John W. Linville says: ==================== pull request: wireless-next 2014-01-01 These patches were tucked-in with me for my long winter's nap! Please pull them for the 3.14 stream... For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says: "Here I just have a collection of fixes/improvements/cleanups, very little really stands out apart from CSA fixes, vendor command support and the RCU speedups." For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says: "I have hear quite a few things. Alex continues his work on power management. Arik is reworking the transport API by unifying redudant APIs and making error handling more generic. Eyal keeps on digging in the rate scaling code. We also have two new features - Max is using the brand new generic cipher infrastructure in mac80211, and Lilach implements the smart fifo which allows to save power by making interrupt coalescing smarter." Along with those, Arend and company bring a batch of brcmfmac. Sujith and Felix bring the usual high level of ath9k activity as well. Bing gives mwifiex some love as well, and a handful of other bits get updates here and there. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The buffer that is used to pass doorbell offset to the userspace UIO driver may contain nonzero value in older versions of bnx2x driver. Userspace cannot easily tell whether it contains a valid doorbell offset or not. With the added signature, userspace will only use the doorbell offset if the signature is present. Update version to 2.5.19. Signed-off-by: Eddie Wai <eddie.wai@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Auto-mdix currently only works if autoneg is enabled. This patch enables auto-mdix all the time by setting a bit in a PHY register. Define meaningful constants for this PHY registers. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The current code does not reset the advertisement register when the speed is forced, leaving the default advertisement value of 10 Mbps. This does not work with some link partners when the next patch enables auto-mdix. Set advertisement register to 0 if the speed is forced.

Ding Tianhong says: ==================== slight optimization of addr compare for net modules This is the second patchset for slight optimization of address compare, mainly for net tree, just following the Joe's opinion, it will help review the code for maintainers and supports. v2: Change some style for patch 2. According Eric's suggestion, use the ether_addr_equal_64bits to instead of ether_addr_equal for patch 19. In fact, there are a lot of places which could use ether_addr_equal_64bits to instead of ether_addr_equal, but not this time, thanks for Joe's opinion. v3: Change some style for patch 11/19: (net: packetengines: slight optimization of addr compare). Joe pointed out that is_broadcast_ether_addr(addr) would be appropriate here, but this should be left alone and not in this patch, so fix it later. In the patch (net: caif: slight optimization of addr compare), the operand for memcmp is not mac address, so it is unsuitable to use the ether_addr_equal to compare a non mac address, so remove the patch from the series. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

skb_dst_set will use dst, if dst is NULL although is not a problem, then goto the 'no_route' and free nskb, so do the skb_dst_set is pointless. so move the skb_dst_set after dst check.

When the device tunneling offloads mode is vxlan do the following - call SET_PORT with the relevant setting - add DMFS steering vxlan rule for the device self and multicast mac addresses of the form: {<ETH, outer-mac> <VXLAN, ANY vnid> <ETH, ANY mac>} --> RSS QP - set relevant QPC fields in RSS context and RX ring QPs - in TX flow, set WQE fields to generate HW checksum, and handle gso skbs which are marked for encapsulation such that the HW will segment them properly. - in RX flow, read HW offloaded checksum for encapsulated packets from the CQE - advertize hw_enc_features and NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL to the networking stack Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add the low-level device commands and definitions used for TCP/IP HW offloads of tunneled/vxlan traffic which are supported by the ConnectX3-pro NIC. This is done through the following elements: - read tunneling device caps in QUERY_DEV_CAP - add helper function to do SET_PORT for tunneling - add DMFS VXLAN steering rule definitions - add CQE and WQE checksum offload field definitions Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In order to facilitate development for netlink protocol dissector, fill the unused field skb->pkt_type of the cloned skb with a hint of the address space of the new owner (receiver) socket in the notion of "to kernel" resp. "to user". At the time we invoke __netlink_deliver_tap_skb(), we already have set the new skb owner via netlink_skb_set_owner_r(), so we can use that for netlink_is_kernel() probing. In normal PF_PACKET network traffic, this field denotes if the packet is destined for us (PACKET_HOST), if it's broadcast (PACKET_BROADCAST), etc. As we only have 3 bit reserved, we can use the value (= 6) of PACKET_FASTROUTE as it's _not used_ anywhere in the whole kernel and not supported anywhere, and packets of such type were never exposed to user space, so there are no overlapping users of such kind. Thus, as wished, that seems the only way to make both PACKET_* values non-overlapping and therefore device agnostic. By using those two flags for netlink skbs on nlmon devices, they can be made available and picked up via sll_pkttype (previously unused in netlink context) in struct sockaddr_ll. We now have these two directions: - PACKET_USER (= 6) -> to user space - PACKET_KERNEL (= 7) -> to kernel space Partial `ip a` example strace for sa_family=AF_NETLINK with detected nl msg direction: syscall: direction: sendto(3, ...) = 40 /* to kernel */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 3404 /* to user */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 1120 /* to user */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 20 /* to user */ sendto(3, ...) = 40 /* to kernel */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 168 /* to user */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 144 /* to user */ recvmsg(3, ...) = 20 /* to user */ Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Zawadzki <darkjames-ws@darkjames.pl> Signed-off-by: David S.

We should also deliver packets to nlmon devices when we are in netlink_unicast_kernel(), and only one of the {src,dst} sockets is user sk and the other one kernel sk. That's e.g. the case in netlink diag, netlink route, etc. Still, forbid to deliver messages from kernel to kernel sks.

Neil Horman says: ==================== sctp: Consolidate and ratelimit deprecation warnings The SCTP protocol has several deprecation warnings in its setsockopt path that can be triggered by unprivlidged users. Since these are not ratelimited, we can spam the logs quite easily here. Since these are all deprecation warnings, and that type of warning isn't uncommon in the rest of the kernel, lets make a common pr_warn_deprecated macro to produce somewhat generalized ratelimited deprecation warnings easily ==================== Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

During a recent discussion regarding some sctp socket options, it was noted that we have several points at which we issue log warnings that can be flooded at an unbounded rate by any user. Fix this by converting all the pr_warns in the sctp_setsockopt path to be pr_warn_ratelimited. Note there are several debug level messages as well. I'm leaving those alone, as, if you turn on pr_debug, you likely want lots of verbosity.
