34324dc2bf net: remove NETIF_F_NO_CSUM feature bit
Only distinct use is checking if NETIF_F_NOCACHE_COPY should be
enabled by default. The check heuristics is altered a bit here,
so it hits other people than before. The default shouldn't be
trusted for performance-critical cases anyway.

For all other uses NETIF_F_NO_CSUM is equivalent to NETIF_F_HW_CSUM.

02b3a5524f net: ethtool: break association of ETH_FLAG_* with NETIF_F_*
This is the only place left where dev->features are directly

I know checkpatch.pl complains about __ethtool_{get,set}_flags(), but
the code is easier to read this way.

588f033075 net: use jump_label for netstamp_needed
netstamp_needed seems a good candidate to jump_label conversion.

This avoids 3 conditional branches per incoming packet in fast path.

No measurable difference, given that these conditional branches are
predicted on modern cpus. Only a small icache reduction, thanks to the
unlikely() stuff.

b2b5ce9d1c net: introduce build_skb()
One of the thing we discussed during netdev 2011 conference was the idea
to change some network drivers to allocate/populate their skb at RX
completion time, right before feeding the skb to network stack.

In old days, we allocated skbs when populating the RX ring.

This means bringing into cpu cache sk_buff and skb_shared_info cache
lines (since we clear/initialize them), then 'queue' skb->data to NIC.

By the time NIC fills a frame in skb->data buffer and host can process
it, cpu probably threw away the cache lines from its caches, because lot
of things happened between the allocation and final use.

So the deal would be to allocate only the data buffer for the NIC to
populate its RX ring buffer. And use build_skb() at RX completion to
attach a data buffer (now filled with an ethernet frame) to a new skb,
initialize the skb_shared_info portion, and give the hot skb to network
stack.

build_skb() is the function to allocate an skb, caller providing the
data buffer that should be attached to it. Drivers are expected to call
skb_reserve() right after build_skb() to adjust skb->data to the
Ethernet frame (usually skipping NET_SKB_PAD and NET_IP_ALIGN, but some
drivers might add a hardware provided alignment)

Data provided to build_skb() MUST have been allocated by a prior
kmalloc() call, with enough room to add SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct
skb_shared_info)) bytes at the end of the data without corrupting
incoming frame.

data = kmalloc(NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + 1536 +
               SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)),
	       GFP_ATOMIC);
...
skb = build_skb(data);
if (!skb) {
	recycle_data(data);
} else {
	skb_reserve(skb, NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN);
	...
}

Ouch, this was fixed on one machine yesterday, but not the other one I

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits

unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

$ arp -d 192.168.20.108 ; ping -c 2 -s 8000 192.168.20.108
PING 192.168.20.108 (192.168.20.108) 8000(8028) bytes of data.
8008 bytes from 192.168.20.108: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.322 ms

6e3e939f3b net: add wireless TX status socket option
The 802.1X EAPOL handshake hostapd does requires
knowing whether the frame was ack'ed by the peer.
Currently, we fudge this pretty badly by not even
transmitting the frame as a normal data frame but
injecting it with radiotap and getting the status
out of radiotap monitor as well. This is rather
complex, confuses users (mon.wlan0 presence) and
doesn't work with all hardware.

To get rid of that hack, introduce a real wifi TX
status option for data frame transmissions.

This works similar to the existing TX timestamping
in that it reflects the SKB back to the socket's
error queue with a SCM_WIFI_STATUS cmsg that has
an int indicating ACK status (0/1).

Since it is possible that at some point we will
want to have TX timestamping and wifi status in a
single errqueue SKB (there's little point in not
doing that), redefine SO_EE_ORIGIN_TIMESTAMPING
to SO_EE_ORIGIN_TXSTATUS which can collect more
than just the timestamp; keep the old constant
as an alias of course. Currently the internal APIs
don't make that possible, but it wouldn't be hard
to split them up in a way that makes it possible.

Thanks to Neil Horman for helping me figure out
the functions that add the control messages.

This is dubious enough that we should just delete it entirely.  If we

Packet is dropped in arp_rcv() because its pkt_type was set to

We really need to change pkt_type only if no more rx_handler is about to
be called for the packet.

d2237d3574 rtnetlink: Add missing manual netlink notification in dev_change_net_namespaces
Renato Westphal noticed that since commit a2835763e1
"rtnetlink: handle rtnl_link netlink notifications manually" was merged
we no longer send a netlink message when a networking device is moved
from one network namespace to another.

Fix this by adding the missing manual notification in dev_change_net_namespaces.

Since all network devices that are processed by dev_change_net_namspaces are
in the initialized state the complicated tests that guard the manual
rtmsg_ifinfo calls in rollback_registered and register_netdevice are
unnecessary and we can just perform a plain notification.

da92b194cc net: hold sock reference while processing tx timestamps
The pair of functions,

 * skb_clone_tx_timestamp()
 * skb_complete_tx_timestamp()

were designed to allow timestamping in PHY devices. The first
function, called during the MAC driver's hard_xmit method, identifies
PTP protocol packets, clones them, and gives them to the PHY device
driver. The PHY driver may hold onto the packet and deliver it at a
later time using the second function, which adds the packet to the
socket's error queue.

As pointed out by Johannes, nothing prevents the socket from
disappearing while the cloned packet is sitting in the PHY driver
awaiting a timestamp. This patch fixes the issue by taking a reference
on the socket for each such packet. In addition, the comments
regarding the usage of these function are expanded to highlight the
rule that PHY drivers must use skb_complete_tx_timestamp() to release
the packet, in order to release the socket reference, too.

These functions first appeared in v2.6.36.

Adding const qualifiers to pointers can ease code review, and spot some

For example, is it legal to temporary write a null cksum into tcphdr
in tcp_md5_hash_header() ? I am afraid a sniffer could catch the

850a545bd8 net: Move rcu_barrier from rollback_registered_many to netdev_run_todo.
This patch moves the rcu_barrier from rollback_registered_many
(inside the rtnl_lock) into netdev_run_todo (just outside the rtnl_lock).
This allows us to gain the full benefit of sychronize_net calling
synchronize_rcu_expedited when the rtnl_lock is held.

The rcu_barrier in rollback_registered_many was originally a synchronize_net
but was promoted to be a rcu_barrier() when it was found that people were
unnecessarily hitting the 250ms wait in netdev_wait_allrefs().  Changing
the rcu_barrier back to a synchronize_net is therefore safe.

Since we only care about waiting for the rcu callbacks before we get
to netdev_wait_allrefs() it is also safe to move the wait into
netdev_run_todo.

This was tested by creating and destroying 1000 tap devices and observing
/proc/lock_stat.  /proc/lock_stat reports this change reduces the hold
times of the rtnl_lock by a factor of 10.  There was no observable
difference in the amount of time it takes to destroy a network device.

2425717b27 net: allow vlan traffic to be received under bond
The following configuration used to work as I expected. At least
we could use the fcoe interfaces to do MPIO and the bond0 iface
to do load balancing or failover.

       ---eth2.228-fcoe
       |
eth2 -----|
          |
          |---- bond0
          |
eth3 -----|
       |
       ---eth3.228-fcoe

This worked because of a change we added to allow inactive slaves
to rx 'exact' matches. This functionality was kept intact with the
rx_handler mechanism. However now the vlan interface attached to the
active slave never receives traffic because the bonding rx_handler
updates the skb->dev and goto's another_round. Previously, the
vlan_do_receive() logic was called before the bonding rx_handler.

Now by the time vlan_do_receive calls vlan_find_dev() the
skb->dev is set to bond0 and it is clear no vlan is attached
to this iface. The vlan lookup fails.

This patch moves the VLAN check above the rx_handler. A VLAN
tagged frame is now routed to the eth2.228-fcoe iface in the
above schematic. Untagged frames continue to the bond0 as
normal. This case also remains intact,

eth2 --> bond0 --> vlan.228

Here the skb is VLAN tagged but the vlan lookup fails on eth2
causing the bonding rx_handler to be called. On the second
pass the vlan lookup is on the bond0 iface and completes as
expected.

Putting a VLAN.228 on both the bond0 and eth2 device will
result in eth2.228 receiving the skb. I don't think this is
completely unexpected and was the result prior to the rx_handler
result.

Note, the same setup is also used for other storage traffic that
MPIO is used with eg. iSCSI and similar setups can be contrived
without storage protocols.

87fb4b7b53 net: more accurate skb truesize
skb truesize currently accounts for sk_buff struct and part of skb head.
kmalloc() roundings are also ignored.

Considering that skb_shared_info is larger than sk_buff, its time to
take it into account for better memory accounting.

This patch introduces SKB_TRUESIZE(X) macro to centralize various
assumptions into a single place.

At skb alloc phase, we put skb_shared_info struct at the exact end of
skb head, to allow a better use of memory (lowering number of
reallocations), since kmalloc() gives us power-of-two memory blocks.

Unless SLUB/SLUB debug is active, both skb->head and skb_shared_info are
aligned to cache lines, as before.

Note: This patch might trigger performance regressions because of
misconfigured protocol stacks, hitting per socket or global memory
limits that were previously not reached. But its a necessary step for a
more accurate memory accounting.

Since commit 7361c36c52 (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across

This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(),

eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing.

This patch includes SCM_CREDENTIALS information in a af_unix message/skb

ancillary data using sendmsg() system call]

Note: This might break buggy applications that expected SCM_CREDENTIAL
from an unaware write() system call, and receiver not using SO_PASSCRED
socket option.

If SOCK_PASSCRED is set on source or destination socket, we still
include credentials for mere write() syscalls.

4bc71cb983 net: consolidate and fix ethtool_ops->get_settings calling
This patch does several things:
- introduces __ethtool_get_settings which is called from ethtool code and
  from drivers as well. Put ASSERT_RTNL there.
- dev_ethtool_get_settings() is replaced by __ethtool_get_settings()
- changes calling in drivers so rtnl locking is respected. In
  iboe_get_rate was previously ->get_settings() called unlocked. This
  fixes it. Also prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo() in af_packet.c had the same
  problem. Also fixed by calling __dev_get_by_index() instead of
  dev_get_by_index() and holding rtnl_lock for both calls.
- introduces rtnl_lock in bnx2fc_vport_create() and fcoe_vport_create()
  so bnx2fc_if_create() and fcoe_if_create() are called locked as they
  are from other places.
- use __ethtool_get_settings() in bonding code

in HA systems using vlan since the detection of the problem at real
device is delayed.

We can avoid the linkwatch delay (~1 sec) for devices linked to another
ones, since delay is already done for the realdev.

Based on a previous patch from Mitsuo Hayasaka

48c830120f net: copy userspace buffers on device forwarding
dev_forward_skb loops an skb back into host networking
stack which might hang on the memory indefinitely.
In particular, this can happen in macvtap in bridged mode.
Copy the userspace fragments to avoid blocking the
sender in that case.

As this patch makes skb_copy_ubufs extern now,
I also added some documentation and made it clear
the SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY flag automatically instead
of doing it in all callers. This can be made into a separate
patch if people feel it's worth it.

flow_cache_lookup will return a cached object (or null pointer) that the
resolver (i.e. xfrm_policy_lookup) previously found for another namespace
using the same key/family/dir.  Instead, make the namespace part of what
identifies entries in the cache.

As before, flow_entry_valid will return 0 for entries where the namespace
has been deleted, and they will be removed from the cache the next time
flow_cache_gc_task is run.

20e6074eb8 arp: fix rcu lockdep splat in arp_process()
Dave Jones reported a lockdep splat triggered by an arp_process() call
from parp_redo().

Commit faa9dcf793 (arp: RCU changes) is the origin of the bug, since
it assumed arp_process() was called under rcu_read_lock(), which is not
true in this particular path.

Instead of adding rcu_read_lock() in parp_redo(), I chose to add it in
neigh_proxy_process() to take care of IPv6 side too.

 ===================================================

6e5714eaf7 net: Compute protocol sequence numbers and fragment IDs using MD5.
Computers have become a lot faster since we compromised on the
partial MD4 hash which we use currently for performance reasons.

MD5 is a much safer choice, and is inline with both RFC1948 and
other ISS generators (OpenBSD, Solaris, etc.)

Furthermore, only having 24-bits of the sequence number be truly
unpredictable is a very serious limitation.  So the periodic
regeneration and 8-bit counter have been removed.  We compute and
use a full 32-bit sequence number.

For ipv6, DCCP was found to use a 32-bit truncated initial sequence
number (it needs 43-bits) and that is fixed here as well.

d887331506 net: add IFF_SKB_TX_SHARED flag to priv_flags
Pktgen attempts to transmit shared skbs to net devices, which can't be used by
some drivers as they keep state information in skbs.  This patch adds a flag
marking drivers as being able to handle shared skbs in their tx path.  Drivers
are defaulted to being unable to do so, but calling ether_setup enables this
flag, as 90% of the drivers calling ether_setup touch real hardware and can
handle shared skbs.  A subsequent patch will audit drivers to ensure that the
flag is set properly

problem of waiting for running linkwatch_event.

There is a race between linkwatch_event running re-scheduling
but it is harmless to schedule an extra scan of the linkwatch queue.

67ae7cf1ee ethtool: Allow zero-length register dumps again
Some drivers (ab)use the ethtool_ops::get_regs operation to expose
only a hardware revision ID.  Commit
a77f5db361 ('ethtool: Allocate register
dump buffer with vmalloc()') had the side-effect of breaking these, as
vmalloc() returns a null pointer for size=0 whereas kmalloc() did not.

For backward-compatibility, allow zero-length dumps again.

If there is any userspace apps to reference these userspace buffers,
then these userspaces buffers will be copied into kernel. This way we
can prevent userspace apps from holding these userspace buffers too long.

957c665f37 ipv6: Don't put artificial limit on routing table size.
IPV6, unlike IPV4, doesn't have a routing cache.

Routing table entries, as well as clones made in response
to route lookup requests, all live in the same table.  And
all of these things are together collected in the destination
cache table for ipv6.

This means that routing table entries count against the garbage
collection limits, even though such entries cannot ever be reclaimed
and are added explicitly by the administrator (rather than being
created in response to lookups).

Therefore it makes no sense to count ipv6 routing table entries
against the GC limits.

Add a DST_NOCOUNT destination cache entry flag, and skip the counting
if it is set.  Use this flag bit in ipv6 when adding routing table
entries.

4e985adaa5 rtnl: provide link dump consistency info
This patch adds a change sequence counter to each net namespace
which is bumped whenever a netdevice is added or removed from
the list. If such a change occurred while a link dump took place,
the dump will have the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR flag set in the first
message which has been interrupted and in all subsequent messages
of the same dump.

Note that links may still be modified or renamed while a dump is
taking place but we can guarantee for userspace to receive a
complete list of links and not miss any.

Testing:
I have added 500 VLAN netdevices to make sure the dump is split
over multiple messages. Then while continuously dumping links in
one process I also continuously deleted and re-added a dummy
netdevice in another process. Multiple dumps per seconds have
had the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR flag set.

I guess we can wait for Johannes patch to hit net-next via the
wireless tree.  I just wanted to give this some testing right away.

* new refcount in struct net, controlling actual freeing of the memory
	* new method in kobj_ns_type_operations (->drop_ns())
	* ->current_ns() semantics change - it's supposed to be followed by
corresponding ->drop_ns().  For struct net in case of CONFIG_NET_NS it bumps
the new refcount; net_drop_ns() decrements it and calls net_free() if the
last reference has been dropped.  Method renamed to ->grab_current_ns().
	* old net_free() callers call net_drop_ns() instead.
	* sysfs_exit_ns() is gone, along with a large part of callchain
leading to it; now that the references stored in ->ns[...] stay valid we
do not need to hunt them down and replace them with NULL.  That fixes
problems in sysfs_lookup() and sysfs_readdir(), along with getting rid
of sb->s_instances abuse.

	Note that struct net *shutdown* logics has not changed - net_cleanup()
is called exactly when it used to be called.  The only thing postponed by
having a sysfs instance refering to that struct net is actual freeing of
memory occupied by struct net.

0b5c9db1b1 vlan: Fix the ingress VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR check
Testing of VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR does not belong in vlan_untag
but rather in vlan_do_receive.  Otherwise the vlan header
will not be properly put on the packet in the case of
vlan header accelleration.

As we remove the check from vlan_check_reorder_header
rename it vlan_reorder_header to keep the naming clean.

Fix up the skb->pkt_type early so we don't look at the packet
after adding the vlan tag, which guarantees we don't goof
and look at the wrong field.

Use a simple if statement instead of a complicated switch
statement to decided that we need to increment rx_stats
for a multicast packet.

Hopefully at somepoint we will just declare the case where
VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR is cleared as unsupported and remove
the code.  Until then this keeps it working correctly.

bff55273f9 v2 ethtool: remove support for ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE
This change is meant to remove all support for displaying an ntuple as
strings via ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE.  The reason for this change is due to the
fact that multiple issues have been found including:
 - Multiple buffer overruns for strings being displayed.
 - Incorrect filters displayed, cleared filters with ring of -2 are displayed
 - Setting get_rx_ntuple displays no rules if defined.
 - Endianess wrong on displayed values.
 - Hard limit of 1024 filters makes display functionality extremely limited

The only driver that had supported this interface was ixgbe.  Since it no
longer uses the interface and due to the issues mentioned above I am
submitting this patch to remove it.

v2:
Updated based on comments from Ben Hutchings
 - Left ETH_SS_NTUPLE_FILTERS in code but commented on it being deprecated
 - Removed ethtool_rx_ntuple_list and ethtool_rx_ntuple_flow_spec_container
 - Left ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE but commented it as deprecated

Also cleaned up set_rx_ntuple since there is no flow spec container to
maintain we can drop all the code for the alloc and free of it and just
return ops->set_rx_ntuple().

264524d5e5 net: cpu offline cause napi stall
Frank Blaschka reported :
<quote>
  During heavy network load we turn off/on cpus.
  Sometimes this causes a stall on the network device.
  Digging into the dump I found out following:

  napi is scheduled but does not run. From the I/O buffers
  and the napi state I see napi/rx_softirq processing has stopped
  because the budget was reached. napi stays in the
  softnet_data poll_list and the rx_softirq was raised again.

  I assume at this time the cpu offline comes in,
  the rx softirq is raised/moved to another cpu but napi stays in the
  poll_list of the softnet_data of the now offline cpu.

  Reviewing dev_cpu_callback (net/core/dev.c) I did not find the
  poll_list is transfered to the new cpu.
</quote>

This patch is a straightforward implementation of Frank suggestion :

Transfert poll_list and trigger NET_RX_SOFTIRQ on new cpu.

ec764bf083 net: tracepoint of net_dev_xmit sees freed skb and causes panic
Because there is a possibility that skb is kfree_skb()ed and zero cleared
after ndo_start_xmit, we should not see the contents of skb like skb->len and
skb->dev->name after ndo_start_xmit. But trace_net_dev_xmit does that
and causes panic by NULL pointer dereference.
This patch fixes trace_net_dev_xmit not to see the contents of skb directly.

If you want to reproduce this panic,

1. Get tracepoint of net_dev_xmit on
2. Create 2 guests on KVM
2. Make 2 guests use virtio_net
4. Execute netperf from one to another for a long time as a network burden
5. host will panic(It takes about 30 minutes)

c5c177b4ac net: Kill ratelimit.h dependency in linux/net.h
Ingo Molnar noticed that we have this unnecessary ratelimit.h
dependency in linux/net.h, which hid compilation problems from
people doing builds only with CONFIG_NET enabled.

Move this stuff out to a seperate net/net_ratelimit.h file and
include that in the only two places where this thing is needed.

where use of the WARN_RATELIMIT interfaces break the build because

Instead of going down the long road of trying to make it so that

just move the interface into ratelimit.h and make users have
to include that.

missed fact that rtnl_fill_ifinfo() must be called with rtnl held.

Because of possible deadlocks between two mutexes (cb_mutex and rtnl),
its not easy to solve this problem, so revert this part of the patch.

It also forgot one rcu_read_unlock() in FIB dump_rules()

be3fc413da net: use synchronize_rcu_expedited()
synchronize_rcu() is very slow in various situations (HZ=100,

Extract from my (mostly idle) 8 core machine :

 synchronize_rcu() in 99985 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79982 us

 synchronize_rcu() in 79827 us

When we hold RTNL mutex, we would like to spend some cpu cycles but not
block too long other processes waiting for this mutex.

We also want to setup/dismantle network features as fast as possible at
boot/shutdown time.

This patch makes synchronize_net() call the expedited version if RTNL is
locked.

6df427fe8c net: remove synchronize_net() from netdev_set_master()
In the old days, we used to access dev->master in __netif_receive_skb()
in a rcu_read_lock section.

So one synchronize_net() call was needed in netdev_set_master() to make
sure another cpu could not use old master while/after we release it.

We now use netdev_rx_handler infrastructure and added one
synchronize_net() call in bond_release()/bond_release_all()

Remove the obsolete synchronize_net() from netdev_set_master() and add
one in bridge del_nbp() after its netdev_rx_handler_unregister() call.

This makes enslave -d a bit faster.

268bb0ce3e sanitize <linux/prefetch.h> usage
Commit e66eed651f ("list: remove prefetching from regular list

uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather
obscure header file dependency.

So this fixes things up a bit, using

   grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]')
   grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]')

to guide us in finding files that either need <linux/prefetch.h>
inclusion, or have it despite not needing it.

There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets
many core ones.

0696c3a8ac net:set valid name before calling ndo_init()
In commit 1c5cae815d (net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice),
a bug of bonding was involved, see example 1 and 2.

In register_netdevice(), the name of net_device is not valid until
dev_get_valid_name() is called. But dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init(that is
bond_init) is called before dev_get_valid_name(),
and it uses the invalid name of net_device.

I think register_netdevice() should make sure that the name of net_device is
valid before calling ndo_init().

example 1:
modprobe bonding
ls  /proc/net/bonding/bond%d

ps -eLf
root      3398     2  3398  0    1 21:34 ?        00:00:00 [bond%d]

example 2:
modprobe bonding max_bonds=3

29dd54b72b ethtool: Added support for FW dump
Added code to take FW dump via ethtool. Dump level can be controlled via setting the
dump flag. A get function is provided to query the current setting of the dump flag.
Dump data is obtained from the driver via a separate get function.

Changes from v3:
Fixed buffer length issue in ethtool_get_dump_data function.
Updated kernel doc for ethtool_dump struct and get_dump_flag function.

Changes from v2:
Provided separate commands for get flag and data.
Check for minimum of the two buffer length obtained via ethtool and driver and
use that for dump buffer
Pass up the driver return error codes up to the caller.
Added kernel doc comments.

mac_pton() doesn't care about characters _after_ last octet,
it's up to caller to deal with it.

mac_pton() diverges from 0/-E return value convention.
Target usage:

	if (!mac_pton(str, whatever->mac))
		return -EINVAL;
	/* ->mac being u8 [ETH_ALEN] is filled at this point. */
	/* optionally check str[3 * ETH_ALEN - 1] for termination */

veth devices dont use the batched device unregisters yet.

Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two
unregisters, this roughly divides dismantle time by two.

Fix this by changing dellink() callers to always provide a non NULL
head. (Idea from Michał Mirosław)

This patch also handles macvlan case : We now dismantle all macvlans on
top of a lower dev at once.

eed2a12f1e net: Allow ethtool to set interface in loopback mode.
This patch enables ethtool to set the loopback mode on a given interface.
By configuring the interface in loopback mode in conjunction with a policy
route / rule, a userland application can stress the egress / ingress path
exposing the flows of the change in progress and potentially help developer(s)
understand the impact of those changes without even sending a packet out
on the network.

Following set of commands illustrates one such example -
    a) ip -4 addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1
    b) ip -4 rule add from all iif eth1 lookup 250
    c) ip -4 route add local 0/0 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 250
    d) arp -Ds 192.168.1.100 eth1
    e) arp -Ds 192.168.1.200 eth1
    f) sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1
    g) sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_local=1
    # Assuming that the machine has 8 cores
    h) taskset 000f netserver -L 192.168.1.200

e67f88dd12 net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink
dump callbacks.

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making
good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations.

This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow
on a workload adding/removing network devices in background.

All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does
roughly a revert of commits :

1c2d670f36 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks
6313c1e099 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed.

It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu
read section. I renamed it to phonet_route_get_rcu()

8ae6daca85 ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned data
This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's
get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it
is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if
the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't
get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of
setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET).

This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it
sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to
drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings()
does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function
also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.

All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been
updated.

0a14842f5a net: filter: Just In Time compiler for x86-64
In order to speedup packet filtering, here is an implementation of a
JIT compiler for x86_64

It is disabled by default, and must be enabled by the admin.

echo 1 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

It uses module_alloc() and module_free() to get memory in the 2GB text
kernel range since we call helpers functions from the generated code.

EAX : BPF A accumulator
EBX : BPF X accumulator
RDI : pointer to skb   (first argument given to JIT function)
RBP : frame pointer (even if CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER=n)
r9d : skb->len - skb->data_len (headlen)
r8  : skb->data

To get a trace of generated code, use :

echo 2 >/proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

Example of generated code :

# tcpdump -p -n -s 0 -i eth1 host 192.168.20.0/24

3aba891dde bonding: move processing of recv handlers into handle_frame()
Since now when bonding uses rx_handler, all traffic going into bond
device goes thru bond_handle_frame. So there's no need to go back into
bonding code later via ptype handlers. This patch converts
original ptype handlers into "bonding receive probes". These functions
are called from bond_handle_frame and they are registered per-mode.

Note that vlan packets are also handled because they are always untagged
thanks to vlan_untag()

Note that this also allows arpmon for eth-bond-bridge-vlan topology.

fce55922f5 ethtool: allow custom interval for physical identification
When physical identification of an adapter is done by toggling the
mechanism on and off through software utilizing the set_phys_id operation,
it is done with a fixed duration for both on and off states.  Some drivers
may want to set a custom duration for the on/off intervals.  This patch
changes the API so the return code from the driver's entry point when it
is called with ETHTOOL_ID_ACTIVE can specify the frequency at which to
cycle the on/off states, and updates the drivers that have already been
converted to use the new set_phys_id and use the synchronous method for
identifying an adapter.

The physical identification frequency set in the updated drivers is based
on how it was done prior to the introduction of set_phys_id.

Compile tested only.  Also fixes a compiler warning in sfc.

v2: drivers do not return -EINVAL for ETHOOL_ID_ACTIVE
v3: fold patchset into single patch and cleanup per Ben's feedback

Ethtool support to configure RX, TX and other channels. combined field
in struct ethtool_channels to reflect set of channel (RX, TX or other).
Other channel can be link interrupts, SR-IOV coordination etc.

ETHTOOL_GCHANNELS will report max and current number of RX channels,
max and current number of TX channels, max and current number of other channel
or max and current number of combined channel.

Number of channel can be modify upto max number of channel through
ETHTOOL_SCHANNELS command.

Ben Hutchings:
o define 'combined' and 'other' types.  Most multiqueue drivers pair up RX and TX
  queues so that most channels combine RX and TX work.
o Please could you use a kernel-doc comment to describe the structure.

ea2d36883c net: Disable all TSO features when SG is disabled
The feature flags NETIF_F_TSO and NETIF_F_TSO6 independently enable
TSO for IPv4 and IPv6 respectively.  However, the test in
netdev_fix_features() and its predecessor functions was never updated
to check for NETIF_F_TSO6, possibly because it was originally proposed
that TSO for IPv6 would be dependent on both feature flags.

Now that these feature flags can be changed independently from
user-space and we depend on netdev_fix_features() to fix invalid
feature combinations, it's important to disable them both if
scatter-gather is disabled.  Also disable NETIF_F_TSO_ECN so
user-space sees all TSO features as disabled.

bcc6d47903 net: vlan: make non-hw-accel rx path similar to hw-accel
Now there are 2 paths for rx vlan frames. When rx-vlan-hw-accel is
enabled, skb is untagged by NIC, vlan_tci is set and the skb gets into
vlan code in __netif_receive_skb - vlan_hwaccel_do_receive.

For non-rx-vlan-hw-accel however, tagged skb goes thru whole
__netif_receive_skb, it's untagged in ptype_base hander and reinjected

This incosistency is fixed by this patch. Vlan untagging happens early in
__netif_receive_skb so the rest of code (ptype_all handlers, rx_handlers)
see the skb like it was untagged by hw.

5d9f11cf50 ethtool: prevent null pointer dereference with NTUPLE set but no set_rx_ntuple
This change is meant to prevent a possible null pointer dereference if
NETIF_F_NTUPLE is defined but the set_rx_ntuple function pointer is not.

The main motivation behind this patch is to eventually replace the ntuple
interfaces entirely with the network flow classifier interfaces.  This
allows the device drivers to maintain the ntuple check internally while
using the network flow classifier interface for setting up and displaying
rules.
