Since we've added support for IFLA_IF_NETNSID for RTM_{DEL,GET,SET,NEW}LINK
it is possible for userspace to send us requests with three different
properties to identify a target network namespace. This affects at least
RTM_{NEW,SET}LINK. Each of them could potentially refer to a different
network namespace which is confusing. For legacy reasons the kernel will
pick the IFLA_NET_NS_PID property first and then look for the
IFLA_NET_NS_FD property but there is no reason to extend this type of
behavior to network namespace ids. The regression potential is quite
minimal since the rtnetlink requests in question either won't allow
IFLA_IF_NETNSID requests before 4.16 is out (RTM_{NEW,SET}LINK) or don't
support IFLA_NET_NS_{PID,FD} (RTM_{DEL,GET}LINK) in the first place.

If userspace wants to determine whether RTM_NEWLINK supports the

with IFLA_IF_NETNSID on lo. If either EACCESS is returned or the reply
does not include IFLA_IF_NETNSID userspace should assume that
IFLA_IF_NETNSID is not supported on this kernel.
If the reply does contain an IFLA_IF_NETNSID property userspace
can send an RTM_NEWLINK with a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property. If they receive
EOPNOTSUPP then the kernel does not support the IFLA_IF_NETNSID property
with RTM_NEWLINK. Userpace should then fallback to other means.

This patch promotes the local change_tx_queue_len() to a core

following patch.
Note, the -EFAULT in the original code doesn't make sense,
we should propagate the errno from notifiers.

RTM_{NEW,SET}LINK already allow operations on other network namespaces
by identifying the target network namespace through IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID}
properties. This is done by looking for the corresponding properties in
do_setlink(). Extend do_setlink() to also look for the IFLA_IF_NETNSID
property. This introduces no functional changes since all callers of
do_setlink() currently block IFLA_IF_NETNSID by reporting an error before
they reach do_setlink().
This introduces the helpers:
static struct net *rtnl_link_get_net_by_nlattr(struct net *src_net, struct
nlattr *tb[])
static struct net *rtnl_link_get_net_capable(const struct sk_buff *skb,
struct net *src_net,
struct nlattr *tb[], int cap)
to simplify permission checks and target network namespace retrieval for
RTM_* requests that already support IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} but get extended
to IFLA_IF_NETNSID. To perserve backwards compatibility the helpers look
for IFLA_NET_NS_{FD,PID} properties first before checking for
IFLA_IF_NETNSID.

Four patches from Or that add Hairpin support to mlx5:
===========================================================
From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>
We refer the ability of NIC HW to fwd packet received on one port to
the other port (also from a port to itself) as hairpin. The application API
is based
on ingress tc/flower rules set on the NIC with the mirred redirect
action. Other actions can apply to packets during the redirect.
Hairpin allows to offload the data-path of various SW DDoS gateways,
load-balancers, etc to HW. Packets go through all the required
processing in HW (header re-write, encap/decap, push/pop vlan) and
then forwarded, CPU stays at practically zero usage. HW Flow counters
are used by the control plane for monitoring and accounting.
Hairpin is implemented by pairing a receive queue (RQ) to send queue (SQ).
All the flows that share <recv NIC, mirred NIC> are redirected through
the same hairpin pair. Currently, only header-rewrite is supported as a
packet modification action.
I'd like to thanks Elijah Shakkour <elijahs@mellanox.com> for implementing this
functionality
on HW simulator, before it was avail in the FW so the driver code could be
tested early.
===========================================================
From Feras three patches that provide very small changes that allow IPoIB
to support RX timestamping for child interfaces, simply by hooking the mlx5e
timestamping PTP ioctl to IPoIB child interface netdev profile.

This function is used from two places: rtnl_dump_ifinfo and
rtnl_getlink. In rtnl_getlink(), we give a request skb into
get_target_net(), but in rtnl_dump_ifinfo, we give a response skb
into get_target_net().
The problem here is that NETLINK_CB() isn't initialized for the response
skb. In both cases we can get a user socket and give it instead of skb
into get_target_net().

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2017-12-03
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Addition of a software model for BPF offloads in order to ease
testing code changes in that area and make semantics more clear.
This is implemented in a new driver called netdevsim, which can
later also be extended for other offloads. SR-IOV support is added
as well to netdevsim. BPF kernel selftests for offloading are
added so we can track basic functionality as well as exercising
all corner cases around BPF offloading, from Jakub.
2) Today drivers have to drop the reference on BPF progs they hold
due to XDP on device teardown themselves. Change this in order
to make XDP handling inside the drivers less error prone, and
move disabling XDP to the core instead, also from Jakub.
3) Misc set of BPF verifier improvements and cleanups as preparatory
work for upcoming BPF-to-BPF calls. Among others, this set also
improves liveness marking such that pruning can be slightly more
effective. Register and stack liveness information is now included
in the verifier log as well, from Alexei.
4) nfp JIT improvements in order to identify load/store sequences in
the BPF prog e.g. coming from memcpy lowering and optimizing them
through the NPU's command push pull (CPP) instruction, from Jiong.
5) Cleanups to test_cgrp2_attach2.c BPF sample code in oder to remove
bpf_prog_attach() magic values and replacing them with actual proper
attach flag instead, from David.

rtnetlink is littered with READ_ONCE() because we can have read accesses
while another cpu can write to the structure we're reading by

This patch changes this so that (un)registering cpu allocates a new
structure and then publishes it via rcu_assign_pointer, i.e. once
another cpu can see such pointer no modifications will occur anymore.

Currently, when an application gets netnsid from the kernel (for example as
the result of RTM_GETLINK call on one end of the veth pair), it's not much
useful. There's no reliable way to get to the netns fd from the netnsid, nor
does any kernel API accept netnsid.
Extend the RTM_GETLINK call to also accept netnsid. It will operate on the
netns with the given netnsid in such case. Of course, the calling process
needs to have enough capabilities in the target name space; for now, require
CAP_NET_ADMIN. This can be relaxed in the future.
To signal to the calling process that the kernel understood the new
IFLA_IF_NETNSID attribute in the query, it will include it in the response.
This is needed to detect older kernels, as they will just ignore
IFLA_IF_NETNSID and query in the current name space.
This patch implemetns IFLA_IF_NETNSID only for get and dump. For set
operations, this can be extended later.

There were quite a few overlapping sets of changes here.
Daniel's bug fix for off-by-ones in the new BPF branch instructions,
along with the added allowances for "data_end > ptr + x" forms
collided with the metadata additions.
Along with those three changes came veritifer test cases, which in
their final form I tried to group together properly. If I had just
trimmed GIT's conflict tags as-is, this would have split up the
meta tests unnecessarily.
In the socketmap code, a set of preemption disabling changes
overlapped with the rename of bpf_compute_data_end() to
bpf_compute_data_pointers().
Changes were made to the mv88e6060.c driver set addr method
which got removed in net-next.

which overlapped with a change of socket state macro usage
in 'net-next'.

IFLA_IFALIAS is defined as NLA_STRING. It means that the minimal length of
the attribute is 1 ("\0"). However, to remove an alias, the attribute
length must be 0 (see dev_set_alias()).
Let's define the type to NLA_BINARY to allow 0-length string, so that the
alias can be removed.
Example:
$ ip l s dummy0 alias foo
$ ip l l dev dummy0

libteam needs this event notification in userspace when dev's master
dev has been changed. After this, the redundant notifications issue
would be fixed in the later patch 'rtnetlink: check DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY
correctly in do_setlink'.

As I said in patch 'rtnetlink: bring NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event process back
in rtnetlink_event', removing NETDEV_POST_TYPE_CHANGE event was not the
right fix for the redundant notifications issue.
So bring this event process back to rtnetlink_event and the old redundant
notifications issue would be fixed in the later patch 'rtnetlink: check
DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY correctly in do_setlink'.

The same fix for changing mtu in the patch 'rtnetlink: bring
NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event process back in rtnetlink_event' is
needed for changing tx_queue_len.
Note that the redundant notifications issue for tx_queue_len
will be fixed in the later patch 'rtnetlink: do not send
notification for tx_queue_len in do_setlink'.

Commit 085e1a65f0 ("rtnetlink: Do not generate notifications for MTU
events") tried to fix the redundant notifications issue when ip link
set mtu by removing NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event process in rtnetlink_event.
But it also resulted in no notification generated when dev's mtu is
changed via other methods, like:
'ifconfig eth1 mtu 1400' or 'echo 1400 > /sys/class/net/eth1/mtu'
It would cause users not to be notified by this change.
This patch is to fix it by bringing NETDEV_CHANGEMTU event back into
rtnetlink_event, and the redundant notifications issue will be fixed
in the later patch 'rtnetlink: check DO_SETLINK_NOTIFY correctly in
do_setlink'.

We can now piggyback error strings to userspace via extended acks
rather than using printk.
Before:
bridge fdb add 01:02:03:04:05:06 dev br0 vlan 4095
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
After:
bridge fdb add 01:02:03:04:05:06 dev br0 vlan 4095
Error: invalid vlan id.
v3: drop 'RTM_' prefixes, suggested by David Ahern, they
are not useful, the add/del in bridge command line is enough.
Also reword error in response to malformed/bad vlan id attribute
size.

x-netns interfaces are bound to two netns: the link netns and the upper
netns. Usually, this kind of interfaces is created in the link netns and
then moved to the upper netns. At the end, the interface is visible only
in the upper netns. The link nsid is advertised via netlink in the upper
netns, thus the user always knows where is the link part.
There is no such mechanism in the link netns. When the interface is moved
to another netns, the user cannot "follow" it.
This patch adds a new netlink attribute which helps to follow an interface
which moves to another netns. When the interface is unregistered, the new
nsid is advertised. If the interface is a x-netns interface (ie
rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net is defined), the nsid is allocated if needed.

Device alias can be set by either rtnetlink (rtnl is held) or sysfs.
rtnetlink hold the rtnl mutex, sysfs acquires it for this purpose.
Add an extra mutex for it and use rcu to protect concurrent accesses.
This allows the sysfs path to not take rtnl and would later allow
to not hold it when dumping ifalias.
Based on suggestion from Eric Dumazet.

When RTM_GETSTATS was added the fields of its header struct were not all
initialized when returning the result thus leaking 4 bytes of information
to user-space per rtnl_fill_statsinfo call, so initialize them now. Thanks
to Alexander Potapenko for the detailed report and bisection.

similar to earlier patches, split out more parts of this function to
better see what is happening and where we assume rtnl is locked.

rtnl_fill_ifinfo currently requires caller to hold the rtnl mutex.
Unfortunately the function is quite large which makes it harder to see
which spots require the lock, which spots assume it and which ones could
do without.
Add helpers to factor out the ifindex dumping, one can use rcu to avoid
rtnl dependency.
