The kernel checks for cases of data structure corruption under some
CONFIGs (e.g. CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST). When corruption is detected, some
systems may want to BUG() immediately instead of letting the system run
with known corruption. Usually these kinds of manipulation primitives can
be used by security flaws to gain arbitrary memory write control. This
provides a new config CONFIG_BUG_ON_DATA_CORRUPTION and a corresponding
macro CHECK_DATA_CORRUPTION for handling these situations. Notably, even
if not BUGing, the kernel should not continue processing the corrupted
structure.
This is inspired by similar hardening by Syed Rameez Mustafa in MSM
kernels, and in PaX and Grsecurity, which is likely in response to earlier
removal of the BUG calls in commit 924d9addb9b1 ("list debugging: use
WARN() instead of BUG()").

Similar to the list_add() debug consolidation, this commit consolidates
the debug checking performed during CONFIG_DEBUG_LIST into a new
__list_del_entry_valid() function, and stops list updates when corruption
is found.

This commit consolidates the debug checking for list_add_rcu() into the
new single __list_add_valid() debug function. Notably, this commit fixes
the sanity check that was added in commit 17a801f4bfeb ("list_debug:
WARN for adding something already in the list"), which wasn't checking
RCU-protected lists.

Right now, __list_add() code is repeated either in list.h or in
list_debug.c, but the only differences between the two versions
are the debug checks. This commit therefore extracts these debug
checks into a separate __list_add_valid() function and consolidates
__list_add(). Additionally this new __list_add_valid() function will stop
list manipulations if a corruption is detected, instead of allowing for
further corruption that may lead to even worse conditions.
This is slight refactoring of the same hardening done in PaX and Grsecurity.

Currently, each interfaces assumes it receives an equal portion
of HW/FW resources, but this is wasteful - different partitions
[and specifically, parititions exposing different protocol support]
might require different resources.
Implement a new resource learning scheme where the information is
received directly from the management firmware [which has knowledge
of all of the functions and can serve as arbiter].

Management firmware is interested in various tidbits about
the driver - including the driver state & several configuration
related fields [MTU, primtary MAC, etc.].
This adds the necessray logic to update MFW with such configurations,
some of which are passed directly via qed while for others APIs
are provide so that qede would be able to later configure if needed.
This also introduces a new default configuration for MTU which would
replace the default inherited by being an ethernet device.

This patch adds support for setting and using XPS when QoS via traffic
classes is enabled. With this change we will factor in the priority and
traffic class mapping of the packet and use that information to correctly
select the queue.
This allows us to define a set of queues for a given traffic class via
mqprio and then configure the XPS mapping for those queues so that the
traffic flows can avoid head-of-line blocking between the individual CPUs
if so desired.

Add a sysfs attribute for a Tx queue that allows us to determine the
traffic class for a given queue. This will allow us to more easily
determine this in the future. It is needed as XPS will take the traffic

from one traffic class into another.

Each socket operates in a network namespace where it has been created,
so if we want to dump and restore a socket, we have to know its network
namespace.
We have a socket_diag to get information about sockets, it doesn't
report sockets which are not bound or connected.
This patch introduces a new socket ioctl, which is called SIOCGSKNS
and used to get a file descriptor for a socket network namespace.
A task must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in a target network namespace to
use this ioctl.

Mellanox mlx5 core driver updates 2016-10-25
This series contains some updates and fixes of mlx5 core and
IB drivers with the addition of two features that demand
new low level commands and infrastructure updates.
- SRIOV VF max rate limit support
- mlx5e tc support for FWD rules with counter.
Needed for both net and rdma subsystems.
Updates and Fixes:
From Saeed Mahameed (2):
- mlx5 IB: Skip handling unknown mlx5 events
- Add ConnectX-5 PCIe 4.0 VF device ID
From Artemy Kovalyov (2):
- Update struct mlx5_ifc_xrqc_bits
- Ensure SRQ physical address structure endianness
From Eugenia Emantayev (1):
- Fix length of async_event_mask
New Features:
From Mohamad Haj Yahia (3): mlx5 SRIOV VF max rate limit support
- Introduce TSAR manipulation firmware commands
- Introduce E-switch QoS management
- Add SRIOV VF max rate configuration support
From Mark Bloch (7): mlx5e Tc support for FWD rule with counter
- Don't unlock fte while still using it
- Use fte status to decide on firmware command
- Refactor find_flow_rule
- Group similar rules under the same fte
- Add multi dest support
- Add option to add fwd rule with counter
- mlx5e tc support for FWD rule with counter
Mark here fixed two trivial issues with the flow steering core, and did
some refactoring in the flow steering API to support adding mulit destination
rules to the same hardware flow table entry at once. In the last two patches
added the ability to populate a flow rule with a flow counter to the same flow entry.
V2: Dropped some patches that added new structures without adding any usage of them.
Added SRIOV VF max rate configuration support patch that introduces
the usage of the TSAR infrastructure.
Added flow steering fixes and refactoring in addition to mlx5 tc
support for forward rule with counter.

Currently we dropped freeze protection of aio writes just after IO was
submitted. Thus aio write could be in flight while the filesystem was
frozen and that could result in unexpected situation like aio completion
wanting to convert extent type on frozen filesystem. Testcase from
Dmitry triggering this is like:
for ((i=0;i<60;i++));do fsfreeze -f /mnt ;sleep 1;fsfreeze -u /mnt;done &
fio --bs=4k --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=128 --size=1g --direct=1 \
--runtime=60 --filename=/mnt/file --name=rand-write --rw=randwrite
Fix the problem by dropping freeze protection only once IO is completed
in aio_complete().

Currently when calling mlx5_add_flow_rule we accept
only one flow destination, this commit allows to pass
multiple destinations.
This change forces us to change the return structure to a more
flexible one. We introduce a flow handle (struct mlx5_flow_handle),
it holds internally the number for rules created and holds an array
where each cell points the to a flow rule.
From the consumers (of mlx5_add_flow_rule) point of view this
change is only cosmetic and requires only to change the type
of the returned value they store.
From the core point of view, we now need to use a loop when
allocating and deleting rules (e.g given to us a flow handler).

TSAR (stands for Transmit Scheduling ARbiter) is a hardware component
that is responsible for selecting the next entity to serve on the
transmit path.
The arbitration defines the QoS policy between the agents connected to
the TSAR.
The TSAR is a consist two main features:
1) BW Allocation between agents:
The TSAR implements a defecit weighted round robin between the agents.
Each agent attached to the TSAR is assigned with a weight and it is
awarded transmission tokens according to this weight.
2) Rate limer per agent:
Each agent attached to the TSAR is (optionally) assigned with a rate
limit.
TSAR will not allow scheduling for an agent exceeding its defined rate
limit.
In this patch we implement the API of manipulating the TSAR.

Per listen(fd, backlog) rules, there is really no point accepting a SYN,
sending a SYNACK, and dropping the following ACK packet if accept queue
is full, because application is not draining accept queue fast enough.
This behavior is fooling TCP clients that believe they established a
flow, while there is nothing at server side. They might then send about
10 MSS (if using IW10) that will be dropped anyway while server is under

Currently the block layer op_is_write, bio_data_dir and rq_data_dir
helper treat every operation that is not a READ as a data out operation.
This worked surprisingly long, but the new REQ_OP_ZONE_REPORT operation
actually adds a second operation that reads data from the device.
Surprisingly nothing critical relied on this direction, but this might
be a good opportunity to properly fix this issue up.
We take a little inspiration and use the least significant bit of the
operation number to encode the data direction, which just requires us
to renumber the operations to fix this scheme.

Now that we don't need the common flags to overflow outside the range
of a 32-bit type we can encode them the same way for both the bio and
request fields. This in addition allows us to place the operation
first (and make some room for more ops while we're at it) and to
stop having to shift around the operation values.
In addition this allows passing around only one value in the block layer
instead of two (and eventuall also in the file systems, but we can do
that later) and thus clean up a lot of code.
Last but not least this allows decreasing the size of the cmd_flags
field in struct request to 32-bits. Various functions passing this
value could also be updated, but I'd like to avoid the churn for now.

A lot of the REQ_* flags are only used on struct requests, and only of
use to the block layer and a few drivers that dig into struct request
internals.
This patch adds a new req_flags_t rq_flags field to struct request for
them, and thus dramatically shrinks the number of common requests. It
also removes the unfortunate situation where we have to fit the fields
from the same enum into 32 bits for struct bio and 64 bits for
struct request.

It's the last bio-only REQ_* flag, and we have space for it in the bio
bi_flags field.

The information that am I/O is a read-ahead can be useful for drivers.
In fact the NVMe driver already checks it, even if it won't ever be set
at the moment.

So move it into the common setion of the request flags.
