====================
The huawei_cdc_ncm driver.
Enrico has been kind enough to let me repost his driver with the changes
requested by Oliver Neukum during the last review of this series.
The changes I have made from Enricos original v5 series to this version
are:
v6:
- fix to avoid corrupting drvstate->pmcount
- fix error return value from huawei_cdc_ncm_suspend()
- drop redundant testing for subdriver->suspend during resume
- broke a few lines to keep within the 80 columns recommendation
- rebased on top of current net-next
Enrico's orginal introduction to the v5 series follows below. It explains
the background much better than I can.
Bjørn
[quote Enrico Mioso]
So this is a new, revised, edition of the huawei_cdc_ncm.c driver, which
supports devices resembling the NCM standard, but using it also as a mean
to encapsulate other protocols, as is the case for the Huawei E3131 and
E3251 modem devices.
Some precisations are needed however - and I encourage discussion on this: and
that's why I'm sending this message with a broader CC.
Merging those patches might change:
- the way Modem Manager interacts with those devices
- some regressions might be possible if there are some unknown firmware
variants around (Franko?)
First of all: I observed the behaviours of two devices.
Huawei E3131: this device doesn't accept NDIS setup requests unless they're
sent via the embedded AT channel exposed by this driver.
So actually we gain funcionality in this case!
The second case, is the Huawei E3251: which works with standard NCM driver,
still exposing an AT embedded channel. Whith this patch set applied, you gain
some funcionality, loosing the ability to catch standard NCM events for now.
The device will work in both ways with no problems, but this has to be
acknowledged and discussed. Might be we can develop this driver further to
change this, when more devices are tested.
We where thinking Huawei changed their interfaces on new devices - but probably
this driver only works around a nice firmware bug present in E3131, which
prevented the modem from being used in NDIS mode.
I think committing this is definitely wortth-while, since it will allow for
more Huawei devices to be used without serial connection. Some devices like the
E3251 also, reports some status information only via the embedded AT channel,
at least in my case.
Note: I'm not subscribed to any list except the Modem Manager's one, so please
CC me, thanks!!

somewhat different so there was quite a lot of changes in ath10k for
this.
Michal and Sujith did some performance improvements in ath10k. Vladimir
fixed a compiler warning and Fengguang removed an extra semicolon."
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"It's a fairly big one, with the following highlights:
- NFC digital layer implementation: Most NFC chipsets implement the NFC
digital layer in firmware, but others have more basic functionalities
and expect the host to implement the digital layer. This layer sits
below the NFC core.
- Sony's port100 support: This is "soft" NFC USB dongle that expects the
digital layer to be implemented on the host. This is the first user of
our NFC digital stack implementation.
- Secure element API: We now provide a netlink API for enabling,
disabling and discovering NFC attached (embedded or UICC ones) secure
elements. With some userspace help, this allows us to support NFC
payments.
Only the pn544 driver currently supports that API.
- NCI SPI fixes and improvements: In order to support NCI devices over
SPI, we fixed and improved our NCI/SPI implementation. The currently
most deployed NFC NCI chipset, Broadcom's bcm2079x, supports that mode
and we're planning to use our NCI/SPI framework to implement a
driver for it.
- pn533 fragmentation support in target mode: This was the only missing
feature from our pn533 impementation. We now support fragmentation in
both Tx and Rx modes, in target mode."

tcp: properly handle stretch acks in slow start
Slow start now increases cwnd by 1 if an ACK acknowledges some packets,
regardless the number of packets. Consequently slow start performance
is highly dependent on the degree of the stretch ACKs caused by
receiver or network ACK compression mechanisms (e.g., delayed-ACK,
GRO, etc). But slow start algorithm is to send twice the amount of
packets of packets left so it should process a stretch ACK of degree
N as if N ACKs of degree 1, then exits when cwnd exceeds ssthresh. A
follow up patch will use the remainder of the N (if greater than 1)
to adjust cwnd in the congestion avoidance phase.
In addition this patch retires the experimental limited slow start
(LSS) feature. LSS has multiple drawbacks but questionable benefit. The
fractional cwnd increase in LSS requires a loop in slow start even
though it's rarely used. Configuring such an increase step via a global
sysctl on different BDPS seems hard. Finally and most importantly the
slow start overshoot concern is now better covered by the Hybrid slow

net/mlx4_core: Fix quota handling in the QUERY_FUNC_CAP wrapper
In current kernels, the mlx4 driver running on a VM does not
differentiate between max resource numbers for the HCA and
max quotas -- it simply takes the quota values passed to it
as max-resource values.
However, the driver actually requires the VFs to be aware of
the actual number of resources that the HCA was initialized with,
for QPs, CQs, SRQs and MPTs.
For QPs, CQs and SRQs, the reason is that in completion handling
the driver must know which of the 24 bits are the actual resource
number, and which are "padding" bits.
For MPTs, also, the driver assumes knowledge of the number of MPTs
in the system.
The previous commit fixes the quota logic on the VM for the quota values
passed to it by QUERY_FUNC_CAPS.
For QPs, CQs, SRQs, and MPTs, it takes the max resource numbers
from QUERY_HCA (and not QUERY_FUNC_CAPS). The quotas passed
in QUERY_FUNC_CAPS are used to report max resource number values
in the response to ib_query_device.
However, the Hypervisor driver must consider that VMs
may be running previous kernels, and compatibility must be preserved.
To resolve the incompatibility with previous kernels running on VMs,
we deprecated the quota fields in mlx4_QUERY_FUNC_CAP. In the
deprecated fields, we pass the max-resource values from INIT_HCA
The quota fields are moved to a new location, and the current kernel
driver takes the proper values from that location. There is
also a new flag in dword 0, bit 28 of the mlx4_QUERY_FUNC_CAP mailbox;
if this flag is set, the (VM) driver takes the quota values from the
new location.
VMs running previous kernels will work properly, except that the max resource
numbers reported in ib_query_device for these resources will be
too high. The Hypervisor driver will, however, enforce the quotas
for these VMs.

mlx4: Structures and init/teardown for VF resource quotas
This is step #1 for implementing SRIOV resource quotas for VFs.
Quotas are implemented per resource type for VFs and the PF, to prevent
any entity from simply grabbing all the resources for itself and leaving
the other entities unable to obtain such resources.
Resources which are allocated using quotas: QPs, CQs, SRQs, MPTs, MTTs, MAC,
VLAN, and Counters.
The quota system works as follows:
Each entity (VF or PF) is given a max number of a given resource (its quota),
and a guaranteed minimum number for each resource (starvation prevention).
For QPs, CQs, SRQs, MPTs and MTTs:
50% of the available quantity for the resource is divided equally among
the PF and all the active VFs (i.e., the number of VFs in the mlx4_core module
parameter "num_vfs"). This 50% represents the "guaranteed minimum" pool.
The other 50% is the "free pool", allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis.
For each VF/PF, resources are first allocated from its "guaranteed-minimum"
pool. When that pool is exhausted, the driver attempts to allocate from
the resource "free-pool".
The quota (i.e., max) for the VFs and the PF is:
The free-pool amount (50% of the real max) + the guaranteed minimum
For MACs:
Guarantee 2 MACs per VF/PF per port. As a result, since we have only
128 MACs per port, reduce the allowable number of VFs from 64 to 63.
Any remaining MACs are put into a free pool.
For VLANs:
For the PF, the per-port quota is 128 and guarantee is 64
(to allow the PF to register at least a VLAN per VF in VST mode).
For the VFs, the per-port quota is 64 and the guarantee is 0.
We assume that VGT VFs are trusted not to abuse the VLAN resource.
For Counters:
For all functions (PF and VFs), the quota is 128 and the guarantee is 0.
In this patch, we define the needed structures, which are added to the
resource-tracker struct. In addition, we do initialization
for the resource quota, and adjust the query_device response to use quotas
rather than resource maxima.
As part of the implementation, we introduce a new field in
mlx4_dev: quotas. This field holds the resource quotas used
to report maxima to the upper layers (ib_core, via query_device).
The HCA maxima of these values are passed to the VFs (via
QUERY_HCA) so that they may continue to use these in handling
QPs, CQs, SRQs and MPTs.

net/mlx4_core: Don't fail reg/unreg vlan for older guests
In upstream kernels under SRIOV, the vlan register/unregister calls
were NOPs (doing nothing and returning OK). We detect these old
calls from guests (via the comm channel), since previously the
port number in mlx4_register_vlan was passed (improperly) in the
out_param. This has been corrected so that the port number is now
passed in bits 8..15 of the in_modifier field.
For old calls, these bits will be zero, so if the passed port
number is zero, we can still look at the out_param field to see
if it contains a valid port number. If yes, the VM is running
an old driver.
Since for old drivers, the register/unregister_vlan wrappers were
NOPs, we continue this policy -- the reason being that upstream
had an additional bug in eth driver running on guests (where
procedure mlx4_en_vlan_rx_kill_vid() had the following code:
if (!mlx4_find_cached_vlan(mdev->dev, priv->port, vid, &idx))
mlx4_unregister_vlan(mdev->dev, priv->port, idx);
else
en_err(priv, "could not find vid %d in cache\n", vid);
On a VM, mlx4_find_cached_vlan() will always fail, since the
vlan cache is located on the Hypervisor; on guests it is empty.
Therefore, if we allow upstream guests to register vlans, we will
have vlan leakage since the unregister will never be performed.
Leaving vlan reg/unreg for old guest drivers as a NOP is not a
feature regression, since in upstream the register/unregister
vlan wrapper is a NOP.

net: sctp: do not trigger BUG_ON in sctp_cmd_delete_tcb
Introduced in f9e42b853523 ("net: sctp: sideeffect: throw BUG if
primary_path is NULL"), we intended to find a buggy assoc that's
part of the assoc hash table with a primary_path that is NULL.
However, we better remove the BUG_ON for now and find a more
suitable place to assert for these things as Mark reports that
this also triggers the bug when duplication cookie processing
happens, and the assoc is not part of the hash table (so all
good in this case). Such a situation can for example easily be
reproduced by:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 2 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1
tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:2 handle 20: netem loss 20%
tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1: prio 2 u32 match ip \
protocol 132 0xff match u8 0x0b 0xff at 32 flowid 1:2
This drops 20% of COOKIE-ACK packets. After some follow-up
discussion with Vlad we came to the conclusion that for now we
should still better remove this BUG_ON() assertion, and come up
with two follow-ups later on, that is, i) find a more suitable
place for this assertion, and possibly ii) have a special
allocator/initializer for such kind of temporary assocs.

HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to
send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates
virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux

net: sctp: fix and consolidate SCTP checksumming code
This fixes an outstanding bug found through IPVS, where SCTP packets
with skb->data_len > 0 (non-linearized) and empty frag_list, but data
accumulated in frags[] member, are forwarded with incorrect checksum
letting SCTP initial handshake fail on some systems. Linearizing each
SCTP skb in IPVS to prevent that would not be a good solution as
this leads to an additional and unnecessary performance penalty on
the load-balancer itself for no good reason (as we actually only want
to update the checksum, and can do that in a different/better way
presented here).
The actual problem is elsewhere, namely, that SCTP's checksumming
in sctp_compute_cksum() does not take frags[] into account like
skb_checksum() does. So while we are fixing this up, we better reuse
the existing code that we have anyway in __skb_checksum() and use it
for walking through the data doing checksumming. This will not only
fix this issue, but also consolidates some SCTP code with core
sk_buff code, bringing it closer together and removing respectively
avoiding reimplementation of skb_checksum() for no good reason.
As crc32c() can use hardware implementation within the crypto layer,
we leave that intact (it wraps around / falls back to e.g. slice-by-8
algorithm in __crc32c_le() otherwise); plus use the __crc32c_le_combine()
combinator for crc32c blocks.
Also, we remove all other SCTP checksumming code, so that we only
have to use sctp_compute_cksum() from now on; for doing that, we need
to transform SCTP checkumming in output path slightly, and can leave
the rest intact.

ARC: Incorrect mm reference used in vmalloc fault handler

The reasons it worked so far is amazing:
1. By default (!SMP), vmalloc fault handler uses a cached value of PGD.

optimizations which are possible without ZLPs. Adding known
such devices to a whitelist, to avoid the possible negative
impact of the new spec violating default.

net: cdc_mbim: handle IPv6 Neigbor Solicitations
MBIM is a point-to-point protocol transporting raw IP packets
with no L2 headers. Only IPv4 and IPv6 are supported. ARP in
particular is not, which is quite logical given the lack of
L2 headers.
The driver still emulates an ethernet interface, dropping all
unsupported protocols, and avoiding neigbour resolving by
setting the IFF_NOARP flag.
The MBIM specification does not explicitly forbid IPv6 Neighbor
Discovery, and it seems the other OS support will respond to
Neighbor Solicitations on MBIM links. There are therefore
buggy devices out there, which despite the pointlessness, still
require Neighbor Discovery for IPv6 over MBIM.
This is incompatible with the IFF_NOARP flag which disables
both ARP and ND. We cannot support ARP in any case, so we
have to keep that flag. This patch implements a workaround
for the buggy devices, letting the driver respond directly
to Neighbor Solicitations from the device.
This is not optimal, but will have minimal effect on any sane
device.

Merge branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/klassert/ipsec
Steffen Klassert says:
====================
1) Fix a possible race on ipcomp scratch buffers because
of too early enabled siftirqs. From Michal Kubecek.
2) The current xfrm garbage collector threshold is too small
for some workloads, resulting in bad performance on these
workloads. Increase the threshold from 1024 to 32768.
3) Some codepaths might not have a dst_entry attached to the
skb when calling xfrm_decode_session(). So add a check
to prevent a null pointer dereference in this case.
