The "bat_" prefix in the source files implementing the batman-adv sysfs and
debugfs interface doesn't have a special meaning and are only used by these
files and files that implement the actual B.A.T.M.A.N. path finding algorithm.
The prefix is better suited to mark files that are used to implement the main
part of the path finding. All other files should not use it and therefore gets
renamed.

Pull two ARM fixes from Russell King:
"It's been fairly quiet with the fixes. Just two this time. One fixes
a long standing problem with KALLSYMS needing an additional pass, and
the other sorts a problem with the vmalloc space interacting with
static IO mappings."
* 'fixes' of git://git.linaro.org/people/rmk/linux-arm:
ARM: 7438/1: fill possible PMD empty section gaps
ARM: 7428/1: Prevent KALLSYM size mismatch on ARM.
On ARM with the 2-level page table format, a PMD entry is represented by
two consecutive section entries covering 2MB of virtual space.
However, static mappings always were allowed to use separate 1MB section
entries. This means in practice that a static mapping may create half
populated PMDs via create_mapping().
Since commit 0536bdf33f (ARM: move iotable mappings within the vmalloc
region) those static mappings are located in the vmalloc area. We must
ensure no such half populated PMDs are accessible once vmalloc() or
ioremap() start looking at the vmalloc area for nearby free virtual
address ranges, or various things leading to a kernel crash will happen.

This patch adds the support for the Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
to the Physical Abstraction Layer.
To support the EEE we have to access to the MMD registers 3.20 and
7.60/61. So two new functions have been added to read/write the MMD
registers (clause 45).
An Ethernet driver (I tested the stmmac) can invoke the phy_init_eee to properly
check if the EEE is supported by the PHYs and it can also set the clock
stop enable bit in the 3.0 register.
The phy_get_eee_err can be used for reporting the number of time where
the PHY failed to complete its normal wake sequence.
In the end, this patch also adds the EEE ethtool support implementing:
o phy_ethtool_set_eee
o phy_ethtool_get_eee
v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some errors especially on naming convention
v3: renamed again the mmd read/write functions thank to Ben's feedback
v4: moved file to phy.c and added the ethtool support.
v5: fixed phy_adv_to_eee, phy_eee_to_supported, phy_eee_to_adv return
values according to ethtool API (thanks to Ben's feedback).
Renamed some macros to avoid too long names.
v6: fixed kernel-doc comments to be properly parsed.
Fixed the phy_init_eee function: we need to check which link mode
was autonegotiated and then the corresponding bits in 7.60 and 7.61
registers.
v7: reviewed the way to get the negotiated settings.
v8: fixed a problem in the phy_init_eee return value erroneously added
when included the phy_read_status call.
v9: do not remove the MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_100TX and MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_1000T
and fixed the eee_{cap,lp,adv} declaration as "int" instead of u16.

This patch adds the Energy Efficient Ethernet support to the stmmac.
Please see the driver's documentation for further details about this support
in the driver.
Thanks also goes to Rayagond Kokatanur for his first implementation.
Note:
to clearly manage and expose the lpi interrupt status and eee ethtool
stats I've had to do some modifications to the driver's design and I
found really useful to move other parts of the code (e.g. mmc irq stat)
in the main directly. So this means that some core has been reworked
to introduce the EEE.
v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some sparse issues (typos)
v3: erroneously sent the v2 renamed as v3
v4:
o Fixed the return value of the stmmac_eee_init as suggested by D.Miller
o Totally reviewed the ethtool support for EEE
o Added a new internal parameter to tune the SW timer for TX LPI.
v5: do not change any eee setting in case of the stmmac_ethtool_op_set_eee fails
(it has to return -EOPNOTSUPP in that case).

Currently only used when packet split mode is enabled with jumbo frames,
IP payload checksum (for fragmented UDP packets) is mutually exclusive with
receive hashing offload since the hardware uses the same space in the
receive descriptor for the hardware-provided packet checksum and the RSS
hash, respectively. Users currently must disable jumbos when receive
hashing offload is enabled, or vice versa, because of this incompatibility.
Since testing has shown that IP payload checksum does not provide any real
benefit, just remove it so that there is no longer a choice between jumbos
or receive hashing offload but not both as done in other Intel GbE drivers
(e.g. e1000, igb).
Also, add a missing check for IP checksum error reported by the hardware;
let the stack verify the checksum when this happens.

It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't
a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
2960:
An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This
rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
together with the reply chunk.
This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations
to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings
us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was
concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the
RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
enable/disable it.

is that the isolated_cpus_lock mutex is owned when
destroy_power_saving_task() calls kthread_stop(), which waits for a
power_saving thread to end, and the power_saving thread tries to
acquire the isolated_cpus_lock when it calls round_robin_cpu(). This

This patch adds the following structure:

unsigned int groups;
void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
struct mutex *cb_mutex;
};
That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.
I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.
That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.
