Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP
generator.
linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge
cost on servers disabling MTU discovery.
1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes
2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs,
with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load.
3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth
is about 20.
4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of
not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in
the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id())
5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively.
IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect'
Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time,
so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of
fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments
with a recycled ID.
We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP
as a key.
ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it
belongs (it is only used from this file)
secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed.
Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid
unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments.

This change provides a function to be used in order to break the
ndo_set_rx_mode call into a set of address add and remove calls. The code
is based on the implementation of dev_uc_sync/dev_mc_sync. Since they
essentially do the same thing but with only one dev I simply named my
functions __dev_uc_sync/__dev_mc_sync.
I also implemented an unsync version of the functions as well to allow for
cleanup on close.

Commit 9739eef13c92 ("net: filter: make BPF conversion more readable")
started to introduce helper macros similar to BPF_STMT()/BPF_JUMP()
macros from classic BPF.
However, quite some statements in the filter conversion functions
remained in the old style which gives a mixture of block macros and
non block macros in the code. This patch makes the block macros itself
more readable by using explicit member initialization, and converts
the remaining ones where possible to remain in a more consistent state.

This patch finally allows us to get rid of the BPF_S_* enum.
Currently, the code performs unnecessary encode and decode
workarounds in seccomp and filter migration itself when a filter
is being attached in order to overcome BPF_S_* encoding which
is not used anymore by the new interpreter resp. JIT compilers.
Keeping it around would mean that also in future we would need
to extend and maintain this enum and related encoders/decoders.
We can get rid of all that and save us these operations during
filter attaching. Naturally, also JIT compilers need to be updated
by this.
Before JIT conversion is being done, each compiler checks if A
is being loaded at startup to obtain information if it needs to
emit instructions to clear A first. Since BPF extensions are a
subset of BPF_LD | BPF_{W,H,B} | BPF_ABS variants, case statements
for extensions can be removed at that point. To ease and minimalize
code changes in the classic JITs, we have introduced bpf_anc_helper().
Tested with test_bpf on x86_64 (JIT, int), s390x (JIT, int),
arm (JIT, int), i368 (int), ppc64 (JIT, int); for sparc we
unfortunately didn't have access, but changes are analogous to
the rest.
Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

The “affinity hint” mechanism is used by the user space
daemon, irqbalancer, to indicate a preferred CPU mask for irqs.
Irqbalancer can use this hint to balance the irqs between the
cpus indicated by the mask.
We wish the HCA to preferentially map the IRQs it uses to numa cores
close to it. To accomplish this, we use cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(), that
sets the affinity hint according the following policy:
First it maps IRQs to “close” numa cores. If these are exhausted, the
remaining IRQs are mapped to “far” numa cores.

This function sets the n'th cpu - local cpu's first.
For example: in a 16 cores server with even cpu's local, will get the
following values:
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(0, numa, cpumask) => cpu 0 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(1, numa, cpumask) => cpu 2 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(7, numa, cpumask) => cpu 14 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(8, numa, cpumask) => cpu 1 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(9, numa, cpumask) => cpu 3 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(15, numa, cpumask) => cpu 15 is set
Curently this function will be used by multi queue networking devices to
calculate the irq affinity mask, such that as many local cpu's as
possible will be utilized to handle the mq device irq's.

Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
This small patchset contains three accumulated Netfilter/IPVS updates,
they are:
1) Refactorize common NAT code by encapsulating it into a helper
function, similarly to what we do in other conntrack extensions,
from Florian Westphal.
2) A minor format string mismatch fix for IPVS, from Masanari Iida.
3) Add quota support to the netfilter accounting infrastructure, now
you can add quotas to accounting objects via the nfnetlink interface
and use them from iptables. You can also listen to quota
notifications from userspace. This enhancement from Mathieu Poirier.

John W. Linville says:
====================
Please pull this batch of updates intended for 3.16...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"Here I just have Heikki's rfkill GPIO cleanups.
The ARM/tegra patch is OK with the maintainer (Stephen). Let me know of
any problems."
and;
"We have a whole bunch of work on CSA by Andrei, Luca and Michal, but
unfortunately it doesn't seem quite complete yet so it's still disabled.
There's some TDLS work from Arik, and the rest is mostly minor fixes and
cleanups."
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"This is the NFC pull request for 3.16. We have:
- STMicroeectronics st21nfca support. The st21nfca is an HCI chipset and
thus relies on the HCI stack. This submission provides support for tag
redaer/writer mode (including Type 5) and device tree bindings.
- PM runtime support and a bunch of bug fixes for TI's trf7970a.
- Device tree support for NXP's pn544. Legacy platform data support is
obviously kept intact.
- NFC Tag type 4B support to the NFC Digital stack.
- SOCK_RAW type support to the raw NFC socket, and allow NCI
sniffing from that. This can be extended to report HCI frames and also
proprietarry ones like e.g. the pn533 ones."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"Eran continues to work on new devices, Eyal is still digging in
the rate control stuff, and Johannes added new functionality to the
debug system we have in place now along with a few cleanups he made
on the way. That's pretty much it."
and;
"Avri continues to work on the power code and Eran is improving the
NVM handling as a preparations for new devices on which he works
with Liad. Luca cleans up a bit the code while working on CSA. I have
the regular BT Coex stuff and a small lockdep fix. Johannes has his
regular amount of clean ups and improvements, the main one is the
ability to leave 2 chains open to improve diversity and hence the
throughput in high attenuation scenarios."
and;
"The regular amount of housekeeping here. I merged iwlwifi-fixes.git to
be able to add the patch you didn't want in wireless.git at that stage
of the -rc cycle. Luca has a few preparations for CSA implementation
and also what seems to be a bugfix for P2P but hasn't caused issues
we could notice."
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"For ath10k Michal did various small fixes on how we handle
hardware/firmware problems and he also fixed two memory leaks."
Also included are a couple of pulls from the wireless tree to
avoid/resolve merge issues...

The sk_unattached_filter_create() API is used by BPF filters that
are not directly attached or related to sockets, and are used in
team, ptp, xt_bpf, cls_bpf, etc. As such all users do their own
internal managment of obtaining filter blocks and thus already
have them in kernel memory and set up before calling into
sk_unattached_filter_create(). As a result, due to __user annotation
in sock_fprog, sparse triggers false positives (incorrect type in
assignment [different address space]) when filters are set up before
passing them to sk_unattached_filter_create(). Therefore, let
sk_unattached_filter_create() API use sock_fprog_kern to overcome
this issue.

Lets get rid of this macro. After commit 5bcfedf06f7f ("net: filter:
simplify label names from jump-table"), labels have become more
readable due to omission of BPF_ prefix but at the same time more
generic, so that things like `git grep -n` would not find them. As
a middle path, lets get rid of the DL macro as it's not strictly
needed and would otherwise just hide the full name.

RFC 6935 permits zero checksums to be used in IPv6 however this is
recommended only for certain tunnel protocols, it does not make
checksums completely optional like they are in IPv4.
This patch restricts the use of IPv6 zero checksums that was previously
intoduced. no_check6_tx and no_check6_rx have been added to control
the use of checksums in UDP6 RX and TX path. The normal
sk_no_check_{rx,tx} settings are not used (this avoids ambiguity when
dealing with a dual stack socket).
A helper function has been added (udp_set_no_check6) which can be
called by tunnel impelmentations to all zero checksums (send on the
socket, and accept them as valid).

through ip tool.
o min_tx_rate puts lower limit on the VF bandwidth. VF is guaranteed
to have a bandwidth of at least this value.
max_tx_rate puts cap on the VF bandwidth. VF can have a bandwidth
of up to this value.
o A new handler set_vf_rate for attr IFLA_VF_RATE has been introduced
which takes 4 arguments:
netdev, VF number, min_tx_rate, max_tx_rate
o ndo_set_vf_rate replaces ndo_set_vf_tx_rate handler.
o Drivers that currently implement ndo_set_vf_tx_rate should now call
ndo_set_vf_rate instead and reject attempt to set a minimum bandwidth
greater than 0 for IFLA_VF_TX_RATE when IFLA_VF_RATE is not yet
implemented by driver.
o If user enters only one of either min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, then,
userland should read back the other value from driver and set both
for IFLA_VF_RATE.
Drivers that have not yet implemented IFLA_VF_RATE should always
return min_tx_rate as 0 when read from ip tool.
o If both IFLA_VF_TX_RATE and IFLA_VF_RATE options are specified, then
IFLA_VF_RATE should override.
o Idea is to have consistent display of rate values to user.
o Usage example: -

pull request (net-next): ipsec-next 2014-05-22
This is the last ipsec pull request before I leave for
a three weeks vacation tomorrow. David, can you please
take urgent ipsec patches directly into net/net-next
during this time?
I'll continue to run the ipsec/ipsec-next trees as soon
as I'm back.
1) Simplify the xfrm audit handling, from Tetsuo Handa.
2) Codingstyle cleanup for xfrm_output, from abian Frederick.
Please pull or let me know if there are problems.

All in-tree drivers have been converted to use the new pair of
functions: of_is_fixed_phy_link() plus of_phy_register_fixed_link(), we
can now safely remove of_phy_connect_fixed_link.

When combining real_dev's features and vlan_features, simple
bitwise AND is used. This doesn't work well for checksum
offloading features as if one set has NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and the
other NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and/or NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM, we end up with
no checksum offloading. However, from the logical point of view
(how can_checksum_protocol() works), NETIF_F_HW_CSUM contains
the functionality of NETIF_F_IP_CSUM and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM so
that the result should be IP/IPV6.
Add helper function netdev_intersect_features() implementing
this logic and use it in vlan_dev_fix_features().

"NFC: 3.16: First pull request
This is the NFC pull request for 3.16. We have:
- STMicroeectronics st21nfca support. The st21nfca is an HCI chipset and
thus relies on the HCI stack. This submission provides support for tag
redaer/writer mode (including Type 5) and device tree bindings.
- PM runtime support and a bunch of bug fixes for TI's trf7970a.
- Device tree support for NXP's pn544. Legacy platform data support is
obviously kept intact.
- NFC Tag type 4B support to the NFC Digital stack.
- SOCK_RAW type support to the raw NFC socket, and allow NCI
sniffing from that. This can be extended to report HCI frames and also
proprietarry ones like e.g. the pn533 ones."

====================
Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
1) Add set element update notification via netlink, from Arturo Borrero.
2) Put all object updates in one single message batch that is sent to
kernel-space. Before this patch only rules where included in the batch.
This series also introduces the generic transaction infrastructure so
updates to all objects (tables, chains, rules and sets) are applied in
an all-or-nothing fashion, these series from me.
3) Defer release of objects via call_rcu to reduce the time required to
commit changes. The assumption is that all objects are destroyed in
reverse order to ensure that dependencies betweem them are fulfilled
(ie. rules and sets are destroyed first, then chains, and finally
tables).
4) Allow to match by bridge port name, from Tomasz Bursztyka. This series
include two patches to prepare this new feature.
5) Implement the proper set selection based on the characteristics of the
data. The new infrastructure also allows you to specify your preferences
in terms of memory and computational complexity so the underlying set
type is also selected according to your needs, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Several cleanup patches for nft expressions, including one minor possible
compilation breakage due to missing mark support, also from Patrick.

Experience with the recent e114a710aa50 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited
checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are
common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than
necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too
large, among other things.
The main problems seemed to be:
(1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the
connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit
sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding
packets.
(2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of
outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not
needed).
This commit improves both of these, by:
(1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly
track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window
("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the
moment we finished sending that flight.
(2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding
packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance
mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
value is still valid.

Kernel API for classic BPF socket filters is:
sk_unattached_filter_create() - validate classic BPF, convert, JIT
SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
sk_unattached_filter_destroy() - destroy socket filter
Cleanup internal BPF kernel API as following:
sk_filter_select_runtime() - final step of internal BPF creation.
Try to JIT internal BPF program, if JIT is not available select interpreter
SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
sk_filter_free() - free internal BPF program
Disallow direct calls to BPF interpreter. Execution of the BPF program should
be done with SK_RUN_FILTER() macro.
Example of internal BPF create, run, destroy:
struct sk_filter *fp;
fp = kzalloc(sk_filter_size(prog_len), GFP_KERNEL);
memcpy(fp->insni, prog, prog_len * sizeof(fp->insni[0]));
fp->len = prog_len;
sk_filter_select_runtime(fp);
SK_RUN_FILTER(fp, ctx);
sk_filter_free(fp);
Sockets, seccomp, testsuite, tracing are using different ways to populate
sk_filter, so first steps of program creation are not common.

"Three more patches to fix cgroup_freezer breakage due to the recent
cgroup internal locking changes - an operation cgroup_freezer was
using now requires sleepable context and cgroup_freezer was invoking
that while holding a spin lock. cgroup_freezer was using an overly
elaborate hierarchical locking scheme.
While it's possible to convert the hierarchical spinlocks directly to
mutexes, this patch simplifies the overall locking so that it uses a
global mutex. This has the added benefit of avoiding iterating
potentially huge number of tasks under a spinlock. While the patch is
on the larger side in the devel cycle, the changes made are mostly
straight-forward and the locking logic is a lot simpler afterwards"

Add get_expected_throughput() API to mac80211 so that each
driver can implement its own version based on the RC
algorithm they are using (might be using an HW RC algo).
The API returns a value expressed in Kbps.
Also, add the new get_expected_throughput() member
to the rate_control_ops structure in order to be
able to query the RC algorithm (this patch provides an
implementation of this API for both minstrel and
minstrel_ht).
The related member in the station_info object is now
filled accordingly when dumping a station.

The upper timer_interval limit is arbitrary and much higher
than anything usable in the real world. Reducing it from 15s
to ~4s to make the timer_interval fit in an u32 does not make
much difference. The limit is still outside the practical
bounds.
This eliminates the need for a 64bit timer_interval, fixing a
build error related to 64bit division:

Users may need information about the expected throughput
towards a given peer.
This value is supposed to consider the size overhead
generated by the 802.11 header.
This value is exported in kbps through the get_station() API
by including it into the station_info object.
Moreover, it is sent to user space when replying to the
nl80211 GET_STATION command.
This information will be useful to the batman-adv module
which will use it for its new metric computation.
