       "A small set of patches for audit this time; just three in total and
        one is a spelling fix.
      
        The two patches with actual content are designed to help prevent new
        instances of auditd from displacing an existing, functioning auditd
        and to generate a log of the attempt.  Not to worry, dead/stuck auditd
        instances can still be replaced by a new instance without problem.

         3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov.
      
         4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing
         of incoming TCP/UDP connections.  The muxing can be done using a
         BPF program which hashes the incoming packet.  From Craig Gallek.
      
         5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based
            interface.  BPF programs can be used to determine the message
            boundaries.  From Tom Herbert.
      
         6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca.
      
         7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface
            with lots of configured addresses.  We were doing things like
            traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and
            flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as
            well.
      
         8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer.
      
         9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for

        10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis,
            from Kan Liang.
      
        11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported.
            From David Decotigny.
      
        12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types
            (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device
            level attributes as a whole.  From Jiri Pirko.
      
        13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai.
      
        14) Add "Local Checksum Offload".  Basically, for a tunneled packet
            the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the
            checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload

      Pull cgroup updates from Tejun Heo:
       "cgroup changes for v4.6-rc1.  No userland visible behavior changes in
        this pull request.  I'll send out a separate pull request for the
        addition of cgroup namespace support.
      
         - The biggest change is the revamping of cgroup core task migration
           and controller handling logic.  There are quite a few places where
           controllers and tasks are manipulated.  Previously, many of those
           places implemented custom operations for each specific use case
           assuming specific starting conditions.  While this worked, it makes
           the code fragile and difficult to follow.
      
           The bulk of this pull request restructures these operations so that
           most related operations are performed through common helpers which
           implement recursive (subtrees are always processed consistently)
           and idempotent (they make cgroup hierarchy converge to the target
           state rather than performing operations assuming specific starting
           conditions).  This makes the code a lot easier to understand,
           verify and extend.
      
         - Implicit controller support is added.  This is primarily for using
           perf_event on the v2 hierarchy so that perf can match cgroup v2
           path without requiring the user to do anything special.  The kernel
           portion of perf_event changes is acked but userland changes are
           still pending review.
      
         - cgroup_no_v1= boot parameter added to ease testing cgroup v2 in
           certain environments.
      
         - There is a regression introduced during v4.4 devel cycle where
           attempts to migrate zombie tasks can mess up internal object
           management.  This was fixed earlier this week and included in this
           pull request w/ stable cc'd.
      
         - Misc non-critical fixes and improvements"

      bonding: fix bond_get_stats() · fe30937b
      Eric Dumazet authored
      bond_get_stats() can be called from rtnetlink (with RTNL held)
      or from /proc/net/dev seq handler (with RCU held)
      
      The logic added in commit 5f0c5f73 ("bonding: make global bonding
      stats more reliable") kind of assumed only one cpu could run there.
      
      If multiple threads are reading /proc/net/dev, stats can be really
      messed up after a while.
      
      A second problem is that some fields are 32bit, so we need to properly
      handle the wrap around problem.
      
      Given that RTNL is not always held, we need to use
      bond_for_each_slave_rcu().
      
      Fixes: 5f0c5f73 ("bonding: make global bonding stats more reliable")

      Eric Dumazet authored
      When un-mapping skb->data in __bcmgenet_tx_reclaim(),
      we must use the length that was used in original dma_map_single(),
      instead of skb->len that might be bigger (includes the frags)
      
      We simply can store skb_len into tx_cb_ptr->dma_len and use it

      net/mlx4_core: Fix backward compatibility on VFs · 76e39ccf
      Eli Cohen authored
      Commit 85743f1e ("net/mlx4_core: Set UAR page size to 4KB regardless
      of system page size") introduced dependency where old VF drivers without
      this fix fail to load if the PF driver runs with this commit.
      
      To resolve this add a module parameter which disables that functionality
      by default.  If both the PF and VFs are running with a driver with that
      commit the administrator may set the module param to true.
      
      The module parameter is called enable_4k_uar.

      RDS: TCP: Add sysctl tunables for sndbuf/rcvbuf on rds-tcp socket · c6a58ffe
      Sowmini Varadhan authored
      Add per-net sysctl tunables to set the size of sndbuf and
      rcvbuf on the kernel tcp socket.
      
      The tunables are added at /proc/sys/net/rds/tcp/rds_tcp_sndbuf
      and /proc/sys/net/rds/tcp/rds_tcp_rcvbuf.
      
      These values must be set before accept() or connect(),
      and there may be an arbitrary number of existing rds-tcp
      sockets when the tunable is modified. To make sure that all
      connections in the netns pick up the same value for the tunable,
      we reset existing rds-tcp connections in the netns, so that
      they can reconnect with the new parameters.

      bpf, dst: add and use dst_tclassid helper · 808c1b69
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      We can just add a small helper dst_tclassid() for retrieving the
      dst->tclassid value. It makes the code a bit better in that we can
      get rid of the ifdef from filter.c by moving this into the header.

      Daniel Borkmann authored
      Currently, the tc_classid from eBPF skb context is write-only, but there's
      no good reason for tc programs to limit it to write-only. For example,
      it can be used to transfer its state via tail calls where the resulting
      tc_classid gets filled gradually.

      net: mvneta: bm: clarify dependencies · 019ded3a
      Arnd Bergmann authored
      MVNETA_BM has a dependency on MVNETA, so we can only select the former
      if the latter is enabled. However, the code dependency is the reverse:
      The mvneta module can call into the mvneta_bm module, so mvneta cannot
      be a built-in if mvneta_bm is a module, or we get a link error:
      
      drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mvneta_remove':
      drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c:4211: undefined reference to `mvneta_bm_pool_destroy'

      drivers/net/ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c:1034: undefined reference to `mvneta_bm_bufs_free'
      
      This avoids the problem by further clarifying the dependency so that
      MVNETA_BM is a silent Kconfig option that gets turned on by the
      new MVNETA_BM_ENABLE option. This way both the core HWBM module and
      the MVNETA_BM code are always built-in when needed.

      cls_bpf: reset class and reuse major in da · 3a461da1
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      There are two issues with the current code. First one is that we need
      to set res->class to 0 in case we use non-default classid matching.
      
      This is important for the case where cls_bpf was initially set up with
      an optional binding to a default class with tcf_bind_filter(), where
      the underlying qdisc implements bind_tcf() that fills res->class and
      tests for it later on when doing the classification. Convention for
      these cases is that after tc_classify() was called, such qdiscs (atm,
      drr, qfq, cbq, hfsc, htb) first test class, and if 0, then they lookup
      based on classid.
      
      Second, there's a bug with da mode, where res->classid is only assigned
      a 16 bit minor, but it needs to expand to the full 32 bit major/minor
      combination instead, therefore we need to expand with the bound major.
      This is fine as classes belonging to a classful qdisc must share the
      same major.

      Merge branch 'ldmvsw' · 70063e94
      David S. Miller authored
      Aaron Young says:
      
      ====================
      ldmvsw: Add ldmvsw driver
      
      This series adds a new Logical Domains vSwitch (ldmvsw) driver.
      
      The ldmvsw driver code will live in the drivers/net/ethernet/sun/
      directory and will operate on Oracle systems running SPARC Linux in a
      Logical Domains environment (typically in the control domain).
      
      The ldmvsw driver is very similar in function to the existing sunvnet
      driver. Ldmvsw creates a network interface for each "vsw-port" node
      found in the Machine Description (MD) of a service domain. These
      nodes correspond to ports on a vswitch created by the logical domains
      manager. The created network interface(s) can be used by bridge/vswitch
      software (such as the Linux bridge or Open vSwitch) to provide
      guest domain(s) with network interconnectivity or connectivity
      to a physical network.
      
      Here is a example diagram of ldmvsw driver usage in a logical
      domain environment to provide a guest domain with network connectivity
      to a physical NIC on the service domain:
      
         +----------------+             +-----------------
         | Service Domain |             |  Guest domain  |
         |                |             |                |
         |  LinuxBridge   |             |                |
         |    |    |      |             |                |
         |   NIC Ldmvsw   |             |    Sunvnet     |
         +----------------+             +----------------+
              |    |           LDC              |
             LAN   ------------------------------
      
      As stated, the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers are _very_ similar in function.
      They both create network interface(s) to receive/transmit network
      traffic across LDC network channel(s). Since the driver is so similar
      in function to sunvnet, the approach will be as follows to integrate
      the driver and take advantage of common code:
      
      Patch #1: Split sunvnet.c driver into sunvnet.c and sunvnet_common.c
      Patch #2: Modify the sunvnet_common code and data structures to be compatible
                with both the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers.
      Patch #3: Add the new ldmvsw.c driver code
      Patch #4: Checkpatch cleanup of the sunvnet/sunvnet_common code.
      
      NOTE - Patch#1 renames a file (sunvnet.h -> sunvnet_common.h). When generating
      the patches (using git format-patch), I had to use the --no-renames option
      otherwise patch#1 would NOT apply using 'patch -p1' - which as I
      understand is a requirement for patch acceptance. I wasn't sure if this
      is proper thing to do.  Please advise if not. Thanks.
      
      v2 changes:
        * change all EXPORT_SYMBOL declarations to EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL
        * remove inline attribute for external function port_is_up_common()
        * Give all exported/global funcs in sunvnet_common.c a 'sunvnet_' prefix
          to avoid kernel global namespace pollution/collisions
        * ldmvsw.c: Order local variable declarations from longest to shortest line
        * ldmvsw.c: register the netdevice after all supporting state is ready/setup.
                    NOTE: The consensus at Oracle is that the following functions
                          must be done AFTER register_netdev() - this is the same
                          ordering currently used in the sunvnet driver:
                          1. sunvnet_port_add_txq_common() - needs registered netdev
                          2. napi_enable() - requires registered netdev
                          3. vio_port_up() - as soon as this function is called
                                             LDC handshake messages will come in
                                             which must be handled by the napi code.

      ldmvsw: Add ldmvsw.c driver code · 5d01fa0c
      Aaron Young authored
        Add ldmvsw.c driver
      
        Details:
      
        The ldmvsw driver very closely follows the sunvnet.c code and makes
        use of the sunvnet_common.c code for core functionality.
      
        A significant difference between sunvnet and ldmvsw driver is
        sunvnet creates a network interface for each vnet-port *parent*
        node in the MD while the ldmvsw driver creates a network interface
        for every vsw-port node in the Machine Description (MD).
        Therefore the netdev_priv() for sunvnet is a vnet structure while
        the netdev_priv() for ldmvsw is a vnet_port structure.
      
        Vnet_port structures allocated by ldmvsw have the vsw bit set.
        When finding the net_device associated with a port, the common code keys
        off this bit to use either the net_device found in the vnet_port or the
        net_device in the vnet structure (see the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() macro in
        sunvnet_common.h). This scheme allows the common code to work with
        both drivers with minimal changes.
      
        Similar to Xen, network interfaces created by the ldmvsw driver will always
        have a HW Addr (i.e. mac address) of FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and each will be
        assigned the devname "vif<cfg_handle>.<port_id>" - where <cfg_handle> and
        <port_id> are a unique handle/port pair assigned to the associated
        vsw-port node in the MD.

      ldmvsw: Make sunvnet_common compatible with ldmvsw · 67d0719f
      Aaron Young authored
        Modify sunvnet common code and data structures to be compatible
        with both sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers.
      
        Details:
      
        Sunvnet operates on "vnet-port" nodes which appear in the Machine
        Description (MD) in a guest domain. Ldmvsw operates on "vsw-port"
        nodes which appear in the MD of a service domain.
      
        A difference between the sunvnet driver and the ldmvsw driver is
        the sunvnet driver creates a network interface (i.e. a struct net_device)
        for every vnet-port *parent* "network" node. Several vnet-ports may appear
        under this common parent network node - each corresponding to a common parent
        network interface.  Conversely, since bridge/vswitch software will need
        to interface with every vsw-port in a system, the ldmvsw driver creates
        a network interface (i.e. a struct net_device) for every vsw-port - not
        every parent node as with sunvnet.  This difference required some special
        handling in the common code as explained below.
      
        There are 2 key data structures used by the sunvnet and ldmvsw drivers
        (which are now found in sunvnet_common.h):
      
        1. struct vnet_port
           This structure represents a vnet-port node in sunvnet and a vsw-port
           in the ldmvsw driver.
      
        2. struct vnet
           This structure represents a parent "network" node in sunvnet and a parent
           "virtual-network-switch" node in ldmvsw.
      
        Since the sunvnet driver allocates a net_device for every parent "network"
        node, a net_device member appears in the struct vnet. Since the ldmvsw
        driver allocates a net_device for every port, a net_device member was
        added to the vnet_port. The common code distinguishes which structure
        net_device member to use by checking a 'vsw' bit that was added to the
        vnet_port structure. See the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() marco in
        sunvnet_common.h.
      
        The netdev_priv() in sunvnet is allocated as a vnet. The netdev_priv()
        in ldmvsw is a vnet_port. Therefore, any place in the common code
        where a netdev_priv() call was made, a wrapper function was implemented
        in each driver to first get the vnet and/or vnet_port (in a driver
        specific way) and pass them as newly added parameters to the common
        functions (see wrapper funcs: vnet_set_rx_mode() and vnet_poll_controller()).
        Since these wrapper functions call __tx_port_find(), __tx_port_find() was
        moved from the common code back into sunvnet.c. Note - ldmvsw.c does not
        require this function.
      
        These changes also required that port_is_up() be made
        into a common function and thus it was given a _common suffix and
        exported like the other common functions.
      
        A wrapper function was also added for vnet_start_xmit_common() to pass a
        driver-specific function arg to return the port associated with a given
        struct sk_buff and struct net_device. This was required because
        vnet_start_xmit_common() grabs a lock prior to getting the associated
        port. Using a function pointer arg allowed the code to work unchanged
        without risking changes to the non-trivial locking logic in
        vnet_start_xmit_common().
