====================
another pull-request for net-next. It consists of two patches by Libo
Chen, the at91 and flexcan driver make use of platform_set_drvdata()
rather than open coding it. Chen Gang improves the error checking in

f925d0a62d net: tcp_probe: add IPv6 support
The tcp_probe currently only supports analysis of IPv4 connections.
Therefore, it would be nice to have IPv6 supported as well. Since we
have the recently added %pISpc specifier that is IPv4/IPv6 generic,
build related sockaddress structures from the flow information and
pass this to our format string. Tested with SSH and HTTP sessions
on IPv4 and IPv6.

b4c1c1d038 net: tcp_probe: also include rcv_wnd next to snd_wnd
It is helpful to sometimes know the TCP window sizes of an established
socket e.g. to confirm that window scaling is working or to tweak the
window size to improve high-latency connections, etc etc. Currently the
TCP snooper only exports the send window size, but not the receive window
size. Therefore, also add the receive window size to the end of the
output line.

0f7cc9a3c2 tcp: increase throughput when reordering is high
The stack currently detects reordering and avoid spurious
retransmission very well. However the throughput is sub-optimal under
high reordering because cwnd is increased only if the data is deliverd
in order. I.e., FLAG_DATA_ACKED check in tcp_ack().  The more packet
are reordered the worse the throughput is.

Therefore when reordering is proven high, cwnd should advance whenever
the data is delivered regardless of its ordering. If reordering is low,
conservatively advance cwnd only on ordered deliveries in Open state,
and retain cwnd in Disordered state (RFC5681).

Using netperf on a qdisc setup of 20Mbps BW and random RTT from 45ms
to 55ms (for reordering effect). This change increases TCP throughput
by 20 - 25% to near bottleneck BW.

A special case is the stretched ACK with new SACK and/or ECE mark.
For example, a receiver may receive an out of order or ECN packet with
unacked data buffered because of LRO or delayed ACK. The principle on
such an ACK is to advance cwnd on the cummulative acked part first,
then reduce cwnd in tcp_fastretrans_alert().

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

This series contains updates to igb and e1000e.

Akeem provides 3 igb patches, the first resets the link when EEE is enabled
or disabled if the link is up.  His second patch changes a register read
which normally stores of the read value to "just-read" so that hardware
can accurately latch the register read.  Lastly, he adds rcu_lock to avoid
a possible race condition with igb_update_stats function.

Mitch provides a fix for SR-IOV, where MSI-X interrupts are required, so
make sure that MSI-X is enabled before allowing the user to turn on SR-IOV.

Alex's igb patch make it so that we limit the lower bound for max_frame_size
to the size of a standard Ethernet frame.  This allows for feature parity
with other Intel based drivers such as ixgbe.

Carolyn adds a SKU for a flashless i210 device and a fix for get_fw_version()
so that it works for all parts for igb.  In addition, she has 2 igb patches
to refactor NVM code to accommodate devices with no flash.  Lastly, she
adds code to check for the failure of pci_disable_link_state() to attempt
to work around a problem found with some systems.

Laura provides the remaining 2 igb patches.  One removing the hard-coded
value for the size of the RETA indirection table, and creates a macro instead
for the RETA indirection table.  The second adds the ethtool callbacks
necessary to change the RETA indirection table from userspace.

Bruce fixes a whitespace issue in a recent commit and resolves a jiffies
comparison warning by using time_after().

Li provides a fix for e1000e to avoid a kernel crash on shutdown by adding
one more check in e1000e_shutdown().  This is due to e1000e_shutdown()
trying to clear correctable errors on the upstream P2P bridge, when under
some cases we do not have the upstream P2P bridge.

v2:
 - fixed patch 11 conditional statement from < to <= based on feedback
   from Ben Hutchings
 - fixed patch 12 patch description (adding the commit summary) based
   on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov

e8c254c5fe e1000e: Avoid kernel crash during shutdown
While doing shutdown on the PCI device, the corresponding callback
function e1000e_shutdown() is trying to clear those correctable
errors on the upstream P2P bridge. Unfortunately, we don't have
the upstream P2P bridge under some cases (e.g. PCI-passthrou for
KVM on Power). That leads to kernel crash eventually.

The patch adds one more check on that to avoid kernel crash.

ed12cc9a14 igb: Expose RSS indirection table for ethtool
This patch adds the ethtool callbacks necessary to change the RETA
indirection table from userspace.

In order to achieve this, we add the indirection table field (rss_indir_tbl)
in the board specific data structure (struct igb_adapter) to preserve the
values across hardware resets.

The indirection table must be initialized with default values in the
following cases:
	* at module init time
	* when the number of RX queues changes.
For this reason we add a new field (rss_indir_tbl_init) in igb_adapter
that keeps track of the number of RX queues. Whenever the number of RX
queues changes, the rss_indir_tbl is modified and initialized with default
values. The rss_indir_tbl_init is updated accordingly.

dcbe8a1a42 net: fec_mpc52xx_phy: remove unnecessary dev_set_drvdata()
Unnecessary dev_set_drvdata() is removed, because the driver core
clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure.

e2748d7e93 Merge branch 'tuntap'
Pavel Emelyanov says:

====================
tun: Some bits required for tun's checkpoint-restore (v2)

After taking a closer look on tun checkpoint-restore I've found several
issues with the tun's API that make it impossible to dump and restore
the state of tun device and attached tun-files.

The proposed API changes are all about extending the existing ioctl-based
stuff. Patches fit today's net-next.

This v2 has David's comments about patch #1 fixed. All the rest is the same.

76975e9cb4 tun: Get skfilter layout
The only thing we may have from tun device is the fprog, whic contains
the number of filter elements and a pointer to (user-space) memory
where the elements are. The program itself may not be available if the
device is persistent and detached.

849c9b6f93 tun: Allow to skip filter on attach
There's a small problem with sk-filters on tun devices. Consider
an application doing this sequence of steps:

fd = open("/dev/net/tun");
ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" });
ioctl(fd, TUNATTACHFILTER, &my_filter);
ioctl(fd, TUNSETPERSIST, 1);
close(fd);

At that point the tun0 will remain in the system and will keep in
mind that there should be a socket filter at address '&my_filter'.

If after that we do

fd = open("/dev/net/tun");
ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" });

we most likely receive the -EFAULT error, since tun_attach() would
try to connect the filter back. But (!) if we provide a filter at
address &my_filter, then tun0 will be created and the "new" filter
would be attached, but application may not know about that.

This may create certain problems to anyone using tun-s, but it's
critical problem for c/r -- if we meet a persistent tun device
with a filter in mind, we will not be able to attach to it to dump
its state (flags, owner, address, vnethdr size, etc.).

The proposal is to allow to attach to tun device (with TUNSETIFF)
w/o attaching the filter to the tun-file's socket. After this
attach app may e.g clean the device by dropping the filter, it
doesn't want to have one, or (in case of c/r) get information
about the device with tun ioctls.

3d407a80b6 tun: Report whether the queue is attached or not
Multiqueue tun devices allow to attach and detach from its queues
while keeping the interface itself set on file.

Knowing this is critical for the checkpoint part of criu project.

fb7589a162 tun: Add ability to create tun device with given index
Tun devices cannot be created with ifidex user wants, but it's
required by checkpoint-restore project.

Long time ago such ability was implemented for rtnl_ops-based
interface for creating links (9c7dafbf net: Allow to create links
with given ifindex), but the only API for creating and managing
tuntap devices is ioctl-based and is evolving with adding new ones
(cde8b15f tuntap: add ioctl to attach or detach a file form tuntap
device).

Following that trend, here's how a new ioctl that sets the ifindex
for device, that _will_ be created by TUNSETIFF ioctl looks like.
So those who want a tuntap device with the ifindex N, should open
the tun device, call ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFINDEX, &N), then call TUNSETIFF.
If the index N is busy, then the register_netdev will find this out
and the ioctl would be failed with -EBUSY.

If setifindex is not called, then it will be generated as before.
