With sk_cookie we can identify a socket, that is very helpful for

So we'd better init it by default for inet socket.

tcp_rcv_space_adjust is called every time data is copied to user space,
introducing a tcp tracepoint for which could show us when the packet is
copied to user.
When a tcp packet arrives, tcp_rcv_established() will be called and with
the existed tracepoint tcp_probe we could get the time when this packet
arrives.
Then this packet will be copied to user, and tcp_rcv_space_adjust will
be called and with this new introduced tracepoint we could get the time
when this packet is copied to user.
With these two tracepoints, we could figure out whether the user program
processes this packet immediately or there's latency.
Hence in the printk message, sk_cookie is printed as a key to relate
tcp_rcv_space_adjust with tcp_probe.
Maybe we could export sockfd in this new tracepoint as well, then we
could relate this new tracepoint with epoll/read/recv* tracepoints, and
finally that could show us the whole lifespan of this packet. But we
could also implement that with pid as these functions are executed in
process context.

When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info
is set to the fib entry. The 'from' reference is used most notably for
cookie checking - making sure stale dst entries are updated if the
fib entry is changed.
When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing
the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to
happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely
manner.
There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
this race using rcu on from.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-04-21
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Initial work on BPF Type Format (BTF) is added, which is a meta
data format which describes the data types of BPF programs / maps.
BTF has its roots from CTF (Compact C-Type format) with a number
of changes to it. First use case is to provide a generic pretty
print capability for BPF maps inspection, later work will also
add BTF to bpftool. pahole support to convert dwarf to BTF will
be upstreamed as well (https://github.com/iamkafai/pahole/tree/btf),
from Martin.
2) Add a new xdp_bpf_adjust_tail() BPF helper for XDP that allows
for changing the data_end pointer. Only shrinking is currently
supported which helps for crafting ICMP control messages. Minor
changes in drivers have been added where needed so they recalc
the packet's length also when data_end was adjusted, from Nikita.
3) Improve bpftool to make it easier to feed hex bytes via cmdline
for map operations, from Quentin.
4) Add support for various missing BPF prog types and attach types
that have been added to kernel recently but neither to bpftool
nor libbpf yet. Doc and bash completion updates have been added
as well for bpftool, from Andrey.
5) Proper fix for avoiding to leak info stored in frame data on page
reuse for the two bpf_xdp_adjust_{head,meta} helpers by disallowing
to move the pointers into struct xdp_frame area, from Jesper.
6) Follow-up compile fix from BTF in order to include stdbool.h in
libbpf, from Björn.
7) Few fixes in BPF sample code, that is, a typo on the netdevice
in a comment and fixup proper dump of XDP action code in the
tracepoint exception, from Wang and Jesper.

Currently, we have option to configure MTU of UDP media. The configured
MTU takes effect on the links going up after that moment. I.e, a user
has to reset bearer to have new value applied across its links. This is
confusing and disturbing on a running cluster.
We now introduce the functionality to change the default UDP bearer MTU
in struct tipc_bearer. Additionally, the links are updated dynamically,
without any need for a reset, when bearer value is changed. We leverage
the existing per-link functionality and the design being symetrical to
the confguration of link tolerance.

In this commit, we introduce a parameter mtu in struct tipc_media

was determined by experimentation and found to have a higher throughput
than 16k. MTU for UDP bearers are assigned the above set value of

After working on IP defragmentation lately, I found that some large
packets defeat CHECKSUM_COMPLETE optimization because of NIC adding
zero paddings on the last (small) fragment.
While removing the padding with pskb_trim_rcsum(), we set skb->ip_summed
to CHECKSUM_NONE, forcing a full csum validation, even if all prior
fragments had CHECKSUM_COMPLETE set.
We can instead compute the checksum of the part we are trimming,
usually smaller than the part we keep.

Introduce a new delivered_ce stat in tcp socket to estimate
number of packets being marked with CE bits. The estimation is
done via ACKs with ECE bit. Depending on the actual receiver
behavior, the estimation could have biases.
Since the TCP sender can't really see the CE bit in the data path,
so the sender is technically counting packets marked delivered with
the "ECE / ECN-Echo" flag set.
With RFC3168 ECN, because the ECE bit is sticky, this count can
drastically overestimate the nummber of CE-marked data packets
With DCTCP-style ECN this should be reasonably precise unless there
is loss in the ACK path, in which case it's not precise.
With AccECN proposal this can be made still more precise, even in
the case some degree of ACK loss.
However this is sender's best estimate of CE information.

4. it does not count SYN-ACK
For congestion control perspective it does not matter much as C.C. only
cares about the difference not the aboslute value. But the next patch
would export this field to user-space so it's better to report the absolute

Commit 6dfb970d3d ("xdp: avoid leaking info stored in frame data on
page reuse") tried to allow user/bpf_prog to (re)use area used by
xdp_frame (stored in frame headroom), by memset clearing area when
bpf_xdp_adjust_head give bpf_prog access to headroom area.
The mentioned commit had two bugs. (1) Didn't take bpf_xdp_adjust_meta
into account. (2) a combination of bpf_xdp_adjust_head calls, where
xdp->data is moved into xdp_frame section, can cause clearing
xdp_frame area again for area previously granted to bpf_prog.
After discussions with Daniel, we choose to implement a simpler
solution to the problem, which is to reserve the headroom used by
xdp_frame info.
This also avoids the situation where bpf_prog is allowed to adjust/add
headers, and then XDP_REDIRECT later drops the packet due to lack of
headroom for the xdp_frame. This would likely confuse the end-user.

This patch implement the 'Device Naming' feature of the Hyper-V
network device API. In Hyper-V on the host through the GUI or PowerShell
it is possible to enable the device naming feature which causes
the host to make available to the guest the name of the device.
This shows up in the RNDIS protocol as the friendly name.
The name has no particular meaning and is limited to 256 characters.
The value can only be set via PowerShell on the host, but could
be scripted for mass deployments. The default value is the
string 'Network Adapter' and since that is the same for all devices
and useless, the driver ignores it.
In Windows, the value goes into a registry key for use in SNMP
ifAlias. For Linux, this patch puts the value in the network
device alias property; where it is visible in ip tools and SNMP.
The host provided ifAlias is just a suggestion, and can be
overridden by later ip commands.
Also requires exporting dev_set_alias in netdev core.

When configuring the number of used bearers to MAX_BEARER and issuing
command "tipc link monitor summary", the command enters infinite loop
in user space.
This issue happens because function tipc_nl_node_dump_monitor() returns
the wrong 'prev_bearer' value when all potential monitors have been
scanned.
The correct behavior is to always try to scan all monitors until either
the netlink message is full, in which case we return the bearer identity
of the affected monitor, or we continue through the whole bearer array
until we can return MAX_BEARERS. This solution also caters for the case
where there may be gaps in the bearer array.

When we delete a service item in tipc_nametbl_stop() we loop over
all service ranges in the service's RB tree, and for each service
range we loop over its pertaining publications while calling
tipc_service_remove_publ() for each of them.
However, tipc_service_remove_publ() has the side effect that it also
removes the comprising service range item when there are no publications
left. This leads to a "use-after-free" access when the inner loop
continues to the next iteration, since the range item holding the list
we are looping no longer exists.
We fix this by moving the delete of the service range item outside
the said function. Instead, we now let the two functions calling it
test if the list is empty and perform the removal when that is the
case.

IPv6 FIB will only contain FIB entries with exception routes added to
the FIB entry. Once this transformation is complete, FIB lookups will
return a fib6_info with the lookup functions still returning a dst
based rt6_info. The current code uses rt6_info for both paths and
overloads the rt6_info variable usually called 'rt'.
This patch introduces a new 'f6i' variable name for the result of the FIB
lookup and keeps 'rt' as the dst based return variable. 'f6i' becomes a
fib6_info in a later patch which is why it is introduced as f6i now;
avoids the additional churn in the later patch.
In addition, remove RTF_CACHE and dst checks from fib6 add and delete
since they can not happen now and will never happen after the data
type flip.

Most FIB entries can be added using memory allocated with GFP_KERNEL.
Add gfp_flags to ip6_route_add and addrconf_dst_alloc. Code paths that
can be reached from the packet path (e.g., ndisc and autoconfig) or
atomic notifiers use GFP_ATOMIC; paths from user context (adding
addresses and routes) use GFP_KERNEL.
