====================
Make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules
I'm re-spinning this patchset. At the begining it was suggested to use a
different name for the parameter, but at the end [3] the resolution was to
leave it as it is in this patch.
Drivers need to know if running from kdump kernel in order to change their
memory profile - since kdump environment is limited by available memory.
Currently there are drivers that are using reset_devices as suggested in [2].
In [2] it was suggested to use reset_devices, but the context was, to enable
driver to know when the hardware device is needed to be reset, and not if this
is a kdump environment. We think that is_kdump_kernel() is better suited to
select between different memory profiles.
The first patch in this patchset exports a needed symbol in order to make
is_kdump_kernel() accessible from the drivers. The rest of the patches change
from reset_devices to is_kdump_kernel() in 2 networking drivers.
The idea of this patchset was suggested by Vivek Goyal.
Tested (only build) and applied on top of commit 8fc54f6: ("net: use
reciprocal_scale() helper")

This was rejected in the past [1] because reset_devices was prefered in

Merge branch 'ndo_xmit_flush'
Basic deferred TX queue flushing infrastructure.
Over time, and specifically and more recently at the Networking
Workshop during Kernel SUmmit in Chicago, we have discussed the idea
of having some way to optimize transmits of multiple TX packets at
a time.
There are several areas of overhead that could be amortized with such
schemes. One has to do with locking and transactional overhead, the
other has to do with device specific costs.
This patch set here is more aimed at device specific costs.
Typically a device queues up a packet in the TX queue and then has to
do something to have the device start processing that new entry.
Sometimes this is composed of doing an MMIO write to a "tail"
register, and in other cases it can involve something as expensive as
a hypervisor call.
The basic setup defined here is that when the driver supports deferred
TX queue flushing, ndo_start_xmit should no longer perform that
operation. Instead a new operation, ndo_xmit_flush, should do it.
I have converted IGB and virtio_net as example initial users. The IGB
conversion is tested, virtio_net is not but it does compile :-)
All ndo_start_xmit call sites have been abstracted behind a new helper
called netdev_start_xmit().
This just adds the infrastructure, it does not actually add any
instances of actually doing multiple ndo_start_xmit calls per
ndo_xmit_flush invocation.

random32: improvements to prandom_bytes
This patch addresses a couple of minor items, mostly addesssing
prandom_bytes(): 1) prandom_bytes{,_state}() should use size_t
for length arguments, 2) We can use put_unaligned() when filling
the array instead of open coding it [ perhaps some archs will
further benefit from their own arch specific implementation when
GCC cannot make up for it ], 3) Fix a typo, 4) Better use unsigned
int as type for getting the arch seed, 5) Make use of
prandom_u32_max() for timer slack.
Regarding the change to put_unaligned(), callers of prandom_bytes()
which internally invoke prandom_bytes_state(), don't bother as
they expect the array to be filled randomly and don't have any
control of the internal state what-so-ever (that's also why we
have periodic reseeding there, etc), so they really don't care.
Now for the direct callers of prandom_bytes_state(), which
are solely located in test cases for MTD devices, that is,
drivers/mtd/tests/{oobtest.c,pagetest.c,subpagetest.c}:
These tests basically fill a test write-vector through
prandom_bytes_state() with an a-priori defined seed each time
and write that to a MTD device. Later on, they set up a read-vector
and read back that blocks from the device. So in the verification
phase, the write-vector is being re-setup [ so same seed and
prandom_bytes_state() called ], and then memcmp()'ed against the
read-vector to check if the data is the same.
Akinobu, Lothar and I also tested this patch and it runs through
the 3 relevant MTD test cases w/o any errors on the nandsim device
(simulator for MTD devs) for x86_64, ppc64, ARM (i.MX28, i.MX53
and i.MX6):
We also don't have any users depending directly on a particular
result of the PRNG (except the PRNG self-test itself), and that's
just fine as it e.g. allowed us easily to do things like upgrading
from taus88 to taus113.

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part V
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code
What is in this fifth patch set:
- Added GRO checksum validation functions
- Call the GRO validations functions from TCP and GRE gro_receive
- Perform checksum verification in the UDP gro_receive path using
GRO functions and add support for gro_receive in UDP6
Changes in V2:
- Change ip_summed to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead of moving it
to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE from GRO checksum validation. This avoids
performance penalty in checksumming bytes which are before the header
GRO is at.
Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

net: Allow raw buffers to be passed into the flow dissector.
Drivers, and perhaps other entities we have not yet considered,
sometimes want to know how deep the protocol headers go before
deciding how large of an SKB to allocate and how much of the packet to
place into the linear SKB area.
For example, consider a driver which has a device which DMAs into
pools of pages and then tells the driver where the data went in the
DMA descriptor(s). The driver can then build an SKB and reference
most of the data via SKB fragments (which are page/offset/length
triplets).
However at least some of the front of the packet should be placed into
the linear SKB area, which comes before the fragments, so that packet
processing can get at the headers efficiently. The first thing each
protocol layer is going to do is a "pskb_may_pull()" so we might as
well aggregate as much of this as possible while we're building the
SKB in the driver.
Part of supporting this is that we don't have an SKB yet, so we want
to be able to let the flow dissector operate on a raw buffer in order
to compute the offset of the end of the headers.
So now we have a __skb_flow_dissect() which takes an explicit data

tipc: use message to abort connections when losing contact to node
In the current implementation, each 'struct tipc_node' instance keeps
a linked list of those ports/sockets that are connected to the node
represented by that struct. The purpose of this is to let the node
object know which sockets to alert when it loses contact with its peer
node, i.e., which sockets need to have their connections aborted.
This entails an unwanted direct reference from the node structure
back to the port/socket structure, and a need to grab port_lock
when we have to make an upcall to the port. We want to get rid of
this unecessary BH entry point into the socket, and also eliminate
its use of port_lock.
In this commit, we instead let the node struct keep list of "connected
socket" structs, which each represents a connected socket, but is
allocated independently by the node at the moment of connection. If
the node loses contact with its peer node, the list is traversed, and
a "connection abort" message is created for each entry in the list. The
message is sent to it respective connected socket using the ordinary
data path, and the receiving socket aborts its connections upon reception
of the message.
This enables us to get rid of the direct reference from 'struct node' to
´struct port', and another unwanted BH access point to the latter.

tipc: use pseudo message to wake up sockets after link congestion
The current link implementation keeps a linked list of blocked ports/
sockets that is populated when there is link congestion. The purpose
of this is to let the link know which users to wake up when the
congestion abates.
This adds unnecessary complexity to the data structure and the code,
since it forces us to involve the link each time we want to delete
a socket. It also forces us to grab the spinlock port_lock within
the scope of node_lock. We want to get rid of this direct dependence,
as well as the deadlock hazard resulting from the usage of port_lock.
In this commit, we instead let the link keep list of a "wakeup" pseudo
messages for use in such situations. Those messages are sent to the
pending sockets via the ordinary message reception path, and wake up
the socket's owner when they are received.
This enables us to get rid of the 'waiting_ports' linked lists in struct
tipc_port that manifest this direct reference. As a consequence, we can
eliminate another BH entry into the socket, and hence the need to grab
port_lock. This is a further step in our effort to remove port_lock

tcp: improve undo on timeout
Upon timeout, undo (via both timestamps/Eifel and DSACKs) was
disabled if any retransmits were still in flight. The concern was
perhaps that spurious retransmission sent in a previous recovery
episode may trigger DSACKs to falsely undo the current recovery.
However, this inadvertently misses undo opportunities (using either
TCP timestamps or DSACKs) when timeout occurs during a loss episode,
i.e. recurring timeouts or timeout during fast recovery. In these
cases some retransmissions will be in flight but we should allow
undo. Furthermore, we should only reset undo_marker and undo_retrans
upon timeout if we are starting a new recovery episode. Finally,
when we do reset our undo state, we now do so in a manner similar
to tcp_enter_recovery(), so that we require a DSACK for each of
the outstsanding retransmissions. This will achieve the original
goal by requiring that we receive the same number of DSACKs as
retransmissions.

Commit 7a9bc9b81a5b ("ipv4: Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible.")
introduced a short-circuit to avoid calling fib_validate_source when not
needed. That change took rp_filter into account, but not accept_local.
This resulted in a change of behaviour: with rp_filter and accept_local
off, incoming packets with a local address in the source field should be
dropped.
Here is how to reproduce the change pre/post 7a9bc9b81a5b commit:
-configure the same IPv4 address on hosts A and B.
-try to send an ARP request from B to A.
-The ARP request will be dropped before that commit, but accepted and answered
after that commit.
This adds a check for ACCEPT_LOCAL, to maintain full
fib validation in case it is 0. We also leave __fib_validate_source() earlier
when possible, based on the same check as fib_validate_source(), once the
accept_local stuff is verified.

hyperv: Increase the buffer length for netvsc_channel_cb()
When the buffer is too small for a packet from VMBus, a bigger buffer will be
allocated in netvsc_channel_cb() and retry reading the packet from VMBus.
Increasing this buffer size will reduce the retry overhead.

net: sctp: fix suboptimal edge-case on non-active active/retrans path selection
In SCTP, selection of active (T.ACT) and retransmission (T.RET)
transports is being done whenever transport control operations
(UP, DOWN, PF, ...) are engaged through sctp_assoc_control_transport().
Commits 4c47af4d5eb2 ("net: sctp: rework multihoming retransmission
path selection to rfc4960") and a7288c4dd509 ("net: sctp: improve
sctp_select_active_and_retran_path selection") have both improved
it towards a more fine-grained and optimal path selection.
Currently, the selection algorithm for T.ACT and T.RET is as follows:
1) Elect the two most recently used ACTIVE transports T1, T2 for
T.ACT, T.RET, where T.ACT<-T1 and T1 is most recently used
2) In case primary path T.PRI not in {T1, T2} but ACTIVE, set
T.ACT<-T.PRI and T.RET<-T1
3) If only T1 is ACTIVE from the set, set T.ACT<-T1 and T.RET<-T1
4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT<-best(T.PRI, T.RET, T3) where
T3 is the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.PRI
Prior to above commits, 4) was simply a camp on T.ACT<-T.PRI and
T.RET<-T.PRI, ignoring possible paths in PF. Camping on T.PRI is
still slightly suboptimal as it can lead to the following scenario:
T.PRI is permanently down, T2 is put briefly into PF state (e.g. due to
link flapping). Here, the first time transmission is sent over PF path
T2 as it's the only non-INACTIVE path, but the retransmitted data-chunks
are sent over the INACTIVE path T1 (T.PRI), which is not good.
After the patch, it's choosing better transports in both cases by
modifying step 4):
4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT_new<-best(T.ACT_old, T3) where T3 is
the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.ACT_new
This will still select a best possible path in PF if available (which
can also include T.PRI/T.RET), and set both T.ACT/T.RET to it.
In case sctp_assoc_control_transport() *just* put T.ACT_old into INACTIVE
as it transitioned from ACTIVE->PF->INACTIVE and stays in INACTIVE just
for a very short while before going back ACTIVE, it will guarantee that
this path will be reselected for T.ACT/T.RET since T3 (PF) is not
available.
Previously, this was not possible, as we would only select between T.PRI
and T.RET, and a possible T3 would be NULL due to the fact that we have
just transitioned T3 in sctp_assoc_control_transport() from PF->INACTIVE
and would select a suboptimal path when T.PRI/T.RET have worse properties.
In the case that T.ACT_old permanently went to INACTIVE during this
transition and there's no PF path available, plus T.PRI and T.RET are
INACTIVE as well, we would now camp on T.ACT_old, but if everything is
being INACTIVE there's really not much we can do except hoping for a
successful HB to bring one of the transports back up again and, thus
cause a new selection through sctp_assoc_control_transport().

openvswitch: fix panic with multiple vlan headers
When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first
one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the
skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI
and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it
does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is
executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci.
This leads to two things:
1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the
skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci
is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID.
2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it.
mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

net: fec: ptp: avoid register access when ipg clock is disabled
The current kernel hang on i.MX6SX with rootfs mount from MMC.
The root cause is that ptp uses a periodic timer to access enet register
even if ipg clock is disabled.
FEC ptp driver start one period timer to read 1588 counter register in the
ptp init function that is called after FEC driver is probed.
To save power, after FEC probe finish, FEC driver disable all clocks including
ipg clock that is needed for register access.
i.MX5x, i.MX6q/dl/sl FEC register access don't cause system hang when ipg clock
is disabled, just return zero value. But for i.MX6sx SOC, it cause system hang.
To avoid the issue, we need to check ptp clock status before ptp timer count access.
