      net: sched: use pfifo_fast for non real queues · 1f27cde3
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      Some devices declare a high number of TX queues, then set a much
lower real_num_tx_queues

This cause setups using fq_codel, sfq or fq as the default qdisc to consume
more memory than really needed.

      net: ipv6: Fix refcnt on host routes · 799977d9
      David Ahern authored 
      Andrew and Ying Huang's test robot both reported usage count problems that
trace back to the 'keep address on ifdown' patch.

>From Andrew:
We execute CRIU test on linux-next. On the current linux-next kernel
they hangs on creating a network namespace.

The kernel log contains many massages like this:
[ 1036.122108] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free.
Usage count = 2
[ 1046.165156] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free.
Usage count = 2
[ 1056.210287] unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free.
Usage count = 2

I tried to revert this patch and the bug disappeared.

Here is a set of commands to reproduce this bug:

[root@linux-next-test linux-next]# uname -a
Linux linux-next-test 4.5.0-rc6-next-20160301+ #3 SMP Wed Mar 2
17:32:18 UTC 2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[root@linux-next-test ~]# unshare -n
[root@linux-next-test ~]# ip link set up dev lo
[root@linux-next-test ~]# ip a
1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
group default qlen 1
    link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
    inet 127.0.0.1/8 scope host lo
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
    inet6 ::1/128 scope host
       valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
[root@linux-next-test ~]# logout
[root@linux-next-test ~]# unshare -n

 -----

The problem is a change made to RTM_DELADDR case in __ipv6_ifa_notify that
was added in an early version of the offending patch and is no longer
needed.

      net: ezchip: adapt driver to little endian architecture · b54b8c2d
      Lada Trimasova authored 
      Since ezchip network driver is written with big endian EZChip platform it
is necessary to add support for little endian architecture.

The first issue is that the order of the bits in a bit field is
implementation specific. So all the bit fields are removed.
Named constants are used to access necessary fields.

And the second one is that network byte order is big endian.
For example, data on ethernet is transmitted with most-significant
octet (byte) first. So in case of little endian architecture
it is important to swap data byte order when we read it from
register. In case of unaligned access we can use "get_unaligned_be32"
and in other case we can use function "ioread32_rep" which reads all
data from register and works either with little endian or big endian
architecture.

And then when we are going to write data to register we need to restore
byte order using the function "put_unaligned_be32" in case of
unaligned access and in other case "iowrite32_rep".

The last little fix is a space between type and pointer to observe
coding style.

      sh_eth, ravb: Use ARCH_RENESAS · 274ba628
      Simon Horman authored 
      Make use of ARCH_RENESAS in place of ARCH_SHMOBILE.

This is part of an ongoing process to migrate from ARCH_SHMOBILE to
ARCH_RENESAS the motivation for which being that RENESAS seems to be a more
appropriate name than SHMOBILE for the majority of Renesas ARM based SoCs.

      net: mellanox: add DEVLINK dependencies · 3d1cbe83
      Arnd Bergmann authored 
      The new NET_DEVLINK infrastructure can be a loadable module, but the drivers
using it might be built-in, which causes link errors like:

drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mlx4_load_one':
:(.text+0x2fbfda): undefined reference to `devlink_port_register'
:(.text+0x2fc084): undefined reference to `devlink_port_unregister'
drivers/net/built-in.o: In function `mlxsw_sx_port_remove':
:(.text+0x33a03a): undefined reference to `devlink_port_type_clear'
:(.text+0x33a04e): undefined reference to `devlink_port_unregister'

There are multiple ways to avoid this:

a) add 'depends on NET_DEVLINK || !NET_DEVLINK' dependencies
   for each user
b) use 'select NET_DEVLINK' from each driver that uses it
   and hide the symbol in Kconfig.
c) make NET_DEVLINK a 'bool' option so we don't have to
   list it as a dependency, and rely on the APIs to be
   stubbed out when it is disabled
d) use IS_REACHABLE() rather than IS_ENABLED() to check for
   NET_DEVLINK in include/net/devlink.h

This implements a variation of approach a) by adding an
intermediate symbol that drivers can depend on, and changes
the three drivers using it.
