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.

glibc recently changed the error string for ESTALE to remove "NFS" -

from: [ERR_REMAP (ESTALE)] = N_("Stale NFS file handle"),
to: [ERR_REMAP (ESTALE)] = N_("Stale file handle"),
And some have expressed concern that the kernel's errno.h
comments still refer to NFS.
So make that change... note that this is a comment-only change,
and has no functional difference.

The GIC interrupt offsets are calculated based on the value of NR_CPUS.
However, this is wrong because NR_CPUS may or may not contain the real
number of the actual cpus present in the system. We fix that by using
the 'nr_cpu_ids' variable which contains the real number of cpus in
the system. Previously, an MT core (eg with 8 VPEs) will fail to boot if
NR_CPUS was > 8 with the following errors:

Allow usage of scratch register for current pgd even when
MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is not configured. MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is set
for 64r2 platforms to indicate availability of Xcontext for saving
cpuid, thus freeing Context to be used for saving PGD. This option
was also tied to using a scratch register for storing PGD.
This commit will allow usage of scratch register to store the current
pgd if one can be allocated for the platform, even when
MIPS_PGD_C0_CONTEXT is not set. The cpuid will be kept in the CP0
Context register in this case.
The code to store the current pgd for the TLB miss handler is now
generated in all cases. When scratch register is available, the PGD
is also stored in the scratch register.

There is no reliable way to tell R4000/R4400 SC and MC variations apart,
however simple heuristic should give good results. Only the MC version
supports coherent caching so we can rely on such a mode having been set
for KSEG0 by the power-on firmware to reliably indicate an MC processor.
SC processors reportedly hang on coherent cached memory accesses and Linux
is linked to a cached load address so the firmware has to use the correct
caching mode to download the kernel image in a cached mode successfully.
OTOH if the firmware chooses to use either the non-coherent cached or the
uncached mode for KSEG0 on an MC processor, then the SC variant will be
reported, just as we currently do, so no regression here.

This change complements commits d0da7c002f7b2a93582187a9e3f73891a01d8ee4
[MIPS: DEC: Convert to new irq_chip functions] and
5359b938c0 [MIPS: DECstation I/O ASIC DMA
interrupt handling fix] and implements automatic handling of the two
classes of DMA interrupts the I/O ASIC implements, informational and
errors.
Informational DMA interrupts do not stop the transfer and use the
`handle_edge_irq' handler that clears the request right away so that
another request may be recorded while the previous is being handled.
DMA error interrupts stop the transfer and require a corrective action
before DMA can be reenabled. Therefore they use the `handle_fasteoi_irq'
handler that only clears the request on the way out. Because MIPS
processor interrupt inputs, one of which the I/O ASIC's interrupt
controller is cascaded to, are level-triggered it is recommended that
error DMA interrupt action handlers are registered with the IRQF_ONESHOT
flag set so that they are run with the interrupt line masked.
This change removes the export of clear_ioasic_dma_irq that now does not
have to be called by device drivers to clear interrupts explicitly
anymore. Originally these interrupts were cleared in the .end handler of
the `irq_chip' structure, before it was removed.

The semantics stay the same - on Cavium Octeon the functions were dead
code (it overrides the MIPS DMA ops) - on other platforms they contained
no code at all.

Add support for the LZ4 compression scheme in the ZBOOT decompression
stub, in order to support it we need to:
- select the "lz4" compression tool to compress the vmlinux.bin
payload
- memcpy() is also required for decompress_unlz4.c so we share the
implementation between GZIP, XZ and now LZ4

There is currently no corresponding ELF program header for the "text"
loadable segment which is confusing for some bootloader out there such
as CFE because it expects to find a program header matching the segment
it is trying to load. The Linux kernel ELF binary "vmlinux" has a
similar program header for the text segment so we just mimic this here
too.
