sw_flow_key alignment was declared as " __aligned(__alignof__(long))". However, this breaks on the m68k architecture where long is 32 bit in size but 16 bit aligned by default. This aligns to the size of a long to ensure that we can always do comparsions in full long-sized chunks. It also adds an additional build check to catch any reduction in alignment.

Conflicts: drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_platform.c net/bridge/br_multicast.c net/ipv6/sit.c The conflicts were minor: 1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature. 2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters. 3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property, and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made. The latter of which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This commit fixes a long-standing bug that has been reported by many users: on some Armada 370 platforms, only the network interface that has been used in U-Boot to tftp the kernel works properly in Linux. The other network interfaces can see a 'link up', but are unable to transmit data. The reports were generally made on the Armada 370-based Mirabox, but have also been given on the Armada 370-RD board. The network MAC in the Armada 370/XP (supported by the mvneta driver in Linux) has a functionality that allows it to continuously poll the PHY and directly update the MAC configuration accordingly (speed, duplex, etc.). The very first versions of the driver submitted for review were using this hardware mechanism, but due to this, the driver was not integrated with the kernel phylib. Following reviews, the driver was changed to use the phylib, and therefore a software based polling. In software based polling, Linux regularly talks to the PHY over the MDIO bus, and sees if the link status has changed. If it's the case then the adjust_link() callback of the driver is called to update the MAC configuration accordingly. However, it turns out that the adjust_link() callback was not configuring the hardware in a completely correct way: while it was setting the speed and duplex bits correctly, it wasn't telling the hardware to actually take into account those bits rather than what the hardware-based PHY polling mechanism has concluded. So, in fact the adjust_link() callback was basically a no-op. However, the network happened to be working because on the network interfaces used by U-Boot for tftp on Armada 370 platforms because the hardware PHY polling was enabled by the bootloader, and left enabled by Linux. However, the second network interface not used for tftp (or both network interfaces if the kernel is loaded from USB, NAND or SD card) didn't had the hardware PHY polling enabled. This patch fixes this situation by: (1) Making sure that the hardware PHY polling is disabled by clearing the MVNETA_PHY_POLLING_ENABLE bit in the MVNETA_UNIT_CONTROL register in the driver ->probe() function. (2) Making sure that the duplex and speed selections made by the adjust_link() callback are taken into account by clearing the MVNETA_GMAC_AN_SPEED_EN and MVNETA_GMAC_AN_DUPLEX_EN bits in the MVNETA_GMAC_AUTONEG_CONFIG register. This patch has been tested on Armada 370 Mirabox, and now both network interfaces are usable after boot.

copying large files to a NFS mounted host was taking absurdly large time. Turns out that TX BD reclaim had a sublte bug. Loop starts off from @txbd_dirty cursor and stops when it hits a BD still in use by controller. However when it stops it needs to keep the cursor at that very BD to resume scanning in next iteration. However it was erroneously incrementing the cursor, causing the next scan(s) to fail too, unless the BD chain was completely drained out.

Since commit 82dc3c63 ("net: introduce NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT") netif_napi_add() produces an error message if a NAPI poll weight greater than 64 is requested. qlcnic requests the weight as large as 256 for some of its rings, and smaller values for other rings. For instance in qlcnic_82xx_napi_add() I think the intention was to give the tx+rx ring a bigger weight than to rx-only rings, but it's actually doing the opposite. So I'm assuming the weights do not really matter much. Just use the standard NAPI weights for all rings.

RFC 4861 says that the IP source address of the Redirect is the same as the current first-hop router for the specified ICMP Destination Address, so the gateway should be taken into consideration when we find the route for redirect. There was once a check in commit a6279458 ("NDISC: Search over all possible rules on receipt of redirect.") and the check went away in commit b94f1c09 ("ipv6: Use icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, instead of rt6_redirect()"). The bug is only "exploitable" on layer-2 because the source address of the redirect is checked to be a valid link-local address but it makes spoofing a lot easier in the same L2 domain nonetheless.

This patch adds two more ndo ops: ndo_add_rx_vxlan_port() and ndo_del_rx_vxlan_port(). Drivers can get notifications through the above functions about changes of the UDP listening port of VXLAN. Also, when physical ports come up, now they can call vxlan_get_rx_port() in order to obtain the port number(s) of the existing VXLAN interface in case they already up before them. This information about the listening UDP port would be used for VXLAN related offloads.

While implementing NAPI for the driver, I overlooked the race conditions where interrupt handler might have called napi_schedule_prep() before napi_enable() was called or after napi_disable() was called. If RX interrupt happens, this would cause the endless interrupts and messages like: sh-eth eth0: ignoring interrupt, status 0x00040000, mask 0x01ff009f. The interrupt wouldn't even be masked by the kernel eventually since the handler would return IRQ_HANDLED all the time. As a fix, move napi_enable() call before request_irq() call and napi_disable() call after free_irq() call. Signed-off-by: Sergei Shtylyov <sergei.shtylyov@cogentembedded.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

RFC3810, 10. Security Considerations says under subsection 10.1. Query Message: A forged Version 1 Query message will put MLDv2 listeners on that link in MLDv1 Host Compatibility Mode. This scenario can be avoided by providing MLDv2 hosts with a configuration option to ignore Version 1 messages completely. Hence, implement a MLDv2-only mode that will ignore MLDv1 traffic: echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/ethX/force_mld_version or echo 2 > /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/force_mld_version Note that <all> device has a higher precedence as it was previously also the case in the macro MLD_V1_SEEN() that would "short-circuit" if condition on <all> case.

i) RFC3810, 9.2. Query Interval [QI] says: The Query Interval variable denotes the interval between General Queries sent by the Querier. Default value: 125 seconds. [...] ii) RFC3810, 9.3. Query Response Interval [QRI] says: The Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted into the periodic General Queries. Default value: 10000 (10 seconds) [...] The number of seconds represented by the [Query Response Interval] must be less than the [Query Interval]. iii) RFC3810, 9.12. Older Version Querier Present Timeout [OVQPT] says: The Older Version Querier Present Timeout is the time-out for transitioning a host back to MLDv2 Host Compatibility Mode. When an MLDv1 query is received, MLDv2 hosts set their Older Version Querier Present Timer to [Older Version Querier Present Timeout]. This value MUST be ([Robustness Variable] times (the [Query Interval] in the last Query received)) plus ([Query Response Interval]). Hence, on *default* the timeout results in: [RV] = 2, [QI] = 125sec, [QRI] = 10sec [OVQPT] = [RV] * [QI] + [QRI] = 260sec Having that said, we currently calculate [OVQPT] (here given as 'switchback' variable) as ... switchback = (idev->mc_qrv + 1) * max_delay RFC3810, 9.12. says "the [Query Interval] in the last Query received". In section "9.14. Configuring timers", it is said: This section is meant to provide advice to network administrators on how to tune these settings to their network. Ambitious router implementations might tune these settings dynamically based upon changing characteristics of the network. [...] iv) RFC38010, 9.14.2. Query Interval: The overall level of periodic MLD traffic is inversely proportional to the Query Interval. A longer Query Interval results in a lower overall level of MLD traffic. The value of the Query Interval MUST be equal to or greater than the Maximum Response Delay used to calculate the Maximum Response Code inserted in General Query messages. I assume that was why switchback is calculated as is (3 * max_delay), although this setting seems to be meant for routers only to configure their [QI] interval for non-default intervals. So usage here like this is clearly wrong. Concluding, the current behaviour in IPv6's multicast code is not conform to the RFC as switch back is calculated wrongly. That is, it has a too small value, so MLDv2 hosts switch back again to MLDv2 way too early, i.e. ~30secs instead of ~260secs on default. Hence, introduce necessary helper functions and fix this up properly as it should be. Introduced in 06da9228 ("[IPV6]: Add MLDv2 support."). Credits to Hannes Frederic Sowa who also had a hand in this as well. Also thanks to Hangbin Liu who did initial testing.

In tcp_v6_do_rcv() code, when processing pkt options, we soley work on our skb clone opt_skb that we've created earlier before entering tcp_rcv_established() on our way. However, only in condition ... if (np->rxopt.bits.rxtclass) np->rcv_tclass = ipv6_get_dsfield(ipv6_hdr(skb)); ... we work on skb itself. As we extract every other information out of opt_skb in ipv6_pktoptions path, this seems wrong, since skb can already be released by tcp_rcv_established() earlier on. When we try to access it in ipv6_hdr(), we will dereference freed skb.

Commit 1b7fdd2a("tcp: do not use cached RTT for RTT estimation") removes important comments on how RTO is initialized and updated. Hopefully this patch puts those information back.

vxlan-udp-recv function lookup vxlan_sock struct on every packet recv by using udp-port number. we can use sk->sk_user_data to store vxlan_sock and avoid lookup. I have open coded rcu-api to store and read vxlan_sock from sk_user_data to avoid sparse warning as sk_user_data is not __rcu pointer.
