5f81bd2e5d ipv6: export a stub for IPv6 symbols used by vxlan
In case IPv6 is compiled as a module, introduce a stub
for ipv6_sock_mc_join and ipv6_sock_mc_drop etc.. It will be used
by vxlan module. Suggested by Ben.

This is an ugly but easy solution for now.

6da7c8fcbc qdisc: allow setting default queuing discipline
By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default
for all devices. But we have better choices now.

This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl.
This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices
without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow
an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default
qdisc.

This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly
use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl
is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast

Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

ede23fa816 drivers:net: Convert dma_alloc_coherent(...__GFP_ZERO) to dma_zalloc_coherent
__GFP_ZERO is an uncommon flag and perhaps is better
not used.  static inline dma_zalloc_coherent exists
so convert the uses of dma_alloc_coherent with __GFP_ZERO
to the more common kernel style with zalloc.

Remove memset from the static inline dma_zalloc_coherent
and add just one use of __GFP_ZERO instead.

Trivially reduces the size of the existing uses of
dma_zalloc_coherent.

Realign arguments as appropriate.

afe4fd0624 pkt_sched: fq: Fair Queue packet scheduler
- Uses perfect flow match (not stochastic hash like SFQ/FQ_codel)
- Uses the new_flow/old_flow separation from FQ_codel
- New flows get an initial credit allowing IW10 without added delay.
- Special FIFO queue for high prio packets (no need for PRIO + FQ)
- Uses a hash table of RB trees to locate the flows at enqueue() time
- Smart on demand gc (at enqueue() time, RB tree lookup evicts old
  unused flows)
- Dynamic memory allocations.
- Designed to allow millions of concurrent flows per Qdisc.
- Small memory footprint : ~8K per Qdisc, and 104 bytes per flow.
- Single high resolution timer for throttled flows (if any).
- One RB tree to link throttled flows.
- Ability to have a max rate per flow. We might add a socket option
  to add per socket limitation.

Attempts have been made to add TCP pacing in TCP stack, but this
seems to add complex code to an already complex stack.

TCP pacing is welcomed for flows having idle times, as the cwnd
permits TCP stack to queue a possibly large number of packets.

This removes the 'slow start after idle' choice, hitting badly
large BDP flows, and applications delivering chunks of data
as video streams.

Nicely spaced packets :
Here interface is 10Gbit, but flow bottleneck is ~20Mbit

cwin is big, yet FQ avoids the typical bursts generated by TCP
(as in netperf TCP_RR -- -r 100000,100000)

TCP timestamps show that most packets from B were queued in the same ms
timeframe (TSval 1159799{3,4}), but FQ managed to send them right
in time to avoid a big burst.

In slow start or steady state, very few packets are throttled [1]

FQ gets a bunch of tunables as :

  limit : max number of packets on whole Qdisc (default 10000)

  flow_limit : max number of packets per flow (default 100)

  quantum : the credit per RR round (default is 2 MTU)

  initial_quantum : initial credit for new flows (default is 10 MTU)

  maxrate : max per flow rate (default : unlimited)

  buckets : number of RB trees (default : 1024) in hash table.
               (consumes 8 bytes per bucket)

  [no]pacing : disable/enable pacing (default is enable)

All of them can be changed on a live qdisc.

$ tc qd add dev eth0 root fq help

cached srtt in tcp metrics. We'll provide a fix for this issue.

5d261913ca net: add lower_dev_list to net_device and make a full mesh
This patch adds lower_dev_list list_head to net_device, which is the same
as upper_dev_list, only for lower devices, and begins to use it in the same
way as the upper list.

It also changes the way the whole adjacent device lists work - now they
contain *all* of upper/lower devices, not only the first level. The first
level devices are distinguished by the bool neighbour field in
netdev_adjacent, also added by this patch.

There are cases when a device can be added several times to the adjacent
list, the simplest would be:

     /---- eth0.10 ---\
eth0-		       --- bond0
     \---- eth0.20 ---/

where both bond0 and eth0 'see' each other in the adjacent lists two times.
To avoid duplication of netdev_adjacent structures ref_nr is being kept as
the number of times the device was added to the list.

The 'full view' is achieved by adding, on link creation, all of the
upper_dev's upper_dev_list devices as upper devices to all of the
lower_dev's lower_dev_list devices (and to the lower_dev itself), and vice
versa. On unlink they are removed using the same logic.

I've tested it with thousands vlans/bonds/bridges, everything works ok and
no observable lags even on a huge number of interfaces.

Memory footprint for 128 devices interconnected with each other via both
upper and lower (which is impossible, but for the comparison) lists would be:

128*128*2*sizeof(netdev_adjacent) = 1.5MB

but in the real world we usualy have at most several devices with slaves
and a lot of vlans, so the footprint will be much lower.

95bd09eb27 tcp: TSO packets automatic sizing
After hearing many people over past years complaining against TSO being
bursty or even buggy, we are proud to present automatic sizing of TSO
packets.

One part of the problem is that tcp_tso_should_defer() uses an heuristic
relying on upcoming ACKS instead of a timer, but more generally, having
big TSO packets makes little sense for low rates, as it tends to create
micro bursts on the network, and general consensus is to reduce the
buffering amount.

This patch introduces a per socket sk_pacing_rate, that approximates
the current sending rate, and allows us to size the TSO packets so
that we try to send one packet every ms.

This field could be set by other transports.

Patch has no impact for high speed flows, where having large TSO packets
makes sense to reach line rate.

For other flows, this helps better packet scheduling and ACK clocking.

This patch increases performance of TCP flows in lossy environments.

A new sysctl (tcp_min_tso_segs) is added, to specify the
minimal size of a TSO packet (default being 2).

A follow-up patch will provide a new packet scheduler (FQ), using
sk_pacing_rate as an input to perform optional per flow pacing.

This explains why we chose to set sk_pacing_rate to twice the current
rate, allowing 'slow start' ramp up.

sk_pacing_rate = 2 * cwnd * mss / srtt

v2: Neal Cardwell reported a suspect deferring of last two segments on
initial write of 10 MSS, I had to change tcp_tso_should_defer() to take
into account tp->xmit_size_goal_segs

5b2941b18d Merge branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jesse/openvswitch
Jesse Gross says:

====================
A number of significant new features and optimizations for net-next/3.12.
Highlights are:
 * "Megaflows", an optimization that allows userspace to specify which
   flow fields were used to compute the results of the flow lookup.
   This allows for a major reduction in flow setups (the major
   performance bottleneck in Open vSwitch) without reducing flexibility.
 * Converting netlink dump operations to use RCU, allowing for
   additional parallelism in userspace.
 * Matching and modifying SCTP protocol fields.

48b1de4c11 netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/target
Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy
core with common functions and an address family specific target.

The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with
a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks
whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie.

It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if
successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size
announced by the server.

Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be
statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server
are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to
the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of
the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in
the direction server->client.

a175a72330 openvswitch: Add SCTP support
This patch adds support for rewriting SCTP src,dst ports similar to the
functionality already available for TCP/UDP.

Rewriting SCTP ports is expensive due to double-recalculation of the
SCTP checksums; this is performed to ensure that packets traversing OVS
with invalid checksums will continue to the destination with any
checksum corruption intact.

03f0d916aa openvswitch: Mega flow implementation
Add wildcarded flow support in kernel datapath.

Wildcarded flow can improve OVS flow set up performance by avoid sending
matching new flows to the user space program. The exact performance boost
will largely dependent on wildcarded flow hit rate.

In case all new flows hits wildcard flows, the flow set up rate is
within 5% of that of linux bridge module.

Pravin has made significant contributions to this patch. Including API
clean ups and bug fixes.

4a5a8aa6c9 ipv4: expose IPV4_DEVCONF
IP sends device configuration (see inet_fill_link_af) as an array

5ea80f76a5 Revert "x86 get_unmapped_area(): use proper mmap base for bottom-up direction"
This reverts commit df54d6fa54.

The commit isn't necessarily wrong, but because it recalculates the
random mmap_base every time, it seems to confuse user memory allocators
that expect contiguous mmap allocations even when the mmap address isn't
specified.

In particular, the MATLAB Java runtime seems to be unhappy. See

  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60774

So we'll want to apply the random offset only once, and Radu has a patch
for that.  Revert this older commit in order to apply the other one.

849c9b6f93 tun: Allow to skip filter on attach
There's a small problem with sk-filters on tun devices. Consider
an application doing this sequence of steps:

fd = open("/dev/net/tun");
ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" });
ioctl(fd, TUNATTACHFILTER, &my_filter);
ioctl(fd, TUNSETPERSIST, 1);
close(fd);

At that point the tun0 will remain in the system and will keep in
mind that there should be a socket filter at address '&my_filter'.

If after that we do

fd = open("/dev/net/tun");
ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, { .ifr_name = "tun0" });

we most likely receive the -EFAULT error, since tun_attach() would
try to connect the filter back. But (!) if we provide a filter at
address &my_filter, then tun0 will be created and the "new" filter
would be attached, but application may not know about that.

This may create certain problems to anyone using tun-s, but it's
critical problem for c/r -- if we meet a persistent tun device
with a filter in mind, we will not be able to attach to it to dump
its state (flags, owner, address, vnethdr size, etc.).

The proposal is to allow to attach to tun device (with TUNSETIFF)
w/o attaching the filter to the tun-file's socket. After this
attach app may e.g clean the device by dropping the filter, it
doesn't want to have one, or (in case of c/r) get information
about the device with tun ioctls.

fb7589a162 tun: Add ability to create tun device with given index
Tun devices cannot be created with ifidex user wants, but it's
required by checkpoint-restore project.

Long time ago such ability was implemented for rtnl_ops-based
interface for creating links (9c7dafbf net: Allow to create links
with given ifindex), but the only API for creating and managing
tuntap devices is ioctl-based and is evolving with adding new ones
(cde8b15f tuntap: add ioctl to attach or detach a file form tuntap
device).

Following that trend, here's how a new ioctl that sets the ifindex
for device, that _will_ be created by TUNSETIFF ioctl looks like.
So those who want a tuntap device with the ifindex N, should open
the tun device, call ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFINDEX, &N), then call TUNSETIFF.
If the index N is busy, then the register_netdev will find this out
and the ioctl would be failed with -EBUSY.

If setifindex is not called, then it will be generated as before.

 "Since v3.7.2 on two independent machines a very specific Git

  failures.  This only occurs on a very specific repository and can be

and bisected the failure to the backport of commit 53a59fc67f ("mm:

That commit itself is not actually buggy, but what it does is to make it
much more likely to hit the partial TLB invalidation case, since it
introduces a new case in tlb_next_batch() that previously only ever
happened when running out of memory.

The real bug is that the TLB gather virtual memory range setup is subtly
buggered.  It was introduced in commit 597e1c3580 ("mm/mmu_gather:

was already fixed at least once in commit e6c495a96c ("mm: fix the TLB
range flushed when __tlb_remove_page() runs out of slots"), but that fix
was not complete.

The problem with the TLB gather virtual address range is that it isn't
set up by the initial tlb_gather_mmu() initialization (which didn't get
the TLB range information), but it is set up ad-hoc later by the
functions that actually flush the TLB.  And so any such case that forgot
to update the TLB range entries would potentially miss TLB invalidates.

Rather than try to figure out exactly which particular ad-hoc range
setup was missing (I personally suspect it's the hugetlb case in
zap_huge_pmd(), which didn't have the same logic as zap_pte_range()
did), this patch just gets rid of the problem at the source: make the
TLB range information available to tlb_gather_mmu(), and initialize it
when initializing all the other tlb gather fields.

This makes the patch larger, but conceptually much simpler.  And the end
result is much more understandable; even if you want to play games with
partial ranges when invalidating the TLB contents in chunks, now the
range information is always there, and anybody who doesn't want to
bother with it won't introduce subtle bugs.

Ben verified that this fixes his problem.

0a324f3189 net/mlx5_core: Support MANAGE_PAGES and QUERY_PAGES firmware command changes
In the previous QUERY_PAGES command version we used one command to get the
required amount of boot, init and post init pages.  The new version uses the
op_mod field to specify whether the query is for the required amount of boot,
init or post init pages. In addition the output field size for the required
amount of pages increased from 16 to 32 bits.

In MANAGE_PAGES command the input_num_entries and output_num_entries fields
sizes changed from 16 to 32 bits and the PAS tables offset changed to 0x10.

In the pages request event the num_pages field also changed to 32 bits.

In the HCA-capabilities-layout the size and location of max_qp_mcg field has
been changed to support 24 bits.

This patch isn't compatible with firmware versions < 5; however, it  turns out that the
first GA firmware we will publish will not support previous versions so this should be OK.

8a8e3d84b1 net_sched: restore "linklayer atm" handling
commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.

 tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm

The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel.  No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.

The commit 56b765b79 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.

To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table.  It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.

Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect.  Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

0bd8762824 ip6tnl: add x-netns support
This patch allows to switch the netns when packet is encapsulated or
decapsulated. In other word, the encapsulated packet is received in a netns,
where the lookup is done to find the tunnel. Once the tunnel is found, the
packet is decapsulated and injecting into the corresponding interface which
stands to another netns.

When one of the two netns is removed, the tunnel is destroyed.
