A footnote should contain either a number, a reference or

While using [*] accidentaly works for html, it fails for other
document outputs. In particular, it causes an error with LaTeX

fd129f8941 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next
Daniel Borkmann says:

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2018-06-05

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Add a new BPF hook for sendmsg similar to existing hooks for bind and
   connect: "This allows to override source IP (including the case when it's
   set via cmsg(3)) and destination IP:port for unconnected UDP (slow path).
   TCP and connected UDP (fast path) are not affected. This makes UDP support
   complete, that is, connected UDP is handled by connect hooks, unconnected
   by sendmsg ones.", from Andrey.

2) Rework of the AF_XDP API to allow extending it in future for type writer
   model if necessary. In this mode a memory window is passed to hardware
   and multiple frames might be filled into that window instead of just one
   that is the case in the current fixed frame-size model. With the new
   changes made this can be supported without having to add a new descriptor
   format. Also, core bits for the zero-copy support for AF_XDP have been
   merged as agreed upon, where i40e bits will be routed via Jeff later on.
   Various improvements to documentation and sample programs included as
   well, all from Björn and Magnus.

3) Given BPF's flexibility, a new program type has been added to implement
   infrared decoders. Quote: "The kernel IR decoders support the most
   widely used IR protocols, but there are many protocols which are not
   supported. [...] There is a 'long tail' of unsupported IR protocols,
   for which lircd is need to decode the IR. IR encoding is done in such
   a way that some simple circuit can decode it; therefore, BPF is ideal.
   [...] user-space can define a decoder in BPF, attach it to the rc
   device through the lirc chardev.", from Sean.

4) Several improvements and fixes to BPF core, among others, dumping map
   and prog IDs into fdinfo which is a straight forward way to correlate
   BPF objects used by applications, removing an indirect call and therefore
   retpoline in all map lookup/update/delete calls by invoking the callback
   directly for 64 bit archs, adding a new bpf_skb_cgroup_id() BPF helper
   for tc BPF programs to have an efficient way of looking up cgroup v2 id
   for policy or other use cases. Fixes to make sure we zero tunnel/xfrm
   state that hasn't been filled, to allow context access wrt pt_regs in
   32 bit archs for tracing, and last but not least various test cases
   for fixes that landed in bpf earlier, from Daniel.

5) Get rid of the ndo_xdp_flush API and extend the ndo_xdp_xmit with
   a XDP_XMIT_FLUSH flag instead which allows to avoid one indirect
   call as flushing is now merged directly into ndo_xdp_xmit(), from Jesper.

6) Add a new bpf_get_current_cgroup_id() helper that can be used in
   tracing to retrieve the cgroup id from the current process in order
   to allow for e.g. aggregation of container-level events, from Yonghong.

7) Two follow-up fixes for BTF to reject invalid input values and
   related to that also two test cases for BPF kselftests, from Martin.

8) Various API improvements to the bpf_fib_lookup() helper, that is,
   dropping MPLS bits which are not fully hashed out yet, rejecting
   invalid helper flags, returning error for unsupported address
   families as well as renaming flowlabel to flowinfo, from David.

9) Various fixes and improvements to sockmap BPF kselftests in particular
   in proper error detection and data verification, from Prashant.

10) Two arm32 BPF JIT improvements. One is to fix imm range check with
    regards to whether immediate fits into 24 bits, and a naming cleanup
    to get functions related to rsh handling consistent to those handling
    lsh, from Wang.

11) Two compile warning fixes in BPF, one for BTF and a false positive
    to silent gcc in stack_map_get_build_id_offset(), from Arnd.

12) Add missing seg6.h header into tools include infrastructure in order
    to fix compilation of BPF kselftests, from Mathieu.

13) Several formatting cleanups in the BPF UAPI helper description that
    also fix an error during rst2man compilation, from Quentin.

14) Hide an unused variable in sk_msg_convert_ctx_access() when IPv6 is
    not built into the kernel, from Yue.

15) Remove a useless double assignment in dev_map_enqueue(), from Colin.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-06-04

This series contains a smorgasbord of updates to documentation, e1000e,
igb, ixgbe, ixgbevf and i40e.

Benjamin Poirier fixes a potential kernel crash due to NULL pointer
dereference in e1000e.

Jeff updates the kernel documentation for e100 and e1000 to correct
default values and URLs which were incorrect in the documentation.  Also
took the time to update these to the new reStructured text format for
kernel documentation.

Joanna Yurdal fixes a missing PTP transmit timestamp by ensuring that
TSICR gets cleared when ICR is cleared.

Sergey updates igb to reset all the transmit queues at one time so that
we only have to wait once for all the queues to be reset.

Alex fixes ixgbevf so that malicious driver detection (MDD) can co-exist
with XDP.

Emil and Tony extend the RTNL lock to ensure we get the most up-to-date
values for the bits and avoid a possible race condition when going down.

YueHaibing from Huawei introduces a helper function in ixgbe for
operation reads to simplify the code a bit more.

Daniel Borkmann adds support for XDP meta data when using build SKB
for i40e.

Shannon Nelson provides twp fixes for the IPSec code in ixgbe, first is
to make sure we do not try to offload the decryption of any incoming
packet that is destined for the management engine.  The other fix is to
resolve a cast problem introduced by a sparse cleanup patch.

79e9fed460 net-tcp: extend tcp_tw_reuse sysctl to enable loopback only optimization
This changes the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_tw_reuse from a boolean
to an integer.

It now takes the values 0, 1 and 2, where 0 and 1 behave as before,
while 2 enables timewait socket reuse only for sockets that we can
prove are loopback connections:
  ie. bound to 'lo' interface or where one of source or destination
  IPs is 127.0.0.0/8, ::ffff:127.0.0.0/104 or ::1.

This enables quicker reuse of ephemeral ports for loopback connections
- where tcp_tw_reuse is 100% safe from a protocol perspective
(this assumes no artificially induced packet loss on 'lo').

This also makes estblishing many loopback connections *much* faster
(allocating ports out of the first half of the ephemeral port range
is significantly faster, then allocating from the second half)

Without this change in a 32K ephemeral port space my sample program
(it just establishes and closes [::1]:ephemeral -> [::1]:server_port
connections in a tight loop) fails after 32765 connections in 24 seconds.
With it enabled 50000 connections only take 4.7 seconds.

This is particularly problematic for IPv6 where we only have one local
address and cannot play tricks with varying source IP from 127.0.0.0/8
pool.

bbff2f321a xsk: new descriptor addressing scheme
Currently, AF_XDP only supports a fixed frame-size memory scheme where
each frame is referenced via an index (idx). A user passes the frame
index to the kernel, and the kernel acts upon the data.  Some NICs,
however, do not have a fixed frame-size model, instead they have a
model where a memory window is passed to the hardware and multiple
frames are filled into that window (referred to as the "type-writer"
model).

By changing the descriptor format from the current frame index
addressing scheme, AF_XDP can in the future be extended to support
these kinds of NICs.

In the index-based model, an idx refers to a frame of size
frame_size. Addressing a frame in the UMEM is done by offseting the
UMEM starting address by a global offset, idx * frame_size + offset.
Communicating via the fill- and completion-rings are done by means of
idx.

In this commit, the idx is removed in favor of an address (addr),
which is a relative address ranging over the UMEM. To convert an
idx-based address to the new addr is simply: addr = idx * frame_size +
offset.

We also stop referring to the UMEM "frame" as a frame. Instead it is
simply called a chunk.

To transfer ownership of a chunk to the kernel, the addr of the chunk
is passed in the fill-ring. Note, that the kernel will mask addr to
make it chunk aligned, so there is no need for userspace to do
that. E.g., for a chunk size of 2k, passing an addr of 2048, 2050 or
3000 to the fill-ring will refer to the same chunk.

On the completion-ring, the addr will match that of the Tx descriptor,
passed to the kernel.

Changing the descriptor format to use chunks/addr will allow for
future changes to move to a type-writer based model, where multiple
frames can reside in one chunk. In this model passing one single chunk
into the fill-ring, would potentially result in multiple Rx
descriptors.

This commit changes the uapi of AF_XDP sockets, and updates the
documentation.

ba5e4426e8 virtio_net: Extend virtio to use VF datapath when available
This patch enables virtio_net to switch over to a VF datapath when STANDBY
feature is enabled and a VF netdev is present with the same MAC address.
It allows live migration of a VM with a direct attached VF without the need
to setup a bond/team between a VF and virtio net device in the guest.

It uses the API that is exported by the net_failover driver to create and
and destroy a master failover netdev. When STANDBY feature is enabled, an
additional netdev(failover netdev) is created that acts as a master device
and tracks the state of the 2 lower netdevs. The original virtio_net netdev
is marked as 'standby' netdev and a passthru device with the same MAC is
registered as 'primary' netdev.

The hypervisor needs to unplug the VF device from the guest on the source
host and reset the MAC filter of the VF to initiate failover of datapath
to virtio before starting the migration. After the migration is completed,
the destination hypervisor sets the MAC filter on the VF and plugs it back
to the guest to switch over to VF datapath.

This patch is based on the discussion initiated by Jesse on this thread.

cfc80d9a11 net: Introduce net_failover driver
The net_failover driver provides an automated failover mechanism via APIs
to create and destroy a failover master netdev and manages a primary and
standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover
infrastructure.

The failover netdev acts a master device and controls 2 slave devices. The
original paravirtual interface gets registered as 'standby' slave netdev and
a passthru/vf device with the same MAC gets registered as 'primary' slave
netdev. Both 'standby' and 'failover' netdevs are associated with the same
'pci' device. The user accesses the network interface via 'failover' netdev.
The 'failover' netdev chooses 'primary' netdev as default for transmits when
it is available with link up and running.

This can be used by paravirtual drivers to enable an alternate low latency
datapath. It also enables hypervisor controlled live migration of a VM with
direct attached VF by failing over to the paravirtual datapath when the VF
is unplugged.

30c8bd5aa8 net: Introduce generic failover module
The failover module provides a generic interface for paravirtual drivers
to register a netdev and a set of ops with a failover instance. The ops
are used as event handlers that get called to handle netdev register/
unregister/link change/name change events on slave pci ethernet devices
with the same mac address as the failover netdev.

This enables paravirtual drivers to use a VF as an accelerated low latency
datapath. It also allows migration of VMs with direct attached VFs by
failing over to the paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged.

af8d3c7c00 ppp: remove the PPPIOCDETACH ioctl
The PPPIOCDETACH ioctl effectively tries to "close" the given ppp file
before f_count has reached 0, which is fundamentally a bad idea.  It
does check 'f_count < 2', which excludes concurrent operations on the
file since they would only be possible with a shared fd table, in which
case each fdget() would take a file reference.  However, it fails to
account for the fact that even with 'f_count == 1' the file can still be
linked into epoll instances.  As reported by syzbot, this can trivially
be used to cause a use-after-free.

Yet, the only known user of PPPIOCDETACH is pppd versions older than
ppp-2.4.2, which was released almost 15 years ago (November 2003).
Also, PPPIOCDETACH apparently stopped working reliably at around the
same time, when the f_count check was added to the kernel, e.g. see
https://lkml.org/lkml/2002/12/31/83.  Also, the current 'f_count < 2'
check makes PPPIOCDETACH only work in single-threaded applications; it
always fails if called from a multithreaded application.

All pppd versions released in the last 15 years just close() the file
descriptor instead.

Therefore, instead of hacking around this bug by exporting epoll
internals to modules, and probably missing other related bugs, just
remove the PPPIOCDETACH ioctl and see if anyone actually notices.  Leave
a stub in place that prints a one-time warning and returns EINVAL.

20b654dfe1 tcp: support DUPACK threshold in RACK
This patch adds support for the classic DUPACK threshold rule
(#DupThresh) in RACK.

When the number of packets SACKed is greater or equal to the
threshold, RACK sets the reordering window to zero which would
immediately mark all the unsacked packets below the highest SACKed
sequence lost. Since this approach is known to not work well with
reordering, RACK only uses it if no reordering has been observed.

The DUPACK threshold rule is a particularly useful extension to the
fast recoveries triggered by RACK reordering timer. For example
data-center transfers where the RTT is much smaller than a timer
tick, or high RTT path where the default RTT/4 may take too long.

Note that this patch differs slightly from RFC6675. RFC6675
considers a packet lost when at least #DupThresh higher-sequence
packets are SACKed.

With RACK, for connections that have seen reordering, RACK
continues to use a dynamically-adaptive time-based reordering
window to detect losses. But for connections on which we have not
yet seen reordering, this patch considers a packet lost when at
least one higher sequence packet is SACKed and the total number
of SACKed packets is at least DupThresh. For example, suppose a
connection has not seen reordering, and sends 10 packets, and
packets 3, 5, 7 are SACKed. RFC6675 considers packets 1 and 2
lost. RACK considers packets 1, 2, 4, 6 lost.

There is some small risk of spurious retransmits here due to
reordering. However, this is mostly limited to the first flight of
a connection on which the sender receives SACKs from reordering.
And RFC 6675 and FACK loss detection have a similar risk on the
first flight with reordering (it's just that the risk of spurious
retransmits from reordering was slightly narrower for those older
algorithms due to the margin of 3*MSS).

Also the minimum reordering window is reduced from 1 msec to 0
to recover quicker on short RTT transfers. Therefore RACK is more
aggressive in marking packets lost during recovery to reduce the
reordering window timeouts.

Daniel Borkmann says:

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2018-05-17

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Provide a new BPF helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup
   in the kernel tables from an XDP or tc BPF program. The helper
   provides a fast-path for forwarding packets. The API supports
   IPv4, IPv6 and MPLS protocols, but currently IPv4 and IPv6 are
   implemented in this initial work, from David (Ahern).

2) Just a tiny diff but huge feature enabled for nfp driver by
   extending the BPF offload beyond a pure host processing offload.
   Offloaded XDP programs are allowed to set the RX queue index and
   thus opening the door for defining a fully programmable RSS/n-tuple
   filter replacement. Once BPF decided on a queue already, the device
   data-path will skip the conventional RSS processing completely,
   from Jakub.

3) The original sockmap implementation was array based similar to
   devmap. However unlike devmap where an ifindex has a 1:1 mapping
   into the map there are use cases with sockets that need to be
   referenced using longer keys. Hence, sockhash map is added reusing
   as much of the sockmap code as possible, from John.

4) Introduce BTF ID. The ID is allocatd through an IDR similar as
   with BPF maps and progs. It also makes BTF accessible to user
   space via BPF_BTF_GET_FD_BY_ID and adds exposure of the BTF data
   through BPF_OBJ_GET_INFO_BY_FD, from Martin.

5) Enable BPF stackmap with build_id also in NMI context. Due to the
   up_read() of current->mm->mmap_sem build_id cannot be parsed.
   This work defers the up_read() via a per-cpu irq_work so that
   at least limited support can be enabled, from Song.

6) Various BPF JIT follow-up cleanups and fixups after the LD_ABS/LD_IND
   JIT conversion as well as implementation of an optimized 32/64 bit
   immediate load in the arm64 JIT that allows to reduce the number of
   emitted instructions; in case of tested real-world programs they
   were shrinking by three percent, from Daniel.

7) Add ifindex parameter to the libbpf loader in order to enable
   BPF offload support. Right now only iproute2 can load offloaded
   BPF and this will also enable libbpf for direct integration into
   other applications, from David (Beckett).

8) Convert the plain text documentation under Documentation/bpf/ into
   RST format since this is the appropriate standard the kernel is
   moving to for all documentation. Also add an overview README.rst,
   from Jesper.

9) Add __printf verification attribute to the bpf_verifier_vlog()
   helper. Though it uses va_list we can still allow gcc to check
   the format string, from Mathieu.

10) Fix a bash reference in the BPF selftest's Makefile. The '|& ...'
    is a bash 4.0+ feature which is not guaranteed to be available
    when calling out to shell, therefore use a more portable variant,
    from Joe.

11) Fix a 64 bit division in xdp_umem_reg() by using div_u64()
    instead of relying on the gcc built-in, from Björn.

12) Fix a sock hashmap kmalloc warning reported by syzbot when an
    overly large key size is used in hashmap then causing overflows
    in htab->elem_size. Reject bogus attr->key_size early in the
    sock_hash_alloc(), from Yonghong.

13) Ensure in BPF selftests when urandom_read is being linked that
    --build-id is always enabled so that test_stacktrace_build_id[_nmi]
    won't be failing, from Alexei.

14) Add bitsperlong.h as well as errno.h uapi headers into the tools
    header infrastructure which point to one of the arch specific
    uapi headers. This was needed in order to fix a build error on
    some systems for the BPF selftests, from Sirio.

15) Allow for short options to be used in the xdp_monitor BPF sample
    code. And also a bpf.h tools uapi header sync in order to fix a
    selftest build failure. Both from Prashant.

16) More formally clarify the meaning of ID in the direct packet access
    section of the BPF documentation, from Wang.

df34df483a Staging/IIO patches for 4.17-rc1
Here is the big set of Staging/IIO driver patches for 4.17-rc1.
 
 It is a lot, over 500 changes, but not huge by previous kernel release
 standards.  We deleted more lines than we added again (27k added vs. 91k
 remvoed), thanks to finally being able to delete the IRDA drivers and
 networking code.
 
 We also deleted the ccree crypto driver, but that's coming back in
 through the crypto tree to you, in a much cleaned-up form.
 
 Added this round is at lot of "mt7621" device support, which is for an
 embedded device that Neil Brown cares about, and of course a handful of
 new IIO drivers as well.
 
 And finally, the fsl-mc core code moved out of the staging tree to the
 "real" part of the kernel, which is nice to see happen as well.
 
 Full details are in the shortlog, which has all of the tiny cleanup
 patches described.
 
 All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported

3e67f106f6 inet: frags: break the 2GB limit for frags storage
Some users are willing to provision huge amounts of memory to be able
to perform reassembly reasonnably well under pressure.

Current memory tracking is using one atomic_t and integers.

Switch to atomic_long_t so that 64bit arches can use more than 2GB,
without any cost for 32bit arches.

Note that this patch avoids an overflow error, if high_thresh was set
to ~2GB, since this test in inet_frag_alloc() was never true :

if (... || frag_mem_limit(nf) > nf->high_thresh)

Tested:

$ echo 16000000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_high_thresh

<frag DDOS>

648700f76b inet: frags: use rhashtables for reassembly units
Some applications still rely on IP fragmentation, and to be fair linux
reassembly unit is not working under any serious load.

It uses static hash tables of 1024 buckets, and up to 128 items per bucket (!!!)

A work queue is supposed to garbage collect items when host is under memory
pressure, and doing a hash rebuild, changing seed used in hash computations.

This work queue blocks softirqs for up to 25 ms when doing a hash rebuild,
occurring every 5 seconds if host is under fire.

Then there is the problem of sharing this hash table for all netns.

It is time to switch to rhashtables, and allocate one of them per netns
to speedup netns dismantle, since this is a critical metric these days.

Lookup is now using RCU. A followup patch will even remove
the refcount hold/release left from prior implementation and save
a couple of atomic operations.

Before this patch, 16 cpus (16 RX queue NIC) could not handle more
than 1 Mpps frags DDOS.

After the patch, I reach 9 Mpps without any tuning, and can use up to 2GB
of storage for the fragments (exact number depends on frags being evicted
after timeout)

$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 1966916 memory 2140004608

A followup patch will change the limits for 64bit arches.

Clarify that when disable_ipv6 is enabled even the ipv6 routes
are deleted for the selected interface and from now it will not
be possible to add addresses/routes to that interface

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next
tree. This batch comes with more input sanitization for xtables to
address bug reports from fuzzers, preparation works to the flowtable
infrastructure and assorted updates. In no particular order, they are:

1) Make sure userspace provides a valid standard target verdict, from
   Florian Westphal.

2) Sanitize error target size, also from Florian.

3) Validate that last rule in basechain matches underflow/policy since
   userspace assumes this when decoding the ruleset blob that comes
   from the kernel, from Florian.

4) Consolidate hook entry checks through xt_check_table_hooks(),
   patch from Florian.

5) Cap ruleset allocations at 512 mbytes, 134217728 rules and reject
   very large compat offset arrays, so we have a reasonable upper limit
   and fuzzers don't exercise the oom-killer. Patches from Florian.

6) Several WARN_ON checks on xtables mutex helper, from Florian.

7) xt_rateest now has a hashtable per net, from Cong Wang.

8) Consolidate counter allocation in xt_counters_alloc(), from Florian.

9) Earlier xt_table_unlock() call in {ip,ip6,arp,eb}tables, patch
   from Xin Long.

10) Set FLOW_OFFLOAD_DIR_* to IP_CT_DIR_* definitions, patch from
    Felix Fietkau.

11) Consolidate code through flow_offload_fill_dir(), also from Felix.

12) Inline ip6_dst_mtu_forward() just like ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward()
    to remove a dependency with flowtable and ipv6.ko, from Felix.

13) Cache mtu size in flow_offload_tuple object, this is safe for
    forwarding as f87c10a8aa describes, from Felix.

14) Rename nf_flow_table.c to nf_flow_table_core.o, to simplify too
    modular infrastructure, from Felix.

15) Add rt0, rt2 and rt4 IPv6 routing extension support, patch from
    Ahmed Abdelsalam.

16) Remove unused parameter in nf_conncount_count(), from Yi-Hung Wei.

17) Support for counting only to nf_conncount infrastructure, patch
    from Yi-Hung Wei.

18) Add strict NFT_CT_{SRC_IP,DST_IP,SRC_IP6,DST_IP6} key datatypes
    to nft_ct.

19) Use boolean as return value from ipt_ah and from IPVS too, patch
    from Gustavo A. R. Silva.

20) Remove useless parameters in nfnl_acct_overquota() and
    nf_conntrack_broadcast_help(), from Taehee Yoo.

21) Use ipv6_addr_is_multicast() from xt_cluster, also from Taehee Yoo.

22) Statify nf_tables_obj_lookup_byhandle, patch from Fengguang Wu.

23) Fix typo in xt_limit, from Geert Uytterhoeven.

24) Do no use VLAs in Netfilter code, again from Gustavo.

25) Use ADD_COUNTER from ebtables, from Taehee Yoo.

26) Bitshift support for CONNMARK and MARK targets, from Jack Ma.

27) Use pr_*() and add pr_fmt(), from Arushi Singhal.

28) Add synproxy support to ctnetlink.

29) ICMP type and IGMP matching support for ebtables, patches from
    Matthias Schiffer.

30) Support for the revision infrastructure to ebtables, from
    Bernie Harris.

31) String match support for ebtables, also from Bernie.

32) Documentation for the new flowtable infrastructure.

33) Use generic comparison functions in ebt_stp, from Joe Perches.

34) Demodularize filter chains in nftables.

35) Register conntrack hooks in case nftables NAT chain is added.

36) Merge assignments with return in a couple of spots in the
    Netfilter codebase, also from Arushi.

37) Document that xtables percpu counters are stored in the same
    memory area, from Ben Hutchings.

38) Revert mark_source_chains() sanity checks that break existing
    rulesets, from Florian Westphal.

39) Use is_zero_ether_addr() in the ipset codebase, from Joe Perches.
