llid_in_use needs to be limited to stations of the same VIF, otherwise it
will cause a NULL deref as the sta_info of non-mesh-VIFs don't have
sta->mesh set.
Steps to reproduce:
modprobe mac80211_hwsim channels=2
iw phy phy0 interface add ibss0 type ibss
iw phy phy0 interface add mesh0 type mp
iw phy phy1 interface add ibss1 type ibss
iw phy phy1 interface add mesh1 type mp
ip link set ibss0 up
ip link set mesh0 up
ip link set ibss1 up
ip link set mesh1 up
iw dev ibss0 ibss join foo 2412
iw dev ibss1 ibss join foo 2412
# Ensure that ibss0 and ibss1 are actually associated; I often need to
# leave and join the cell on ibss1 a second time.
iw dev mesh0 mesh join bar
iw dev mesh1 mesh join bar # crash

When 11n peers performs a TDLS connection on a legacy BSS, the HT
operation IE must be specified according to IEEE802.11-2012 section
9.23.3.2. Otherwise HT-protection is compromised and the medium becomes
noisy for both the TDLS and the BSS links.

Scheduled scan has to be reconfigured only if wowlan wasn't
configured, since otherwise it should continue to run (with
the 'any' trigger) or be aborted.
The current code will end up asking the driver to start a new
scheduled scan without stopping the previous one, and leaking
some memory (from the previous request.)
Fix this by doing the abort/restart under the proper conditions.

If drv_start() fails during hw_restart, all the running
interfaces are being closed/stopped, which results in
drv_stop() being called, although the driver was never
started successfully.
This might cause drivers to perform operations on uninitialized
memory (as they assume it was initialized on drv_start)
Consider the local->started flag, and call the driver's stop()
op only if drv_start() succeeded before.
Move drv_start() and drv_stop() to driver-ops.c, as they are no
longer simple wrappers.

The recalc_smps work can run after the station disassociates.
At this stage we already released the channel, but the work
will be cancelled only when the interface stops.
In this scenario we can hit the warning in ieee80211_recalc_smps, so
just remove it.

Requesting hw restart during suspend might result
in the restart work being executed after mac80211
and the hw are suspended.
Solve the race by simply scheduling the restart
work on a freezable workqueue.
Note that there can be some cases of reconfiguration
on resume (besides the hardware restart):
* wowlan is not configured -
All the interfaces removed were removed on suspend,
and drv_stop() was called. At this point the driver
shouldn't expect for hw_restart anyway, so we can
simply cancel it (on resume).
* wowlan is configured, drv_resume() == 1
There is no definitive expected behavior in this case,
as each driver might have different expectations (e.g.
setting some flags on suspend/restart vs. not handling
spurious recovery).
For now, simply let the hw_restart work run again after
resume, and hope the driver will handle it well (or at
least initiate another hw restart).

When probing devices-in-package for a c45 phy, device zero is the last
device to probe, however, if driver reads 0 from device zero,
c45_ids->devices_in_package is set to '0', the loop condition of probing
will be matched again, see codes below:
for (i = 1;i < num_ids && c45_ids->devices_in_package == 0;i++)
driver will run in a dead loop.
This patch restructures the bug and confusing loop, it provides a helper
function get_phy_c45_devs_in_pkg which to read devices-in-package registers
of a MMD, and rewrites the loop with using the helper function.

There are some netdev features, which when disabled on an upper device,
such as a bonding master or a bridge, must be disabled and cannot be
re-enabled on underlying devices.
This is a rework of an earlier more heavy-handed appraoch, which simply
disables and prevents re-enabling of netdev features listed in a new
define in include/net/netdev_features.h, NETIF_F_UPPER_DISABLES. Any upper
device that disables a flag in that feature mask, the disabling will
propagate down the stack, and any lower device that has any upper device
with one of those flags disabled should not be able to enable said flag.
Initially, only LRO is included for proof of concept, and because this
code effectively does the same thing as dev_disable_lro(), though it will
also activate from the ethtool path, which was one of the goals here.

This has been successfully tested with bnx2x, qlcnic and netxen network
cards as slaves in a bond interface. Turning LRO on or off on the master
also turns it on or off on each of the slaves, new slaves are added with
LRO in the same state as the master, and LRO can't be toggled on the
slaves.
Also, this should largely remove the need for dev_disable_lro(), and most,
if not all, of its call sites can be replaced by simply making sure
NETIF_F_LRO isn't included in the relevant device's feature flags.
Note that this patch is driven by bug reports from users saying it was
confusing that bonds and slaves had different settings for the same
features, and while it won't be 100% in sync if a lower device doesn't
support a feature like LRO, I think this is a good step in the right
direction.

When the IP stack passes SKBs the sfc driver puts them in 2 different TX
queues (called partners), one for checksummed and one for not checksummed.
If the SKB has xmit_more set the driver will delay pushing the work to the
NIC.
When later it does decide to push the buffers this patch ensures it also
pushes the partner queue, if that also has any delayed work. Before this
fix the work in the partner queue would be left for a long time and cause
a netdev watchdog.

Mahesh Bandewar says:
====================
re-org actor admin/oper key updates
I was observing machines entering into weird LACP state when the
partner is in passive mode. This issue is not because of the partners
in passive state but probably because of some operational key update
which is pushing the state-machine is that weird state. This was
happening randomly on about 1% of the machine (when the sample size
is a large set of machines with a variety of NICs/ports bonded).
In this patch-series I'm attempting to unify the logic of actor-key
/ operational-key changes to one place to avoid possible errors in
update. Also this eliminates the need for the event-handler to decide
if the key needs update.
After this patch-set none of the machines (from same sample set) were
exhibiting LACP-weirdness that was observed earlier.

actor_admin, and actor_oper key is changed at multiple locations in
the code. This patch brings all those updates into one location in
an attempt to avoid possible inconsistent updates causing LACP state
machine to go in weird state.
The unified place is ad_update_actor_key() with simple state-machine
logic -
(a) If port is "duplex" then only it can participate in LACP
(b) Speed change reinitializes the LACP state-machine.

This work adds support for "persistent" eBPF maps/programs. The term
"persistent" is to be understood that maps/programs have a facility
that lets them survive process termination. This is desired by various
eBPF subsystem users.
Just to name one example: tc classifier/action. Whenever tc parses
the ELF object, extracts and loads maps/progs into the kernel, these
file descriptors will be out of reach after the tc instance exits.
So a subsequent tc invocation won't be able to access/relocate on this
resource, and therefore maps cannot easily be shared, f.e. between the
ingress and egress networking data path.
The current workaround is that Unix domain sockets (UDS) need to be
instrumented in order to pass the created eBPF map/program file
descriptors to a third party management daemon through UDS' socket
passing facility. This makes it a bit complicated to deploy shared
eBPF maps or programs (programs f.e. for tail calls) among various
processes.
We've been brainstorming on how we could tackle this issue and various
approches have been tried out so far, which can be read up further in
the below reference.
The architecture we eventually ended up with is a minimal file system
that can hold map/prog objects. The file system is a per mount namespace
singleton, and the default mount point is /sys/fs/bpf/. Any subsequent
mounts within a given namespace will point to the same instance. The
file system allows for creating a user-defined directory structure.
The objects for maps/progs are created/fetched through bpf(2) with
two new commands (BPF_OBJ_PIN/BPF_OBJ_GET). I.e. a bpf file descriptor
along with a pathname is being passed to bpf(2) that in turn creates
(we call it eBPF object pinning) the file system nodes. Only the pathname
is being passed to bpf(2) for getting a new BPF file descriptor to an
existing node. The user can use that to access maps and progs later on,
through bpf(2). Removal of file system nodes is being managed through
normal VFS functions such as unlink(2), etc. The file system code is
kept to a very minimum and can be further extended later on.
The next step I'm working on is to add dump eBPF map/prog commands
to bpf(2), so that a specification from a given file descriptor can
be retrieved. This can be used by things like CRIU but also applications
can inspect the meta data after calling BPF_OBJ_GET.
Big thanks also to Alexei and Hannes who significantly contributed
in the design discussion that eventually let us end up with this
architecture here.
