Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) If an IPVS tunnel is created with a mixed-family destination address, it cannot be removed. Fix from Alexey Andriyanov. 2) Fix module refcount underflow in netfilter's nft_compat, from Pablo Neira Ayuso. 3) Generic statistics infrastructure can reference variables sitting on a released function stack, therefore use dynamic allocation always. Fix from Ignacy Gawędzki. 4) skb_copy_bits() return value test is inverted in ip_check_defrag(). 5) Fix network namespace exit in openvswitch, we have to release all of the per-net vports. From Pravin B Shelar. 6) Fix signedness bug in CAIF's cfpkt_iterate(), from Dan Carpenter. 7) Fix rhashtable grow/shrink behavior, only expand during inserts and shrink during deletes. From Daniel Borkmann. 8) Netdevice names with semicolons should never be allowed, because they serve as a separator. From Matthew Thode. 9) Use {,__}set_current_state() where appropriate, from Fabian Frederick. 10) Revert byte queue limits support in r8169 driver, it's causing regressions we can't figure out. 11) tcp_should_expand_sndbuf() erroneously uses tp->packets_out to measure packets in flight, properly use tcp_packets_in_flight() instead. From Neal Cardwell. 12) Fix accidental removal of support for bluetooth in CSR based Intel wireless cards. From Marcel Holtmann. 13) We accidently added a behavioral change between native and compat tasks, wrt testing the MSG_CMSG_COMPAT bit. Just ignore it if the user happened to set it in a native binary as that was always the behavior we had. From Catalin Marinas. 14) Check genlmsg_unicast() return valud in hwsim netlink tx frame handling, from Bob Copeland. 15) Fix stale ->radar_required setting in mac80211 that can prevent starting new scans, from Eliad Peller. 16) Fix memory leak in nl80211 monitor, from Johannes Berg. 17) Fix race in TX index handling in xen-netback, from David Vrabel. 18) Don't enable interrupts in amx-xgbe driver until all software et al. state is ready for the interrupt handler to run. From Thomas Lendacky. 19) Add missing netlink_ns_capable() checks to rtnl_newlink(), from Eric W Biederman. 20) The amount of header space needed in macvtap was not calculated properly, fix it otherwise we splat past the beginning of the packet. From Eric Dumazet. 21) Fix bcmgenet TCP TX perf regression, from Jaedon Shin. 22) Don't raw initialize or mod timers, use setup_timer() and mod_timer() instead. From Vaishali Thakkar. 23) Fix software maintained statistics in bcmgenet and systemport drivers, from Florian Fainelli. 24) DMA descriptor updates in sh_eth need proper memory barriers, from Ben Hutchings. 25) Don't do UDP Fragmentation Offload on RAW sockets, from Michal Kubecek. 26) Openvswitch's non-masked set actions aren't constructed properly into netlink messages, fix from Joe Stringer. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (116 commits) openvswitch: Fix serialization of non-masked set actions. gianfar: Reduce logging noise seen due to phy polling if link is down ibmveth: Add function to enable live MAC address changes net: bridge: add compile-time assert for cb struct size udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM sockets sh_eth: Really fix padding of short frames on TX Revert "sh_eth: Enable Rx descriptor word 0 shift for r8a7790" sh_eth: Fix RX recovery on R-Car in case of RX ring underrun sh_eth: Ensure proper ordering of descriptor active bit write/read net/mlx4_en: Disbale GRO for incoming loopback/selftest packets net/mlx4_core: Fix wrong mask and error flow for the update-qp command net: systemport: fix software maintained statistics net: bcmgenet: fix software maintained statistics rxrpc: don't multiply with HZ twice rxrpc: terminate retrans loop when sending of skb fails net/hsr: Fix NULL pointer dereference and refcnt bugs when deleting a HSR interface. net: pasemi: Use setup_timer and mod_timer net: stmmac: Use setup_timer and mod_timer net: 8390: axnet_cs: Use setup_timer and mod_timer net: 8390: pcnet_cs: Use setup_timer and mod_timer ...

git://git.linaro.org/people/mike.turquette/linux Pull clock framework updates from Mike Turquette: "The clock framework changes contain the usual driver additions, enhancements and fixes mostly for ARM32, ARM64, MIPS and Power-based devices. Additionally the framework core underwent a bit of surgery with two major changes: - The boundary between the clock core and clock providers (e.g clock drivers) is now more well defined with dedicated provider helper functions. struct clk no longer maps 1:1 with the hardware clock but is a true per-user cookie which helps us tracker users of hardware clocks and debug bad behavior. - The addition of rate constraints for clocks. Rate ranges are now supported which are analogous to the voltage ranges in the regulator framework. Unfortunately these changes to the core created some breakeage.

2015-02-16rtc: add driver for DS1685 family of real time clocksJoshua Kinard1-0/+6
This adds a driver for the Dallas/Maxim DS1685-family of RTC chips. It supports the DS1685/DS1687, DS1688/DS1691, DS1689/DS1693, DS17285/DS17287, DS17485/DS17487, and DS17885/DS17887 RTC chips. These chips are commonly found in SGI O2 and SGI Octane systems. It was originally derived from a driver patch submitted by Matthias Fuchs many years ago for use in EPPC-405-UC modules, which also used these RTCs. In addition to the time-keeping functions, this RTC also handles the shutdown mechanism of the O2 and Octane and acts as a partial NVRAM for the boot PROMS in these systems. Verified on both an SGI O2 and an SGI Octane.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jikos/livepatching Pull live patching infrastructure from Jiri Kosina: "Let me provide a bit of history first, before describing what is in this pile. Originally, there was kSplice as a standalone project that implemented stop_machine()-based patching for the linux kernel. This project got later acquired, and the current owner is providing live patching as a proprietary service, without any intentions to have their implementation merged. Then, due to rising user/customer demand, both Red Hat and SUSE started working on their own implementation (not knowing about each other), and announced first versions roughly at the same time [1] [2]. The principle difference between the two solutions is how they are making sure that the patching is performed in a consistent way when it comes to different execution threads with respect to the semantic nature of the change that is being introduced. In a nutshell, kPatch is issuing stop_machine(), then looking at stacks of all existing processess, and if it decides that the system is in a state that can be patched safely, it proceeds insterting code redirection machinery to the patched functions. On the other hand, kGraft provides a per-thread consistency during one single pass of a process through the kernel and performs a lazy contignuous migration of threads from "unpatched" universe to the "patched" one at safe checkpoints. If interested in a more detailed discussion about the consistency models and its possible combinations, please see the thread that evolved around [3]. It pretty quickly became obvious to the interested parties that it's absolutely impractical in this case to have several isolated solutions for one task to co-exist in the kernel. During a dedicated Live Kernel Patching track at LPC in Dusseldorf, all the interested parties sat together and came up with a joint aproach that would work for both distro vendors. Steven Rostedt took notes [4] from this meeting. And the foundation for that aproach is what's present in this pull request. It provides a basic infrastructure for function "live patching" (i.e. code redirection), including API for kernel modules containing the actual patches, and API/ABI for userspace to be able to operate on the patches (look up what patches are applied, enable/disable them, etc). It's relatively simple and minimalistic, as it's making use of existing kernel infrastructure (namely ftrace) as much as possible. It's also self-contained, in a sense that it doesn't hook itself in any other kernel subsystem (it doesn't even touch any other code). It's now implemented for x86 only as a reference architecture, but support for powerpc, s390 and arm is already in the works (adding arch-specific support basically boils down to teaching ftrace about regs-saving). Once this common infrastructure gets merged, both Red Hat and SUSE have agreed to immediately start porting their current solutions on top of this, abandoning their out-of-tree code. The plan basically is that each patch will be marked by flag(s) that would indicate which consistency model it is willing to use (again, the details have been sketched out already in the thread at [3]). Before this happens, the current codebase can be used to patch a large group of secruity/stability problems the patches for which are not too complex (in a sense that they don't introduce non-trivial change of function's return value semantics, they don't change layout of data structures, etc) -- this corresponds to LEAVE_FUNCTION && SWITCH_FUNCTION semantics described at [3]. This tree has been in linux-next since December.
