bridge: fix setlink/dellink notifications
problems with bridge getlink/setlink notifications today:
- bridge setlink generates two notifications to userspace
- one from the bridge driver
- one from rtnetlink.c (rtnl_bridge_notify)
- dellink generates one notification from rtnetlink.c. Which
means bridge setlink and dellink notifications are not
consistent
- Looking at the code it appears,
If both BRIDGE_FLAGS_MASTER and BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF were set,
the size calculation in rtnl_bridge_notify can be wrong.
Example: if you set both BRIDGE_FLAGS_MASTER and BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF
in a setlink request to rocker dev, rtnl_bridge_notify will
allocate skb for one set of bridge attributes, but,
both the bridge driver and rocker dev will try to add
attributes resulting in twice the number of attributes
being added to the skb. (rocker dev calls ndo_dflt_bridge_getlink)
There are multiple options:
1) Generate one notification including all attributes from master and self:
But, I don't think it will work, because both master and self may use
the same attributes/policy. Cannot pack the same set of attributes in a
single notification from both master and slave (duplicate attributes).
2) Generate one notification from master and the other notification from
self (This seems to be ideal):
For master: the master driver will send notification (bridge in this
example)
For self: the self driver will send notification (rocker in the above
example. It can use helpers from rtnetlink.c to do so. Like the
ndo_dflt_bridge_getlink api).
This patch implements 2) (leaving the 'rtnl_bridge_notify' around to be used
with 'self').
v1->v2 :
- rtnl_bridge_notify is now called only for self,
so, remove 'BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF' check and cleanup a few things
- rtnl_bridge_dellink used to always send a RTM_NEWLINK msg
earlier. So, I have changed the notification from br_dellink to
go as RTM_NEWLINK

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-01-16
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
This series is a little bit larger than normal because two of the patches are
version bumps.
Shannon provides tweaks to i40e and i40evf to keep the firmware, software
and silicon validation in line together by removing unused and
deprecated code, adding define for iSCSI and fix queue mask size. Fix
i40e so we do not give up in the reset/rebuild process if DCB setup
fails, just handle it the same as in the probe setup. Cleans up PTP
log messages by removing the use of __func__ as we are not using that
any longer and removes the netdev name, since that can change and can
be misleading. Adds struct size checks to indirect and command
structs that were left out previously. Added admin queue API updates
(LLDP control, OEM OCSD and OCBB commands).
Kevin increases ASQ timeout for scenarios with multi-function devices.
Carolyn fixes a problem where the interrupts descriptions from the MSIx
configuration were truncating the needed bus info, which makes it hard
to distinguish configurations from port to port. Increased the string
buffer size in order to allow the full data to be displayed.
Sravanthi cleans up the dump stats string from debugfs.
Jacob updates i40e to only enable the PTP interrupt in PFs which have PTP
enabled, instead of blindly enabling the PTP interrupt flags for all PFs.
Also updated i40e so that we do not do Tx or Rx timestamps if we do not
have PTP enabled. Added the same check against pf->ptp_rx as we have
in Rx timestamp code path because it is possible that the user can
configure only Tx hardware timestamping so we do not want to check for
Rx timestamp hang since the software won't be handling them.
Neerav updates the driver to disable firmware LLDP agent for NICs with
a firmware version lower than v4.3 and added a message when this happens.
Adds parsing and reporting of iSCSI capability for a given device or
function, as well as adding support for iSCSI partition type with DCB
in NPAR mode.
v2:
- Dropped patch 10 "i40e: clean up PTP log messages" based on feedback
from David Laight and David Miller
- Split up the original patch 13 "i40e: AQ API updates for new commands"

Hence, the patch enables querying of DCB configuration in MFP mode and
configures TCs for iSCSI partition type.

the port may have multiple TCs enabled and hence I40E_FLAG_DCB_ENABLED
will be set/reset on all the partitions based on number of TCs on the
port. This is required as in DCB environment it is expected that all

rhashtable: Fix race in rhashtable_destroy() and use regular work_struct
When we put our declared work task in the global workqueue with
schedule_delayed_work(), its delay parameter is always zero.
Therefore, we should define a regular work in rhashtable structure
instead of a delayed work.
By the way, we add a condition to check whether resizing functions
are NULL before cancelling the work, avoiding to cancel an
uninitialized work.
Lastly, while we wait for all work items we submitted before to run
to completion with cancel_delayed_work(), ht->mutex has been taken in
rhashtable_destroy(). Moreover, cancel_delayed_work() doesn't return
until all work items are accomplished, and when work items are
scheduled, the work's function - rht_deferred_worker() will be called.
However, as rht_deferred_worker() also needs to acquire the lock,
deadlock might happen at the moment as the lock is already held before.
So if the cancel work function is moved out of the lock covered scope,
this will avoid the deadlock.

vxlan: Group Policy extension
Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped
to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context
using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
tc, etc.
The group membership is defined by the lower 16 bits of skb->mark, the
upper 16 bits are used for flags.
SELinux allows to manage label to secure local resources. However,
distributed applications require ACLs to implemented across hosts. This
is typically achieved by matching on L2-L4 fields to identify the
original sending host and process on the receiver. On top of that,
netlabel and specifically CIPSO [1] allow to map security contexts to
universal labels. However, netlabel and CIPSO are relatively complex.
This patch provides a lightweight alternative for overlay network
environments with a trusted underlay. No additional control protocol
is required.

Backwards compatibility:
A VXLAN-GBP socket can receive standard VXLAN frames and will assign
the default group 0x0000 to such frames. A Linux VXLAN socket will
drop VXLAN-GBP frames. The extension is therefore disabled by default
and needs to be specifically enabled:
ip link add [...] type vxlan [...] gbp
In a mixed environment with VXLAN and VXLAN-GBP sockets, the GBP socket
must run on a separate port number.
Examples:
iptables:
host1# iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 101 -j MARK --set-mark 0x200

net: Remote checksum offload for VXLAN
This patch set adds support for remote checksum offload in VXLAN.
The remote checksum offload is generalized by creating a common
function (remcsum_adjust) that does the work of modifying the
checksum in remote checksum offload. This function can be called
from normal or GRO path. GUE was modified to use this function.
To support RCO is VXLAN we use the 9th bit in the reserved
flags to indicated remote checksum offload. The start and offset
values are encoded n a compressed form in the low order (reserved)
byte of the vni field.
Remote checksum offload is described in
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-01
Changes in v2:
- Add udp_offload_callbacks which has GRO functions that take a
udp_offload pointer argument. This argument can be used to retrieve
a per port structure of the encapsulation for use in gro processing
(mostly by doing container_of on the structure).
- Use the 10th bit in VXLAN flags for RCO which does not seem to
conflict with other proposals at this time (ie. VXLAN-GPE and
VXLAN-GPB)
- Require that RCO must be explicitly enabled on the receiver
as well as the sender.
Tested by running 200 TCP_STREAM connections with VXLAN (over IPv4).

vxlan: Remote checksum offload
Add support for remote checksum offload in VXLAN. This uses a
reserved bit to indicate that RCO is being done, and uses the low order
reserved eight bits of the VNI to hold the start and offset values in a
compressed manner.
Start is encoded in the low order seven bits of VNI. This is start >> 1
so that the checksum start offset is 0-254 using even values only.
Checksum offset (transport checksum field) is indicated in the high
order bit in the low order byte of the VNI. If the bit is set, the
checksum field is for UDP (so offset = start + 6), else checksum
field is for TCP (so offset = start + 16). Only TCP and UDP are
supported in this implementation.

When roaming / suspending, it makes no sense to wait until
the transmit queues of the device are empty. In extreme
condition they can be starved (VO saturating the air), but
even in regular cases, it is pointless to delay the roaming
because the low level driver is trying to send packets to
an AP which is far away. We'd rather drop these packets and
let TCP retransmit if needed. This will allow to speed up
the roaming.
For suspend, the explanation is even more trivial.

v13:
- Fix the problem of alignment parameters for function and checkpatch warming.
v12:
- According Alex's suggestion, modify the changelog and add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE
for hip04 ethernet.
v11:
- Add ethtool support for tx coalecse getting and setting, the xmit_more
is not supported for this patch, but I think it could work for hip04,
will support it later after some tests for performance better.
Here are some performance test results by ping and iperf(add tx_coalesce_frames/users),
it looks that the performance and latency is more better by tx_coalesce_frames/usecs.
v10:
- According Arnd's suggestion, remove the skb_orphan and use the hrtimer
for the cleanup of the TX queue and add some modification for the hip04
drivers.
1) drop the broken skb_orphan call
2) drop the workqueue
3) batch cleanup based on tx_coalesce_frames/usecs for better throughput
4) use a reasonable default tx timeout (200us, could be shorted
based on measurements) with a range timer
5) fix napi poll function return value
6) use a lockless queue for cleanup
v9:
- There is no tx completion interrupts to free DMAd Tx packets, it means taht
we rely on new tx packets arriving to run the destructors of completed packets,
which open up space in their sockets's send queues. Sometimes we don't get such
new packets causing Tx to stall, a single UDP transmitter is a good example of
this situation, so we need a clean up workqueue to reclaims completed packets,
the workqueue will only free the last packets which is already stay for several jiffies.
Also fix some format cleanups.
v8:
- Use poll to reclaim xmitted buffer as workaround since no tx done interrupt
v7:
- Remove select NET_CORE in 0002
v6:
- Suggest by Russell: Use netdev_sent_queue & netdev_completed_queue to solve latency issue
Also shorten the period of timer, which is used to wakeup the queue since no
tx completed interrupt.
v5:
- no big change, fix typo
v4:
- Modify accoringly to the suggetion from Arnd, Florian, Eric, David
Use of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args & syscon_node_to_regmap get ppe info
Add skb_orphan() and tx_timer for reclaim since no tx_finished interrupt
Update timeout, and move of_phy_connect to probe to reuse open/stop
v3:
- Suggest from Arnd, use syscon & regmap_write/read to replace static void __iomem *ppebase.
Modify hisilicon-hip04-net.txt accrordingly to suggestion from Florian and Sergei.
v2:

net: hisilicon: new hip04 ethernet driver
Support Hisilicon hip04 ethernet driver, including 100M / 1000M controller.
The controller has no tx done interrupt, reclaim xmitted buffer in the poll.
v13: Fix the problem of alignment parameters for function and checkpatch warming.
v12: According Alex's suggestion, modify the changelog and add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE
for hip04 ethernet.
v11: Add ethtool support for tx coalecse getting and setting, the xmit_more
is not supported for this patch, but I think it could work for hip04,
will support it later after some tests for performance better.
Here are some performance test results by ping and iperf(add tx_coalesce_frames/users),
it looks that the performance and latency is more better by tx_coalesce_frames/usecs.
v10: According David Miller and Arnd Bergmann's suggestion, add some modification
for v9 version
- drop the workqueue
- batch cleanup based on tx_coalesce_frames/usecs for better throughput
- use a reasonable default tx timeout (200us, could be shorted
based on measurements) with a range timer
- fix napi poll function return value
- use a lockless queue for cleanup

neighbour: fix base_reachable_time(_ms) not effective immediatly when changed
When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a
specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time
value is not updated.
This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the
old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which
recomputes the value every 300*HZ).
On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before
the change is effective.
This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after
each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms.
The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer
is triggered.
Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl
handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network
code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes
reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue.
Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must
refresh reachable_time.

net: fec: fix MDIO bus assignement for dual fec SoC's
On i.MX28, the MDIO bus is shared between the two FEC instances.
The driver makes sure that the second FEC uses the MDIO bus of the
first FEC. This is done conditionally if FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is set.
However, in newer designs, such as Vybrid or i.MX6SX, each FEC MAC
has its own MDIO bus. Simply removing the quirk FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC
is not an option since other logic, triggered by this quirk, is
still needed.
Furthermore, there are board designs which use the same MDIO bus
for both PHY's even though the second bus would be available on the
SoC side. Such layout are popular since it saves pins on SoC side.
Due to the above quirk, those boards currently do work fine. The
boards in the mainline tree with such a layout are:
- Freescale Vybrid Tower with TWR-SER2 (vf610-twr.dts)
- Freescale i.MX6 SoloX SDB Board (imx6sx-sdb.dts)
This patch adds a new quirk FEC_QUIRK_SINGLE_MDIO for i.MX28, which
makes sure that the MDIO bus of the first FEC is used in any case.
However, the boards above do have a SoC with a MDIO bus for each FEC
instance. But the PHY's are not connected in a 1:1 configuration. A
proper device tree description is needed to allow the driver to
figure out where to find its PHY. This patch fixes that shortcoming
by adding a MDIO bus child node to the first FEC instance, along
with the two PHY's on that bus, and making use of the phy-handle
property to add a reference to the PHY's.

net/macb: improved ethtool statistics support
Currently `ethtool -S` simply returns "no stats available". It
would be more useful to see what the various ethtool statistics
registers' values are. This change implements get_ethtool_stats,
get_strings, and get_sset_count functions to accomplish this.
Read all GEM statistics registers and sum them into
macb.ethtool_stats. Add the necessary infrastructure to make this
accessible via `ethtool -S`.
Update gem_update_stats to utilize ethtool_stats.
