The thing is that netdev_master_upper_dev_link calls
call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER, dev). That generates rtnl
link message and during that, rtnl_link_ops->fill_slave_info is called.
But with current ordering, rx_handler and IFF_BRIDGE_PORT are not set
yet so there would have to be check for that in fill_slave_info callback.
Resolve this by reordering to similar what bonding and team does to
avoid the check.
Also add removal of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT flag into error path.

For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"The changes consists of:
- Coding style fixes to HCI drivers
- Corrupted ack value fix for the H5 HCI driver
- A couple of Enhanced L2CAP fixes
- Conversion of SMP code to use common L2CAP channel API
- Page scan optimizations when using the kernel-side whitelist
- Various mac802154 and and ieee802154 6lowpan cleanups
- One new Atheros USB ID"
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"We have a new big thing coming up which is called Dynamic Queue
Allocation (or DQA). This is a completely new way to work with the
Tx queues and it requires major refactoring. This is being done by
Johannes and Avri. Besides this, Johannes disables U-APSD by default
because of APs that would disable A-MPDU if the association supports
U-ASPD. Luca contributed to the power area which he was cleaning
up on the way while working on CSA. A few more random things here
and there."
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"For ath6kl we had two small fixes and a new SDIO device id.
For ath10k the bigger changes are:
* support for new firmware version 10.2 (Michal)
* spectral scan support (Simon, Sven & Mathias)
* export a firmware crash dump file (Ben & me)
* cleaning up of pci.c (Michal)
* print pci id in all messages, which causes most of the churn (Michal)"
Beyond that, we have the usual collection of various updates to ath9k,
b43, mwifiex, and wil6210, as well as a few other bits here and there.

inetpeer sequence numbers are no longer incremented, so no need to
check and flush the tree. The function that increments the sequence
number was already dead code and removed in in "ipv4: remove unused
function" (068a6e18). Remove the code that checks for a change, too.
Verifying that v4_seq and v6_seq are never incremented and thus that
flush_check compares bp->flush_seq to 0 is trivial.
The second part of the change removes flush_check completely even
though bp->flush_seq is exactly !0 once, at initialization. This
change is correct because the time this branch is true is when
bp->root == peer_avl_empty_rcu, in which the branch and
inetpeer_invalidate_tree are a NOOP.

It is possible that the interface is already gone after joining
the list of anycast on this interface as we don't hold a refcount

What's more important, for API compatibility we should not

This patch updates some of the flow_dissector api so that it can be used to
parse the length of ethernet buffers stored in fragments. Most of the
changes needed were to __skb_get_poff as it needed to be updated to support
sending a linear buffer instead of a skb.
I have split __skb_get_poff into two functions, the first is skb_get_poff
and it retains the functionality of the original __skb_get_poff. The other
function is __skb_get_poff which now works much like __skb_flow_dissect in
relation to skb_flow_dissect in that it provides the same functionality but
works with just a data buffer and hlen instead of needing an skb.

The phy timestamping takes a different path than the regular timestamping
does in that it will create a clone first so that the packets needing to be
timestamped can be placed in a queue, or the context block could be used.
In order to support these use cases I am pulling the core of the code out
so it can be used in other drivers beyond just phy devices.
In addition I have added a destructor named sock_efree which is meant to
provide a simple way for dropping the reference to skb exceptions that
aren't part of either the receive or send windows for the socket, and I
have removed some duplication in spots where this destructor could be used
in place of sock_edemux.

The timestamping API has separate bits for generating and reporting
timestamps. A software timestamp should only be reported for a packet
when the packet has the relevant generation flag (SKBTX_..) set
and the socket has reporting bit SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE set.
The second check was accidentally removed. Reinstitute the original
behavior.
Tested:
Without this patch, Documentation/networking/txtimestamp reports
timestamps regardless of whether SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE is set.
After the patch, it only reports them when the flag is set.

Marcel reported to see the following message when autoloading
is being triggered when adding nlmon device:
Loading kernel module for a network device with
CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated). Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias
netdev-nlmon instead.
This false-positive happens despite with having correct
capabilities set, e.g. through issuing `ip link del dev nlmon`
more than once on a valid device with name nlmon, but Marcel
has also seen it on creation time when no nlmon module is
previously compiled-in or loaded as module and the device
name equals a link type name (e.g. nlmon, vxlan, team).
Stephen says:
The netdev module alias is a hold over from the past. For
normal devices, people used to create a alias eth0 to and
point it to the type of network device used, that was back
in the bad old ISA days before real discovery.
Also, the tunnels create module alias for the control device
and ip used to use this to autoload the tunnel device.
The message is bogus and should just be removed, I also see
it in a couple of other cases where tap devices are renamed
for other usese.
As mentioned in 8909c9ad8f ("net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN
to load non-netdev kernel modules"), we nevertheless still
might want to leave the old autoloading behaviour in place
as it could break old scripts, so for now, lets just remove
the log message as Stephen suggests.

With eBPF getting more extended and exposure to user space is on it's way,
hardening the memory range the interpreter uses to steer its command flow
seems appropriate. This patch moves the to be interpreted bytecode to
read-only pages.
In case we execute a corrupted BPF interpreter image for some reason e.g.
caused by an attacker which got past a verifier stage, it would not only
provide arbitrary read/write memory access but arbitrary function calls
as well. After setting up the BPF interpreter image, its contents do not
change until destruction time, thus we can setup the image on immutable
made pages in order to mitigate modifications to that code. The idea
is derived from commit 314beb9bca ("x86: bpf_jit_comp: secure bpf jit
against spraying attacks").
This is possible because bpf_prog is not part of sk_filter anymore.
After setup bpf_prog cannot be altered during its life-time. This prevents
any modifications to the entire bpf_prog structure (incl. function/JIT
image pointer).
Every eBPF program (including classic BPF that are migrated) have to call
bpf_prog_select_runtime() to select either interpreter or a JIT image
as a last setup step, and they all are being freed via bpf_prog_free(),
including non-JIT. Therefore, we can easily integrate this into the
eBPF life-time, plus since we directly allocate a bpf_prog, we have no
performance penalty.
Tested with seccomp and test_bpf testsuite in JIT/non-JIT mode and manual
inspection of kernel_page_tables. Brad Spengler proposed the same idea
via Twitter during development of this patch.

However this overlooked the fact that we do not always enqueue

TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS and qdisc is empty. Second situation is if
there is no qdisc on the device, which is a common case for
software devices.

code path for qdiscs with TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS flag, and in
__dev_queue_xmit() when no qdisc.
Also handle the error situation where dev_hard_start_xmit() could
return a skb list, and does not return dev_xmit_complete(rc) and
falls through to the kfree_skb(), in that situation it should
call kfree_skb_list().
Fixes: 50cbe9ab5f ("net: Validate xmit SKBs right when we pull them out of the qdisc")

More minor fixes to merge commit 53fda7f7f9 (Merge branch 'xmit_list')
that allows us to work with a list of SKBs.
Fixing exit cases in qdisc_reset() and qdisc_destroy(), where a
leftover requeued SKB (qdisc->gso_skb) can have the potential of
being a skb list, thus use kfree_skb_list().
This is a followup to commit 10770bc2d1 ("qdisc: adjustments for
API allowing skb list xmits").

The user_skb maybe be leaked if the operation on it failed and codes
skipped into the label "out:" without calling genlmsg_unicast.

====================
pull request: Netfilter/IPVS fixes for net
The following patchset contains seven Netfilter fixes for your net
tree, they are:
1) Make the NAT infrastructure independent of x_tables, some users are
already starting to test nf_tables with NAT without enabling x_tables.
Without this patch for Kconfig, there's a superfluous dependency
between NAT and x_tables.
2) Allow to use 0 in the cgroup match, the kernel rejects with -EINVAL
with no good reason. From Daniel Borkmann.
3) Select CONFIG_NF_NAT from the nf_tables NAT expression, this also
resolves another NAT dependency with x_tables.
4) Use HAVE_JUMP_LABEL instead of CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL in the Netfilter hook
code as elsewhere in the kernel to resolve toolchain problems, from
Zhouyi Zhou.
5) Use iptunnel_handle_offloads() to set up tunnel encapsulation
depending on the offload capabilities, reported by Alex Gartrell
patch from Julian Anastasov.
6) Fix wrong family when registering the ip_vs_local_reply6() hook,
also from Julian.
7) Select the NF_LOG_* symbols from NETFILTER_XT_TARGET_LOG. Rafał
Miłecki reported that when jumping from 3.16 to 3.17-rc, his log
target is not selected anymore due to changes in the previous
development cycle to accomodate the full logging support for
nf_tables.

Depending on which parameters were updated, the changes were not propagated via
the notifier chain and netlink.
The new flag has been set only when the change did not cause a call to the
notifier chain and/or to the netlink notification functions.
