fd13a9abeb ixgbevf: Drop netdev_registered value since that is already stored in netdev
There is no need to keep a separate netdev_registered value since that is
already stored in the netdev itself.

77d5dfca41 ixgbevf: Drop all dead or unnecessary code
There is a large amount of code present in this driver to support features
that either do no exist or are not supported such ask packet split, DCA, or
RSC.  This patch strips out almost all of that code and in the case of
conditionals based on unused flags I am flatting the code out to just the
path that would have been selected.

7f9f78ab96 mac80211: fix tx-mgmt cookie value being left uninitialized
commit "mac80211: unify SW/offload remain-on-channel"
moved the cookie assignment from ieee80211_mgmt_tx()
to ieee80211_start_roc_work().  But the latter is only
called where offchannel is needed.  If offchannel isn't
needed/used, a uninitialized cookie value would be returned
to userspace.

This patch sets the cookie value when offchannel isn't used.

282f23c6ee tcp: implement RFC 5961 3.2
Implement the RFC 5691 mitigation against Blind
Reset attack using RST bit.

Idea is to validate incoming RST sequence,
to match RCV.NXT value, instead of previouly accepted
window : (RCV.NXT <= SEG.SEQ < RCV.NXT+RCV.WND)

If sequence is in window but not an exact match, send
a "challenge ACK", so that the other part can resend an
RST with the appropriate sequence.

Add a new sysctl, tcp_challenge_ack_limit, to limit
number of challenge ACK sent per second.

Add a new SNMP counter to count number of challenge acks sent.
(netstat -s | grep TCPChallengeACK)

0008204ffe s390/idle: fix sequence handling vs cpu hotplug
The s390 idle accounting code uses a sequence counter which gets used
when the per cpu idle statistics get updated and read.

One assumption on read access is that only when the sequence counter is
even and did not change while reading all values the result is valid.
On cpu hotplug however the per cpu data structure gets initialized via
a cpu hotplug notifier on CPU_ONLINE.
CPU_ONLINE however is too late, since the onlined cpu is already running
and might access the per cpu data. Worst case is that the data structure
gets initialized while an idle thread is updating its idle statistics.
This will result in an uneven sequence counter after an update.

As a result user space tools like top, which access /proc/stat in order
to get idle stats, will busy loop waiting for the sequence counter to
become even again, which will never happen until the queried cpu will
update its idle statistics again. And even then the sequence counter
will only have an even value for a couple of cpu cycles.

Fix this by moving the initialization of the per cpu idle statistics
to cpu_init(). I prefer that solution in favor of changing the
notifier to CPU_UP_PREPARE, which would be a different solution to
the problem.

da78b7998e can: softing: softing_main: ensure a consistent return value in error case
Typically, the return value desired for the failure of a function with an
integer return value is a negative integer.  In these cases, the return
value is sometimes a negative integer and sometimes 0, due to a subsequent
initialization of the return variable within the loop.

A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is:

5a308f40bf netem: refine early skb orphaning
netem does an early orphaning of skbs. Doing so breaks TCP Small Queue
or any mechanism relying on socket sk_wmem_alloc feedback.

Ideally, we should perform this orphaning after the rate module and
before the delay module, to mimic what happens on a real link :

skb orphaning is indeed normally done at TX completion, before the
transit on the link.

+-------+   +--------+  +---------------+  +-----------------+
+ Qdisc +---> Device +--> TX completion +--> links / hops    +->
+       +   +  xmit  +  + skb orphaning +  + propagation     +
+-------+   +--------+  +---------------+  +-----------------+
      < rate limiting >                  < delay, drops, reorders >

If netem is used without delay feature (drops, reorders, rate
limiting), then we should avoid early skb orphaning, to keep pressure
on sockets as long as packets are still in qdisc queue.

Ideally, netem should be refactored to implement delay module
as the last stage. Current algorithm merges the two phases
(rate limiting + delay) so its not correct.

ef209f1598 net: cgroup: fix access the unallocated memory in netprio cgroup
there are some out of bound accesses in netprio cgroup.

now before accessing the dev->priomap.priomap array,we only check
if the dev->priomap exist.and because we don't want to see
additional bound checkings in fast path, so we should make sure
that dev->priomap is null or array size of dev->priomap.priomap
is equal to max_prioidx + 1;

so in write_priomap logic,we should call extend_netdev_table when
dev->priomap is null and dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len.
and in cgrp_create->update_netdev_tables logic,we should call
extend_netdev_table only when dev->priomap exist and
dev->priomap.priomap_len < max_len.

and it's not needed to call update_netdev_tables in write_priomap,
we can only allocate the net device's priomap which we change through
net_prio.ifpriomap.

this patch also add a return value for update_netdev_tables &
extend_netdev_table, so when new_priomap is allocated failed,
write_priomap will stop to access the priomap,and return -ENOMEM
back to the userspace to tell the user what happend.

Change From v3:
1. add rtnl protect when reading max_prioidx in write_priomap.

2. only call extend_netdev_table when map->priomap_len < max_len,
   this will make sure array size of dev->map->priomap always
   bigger than any prioidx.

3. add a function write_update_netdev_table to make codes clear.

Change From v2:
1. protect extend_netdev_table by RTNL.
2. when extend_netdev_table failed,call dev_put to reduce device's refcount.

of what is expected i.e. the default 512 hash_max will not allow
the hash table to grow larger than 256.

Also print the hash table limit instead of the desirable size when
the limit is reached.

This should be ">=" here instead of ">".  MLX4_NET_TRANS_RULE_NUM is 6.

f0396f60d7 ipv6: fix RTPROT_RA markup of RA routes w/nexthops
Userspace implementations of network routing protocols sometimes need to
tell RA-originated IPv6 routes from other kernel routes to make proper
routing decisions. This makes most sense for RA routes with nexthops,
namely, default routes and Route Information routes.

The intended mean of preserving RA route origin in a netlink message is
through indicating RTPROT_RA as protocol code. Function rt6_fill_node()
tried to do that for default routes, but its test condition was taken
wrong. This change is modeled after the original mailing list posting
by Jeff Haran. It fixes the test condition for default route case and
sets the same behaviour for Route Information case (both types use
nexthops). Handling of the 3rd RA route type, Prefix Information, is
left unchanged, as it stands for interface connected routes (without
nexthops).

1ce09e899d hyperv: Add support for setting MAC from within guests
This adds support for setting synthetic NIC MAC address from within Linux
guests. Before using this feature, the option "spoofing of MAC address"
should be enabled at the Hyper-V manager / Settings of the synthetic
NIC.

Thanks to Kin Cho <kcho@infoblox.com> for the initial implementation and
tests. And, thanks to Long Li <longli@microsoft.com> for the debugging
works.

5e96855fc5 6lowpan: Change byte order when storing/accessing to len field
Lenght field should be encoded using big endian byte order, such as intend in the specs.
As it is currently written, the len field would not be decoded properly on an implementation using the correct byte ordering. Hence, it could lead to interroperability issues.

Also, I rewrote the code so that iphc0 argument of lowpan_alloc_new_frame could be removed.

d4787a1543 6lowpan: Fix null pointer dereference in UDP uncompression function
When a UDP packet gets fragmented, a crash will occur at reassembly time.
This is because skb->transport_header is not set during earlier period of fragment reassembly.
As a consequence, call to udp_hdr() return NULL and uh (which is NULL) gets
dereferenced without much test.

936597631d ixgbevf: Prevent RX/TX statistics getting reset to zero
The commit 4197aa7bb8 implements 64 bit
per ring statistics. But the driver resets the 'total_bytes' and
'total_packets' from RX and TX rings in the RX and TX interrupt
handlers to zero. This results in statistics being lost and user space
reporting RX and TX statistics as zero. This patch addresses the
issue by preventing the resetting of RX and TX ring statistics to
zero.
