commit 8f0ea0fe3a036a47767f9c80e (snmp: reduce percpu needs by 50%)
reduced snmp array size to 1, so technically it doesn't have to be
an array any more. What's more, after the following commit:
commit 933393f58fef9963eac61db8093689544e29a600
Date: Thu Dec 22 11:58:51 2011 -0600
percpu: Remove irqsafe_cpu_xxx variants
We simply say that regular this_cpu use must be safe regardless of
preemption and interrupt state. That has no material change for x86
and s390 implementations of this_cpu operations. However, arches that
do not provide their own implementation for this_cpu operations will
now get code generated that disables interrupts instead of preemption.
probably no arch wants to have SNMP_ARRAY_SZ == 2. At least after
almost 3 years, no one complains.
So, just convert the array to a single pointer and remove snmp_mib_init()
and snmp_mib_free() as well.

Create a general __skb_checksum_validate function (actually a
macro) to subsume the various checksum_init functions. This
function can either init the checksum, or do the full validation
(logically checksum_init+skb_check_complete)-- a flag specifies
if full vaidation is performed. Also, there is a flag to the function
to indicate that zero checksums are allowed (to support optional
UDP checksums).
Added several stub functions for calling __skb_checksum_validate.

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-05-02
Please pull this batch of updates intended for the 3.16 stream...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"In this round we have a large number of small features and
improvements from people too numerous to list here. The only really
bit thing is Michał and Luca's CSA work (including changing how
interface combination verification is done)."
For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"Here goes some patches for the -next release. There is nothing
really special for this pull request, just a bunch of refactors,
fixes and clean ups."
For the ath10k/ath6kl bits, Kalle says:
"For ath6kl Kalle fixed a bunch of checkpatch warnings.
In ath10k we had more changes, major ones being:
* fix memory allocation failures after a firmware crash (Michal)
* some rework of DFS configuration to enable it correctly in all cases
(Michal)
* add a new firmware crash option to make it possible to crash 10.1
firmware for testing purposes (Marek P)
* fix RTS/CTS protection in certain cases (Marek K)
* fix wrong RSSI and rate reporting in some cases (Janusz)
* fix firmware stats reporting (Chun, Ben & Bartosz)"
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have here a bunch of unrelated things. I disabled support for
-7.ucode which means that I can removed a lot of code. Eliad has
a brand new feature: we reduce the Tx power when the link allows -
this reduces our power consumption. The regular changes in power and
scan area. One interesting thing though is the patches from Johannes,
we have now GRO which allows to increase our throughput in TCP Rx. The
main advantage is that it reduces the number of TCP Acks - these TCP
Acks are completely useless when we are using A-MPDU since the first
packet of the A-MPDU generates a TCP Ack which is made obsolete by
the next packets."
Along with that, there are a variety of updates to b43, mwifiex,
rtl8180 and wil6210 drivers and a handful of other updates here
and there.
Please let me know if there are problems!

The current code is a bit hard to parse on which registers can be used,
how they are mapped and all play together. It makes much more sense to
define this a bit more clearly so that the code is a bit more intuitive.
This patch cleans this up, and makes naming a bit more consistent among
the code. This also allows for moving some of the defines into the header
file. Clearing of A and X registers in __sk_run_filter() do not get a
particular register name assigned as they have not an 'official' function,
but rather just result from the concrete initial mapping of old BPF
programs. Since for BPF helper functions for BPF_CALL we already use
small letters, so be consistent here as well. No functional changes.

This patch simplifies label naming for the BPF jump-table.
When we define labels via DL(), we just concatenate/textify
the combination of instruction opcode which consists of the
class, subclass, word size, target register and so on. Each
time we leave BPF_ prefix intact, so that e.g. the preprocessor
generates a label BPF_ALU_BPF_ADD_BPF_X for DL(BPF_ALU, BPF_ADD,
BPF_X) whereas a label name of ALU_ADD_X is much more easy
to grasp. Pure cleanup only.

Commit e114a710aa505 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited checking to improve

tcp_is_cwnd_limited() and its callers.
This patch does the removal as promised.

Yuchung discovered tcp_is_cwnd_limited() was returning false in
slow start phase even if the application filled the socket write queue.
All congestion modules take into account tcp_is_cwnd_limited()
before increasing cwnd, so this behavior limits slow start from
probing the bandwidth at full speed.
The problem is that even if write queue is full (aka we are _not_
application limited), cwnd can be under utilized if TSO should auto
defer or TCP Small queues decided to hold packets.
So the in_flight can be kept to smaller value, and we can get to the
point tcp_is_cwnd_limited() returns false.
With TCP Small Queues and FQ/pacing, this issue is more visible.
We fix this by having tcp_cwnd_validate(), which is supposed to track
such things, take into account unsent_segs, the number of segs that we
are not sending at the moment due to TSO or TSQ, but intend to send
real soon. Then when we are cwnd-limited, remember this fact while we
are processing the window of ACKs that comes back.
For example, suppose we have a brand new connection with cwnd=10; we
are in slow start, and we send a flight of 9 packets. By the time we
have received ACKs for all 9 packets we want our cwnd to be 18.
We implement this by setting tp->lsnd_pending to 9, and
considering ourselves to be cwnd-limited while cwnd is less than
twice tp->lsnd_pending (2*9 -> 18).
This makes tcp_is_cwnd_limited() more understandable, by removing
the GSO/TSO kludge, that tried to work around the issue.
Note the in_flight parameter can be removed in a followup cleanup
patch.

When actions are attached to a filter, they are a part of the filter
itself, so when changing a filter we should allow to overwrite the actions
inside as well.
In my specific case, when I tried to _append_ a new action to an existing
filter which already has an action, I got EEXIST since kernel refused
to overwrite the existing one in kernel.
This patch checks if we are changing the filter checking NLM_F_CREATE flag
(Sigh, filters don't use NLM_F_REPLACE...) and then passes the boolean down
to actions. This fixes the problem above.

Since there are frequency bands (e.g. 5.9GHz) allowing channels
with only 10 or 5 MHz bandwidth, this patch adds attributes that
allow keeping track about this information.
When channel attributes are reported to user-space, make sure to
not break old tools, i.e. if the 'split wiphy dump' is enabled,
report the extra attributes (if present) describing the bandwidth
restrictions. If the 'split wiphy dump' is not enabled,
completely omit those channels that have flags set to either
IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_10MHZ or IEEE80211_CHAN_NO_20MHZ.
Add the check for new bandwidth restriction flags in
cfg80211_chandef_usable() to comply with the restrictions.

This patch allows to switch the netns when packet is encapsulated or
decapsulated.
The vxlan socket is openned into the i/o netns, ie into the netns where
encapsulated packets are received. The socket lookup is done into this netns to
find the corresponding vxlan tunnel. After decapsulation, the packet is
injecting into the corresponding interface which may stand to another netns.
When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.
Configuration example:
ip netns add netns1
ip netns exec netns1 ip link set lo up
ip link add vxlan10 type vxlan id 10 group 239.0.0.10 dev eth0 dstport 0
ip link set vxlan10 netns netns1
ip netns exec netns1 ip addr add 192.168.0.249/24 broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev vxlan10
ip netns exec netns1 ip link set vxlan10 up

Add a netlink multicast socket with one group to kaudit for "best-effort"
delivery to read-only userspace clients such as systemd, in addition to the
existing bidirectional unicast auditd userspace client.
Currently, auditd is intended to use the CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL and CAP_AUDIT_WRITE
capabilities, but actually uses CAP_NET_ADMIN. The CAP_AUDIT_READ capability
is added for use by read-only AUDIT_NLGRP_READLOG netlink multicast group
clients to the kaudit subsystem.
This will safely give access to services such as systemd to consume audit logs
while ensuring write access remains restricted for integrity.

Have the netlink per-protocol optional bind function return an int error code
rather than void to signal a failure.
This will enable netlink protocols to perform extra checks including
capabilities and permissions verifications when updating memberships in
multicast groups.
In netlink_bind() and netlink_setsockopt() the call to the per-protocol bind
function was moved above the multicast group update to prevent any access to
the multicast socket groups before checking with the per-protocol bind
function. This will enable the per-protocol bind function to be used to check
permissions which could be denied before making them available, and to avoid
the messy job of undoing the addition should the per-protocol bind function
fail.
The netfilter subsystem seems to be the only one currently using the
per-protocol bind function.

(instead of an ISA opcode) because (a) it is simpler, (b) allows easy

"get a random number" as a instruction, but as an OS call.
The main use for this ancillary load is to perform random packet sampling.

"Here are some driver core fixes for 3.15-rc2. Also in here are some
documentation updates, as well as an API removal that had to wait for
after -rc1 due to the cleanups coming into you from multiple developer
trees (this one and the PPC tree.)
All have been in linux next successfully"

David Vrabel identified a regression when using automatic NUMA balancing
under Xen whereby page table entries were getting corrupted due to the
use of native PTE operations. Quoting him
Xen PV guest page tables require that their entries use machine
addresses if the preset bit (_PAGE_PRESENT) is set, and (for
successful migration) non-present PTEs must use pseudo-physical
addresses. This is because on migration MFNs in present PTEs are
translated to PFNs (canonicalised) so they may be translated back
to the new MFN in the destination domain (uncanonicalised).
pte_mknonnuma(), pmd_mknonnuma(), pte_mknuma() and pmd_mknuma()
set and clear the _PAGE_PRESENT bit using pte_set_flags(),
pte_clear_flags(), etc.
In a Xen PV guest, these functions must translate MFNs to PFNs
when clearing _PAGE_PRESENT and translate PFNs to MFNs when setting
_PAGE_PRESENT.
His suggested fix converted p[te|md]_[set|clear]_flags to using
paravirt-friendly ops but this is overkill. He suggested an alternative
of using p[te|md]_modify in the NUMA page table operations but this is
does more work than necessary and would require looking up a VMA for
protections.
This patch modifies the NUMA page table operations to use paravirt
friendly operations to set/clear the flags of interest. Unfortunately
this will take a performance hit when updating the PTEs on
CONFIG_PARAVIRT but I do not see a way around it that does not break
Xen.

Currently, it is possible to create an SCTP socket, then switch
auth_enable via sysctl setting to 1 and crash the system on connect:

Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
What happens while auth_enable=0 in that case is, that
ep->auth_hmacs is initialized to NULL in sctp_auth_init_hmacs()
when endpoint is being created.
After that point, if an admin switches over to auth_enable=1,
the machine can crash due to NULL pointer dereference during
reception of an INIT chunk. When we enter sctp_process_init()
via sctp_sf_do_5_1B_init() in order to respond to an INIT chunk,
the INIT verification succeeds and while we walk and process
all INIT params via sctp_process_param() we find that
net->sctp.auth_enable is set, therefore do not fall through,
but invoke sctp_auth_asoc_set_default_hmac() instead, and thus,
dereference what we have set to NULL during endpoint
initialization phase.
The fix is to make auth_enable immutable by caching its value
during endpoint initialization, so that its original value is
being carried along until destruction. The bug seems to originate
from the very first days.
Fix in joint work with Daniel Borkmann.
