a33bc5c151 xfrm: select sane defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh
Choose saner defaults for xfrm[4|6] gc_thresh values on init

Currently, the xfrm[4|6] code has hard-coded initial gc_thresh values
(set to 1024).  Given that the ipv4 and ipv6 routing caches are sized
dynamically at boot time, the static selections can be non-sensical.
This patch dynamically selects an appropriate gc threshold based on
the corresponding main routing table size, using the assumption that
we should in the worst case be able to handle as many connections as
the routing table can.

For ipv4, the maximum route cache size is 16 * the number of hash
buckets in the route cache.  Given that xfrm4 starts garbage
collection at the gc_thresh and prevents new allocations at 2 *
gc_thresh, we set gc_thresh to half the maximum route cache size.

For ipv6, its a bit trickier.  there is no maximum route cache size,
but the ipv6 dst_ops gc_thresh is statically set to 1024.  It seems
sane to select a simmilar gc_thresh for the xfrm6 code that is half
the number of hash buckets in the v6 route cache times 16 (like the v4
code does).

3fa52056f3 mac80211: fix PS-poll response, race
When a station queries us for a PS-poll response, we wrongly
queue the frame on the virtual interface's queue rather than
the pending queue.

Additionally, fix a race condition where we could potentially
send multiple frames to the sleeping station due to using a
station flag rather than a packet flag. When converting to a
packet flag, we can also convert p54 and remove the filter
clearing we added for it.

(Also remove a now dead function)

463d018323 cfg80211: make aware of net namespaces
In order to make cfg80211/nl80211 aware of network namespaces,
we have to do the following things:

 * del_virtual_intf method takes an interface index rather
   than a netdev pointer - simply change this

 * nl80211 uses init_net a lot, it changes to use the sender's
   network namespace

 * scan requests use the interface index, hold a netdev pointer
   and reference instead

 * we want a wiphy and its associated virtual interfaces to be
   in one netns together, so
    - we need to be able to change ns for a given interface, so
      export dev_change_net_namespace()
    - for each virtual interface set the NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL
      flag, and clear that flag only when the wiphy changes ns,
      to disallow breaking this invariant

 * when a network namespace goes away, we need to reparent the
   wiphy to init_net

 * cfg80211 users that support creating virtual interfaces must
   create them in the wiphy's namespace, currently this affects
   only mac80211

The end result is that you can now switch an entire wiphy into
a different network namespace with the new command
	iw phy#<idx> set netns <pid>
and all virtual interfaces will follow (or the operation fails).

fffd0934b9 cfg80211: rework key operation
This reworks the key operation in cfg80211, and now only
allows, from userspace, configuring keys (via nl80211)
after the connection has been established (in managed
mode), the IBSS been joined (in IBSS mode), at any time
(in AP[_VLAN] modes) or never for all the other modes.

In order to do shared key authentication correctly, it
is now possible to give a WEP key to the AUTH command.
To configure static WEP keys, these are given to the
CONNECT or IBSS_JOIN command directly, for a userspace
SME it is assumed it will configure it properly after
the connection has been established.

Since mac80211 used to check the default key in IBSS
mode to see whether or not the network is protected,
it needs an update in that area, as well as an update
to make use of the WEP key passed to auth() for shared
key authentication.

4dc6dc7162 net: sock_copy() fixes
Commit e912b1142b
(net: sk_prot_alloc() should not blindly overwrite memory)
took care of not zeroing whole new socket at allocation time.

sock_copy() is another spot where we should be very careful.
We should not set refcnt to a non null value, until
we are sure other fields are correctly setup, or
a lockless reader could catch this socket by mistake,
while not fully (re)initialized.

This patch puts sk_node & sk_refcnt to the very beginning
of struct sock to ease sock_copy() & sk_prot_alloc() job.

We add appropriate smp_wmb() before sk_refcnt initializations
to match our RCU requirements (changes to sock keys should
be committed to memory before sk_refcnt setting)

134e63756d genetlink: make netns aware
This makes generic netlink network namespace aware. No
generic netlink families except for the controller family
are made namespace aware, they need to be checked one by
one and then set the family->netnsok member to true.

A new function genlmsg_multicast_netns() is introduced to
allow sending a multicast message in a given namespace,
for example when it applies to an object that lives in
that namespace, a new function genlmsg_multicast_allns()
to send a message to all network namespaces (for objects
that do not have an associated netns).

The function genlmsg_multicast() is changed to multicast
the message in just init_net, which is currently correct
for all generic netlink families since they only work in
init_net right now. Some will later want to work in all
net namespaces because they do not care about the netns
at all -- those will have to be converted to use one of
the new functions genlmsg_multicast_allns() or
genlmsg_multicast_netns() whenever they are made netns
aware in some way.

After this patch families can easily decide whether or
not they should be available in all net namespaces. Many
genl families us it for objects not related to networking
and should therefore be available in all namespaces, but
that will have to be done on a per family basis.

Note that this doesn't touch on the checkpoint/restart
problem where network namespaces could be used, genl
families and multicast groups are numbered globally and
I see no easy way of changing that, especially since it
must be possible to multicast to all network namespaces
for those families that do not care about netns.

667503ddcb cfg80211: fix locking
Over time, a lot of locking issues have crept into
the smarts of cfg80211, so e.g. scan completion can
race against a new scan, IBSS join can race against
leaving an IBSS, etc.

Introduce a new per-interface lock that protects
most of the per-interface data that we need to keep
track of, and sprinkle assertions about that lock
everywhere. Some things now need to be offloaded to
work structs so that we don't require being able to
sleep in functions the drivers call. The exception
to that are the MLME callbacks (rx_auth etc.) that
currently only mac80211 calls because it was easier
to do that there instead of in cfg80211, and future
drivers implementing those calls will, if they ever
exist, probably need to use a similar scheme like
mac80211 anyway...

In order to be able to handle _deauth and _disassoc
properly, introduce a cookie passed to it that will
determine locking requirements.

aff89a9b90 cfg80211: introduce nl80211 testmode command
This introduces a new NL80211_CMD_TESTMODE for testing
and calibration use with nl80211. There's no multiplexing
like like iwpriv had, and the command is not available by
default, it needs to be explicitly enabled in Kconfig and
shouldn't be enabled in most kernels.

The command requires a wiphy index or interface index to
identify the device to operate on, and the new TESTDATA
attribute. There also is API for sending replies to the
command, and testmode multicast messages (on a testmode
multicast group).

I've also updated mac80211 to be able to pass through the
command to the driver, since it itself doesn't implement
the testmode command.

Additionally, to give people an idea of how to use the
command, I've added a little code to hwsim that makes use
of the new command to set the powersave mode, this is
currently done via debugfs and should remain there, and
the testmode command only serves as an example of how to
use this best -- with nested netlink attributes in the
TESTDATA attribute. A hwsim testmode tool can be found at
http://git.sipsolutions.net/hwsim.git/. This tool is BSD
licensed so people can easily use it as a basis for their
own internal fabrication and validation tools.

f1d58c2521 mac80211: push rx status into skb->cb
Within mac80211, we often need to copy the rx status into
skb->cb. This is wasteful, as drivers could be building it
in there to start with. This patch changes the API so that
drivers are expected to pass the RX status in skb->cb, now
accessible as IEEE80211_SKB_RXCB(skb). It also updates all
drivers to pass the rx status in there, but only by making
them memcpy() it into place before the call to the receive
function (ieee80211_rx(_irqsafe)). Each driver can now be
optimised on its own schedule.

a57de0b433 net: adding memory barrier to the poll and receive callbacks
Adding memory barrier after the poll_wait function, paired with
receive callbacks. Adding fuctions sock_poll_wait and sk_has_sleeper
to wrap the memory barrier.

Without the memory barrier, following race can happen.
The race fires, when following code paths meet, and the tp->rcv_nxt
and __add_wait_queue updates stay in CPU caches.

CPU1                         CPU2

sys_select                   receive packet
  ...                        ...
  __add_wait_queue           update tp->rcv_nxt
  ...                        ...
  tp->rcv_nxt check          sock_def_readable
  ...                        {
  schedule                      ...
                                if (sk->sk_sleep && waitqueue_active(sk->sk_sleep))
                                        wake_up_interruptible(sk->sk_sleep)
                                ...
                             }

If there was no cache the code would work ok, since the wait_queue and
rcv_nxt are opposit to each other.

Meaning that once tp->rcv_nxt is updated by CPU2, the CPU1 either already
passed the tp->rcv_nxt check and sleeps, or will get the new value for
tp->rcv_nxt and will return with new data mask.
In both cases the process (CPU1) is being added to the wait queue, so the
waitqueue_active (CPU2) call cannot miss and will wake up CPU1.

The bad case is when the __add_wait_queue changes done by CPU1 stay in its
cache, and so does the tp->rcv_nxt update on CPU2 side.  The CPU1 will then
endup calling schedule and sleep forever if there are no more data on the
socket.

When NAT helpers change the TCP packet size, the highest seen sequence
number needs to be corrected. This is currently only done upwards, when
the packet size is reduced the sequence number is unchanged. This causes
TCP conntrack to falsely detect unacknowledged data and decrease the
timeout.

Fix by updating the highest seen sequence number in both directions after
packet mangling.

d55d87fdff net: Move rx skb_orphan call to where needed
In order to get the tun driver to account packets, we need to be
able to receive packets with destructors set.  To be on the safe
side, I added an skb_orphan call for all protocols by default since
some of them (IP in particular) cannot handle receiving packets
destructors properly.

Now it seems that at least one protocol (CAN) expects to be able
to pass skb->sk through the rx path without getting clobbered.

So this patch attempts to fix this properly by moving the skb_orphan
call to where it's actually needed.  In particular, I've added it
to skb_set_owner_[rw] which is what most users of skb->destructor
call.

This is actually an improvement for tun too since it means that
we only give back the amount charged to the socket when the skb
is passed to another socket that will also be charged accordingly.

If the iucv message limit for a communication path is exceeded,

The calling application can then handle this error situtation,
e.g. to try again after waiting some time.

For blocking sockets, sendmsg() waits up to the socket timeout
before returning -EAGAIN. For the new wait condition, a macro
has been introduced and the iucv_sock_wait_state() has been
refactored to this macro.

dd7669a92c netfilter: conntrack: optional reliable conntrack event delivery
This patch improves ctnetlink event reliability if one broadcast
listener has set the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket option.

The logic is the following: if an event delivery fails, we keep
the undelivered events in the missed event cache. Once the next
packet arrives, we add the new events (if any) to the missed
events in the cache and we try a new delivery, and so on. Thus,
if ctnetlink fails to deliver an event, we try to deliver them
once we see a new packet. Therefore, we may lose state
transitions but the userspace process gets in sync at some point.

At worst case, if no events were delivered to userspace, we make
sure that destroy events are successfully delivered. Basically,
if ctnetlink fails to deliver the destroy event, we remove the
conntrack entry from the hashes and we insert them in the dying
list, which contains inactive entries. Then, the conntrack timer
is added with an extra grace timeout of random32() % 15 seconds
to trigger the event again (this grace timeout is tunable via
/proc). The use of a limited random timeout value allows
distributing the "destroy" resends, thus, avoiding accumulating
lots "destroy" events at the same time. Event delivery may
re-order but we can identify them by means of the tuple plus
the conntrack ID.

The maximum number of conntrack entries (active or inactive) is
still handled by nf_conntrack_max. Thus, we may start dropping
packets at some point if we accumulate a lot of inactive conntrack
entries that did not successfully report the destroy event to
userspace.

During my stress tests consisting of setting a very small buffer
of 2048 bytes for conntrackd and the NETLINK_BROADCAST_ERROR socket
flag, and generating lots of very small connections, I noticed
very few destroy entries on the fly waiting to be resend.

A simple way to test this patch consist of creating a lot of
entries, set a very small Netlink buffer in conntrackd (+ a patch
which is not in the git tree to set the BROADCAST_ERROR flag)
and invoke `conntrack -F'.

For expectations, no changes are introduced in this patch.
Currently, event delivery is only done for new expectations (no
events from expectation expiration, removal and confirmation).
In that case, they need a per-expectation event cache to implement
the same idea that is exposed in this patch.

This patch can be useful to provide reliable flow-accouting. We
still have to add a new conntrack extension to store the creation
and destroy time.

a0891aa6a6 netfilter: conntrack: move event caching to conntrack extension infrastructure
This patch reworks the per-cpu event caching to use the conntrack
extension infrastructure.

The main drawback is that we consume more memory per conntrack
if event delivery is enabled. This patch is required by the
reliable event delivery that follows to this patch.

BTW, this patch allows you to enable/disable event delivery via
/proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_events in runtime, although
you can still disable event caching as compilation option.

2b85a34e91 net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx
One of the problem with sock memory accounting is it uses
a pair of sock_hold()/sock_put() for each transmitted packet.

This slows down bidirectional flows because the receive path
also needs to take a refcount on socket and might use a different
cpu than transmit path or transmit completion path. So these
two atomic operations also trigger cache line bounces.

We can see this in tx or tx/rx workloads (media gateways for example),
where sock_wfree() can be in top five functions in profiles.

We use this sock_hold()/sock_put() so that sock freeing
is delayed until all tx packets are completed.

As we also update sk_wmem_alloc, we could offset sk_wmem_alloc
by one unit at init time, until sk_free() is called.
Once sk_free() is called, we atomic_dec_and_test(sk_wmem_alloc)
to decrement initial offset and atomicaly check if any packets
are in flight.

skb_set_owner_w() doesnt call sock_hold() anymore

sock_wfree() doesnt call sock_put() anymore, but check if sk_wmem_alloc
reached 0 to perform the final freeing.

Drawback is that a skb->truesize error could lead to unfreeable sockets, or
even worse, prematurely calling __sk_free() on a live socket.

Nice speedups on SMP. tbench for example, going from 2691 MB/s to 2711 MB/s
on my 8 cpu dev machine, even if tbench was not really hitting sk_refcnt
contention point. 5 % speedup on a UDP transmit workload (depends
on number of flows), lowering TX completion cpu usage.

8f77f3849c mac80211: do not pass PS frames out of mac80211 again
In order to handle powersave frames properly we had needed
to pass these out to the device queues again, and introduce
the skb->requeue bit. This, however, also has unnecessary
overhead by needing to 'clean up' already tried frames, and
this clean-up code is also buggy when software encryption
is used.

Instead of sending the frames via the master netdev queue
again, simply put them into the pending queue. This also
fixes a problem where frames for that particular station
could be reordered when some were still on the software
queues and older ones are re-injected into the software
queue after them.

9ec7671603 net: add IEEE 802.15.4 socket family implementation
Add support for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks. This implementation
is neither certified nor complete, but aims to that goal. This commit contains
only the socket interface for communication over IEEE 802.15.4 networks.
One can either send RAW datagrams or use SOCK_DGRAM to encapsulate data
inside normal IEEE 802.15.4 packets.

Configuration interface, drivers and software MAC 802.15.4 implementation will
follow.

Initial implementation was done by Maxim Gorbachyov, Maxim Osipov and Pavel
Smolensky as a research project at Siemens AG. Later the stack was heavily
reworked to better suit the linux networking model, and is now maitained
as an open project partially sponsored by Siemens.

a4a710c4a7 pkt_sched: Change PSCHED_SHIFT from 10 to 6
Change PSCHED_SHIFT from 10 to 6 to increase schedulers time
resolution. This will increase 16x a number of (internal) ticks per
nanosecond, and is needed to improve accuracy of schedulers based on
rate tables, like HTB, TBF or CBQ, with rates above 100Mbit. It is
assumed this change is safe for 32bit accounting of time diffs up
to 2 minutes, which should be enough for common use (extremely low
rate values may overflow, so get inaccurate instead). To make full
use of this change an updated iproute2 will be needed. (But using
older iproute2 should be safe too.)

This change breaks ticks - microseconds similarity, so some minor code
fixes might be needed. It is also planned to change naming adequately
eg. to PSCHED_TICKS2NS() etc. in the near future.

19d337dff9 rfkill: rewrite
This patch completely rewrites the rfkill core to address
the following deficiencies:

 * all rfkill drivers need to implement polling where necessary
   rather than having one central implementation

 * updating the rfkill state cannot be done from arbitrary
   contexts, forcing drivers to use schedule_work and requiring
   lots of code

 * rfkill drivers need to keep track of soft/hard blocked
   internally -- the core should do this

 * the rfkill API has many unexpected quirks, for example being
   asymmetric wrt. alloc/free and register/unregister

 * rfkill can call back into a driver from within a function the
   driver called -- this is prone to deadlocks and generally
   should be avoided

 * rfkill-input pointlessly is a separate module

 * drivers need to #ifdef rfkill functions (unless they want to
   depend on or select RFKILL) -- rfkill should provide inlines
   that do nothing if it isn't compiled in

 * the rfkill structure is not opaque -- drivers need to initialise
   it correctly (lots of sanity checking code required) -- instead
   force drivers to pass the right variables to rfkill_alloc()

 * the documentation is hard to read because it always assumes the
   reader is completely clueless and contains way TOO MANY CAPS

 * the rfkill code needlessly uses a lot of locks and atomic
   operations in locked sections

 * fix LED trigger to actually change the LED when the radio state
   changes -- this wasn't done before

This patch also changes nfnetlink_send(). It seems that gfp_any()
returns GFP_KERNEL for user-context request, like those via
ctnetlink, inside the RCU read-side section which is not valid.
Using GFP_KERNEL is also evil since netlink may schedule(),
this leads to "scheduling while atomic" bug reports.

 changed, eg. the TCP, DCCP and SCTP protocol state.
 * IPCT_HELPER, that a helper has been assigned or unassigned to this

e3da574a0d cfg80211: allow wext to remove keys that don't exist
Some applications using wireless extensions expect to be able to
remove a key that doesn't exist. One example is wpa_supplicant
which doesn't actually change behaviour when running into an
error while trying to do that, but it prints an error message
which users interpret as wpa_supplicant having problems.

The safe thing to do is not change the behaviour of wireless
extensions any more, so when the driver reports -ENOENT let
the wext bridge code return success to userspace. To guarantee
this, also document that drivers should return -ENOENT when the
key doesn't exist.

038659e7c6 cfg80211: Process regulatory max bandwidth checks for HT40
We are not correctly listening to the regulatory max bandwidth
settings. To actually make use of it we need to redesign things
a bit. This patch does the work for that. We do this to so we
can obey to regulatory rules accordingly for use of HT40.

We end up dealing with HT40 by having two passes for each channel.

The first check will see if a 20 MHz channel fits into the channel's
center freq on a given frequency range. We check for a 20 MHz
banwidth channel as that is the maximum an individual channel
will use, at least for now. The first pass will go ahead and
check if the regulatory rule for that given center of frequency
allows 40 MHz bandwidths and we use this to determine whether
or not the channel supports HT40 or not. So to support HT40 you'll
need at a regulatory rule that allows you to use 40 MHz channels
but you're channel must also be enabled and support 20 MHz by itself.

The second pass is done after we do the regulatory checks over
an device's supported channel list. On each channel we'll check
if the control channel and the extension both:

 o exist
 o are enabled
 o regulatory allows 40 MHz bandwidth on its frequency range

This work allows allows us to idependently check for HT40- and
HT40+.

3f77316c6b nl80211: Add IEEE 802.1X PAE control for station mode
Add a new NL80211_ATTR_CONTROL_PORT flag for NL80211_CMD_ASSOCIATE to

in station mode. Previously, mac80211 was always marking the port
authorized in station mode. This was enough when drop_unencrypted flag
was set. However, drop_unencrypted can currently be controlled only
with WEXT and the current nl80211 design does not allow fully secure
configuration. Fix this by providing a mechanism for user space to
control the IEEE 802.1X port in station mode (i.e., do the same that
we are already doing in AP mode).

It is currently not possible to modify station flags, but that

and updates the internal API (and mac80211) to mirror that.

that userspace can specify both (if it can) to work on all

no longer report "Security mode:open" or "Security mode:restricted"

used. However, the NL80211_ATTR_USE_MFP attribute is an enum that can
be extended with MFP optional in the future, if that is needed with

5cff20e6c5 mac80211: tell driver when idle
When we aren't doing anything in mac80211, we can turn off
much of the hardware, depending on the driver/hw. Not doing
anything, aka being idle, means:

 * no monitor interfaces
 * no AP/mesh/wds interfaces
 * any station interfaces are in DISABLED state
 * any IBSS interfaces aren't trying to be in a network
 * we aren't trying to scan

By creating a new function that verifies these conditions and calling
it at strategic points where the states of those conditions change,
we can easily make mac80211 tell the driver when we are idle to save
power.

Additionally, this fixes a small quirk where a recalculated powersave
state is passed to the driver even if the hardware is about to stopped
completely.

This patch intentionally doesn't touch radio_enabled because that is
currently implemented to be a soft rfkill which is inappropriate here
when we need to be able to wake up with low latency.

One thing I'm not entirely sure about is this:

  phy0: device no longer idle - in use
  wlan0: direct probe to AP 00:11:24:91:07:4d try 1
  wlan0 direct probe responded
  wlan0: authenticate with AP 00:11:24:91:07:4d
  wlan0: authenticated
> phy0: device now idle
> phy0: device no longer idle - in use
  wlan0: associate with AP 00:11:24:91:07:4d
  wlan0: RX AssocResp from 00:11:24:91:07:4d (capab=0x401 status=0 aid=1)
  wlan0: associated

Is it appropriate to go into idle state for a short time when we have
just authenticated, but not associated yet? This happens only with the
userspace SME, because we cannot really know how long it will wait
before asking us to associate. Would going idle after a short timeout
be more appropriate? We may need to revisit this, depending on what
happens.

57c4d7b4c4 mac80211: clean up beacon interval settings
We currently have two beacon interval configuration knobs:
hw.conf.beacon_int and vif.bss_info.beacon_int. This is
rather confusing, even though the former is used when we
beacon ourselves and the latter when we are associated to
an AP.

This just deprecates the hw.conf.beacon_int setting in favour
of always using vif.bss_info.beacon_int. Since it touches all
the beaconing IBSS code anyway, we can also add support for
the cfg80211 IBSS beacon interval configuration easily.

NOTE: The hw.conf.beacon_int setting is retained for now due
      to drivers still using it -- I couldn't untangle all
      drivers, some are updated in this patch.

a67e899cf3 Bluetooth: Fix issue with sysfs handling for connections
Due to a semantic changes in flush_workqueue() the current approach of
synchronizing the sysfs handling for connections doesn't work anymore. The
whole approach is actually fully broken and based on assumptions that are
no longer valid.

With the introduction of Simple Pairing support, the creation of low-level
ACL links got changed. This change invalidates the reason why in the past
two independent work queues have been used for adding/removing sysfs
devices. The adding of the actual sysfs device is now postponed until the
host controller successfully assigns an unique handle to that link. So
the real synchronization happens inside the controller and not the host.

The only left-over problem is that some internals of the sysfs device
handling are not initialized ahead of time. This leaves potential access
to invalid data and can cause various NULL pointer dereferences. To fix
this a new function makes sure that all sysfs details are initialized
when an connection attempt is made. The actual sysfs device is only
registered when the connection has been successfully established. To
avoid a race condition with the registration, the check if a device is
registered has been moved into the removal work.

As an extra protection two flush_work() calls are left in place to
make sure a previous add/del work has been completed first.

052b30b0a8 Bluetooth: Add different pairing timeout for Legacy Pairing
The Bluetooth stack uses a reference counting for all established ACL
links and if no user (L2CAP connection) is present, the link will be
terminated to save power. The problem part is the dedicated pairing
when using Legacy Pairing (Bluetooth 2.0 and before). At that point
no user is present and pairing attempts will be disconnected within
10 seconds or less. In previous kernel version this was not a problem
since the disconnect timeout wasn't triggered on incoming connections
for the first time. However this caused issues with broken host stacks
that kept the connections around after dedicated pairing. When the
support for Simple Pairing got added, the link establishment procedure
needed to be changed and now causes issues when using Legacy Pairing

When using Simple Pairing it is possible to do a proper reference
counting of ACL link users. With Legacy Pairing this is not possible
since the specification is unclear in some areas and too many broken
Bluetooth devices have already been deployed. So instead of trying to
deal with all the broken devices, a special pairing timeout will be
introduced that increases the timeout to 60 seconds when pairing is
triggered.

If a broken devices now puts the stack into an unforeseen state, the
worst that happens is the disconnect timeout triggers after 120 seconds
instead of 4 seconds. This allows successful pairings with legacy and
broken devices now.

09488e2e0f af_iucv: New socket option for setting IUCV MSGLIMITs
The SO_MSGLIMIT socket option modifies the message limit for new
IUCV communication paths.

The message limit specifies the maximum number of outstanding messages
that are allowed for connections. This setting can be lowered by z/VM
when an IUCV connection is established.

Expects an integer value in the range of 1 to 65535.
The default value is 65535.

The message limit must be set before calling connect() or listen()
for sockets.

If sockets are already connected or in state listen, changing the message
limit is not supported.
For reading the message limit value, unconnected sockets return the limit
that has been set or the default limit. For connected sockets, the actual
message limit is returned. The actual message limit is assigned by z/VM
for each connection and it depends on IUCV MSGLIMIT authorizations
specified for the z/VM guest virtual machine.

04fe20372e mac80211: calculate maximum sleep interval
The maximum sleep interval, for powersave purposes, is
determined by the DTIM period (it may not be larger)
and the required networking latency (it must be small
enough to fulfil those constraints).

This makes mac80211 calculate the maximum sleep interval
based on those constraints, and pass it to the driver.
Then the driver should instruct the device to sleep at
most that long.

Note that the device is responsible for aligning the
maximum sleep interval between DTIMs, we make sure it's
not longer but it needs to make sure it's between them.

Also, group some powersave documentation together and
make it more explicit that we support managed mode only,
and no IBSS powersaving (yet).
