0f23124aaa bonding: add slave_changelink support and use it for queue_id
This patch adds support for slave_changelink to the bonding and uses it
to give the ability to change the queue_id of the enslaved devices via
netlink. It sets slave_maxtype and uses bond_changelink as a prototype for
bond_slave_changelink.
Example/test command after the iproute2 patch:
 ip link set eth0 type bond_slave queue_id 10

d09d3038a3 net: systemport: tell RXCHK if we are using Broadcom tags
When Broadcom tags are enabled, e.g: when interfaced to an Ethernet
switch, make sure that we tell the RXCHK engine that it should be
expecting a 4-bytes Broadcom tag after the Ethernet MAC Source Address.

Use netdev_uses_dsa() to check for that condition since that will tell
us if a switch is attached to our network interface.

afb84b6261 pktgen: add flag NO_TIMESTAMP to disable timestamping
Then testing the TX limits of the stack, then it is useful to
be-able to disable the do_gettimeofday() timetamping on every packet.

This implements a pktgen flag NO_TIMESTAMP which will disable this
call to do_gettimeofday().

The performance change on (my system E5-2695) with skb_clone=0, goes
from TX 2,423,751 pps to 2,567,165 pps with flag NO_TIMESTAMP. Thus,
the cost of do_gettimeofday() or saving is approx 23 nanosec.

a5325ae5b8 tipc: add name distributor resiliency queue
TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.

In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".

In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.

The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from
experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there
is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.

53fda7f7f9 Merge branch 'xmit_list'
David Miller says:

====================
net: Make dev_hard_start_xmit() work fundamentally on lists

After this patch set, dev_hard_start_xmit() will work fundemantally on
any and all SKB lists.

This opens the path for a clean implementation of pulling multiple
packets out during qdisc_restart(), and then passing that blob in one
shot to dev_hard_start_xmit().

There were two main architectural blockers to this:

1) The GSO handling, we kept the original GSO head SKB around simply
   because dev_hard_start_xmit() had no way to communicate to the
   caller how far into the segmented list it was able to go.  Now it
   can, so the head GSO can be liberated immediately.

   All of the special GSO head SKB destructor et al. handling goes
   away too.

2) Validate of VLAN, CSUM, and segmentation characteristics was being
   performed inside of dev_hard_start_xmit().  If want to truly batch,
   we have to let the higher levels to this.  In particular, this is
   now dequeue_skb()'s job.

And with those two issues out of the way, it should now be trivial to
build experiments on top of this patch set, all of the framework
should be there now.  You could do something as simple as:

	skb = q->dequeue(q);
	if (skb)
		skb = validate_xmit_skb(skb, qdisc_dev(q));
	if (skb) {
		struct sk_buff *new, *head = skb;
		int limit = 5;

		do {
			new = q->dequeue(q);
			if (new)
				new = validate_xmit_skb(new, qdisc_dev(q));
			if (new) {
				skb->next = new;
				skb = new;
			}
		} while (new && --limit);
		skb = head;
	}

inside of the else branch of dequeue_skb().

7f2e870f2a net: Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.
There is a slight policy change happening here as well.

The previous code would drop the entire rest of the GSO skb if any of
them got, for example, a congestion notification.

That makes no sense, anything NET_XMIT_MASK and below is something
like congestion or policing.  And in the congestion case it doesn't
even mean the packet was actually dropped.

Just continue until dev_xmit_complete() evaluates to false.

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI

I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:

- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code

What is in this sixth patch set:

- Clarify the specific requirements of devices returning
  CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h).
- Add csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
  many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
- Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum
  as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed.
- Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new
  csum_level model.
- Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
  and to report new verfied checksums for use in normal path fallback.
- Add proper support to SCTP to accept CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to validate
  header CRC.
- Modify drivers to set skb->csum_level instead of setting
  skb->encapsulation to indicate validation of an encapsulated
  checksum on receive.

v2:

Allocate a new 16 bits for flags in skbuff.

Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt while its greater than zero. If a checksum
is verfied and NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt == 0, we have verified a
deeper checksum than originally indicated in skbuf so increment

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-08-27

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.

Carolyn provides two patches, first changes the wording of the flow
director add/remove and asynchronous failure messages to include the
fd_id to try and add some way to track the operations on a given fd_id.
Second adds a check during handle_link_event for unqualified modules
when link is down and there is a module plugged in.

Anjali provides four patches to i40e/i40evf.  First update flow director
messages so that a user can tell if a filter was added or deleted.  Then
updates the ATR policy to not auto-disable ATR when we have errors in
programming.  The disabling of ATR when we got programming errors was
buggy and was still adding new rules and causing continuous errors.
With this policy change, we flush instead when we see too many errors.
In addition she adds a flow director flush counter to ethtool to help
know how many times the interface had to flush and replay the flow
director filter table.  Updates the driver to ignores a driver
perceived transmit hang if the number of descriptors pending is less
than 4, and instead log a stat when this situation happens.  This is
because the queue progresses forward and the stack never experiences
a real hang in these situations.

Shannon provides three patches for i40e/i40evf, first enables the
l2tsel bit on receive queue contexts that are assigned to VFs so that
the VF can get the stripped VLAN tag.  Then adds a max buffer size
parameter to the print helper to be sure the code knows when to stop.
Lastly, remove the complaint when removing the default MAC VLAN filter.
This was because old firmware had an incorrect MAC VLAN filter that
needed to be replaced at startup, and now newer firmware does not have
this problem.  So now we only add the new filter if the removal
succeeded and no need to complain if the removal fails.

Ashish provides a change to vsi->num_queue_pairs to equal the number
that is configured by the VF.  This limits the number of queues that
are enabled/disabled and fixes the mismatch case for when a VF
configures fewer queues than is allocated to it by the PF.
