Commit 1f718f0f4f ("bonding: populate neighbour's private on enslave")
undoes the fix provided by commit c2edacf80e ("bonding / ipv6: no addrconf
for slaves separately from master") by effectively setting the slave flag
after the slave has been opened. If the slave comes up quickly enough, it
will go through the IPv6 addrconf before the slave flag has been set and
will get a link local IPv6 address.
In order to ensure that addrconf knows to ignore the slave devices on state
change, set IFF_SLAVE before dev_open() during bonding enslavement.

net/mlx5_core: Enhance flow steering support
v0 --> v1 changes:
- fixed improperly formatted comments.
- compare value of ib_spec->eth.mask.ether_type in network byte order
in ('IB/mlx5: Add flow steering utilities').
v1 --> v2 changes:
- made sure that service functions added in the IB driver are only static-fied
on the last commit, to make sure bisection with -Werror works fine.
v2 --> v3 changes:
- squashed patches 11 and 12 into one patch, s.t Dave's comment
on unused static functions gcc complaints during bisection is
correctly addressed.
v3 has been generated against net-next commit c9c9931 "Merge tag
'batman-adv-for-davem' of git://git.open-mesh.org/linux-merge"
The series is signed by Matan who was revently assigned to a maintainer for
the mlx5_core and IB drivers (this is a 4.5-rc1 change to the maintainers file coming
from the rdma tree) -- as such I didn't see a neeed to add my signature (Or).
This series adds three new functionalists to the driver flow-steering
infrastructure: auto-grouped flow tables, chaining of flow tables and
updates for the root flow table.
1. Auto-grouped flow tables - Flow table with auto grouping management.
When a flow table is created, hints regarding the number of rule types
and the number of rules are given in advance. Thus, a flow table is
divided into #NUM_TYPES+1 groups each contains
(#NUM_RULES)/(#NUM_TYPES+1) rules. The first #NUM_TYPES parts are groups
which are filled if the added rule matches the group specification or
the group is empty. The last part is filled by rules that can't fit
any of the former groups.
2. Chaining flow tables - Flow tables from different priorities are chained
together, if there is no match in flow table of priority i we continue
searching for a match in priority i+1. This is both true if priorities
i and i+1 belongs to the same namespace or not.
3. Updating the root flow table - the root flow table is the flow table
with the lowest level. The hardware start searching for a match in the
root flow table and continue according to the matches it find along
the way.
The first usage for the new functionality is flow steering for user-space
ConnectX-4 offloaded HW Eth RX queues done through the mlx5 IB driver.
When the mlx5 core driver is loaded, it opens three flow namespaces:
1. By-pass namespace (used by mlx5 IB driver).
2. Kernel namespace (used in order to get packets to the networking stack
through mlx5 EN driver).
3. Leftovers namespace (used by mlx5 IB and future sniffer)
The series is built as follows:
Patch #1 introduces auto-grouped flow tables support.
Patch #2 add utility functions for finding the next and the previous
flow tables in different priorities. This is used in order to chain
the flow tables in a downstream patch.
Patch #3 introduces a firmware command for updating the root flow table.
Patch #4 introduces modify flow table firmware command, this command is used
when we want to change the next flow table of an existing flow table.
This is used for chaining flow tables as well.
Patch #5 connect/disconnect flow tables. This is actually the chaining
process when we want to link flow tables. This means that if we couldn't
find a match in the first flow table, we'll continue in the chained
flow table.
Patch #6 updates priority's attributes that is required for flow table
level allocation. We update both the max_fts (the number of allowed FTs
in the sub-tree of this priority) and the start_level (which is the first
level we'll assign to the flow-tables created inside the priority).
Patch #7 adds checking of required device capabilities. Some namespaces
could be only created if the hardware supports certain attributes.
This is especially true for the Bypass and leftovers namespaces. This
adds a generic mechanism to check these required attributes.
Patch #8 creates two additional namespaces:
a. Bypass flow rules(has nine priorities)
b. Leftovers packets(have one priority) - for unmatched packets.
Patch #9 re-factors ipv4/ipv6 match fields in the mlx5 firmware interface
header to be more clear.
Patch #10 exports the flow steering API for mlx5_ib usage
Patch #11 implements the required support in mlx5_ib in order
to support the RDMA flow steering verbs.

Adding flow steering support by creating a flow-table per
priority (if rules exist in the priority). mlx5_ib uses
autogrouping and thus only creates the required destinations.
Also includes adding of these flow steering utilities
1. Parsing verbs flow attributes hardware steering specs.
2. Check if flow is multicast - this is required in order to decide
to which flow table will we add the steering rule.
3. Set outer headers in flow match criteria to zeros.

table with auto flow grouping management (create and destroy
flow groups). In auto-grouped flow tables, we create groups
automatically if needed (if we don't find an existing
flow group with same match criteria when we add new rule).
2. mlx5_destroy_flow_table - used to destroy a flow table.
3. mlx5_add_flow_rule - used to add flow rule into a flow table.
4. mlx5_del_flow_rule - used to delete flow rule from its flow table.
5. mlx5_get_flow_namespace - used to get a handle to the required
namespace sub-tree.

When the driver is loaded, we create flow steering namespace
for kernel bypass with nine priorities and another namespace
for leftovers(in order to catch packets that weren't matched).
Verbs applications will use these priorities.
we found nine as a number that balances the requirements from the
user and retains performance.
The bypass namespace is used by verbs applications that want to bypass
the kernel networking stack. The leftovers namespace is used by verbs
applications and the sniffer in order to catch packets that weren't
handled by any preceding rules.

Each priority has two attributes:
1. max_ft - maximum allowed flow tables under this priority.
2. start_level - start level range of the flow tables
in the priority.
These attributes are set by traversing the tree nodes by
DFS and set start level and max flow tables to each priority.
Start level depends on the max flow tables of the prior priorities
in the tree.
The leaves of the trees have max_ft set in them. Each node accumulates
the max_ft of its children and set it accordingly.

Flow tables from different priorities should be chained together.
When a packet arrives we search for a match in the
by-pass flow tables (first we search for a match in priority 0
and if we don't find a match we move to the next priority).
If we can't find a match in any of the bypass flow-tables, we continue
searching in the flow-tables of the next priority, which are the
kernel's flow tables.
Setting the miss flow table in a new flow table to be the next one in
the list is performed via create flow table API. If we want to change an
existing flow table, for example in order to point from an
existing flow table to the new next-in-list flow table, we use the
modify flow table API.

by default, as the Flow Table with level 0.
In order not to use an empty flow tables and introduce new hops,
but still preserve space for flow-tables that have a priority
greater(lower number) than the current flow table, we introduce this
new set root flow table command.
This command tells the HW to start matching packets from the
assigned root flow table.
This command is used when we create new flow table with level lower than the
current lowest flow table or it is the first flow table.

Commit acf8dd0a9d ("udp: only allow UFO for packets from SOCK_DGRAM
sockets") disallows UFO for packets sent from raw sockets. We need to do
the same also for SOCK_DGRAM sockets with SO_NO_CHECK options, even if
for a bit different reason: while such socket would override the
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL set by ip_ufo_append_data(), gso_size is still set and
bad offloading flags warning is triggered in __skb_gso_segment().
In the IPv6 case, SO_NO_CHECK option is ignored but we need to disallow
UFO for packets sent by sockets with UDP_NO_CHECK6_TX option.

- Introduce the 'perf stat record/report' workflow:
Generate perf.data files from 'perf stat', to tap into the
scripting capabilities perf has instead of defining a 'perf stat'
specific scripting support to calculate event ratios, etc.
Simple example:
$ perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1
Performance counter stats for 'usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$ perf stat report
Performance counter stats for '/home/acme/bin/perf stat record -e cycles usleep 1':
1,134,996 cycles
0.000670644 seconds time elapsed
$
It generates PERF_RECORD_ userspace records to store the details:
$ perf report -D | grep PERF_RECORD
0xf0 [0x28]: PERF_RECORD_THREAD_MAP nr: 1 thread: 27637
0x118 [0x12]: PERF_RECORD_CPU_MAP nr: 1 cpu: 65535

0x1da [0x18]: PERF_RECORD_STAT_ROUND
[acme@ssdandy linux]$
An effort was made to make perf.data files generated like this to
not generate cryptic messages when processed by older tools.
The 'perf script' bits need rebasing, will go up later.
- Make command line options always available, even when they depend
on some feature being enabled, warning the user about use of such
options (Wang Nan)
- Support hw breakpoint events (mem:0xAddress) in the default output
mode in 'perf script' (Wang Nan)
- Fixes and improvements for supporting annotating ARM binaries,
support ARM call and jump instructions, more work needed to have
arch specific stuff separated into tools/perf/arch/*/annotate/
(Russell King)
- Add initial 'perf config' command, for now just with a --list
command to the contents of the configuration file in use and a
basic man page describing its format, commands for doing edits and
detailed documentation are being reviewed and proof-read. (Taeung
Song)
- Allows BPF scriptlets specify arguments to be fetched using DWARF
info, using a prologue generated at compile/build time (He Kuang,
Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to module symbols (Wang Nan)
- Allow attaching BPF scriptlets to userspace code using uprobe (Wang

BPF update
This set adds IPv6 support for bpf_skb_{set,get}_tunnel_key() helper.
It also exports flags to user space that are being used in helpers and
weren't exported thus far. For more details, please see the individual
patches.

After IPv6 support has recently been added to metadata dst and related
encaps, add support for populating/reading it from an eBPF program.
Commit d3aa45ce6b ("bpf: add helpers to access tunnel metadata") started
with initial IPv4-only support back then (due to IPv6 metadata support
not being available yet).
To stay compatible with older programs, we need to test for the passed
structure size. Also TOS and TTL support from the ip_tunnel_info key has
been added. Tested with vxlan devs in collect meta data mode with IPv4,
IPv6 and in compat mode over different network namespaces.

Export flags used by eBPF helper functions through UAPI, so they can be
used by programs (instead of them redefining all flags each time or just
using the hard-coded values). It also gives a better overview what flags
are used where and we can further get rid of the extra macros defined in
filter.c. Moreover, reject invalid flags.

For tcp_yeah, use an ssthresh floor of 2, the same floor used by Reno
and CUBIC, per RFC 5681 (equation 4).
tcp_yeah_ssthresh() was sometimes returning a 0 or negative ssthresh
value if the intended reduction is as big or bigger than the current
cwnd. Congestion control modules should never return a zero or
negative ssthresh. A zero ssthresh generally results in a zero cwnd,
causing the connection to stall. A negative ssthresh value will be
interpreted as a u32 and will set a target cwnd for PRR near 4
billion.
Oleksandr Natalenko reported that a system using tcp_yeah with ECN
could see a warning about a prior_cwnd of 0 in
tcp_cwnd_reduction(). Testing verified that this was due to
tcp_yeah_ssthresh() misbehaving in this way.

The spew in /proc/net/bonding/bond0 uses netif_carrier_ok() to determine
mii_status, while /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/mii_status looks at
curr_active_slave, which doesn't actually seem to be set sometimes when
the bond actually is up. A mode 4 bond configured via ifcfg-foo files on a
Red Hat Enterprise Linux system, after boot, comes up clean and
functional, but the sysfs node shows mii_status of down, while proc shows
up. A simple enough fix here seems to be to use the same method for
determining up or down in both places, and I'd opt for the one that seems
to match reality.

Dmitry Vyukov reported a use-after-free in the code expanded by the
macro debug_post_sfx, which is caused by the use of the asoc pointer
after it was freed within sctp_side_effect() scope.
This patch fixes it by allowing sctp_side_effect to clear that asoc
pointer when the TCB is freed.
As Vlad explained, we also have to cover the SCTP_DISPOSITION_ABORT case
because it will trigger DELETE_TCB too on that same loop.
Also, there were places issuing SCTP_CMD_INIT_FAILED and ASSOC_FAILED
but returning SCTP_DISPOSITION_CONSUME, which would fool the scheme
above. Fix it by returning SCTP_DISPOSITION_ABORT instead.
The macro is already prepared to handle such NULL pointer.

Dumping the FDB (invoked with a process context) or handling FDB
notifications (polled periodicly in delayed work) might each entail
multiple EMAD transcations due to the number of entries.
While we only allow one EMAD transaction at a time, there is nothing
stopping the dump and notification processing sessions from
interleaving. However, this is forbidden by the hardware, so we need to
make sure only one of these sessions can run at a time.
Solve this by adding a mutex ('fdb_lock'), as both kernel threads can
sleep while waiting for the response EMAD.

It is possible for a process to allocate and accumulate far more FDs than
the process' limit by sending them over a unix socket then closing them
to keep the process' fd count low.
This change addresses this problem by keeping track of the number of FDs
in flight per user and preventing non-privileged processes from having
more FDs in flight than their configured FD limit.
