sh_eth: use RNC mode for packet reception
The current behaviour of the sh_eth driver is not to use the RNC bit
for the receive ring. This means that every packet recieved is not only
generating an IRQ but it also stops the receive ring DMA as well until
the driver re-enables it after unloading the packet.
This means that a number of the following errors are generated due to
the receive packet FIFO overflowing due to nowhere to put packets:
net eth0: Receive FIFO Overflow
Since feedback from Yoshihiro Shimoda shows that every supported LSI
for this driver should have the bit enabled it seems the best way is
to remove the RMCR default value from the per-system data and just
write it when initialising the RMCR value. This is discussed in
the message (http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg284912.html).
I have tested the RMCR_RNC configuration with NFS root filesystem and
the driver has not failed yet. There are further test reports from
Sergei Shtylov and others for both the R8A7790 and R8A7791.
There is also feedback fron Cao Minh Hiep[1] which reports the
same issue in (http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/316285)
showing this fixes issues with losing UDP datagrams under iperf.

xfrm: fix race between netns cleanup and state expire notification
The xfrm_user module registers its pernet init/exit after xfrm
itself so that its net exit function xfrm_user_net_exit() is
executed before xfrm_net_exit() which calls xfrm_state_fini() to
cleanup the SA's (xfrm states). This opens a window between
zeroing net->xfrm.nlsk pointer and deleting all xfrm_state
instances which may access it (via the timer). If an xfrm state
expires in this window, xfrm_exp_state_notify() will pass null
pointer as socket to nlmsg_multicast().
As the notifications are called inside rcu_read_lock() block, it
is sufficient to retrieve the nlsk socket with rcu_dereference()
and check the it for null.

bridge: Add bridge ifindex to bridge fdb notify msgs
(This patch was previously posted as RFC at
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/352677/)
This patch adds NDA_MASTER attribute to neighbour attributes enum for
bridge/master ifindex. And adds NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs.
Today bridge fdb notifications dont contain bridge information.
Userspace can derive it from the port information in the fdb
notification. However this is tricky in some scenarious.
Example, bridge port delete notification comes before bridge fdb
delete notifications. And we have seen problems in userspace
when using libnl where, the bridge fdb delete notification handling code
does not understand which bridge this fdb entry is part of because
the bridge and port association has already been deleted.
And these notifications (port membership and fdb) are generated on
separate rtnl groups.
Fixing the order of notifications could possibly solve the problem
for some cases (I can submit a separate patch for that).
This patch chooses to add NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs
because it not only solves the problem described above, but also helps
userspace avoid another lookup into link msgs to derive the master index.

tcp: fix cwnd undo on DSACK in F-RTO
This bug is discovered by an recent F-RTO issue on tcpm list
https://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/tcpm/current/msg08794.html
The bug is that currently F-RTO does not use DSACK to undo cwnd in
certain cases: upon receiving an ACK after the RTO retransmission in
F-RTO, and the ACK has DSACK indicating the retransmission is spurious,
the sender only calls tcp_try_undo_loss() if some never retransmisted
data is sacked (FLAG_ORIG_DATA_SACKED).
The correct behavior is to unconditionally call tcp_try_undo_loss so
the DSACK information is used properly to undo the cwnd reduction.

netlink: Only check file credentials for implicit destinations
It was possible to get a setuid root or setcap executable to write to
it's stdout or stderr (which has been set made a netlink socket) and
inadvertently reconfigure the networking stack.
To prevent this we check that both the creator of the socket and
the currentl applications has permission to reconfigure the network
stack.
Unfortunately this breaks Zebra which always uses sendto/sendmsg
and creates it's socket without any privileges.
To keep Zebra working don't bother checking if the creator of the
socket has privilege when a destination address is specified. Instead
rely exclusively on the privileges of the sender of the socket.
Note from Andy: This is exactly Eric's code except for some comment
clarifications and formatting fixes. Neither I nor, I think, anyone
else is thrilled with this approach, but I'm hesitant to wait on a
better fix since 3.15 is almost here.
Note to stable maintainers: This is a mess. An earlier series of
patches in 3.15 fix a rather serious security issue (CVE-2014-0181),
but they did so in a way that breaks Zebra. The offending series

net: filter: fix length calculation in BPF testsuite
The current probe_filter_length() (the function that calculates the

insn ("ld #0"), so any filter with includes "BPF_STMT(BPF_LD | BPF_IMM, 0)"

We are changing probe_filter_length() so as to start from the end, and
declare the end of the filter as the first instruction which is not

alternative of using an explicit end-of-filter mark. It is technically

"Ben added support for setting antenna configurations. Michal improved
warm reset so that we would not need to fall back to cold reset that
often, an issue where ath10k stripped protected flag while in monitor
mode and made module initialisation asynchronous to fix the problems
with firmware loading when the driver is linked to the kernel.
Luca removed unused channel_switch_beacon callbacks both from ath9k and
ath10k. Marek fixed Protected Management Frames (PMF) when using Action
Frames. Also we had other small fixes everywhere in the driver."
Along with that, there are a handful of updates to a variety
of drivers. This includes updates to at76c50x-usb, ath9k, b43,
brcmfmac, mwifiex, rsi, rtlwifi, and wil6210.

inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count
Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP
generator.
linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge
cost on servers disabling MTU discovery.
1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes
2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs,
with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load.
3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth
is about 20.
4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of
not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in
the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id())
5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively.
IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect'
Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time,
so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of
fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments
with a recycled ID.
We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP
as a key.
ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it
belongs (it is only used from this file)
secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed.
Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid
unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments.

Provide common means for device address sync
The following series implements a means for synchronizing both unicast and
multicast addresses on a device interface. The code is based on the original
implementation of dev_uc_sync that was available for syncing a VLAN to the
lower dev.
The original reason for coming up for this patch is a driver that is still in
the early stages of development. The nearest driver I could find that
appeared to have the same limitations as the driver I was working on was the
Cisco enic driver. For this reason I chose it as the first driver to make use
of this interface publicly.
However, I do not have a Cisco enic interface so I have only been able to
compile test any changes made to the driver. I tried to keep this change as

enic: Update driver to use __dev_uc/mc_sync/unsync calls
This change updates the enic driver to make use of __dev_uc_sync and
__dev_mc_sync calls. Previously the driver was doing its own list
management by storing the mc_addr and uc_addr list in a 32 address array.
With this change the sync data is stored in the netdev_addr_list structures
and instead we just track how many addresses we have written to the device.
When we encounter 32 we stop and print a message as occurred previously with
the old approach.
Other than the core change the only other bit needed was to propagate the
constant attribute with the MAC address as there were several spots where
is twas only passed as a u8 * instead of a const u8 *.
This patch is meant to maintain the original functionality without the use
of the mc_addr and uc_addr arrays.

net: filter: get rid of BPF_S_* enum
This patch finally allows us to get rid of the BPF_S_* enum.
Currently, the code performs unnecessary encode and decode
workarounds in seccomp and filter migration itself when a filter
is being attached in order to overcome BPF_S_* encoding which
is not used anymore by the new interpreter resp. JIT compilers.
Keeping it around would mean that also in future we would need
to extend and maintain this enum and related encoders/decoders.
We can get rid of all that and save us these operations during
filter attaching. Naturally, also JIT compilers need to be updated
by this.
Before JIT conversion is being done, each compiler checks if A
is being loaded at startup to obtain information if it needs to
emit instructions to clear A first. Since BPF extensions are a
subset of BPF_LD | BPF_{W,H,B} | BPF_ABS variants, case statements
for extensions can be removed at that point. To ease and minimalize
code changes in the classic JITs, we have introduced bpf_anc_helper().
Tested with test_bpf on x86_64 (JIT, int), s390x (JIT, int),
arm (JIT, int), i368 (int), ppc64 (JIT, int); for sparc we
unfortunately didn't have access, but changes are analogous to

There has been a number incidents recently where customers running KVM have

pcap traces we found that the bridge was broadcasting the ARP request out

were broadcasting the VMs ARP request back through the physical NIC on the
Hypervisor. This resulted in the bridge changing ports and incorrectly learning
that the VMs mac address was external. As a result the ARP reply was directed
back onto the external network and VM never updated it's ARP cache. This patch

net: fix wrong mac_len calculation for vlans
After
1e785f48d29a ("net: Start with correct mac_len in
skb_network_protocol") skb->mac_len is used as a start of the
calculation in skb_network_protocol() but that is not always correct. If
skb->protocol == 8021Q/AD, usually the vlan header is already inserted
in the skb (i.e. vlan reorder hdr == 0). Usually when the packet enters
dev_hard_xmit it has mac_len == 0 so we take 2 bytes from the
destination mac address (skb->data + VLAN_HLEN) as a type in
skb_network_protocol() and return vlan_depth == 4. In the case where TSO is
off, then the mac_len is set but it's == 18 (ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN), so
skb_network_protocol() returns a type from inside the packet and
offset == 22. Also make vlan_depth unsigned as suggested before.
As suggested by Eric Dumazet, move the while() loop in the if() so we
can avoid additional testing in fast path.
Here are few netperf tests + debug printk's to illustrate:

If the number of IRQs allocated is greater than the number of local NUMA cores, all

net/mlx4_en: Use affinity hint
The “affinity hint” mechanism is used by the user space
daemon, irqbalancer, to indicate a preferred CPU mask for irqs.
Irqbalancer can use this hint to balance the irqs between the
cpus indicated by the mask.
We wish the HCA to preferentially map the IRQs it uses to numa cores
close to it. To accomplish this, we use cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(), that
sets the affinity hint according the following policy:
First it maps IRQs to “close” numa cores. If these are exhausted, the
remaining IRQs are mapped to “far” numa cores.

cpumask: Utility function to set n'th cpu - local cpu first
This function sets the n'th cpu - local cpu's first.
For example: in a 16 cores server with even cpu's local, will get the
following values:
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(0, numa, cpumask) => cpu 0 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(1, numa, cpumask) => cpu 2 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(7, numa, cpumask) => cpu 14 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(8, numa, cpumask) => cpu 1 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(9, numa, cpumask) => cpu 3 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(15, numa, cpumask) => cpu 15 is set
Curently this function will be used by multi queue networking devices to
calculate the irq affinity mask, such that as many local cpu's as
possible will be utilized to handle the mq device irq's.
