0d89d2035f MPLS: Add limited GSO support
In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.

6d0bfe2261 net: ipv6: Add IPv6 support to the ping socket.
This adds the ability to send ICMPv6 echo requests without a
raw socket. The equivalent ability for ICMPv4 was added in
2011.

Instead of having separate code paths for IPv4 and IPv6, make
most of the code in net/ipv4/ping.c dual-stack and only add a
few IPv6-specific bits (like the protocol definition) to a new
net/ipv6/ping.c. Hopefully this will reduce divergence and/or
duplication of bugs in the future.

Caveats:

- Setting options via ancillary data (e.g., using IPV6_PKTINFO
  to specify the outgoing interface) is not yet supported.
- There are no separate security settings for IPv4 and IPv6;
  everything is controlled by /proc/net/ipv4/ping_group_range.
- The proc interface does not yet display IPv6 ping sockets
  properly.

Tested with a patched copy of ping6 and using raw socket calls.
Compiles and works with all of CONFIG_IPV6={n,m,y}.

35f079ebbc tcp: bug fix in proportional rate reduction.
This patch is a fix for a bug triggering newly_acked_sacked < 0
in tcp_ack(.).

The bug is triggered by sacked_out decreasing relative to prior_sacked,
but packets_out remaining the same as pior_packets. This is because the
snapshot of prior_packets is taken after tcp_sacktag_write_queue() while
prior_sacked is captured before tcp_sacktag_write_queue(). The problem
is: tcp_sacktag_write_queue (tcp_match_skb_to_sack() -> tcp_fragment)
adjusts the pcount for packets_out and sacked_out (MSS change or other
reason). As a result, this delta in pcount is reflected in
(prior_sacked - sacked_out) but not in (prior_packets - packets_out).

This patch does the following:
1) initializes prior_packets at the start of tcp_ack() so as to
capture the delta in packets_out created by tcp_fragment.
2) introduces a new "previous_packets_out" variable that snapshots
packets_out right before tcp_clean_rtx_queue, so pkts_acked can be
correctly computed as before.
3) Computes pkts_acked using previous_packets_out, and computes
newly_acked_sacked using prior_packets.

e43ac79a4b sch_tbf: segment too big GSO packets
If a GSO packet has a length above tbf burst limit, the packet
is currently silently dropped.

Current way to handle this is to set the device in non GSO/TSO mode, or
setting high bursts, and its sub optimal.

We can actually segment too big GSO packets, and send individual
segments as tbf parameters allow, allowing for better interoperability.

1cdbcb7957 net: Loosen constraints for recalculating checksum in skb_segment()
This is a generic solution to resolve a specific problem that I have observed.

If the encapsulation of an skb changes then ability to offload checksums
may also change. In particular it may be necessary to perform checksumming
in software.

An example of such a case is where a non-GRE packet is received but
is to be encapsulated and transmitted as GRE.

Another example relates to my proposed support for for packets
that are non-MPLS when received but MPLS when transmitted.

The cost of this change is that the value of the csum variable may be
checked when it previously was not. In the case where the csum variable is
true this is pure overhead. In the case where the csum variable is false it
leads to software checksumming, which I believe also leads to correct
checksums in transmitted packets for the cases described above.

Further analysis:

This patch relies on the return value of can_checksum_protocol()
being correct and in turn the return value of skb_network_protocol(),
used to provide the protocol parameter of can_checksum_protocol(),
being correct. It also relies on the features passed to skb_segment()
and in turn to can_checksum_protocol() being correct.

I believe that this problem has not been observed for VLANs because it
appears that almost all drivers, the exception being xgbe, set
vlan_features such that that the checksum offload support for VLAN packets
is greater than or equal to that of non-VLAN packets.

I wonder if the code in xgbe may be an oversight and the hardware does
support checksumming of VLAN packets.  If so it may be worth updating the
vlan_features of the driver as this patch will force such checksums to be
performed in software rather than hardware.

9f00b2e7cf bridge: only expire the mdb entry when query is received
Currently we arm the expire timer when the mdb entry is added,
however, this causes problem when there is no querier sent
out after that.

So we should only arm the timer when a corresponding query is
received, as suggested by Herbert.

And he also mentioned "if there is no querier then group
subscriptions shouldn't expire. There has to be at least one querier
in the network for this thing to work.  Otherwise it just degenerates
into a non-snooping switch, which is OK."

1c8ad5bfa2 bridge: use the bridge IP addr as source addr for querier
Quote from Adam:
"If it is believed that the use of 0.0.0.0
as the IP address is what is causing strange behaviour on other devices
then is there a good reason that a bridge rather than a router shouldn't
be the active querier? If not then using the bridge IP address and
having the querier enabled by default may be a reasonable solution
(provided that our querier obeys the election rules and shuts up if it
sees a query from a lower IP address that isn't 0.0.0.0). Just because a
device is the elected querier for IGMP doesn't appear to mean it is
required to perform any other routing functions."

And introduce a new troggle for it, as suggested by Herbert.

[ tcp_md5sig_pool_lock is locked twice per incoming packet ]

99bbc70741 rps: selective flow shedding during softnet overflow
A cpu executing the network receive path sheds packets when its input
queue grows to netdev_max_backlog. A single high rate flow (such as a
spoofed source DoS) can exceed a single cpu processing rate and will
degrade throughput of other flows hashed onto the same cpu.

This patch adds a more fine grained hashtable. If the netdev backlog
is above a threshold, IRQ cpus track the ratio of total traffic of
each flow (using 4096 buckets, configurable). The ratio is measured
by counting the number of packets per flow over the last 256 packets
from the source cpu. Any flow that occupies a large fraction of this
(set at 50%) will see packet drop while above the threshold.

Tested:
Setup is a muli-threaded UDP echo server with network rx IRQ on cpu0,
kernel receive (RPS) on cpu0 and application threads on cpus 2--7
each handling 20k req/s. Throughput halves when hit with a 400 kpps
antagonist storm. With this patch applied, antagonist overload is
dropped and the server processes its complete load.

The patch is effective when kernel receive processing is the
bottleneck. The above RPS scenario is a extreme, but the same is
reached with RFS and sufficient kernel processing (iptables, packet
socket tap, ..).

3e59cb0ddf tcp: remove bad timeout logic in fast recovery
tcp_timeout_skb() was intended to trigger fast recovery on timeout,
unfortunately in reality it often causes spurious retransmission
storms during fast recovery. The particular sign is a fast retransmit
over the highest sacked sequence (SND.FACK).

Currently the RTO timer re-arming (as in RFC6298) offers a nice cushion
to avoid spurious timeout: when SND.UNA advances the sender re-arms
RTO and extends the timeout by icsk_rto. The sender does not offset
the time elapsed since the packet at SND.UNA was sent.

But if the next (DUP)ACK arrives later than ~RTTVAR and triggers
tcp_fastretrans_alert(), then tcp_timeout_skb() will mark any packet
sent before the icsk_rto interval lost, including one that's above the
highest sacked sequence. Most likely a large part of scorebard will be
marked.

If most packets are not lost then the subsequent DUPACKs with new SACK
blocks will cause the sender to continue to retransmit packets beyond
SND.FACK spuriously. Even if only one packet is lost the sender may
falsely retransmit almost the entire window.

The situation becomes common in the world of bufferbloat: the RTT
continues to grow as the queue builds up but RTTVAR remains small and
close to the minimum 200ms. If a data packet is lost and the DUPACK
triggered by the next data packet is slightly delayed, then a spurious
retransmission storm forms.

As the original comment on tcp_timeout_skb() suggests: the usefulness
of this feature is questionable. It also wastes cycles walking the
sack scoreboard and is actually harmful because of false recovery.

It's time to remove this.

d2f83e9078 Hoist memcpy_fromiovec/memcpy_toiovec into lib/
ERROR: "memcpy_fromiovec" [drivers/vhost/vhost_scsi.ko] undefined!

That function is only present with CONFIG_NET.  Turns out that
crypto/algif_skcipher.c also uses that outside net, but it actually
needs sockets anyway.

In addition, commit 6d4f0139d6 added
CONFIG_NET dependency to CONFIG_VMCI for memcpy_toiovec, so hoist
that function and revert that commit too.

socket.h already includes uio.h, so no callers need updating; trying
only broke things fo x86_64 randconfig (thanks Fengguang!).

ff0102ee10 net: irda: using kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() to avoid strncpy() issue.
'discovery->data.info' length is 22, NICKNAME_MAX_LEN is 21, so the
strncpy() will always left the last byte of 'discovery->data.info'
uninitialized.

When 'text' length is longer than 21 (NICKNAME_MAX_LEN), if still left
the last byte of 'discovery->data.info' uninitialized, the next
strlen() will cause issue.

Also 'discovery->data' is 'struct irda_device_info' which defined in
"include/uapi/...", it may copy to user mode, so need whole initialized.

All together, need use kzalloc() instead of kmalloc() to initialize all
members firstly.

caeaba7900 ipv6: add support of peer address
This patch adds the support of peer address for IPv6. For example, it is
possible to specify the remote end of a 6inY tunnel.
This was already possible in IPv4:
 ip addr add ip1 peer ip2 dev dev1

The peer address is specified with IFA_ADDRESS and the local address with
IFA_LOCAL (like explained in include/uapi/linux/if_addr.h).
Note that the API is not changed, because before this patch, it was not
possible to specify two different addresses in IFA_LOCAL and IFA_REMOTE.
There is a small change for the dump: if the peer is different from ::,
IFA_ADDRESS will contain the peer address instead of the local address.

6b21e1b77d netlabel: improve domain mapping validation
The net/netlabel/netlabel_domainhash.c:netlbl_domhsh_add() function
does not properly validate new domain hash entries resulting in
potential problems when an administrator attempts to add an invalid
entry.  One such problem, as reported by Vlad Halilov, is a kernel
BUG (found in netlabel_domainhash.c:netlbl_domhsh_audit_add()) when
adding an IPv6 outbound mapping with a CIPSO configuration.

This patch corrects this problem by adding the necessary validation
code to netlbl_domhsh_add() via the newly created
netlbl_domhsh_validate() function.

Ideally this patch should also be pushed to the currently active
-stable trees.

In fact, before the initial commit - the one that is reverted -, this

'skb->dev = dev' is already done in eth_type_trans(), which is call just
after.

72822225bd batman-adv: Fix rcu_barrier() miss due to double call_rcu() in TT code
rcu_barrier() only waits for the currently scheduled rcu functions
to finish - it won't wait for any function scheduled via another
call_rcu() within an rcu scheduled function.

Unfortunately our batadv_tt_orig_list_entry_free_ref() does just that,
via a batadv_orig_node_free_ref() call, leading to our rcu_barrier()
call potentially missing such a batadv_orig_node_free_ref().

This patch fixes this issue by calling the batadv_orig_node_free_rcu()
directly from the rcu callback, removing the unnecessary, additional
call_rcu() layer here.

d2cf43674e tcp: speedup tcp_fixup_rcvbuf()
tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() contains a loop to estimate initial socket
rcv space needed for a given mss. With large MTU (like 64K on lo),
we can loop ~500 times and consume a lot of cpu cycles.

perf top of 200 concurrent netperf -t TCP_CRR

5.62%  netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] tcp_init_buffer_space
1.71%  netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] _raw_spin_lock
1.55%  netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] kmem_cache_free
1.51%  netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] tcp_transmit_skb
1.50%  netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]  [k] tcp_ack

Lets use a 100% factor, and remove the loop.

100% is needed anyway for tcp_adv_win_scale=1
default value, and is also the maximum factor.

6ff50cd555 tcp: gso: do not generate out of order packets
GSO TCP handler has following issues :

1) ooo_okay from original GSO packet is duplicated to all segments
2) segments (but the last one) are orphaned, so transmit path can not
get transmit queue number from the socket. This happens if GSO
segmentation is done before stacked device for example.

Result is we can send packets from a given TCP flow to different TX
queues (if using multiqueue NICS). This generates OOO problems and
spurious SACK & retransmits.

Fix this by keeping socket pointer set for all segments.

This means that every segment must also have a destructor, and the
original gso skb truesize must be split on all segments, to keep
precise sk->sk_wmem_alloc accounting.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains three Netfilter fixes and update
for the MAINTAINER file for your net tree, they are:

* Fix crash if nf_log_packet is called from conntrack, in that case
  both interfaces are NULL, from Hans Schillstrom. This bug introduced
  with the logging netns support in the previous merge window.

* Fix compilation of nf_log and nf_queue without CONFIG_PROC_FS,
  from myself. This bug was introduced in the previous merge window
  with the new netns support for the netfilter logging infrastructure.

* Fix possible crash in xt_TCPOPTSTRIP due to missing sanity
  checkings to validate that the TCP header is well-formed, from
  myself. I can find this bug in 2.6.25, probably it's been there
  since the beginning. I'll pass this to -stable.

* Update MAINTAINER file to point to new nf trees at git.kernel.org,
  remove Harald and use M: instead of P: (now obsolete tag) to
  keep Jozsef in the list of people.

Please, consider pulling this. Thanks!

3670946fe2 mac80211: fix HT beacon-based channel switch handling
When an HT AP is advertising channel switch in a beacon, it
doesn't (and shouldn't, according to 802.11-2012 Table 8-20)
include a secondary channel offset element. The only possible
interpretation is that the previous secondary channel offset
remains valid, so use that when switching channel based only
on beacon information.

VHT requires the Wide Bandwidth Channel Switch subelement to
be present in the Channel Switch Wrapper element, so the code
for that is probably ok (see 802.11ac Draft 4, 8.4.2.165.)
