Commit 6fd99094 ("ipv6: Don't reduce hop limit for an interface") disabled accept hop limit from RA if it is smaller than the current hop limit for security stuff. But this behavior kind of break the RFC definition. RFC 4861, 6.3.4. Processing Received Router Advertisements A Router Advertisement field (e.g., Cur Hop Limit, Reachable Time, and Retrans Timer) may contain a value denoting that it is unspecified. In such cases, the parameter should be ignored and the host should continue using whatever value it is already using. If the received Cur Hop Limit value is non-zero, the host SHOULD set its CurHopLimit variable to the received value. So add sysctl option accept_ra_min_hop_limit to let user choose the minimum hop limit value they can accept from RA. And set default to 1 to meet RFC standards.

It can be useful for testing to see the actual process/pid who is loading a given filter. I was running some BPF test program and noticed unusual filter loads from time to time, triggered by some other application in the background. bpf_jit_disasm is still working after this change.

When bpf_jit_compile() got split into two functions via commit f3c2af7b ("net: filter: x86: split bpf_jit_compile()"), bpf_jit_dump() was changed to always show 0 as number of compiler passes. Change it to dump the actual number. Also on sparc, we count passes starting from 0, so add 1 for the debug dump as well.

During recent discussions we had with Michael, we found that it would be useful to have an indicator that tells the JIT that an eBPF program had been migrated from classic instructions into eBPF instructions, as only in that case A and X need to be cleared in the prologue. Such eBPF programs do not set a particular type, but all have BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC. Thus, introduce a small helper for cde66c2d ("s390/bpf: Only clear A and X for converted BPF programs") and possibly others in future.

As JITs start to perform optimizations whether to clear A and X on eBPF programs in the prologue, we should actually assign a program type to the native eBPF test cases. It doesn't really matter which program type, as these instructions don't go through the verifier, but it needs to be a type != BPF_PROG_TYPE_UNSPEC. This reflects eBPF programs loaded via bpf(2) system call (!= type unspec) vs. classic BPF to eBPF migrations (== type unspec).

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== Introduce Mellanox Technologies Switch ASICs switchdev drivers This patchset introduces Mellanox Technologies Switch driver infrastructure and support for SwitchX-2 ASIC. The driver is divided into 3 logical parts: 1) Bus - implements switch bus interface. Currently only PCI bus is implemented, but more buses will be added in the future. Namely I2C and SGMII. (patch #2) 2) Driver - implemements of ASIC-specific functions. Currently SwitchX-2 ASIC is supported, but a plan exists to introduce support for Spectrum ASIC in the near future. (patch #4) 3) Core - infrastructure that glues buses and drivers together. It implements register access logic (EMADs) and takes care of RX traps and events.

Benefit from the previously introduced Mellanox Switch infrastructure and add driver for SwitchX-2 ASIC. Note that this driver is very simple now. It implements bare minimum for getting device to work on slow-path. Fast-path offload functionality is going to be added soon.

Ethernet Management Datagrams (EMADs) are Ethernet packets sent between the host and the device in order to configure the available device registers. Another use case is notifications sent from the device to the host, letting it know about certain events, such as port up / down. Add the ability to construct EMADs with provisions to construct and parse the registers' payloads. Implement EMAD transaction layer which is responsible for the reliable transmission of EMADs. Also, add an infrastructure used by the switch driver to register for particular events generated by the device.

Add core components of Mellanox switch driver infrastructure. Core infrastructure is designed so that it can be used by multiple bus drivers (PCI now, I2C and SGMII are planned to be implemented in the future). Multiple switch kind drivers can be registered as well. This core serves as a glue between buses and drivers.

Current driver always uses vlan-promisc mode, i.e., it receives both tagged and untagged traffic and lets the network stack drop packets tagged with unrequested vlan tags. This patch implements vlan-filtering offload in the driver - Unless explicitly configured to promisc mode, only untagged packets or packets tagged with requested vlans would reach the Rx flow.

It was used to update netdev priv parameters that require stopping and re-opening the device in a generic way - it got the new parameters and did: ndo_stop(), copy new parameters into current parameters, ndo_open(). We chose to remove it for two reasons: 1) It requires additional instance of struct mlx5e_params on the stack and looking forward we expect this struct to grow. 2) Sometimes we want to do additional operations (besides just updating the priv parameters) while the netdev is stopped. For example, updating netdev->mtu @mlx5e_change_mtu() should be done while the netdev is stopped (done in this commit).

As part of defconfig consolidation using fragments, we'd like to be able to have the same drivers enabled on 32-bit and 64-bit. Gianfar happens to only exist on 32-bit systems, and when building the resulting 64-bit kernel warnings were produced. A couple of the warnings are trivial, but the rfbptr code has deeper issues. It uses the virtual address as the DMA address, which again, happens to work in the environments where this driver is currently used, but is not the right thing to do.

Tom Herbert says: ==================== net: Initialize sk_hash to random value and reset for failing cnxs This patch set implements a common function to simply set sk_txhash to a random number instead of going through the trouble to call flow dissector. From dst_negative_advice we now reset the sk_txhash in hopes of finding a better ECMP path through the network. Changing sk_txhash affects: - IPv6 flow label and UDP source port which affect ECMP in the network - Local ECMP route selection (pending changes to use sk_txhash) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When a connection is failing a transport protocol calls dst_negative_advice to try to get a better route. This patch includes changing the sk_txhash in that function. This provides a rudimentary method to try to find a different path in the network since sk_txhash affects ECMP on the local host and through the network (via flow labels or UDP source port in encapsulation).

This patch creates sk_set_txhash and eliminates protocol specific inet_set_txhash and ip6_set_txhash. sk_set_txhash simply sets a random number instead of performing flow dissection. sk_set_txash is also allowed to be called multiple times for the same socket, we'll need this when redoing the hash for negative routing advice.

On some of the K2E and K2L platforms, the two DWORDs in efuse occupied by the pre-programmed mac address for slave port 1 are swapped. To workaround this issue, this patch adds a new define NETCP_EFUSE_ADDR_SWAP (2) which signifies the occurrence of such swapping so that the driver can take proper action. The flag can be enabled in the corresponding netcp interface dts binding as efuse-mac = <2> under the corresponding netcp interface node.

In commit d999297c ("tipc: reduce locking scope during packet reception") we introduced a new function tipc_build_bcast_sync_msg(), which carries initial synchronization data between two nodes at first contact and at re-contact. In this function, we missed to add synchronization data, with the effect that the broadcast link endpoints will fail to synchronize correctly at re-contact between a running and a restarted node. All other cases work as intended. With this commit, we fix this bug. Signed-off-by: Jon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
