This function has usage beside IPsec so move it to the core skbuff code.
While doing so, give it some documentation and change its return type to
'unsigned char *' to be in line with skb_put().

Changing MTU size of an xgmac network interface while it is active can
cause a panic like
skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:c03bc62c len:1090 put:1090 head:edfb6900 data:edfb6942 tail:0xedfb6d84 end:0xedfb6bc0 dev:eth0

kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:126!
Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] SMP ARM
Modules linked in:
CPU: 0 PID: 762 Comm: python Tainted: G W 3.10.0-00015-g3e33cd7 #309
task: edcfe000 ti: ed67e000 task.ti: ed67e000
PC is at skb_panic+0x64/0x70
LR is at wake_up_klogd+0x5c/0x68
This happens because xgmac_change_mtu modifies dev->mtu before the
network interface is quiesced. And thus there still might be buffers
in use which have a buffer size based on the old MTU.
To fix this I moved the change of dev->mtu after the call to
xgmac_stop.
Another modification is required (in xgmac_stop) to ensure that
xgmac_xmit is really not called anymore (xgmac_tx_complete might wake
up the queue again).
I've tested the fix by switching MTU size every second between 600 and
1500 while network traffic was going on. The test box survived a test
of several hours (until I've stopped it) whereas w/o this fix above
panic occurs after several minutes (at most).
Change since v1:
- remove call to netif_stop_queue at beginning of xgmac_stop
- use netif_tx_disable instead of locking+netif_stop_queue

For each RX/TX ring and its CQ, allocation is done on a NUMA node that
corresponds to the core that the data structure should operate on.
The assumption is that the core number is reflected by the ring index.
The affected allocations are the ring/CQ data structures,
the TX/RX info and the shared HW/SW buffer.
For TX rings, each core has rings of all UPs.

Currently all TX/RX rings and completion queues are part of the
netdev priv structure and are allocated statically. This patch
will change the priv to hold only arrays of pointers and therefore
all TX/RX rings and completetion queues will be allocated
dynamically. This is in preparation for NUMA aware allocations.

To guarantee that all unused fields in all FW commands for both inboxes
and outboxes are zeroed out, initialize the mailbox buffer to all zeroes.
This is especially important for SRIOV comm-channel virtual commands
(such as QUERY_FUNC_CAP), where if new fields are added to support new
features, the driver can depend on older kernels passing zeroes in these
fields.
In addition to zeroing out the mailbox buffer at allocation time, all
(now unnecessary) calls to memset by the callers of
mlx4_alloc_cmd_mailbox() are removed.

====================
l2 hardware accelerated macvlans
This patch adds support to offload macvlan net_devices to the
hardware. With these patches packets are pushed to the macvlan
net_device directly and do not pass through the lower dev.
The patches here have made it through multiple iterations
each with a slightly different focus. First I tried to
push these as a new link type called "VMDQ". The patches
shown here,
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/237617
Following this implementation I renamed the link type
"VSI" and addressed various comments. Finally Neil
Horman picked up the patches and integrated the offload
into the macvlan code. Here,
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/285658
The attached series is clean-up of his patches, with a
few fixes.
If folks find this series acceptable there are a few
items we can work on next. First broadcast and multicast
will use the hardware even for local traffic with this
series. It would be best (I think) to use the software
path for macvlan to macvlan traffic and save the PCIe
bus. This depends on how much you value CPU time vs
PCIE bandwidth. This will need another patch series
to flush out.
Also this series only allows for layer 2 mac forwarding
where some hardware supports more interesting forwarding
capabilities. Integrating with OVS may be useful here.
As always any comments/feedback welcome.
My basic I/O test is here but I've also done some link
testing, SRIOV/DCB with macvlans and others,
Changelog:
v2: two fixes to ixgbe when all features DCB, FCoE, SR-IOV
are enabled with macvlans. A VMDQ_P() reference
should have been accel->pool and do not set the offset
of the ring index from dfwd add call. The offset is used
by SR-IOV so clearing it can cause SR-IOV quue index's
to go sideways. With these fixes testing macvlan's with
SRIOV enabled was successful.
v3: addressed Neil's comments in ixgbe
fixed error path on dfwd_add_station() in ixgbe
fixed ixgbe to allow SRIOV and accelerated macvlans to
coexist.
v4: Dave caught some strange indentation, fixed it here

Add a operations structure that allows a network interface to export
the fact that it supports package forwarding in hardware between
physical interfaces and other mac layer devices assigned to it (such

in hardware more efficiently.

Provide a method for read-only access to the vlan device egress mapping.
Do this by refactoring vlan_dev_get_egress_qos_mask() such that now it
receives as an argument the skb priority instead of pointer to the skb.
Such an access is needed for the IBoE stack where the control plane
goes through the network stack. This is an add-on step on top of commit
d4a968658c "net/route: export symbol ip_tos2prio" which allowed the RDMA-CM
to use ip_tos2prio.

If build_skb fails the memory associated with the ring buffer is freed but
the ri->data member is not zeroed in this case. This causes a double-free
of this memory in tg3_free_rings->... path. The patch moves this block after
setting ri->data to NULL.
It would be nice to fix this bug also in stable >= v3.4 trees.

Pull perf/ftrace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Dave Jones's trinity program was able to enable the function tracer
from a normal user account via the perf syscall "perf_event_open()".
When I was able to reproduce it with trinity, I was able to track down
exactly how it happened.
I discovered that the check for whether the function tracepoint should
be activated or not was using the "perf_paranoid_kernel()" check which
by default, lets the user continue. The user should not by default be
able to enable function tracing.
The fix is to use "perf_paranoid_tracepoint_raw()" which will not let
the user enable function tracing. This is a security fix as normal
users should never be allowed to enable the function tracer"

If appending a received fragment to the pending fragment chain
in a unicast link fails, the current code tries to force a retransmission
of the fragment by decrementing the 'next received sequence number'
field in the link. This is done under the assumption that the failure
is caused by an out-of-memory situation, an assumption that does
not hold true after the previous patch in this series.
A failure to append a fragment can now only be caused by a protocol
violation by the sending peer, and it must hence be assumed that it
is either malicious or buggy. Either way, the correct behavior is now
to reset the link instead of trying to revert its sequence number.
So, this is what we do in this commit.

When the first fragment of a long data data message is received on a link, a
reassembly buffer large enough to hold the data from this and all subsequent
fragments of the message is allocated. The payload of each new fragment is
copied into this buffer upon arrival. When the last fragment is received, the
reassembled message is delivered upwards to the port/socket layer.
Not only is this an inefficient approach, but it may also cause bursts of
reassembly failures in low memory situations. since we may fail to allocate
the necessary large buffer in the first place. Furthermore, after 100 subsequent
such failures the link will be reset, something that in reality aggravates the
situation.
To remedy this problem, this patch introduces a different approach. Instead of
allocating a big reassembly buffer, we now append the arriving fragments
to a reassembly chain on the link, and deliver the whole chain up to the
socket layer once the last fragment has been received. This is safe because
the retransmission layer of a TIPC link always delivers packets in strict
uninterrupted order, to the reassembly layer as to all other upper layers.
Hence there can never be more than one fragment chain pending reassembly at
any given time in a link, and we can trust (but still verify) that the
fragments will be chained up in the correct order.

When a message fragment is received in a broadcast or unicast link,
the reception code will append the fragment payload to a big reassembly
buffer through a call to the function tipc_recv_fragm(). However, after
the return of that call, the logics goes on and passes the fragment
buffer to the function tipc_net_route_msg(), which will simply drop it.
This behavior is a remnant from the now obsolete multi-cluster
functionality, and has no relevance in the current code base.
Although currently harmless, this unnecessary call would be fatal
after applying the next patch in this series, which introduces
a completely new reassembly algorithm. So we change the code to
eliminate the redundant call.

STI text console (sticon) was broken on 64bit machines with more than
4GB RAM and this lead in some cases to a kernel crash.
Since sticon uses the 32bit STI API it needs to keep pointers to memory
below 4GB. But on a 64bit kernel some memory regions (e.g. the kernel
stack) might be above 4GB which then may crash the kernel in the STI
functions.
Additionally sticon didn't selected the built-in framebuffer fonts by
default. This is now fixed.
On a side-note: Theoretically we could enhance the sticon driver to
use the 64bit STI API. But - beside the fact that some machines don't
provide a 64bit STI ROM - this would just add complexity.

Each CPU has it's own Control Register 16 (CR16) which is used as time source
for the udelay() function. But since the CR16 registers across different CPUs
are not synced, we need to recalculate the loop count if we get switched away
to ensure that we really delay as much time as requested.

Install targets (install, zinstall, uinstall) on parisc have a
dependency to vmlinux. This may cause parts of the kernel to be rebuilt
during installation. We must avoid this since this may run as root.
Install targets "ABSOLUTELY MUST NOT MODIFY THE SOURCE TREE." as Linus
emphasized this in:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/10/600
So on parisc and maybe other archs we need the same as for x86:
1648e4f8 x86, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux
This parisc patch was inspired by:
19514fc6 arm, kbuild: make "make install" not depend on vmlinux

Provide a macro ASM_EXCEPTIONTABLE_ENTRY() to create exception table
entries and convert all open-coded places to use that macro.
This patch is a first step toward creating a exception table which only
holds 32bit pointers even on a 64bit kernel. That way in my own kernel
I was able to reduce the in-kernel exception table from 44kB to 22kB.

Pull CIFS updates from Steve French:
"Includes a couple of fixes, plus changes to make multiplex identifiers
easier to read and correlate with network traces, and a set of
enhancements for SMB3 dialect. Also adds support for per-file
compression for both cifs and smb2/smb3 ("chattr +c filename).
Should have at least one other merge request ready by next week with
some new SMB3 security features and copy offload support"

When allocating memory space for DMA buffer, use on-chip internal SRAM
as default choice to save power. Since the core would allocate memory
from traditional external memory if iram allocation failed, we don't
need to worry about any side effect.

This patch aims to extend round-robin mode with a new option called
packets_per_slave which can have the following values and effects:
0 - choose a random slave
1 (default) - standard round-robin, 1 packet per slave
>1 - round-robin when >1 packets have been transmitted per slave
The allowed values are between 0 and 65535.
This patch also fixes the comment style in bond_xmit_roundrobin().

Leaving BUG_ON() in a core layer like dapm is rather inappropriate as
it leads to panic(), even though sanity checks might be still useful
for debugging.
Instead, Use WARN_ON(), and handle the error cases accordingly.
