      net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: move Global2 code · ec561276
      Vivien Didelot authored 
      Marvell chips are composed of multiple SMI devices. One of them at
address 0x1C is called Global2. It provides an extended set of
registers, used for interrupt control, EEPROM access, indirect PHY
access (to bypass the PHY Polling Unit) and cross-chip related setup.

Most chips have it, but some others don't (older ones such as 6060).

Now that its related code is isolated in mv88e6xxx_g2_* functions, move
it to its own global2.c file, making most of its setup code static.
Document each registers in the meantime.

Its compilation can be later avoided for chips without such registers.

      Vivien Didelot authored 
      Since the mv88e6xxx.c file has been renamed, the driver compiled as a
module is called chip.ko instead of mv88e6xxx.ko. Fix this.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree.  Most relevant updates are the removal of per-conntrack timers to
use a workqueue/garbage collection approach instead from Florian
Westphal, the hash and numgen expression for nf_tables from Laura
Garcia, updates on nf_tables hash set to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag,
removal of ip_conntrack sysctl and many other incremental updates on our
Netfilter codebase.

More specifically, they are:

1) Retrieve only 4 bytes to fetch ports in case of non-linear skb
   transport area in dccp, sctp, tcp, udp and udplite protocol
   conntrackers, from Gao Feng.

2) Missing whitespace on error message in physdev match, from Hangbin Liu.

3) Skip redundant IPv4 checksum calculation in nf_dup_ipv4, from Liping Zhang.

4) Add nf_ct_expires() helper function and use it, from Florian Westphal.

5) Replace opencoded nf_ct_kill() call in IPVS conntrack support, also
   from Florian.

6) Rename nf_tables set implementation to nft_set_{name}.c

7) Introduce the hash expression to allow arbitrary hashing of selector
   concatenations, from Laura Garcia Liebana.

8) Remove ip_conntrack sysctl backward compatibility code, this code has
   been around for long time already, and we have two interfaces to do
   this already: nf_conntrack sysctl and ctnetlink.

9) Use nf_conntrack_get_ht() helper function whenever possible, instead
   of opencoding fetch of hashtable pointer and size, patch from Liping Zhang.

10) Add quota expression for nf_tables.

11) Add number generator expression for nf_tables, this supports
    incremental and random generators that can be combined with maps,
    very useful for load balancing purpose, again from Laura Garcia Liebana.

12) Fix a typo in a debug message in FTP conntrack helper, from Colin Ian King.

13) Introduce a nft_chain_parse_hook() helper function to parse chain hook
    configuration, this is used by a follow up patch to perform better chain
    update validation.

14) Add rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_key() to rhashtable and use it from the
    nft_set_hash implementation to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag.

15) Missing nulls check in nf_conntrack from nf_conntrack_tuple_taken(),
    patch from Florian Westphal.

16) Don't use the DYING bit to know if the conntrack event has been already
    delivered, instead a state variable to track event re-delivery
    states, also from Florian.

17) Remove the per-conntrack timer, use the workqueue approach that was
    discussed during the NFWS, from Florian Westphal.

18) Use the netlink conntrack table dump path to kill stale entries,
    again from Florian.

19) Add a garbage collector to get rid of stale conntracks, from
    Florian.

20) Reschedule garbage collector if eviction rate is high.

21) Get rid of the __nf_ct_kill_acct() helper.

22) Use ARPHRD_ETHER instead of hardcoded 1 from ARP logger.

23) Make nf_log_set() interface assertive on unsupported families.

      rtnetlink: fdb dump: optimize by saving last interface markers · d297653d
      Roopa Prabhu authored 
      fdb dumps spanning multiple skb's currently restart from the first
interface again for every skb. This results in unnecessary
iterations on the already visited interfaces and their fdb
entries. In large scale setups, we have seen this to slow
down fdb dumps considerably. On a system with 30k macs we
see fdb dumps spanning across more than 300 skbs.

To fix the problem, this patch replaces the existing single fdb
marker with three markers: netdev hash entries, netdevs and fdb
index to continue where we left off instead of restarting from the
first netdev. This is consistent with link dumps.

In the process of fixing the performance issue, this patch also
re-implements fix done by
commit 472681d5 ("net: ndo_fdb_dump should report -EMSGSIZE to rtnl_fdb_dump")
(with an internal fix from Wilson Kok) in the following ways:
- change ndo_fdb_dump handlers to return error code instead
of the last fdb index
- use cb->args strictly for dump frag markers and not error codes.
This is consistent with other dump functions.

Below results were taken on a system with 1000 netdevs
and 35085 fdb entries:
before patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l
15065

real    1m11.791s
user    0m0.070s
sys 1m8.395s

(existing code does not return all macs)

after patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l
35085

real    0m2.017s
user    0m0.113s
sys 0m1.942s
