fib_rules: fix suppressor names and default values
This change brings the suppressor attribute names into line; it also changes
the data types to provide a more consistent interface.
While -1 indicates that the suppressor is not enabled, values >= 0 for
suppress_prefixlen or suppress_ifgroup reject routing decisions violating the
constraint.
This changes the previously presented behaviour of suppress_prefixlen, where a
prefix length _less_ than the attribute value was rejected. After this change,
a prefix length less than *or* equal to the value is considered a violation of
the rule constraint.
It also changes the default values for default and newly added rules (disabling
any suppression for those).

Merge branch 'bond_neigh_parms'
Veaceslav Falico says:
====================
Recent patches revealed an old bug, which was there for quite awhile. It's
related to vlan on top of bonding and ndo_neigh_setup(). When vlan device
is initiated, it calls its real_dev->ndo_neigh_setup(), and in case of
bonding - it will modify neigh_parms->neigh_setup to point to
bond_neigh_init, while neigh_parms are of vlan's dev.
This way, when neigh_parms->neigh_setup() of vlan's dev is called, the
bonding function will be called, which expects the dev to be struct
bonding, but will receive a vlan dev.
It was hidden before because of bond->first_slave usage. Now, with
Nikolay's conversion to list/RCU, first_slave is gone and we hit a null
pointer dereference when working with lists/slave.
First patch moves ndo_neigh_setup() in neigh_parms_alloc() to the bottom,
so that the ->dev will be available to the caller. It doesn't really change
anything, however is needed for the second patch.
Second patch makes bond_neigh_setup() (bond->ndo_neigh_setup()) check if
the neigh_parms are really from a bonding dev, and only modify the
neigh_setup in this case.

Merge branch 'bond_rcu'
Nikolay Aleksandrov says:
====================
This patchset aims to lay the groundwork, and do the initial conversion to
RCUism. I decided that it'll be much better to make the bonding RCU
conversion gradual, so patches can be reviewed and tested better rather
than having one huge patch (which I did in the beginning, before this).
The first patch is straightforward and it converts the bonding to the
standard list API, simplifying a lot of code, removing unnecessary local
variables and allowing to use the nice rculist API later. It also takes
care of some minor styling issues (re-arranging local variables longest ->
shortest, removing brackets for single statement if/else, leaving new line
before return statement etc.).
The second patch simplifies the conversion by removing unnecessary
read_lock(&bond->curr_slave_lock) in xmit paths that are to be converted
later, because we only care if the pointer is NULL or a slave there, since
we already have bond->lock the slave can't go away.
The third patch simplifies the broadcast xmit function by removing
the use of curr_active_slave and converting to standard list API. Also this
design of the broadcast xmit function avoids a subtle double packet tx race
when converted to RCU.
The fourth patch factors out the code that transmits skb through a slave
with given id (i.e. rr_tx_counter in rr mode, hashed value in xor mode) and
simplifies the active-backup xmit path because bond_dev_queue_xmit always
consumes the skb. The new bond_xmit_slave_id function is used in rr and xor
modes currently, but the plans are to use it in 3ad mode as well thus it's
made global. I've left the function prototype to be 81 chars so I wouldn't
break it, if this is an issue I can always break it in more lines.
The fifth patch introduces RCU by converting attach/detach and release to
RCU. It also converts dereferencing of curr_active_slave to rcu_dereference
although it's not fully converted to RCU, that is needed for the converted
xmit paths. And it converts roundrobin, broadcast, xor and active-backup
xmit paths to RCU. The 3ad and ALB/TLB modes acquire read_lock(&bond->lock)
to make sure that no slave will be removed and to sync properly with
enslave and release as before.
This way for the price of a little complexity, we'll be able to convert
individual parts of the bonding to RCU, and test them easier in the
process. If this patchset is accepted in some form, I'll post followups
in the next weeks that gradually convert the bonding to RCU and remove the
need for the rwlocks.
For performance notes please refer to patch 5 (RCU conversion one).

This patch does the initial bonding conversion to RCU. After it the
following modes are protected by RCU alone: roundrobin, active-backup,
broadcast and xor. Modes ALB/TLB and 3ad still acquire bond->lock for
reading, and will be dealt with later. curr_active_slave needs to be
dereferenced via rcu in the converted modes because the only thing
protecting the slave after this patch is rcu_read_lock, so we need the
proper barrier for weakly ordered archs and to make sure we don't have
stale pointer. It's not tagged with __rcu yet because there's still work
to be done to remove the curr_slave_lock, so sparse will complain when
rcu_assign_pointer and rcu_dereference are used, but the alternative to use
rcu_dereference_protected would've created much bigger code churn which is
more difficult to test and review. That will be converted in time.

valid slave which we use (and can't get away), or it is NULL which is
checked.
In some places the read_lock of curr_slave_lock was left because we need
it not to change while performing some action (e.g. syncing current
active slave's addresses, sending ARP requests through the active slave)
such cases will be dealt with individually while converting to RCU.

bnx2x: Revising locking scheme for MAC configuration
On very rare occasions, repeated load/unload stress test in the presence of
our storage driver (bnx2i/bnx2fc) causes a kernel panic in bnx2x code
(NULL pointer dereference). Stack traces indicate the issue happens during MAC
configuration; thorough code review showed that indeed several races exist
in which one thread can iterate over the list of configured MACs while another
deletes entries from the same list.
This patch adds a varient on the single-writer/Multiple-reader lock mechanism -
It utilizes an already exsiting bottom-half lock, using it so that Whenever
a writer is unable to continue due to the existence of another writer/reader,
it pends its request for future deliverance.
The writer / last readers will check for the existence of such requests and
perform them instead of the original initiator.
This prevents the writer from having to sleep while waiting for the lock
to be accessible, which might cause deadlocks given the locks already
held by the writer.
Another result of this patch is that setting of Rx Mode is now made in
sleepable context - Setting of Rx Mode is made under a bottom-half lock, which
was always nontrivial for the bnx2x driver, as the HW/FW configuration requires
wait for completions.
Since sleep was impossible (due to the sleepless-context), various mechanisms
were utilized to prevent the calling thread from sleep, but the truth was that
when the caller thread (i.e, the one calling ndo_set_rx_mode()) returned, the
Rx mode was still not set in HW/FW.
bnx2x_set_rx_mode() will now overtly schedule for the Rx changes to be
configured by the sp_rtnl_task which hold the RTNL lock and is sleepable

After commit 4aa5dee4d9 ("net: convert resend IGMP to notifier event")
we try to acquire rtnl in bond_resend_igmp_join_requests but it can be

rtnl_trylock fails each time since it's being already held.
For me this issue leads to system hangs very easy:
modprobe bonding; ifconfig bond0 up; ifenslave bond0 eth0; rmmod
bonding;
The fix is to introduce a small (1 jiffy) delay which is enough for the
sections holding rtnl to finish without putting any strain on the system.
Also adjust the timer in bond_change_active_slave to be 1 jiffy, since
most of the time it's called with rtnl already held.

fib_rules: add .suppress operation
This change adds a new operation to the fib_rules_ops struct; it allows the
suppression of routing decisions if certain criteria are not met by its
results.
The first implemented constraint is a minimum prefix length added to the
structures of routing rules. If a rule is added with a minimum prefix length
>0, only routes meeting this threshold will be considered. Any other (more
general) routing table entries will be ignored.
When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it
is often convinient to reference the main routing table multiple times - but
omitting the default route. Using this patch and a modified "ip" utility, this
can be achieved by using the following command sequence:
$ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1
$ ip rule add pref 100 table main prefixlength 1
$ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink
With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing
table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can
be found. By using a minimal prefixlength of 1, the default route (/0) of the
table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule 100; packets traveling to
destinations with more specific routing entries are processed as usual.

netem: Introduce skb_orphan_partial() helper

As all tcp packets are orphaned by netem, TCP stack believes it can

In order to allow producers to send more packets, we want to
keep sk_wmem_alloc from reaching sk_sndbuf limit.
We can do that by accounting one byte per skb in netem queues,
so that TCP stack is not fooled too much.
Tested:
With above MQ/netem setup, scaling number of concurrent flows gives
linear results and no reorders/retransmits
Current net name space has only one genid for both IPv4 and IPv6, it has below
drawbacks:
- Add/delete an IPv4 address will invalidate all IPv6 routing table entries.
- Insert/remove XFRM policy will also invalidate both IPv4/IPv6 routing table
entries even when the policy is only applied for one address family.
Thus, this patch attempt to split one genid for two to cater for IPv4 and IPv6

====================
This series contains updates to ixgbe and pci.
The first patch for ixgbe from Greg Rose is the second submission. The
first submission of "ixgbe: Retain VLAN filtering in promiscuous + VT
mode" had a typo, which Joe Perches pointed out and is fixed in this
submission.
Alex updates the ixgbe driver to use the generic helper pci_vfs_assigned
instead of the driver specific function ixgbe_vfs_are_assigned.
Don Skidmore provides 4 patches for ixgbe, the first being a fix for
flow control ethtool reporting. Originally ixgbe_device_supports_autoneg_fc()
was expected to be called by only copper devices, which lead to false
information being displayed via ethtool. Two other patches add support
for fixed fiber for SFP+ devices and the addition of a quad-port x520
adapter. The last patch simply bumps the driver version.
Emil Tantilov provides 3 fixes for ixgbe, two of which resolve
semaphore lock issues. The third fix resolves several issues in the
previous implementation of the SFF data dumps of SFP+ modules.
The remaining ixgbe and pci patches are from Jacob Keller. The pci
patches exposes bus speed, link speed and bus width so that drivers
can take advantage of this information. In addition, adds a pci function
which obtains minimum link width and speed. Jacob also provides the
ixgbe patch to incorporate the pci function. He provides a patch that
fixes a lockdep issue created due to ixgbe_ptp_stop always running
cancel_work_sync even if the work item had not been created properly with
INIT_WORK. This issue was found and reported by Stephen Hemminger.

====================
This patchset is based on patch by Narendra_K@Dell.com
Once device which can change phys port id during its lifetime adopts this,
NETDEV_CHANGEPHYSPORTID event will be added and driver will call
call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_NETDEV_CHANGEPHYSPORTID, dev) to propagate
the change to userspace.

v5->v6: use uuid_le_gen for generating 16-byte phys port id for igb/igbvf
as suggested by BenH
1) Why do we need this, and why do existing facilities fail to provide
a way to accomplish this?
Currenty there's very hard to tell if two netdevs are using the same physical
port. For sr-iov this can be get by sysfs. For other mechanisms, like NPAR
there's very hard to do it (one must learn it from NIC BIOS). But even for
sr-iov there's no way to say if two netdevs are using the same phys port when
these are passed through to virtual guests.
This patchset provides the generic way of letting this information know to
userspace. This info can be used by apps like NetworkManager, teamd, Wicked,
ovs daemon, etc, to do smarter bonding decisions.
2) Why is the physical port ID defined as a 32 byte opaque cookie?
What formats and layouts need to be accomodated, and which
influenced the design of the ID?
For user to distinguish if two netdevs are using the same port, he only needs
to compare their phys port ids. Nothing else is needed. This id has no
structure for security reasons. VF should not know anything about PF.
3) Are IDs globally unique? Why or why not? If IDs should be
globally unique, but only in certain cases, what exactly are those
cases.
Most of the time only uniqueness needed is in scope of single machine.
There might be case when the id should be unique between couple of machines
in virtualization environment. Given that for example for igb/igbvf 16B uuid
is used, there is no problem for this case as well. But each driver can
implement this differently focusing the hw capabilities and needs.

The macros used for the various fields of the RX and TX descriptions
are currently declared next to those fields within the structure
definitions of the RX and TX descriptors.
However, in order to support big endian, we'll have to use the "swap
descriptors" features of the hardware, which swaps every byte within
each 64 bits word of the descriptors. This requires a separate
definition of the RX and TX descriptor structures for little and big
endian, as is done in the mv643xx_eth. Those macros can therefore no
longer be defined inside those structures.

pktgen: Require CONFIG_INET due to use of IPv4 checksum function
Unlike for IPv6, the IPv4 checksum functions are only available
if CONFIG_INET is set.

be2net: don't use dev_err when AER enabling fails
The driver uses dev_err when enabling of AER fails (e.g. PCIe AER is not
supported). The dev_info is more appropriate to avoid console pollution.
