udplite conflict is resolved by taking what 'net-next' did
which removed the backlog receive method assignment, since
it is no longer necessary.
Two entries were added to the non-priv ethtool operations
switch statement, one in 'net' and one in 'net-next, so
simple overlapping changes.

In commit 10724cc7bb78 ("tipc: redesign connection-level flow control")
we replaced the previous message based flow control with one based on
1k blocks. In order to ensure backwards compatibility the mechanism
falls back to using message as base unit when it senses that the peer
doesn't support the new algorithm. The default flow control window,
i.e., how many units can be sent before the sender blocks and waits
for an acknowledge (aka advertisement) is 512. This was tested against
the previous version, which uses an acknowledge frequency of on ack per
256 received message, and found to work fine.
However, we missed the fact that versions older than Linux 3.15 use an
acknowledge frequency of 512, which is exactly the limit where a 4.6+
sender will stop and wait for acknowledge. This would also work fine if
it weren't for the fact that if the first sent message on a 4.6+ server
side is an empty SYNACK, this one is also is counted as a sent message,
while it is not counted as a received message on a legacy 3.15-receiver.
This leads to the sender always being one step ahead of the receiver, a
scenario causing the sender to block after 512 sent messages, while the
receiver only has registered 511 read messages. Hence, the legacy
receiver is not trigged to send an acknowledge, with a permanently
blocked sender as result.
We solve this deadlock by simply allowing the sender to send one more
message before it blocks, i.e., by a making minimal change to the
condition used for determining connection congestion.

====================
mlxsw: traps, trap groups and policers
Nogah says:
For a packet to be sent from the HW to the cpu, it needs to be trapped.
For a trap to be activate it should be assigned to a trap group.
Those trap groups can have policers, to limit the packet rate (the max
number of packets that can be sent to the cpu in a time slot, the rest
will be discarded) or the data rate (the same, but the count is not by the
number of packets but by their total length in bytes).
This patchset rearrange the trap setting API, re-write the traps and the
trap groups list in spectrum and assign them policers.

Configure policers and connect them to trap groups.
While many trap groups share policer's configuration they don't share
the actual policer because each trap group represents a different
flow / protocol and we don't want one of them to be able to exceed its
rate on behalf of another.
For example, if STP and LLDP gets to send 128 packets/sec each, if we
put them in one 256 packets/sec policer, one can send 200 packets while
the other only 50.
Note that IP2ME covers lots of flows, so it's limit is set to match the
cpu ability to handle data.

Trap groups can be used to control traps priority, both in terms of
which trap "wins" if a packet matches two traps (priority) and in terms
of packets from which trap group will be scheduled to the cpu first (tc).
They can also be used to set rate limiters (policers) on them (will be
added in the next patches).
Currently, we support two trap groups. In Spectrum we want a better
resolution, so every protocol / flow will have a different trap group,
so we can control its parameters separately. Once the policers will be
implemented, it will also allow us limit the rate of each protocol by
itself.
This patch change the trap group list to include:
* the emad trap group, which is shared for all the devices.
* Switchx2's trap groups, which are a copy of the current trap groups.
* Spectrum's new trap groups, in order to match the above guidelines.
(Switchib is using only the emad trap group, so it require no changes).
This patch also includes new configuration for Spectrum's trap groups,
with primary priority order within them.

Trap groups have many options which we currently set to default values.
In the next patches we will use many of them with non-default values.
Some of these options have no default value, so this patch sets them as
params for the trap group set function. Others almost always use the same
values, so the set function will use this default values. In the rare cases
when they will need to be with other values, these values can be set
directly (using the macros for fields in registers).
Parameters without default value:
TC - the traffic class for packets that hit this trap group.
(old default is the max tc)
priority - if one packet hits multiple trap groups, the group with the
higher priority will "catch" it. (old default is 0)
policer - limit rate policer (old default is disabled)
Default parameters:
swid - switch id, relevant for the emad trap only, ignored on Spectrum.
(new default is 0)
rdq - CPU receive descriptor queue (new default is identical to trap
group id)

In commit 35c55c9877f8 ("tipc: add neighbor monitoring framework") we
added a data area to the link monitor STATE messages under the
assumption that previous versions did not use any such data area.
For versions older than Linux 4.3 this assumption is not correct. In
those version, all STATE messages sent out from a node inadvertently
contain a 16 byte data area containing a string; -a leftover from
previous RESET messages which were using this during the setup phase.
This string serves no purpose in STATE messages, and should no be there.
Unfortunately, this data area is delivered to the link monitor
framework, where a sanity check catches that it is not a correct domain
record, and drops it. It also issues a rate limited warning about the
event.
Since such events occur much more frequently than anticipated, we now
choose to remove the warning in order to not fill the kernel log with
useless contents. We also make the sanity check stricter, to further
reduce the risk that such data is inavertently admitted.

commit 817298102b0b ("tipc: fix link priority propagation") introduced a
compatibility problem between TIPC versions newer than Linux 4.6 and
those older than Linux 4.4. In versions later than 4.4, link STATE
messages only contain a non-zero link priority value when the sender
wants the receiver to change its priority. This has the effect that the
receiver resets itself in order to apply the new priority. This works
well, and is consistent with the said commit.
However, in versions older than 4.4 a valid link priority is present in
all sent link STATE messages, leading to cyclic link establishment and
reset on the 4.6+ node.
We fix this by adding a test that the received value should not only
be valid, but also differ from the current value in order to cause the
receiving link endpoint to reset.

Pull parisc fixes from Helge Deller:
"On parisc we were still seeing occasional random segmentation faults
and memory corruption on SMP machines. Dave Anglin then looked again
at the TLB related code and found two issues in the PCI DMA and
generic TLB flush functions.
Then, in our startup code we had some timing of the cache and TLB
functions to calculate a threshold when to use a complete TLB/cache
flush or just to flush a specific range. This code produced a race
with newly started CPUs and thus lead to occasional kernel crashes
(due to stale TLB/cache entries). The patch by Dave fixes this issue
by flushing the local caches before starting secondary CPUs and by
removing the race.
The last problem fixed by this series is that we quite often suffered
from hung tasks and self-detected stalls on the CPUs. It was somehow
clear that this was related to the (in v4.7) newly introduced cr16
clocksource and the own implementation of sched_clock(). I replaced
the open-coded sched_clock() function and switched to the generic
sched_clock() implementation which seems to have fixed this isse as
well.

Typical NAPI drivers use napi_consume_skb(skb) at TX completion time.
This put skb in a percpu special queue, napi_alloc_cache, to get bulk
frees.
It turns out the queue is not flushed and hits the NAPI_SKB_CACHE_SIZE
limit quite often, with skbs that were queued hundreds of usec earlier.
I measured this can take ~6000 nsec to perform one flush.
__kfree_skb_flush() can be called from two points right now :
1) From net_tx_action(), but only for skbs that were queued to
sd->completion_queue.
-> Irrelevant for NAPI drivers in normal operation.
2) From net_rx_action(), but only under high stress or if RPS/RFS has a
pending action.
This patch changes net_rx_action() to perform the flush in all cases and
after more urgent operations happened (like kicking remote CPUS for
RPS/RFS).

Pull keys fixes from James Morris:
"From David:
- Fix mpi_powm()'s handling of a number with a zero exponent
[CVE-2016-8650].
Integrate my and Andrey's patches for mpi_powm() and use
mpi_resize() instead of RESIZE_IF_NEEDED() - the latter adds a
duplicate check into the execution path of a trivial case we
don't normally expect to be taken.
- Fix double free in X.509 error handling"
* 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jmorris/linux-security:
mpi: Fix NULL ptr dereference in mpi_powm() [ver #3]
X.509: Fix double free in x509_cert_parse() [ver #3]

CONFIG_MODVERSIONS has been broken for pretty much the whole 4.9 series,
and quite frankly, nobody has cared very deeply. We absolutely know how
to fix it, and it's not _complicated_, but it's not exactly pretty
either.
This oneliner fixes it without the ugliness, and allows for further
future cleanups.
"We've secretly replaced their regular MODVERSIONS with nothing at
all, let's see if they notice"
