      rxrpc: Note a successfully aborted kernel operation · 84a4c09c
      David Howells authored
      Make rxrpc_kernel_abort_call() return an indication as to whether it
      actually aborted the operation or not so that kafs can trace the failure of
      the operation.  Note that 'success' in this context means changing the
      state of the call, not necessarily successfully transmitting an ABORT
      packet.

      rxrpc: Use negative error codes in rxrpc_call struct · 3a92789a
      David Howells authored
      Use negative error codes in struct rxrpc_call::error because that's what
      the kernel normally deals with and to make the code consistent.  We only
      turn them positive when transcribing into a cmsg for userspace recvmsg.

      bonding: attempt to better support longer hw addresses · faeeb317
      Jarod Wilson authored
      People are using bonding over Infiniband IPoIB connections, and who knows
      what else. Infiniband has a hardware address length of 20 octets
      (INFINIBAND_ALEN), and the network core defines a MAX_ADDR_LEN of 32.
      Various places in the bonding code are currently hard-wired to 6 octets
      (ETH_ALEN), such as the 3ad code, which I've left untouched here. Besides,
      only alb is currently possible on Infiniband links right now anyway, due
      to commit 1533e773, so the alb code is where most of the changes are.
      
      One major component of this change is the addition of a bond_hw_addr_copy
      function that takes a length argument, instead of using ether_addr_copy
      everywhere that hardware addresses need to be copied about. The other
      major component of this change is converting the bonding code from using
      struct sockaddr for address storage to struct sockaddr_storage, as the
      former has an address storage space of only 14, while the latter is 128
      minus a few, which is necessary to support bonding over device with up to
      MAX_ADDR_LEN octet hardware addresses. Additionally, this probably fixes
      up some memory corruption issues with the current code, where it's
      possible to write an infiniband hardware address into a sockaddr declared
      on the stack.
      
      Lightly tested on a dual mlx4 IPoIB setup, which properly shows a 20-octet
      hardware address now:

      sfc: don't insert mc_list on low-latency firmware if it's too long · 148cbab6
      Edward Cree authored
      If the mc_list is longer than 256 addresses, we enter mc_promisc mode.
      If we're in mc_promisc mode and the firmware doesn't support cascaded
       multicast, normally we also insert our mc_list, to prevent stealing by
       another VI.  However, if the mc_list was too long, this isn't really
       helpful - the MC groups that didn't fit in the list can still get
       stolen, and having only some of them stealable will probably cause
       more confusing behaviour than having them all stealable.  Since
       inserting 256 multicast filters takes a long time and can lead to MCDI
       state machine timeouts, just skip the mc_list insert in this overflow
       condition.
