After rename file dentry still holds reference to lower dentry from
previous location. This doesn't matter for data access because data comes
from upper dentry. But this stale lower dentry taints dentry at new
location and turns it into non-pure upper. Such file leaves visible
whiteout entry after remove in directory which shouldn't have whiteouts at
all.
Overlayfs already tracks pureness of file location in oe->opaque. This
patch just uses that for detecting actual path type.
Comment from Vivek Goyal's patch:
Here are the details of the problem. Do following.
$ mkdir upper lower work merged upper/dir/
$ touch lower/test
$ sudo mount -t overlay overlay -olowerdir=lower,upperdir=upper,workdir=
work merged
$ mv merged/test merged/dir/
$ rm merged/dir/test
$ ls -l merged/dir/
/usr/bin/ls: cannot access merged/dir/test: No such file or directory
total 0
c????????? ? ? ? ? ? test
Basic problem seems to be that once a file has been unlinked, a whiteout
has been left behind which was not needed and hence it becomes visible.
Whiteout is visible because parent dir is of not type MERGE, hence
od->is_real is set during ovl_dir_open(). And that means ovl_iterate()
passes on iterate handling directly to underlying fs. Underlying fs does
not know/filter whiteouts so it becomes visible to user.
Why did we leave a whiteout to begin with when we should not have.
ovl_do_remove() checks for OVL_TYPE_PURE_UPPER() and does not leave
whiteout if file is pure upper. In this case file is not found to be pure
upper hence whiteout is left.
So why file was not PURE_UPPER in this case? I think because dentry is
still carrying some leftover state which was valid before rename. For
example, od->numlower was set to 1 as it was a lower file. After rename,
this state is not valid anymore as there is no such file in lower.

Currently, the inlen field of the vendor's part of the command
doesn't match the command buffer. This happens because the inlen
accommodates ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr which is deducted from the in buffer.
This is problematic since the vendor function could be called either
from the legacy verb (where the input length mismatches the actual
length) or by the extended verb (where the length matches). The vendor
has no idea which function calls it and therefore has no way to know
how the length variable should be treated.
Fixing this by aligning the inlen to the correct length.
All vendor drivers either assumed that inlen >= sizeof(vendor_uhw_cmd)
or just failed wrongly (mlx5) and fixed in this patch.

Mellanox 10/40G mlx4 driver fixes for 4.5-rc6
This series contains two fixes for the SRIOV HW LAG that was

administrative MAC that was assigned to VF through the PF.
The VF mac fix needs to go for stable too.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
The VF administrative mac addresses (stored in the PF driver) are
initialized to zero when the PF driver starts up.
These addresses may be modified in the PF driver through ndo calls
initiated by iproute2 or libvirt.
While we allow the PF/host to change the VF admin mac address from zero
to a valid unicast mac, we do not allow restoring the VF admin mac to
zero. We currently only allow changing this mac to a different unicast mac.
This leads to problems when libvirt scripts are used to deal with
VF mac addresses, and libvirt attempts to revoke the mac so this
host will not use it anymore.
Fix this by allowing resetting a VF administrative MAC back to zero.

stmmac: enhance driver performances and update the version
According to Giuseppe, I send the v3 series.
This is a subset of patches to rework the driver in order to improve its
performances and make it more robust under stress conditions.
All patches have been ported on STi mainstream kernel branch and
tested on ARM STiH4xx platforms and newer ones.
This series also updates the driver version and prepares it
to include further development to support new chips.
In detail, these patches are:
o to rework and improve the internal DMA bus settings
Fine tuning is mandatory on some platforms for both
performance and stability issues.
o to rework and optimize the descriptor management.
This will help a lot on performance side and preparing
the inclusion on the GMAC4.x.
o to add a set of optimizations for both xmit and rx functions.
These will help a lot on performance side and making the driver
more robust in case of low memory conditions and under some
stress test, performed for example on IP-STB.
Below some throughput figures obtained on some boxes before and after
the patches.

V2: - rx_copybreak is now managed by using ethtool.
V3: - improve comments on PCIe detailing that there are no regressions
- rework some APIs to properly define some params as bool as expected
- rework the formula to get the element inside the ring. Comparing V2,
patches 4 and 13 have been merged because the same formula have been
used. After this rework, no evident benefit has been noticed in terms
of performances so the table above is still valid. Disassembling the
code for SH4 and ARM, with the new formula just an instr is saved
(depending on compiler flags) and this gives us not so relevanti gain,
for example, on SH4 where some instr are executed in the same pipeline
stage.
Ring sizes are now fixed and maybe they can be reworked to be tuned
w/o using stmmaceth= cmdline option. Indeed, nobody change these sizes
and indeed the numbers selected by default respect the budget and
avoid to pass invalid setup. These are the best driver default sizes
for ring and chain.

phy_bus_name can be NULL when "fixed-link" property isn't used.
Then, since "stmmac: do not poll phy handler when attach a switch",
phy_bus_name ptr needs to be checked before strcmp is called.

This patch avoids to call the stmmac_adjust_link when
the driver is connected to a switch by using the FIXED_PHY
support. Prior this patch the phydev->irq was set as PHY_POLL
so periodically the phy handler was invoked spending useless
time because the link cannot actually change.
Note that the stmmac_adjust_link will be called just one
time and this guarantees that the ST glue logic will be
setup according to the mode and speed fixed.

This patch is to fill the first descriptor just before granting
the DMA engine so at the end of the xmit.
The patch takes care about the algorithm adopted to mitigate the
interrupts, then it fixes the last segment in case of no fragments.
Moreover, this new implementation does not pass any "ter" field when
prepare the descriptors because this is not necessary.
The patch also details the memory barrier in the xmit.
As final results, this patch guarantees the same performances
but fixing a case if small datagram are sent. In fact, this
kind of test is impacted if no coalesce is done.

The dirty index can be updated out of the loop where all the
tx resources are claimed. This will help on performances too.
Also a useless debug printk has been removed from the main loop.
