Netfilter/nf_tables fixes for net-next
This patchset contains fixes for recent updates available in your
net-next, they are:
1) Fix double memory allocation for accounting objects that results
in a leak, this slipped through with the new quota extension,
patch from Mathieu Poirier.
2) Fix broken ordering when adding set element transactions.
3) Make sure that objects are released in reverse order in the abort
path, to avoid possible use-after-free when accessing dependencies.
4) Allow to delete several objects (as long as dependencies are
fulfilled) by using one batch. This includes changes in the use
counter semantics of the nf_tables objects.
5) Fix illegal sleeping allocation from rcu callback.

miscellaneous dm9000 driver fixes
This is a collection of changes discovered while bringing a PXA270 based board

This addresses all of my earlier issues (August 2013) listed here:

On the DM9000B, dm9000_msleep() is called during the dm9000_timeout()
routine. Since dm9000_timeout() holds the main spinlock through the
entire routine, mdelay() needs to be used rather than msleep().
Furthermore, the mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock() should be avoided so as to
not sleep with spinlocks held.

On the DM9000A/DM9000B force the initial check of the link status. The
DM9000A/B has a link status changed event and this interrupt bit isn't
always set out of reset when a cable is plugged in. This results in the
driver not seeing the cable attached link status until the cable is
removed and plugged in again.

DM9000 uses level-triggered interrupts. Some systems (PXA270) only
support edge-triggered interrupts on GPIOs. Some changes are necessary
to ensure that interrupts are not triggered while the GPIO interrupt is
masked or we will miss the interrupt forever.
* Make some helper functions called dm9000_mask_interrupts() and
dm9000_unmask_interrupts() for readability.
* dm9000_init_dm9000(): ensure that this function always leaves interrupts
masked regardless of the state when it entered the function. This is
primarily to support the situation in dm9000_open where the logic used
to go:
dm9000_open()
dm9000_init_dm9000()
unmask interrupts
request_irq()
If an interrupt occurred between unmasking the interrupt and
requesting the irq, it would be missed forever as the edge event would
never be seen by the GPIO hardware in the PXA270. This allows us to
change the logic to:
dm9000_open()
dm9000_init_dm9000()
dm9000_mask_interrupts()
request_irq()
dm9000_unmask_interrupts()
* dm9000_timeout(), dm9000_drv_resume(): Add the missing
dm9000_unmask_interrupts() now required by the change above.
* dm9000_shutdown(): Use mask helper function
* dm9000_interrupt(): Use mask/unmask helper functions

* Change a hard-coded 0x3 to NCR_RST | NCR_MAC_LBK in dm9000_reset

* The following commit updated the dm9000_probe reset routine to use NCR_RST

6741f40 DM9000B: driver initialization upgrade
and a later commit added a bug-fix to always reset the chip twice:
09ee9f8 dm9000: Implement full reset of DM9000 network device
Unfortunately, since the changes in 6741f40 were made by replacing the
dm9000_probe dm9000_reset with the adjusted iow(), the changes in
09ee9f8 were not incorporated into the dm9000_probe reset.

to get at least one "read wrong id ..." dev_err message during
dm9000_probe.

If an MPLS packet requires segmentation then use mpls_features
to determine if the software implementation should be used.
As no driver advertises MPLS GSO segmentation this will always be
the case.
I had not noticed that this was necessary before as software MPLS GSO
segmentation was already being used in my test environment. I believe that
the reason for that is the skbs in question always had fragments and the
driver I used does not advertise NETIF_F_FRAGLIST (which seems to be the
case for most drivers). Thus software segmentation was activated by
skb_gso_ok().
This introduces the overhead of an extra call to skb_network_protocol()
in the case where where CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO is set and
skb->ip_summed == CHECKSUM_NONE.
Thanks to Jesse Gross for prompting me to investigate this.

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-06-05
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Jesse fixes an issue reported by Dave Jones where a couple of FD checks
ended up using bitwise OR where it should have been bitwise AND.
Neerav removes unused defines and macros for receive LRO. Fix the driver
from allowing the user to set a larger MTU size that the hardware was
being configured to support. Refactors send version which moves code in
two places into a small helper function.
Kamil modifies register diagnostics since register ranges can vary among
the different NVMs to avoid false test results. So now we try to identify
the full range and use it for a register test and if we fail to define the
proper register range, we will only test the first register from that
group. Then removes the check for large buffer since this was added in the
case this structure changed in the future, since the AQ definition is now
mature enough that this check is no longer necessary.
Mitch fixes i40evf driver to allocate descriptors in groups of 32 since the
hardware requires it. Also fixes a crash when the ring size changed because
it would change the count before deallocating resources, causing the driver
to either free nonexistent buffers or leak leftover buffers. Fixed the
driver to notify the VF for all types of resets so the VF can attempt a
graceful reinit.
Shannon refactors stats collection to create a unifying stats update routine
to call the various stat collection routines. Removes rx_errors and
rx_missed stats since they were removed from the chip design. Added
missing VSI statistics that the hardware offers but are not apart of the
standard netdev stats.

i40evf_set_ringparam was broken in several ways. First, it only changed
the size of the first ring, and second, changing the ring size would
often result in a panic because it would change the count before
deallocating resources, causing the driver to either free nonexistent
buffers, or leak leftover buffers.
Fix this by storing the descriptor count in the adapter structure, and
updating the count for each ring each time we allocate them. This
ensures that we always free the right size ring, and always end up with
the requested count when the device is (re)opened.

Since v2.4 the capi driver used the following device nodes if
"middleware" support was enabled:
/dev/capi20
/dev/capi/0
/dev/capi/1
[...]
/dev/capi20 is a character device node. /dev/capi/0 (and up) are tty
device nodes (with a different major).
This device node (naming) scheme is not documented anywhere, as far as I
know. It was originally provided by the capifs pseudo filesystem (before
udev became available). It is required for example by the pppd
capiplugin. It was supported until a few years ago. But a number of
developments broke it:
- v2.6.6 (May 2004) renamed /dev/capi20 to /dev/capi and removed the
"/" from the name of capi's tty driver. The explanation of the patch
that did this included two examples of udev rules "to restore the old
namespace";
- either udev 154 (May 2010) or udev 179 (January 2012) stopped
allowing to rename device nodes, and thus the ability to have
/dev/capi20 appear instead of /dev/capi and /dev/capi/0 (and up)
instead of /dev/capi0 (and up);
- v3.0 (July 2011) also removed capifs. That disabled another method to
create the /dev/capi/0 (and up) device nodes.
So now users need to manually tweak their setup (eg, create /dev/capi/
and fill that with symlinks) to get things working. This is all rather
hacky and only discoverable by searching the web. Fix all this by
renaming /dev/capi back to /dev/capi20, and by setting the name of the
"capi_nc" tty driver to "capi!" so the tty device nodes appear as
/dev/capi/0 (and up).

The Kconfig symbol ISDN_DRV_AVMB1_VERBOSE_REASON is only used for
capi_info2str(). That function is only used in capidrv.c. So setting it
without setting ISDN_CAPI_CAPIDRV is pointless. Make it depend on
ISDN_CAPI_CAPIDRV, rename it to ISDN_CAPI_CAPIDRV_VERBOSE and put its
entry after ISDN_CAPI_CAPIDRV's entry.
Since this symbol seems to be primarily used for debugging, keep it off
by default. By now the last users of capidrv hopefully know all they

When creating a GSO packet segment we may need to set more than
one checksum in the packet (for instance a TCP checksum and
UDP checksum for VXLAN encapsulation). To be efficient, we want
to do checksum calculation for any part of the packet at most once.
This patch adds csum_start offset to skb_gso_cb. This tracks the
starting offset for skb->csum which is initially set in skb_segment.
When a protocol needs to compute a transport checksum it calls
gso_make_checksum which computes the checksum value from the start
of transport header to csum_start and then adds in skb->csum to get
the full checksum. skb->csum and csum_start are then updated to reflect
the checksum of the resultant packet starting from the transport header.
This patch also adds a flag to skbuff, encap_hdr_csum, which is set
in *gso_segment fucntions to indicate that a tunnel protocol needs
checksum calculation

Fix support for macvlan devices on top bonding
Currently, macvlan devices do not work well over bond interfaces.
Everything works well, untill a failover is triggered in the bond
device and then macvlan becomes unreachble untill arp entries
are flushed. This series adds needed functionality to
handle correct notifications and update switches with mac addresses
assigned to macvlans.
The first patch simply addes IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag to bonds since they
already correctly manage the unicast filter list of the slaves, so
we might as well prevent the bond from needlessly going into promiscuous
mode.
The second patch adds notifier handler to macvlan to trigger correct
ARP notifications.
The third patch adds handling for TLB and RLB modes that use special
ETH_P_LOOPBACK type packets to teach switch about mac addresses.
It also allow ARPs for the macvlan mac addresses to be handled by
RLB mode.

To make TLB mode work, the patch allows learning packets
to be sent using mac addresses assigned to macvlan devices,
also taking into an account vlans that may be between the
bond and macvlan device.
To make RLB work, all we have to do is accept ARP packets
for addresses added to the bond dev->uc list. Since RLB
mode will take care to update the peers directly with
correct mac addresses, learning packets for these addresses
do not have be send to switch.

Bonding and team drivers generate specific events during failover
that trigger switch updates. When a macvlan device is configured
on top of bonding, we want switches to learn about the macvlan
devices as well. This patch adds a handler to macvlan driver to
propagate these events to all macvlan devices. We let the generic
inetdev event handler do the work.
This allows macvlan to operated correctly over active-backup
mode bond.

Bonding devices manage the unicast filters of the underlying
interfaces, but do not turn on IFF_UNICAST_FLT flag. Thus
anytime a unicast address is added to the bond, the bond is
places in promiscuous mode.
Turn on IFF_UNICAST_FLT on the bond device so that the bond does
not go into promiscuous mode needlesly. If an underlying device
does not support unicast filtering, that device will automaticall
enter promiscuous mode already.

Yes, fib_triestat is just a regular file.
A small detail (assuming CONFIG_NET_NS=y) is that while for seq_files
you could do seq_file_net() to get the net ptr, doing so for a regular
file would be wrong and would dereference an invalid pointer.
The fib_triestat lie claimed a victim, and trying to show the file would
be bad for the kernel. This patch just reverts the issue and fixes
fib_triestat, which still needs a rewrite to either be a seq_file or
stop claiming it is.
