This simplifies the code since there's no longer a need to
have error handling in the registration.
Unfortunately it means more extern function declarations are
needed, but the overall goal would seem to justify this.
While at it, also fix the registration error path - if the
family registration failed then it shouldn't be unregistered.

Bug has been introduced by commit bb8140947a24 ("ip6tnl: allow to use rtnl ops
on fb tunnel").
When ip6_tunnel.ko is unloaded, FB device is delete by rtnl_link_unregister()
and then we try to use the pointer in ip6_tnl_destroy_tunnels().
Let's add an handler for dellink, which will never remove the FB tunnel. With
this patch it will no more be possible to remove it via 'ip link del ip6tnl0',
but it's safer.
The same fix was already proposed by Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> for
sit interfaces.

When a link local address was added to a sit interface, the corresponding route
was not configured. This breaks routing protocols that use the link local
address, like OSPFv3.
To ease the code reading, I remove sit_route_add(), which only adds v4 mapped
routes, and add this kind of route directly in sit_add_v4_addrs(). Thus link
local and v4 mapped routes are configured in the same place.

When the local IPv4 endpoint is wilcard (0.0.0.0), the prefix length is
correctly set, ie 64 if the address is a link local one or 96 if the address is
a v4 mapped one.
But when the local endpoint is specified, the prefix length is set to 128 for
both kind of address. This patch fix this wrong prefix length.

Bug: The fallback device is created in sit_init_net and assumed to be
freed in sit_exit_net. First, it is dereferenced in that function, in
sit_destroy_tunnels:
struct net *net = dev_net(sitn->fb_tunnel_dev);
Prior to this, rtnl_unlink_register has removed all devices that match
rtnl_link_ops == sit_link_ops.
Commit 205983c43700 added the line
+ sitn->fb_tunnel_dev->rtnl_link_ops = &sit_link_ops;
which cases the fallback device to match here and be freed before it
is last dereferenced.
Fix: This commit adds an explicit .delllink callback to sit_link_ops
that skips deallocation at rtnl_unlink_register for the fallback
device. This mechanism is comparable to the one in ip_tunnel.
It also modifies sit_destroy_tunnels and its only caller sit_exit_net
to avoid the offending dereference in the first place. That double
lookup is more complicated than required.
Test: The bug is only triggered when CONFIG_NET_NS is enabled. It
causes a GPF only when CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB is enabled. Verified that
this bug exists at the mentioned commit, at davem-net HEAD and at
3.11.y HEAD. Verified that it went away after applying this patch.

Because dma-debug add new interfaces to debug dma mapping errors, pls refer
to: http://lwn.net/Articles/516640/
After dma mapping, it must call dma_mapping_error() to check mapping error,
otherwise the map_err_type alway is MAP_ERR_NOT_CHECKED, check_unmap() define
the mapping is not checked and dump the error msg. So,add dma_mapping_error()
checking to fix the WARNING
And RX DMA buffers are used repeatedly and the driver copies it into an skb,
fec_enet_rx() should not map or unmap, use dma_sync_single_for_cpu()/dma_sync_single_for_device()
instead of dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single().
There have another potential issue: fec_enet_rx() passes the DMA address to __va().
Physical and DMA addresses are *not* the same thing. They may differ if the device
is behind an IOMMU or bounce buffering was required, or just because there is a fixed
offset between the device and host physical addresses. Also fix it in this patch.
=============================================
V2: add net_ratelimit() to limit map err message.
use dma_sync_single_for_cpu() instead of dma_map_single().
fix the issue that pass DMA addresses to __va() to get virture address.

recovering (v3)
When a transport recovers due to the new coming sack, SCTP should
iterate all of its transport_list to locate the __two__ most recently used
transport and set to active_path and retran_path respectively. The exising
code does not find the two properly - In case of the following list:
[most-recent] -> [2nd-most-recent] -> ...
Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the 1st element.
The bug happens when:
1) multi-homing
2) failure/partial_failure transport recovers
Both active_path and retran_path would be set to the same most-recent one, in
other words, retran_path would not take its role - an end user might not even
notice this issue.

This patch fixes two race conditions between bond_store_updelay/downdelay
and bond_store_miimon which could lead to division by zero as miimon can
be set to 0 while either updelay/downdelay are being set and thus miss the
zero check in the beginning, the zero div happens because updelay/downdelay
are stored as new_value / bond->params.miimon. Use rtnl to synchronize with
miimon setting.

After commit c9eeec26e32e ("tcp: TSQ can use a dynamic limit"), several
users reported throughput regressions, notably on mvneta and wifi
adapters.
802.11 AMPDU requires a fair amount of queueing to be effective.
This patch partially reverts the change done in tcp_write_xmit()
so that the minimal amount is sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes.
It also remove the use of this sysctl while building skb stored
in write queue, as TSO autosizing does the right thing anyway.
Users with well behaving NICS and correct qdisc (like sch_fq),
can then lower the default sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes value from
128KB to 8KB.
This new usage of sysctl_tcp_limit_output_bytes permits each driver
authors to check how their driver performs when/if the value is set
to a minimum of 4KB.
Normally, line rate for a single TCP flow should be possible,
but some drivers rely on timers to perform TX completion and
too long TX completion delays prevent reaching full throughput.

Also correct the error code for hardware versions that don't

We currently use hdr_len as a hint of head length which is advertised by
guest. But when guest advertise a very big value, it can lead to an 64K+
allocating of kmalloc() which has a very high possibility of failure when host
memory is fragmented or under heavy stress. The huge hdr_len also reduce the
effect of zerocopy or even disable if a gso skb is linearized in guest.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
1) The addition of nftables. No longer will we need protocol aware
firewall filtering modules, it can all live in userspace.
At the core of nftables is a, for lack of a better term, virtual
machine that executes byte codes to inspect packet or metadata
(arriving interface index, etc.) and make verdict decisions.
Besides support for loading packet contents and comparing them, the
interpreter supports lookups in various datastructures as
fundamental operations. For example sets are supports, and
therefore one could create a set of whitelist IP address entries
which have ACCEPT verdicts attached to them, and use the appropriate
byte codes to do such lookups.
Since the interpreted code is composed in userspace, userspace can
do things like optimize things before giving it to the kernel.
Another major improvement is the capability of atomically updating
portions of the ruleset. In the existing netfilter implementation,
one has to update the entire rule set in order to make a change and
this is very expensive.
Userspace tools exist to create nftables rules using existing
netfilter rule sets, but both kernel implementations will need to
co-exist for quite some time as we transition from the old to the
new stuff.
Kudos to Patrick McHardy, Pablo Neira Ayuso, and others who have
worked so hard on this.
2) Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa made several improvements
to our pseudo-random number generator, mostly used for things like
UDP port randomization and netfitler, amongst other things.
In particular the taus88 generater is updated to taus113, and test
cases are added.
3) Support 64-bit rates in HTB and TBF schedulers, from Eric Dumazet
and Yang Yingliang.
4) Add support for new 577xx tigon3 chips to tg3 driver, from Nithin
Sujir.
5) Fix two fatal flaws in TCP dynamic right sizing, from Eric Dumazet,
Neal Cardwell, and Yuchung Cheng.
6) Allow IP_TOS and IP_TTL to be specified in sendmsg() ancillary
control message data, much like other socket option attributes.
From Francesco Fusco.
7) Allow applications to specify a cap on the rate computed
automatically by the kernel for pacing flows, via a new
SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option. From Eric Dumazet.
8) Make the initial autotuned send buffer sizing in TCP more closely
reflect actual needs, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Currently early socket demux only happens for TCP sockets, but we
can do it for connected UDP sockets too. Implementation from Shawn
Bohrer.
10) Refactor inet socket demux with the goal of improving hash demux
performance for listening sockets. With the main goals being able
to use RCU lookups on even request sockets, and eliminating the
listening lock contention. From Eric Dumazet.
11) The bonding layer has many demuxes in it's fast path, and an RCU
conversion was started back in 3.11, several changes here extend the
RCU usage to even more locations. From Ding Tianhong and Wang
Yufen, based upon suggestions by Nikolay Aleksandrov and Veaceslav
Falico.
12) Allow stackability of segmentation offloads to, in particular, allow
segmentation offloading over tunnels. From Eric Dumazet.
13) Significantly improve the handling of secret keys we input into the
various hash functions in the inet hashtables, TCP fast open, as
well as syncookies. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. The key fundamental
operation is "net_get_random_once()" which uses static keys.
Hannes even extended this to ipv4/ipv6 fragmentation handling and
our generic flow dissector.
14) The generic driver layer takes care now to set the driver data to
NULL on device removal, so it's no longer necessary for drivers to
explicitly set it to NULL any more. Many drivers have been cleaned
up in this way, from Jingoo Han.
15) Add a BPF based packet scheduler classifier, from Daniel Borkmann.
16) Improve CRC32 interfaces and generic SKB checksum iterators so that
SCTP's checksumming can more cleanly be handled. Also from Daniel
Borkmann.
17) Add a new PMTU discovery mode, IP_PMTUDISC_INTERFACE, which forces
using the interface MTU value. This helps avoid PMTU attacks,
particularly on DNS servers. From Hannes Frederic Sowa.
18) Use generic XPS for transmit queue steering rather than internal
(re-)implementation in virtio-net. From Jason Wang.

On 64 bit systems the test for negative message sizes is bogus as the
size, which may be positive when evaluated as a long, will get truncated
to an int when passed to load_msg(). So a long might very well contain a
positive value but when truncated to an int it would become negative.
That in combination with a small negative value of msg_ctlmax (which will
be promoted to an unsigned type for the comparison against msgsz, making
it a big positive value and therefore make it pass the check) will lead to
two problems: 1/ The kmalloc() call in alloc_msg() will allocate a too
small buffer as the addition of alen is effectively a subtraction. 2/ The
copy_from_user() call in load_msg() will first overflow the buffer with
userland data and then, when the userland access generates an access
violation, the fixup handler copy_user_handle_tail() will try to fill the
remainder with zeros -- roughly 4GB. That almost instantly results in a
system crash or reset.
,-[ Reproducer (needs to be run as root) ]--
| #include <sys/stat.h>
| #include <sys/msg.h>

| long msg = 1;
| int fd;
|

| write(fd, "-1", 2);
| close(fd);
|
| msgsnd(0, &msg, 0xfffffff0, IPC_NOWAIT);
|
| return 0;
| }
'---
Fix the issue by preventing msgsz from getting truncated by consistently
using size_t for the message length. This way the size checks in
do_msgsnd() could still be passed with a negative value for msg_ctlmax but
we would fail on the buffer allocation in that case and error out.
Also change the type of m_ts from int to size_t to avoid similar nastiness
in other code paths -- it is used in similar constructs, i.e. signed vs.
unsigned checks. It should never become negative under normal
circumstances, though.
Setting msg_ctlmax to a negative value is an odd configuration and should
be prevented. As that might break existing userland, it will be handled
in a separate commit so it could easily be reverted and reworked without
reintroducing the above described bug.
Hardening mechanisms for user copy operations would have catched that bug
early -- e.g. checking slab object sizes on user copy operations as the
usercopy feature of the PaX patch does. Or, for that matter, detect the
long vs. int sign change due to truncation, as the size overflow plugin
of the very same patch does.

When devpts is unmounted, there may be a no-longer-used IDR tree hanging
off the superblock we are about to kill. This needs to be cleaned up
before destroying the SB.
The leak is usually not a big deal because unmounting devpts is typically
done when shutting down the whole machine. However, shutting down an LXC
container instead of a physical machine exposes the problem (the garbage
is detectable with kmemleak).

Make menuconfig allows one to choose compression format of an initial
ramdisk image. But this choice does not result in duly compressed ramdisk
image. Because - $ make install - does not pass on the selected
compression choice to the dracut(8) tool, which creates the initramfs
file. dracut(8) generates the image with the default compression, ie.
gzip(1).
This patch exports the selected compression option to a sub-shell
environment, so that it could be used by dracut(8) tool to generate
appropriately compressed initramfs images.
There isn't a straightforward way to pass on options to dracut(8) via
positional parameters. Because it is indirectly invoked at the end of a $
make install sequence.
