Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
period of time"
1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
registration. Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
counts for their ops array rather than something like
ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar. Also, some genetlink protocols were
using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.
We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
other protocols can not possibly conflict.
In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.
2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
is one the driver actually supports. From Ben Hutchings.
3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.
4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order
relative to skb_scrub_packet(). From Alexei Starovoitov.
5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make
calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid. Fix from Toshiaki
Makita.
6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.
7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices
that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance
decrease. One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in
wireless. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Fix crashes in tcp_fastopen_cache_get(), we can see NULL socket dsts
here. Fix from Eric Dumzaet, reported by Dave Jones.
9) Fix use after free in ipv6 SIT driver, from Willem de Bruijn.
10) When computing mergeable buffer sizes, virtio-net fails to take the
virtio-net header into account. From Michael Dalton.
11) Fix seqlock deadlock in ip4_datagram_connect() wrt. statistic
bumping, this one has been with us for a while. From Eric Dumazet.
12) Fix NULL deref in the new TIPC fragmentation handling, from Erik
Hugne.
13) 6lowpan bit used for traffic classification was wrong, from Jukka
Rissanen.
14) macvlan has the same issue as normal vlans did wrt. propagating LRO
disabling down to the real device, fix it the same way. From Michal
Kubecek.
15) CPSW driver needs to soft reset all slaves during suspend, from
Daniel Mack.
16) Fix small frame pacing in FQ packet scheduler, from Eric Dumazet.
17) The xen-netfront RX buffer refill timer isn't properly scheduled on
partial RX allocation success, from Ma JieYue.
18) When ipv6 ping protocol support was added, the AF_INET6 protocol
initialization cleanup path on failure was borked a little. Fix
from Vlad Yasevich.
19) If a socket disconnects during a read/recvmsg/recvfrom/etc that
blocks we can do the wrong thing with the msg_name we write back to
userspace. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. There is another fix in the
works from Hannes which will prevent future problems of this nature.
20) Fix route leak in VTI tunnel transmit, from Fan Du.

Secondary unicast MAC addresses will get deleted only when the interface is UP.
When the interface is DOWN, though these secondary MAC addresses are unusable
and awaiting to be deleted, cause the firmware to believe that they are being used.
If the user intends to set a MAC address as primary MAC from one of these
secondary MAC addresses, the firmware returns a MAC address Collision error.
Delete these secondary MAC addresses during be_close.
The secondary MAC addresses list will be refreshed during interface open anyway.

The driver currently requests the firmware to enable rx_interface options
without considering if the interface was created with that capability.
This could cause commands to firmware to fail.

During VF load, prior to sending messages on HW channel to PF the VF
checks its bulletin board to see whether the PF indicated it has closed;
If a closed PF is encountered, the VF skips sending the message.
Due to incorrect return values, there's a possible scenario in which the VF
finishes loading "successfully", while the PF hasn't actually fully configured
FW/HW for the VFs supposed configuration.
Once VF tries to send Tx packets, HW will raise an attention (and FW possibly
will start treat the VF as malicious).
The patch fails the loading process in such a scenario.

If chip enters a recovery flow just after the driver issues a DMAE request
the DMAE will timeout. Current code will cause a bnx2x_panic() as a result,
which means interface will no longer be usable (regardless of the recovery
results), as bnx2x_panic() is irreversible for the driver.
As this is a possible flow, the panic should be reached only when driver
is compiled with STOP_ON_ERROR.

Because dma-debug add new interfaces to debug dma mapping errors, pls refer
to: http://lwn.net/Articles/516640/
After dma mapping, it must call dma_mapping_error() to check mapping error,
otherwise the map_err_type alway is MAP_ERR_NOT_CHECKED, check_unmap() define
the mapping is not checked and dump the error msg. So,add dma_mapping_error()
checking to fix the WARNING
And RX DMA buffers are used repeatedly and the driver copies it into an skb,
fec_enet_rx() should not map or unmap, use dma_sync_single_for_cpu()/dma_sync_single_for_device()
instead of dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single().
There have another potential issue: fec_enet_rx() passes the DMA address to __va().
Physical and DMA addresses are *not* the same thing. They may differ if the device
is behind an IOMMU or bounce buffering was required, or just because there is a fixed
offset between the device and host physical addresses. Also fix it in this patch.
=============================================
V2: add net_ratelimit() to limit map err message.
use dma_sync_single_for_cpu() instead of dma_map_single().
fix the issue that pass DMA addresses to __va() to get virture address.
V1: initial send

Also correct the error code for hardware versions that don't

Pull DMA mask updates from Russell King:
"This series cleans up the handling of DMA masks in a lot of drivers,
fixing some bugs as we go.
Some of the more serious errors include:
- drivers which only set their coherent DMA mask if the attempt to
set the streaming mask fails.
- drivers which test for a NULL dma mask pointer, and then set the
dma mask pointer to a location in their module .data section -
which will cause problems if the module is reloaded.
To counter these, I have introduced two helper functions:
- dma_set_mask_and_coherent() takes care of setting both the
streaming and coherent masks at the same time, with the correct
error handling as specified by the API.
- dma_coerce_mask_and_coherent() which resolves the problem of
drivers forcefully setting DMA masks. This is more a marker for
future work to further clean these locations up - the code which
creates the devices really should be initialising these, but to fix
that in one go along with this change could potentially be very
disruptive.
The last thing this series does is prise away some of Linux's addition
to "DMA addresses are physical addresses and RAM always starts at
zero". We have ARM LPAE systems where all system memory is above 4GB
physical, hence having DMA masks interpreted by (eg) the block layers
as describing physical addresses in the range 0..DMAMASK fails on
these platforms. Santosh Shilimkar addresses this in this series; the
patches were copied to the appropriate people multiple times but were
ignored.
Fixing this also gets rid of some ARM weirdness in the setup of the
max*pfn variables, and brings ARM into line with every other Linux
architecture as far as those go"

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.

The max_vfs parameter has a limit of 63 and silently fails (adding 0 vfs) when
it is out of range. This patch adds a warning so that the user knows something
went wrong. Also, this patch moves the warning in ixgbe_enable_sriov() to where
max_vfs is checked, so that even an out of range value will show the deprecated
warning. Previously, an out of range parameter didn't even warn the user to use
the new sysfs interface instead.

The number of stations in use is kept in the num_rx_pools counter
in the ixgbe_adapter structure. This is in turn used by the queue
allocation scheme to determine how many queues are needed to support
the number of pools in use with the current feature set.
This works as long as the pools are added and destroyed in order
because (num_rx_pools * queues_per_pool) is equal to the last
queue in use by a pool. But as soon as you delete a pool out of
order this is no longer the case. So the above multiplication
allocates to few queues and a pool may reference a ring that has
not been allocated/initialized.
To resolve use the bit mask of in use pools to determine the final
pool being used and allocate enough queues so that we don't
inadvertently remove its queues.
# ip link add link eth2 \

# ip link set dev macvlan0 up

In the recent support for layer 2 hardware acceleration, I added a
few references to real_num_rx_queues and num_rx_queues which are
only available with CONFIG_RPS.
The fix is first to remove unnecessary references to num_rx_queues.
Because the hardware offload case is limited to cases where RX queues
and TX queues are equal we only need a single check. Then wrap the
single case in an ifdef.
The patch that introduce this is here,

Changing MTU size of an xgmac network interface while it is active can
cause a panic like
skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:c03bc62c len:1090 put:1090 head:edfb6900 data:edfb6942 tail:0xedfb6d84 end:0xedfb6bc0 dev:eth0
------------[ cut here ]------------
kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:126!
Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] SMP ARM
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 762 Comm: python Tainted: G W 3.10.0-00015-g3e33cd7 #309
task: edcfe000 ti: ed67e000 task.ti: ed67e000
PC is at skb_panic+0x64/0x70
LR is at wake_up_klogd+0x5c/0x68
This happens because xgmac_change_mtu modifies dev->mtu before the
network interface is quiesced. And thus there still might be buffers
in use which have a buffer size based on the old MTU.
To fix this I moved the change of dev->mtu after the call to
xgmac_stop.
Another modification is required (in xgmac_stop) to ensure that
xgmac_xmit is really not called anymore (xgmac_tx_complete might wake
up the queue again).
I've tested the fix by switching MTU size every second between 600 and
1500 while network traffic was going on. The test box survived a test
of several hours (until I've stopped it) whereas w/o this fix above
panic occurs after several minutes (at most).
Change since v1:
- remove call to netif_stop_queue at beginning of xgmac_stop
- use netif_tx_disable instead of locking+netif_stop_queue

For each RX/TX ring and its CQ, allocation is done on a NUMA node that
corresponds to the core that the data structure should operate on.
The assumption is that the core number is reflected by the ring index.
The affected allocations are the ring/CQ data structures,
the TX/RX info and the shared HW/SW buffer.
For TX rings, each core has rings of all UPs.

To guarantee that all unused fields in all FW commands for both inboxes
and outboxes are zeroed out, initialize the mailbox buffer to all zeroes.
This is especially important for SRIOV comm-channel virtual commands
(such as QUERY_FUNC_CAP), where if new fields are added to support new
features, the driver can depend on older kernels passing zeroes in these
fields.
In addition to zeroing out the mailbox buffer at allocation time, all
(now unnecessary) calls to memset by the callers of
mlx4_alloc_cmd_mailbox() are removed.
