This set adds native eBPF support also to act_bpf and thus covers tc
with eBPF in the classifier *and* action part.
A link to iproute2 preview has been provided in patch 2 and the code
will be pushed out after Stephen has processed the classifier part
and helper bits for tc.
This set depends on ced585c83b ("act_bpf: allow non-default TC_ACT

This work extends the "classic" BPF programmable tc action by extending
its scope also to native eBPF code!
Together with commit e2e9b6541d ("cls_bpf: add initial eBPF support
for programmable classifiers") this adds the facility to implement fully
flexible classifier and actions for tc that can be implemented in a C
subset in user space, "safely" loaded into the kernel, and being run in
native speed when JITed.
Also, since eBPF maps can be shared between eBPF programs, it offers the
possibility that cls_bpf and act_bpf can share data 1) between themselves
and 2) between user space applications. That means that, f.e. customized
runtime statistics can be collected in user space, but also more importantly
classifier and action behaviour could be altered based on map input from
the user space application.
For the remaining details on the workflow and integration, see the cls_bpf
commit e2e9b6541d. Preliminary iproute2 part can be found under [1].

In order to prepare eBPF support for tc action, we need to add
sched_act_type, so that the eBPF verifier is aware of what helper
function act_bpf may use, that it can load skb data and read out
currently available skb fields.
This is bascially analogous to 96be4325f4 ("ebpf: add sched_cls_type
and map it to sk_filter's verifier ops").
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_ACT need to be
separate since both will have a different set of functionality in
future (classifier vs action), thus we won't run into ABI troubles
when the point in time comes to diverge functionality from the
classifier.
The future plan for act_bpf would be that it will be able to write
into skb->data and alter selected fields mirrored in struct __sk_buff.
For an initial support, it's sufficient to map it to sk_filter_ops.

The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky. The conflict

split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual

be_map_pci_bars().
So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top

If ->run() fails, it can either free the data structures it
allocated, or leave that task to ->free() which will be called
on failures.
However:
md.c calls ->free() even if ->private_data is NULL, which
causes problems in some personalities.
raid0.c frees the data, but doesn't clear ->private_data,
which will become a problem when we fix md.c
So better fix both these issues at once.

- Use the phy_driver flags field for setting the transceiver type
instead of hardcoding it in the ethtool support.
- Provide an auto-negotiation timeout check
- Clarify the Tx/Rx queue information messages
- Use the new DMA memory barrier operations

The Rx coalescing value is internally converted from usecs to a value

internal value is converted back to usecs. During the conversion from

The Tx coalescing support in the driver was a software implementation
for something lacking in the hardware. Using hrtimers, the idea was to
trigger a timer interrupt after having queued a packet for transmit.
Unfortunately, as the timer value was lowered, the timer expired before
the hardware actually did the transmit and so it was racey and resulted
in unnecessary interrupts.
Remove the Tx coalescing support and hrtimer and replace with a Tx timer
that is used as a reclaim timer in case of inactivity.

Commit db31c55a6f (net: clamp ->msg_namelen instead of returning an

was larger than sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage). This caused a
msg_namelen of -1 to be valid. The native code was subsequently fixed by
commit dbb490b965 (net: socket: error on a negative msg_namelen).
In addition, the native code sets msg_namelen to 0 when msg_name is
NULL. This was done in commit (6a2a2b3ae0 net:socket: set msg_namelen
to 0 if msg_name is passed as NULL in msghdr struct from userland) and

====================
rhashtable: Introduce inlined interface
This series of patches introduces the inlined rhashtable interface.
The idea is to make all the function pointers visible to the compiler
by providing the rhashtable_params structure explicitly to each
inline rhashtable function. For example, instead of doing
obj = rhashtable_lookup(ht, key);
you would now do
obj = rhashtable_lookup_fast(ht, key, params);
Where params is the same data that you would give to rhashtable_init.
In particular, within rhashtable.c itself we would simply supply
ht->p.
So to convert users over, you simply have to make params globally
accessible, e.g., by placing it in a static const variable, which
can then be used at each inlined call site, as well as by the
rhashtable_init call.
The only ticky bit is that some users (i.e., netfilter) has a
dynamic key length. This is dealt with by using params.key_len
in the inline functions when it is non-zero, and otherwise falling
back on ht->p.key_len.
Note that I've only tested this on one compiler, gcc 4.7.2. So
please test this with your compilers as well and make sure that
the code is actually inlined without indirect function calls.

Currently the name space is a de facto key because it has to match
before we find an object in the hash table. However, it isn't in
the hash value so all objects from different name spaces with the
same port ID hash to the same bucket.
This is bad as the number of name spaces is unbounded.
This patch fixes this by using the namespace when doing the hash.
Because the namespace field doesn't lie next to the portid field
in the netlink socket, this patch switches over to the rhashtable
interface without a fixed key.
This patch also uses the new inlined rhashtable interface where
possible.

This patch deals with the complaint that we make indirect function
calls on the fast paths unnecessarily in rhashtable. We resolve
it by moving the fast paths into inline functions that take struct
rhashtable_param (which obviously must be the same set of parameters
supplied to rhashtable_init) as an argument.
The only remaining indirect call is to obj_hashfn (or key_hashfn it
obj_hashfn is unset) on the rehash as well as the insert-during-
rehash slow path.
This patch also extends the support of vairable-length keys to
include those where the key is fixed but scattered in the object.
For example, in netlink we want to key off the namespace and the
portid but they're not next to each other.
This patch does this by directly using the object hash function
as the indicator of whether the key is accessible or not. It
also adds a new function obj_cmpfn to compare a key against an
object. This means that the caller no longer needs to supply
explicit compare functions.
All this is done in a backwards compatible manner so no existing
users are affected until they convert to the new interface.

Commit c249739579 ("bpf: allow BPF programs access 'protocol' and 'vlan_tci'

into the skb offset map.
As referenced in the below discussion, accessing skb->protocol from an eBPF
program should be converted without handling endianess.
The reason for this is that an eBPF program could simply do a check more
naturally, by f.e. testing skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IP), where the LLVM
compiler resolves htons() against a constant automatically during compilation
time, as opposed to an otherwise needed run time conversion.
After all, the way of programming both from a user perspective differs quite
a lot, i.e. bpf_asm ["ld proto"] versus a C subset/LLVM.

Hi David, this patch set includes 3 bug fixes to the be2net driver.
Patch 1 fixes a vlan isolation issue with VFs. When a VF is placed in
promiscous mode, it could receive packets belonging to any vlan, as
the PF driver grants vlan promisc capability to VFs. The PF

problem.
Patch 2 fixes the call to MODIFY_EQ_DELAY FW cmd to not include more
than 8 EQs per cmd. The FW is not capable of handling more than 8 EQs
per cmd.
Patch 3 fixes an EEH error detection issue. On Power platforms,
when an EEH error occurs, the slot disconnect state is more reliably

register reads that occur every second are now done via MMIO.

init_mm isn't a normal mm: it has swapper_pg_dir as its pgd (which

When restoring the pgd after an EFI call, we write current->active_mm
into TTBR0. If the current task is actually the idle thread (e.g. when
initialising the EFI RTC before entering userspace), then the TLB can
erroneously populate itself with junk global entries as a result of
speculative table walks.
When we do eventually return to userspace, the task can end up hitting
these junk mappings leading to lockups, corruption or crashes.
This patch fixes the problem in the same way as the CPU suspend code by
ensuring that we never switch to the init_mm in efi_set_pgd and instead
point TTBR0 at the zero page. A check is also added to cpu_switch_mm to

On a MIPS Malta board, tons of fifo underflow errors have been observed
when using u-boot as bootloader instead of YAMON. The reason for that
is that YAMON used to set the pcnet device to SRAM mode but u-boot does
not. As a result, the default Tx threshold (64 bytes) is now too small to
keep the fifo relatively used and it can result to Tx fifo underflow errors.
As a result of which, it's best to setup the SRAM on supported controllers
so we can always use the NOUFLO bit.

====================
inet: tcp listener refactoring part 14
OK, we have serious patches here.
We get rid of the central timer handling SYNACK rtx,
which is killing us under even medium SYN flood.
We still use the listener specific hash table.
This will be done in next round ;)

sk_ack_backlog & sk_max_ack_backlog were 16bit fields, meaning
listen() backlog was limited to 65535.
It is time to increase the width to allow much bigger backlog,
if admins change /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn &
/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_syn_backlog default values.
Tested:
echo 5000000 >/proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn
echo 5000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_max_syn_backlog
Ran a SYNFLOOD test against a listener using listen(fd, 5000000)
myhost~# grep request_sock_TCP /proc/slabinfo

One of the major issue for TCP is the SYNACK rtx handling,
done by inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune(), fired by the keepalive
timer of a TCP_LISTEN socket.
This function runs for awful long times, with socket lock held,
meaning that other cpus needing this lock have to spin for hundred of ms.
SYNACK are sent in huge bursts, likely to cause severe drops anyway.
This model was OK 15 years ago when memory was very tight.
We now can afford to have a timer per request sock.
Timer invocations no longer need to lock the listener,
and can be run from all cpus in parallel.
With following patch increasing somaxconn width to 32 bits,
I tested a listener with more than 4 million active request sockets,
and a steady SYNFLOOD of ~200,000 SYN per second.
Host was sending ~830,000 SYNACK per second.
This is ~100 times more what we could achieve before this patch.
Later, we will get rid of the listener hash and use ehash instead.

When request sock are put in ehash table, the whole notion
of having a previous request to update dl_next is pointless.
Also, following patch will get rid of big purge timer,
so we want to delete a request sock without holding listener lock.
