When IPv6 address is set without IPv6 configured, the vxlan socket is mostly
treated as an IPv4 one but various lookus in fdb etc. still take the
AF_INET6 into account. This creates incosistencies with weird consequences.
Just reject IPv6 addresses in such case.

vxlan_setup is called when allocating the net_device, i.e. way before
vxlan_newlink (or vxlan_dev_configure) is called. This means
vxlan->default_dst is actually unset in vxlan_setup and the condition that
sets needed_headroom always takes the else branch.
Set the needed_headrom at the point when we have the information about
the address family available.

For arcnet the bare minimum header only contains the 4 bytes to
specify source, dest and offset (1, 1 and 2 bytes respectively).
The corresponding struct is struct arc_hardware.
The struct archdr contains additionally a union of possible soft
headers. When doing $insertusecasehere packets might well
include short (or even no?) soft headers.
For this reason only use arc_hardware instead of archdr to
determine the hard_header_len for an arcnet device.

net: bcmgenet: Interrupt coalescing
This patch series adds support for interrupt coalescing for GENET

====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Add support for the ethtool rx-frames coalescing parameter which allows
defining the number of RX interrupts per frames received. The RDMA
engine supports a configurable timeout with a resolution of
approximately 8.192 us.
We can no longer enable the BDONE/PDONE interrupts as those would
fire for each packet/buffer received, which would defeat the MBDONE
interrupt purpose. The MBDONE interrupt is guaranteed to correspond to a
PDONE/BDONE interrupt when the threshold is set to 1.

Configuring the ethtool tx-frames property, which translates into N
packets before a TX interrupt is the simplest configuration scheme
because it requires no locking neither at the softare nor hardware
level, and is completely indepedent from the link speed. Since ethtool
does not allow per-tx queue coalescing parameters, we apply the same
setting to any transmit queue.
We can no longer enable the BDONE/PDONE interrupts as those would fire
for each packet/buffer received, which would defeat the MBDONE interrupt
purpose. The MBDONE interrupt is guaranteed to correspond to a
PDONE/BDONE interrupt when the threshold is set to 1, but offers
interrupt coalescing when the value is > 1.
Since the HW is configured to generate an interrupt when the ring
becomes emtpy, we have to deny any timeout/timer settings coming from
user-space to indicate we can only generate an interrupt very <N>
packets.
While we are at it, fix the DMA_INTR_THRESHOLD_MASK value which was off
by one bit (0xff vs. 0x1ff).

David Woodhouse reports skb_under_panic when we try to push ethernet
header to fragmented ipv6 skbs:
skbuff: skb_under_panic: text:c1277f1e len:1294 put:14 head:dec98000
data:dec97ffc tail:0xdec9850a end:0xdec98f40 dev:br-lan
[..]
ip6_finish_output2+0x196/0x4da
David further debugged this:
[..] offending fragments were arriving here with skb_headroom(skb)==10.
Which is reasonable, being the Solos ADSL card's header of 8 bytes
followed by 2 bytes of PPP frame type.
The problem is that if netfilter ipv6 defragmentation is used, skb_cow()
in ip6_forward will only see reassembled skb.
Therefore, headroom is overestimated by 8 bytes (we pulled fragment
header) and we don't check the skbs in the frag_list either.
We can't do these checks in netfilter defrag since outdev isn't known yet.
Furthermore, existing tests in ip6_fragment did not consider the fragment
or ipv6 header size when checking headroom of the fraglist skbs.
While at it, also fix a skb leak on memory allocation -- ip6_fragment
must consume the skb.
I tested this e1000 driver hacked to not allocate additional headroom
(we end up in slowpath, since LL_RESERVED_SPACE is 16).
If 2 bytes of headroom are allocated, fastpath is taken (14 byte
ethernet header was pulled, so 16 byte headroom available in all
fragments).

This was demonstrated by a panic when handling fragmented IPv6 packets:

It's not entirely clear if that comment is still valid — and if it is,
perhaps netif_rx() ought to be enforcing it with a warning.
But either way, it is rather stupid from a performance point of view
for us to be receiving packets into a buffer which doesn't have enough
room to prepend an Ethernet header — it means that *every* incoming
packet is going to be need to be reallocated. So let's fix that.

Some string_get_size() calls (e.g.:
string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...)
string_get_size(15, 64, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...)
) result in an infinite loop. The problem is that if size is equal to
divisor[units]/blk_size and is smaller than divisor[units] we'll end
up with size == 0 when we start doing sf_cap calculations:
For string_get_size(1, 512, STRING_UNITS_10, ..., ...) case:
...
remainder = do_div(size, divisor[units]); -> size is 0, remainder is 1
remainder *= blk_size; -> remainder is 512
...
size *= blk_size; -> size is still 0
size += remainder / divisor[units]; -> size is still 0
The caller causing the issue is sd_read_capacity(), the problem was
noticed on Hyper-V, such weird size was reported by host when scanning
collides with device removal. This is probably a separate issue worth
fixing, this patch is intended to prevent the library routine from
infinite looping.

The shadow which correspond 16 bytes memory may span 2 or 3 bytes. If

check "shadow_first_bytes" is enough, and need not to call
"memory_is_poisoned_1(addr + 15);". But the code "if
(likely(!last_byte))" is wrong judgement.
e.g. addr=0, so last_byte = 15 & KASAN_SHADOW_MASK = 7, then the code

bpf: performance improvements
v1->v2: dropped redundant iff_up check in patch 2
At plumbers we discussed different options on how to get rid of skb_clone
from bpf_clone_redirect(), the patch 2 implements the best option.
Patch 1 adds 'integrated exts' to cls_bpf to improve performance by
combining simple actions into bpf classifier.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Existing bpf_clone_redirect() helper clones skb before redirecting
it to RX or TX of destination netdev.
Introduce bpf_redirect() helper that does that without cloning.
Benchmarked with two hosts using 10G ixgbe NICs.
One host is doing line rate pktgen.
Another host is configured as:
$ tc qdisc add dev $dev ingress
$ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:2 \
action bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section clone_redirect_xmit drop
so it receives the packet on $dev and immediately xmits it on $dev + 1
The section 'clone_redirect_xmit' in tcbpf1_kern.o file has the program
that does bpf_clone_redirect() and performance is 2.0 Mpps
$ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:2 \
action bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section redirect_xmit drop
which is using bpf_redirect() - 2.4 Mpps
and using cls_bpf with integrated actions as:
$ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 \
bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section redirect_xmit integ_act classid 1
performance is 2.5 Mpps
To summarize:
u32+act_bpf using clone_redirect - 2.0 Mpps
u32+act_bpf using redirect - 2.4 Mpps
cls_bpf using redirect - 2.5 Mpps
For comparison linux bridge in this setup is doing 2.1 Mpps
and ixgbe rx + drop in ip_rcv - 7.8 Mpps

We'd like to provide one as well for SYNACK packets, so that all packets
of a given flow share same txhash, to later enable bonding driver to
also use skb->hash to perform slave selection.
Note that a SYNACK retransmit shuffles the tx hash, as Tom did
in commit 265f94ff54 ("net: Recompute sk_txhash on negative routing

This has nice effect making TCP flows resilient to some kind of black

====================
Passing net through the netfilter hooks
My primary goal with this patchset and it's follow ups is to cleanup the
network routing paths so that we do not look at the output device to
derive the network namespace. My plan is to pass the network namespace
of the transmitting socket through the output path, to replace code that
looks at the output network device today. Once that is done we can have
routes with output devices outside of the current network namespace.
Which should allow reception and transmission of packets in network
namespaces to be as fast as normal packet reception and transmission
with early demux disabled, because it will same code path.
Once skb_dst(skb)->dev is a little better under control I think it will
also be possible to use rcu to cleanup the ancient hack that sets
dst->dev to loopback_dev when a network device is removed.
The work to get there is a series of code cleanups. I am starting with
passing net into the netfilter hooks and into the functions that are
called after the netfilter hooks. This removes from netfilter the
need to guess which network namespace it is working on.
To get there I perform a series of minor prep patches so the big changes
at the end are possible to audit without getting lost in the noise. In
particular I have a lot of patches computing net into a local variable
and then using it through out the function.
So this patchset encompases removing dead code, sorting out the _sk
functions that were added last time someone pushed a prototype change
through the post netfilter functions. Cleaning up individual functions
use of the network namespace. Passing net into the netfilter hooks.
Passing net into the post netfilter functions. Using state->net in
the netfilter code where it is available and trivially usable.
Pablo, Dave I don't know whose tree this makes more sense to go
through. I am assuming at least initially Pablos as netfilter is
involved. From what I have seen there will be a lot of back and forth
between the netfilter code paths and the routing code paths.
The patches are also available (against 4.3-rc1) at:

In code review it was noticed that I had failed to add some blank lines
in places where they are customarily used. Taking a second look at the
code I have to agree blank lines would be nice so I have added them
here.

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that
call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would
need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process
packets in.
As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions
after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in
many cases a code simplification.
To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to
simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn
just silently drops the struct net.

Instead of saying "net = dev_net(state->in?state->in:state->out)"
just say "state->net". As that information is now availabe,
much less confusing and much less error prone.
