This change allows us to later indicate to rtnetlink core that certain doit functions should be called without acquiring rtnl_mutex.

The UDP offload conflict is dealt with by simply taking what is in net-next where we have removed all of the UFO handling code entirely. The TCP conflict was a case of local variables in a function being removed from both net and net-next. In netvsc we had an assignment right next to where a missing set of u64 stats sync object inits were added. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-08-07net: switchdev: Remove bridge bypass support from switchdevArkadi Sharshevsky
Currently the bridge port flags, vlans, FDBs and MDBs can be offloaded through the bridge code, making the switchdev's SELF bridge bypass implementation to be redundant. This implies several changes: - No need for dump infra in switchdev, DSA's special case is handled privately. - Remove obj_dump from switchdev_ops. - FDBs are removed from obj_add/del routines, due to the fact that they are offloaded through the bridge notification chain. - The switchdev_port_bridge_xx() and switchdev_port_fdb_xx() functions can be removed.

2017-08-07ipv6: sr: define core operations for seg6local lightweight tunnelDavid Lebrun
This patch implements a new type of lightweight tunnel named seg6local. A seg6local lwt is defined by a type of action and a set of parameters. The action represents the operation to perform on the packets matching the lwt's route, and is not necessarily an encapsulation. The set of parameters are arguments for the processing function. Each action is defined in a struct seg6_action_desc within seg6_action_table[]. This structure contains the action, mandatory attributes, the processing function, and a static headroom size required by the action. The mandatory attributes are encoded as a bitmask field. The static headroom is set to a non-zero value when the processing function always add a constant number of bytes to the skb (e.g. the header size for encapsulations). To facilitate rtnetlink-related operations such as parsing, fill_encap, and cmp_encap, each type of action parameter is associated to three function pointers, in seg6_action_params[]. All actions defined in seg6_local.h are detailed in [1].

Dump all the FIB tables in each net namespace upon registration to the FIB notification chain so that the callee will have a complete view of the tables. The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-table sequence counter that is incremented (under write lock) whenever a route is added or deleted from the table. All the sequence counters are read (under each table's read lock) and summed, prior and after the dump. In case the counters differ, then the dump is either restarted or the registration fails. While it's possible for a table to be modified after its counter has been read, this isn't really a problem. In case it happened before it was read the second time, then the comparison at the end will fail. If it happened afterwards, then we're guaranteed to be notified about the change, as the notification block is registered prior to the second read.
