ath9k: Test for TID only in BlockAcks while checking tx status
The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case
only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a
normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and
therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID.
The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as
undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing
otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of
connections.
Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in
environments with transfers using multiple TIDs.
This regression was introduced in

mac80211: check if key has TKIP type before updating IV
This patch fix corruption which can manifest itself by following crash
when switching on rfkill switch with rt2x00 driver:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=615362
Pointer key->u.ccmp.tfm of group key get corrupted in:
ieee80211_rx_h_michael_mic_verify():
/* update IV in key information to be able to detect replays */
rx->key->u.tkip.rx[rx->security_idx].iv32 = rx->tkip_iv32;
rx->key->u.tkip.rx[rx->security_idx].iv16 = rx->tkip_iv16;
because rt2x00 always set RX_FLAG_MMIC_STRIPPED, even if key is not TKIP.
We already check type of the key in different path in
ieee80211_rx_h_michael_mic_verify() function, so adding additional
check here is reasonable.

x86, boot: Explicitly include autoconf.h for hostprogs
The hostprogs need access to the CONFIG_* symbols found in
include/generated/autoconf.h. But commit
abbf1590de22 ("UAPI: Partition
the header include path sets and add uapi/ header directories") replaced
$(LINUXINCLUDE) with $(USERINCLUDE) which doesn't contain the necessary
include paths.
This has the undesirable effect of breaking the EFI boot stub because
the #ifdef CONFIG_EFI_STUB code in arch/x86/boot/tools/build.c is
never compiled.
It should also be noted that because $(USERINCLUDE) isn't exported by
the top-level Makefile it's actually empty in arch/x86/boot/Makefile.

"The patches contained herein do the following:
(1) Remove kernel-only stuff in linux/ppp-comp.h from the UAPI. I checked
this with Paul Mackerras before I created the patch and he suggested some
extra bits to unexport.
(2) Remove linux/blk_types.h entirely from the UAPI as none of it is userspace
applicable, and remove from the UAPI that part of linux/fs.h that was the
reason for linux/blk_types.h being exported in the first place. I
discussed this with Jens Axboe before creating the patch.
(3) The big patch of the series to disintegrate include/linux/*.h as a unit.
This could be split up, though there would be collisions in moving stuff
between the two Kbuild files when the parts are merged as that file is
sorted alphabetically rather than being grouped by subsystem.
Of this set of headers, 17 files have changed in the UAPI exported region
since the 4th and only 8 since the 9th so there isn't much change in this
area - as one might expect.
It should be pretty obvious and straightforward if it does come to fixing
up: stuff in __KERNEL__ guards stays where it is and stuff outside moves
to the same file in the include/uapi/linux/ directory.
If a new file appears then things get a bit more complicated as the
"headers +=" line has to move to include/uapi/linux/Kbuild. Only one new
file has appeared since the 9th and I judge this type of event relatively
unlikely.

ARM: config: sort select statements alphanumerically
As suggested by Andrew Morton:
This is a pet peeve of mine. Any time there's a long list of items
(header file inclusions, kconfig entries, array initalisers, etc) and
someone wants to add a new item, they *always* go and stick it at the
end of the list.
Guys, don't do this. Either put the new item into a randomly-chosen
position or, probably better, alphanumerically sort the list.
lets sort all our select statements alphanumerically. This commit was
created by the following perl:
while (<>) {
while (/\\\s*$/) {
$_ .= <>;
}
undef %selects if /^\s*config\s+/;
if (/^\s+select\s+(\w+).*/) {
if (defined($selects{$1})) {
if ($selects{$1} eq $_) {
print STDERR "Warning: removing duplicated $1 entry\n";
} else {
print STDERR "Error: $1 differently selected\n".
"\tOld: $selects{$1}\n".
"\tNew: $_\n";
exit 1;
}
}
$selects{$1} = $_;
next;
}
if (%selects and (/^\s*$/ or /^\s+help/ or /^\s+---help---/ or
/^endif/ or /^endchoice/)) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
undef %selects;
}
print;
}
if (%selects) {
foreach $k (sort (keys %selects)) {
print "$selects{$k}";
}
}
It found two duplicates:
Warning: removing duplicated S5P_SETUP_MIPIPHY entry
Warning: removing duplicated HARDIRQS_SW_RESEND entry
and they are identical duplicates, hence the shrinkage in the diffstat
of two lines.
We have four testers reporting success of this change (Tony, Stephen,

vfs: define struct filename and have getname() return it
getname() is intended to copy pathname strings from userspace into a
kernel buffer. The result is just a string in kernel space. It would
however be quite helpful to be able to attach some ancillary info to
the string.
For instance, we could attach some audit-related info to reduce the
amount of audit-related processing needed. When auditing is enabled,
we could also call getname() on the string more than once and not
need to recopy it from userspace.
This patchset converts the getname()/putname() interfaces to return
a struct instead of a string. For now, the struct just tracks the
string in kernel space and the original userland pointer for it.

convenient.

Use the recently-added bio front_pad field to allocate struct dm_target_io.
Prior to this patch, dm_target_io was allocated from a mempool. For each
dm_target_io, there is exactly one bio allocated from a bioset.
This patch merges these two allocations into one allocation: we create a
bioset with front_pad equal to the size of dm_target_io so that every
bio allocated from the bioset has sizeof(struct dm_target_io) bytes
before it. We allocate a bio and use the bytes before the bio as
dm_target_io.

DATA_DEV_BLOCK_SIZE_MIN_SECTORS.
This patch eliminates the "Discard support must be disabled when the
block size is not a power of 2" constraint that was imposed in commit
55f2b8b ("dm thin: support for non power of 2 pool blocksize"). That
commit was incomplete: using a block size that is not a power of 2
shouldn't mean disabling discard support on the device completely.
