Add GRO handlers for protocols that do UDP encapsulation, with the intent of
being able to coalesce packets which encapsulate packets belonging to
the same TCP session.
For GRO purposes, the destination UDP port takes the role of the ether type
field in the ethernet header or the next protocol in the IP header.
The UDP GRO handler will only attempt to coalesce packets whose destination
port is registered to have gro handler.
Use a mark on the skb GRO CB data to disallow (flush) running the udp gro receive
code twice on a packet. This solves the problem of udp encapsulated packets whose
inner VM packet is udp and happen to carry a port which has registered offloads.

- pidlist handling is updated so that it can be served by seq_file.
Also, the list is not sorted if sane_behavior. cgroup
documentation explicitly states that the file is not sorted but it
has been for quite some time.
- All cgroup file handling now happens on top of seq_file. This is
to prepare for kernfs conversion. In addition, all operations are

For user space packet capturing libraries such as libpcap, there's
currently only one way to check which BPF extensions are supported
by the kernel, that is, commit aa1113d9f8 ("net: filter: return
-EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported"). For querying all
extensions at once this might be rather inconvenient.
Therefore, this patch introduces a new option which can be used as
an argument for getsockopt(), and allows one to obtain information
about which BPF extensions are supported by the current kernel.
As David Miller suggests, we do not need to define any bits right
now and status quo can just return 0 in order to state that this
versions supports SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET. Later
additions to BPF extensions need to add their bits to the
bpf_tell_extensions() function, as documented in the comment.

Currently, if a device changes its mtu, first the change happens (invloving
all the side effects), and after that the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU is sent so that
other devices can catch up with the new mtu. However, if they return
NOTIFY_BAD, then the change is reverted and error returned.
This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add
NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change
actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is
aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu.

When initializing a gro_list for a packet, first check the rxhash of
the incoming skb against that of the skb's in the list. This should be
a very strong inidicator of whether the flow is going to be matched,
and potentially allows a lot of other checks to be short circuited.
Use skb_hash_raw so that we don't force the hash to be calculated.

GRO layer has a limit of 8 flows being held in GRO list,
for performance reason.
When a packet comes for a flow not yet in the list,
and list is full, we immediately give it to upper
stacks, lowering aggregation performance.
With TSO auto sizing and FQ packet scheduler, this situation
happens more often.
This patch changes strategy to simply evict the oldest flow of
the list. This works better because of the nature of packet
trains for which GRO is efficient. This also has the effect
of lowering the GRO latency if many flows are competing.
Tested :
Used a 40Gbps NIC, with 4 RX queues, and 200 concurrent TCP_STREAM
netperf.
Before patch, aggregate rate is 11Gbps (while a single flow can reach
30Gbps)
After patch, line rate is reached.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:
- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
when tso is disabled for lower device.
Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.
With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.
In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e837
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.
The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.
Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.
The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.
Note that commit 60769a5dcd "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.
I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.
All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)
An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.
The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree,
they are:
* Add full port randomization support. Some crazy researchers found a way
to reconstruct the secure ephemeral ports that are allocated in random mode
by sending off-path bursts of UDP packets to overrun the socket buffer of
the DNS resolver to trigger retransmissions, then if the timing for the
DNS resolution done by a client is larger than usual, then they conclude
that the port that received the burst of UDP packets is the one that was
opened. It seems a bit aggressive method to me but it seems to work for
them. As a result, Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa came up with a
new NAT mode to fully randomize ports using prandom.
* Add a new classifier to x_tables based on the socket net_cls set via
cgroups. These includes two patches to prepare the field as requested by
Zefan Li. Also from Daniel Borkmann.
* Use prandom instead of get_random_bytes in several locations of the
netfilter code, from Florian Westphal.
* Allow to use the CTA_MARK_MASK in ctnetlink when mangling the conntrack
mark, also from Florian Westphal.
* Fix compilation warning due to unused variable in IPVS, from Geert

Zefan Li requested [1] to perform the following cleanup/refactoring:
- Split cgroupfs classid handling into net core to better express a
possible more generic use.
- Disable module support for cgroupfs bits as the majority of other
cgroupfs subsystems do not have that, and seems to be not wished
from cgroup side. Zefan probably might want to follow-up for netprio
later on.
- By this, code can be further reduced which previously took care of
functionality built when compiled as module.
cgroupfs bits are being placed under net/core/netclassid_cgroup.c, so
that we are consistent with {netclassid,netprio}_cgroup naming that is
under net/core/ as suggested by Zefan.
No change in functionality, but only code refactoring that is being
done here.

When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.
But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.
This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.
Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.
To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header(). There are
implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a
->rebuild (f.e. PLIP). So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.
Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.
With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

The neighbour code sends up an RTM_NEWNEIGH netlink notification if

changed.
But an administrative change to the the NUD state of a neighbour cache
entry that does not change the lladdr (e.g. via "ip -4 neigh change
... nud ...") does not trigger a netlink notification. This means
that netlink listeners will not hear about administrative NUD state
changes such as from a resolved state to PERMANENT.

This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header"
and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow
an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the
encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP
tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later.
With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on
skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g.,
skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the
the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for
a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new
encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows
(e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a
different hdr length.
Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and
will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at
most one "transport layer" in the encap chain.

RFC 4191 states in 3.5:
When a host avoids using any non-reachable router X and instead sends
a data packet to another router Y, and the host would have used
router X if router X were reachable, then the host SHOULD probe each
such router X's reachability by sending a single Neighbor
Solicitation to that router's address. A host MUST NOT probe a
router's reachability in the absence of useful traffic that the host
would have sent to the router if it were reachable. In any case,
these probes MUST be rate-limited to no more than one per minute per
router.
Currently, when the neighbour corresponding to a router falls into
NUD_FAILED, it's never considered again. Introduce a new rt6_nud_state
value, RT6_NUD_FAIL_PROBE, which suggests the route should not be used but
should be probed with a single NS. The probe is ratelimited by the existing
code. To better distinguish meanings of the failure values, rename
RT6_NUD_FAIL_SOFT to RT6_NUD_FAIL_DO_RR.

Previously inet devices were only constructed when addresses are added.
Therefore the default neigh parms values they get are the ones at the
time of these operations.
Now that we're creating inet devices earlier, this changes the behaviour
of default neigh parms values in an incompatible way (see bug #8519).
This patch creates a compromise by setting the default values at the
same point as before but only for those that have not been explicitly
set by the user since the inet device's creation.

In preparation of conversion to kernfs, cgroup file handling is

replaces cftype->read_seq_string() with cftype->seq_show() which is
not limited to single_open() operation and will map directcly to

The conversions are mechanical. As ->seq_show() doesn't have @css and
@cft, the functions which make use of them are converted to use
seq_css() and seq_cft() respectively. In several occassions, e.f. if
it has seq_string in its name, the function name is updated to fit the
new method better.

because encrypted payload's length is NOT same as that of plain text.
- After transformation, IPv4 checksum needs re-caculate because of payload
has been changed.
With this patch, armmed pktgen with below cofiguration, Wireshark is able to

Recently GRO started generating packets with frag_lists of frags.
This was not handled by GSO, thus leading to a crash.
Thankfully these packets are of a regular form and are easy to
handle. This patch handles them in two ways. For completely
non-linear frag_list entries, we simply continue to iterate over
the frag_list frags once we exhaust the normal frags. For frag_list
entries with linear parts, we call pskb_trim on the first part
of the frag_list skb, and then process the rest of the frags in
the usual way.
This patch also kills a chunk of dead frag_list code that has

This patch now always passes msg->msg_namelen as 0. recvmsg handlers must
set msg_namelen to the proper size <= sizeof(struct sockaddr_storage)
to return msg_name to the user.
This prevents numerous uninitialized memory leaks we had in the
recvmsg handlers and makes it harder for new code to accidentally leak
uninitialized memory.
Optimize for the case recvfrom is called with NULL as address. We don't
need to copy the address at all, so set it to NULL before invoking the
recvmsg handler. We can do so, because all the recvmsg handlers must
cope with the case a plain read() is called on them. read() also sets
msg_name to NULL.
Also document these changes in include/linux/net.h as suggested by David
Miller.
Changes since RFC:
Set msg->msg_name = NULL if user specified a NULL in msg_name but had a
non-null msg_namelen in verify_iovec/verify_compat_iovec. This doesn't
affect sendto as it would bail out earlier while trying to copy-in the
address. It also more naturally reflects the logic by the callers of
verify_iovec.
With this change in place I could remove "
if (!uaddr || msg_sys->msg_namelen == 0)
msg->msg_name = NULL
".
This change does not alter the user visible error logic as we ignore
msg_namelen as long as msg_name is NULL.
Also remove two unnecessary curly brackets in ___sys_recvmsg and change
comments to netdev style.

The following commit:
b6c40d68ff
net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting.
The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that
was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count.
This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently
down.
A later commit:
deede2fabe
vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces
fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up,
thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN.
The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack
involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans,
then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to
the physical devices. A simple examle of the scenario is the
following:
eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50
If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to
the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is
currently required for operation as part of the bridge. As a
result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface.
The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are
VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect
flag propagation. As a result we can remove the generic solution
introduced in b6c40d68ff and leave
it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block
flag propagation or not.

Register generic netlink multicast groups as an array with
the family and give them contiguous group IDs. Then instead
of passing the global group ID to the various functions that
send messages, pass the ID relative to the family - for most
families that's just 0 because the only have one group.
This avoids the list_head and ID in each group, adding a new
field for the mcast group ID offset to the family.
At the same time, this allows us to prevent abusing groups
again like the quota and dropmon code did, since we can now
check that a family only uses a group it owns.

As suggested by David Miller, make genl_register_family_with_ops()

The openvswitch has some indirection, assing ops/n_ops directly in

A macvlan device has always LRO disabled so that calling

e.g. because
- the macvlan device is inserted into a bridge
- IPv6 forwarding is enabled for it
- it is in a different namespace than lowerdev and IPv4
forwarding is enabled in it
we need to disable LRO on its underlying device instead (as we

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.

Pushing original fragments through causes several problems. For example
for matching, frags may not be matched correctly. Take following
example:
<example>
On HOSTA do:
ip6tables -I INPUT -p icmpv6 -j DROP
ip6tables -I INPUT -p icmpv6 -m icmp6 --icmpv6-type 128 -j ACCEPT
and on HOSTB you do:
ping6 HOSTA -s2000 (MTU is 1500)
Incoming echo requests will be filtered out on HOSTA. This issue does
not occur with smaller packets than MTU (where fragmentation does not happen)
</example>
As was discussed previously, the only correct solution seems to be to use
reassembled skb instead of separete frags. Doing this has positive side
effects in reducing sk_buff by one pointer (nfct_reasm) and also the reams
dances in ipvs and conntrack can be removed.
Future plan is to remove net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_conntrack_reasm.c
entirely and use code in net/ipv6/reassembly.c instead.

When trying to delete a table >= 256 using iproute2 the local table
will be deleted.
The table id is specified as a netlink attribute when it needs more then
8 bits and iproute2 then sets the table field to RT_TABLE_UNSPEC (0).
Preconditions to matching the table id in the rule delete code
doesn't seem to take the "table id in netlink attribute" into condition
so the frh_get_table helper function never gets to do its job when
matching against current rule.
Use the helper function twice instead of peaking at the table value directly.

result suitable for feeding into itself or csum_tcpudp_magic(),

net_get_random_once is a new macro which handles the initialization
of secret keys. It is possible to call it in the fast path. Only the
initialization depends on the spinlock and is rather slow. Otherwise
it should get used just before the key is used to delay the entropy
extration as late as possible to get better randomness. It returns true
if the key got initialized.
The usage of static_keys for net_get_random_once is a bit uncommon so
it needs some further explanation why this actually works:
=== In the simple non-HAVE_JUMP_LABEL case we actually have ===
no constrains to use static_key_(true|false) on keys initialized with
STATIC_KEY_INIT_(FALSE|TRUE). So this path just expands in favor of
the likely case that the initialization is already done. The key is
initialized like this:
___done_key = { .enabled = ATOMIC_INIT(0) }
The check
if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \
expands into (pseudo code)
if (!likely(___done_key > 0))
, so we take the fast path as soon as ___done_key is increased from the
helper function.
=== If HAVE_JUMP_LABELs are available this depends ===
on patching of jumps into the prepared NOPs, which is done in
jump_label_init at boot-up time (from start_kernel). It is forbidden
and dangerous to use net_get_random_once in functions which are called
before that!
At compilation time NOPs are generated at the call sites of
net_get_random_once. E.g. net/ipv6/inet6_hashtable.c:inet6_ehashfn (we
need to call net_get_random_once two times in inet6_ehashfn, so two NOPs):
71: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
76: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
Both will be patched to the actual jumps to the end of the function to
call __net_get_random_once at boot time as explained above.
arch_static_branch is optimized and inlined for false as return value and
actually also returns false in case the NOP is placed in the instruction
stream. So in the fast case we get a "return false". But because we
initialize ___done_key with (enabled != (entries & 1)) this call-site
will get patched up at boot thus returning true. The final check looks
like this:
if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \
expands to
if (!!static_key_false(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \
So we get true at boot time and as soon as static_key_slow_inc is called
on the key it will invert the logic and return false for the fast path.
static_key_slow_inc will change the branch because it got initialized
with .enabled == 0. After static_key_slow_inc is called on the key the
branch is replaced with a nop again.
=== Misc: ===
The helper defers the increment into a workqueue so we don't
have problems calling this code from atomic sections. A seperate boolean
(___done) guards the case where we enter net_get_random_once again before
the increment happend.

skb_gro_receive() is currently limited to 16 or 17 MSS per GRO skb,
typically 24616 bytes, because it fills up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags.
It's relatively easy to extend the skb using frag_list to allow
more frags to be appended into the last sk_buff.
This still builds very efficient skbs, and allows reaching 45 MSS per
skb.
(45 MSS GRO packet uses one skb plus a frag_list containing 2 additional
sk_buff)
High speed TCP flows benefit from this extension by lowering TCP stack
cpu usage (less packets stored in receive queue, less ACK packets
processed)
Forwarding setups could be hurt, as such skbs will need to be
linearized, although its not a new problem, as GRO could already
provide skbs with a frag_list.
We could make the 65536 bytes threshold a tunable to mitigate this.
(First time we need to linearize skb in skb_needs_linearize(), we could
lower the tunable to ~16*1460 so that following skb_gro_receive() calls
build smaller skbs)

As mentioned in commit afe4fd0624 ("pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet
scheduler"), this patch adds a new socket option.
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE offers the application the ability to cap the
rate computed by transport layer. Value is in bytes per second.
u32 val = 1000000;
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_MAX_PACING_RATE, &val, sizeof(val));
To be effectively paced, a flow must use FQ packet scheduler.
Note that a packet scheduler takes into account the headers for its
computations. The effective payload rate depends on MSS and retransmits
if any.
I chose to make this pacing rate a SOL_SOCKET option instead of a
TCP one because this can be used by other protocols.

There is currently serialization network namespaces exiting and
network devices exiting as the final part of netdev_run_todo does not
happen under the rtnl_lock. This is compounded by the fact that the
only list of devices unregistering in netdev_run_todo is local to the
netdev_run_todo.
This lack of serialization in extreme cases results in network devices
unregistering in netdev_run_todo after the loopback device of their
network namespace has been freed (making dst_ifdown unsafe), and after
the their network namespace has exited (making the NETDEV_UNREGISTER,
and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL callbacks unsafe).
Add the missing serialization by a per network namespace count of how
many network devices are unregistering and having a wait queue that is
woken up whenever the count is decreased. The count and wait queue
allow default_device_exit_batch to wait until all of the unregistration
activity for a network namespace has finished before proceeding to
unregister the loopback device and then allowing the network namespace
to exit.
Only a single global wait queue is used because there is a single global
lock, and there is a single waiter, per network namespace wait queues
would be a waste of resources.
The per network namespace count of unregistering devices gives a
progress guarantee because the number of network devices unregistering
in an exiting network namespace must ultimately drop to zero (assuming
network device unregistration completes).
The basic logic remains the same as in v1. This patch is now half
comment and half rtnl_lock_unregistering an expanded version of
wait_event performs no extra work in the common case where no network
devices are unregistering when we get to default_device_exit_batch.

sysfs ns (namespace) implementation became more convoluted than
necessary while trying to hide ns information from visible interface.
The relatively recent attr ns support is a good example.
* attr ns tag is determined by sysfs_ops->namespace() callback while
dir tag is determined by kobj_type->namespace(). The placement is
arbitrary.
* Instead of performing operations with explicit ns tag, the namespace
callback is routed through sysfs_attr_ns(), sysfs_ops->namespace(),
class_attr_namespace(), class_attr->namespace(). It's not simpler
in any sense. The only thing this convolution does is traversing
the whole stack backwards.
The namespace callbacks are unncessary because the operations involved
are inherently synchronous. The information can be provided in in
straight-forward top-down direction and reversing that direction is
unnecessary and against basic design principles.
This backward interface is unnecessarily convoluted and hinders
properly separating out sysfs from driver model / kobject for proper
layering. This patch updates attr ns support such that
* sysfs_ops->namespace() and class_attr->namespace() are dropped.
* sysfs_{create|remove}_file_ns(), which take explicit @ns param, are
added and sysfs_{create|remove}_file() are now simple wrappers
around the ns aware functions.
* ns handling is dropped from sysfs_chmod_file(). Nobody uses it at
this point. sysfs_chmod_file_ns() can be added later if necessary.
* Explicit @ns is propagated through class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
and netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns().
* driver/net/bonding which is currently the only user of attr
namespace is updated to use netdev_class_{create|remove}_file_ns()
with @bh->net as the ns tag instead of using the namespace callback.
This patch should be an equivalent conversion without any functional
difference. It makes the code easier to follow, reduces lines of code
a bit and helps proper separation and layering.

Currently, we distinguish neighbours (first-level linked devices) from
non-neighbours by the neighbour bool in the netdev_adjacent. This could be
quite time-consuming in case we would like to traverse *only* through
neighbours - cause we'd have to traverse through all devices and check for
this flag, and in a (quite common) scenario where we have lots of vlans on
top of bridge, which is on top of a bond - the bonding would have to go
through all those vlans to get its upper neighbour linked devices.
This situation is really unpleasant, cause there are already a lot of cases
when a device with slaves needs to go through them in hot path.
To fix this, introduce a new upper/lower device lists structure -
adj_list, which contains only the neighbours. It works always in
pair with the all_adj_list structure (renamed from upper/lower_dev_list),
i.e. both of them contain the same links, only that all_adj_list contains
also non-neighbour device links. It's really a small change visible,
currently, only for __netdev_adjacent_dev_insert/remove(), and doesn't
change the main linked logic at all.
Also, add some comments a fix a name collision in
netdev_for_each_upper_dev_rcu() and rework the naming by the following
rules:
netdev_(all_)(upper|lower)_*
If "all_" is present, then we work with the whole list of upper/lower
devices, otherwise - only with direct neighbours. Uninline functions - to
get better stack traces.

Currently we always use the first member of the arp_queue to determine
the sender ip address of the arp packet (or in case of IPv6 - source
address of the ndisc packet). This skb is fixed as long as the queue is
not drained by a complete purge because of a timeout or by a successful
response.
If the first packet enqueued on the arp_queue is from a local application
with a manually set source address and the to be discovered system
does some kind of uRPF checks on the source address in the arp packet
the resolving process hangs until a timeout and restarts. This hurts
communication with the participating network node.
This could be mitigated a bit if we use the latest enqueued skb's
source address for the resolving process, which is not as static as
the arp_queue's head. This change of the source address could result in
better recovery of a failed solicitation.

I've been hitting a NULL ptr deref while using netconsole because the
np->dev check and the pointer manipulation in netpoll_cleanup are done
without rtnl and the following sequence happens when having a netconsole
over a vlan and we remove the vlan while disabling the netconsole:
CPU 1 CPU2
removes vlan and calls the notifier
enters store_enabled(), calls
netdev_cleanup which checks np->dev
and then waits for rtnl
executes the netconsole netdev
release notifier making np->dev
== NULL and releases rtnl
continues to dereference a member of
np->dev which at this point is == NULL

commit 416186fbf8 ("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx
into __netdev_pick_tx") added a bug that disables caching of queue
index in the socket.
This is the source of packet reorders for TCP flows, and
again this is happening more often when using FQ pacing.
Old code was doing
if (queue_index != old_index)
sk_tx_queue_set(sk, queue_index);
Alexander renamed the variables but forgot to change sk_tx_queue_set()
2nd parameter.
if (queue_index != new_index)
sk_tx_queue_set(sk, queue_index);
This means we store -1 over and over in sk->sk_tx_queue_mapping

Pull namespace changes from Eric Biederman:
"This is an assorted mishmash of small cleanups, enhancements and bug
fixes.
The major theme is user namespace mount restrictions. nsown_capable
is killed as it encourages not thinking about details that need to be

tracked and fixed. A couple of cleanups to the basic namespace
infrastructure.
Finally there is an enhancement that makes per user namespace
capabilities usable as capabilities, and an enhancement that allows
the per userns root to nice other processes in the user namespace"

Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
"A lot of activities on the cgroup front. Most changes aren't visible
to userland at all at this point and are laying foundation for the
planned unified hierarchy.
- The biggest change is decoupling the lifetime management of css
(cgroup_subsys_state) from that of cgroup's. Because controllers
(cpu, memory, block and so on) will need to be dynamically enabled
and disabled, css which is the association point between a cgroup
and a controller may come and go dynamically across the lifetime of
a cgroup. Till now, css's were created when the associated cgroup
was created and stayed till the cgroup got destroyed.
Assumptions around this tight coupling permeated through cgroup
core and controllers. These assumptions are gradually removed,
which consists bulk of patches, and css destruction path is
completely decoupled from cgroup destruction path. Note that
decoupling of creation path is relatively easy on top of these
changes and the patchset is pending for the next window.
- cgroup has its own event mechanism cgroup.event_control, which is
only used by memcg. It is overly complex trying to achieve high
flexibility whose benefits seem dubious at best. Going forward,
new events will simply generate file modified event and the
existing mechanism is being made specific to memcg. This pull
request contains prepatory patches for such change.
- Various fixes and cleanups"

By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default
for all devices. But we have better choices now.
This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl.
This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices
without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow
an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default
qdisc.
This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly
use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl
is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast
Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

commit 8728c544a9 ("net: dev_pick_tx() fix") and commit
b6fe83e952 ("bonding: refine IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE capability")
are quite incompatible : Queue selection is disabled because skb
dst was dropped before entering bonding device.
This causes major performance regression, mainly because TCP packets
for a given flow can be sent to multiple queues.
This is particularly visible when using the new FQ packet scheduler
with MQ + FQ setup on the slaves.
We can safely revert the first commit now that 416186fbf8
("net: Split core bits of netdev_pick_tx into __netdev_pick_tx")

This patch adds lower_dev_list list_head to net_device, which is the same
as upper_dev_list, only for lower devices, and begins to use it in the same
way as the upper list.
It also changes the way the whole adjacent device lists work - now they
contain *all* of upper/lower devices, not only the first level. The first
level devices are distinguished by the bool neighbour field in
netdev_adjacent, also added by this patch.
There are cases when a device can be added several times to the adjacent
list, the simplest would be:
/---- eth0.10 ---\
eth0- --- bond0
\---- eth0.20 ---/
where both bond0 and eth0 'see' each other in the adjacent lists two times.
To avoid duplication of netdev_adjacent structures ref_nr is being kept as
the number of times the device was added to the list.
The 'full view' is achieved by adding, on link creation, all of the
upper_dev's upper_dev_list devices as upper devices to all of the
lower_dev's lower_dev_list devices (and to the lower_dev itself), and vice
versa. On unlink they are removed using the same logic.
I've tested it with thousands vlans/bonds/bridges, everything works ok and
no observable lags even on a huge number of interfaces.
Memory footprint for 128 devices interconnected with each other via both
upper and lower (which is impossible, but for the comparison) lists would be:
128*128*2*sizeof(netdev_adjacent) = 1.5MB
but in the real world we usualy have at most several devices with slaves
and a lot of vlans, so the footprint will be much lower.

Don't allow mounting sysfs unless the caller has CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights
over the net namespace. The principle here is if you create or have
capabilities over it you can mount it, otherwise you get to live with
what other people have mounted.
Instead of testing this with a straight forward ns_capable call,
perform this check the long and torturous way with kobject helpers,
this keeps direct knowledge of namespaces out of sysfs, and preserves
the existing sysfs abstractions.

Fix the iproute2 command `bridge vlan show`, after switching from
rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg.
Let's start with a little history:
Feb 20: Vlad Yasevich got his VLAN-aware bridge patchset included in
the 3.9 merge window.
In the kernel commit 6cbdceeb, he added attribute support to
bridge GETLINK requests sent with rtgenmsg.
Mar 6th: Vlad got this iproute2 reference implementation of the bridge
vlan netlink interface accepted (iproute2 9eff0e5c)
Apr 25th: iproute2 switched from using rtgenmsg to ifinfomsg (63338dca)
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/239602/http://marc.info/?t=136680900700007
Apr 28th: Linus released 3.9
Apr 30th: Stephen released iproute2 3.9.0
The `bridge vlan show` command haven't been working since the switch to
ifinfomsg, or in a released version of iproute2. Since the kernel side
only supports rtgenmsg, which iproute2 switched away from just prior to
the iproute2 3.9.0 release.
I haven't been able to find any documentation, about neither rtgenmsg
nor ifinfomsg, and in which situation to use which, but kernel commit
88c5b5ce seams to suggest that ifinfomsg should be used.
Fixing this in kernel will break compatibility, but I doubt that anybody
have been using it due to this bug in the user space reference
implementation, at least not without noticing this bug. That said the
functionality is still fully functional in 3.9, when reversing iproute2
commit 63338dca.
This could also be fixed in iproute2, but thats an ugly patch that would
reintroduce rtgenmsg in iproute2, and from searching in netdev it seams
like rtgenmsg usage is discouraged. I'm assuming that the only reason
that Vlad implemented the kernel side to use rtgenmsg, was because
iproute2 was using it at the time.

if each skb could carry at least 100% more payload than before.
We can instruct sock_alloc_send_pskb() to attempt high order

Most of the time, it does a single page allocation instead of 8.

cgroup is in the process of converting to css (cgroup_subsys_state)
from cgroup as the principal subsystem interface handle. This is
mostly to prepare for the unified hierarchy support where css's will
be created and destroyed dynamically but also helps cleaning up
subsystem implementations as css is usually what they are interested
in anyway.
cgroup_taskset which is used by the subsystem attach methods is the
last cgroup subsystem API which isn't using css as the handle. Update
cgroup_taskset_cur_cgroup() to cgroup_taskset_cur_css() and
cgroup_taskset_for_each() to take @skip_css instead of @skip_cgrp.
The conversions are pretty mechanical. One exception is
cpuset::cgroup_cs(), which lost its last user and got removed.
This patch shouldn't introduce any functional changes.

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct
cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup.
Please see the previous commit which converts the subsystem methods
for rationale.
This patch converts all cftype file operations to take @css instead of
@cgroup. cftypes for the cgroup core files don't have their subsytem
pointer set. These will automatically use the dummy_css added by the
previous patch and can be converted the same way.
Most subsystem conversions are straight forwards but there are some
interesting ones.
* freezer: update_if_frozen() is also converted to take @css instead
of @cgroup for consistency. This will make the code look simpler
too once iterators are converted to use css.
* memory/vmpressure: mem_cgroup_from_css() needs to be exported to
vmpressure while mem_cgroup_from_cont() can be made static.
Updated accordingly.
* cpu: cgroup_tg() doesn't have any user left. Removed.
* cpuacct: cgroup_ca() doesn't have any user left. Removed.
* hugetlb: hugetlb_cgroup_form_cgroup() doesn't have any user left.

cgroup is currently in the process of transitioning to using struct
cgroup_subsys_state * as the primary handle instead of struct cgroup *
in subsystem implementations for the following reasons.
* With unified hierarchy, subsystems will be dynamically bound and
unbound from cgroups and thus css's (cgroup_subsys_state) may be
created and destroyed dynamically over the lifetime of a cgroup,
which is different from the current state where all css's are
allocated and destroyed together with the associated cgroup. This
in turn means that cgroup_css() should be synchronized and may
return NULL, making it more cumbersome to use.
* Differing levels of per-subsystem granularity in the unified
hierarchy means that the task and descendant iterators should behave
differently depending on the specific subsystem the iteration is
being performed for.
* In majority of the cases, subsystems only care about its part in the
cgroup hierarchy - ie. the hierarchy of css's. Subsystem methods
often obtain the matching css pointer from the cgroup and don't
bother with the cgroup pointer itself. Passing around css fits
much better.
This patch converts all cgroup_subsys methods to take @css instead of
@cgroup. The conversions are mostly straight-forward. A few
noteworthy changes are
* ->css_alloc() now takes css of the parent cgroup rather than the
pointer to the new cgroup as the css for the new cgroup doesn't
exist yet. Knowing the parent css is enough for all the existing
subsystems.
* In kernel/cgroup.c::offline_css(), unnecessary open coded css
dereference is replaced with local variable access.
This patch shouldn't cause any behavior differences.
v2: Unnecessary explicit cgrp->subsys[] deref in css_online() replaced
with local variable @css as suggested by Li Zefan.
Rebased on top of new for-3.12 which includes for-3.11-fixes so
that ->css_free() invocation added by da0a12caff ("cgroup: fix a
leak when percpu_ref_init() fails") is converted too. Suggested
by Li Zefan.

cgroup controller API will be converted to primarily use struct
cgroup_subsys_state instead of struct cgroup. In preparation, make
the internal functions of netprio_cgroup pass around @css instead of
@cgrp.
While at it, kill struct cgroup_netprio_state which only contained
struct cgroup_subsys_state without serving any purpose. All functions
are converted to deal with @css directly.

The names of the two struct cgroup_subsys_state accessors -
cgroup_subsys_state() and task_subsys_state() - are somewhat awkward.
The former clashes with the type name and the latter doesn't even
indicate it's somehow related to cgroup.
We're about to revamp large portion of cgroup API, so, let's rename
them so that they're less awkward. Most per-controller usages of the
accessors are localized in accessor wrappers and given the amount of
scheduled changes, this isn't gonna add any noticeable headache.
Rename cgroup_subsys_state() to cgroup_css() and task_subsys_state()
to task_css(). This patch is pure rename.

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).

It's possible to assign an invalid value to the net.core.somaxconn
sysctl variable, because there is no checks at all.
The sk_max_ack_backlog field of the sock structure is defined as
unsigned short. Therefore, the backlog argument in inet_listen()
shouldn't exceed USHRT_MAX. The backlog argument in the listen() syscall
is truncated to the somaxconn value. So, the somaxconn value shouldn't
exceed 65535 (USHRT_MAX).
Also, negative values of somaxconn are meaningless.

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.

Commit 547669d483 ("tcp: xps: fix reordering issues") added
unexpected reorders in case netem is used in a MQ setup for high
performance test bed.
ETH=eth0
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
for i in `seq 1 32`
do
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$i netem delay 100ms
done
As all tcp packets are orphaned by netem, TCP stack believes it can
set skb->ooo_okay on all packets.
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

("vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols")
Florian made sure we set pkt_type to PACKET_OTHERHOST
if the vlan id is set and we could find a vlan device for this
particular id.
But we also have a problem if prio bits are set.
Steinar reported an issue on a router receiving IPv6 frames with a
vlan tag of 4000 (id 0, prio 2), and tunneled into a sit device,
because skb->vlan_tci is set.
Forwarded frame is completely corrupted : We can see (8100:4000)

It seems we are not really ready to properly cope with this right now.
We can probably do better in future kernels :
vlan_get_ingress_priority() should be a netdev property instead of
a per vlan_dev one.

The __cpuinit type of throwaway sections might have made sense
some time ago when RAM was more constrained, but now the savings
do not offset the cost and complications. For example, the fix in
commit 5e427ec2d0 ("x86: Fix bit corruption at CPU resume time")
is a good example of the nasty type of bugs that can be created
with improper use of the various __init prefixes.
After a discussion on LKML[1] it was decided that cpuinit should go
the way of devinit and be phased out. Once all the users are gone,
we can then finally remove the macros themselves from linux/init.h.
This removes all the net/* uses of the __cpuinit macros
from all C files.

This change makes it so that the GRE and VXLAN tunnels can make use of Tx
checksum offload support provided by some drivers via the hw_enc_features.
Without this fix enabling GSO means sacrificing Tx checksum offload and
this actually leads to a performance regression as shown below:
Utilization
Send
Throughput local GSO
10^6bits/s % S state
6276.51 8.39 enabled
7123.52 8.42 disabled
To resolve this it was necessary to address two items. First
netif_skb_features needed to be updated so that it would correctly handle
the Trans Ether Bridging protocol without impacting the need to check for
Q-in-Q tagging. To do this it was necessary to update harmonize_features
so that it used skb_network_protocol instead of just using the outer
protocol.
Second it was necessary to update the GRE and UDP tunnel segmentation
offloads so that they would reset the encapsulation bit and inner header
offsets after the offload was complete.
As a result of this change I have seen the following results on a interface
with Tx checksum enabled for encapsulated frames:
Utilization
Send
Throughput local GSO
10^6bits/s % S state
7123.52 8.42 disabled
8321.75 5.43 enabled
v2: Instead of replacing refrence to skb->protocol with
skb_network_protocol just replace the protocol reference in
harmonize_features to allow for double VLAN tag checks.

The dev_forward_skb() assignment of pkt_type should be done
after the call to eth_type_trans().
ip-encapsulated packets can be handled by localhost. But skb->pkt_type
can be PACKET_OTHERHOST when packet comes via veth into ip tunnel device.
In that case, the packet is dropped by ip_rcv().
Although this example uses gretap. l2tp-eth also has same issue.
For l2tp-eth case, add dummy device for ip address and ip l2tp command.

As the patch "bnx2x: remove zeroing of dump data buffer" showed,
it is too easy implement .get_dump_data incorrectly in a driver.
Let's make sure drivers cannot get confused by userspace requesting
a too big dump.
Also WARN if the driver sets dump->len to something weird and make
sure the length reported to userspace is the actual length of data
copied to userspace.

There is a race in neighbour code, because neigh_destroy() uses
skb_queue_purge(&neigh->arp_queue) without holding neighbour lock,
while other parts of the code assume neighbour rwlock is what
protects arp_queue
Convert all skb_queue_purge() calls to the __skb_queue_purge() variant
Use __skb_queue_head_init() instead of skb_queue_head_init()
to make clear we do not use arp_queue.lock
And hold neigh->lock in neigh_destroy() to close the race.

When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the
rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue
to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a
SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to
the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the
writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the
devnet_rename_seq sequence.
This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name())
and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and
SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt.
The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid
spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become
even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying
the access to give the writer process a chance to finish.
The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the
reader process in the contended case, but this is better than
deadlocking the system.

select/poll busy-poll support.
Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll.
updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt
Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call
sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value
to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found.
When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level
sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something.
Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can
return the result to the user ASAP.

Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read()
even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the
one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page.
With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling
skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally
intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda), that is, only call
skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

netif_alloc_netdev_queues() uses kcalloc() to allocate memory
for the "struct netdev_queue *_tx" array.
For large number of tx queues, kcalloc() might fail, so this

to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right
next to the deletion of another option.
The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the
handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action().
Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically
keep everything in both conflict hunks.
The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a
dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that
Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted
to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine
whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation.
However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have
to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the
conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the
RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should
be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes.
To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try
to allocate 'tb'.

As part of the push to add 802.1ad server provider tagging support to the
kernel the VLAN features flags were renamed. Unfortunately the kernel name
for the VLAN hardware acceleration features that the kernel shows user space
was included in the rename, which broke ethtool (txvlan and rxvlan options
do not work). This patch restores the original names, i.e. the original ABI.
If we wanted to make clear to users that we are refering to CTAGs we can
always change ethtool's short_name and long_name for these features (for
example something along the lines of txvlan -> txvlan-ctag, tx-vlan-offload ->
tx-vlan-ctag-offload).

Caught by sparse:
- __rcu: missing annotation to sd->flow_limit
- __user: direct access in cpumask_scnprintf
Also
- add endline character when printing bitmap if room in buffer
- avoid bucket overflow by reducing FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY
The last item warrants some explanation. The hashtable buckets are
subject to overflow if FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY is larger than or equal
to bucket size, since all packets may end up in a single bucket. The
current (rather arbitrary) history value of 256 happens to match the
buffer size (u8).
As a result, with a single flow, the first 128 packets are accepted
(correct), the second 128 packets dropped (correct) and then the
history[] array has filled, so that each subsequent new packet
causes an increment in the bucket for new_flow plus a decrement
for old_flow: a steady state.
This is fine if packets are dropped, as the steady state goes away
as soon as a mix of traffic reappears. But, because the 256th packet
overflowed the bucket to 0: no packets are dropped.
Instead of explicitly adding an overflow check, this patch changes
FLOW_LIMIT_HISTORY to never be able to overflow a single bucket.
