cont for printing the logs from rcutorture module directly
instead of writing it to a buffer and then printing it. This allows us from not
having to allocate such buffers. Also remove a resulting empty function.
I tested this using the parse-torture.sh script as follows:
$ dmesg | grep torture > log.txt
$ bash parse-torture.sh log.txt test
$
There were no warnings which means that parsing went fine.

Commit 96d3fd0d31 (rcu: Break call_rcu() deadlock involving scheduler
and perf) covered the case where __call_rcu_nocb_enqueue() needs to wake
the rcuo kthread due to the queue being initially empty, but did not
do anything for the case where the queue was overflowing. This commit
therefore also defers wakeup for the overflow case.

This commit uninlines rcu_read_lock_held(). According to "size vmlinux"
this saves 28549 in .text:
- 5541731 3014560 14757888 23314179
+ 5513182 3026848 14757888 23297918
Note: it looks as if the data grows by 12288 bytes but this is not true,
it does not actually grow. But .data starts with ALIGN(THREAD_SIZE) and
since .text shrinks the padding grows, and thus .data grows too as it
seen by /bin/size. diff System.map:
- ffffffff81510000 D _sdata
- ffffffff81510000 D init_thread_union
+ ffffffff81509000 D _sdata
+ ffffffff8150c000 D init_thread_union
Perhaps we can change vmlinux.lds.S to .data itself, so that /bin/size
can't "wrongly" report that .data grows if .text shinks.
