b4ad7baa01 bridge: del external_learned fdbs from device on flush or ageout
We need to delete from offload the device externally learnded fdbs when any
one of these events happen:

1) Bridge ages out fdb.  (When bridge is doing ageing vs. device doing
ageing.  If device is doing ageing, it would send SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL
directly).

2) STP state change flushes fdbs on port.

3) User uses sysfs interface to flush fdbs from bridge or bridge port:

	echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_DEV/bridge/flush
	echo 1 >/sys/class/net/BR_PORT/brport/flush

4) Offload driver send event SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL to delete fdb entry.

For rocker, we can now get called to delete fdb entry in wait and nowait
contexts, so set NOWAIT flag when deleting fdb entry.

07f4c90062 tcp/dccp: try to not exhaust ip_local_port_range in connect()
A long standing problem on busy servers is the tiny available TCP port
range (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range) and the default
sequential allocation of source ports in connect() system call.

If a host is having a lot of active TCP sessions, chances are
very high that all ports are in use by at least one flow,
and subsequent bind(0) attempts fail, or have to scan a big portion of
space to find a slot.

In this patch, I changed the starting point in __inet_hash_connect()
so that we try to favor even [1] ports, leaving odd ports for bind()
users.

We still perform a sequential search, so there is no guarantee, but
if connect() targets are very different, end result is we leave
more ports available to bind(), and we spread them all over the range,
lowering time for both connect() and bind() to find a slot.

This strategy only works well if /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
is even, ie if start/end values have different parity.

Therefore, default /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range was changed to
32768 - 60999 (instead of 32768 - 61000)

There is no change on security aspects here, only some poor hashing
schemes could be eventually impacted by this change.

[1] : The odd/even property depends on ip_local_port_range values parity

282fb58947 pktgen: add sample script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh
Add the pktgen samples script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh that
demonstrates generating packets on multiqueue NICs.

Specifically notice the options "-t" that specifies how many
kernel threads to activate.  Also notice the flag QUEUE_MAP_CPU,
which cause the SKB TX queue to be mapped to the CPU running the
kernel thread.  For best scalability people are also encourage to
map NIC IRQ /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity to CPU number.

Usage example with "-t" 4 threads and help:
 ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -t 4

Usage: ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh [-vx] -i ethX
  -i : ($DEV)       output interface/device (required)
  -s : ($PKT_SIZE)  packet size
  -d : ($DEST_IP)   destination IP
  -m : ($DST_MAC)   destination MAC-addr
  -t : ($THREADS)   threads to start
  -c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB
  -b : ($BURST)     HW level bursting of SKBs
  -v : ($VERBOSE)   verbose
  -x : ($DEBUG)     debug

492135557d tcp: add rfc3168, section 6.1.1.1. fallback
This work as a follow-up of commit f7b3bec6f5 ("net: allow setting ecn
via routing table") and adds RFC3168 section 6.1.1.1. fallback for outgoing
ECN connections. In other words, this work adds a retry with a non-ECN
setup SYN packet, as suggested from the RFC on the first timeout:

  [...] A host that receives no reply to an ECN-setup SYN within the
  normal SYN retransmission timeout interval MAY resend the SYN and
  any subsequent SYN retransmissions with CWR and ECE cleared. [...]

Schematic client-side view when assuming the server is in tcp_ecn=2 mode,
that is, Linux default since 2009 via commit 255cac91c3 ("tcp: extend
ECN sysctl to allow server-side only ECN"):

 1) Normal ECN-capable path:

    SYN ECE CWR ----->
                <----- SYN ACK ECE
            ACK ----->

 2) Path with broken middlebox, when client has fallback:

    SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
                      (timeout, rtx)
            SYN ----->
                <----- SYN ACK
            ACK ----->

In case we would not have the fallback implemented, the middlebox drop
point would basically end up as:

    SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
                      (timeout, rtx)
    SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
                      (timeout, rtx)
    SYN ECE CWR ----X crappy middlebox drops packet
                      (timeout, rtx)

In any case, it's rather a smaller percentage of sites where there would
occur such additional setup latency: it was found in end of 2014 that ~56%
of IPv4 and 65% of IPv6 servers of Alexa 1 million list would negotiate
ECN (aka tcp_ecn=2 default), 0.42% of these webservers will fail to connect
when trying to negotiate with ECN (tcp_ecn=1) due to timeouts, which the
fallback would mitigate with a slight latency trade-off. Recent related
paper on this topic:

  Brian Trammell, Mirja Kühlewind, Damiano Boppart, Iain Learmonth,
  Gorry Fairhurst, and Richard Scheffenegger:
    "Enabling Internet-Wide Deployment of Explicit Congestion Notification."
    Proc. PAM 2015, New York.
  http://ecn.ethz.ch/ecn-pam15.pdf

Thus, when net.ipv4.tcp_ecn=1 is being set, the patch will perform RFC3168,
section 6.1.1.1. fallback on timeout. For users explicitly not wanting this
which can be in DC use case, we add a net.ipv4.tcp_ecn_fallback knob that
allows for disabling the fallback.

tp->ecn_flags are not being cleared in tcp_ecn_clear_syn() on output, but
rather we let tcp_ecn_rcv_synack() take that over on input path in case a
SYN ACK ECE was delayed. Thus a spurious SYN retransmission will not prevent
ECN being negotiated eventually in that case.

e578d9c025 net: sched: use counter to break reclassify loops
Seems all we want here is to avoid endless 'goto reclassify' loop.
tc_classify_compat even resets this counter when something other
than TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY is returned, so this skb-counter doesn't
break hypothetical loops induced by something other than perpetual
TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY return values.

skb_act_clone is now identical to skb_clone, so just use that.

Tested with following (bogus) filter:
tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: \
 protocol ip u32 match u32 0 0 police rate 10Kbit burst \
 64000 mtu 1500 action reclassify

d22a5fc0c3 bonding: Implement user key part of port_key in an AD system.
The port key has three components - user-key, speed-part, and duplex-part.
The LSBit is for the duplex-part, next 5 bits are for the speed while the
remaining 10 bits are the user defined key bits. Get these 10 bits
from the user-space (through the SysFs interface) and use it to form the
admin port-key. Allowed range for the user-key is 0 - 1023 (10 bits). If
it is not provided then use zero for the user-key-bits (default).

It can set using following example code -

   # modprobe bonding mode=4
   # usr_port_key=$(( RANDOM & 0x3FF ))
   # echo $usr_port_key > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/ad_user_port_key
   # echo +eth1 > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/slaves

7451495755 bonding: Allow userspace to set actors' macaddr in an AD-system.
In an AD system, the communication between actor and partner is the
business between these two entities. In the current setup anyone on the
same L2 can "guess" the LACPDU contents and then possibly send the
spoofed LACPDUs and trick the partner causing connectivity issues for
the AD system. This patch allows to use a random mac-address obscuring
it's identity making it harder for someone in the L2 is do the same thing.

This patch allows user-space to choose the mac-address for the AD-system.
This mac-address can not be NULL or a Multicast. If the mac-address is set
from user-space; kernel will honor it and will not overwrite it. In the
absence (value from user space); the logic will default to using the
masters' mac as the mac-address for the AD-system.

It can be set using example code below -

   # modprobe bonding mode=4
   # sys_mac_addr=$(printf '%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x:%02x' \
                    $(( (RANDOM & 0xFE) | 0x02 )) \
                    $(( RANDOM & 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM & 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM & 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM & 0xFF )) \
                    $(( RANDOM & 0xFF )))
   # echo $sys_mac_addr > /sys/class/net/bond0/bonding/ad_actor_system

62f64aed62 pktgen: introduce xmit_mode '<start_xmit|netif_receive>'
Introduce xmit_mode 'netif_receive' for pktgen which generates the
packets using familiar pktgen commands, but feeds them into
netif_receive_skb() instead of ndo_start_xmit().

Default mode is called 'start_xmit'.

It is designed to test netif_receive_skb and ingress qdisc
performace only. Make sure to understand how it works before
using it for other rx benchmarking.

Sample script 'pktgen.sh':
\#!/bin/bash
function pgset() {
  local result

  echo $1 > $PGDEV

  result=`cat $PGDEV | fgrep "Result: OK:"`
  if [ "$result" = "" ]; then
    cat $PGDEV | fgrep Result:
  fi
}

[ -z "$1" ] && echo "Usage: $0 DEV" && exit 1
ETH=$1

PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_0
pgset "rem_device_all"
pgset "add_device $ETH"

PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/$ETH
pgset "xmit_mode netif_receive"
pgset "pkt_size 60"
pgset "dst 198.18.0.1"
pgset "dst_mac 90:e2:ba:ff:ff:ff"
pgset "count 10000000"
pgset "burst 32"

PGDEV=/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl
echo "Running... ctrl^C to stop"
pgset "start"
echo "Done"
cat /proc/net/pktgen/$ETH

Usage:
$ sudo ./pktgen.sh eth2
...
Result: OK: 232376(c232372+d3) usec, 10000000 (60byte,0frags)
  43033682pps 20656Mb/sec (20656167360bps) errors: 10000000

Raw netif_receive_skb speed should be ~43 million packet
per second on 3.7Ghz x86 and 'perf report' should look like:
  37.69%  kpktgend_0   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] __netif_receive_skb_core
  25.81%  kpktgend_0   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] kfree_skb
   7.22%  kpktgend_0   [kernel.vmlinux]  [k] ip_rcv
   5.68%  kpktgend_0   [pktgen]          [k] pktgen_thread_worker

If fib_table_lookup is seen on top, it means skb was processed
by the stack. To benchmark netif_receive_skb only make sure
that 'dst_mac' of your pktgen script is different from
receiving device mac and it will be dropped by ip_rcv

82a584b7cd ipv6: Flow label state ranges
This patch divides the IPv6 flow label space into two ranges:
0-7ffff is reserved for flow label manager, 80000-fffff will be
used for creating auto flow labels (per RFC6438). This only affects how
labels are set on transmit, it does not affect receive. This range split
can be disbaled by systcl.

Background:

IPv6 flow labels have been an unmitigated disappointment thus far
in the lifetime of IPv6. Support in HW devices to use them for ECMP
is lacking, and OSes don't turn them on by default. If we had these
we could get much better hashing in IPv6 networks without resorting
to DPI, possibly eliminating some of the motivations to to define new
encaps in UDP just for getting ECMP.

Unfortunately, the initial specfications of IPv6 did not clarify
how they are to be used. There has always been a vague concept that
these can be used for ECMP, flow hashing, etc. and we do now have a
good standard how to this in RFC6438. The problem is that flow labels
can be either stateful or stateless (as in RFC6438), and we are
presented with the possibility that a stateless label may collide
with a stateful one.  Attempts to split the flow label space were
rejected in IETF. When we added support in Linux for RFC6438, we
could not turn on flow labels by default due to this conflict.

This patch splits the flow label space and should give us
a path to enabling auto flow labels by default for all IPv6 packets.
This is an API change so we need to consider compatibility with
existing deployment. The stateful range is chosen to be the lower
values in hopes that most uses would have chosen small numbers.

Once we resolve the stateless/stateful issue, we can proceed to
look at enabling RFC6438 flow labels by default (starting with
scaled testing).

a31196b07f net: rfs: fix crash in get_rps_cpus()
Commit 567e4b7973 ("net: rfs: add hash collision detection") had one
mistake :

RPS_NO_CPU is no longer the marker for invalid cpu in set_rps_cpu()
and get_rps_cpu(), as @next_cpu was the result of an AND with
rps_cpu_mask

This bug showed up on a host with 72 cpus :
next_cpu was 0x7f, and the code was trying to access percpu data of an
non existent cpu.

In a follow up patch, we might get rid of compares against nr_cpu_ids,
if we init the tables with 0. This is silly to test for a very unlikely
condition that exists only shortly after table initialization, as
we got rid of rps_reset_sock_flow() and similar functions that were
writing this RPS_NO_CPU magic value at flow dismantle : When table is
old enough, it never contains this value anymore.

37bde79979 mpls: Per-device enabling of packet input
An MPLS network is a single trust domain where the edges must be in
control of what labels make their way into the core. The simplest way
of ensuring this is for the edge device to always impose the labels,
and not allow forward labeled traffic from untrusted neighbours. This
is achieved by allowing a per-device configuration of whether MPLS
traffic input from that interface should be processed or not.

To be secure by default, the default state is changed to MPLS being
disabled on all interfaces unless explicitly enabled and no global
option is provided to change the default. Whilst this differs from
other protocols (e.g. IPv6), network operators are used to explicitly
enabling MPLS forwarding on interfaces, and with the number of links
to the MPLS core typically fairly low this doesn't present too much of
a burden on operators.

a5581ef4c2 can: introduce new raw socket option to join the given CAN filters
The CAN_RAW socket can set multiple CAN identifier specific filters that lead
to multiple filters in the af_can.c filter processing. These filters are
indenpendent from each other which leads to logical OR'ed filters when applied.

This socket option joines the given CAN filters in the way that only CAN frames
are passed to user space that matched *all* given CAN filters. The semantic for
the applied filters is therefore changed to a logical AND.

This is useful especially when the filterset is a combination of filters where
the CAN_INV_FILTER flag is set in order to notch single CAN IDs or CAN ID
ranges from the incoming traffic.

As the raw_rcv() function is executed from NET_RX softirq the introduced
variables are implemented as per-CPU variables to avoid extensive locking at
CAN frame reception time.

This commit introduces a new BPF extension. It makes possible to load
the value of vlan_proto (vlan TPID) to register A. Support for classic
BPF and eBPF is being added, analogous to skb->protocol.

7720c01f3f mpls: Add a sysctl to control the size of the mpls label table
This sysctl gives two benefits.  By defaulting the table size to 0
mpls even when compiled in and enabled defaults to not forwarding
any packets.  This prevents unpleasant surprises for users.

The other benefit is that as mpls labels are allocated locally a dense
table a small dense label table may be used which saves memory and
is extremely simple and efficient to implement.

This sysctl allows userspace to choose the restrictions on the label
table size userspace applications need to cope with.

d752c36457 ipvs: allow rescheduling of new connections when port reuse is detected
Currently, when TCP/SCTP port reusing happens, IPVS will find the old
entry and use it for the new one, behaving like a forced persistence.
But if you consider a cluster with a heavy load of small connections,
such reuse will happen often and may lead to a not optimal load
balancing and might prevent a new node from getting a fair load.

This patch introduces a new sysctl, conn_reuse_mode, that allows
controlling how to proceed when port reuse is detected. The default
value will allow rescheduling of new connections only if the old entry
was in TIME_WAIT state for TCP or CLOSED for SCTP.
