Many tcp sysctls are either bools or small ints that can fit into u8.
Reducing space taken by sysctls can save few cache line misses
when sending/receiving data while cpu caches are empty,
for example after cpu idle period.
This is hard to measure with typical network performance tests,
but after this patch, struct netns_ipv4 has shrunk
by three cache lines.

netdev_unregister_timeout_secs=0 can lead to printing the
"waiting for dev to become free" message every jiffy.
This is too frequent and unnecessary.
Set the min value to 1 second.

When sock_wait_state() returns -EINPROGRESS, "sk->sk_state" is
LLCP_CONNECTING. In this case, llcp_sock_connect() is repeatedly invoked,
nfc_llcp_sock_link() will add sk to local->connecting_sockets twice.
sk->sk_node->next will point to itself, that will make an endless loop
and hang-up the system.
To fix it, check whether sk->sk_state is LLCP_CONNECTING in
llcp_sock_connect() to avoid repeated invoking.

DSA is aware of switches with global VLAN filtering since the blamed
commit, but it makes a bad decision when multiple bridges are spanning
the same switch:
ip link add br0 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
ip link add br1 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
ip link set swp2 master br0
ip link set swp3 master br0
ip link set swp4 master br1
ip link set swp5 master br1
ip link set swp5 nomaster
ip link set swp4 nomaster
[138665.939930] sja1105 spi0.1: port 3: dsa_core: VLAN filtering is a global setting
[138665.947514] DSA: failed to notify DSA_NOTIFIER_BRIDGE_LEAVE
When all ports leave br1, DSA blindly attempts to disable VLAN filtering
on the switch, ignoring the fact that br0 still exists and is VLAN-aware
too. It fails while doing that.
This patch checks whether any port exists at all and is under a
VLAN-aware bridge.

Reject NONE on set, this mode means device does not support
FEC so it's a little out of place in the set interface.
This should be safe to do - user space ethtool does not allow
the use of NONE on set. A few drivers treat it the same as OFF,
but none use it instead of OFF.
Similarly reject an empty FEC mask. The common user space tool
will not send such requests and most drivers correctly reject
it already.

struct ethtool_fecparam::reserved is never looked at by the core.
Make sure it's actually 0. Unfortunately we can't return an error
because old ethtool doesn't zero-initialize the structure for SET.
On GET we can be more verbose, there are no in tree (ab)users.
Fix up the kdoc on the structure. Remove the mention of FEC
bypass. Seems like a niche thing to configure in the first

In commit 73f156a6e8c1 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count")
I used a very small hash table that could be abused
by patient attackers to reveal sensitive information.
Switch to a dynamic sizing, depending on RAM size.
Typical big hosts will now use 128x more storage (2 MB)
to get a similar increase in security and reduction
of hash collisions.
As a bonus, use of alloc_large_system_hash() spreads
allocated memory among all NUMA nodes.

The dsa infrastructure provides a well-defined hierarchy of devices,
pass up the call to set up the flow block to the master device. From the
software dataplane, the netfilter infrastructure uses the dsa slave
devices to refer to the input and output device for the given skbuff.
Similarly, the flowtable definition in the ruleset refers to the dsa
slave port devices.

The egress device in the tuple is obtained from route. Use
dev_fill_forward_path() instead to provide the real egress device for
this flow whenever this is available.
The new FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_DIRECT type uses dev_queue_xmit() to transmit
ethernet frames. Cache the source and destination hardware address to
use dev_queue_xmit() to transfer packets.
The FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_DIRECT replaces FLOW_OFFLOAD_XMIT_NEIGH if
dev_fill_forward_path() finds a direct transmit path.
In case of topology updates, if peer is moved to different bridge port,

Depending on the VLAN settings of the bridge and the port, the bridge can

This patch adds dev_fill_forward_path() which resolves the path to reach
the real netdevice from the IP forwarding side. This function takes as
input the netdevice and the destination hardware address and it walks
down the devices calling .ndo_fill_forward_path() for each device until
the real device is found.
For instance, assuming the following topology:
IP forwarding
/ \
br0 eth0
/ \
eth1 eth2
.
.
.
ethX
ab:cd:ef:ab:cd:ef
where eth1 and eth2 are bridge ports and eth0 provides WAN connectivity.
ethX is the interface in another box which is connected to the eth1
bridge port.
For packets going through IP forwarding to br0 whose destination MAC
address is ab:cd:ef:ab:cd:ef, dev_fill_forward_path() provides the
following path:
br0 -> eth1
.ndo_fill_forward_path for br0 looks up at the FDB for the bridge port
from the destination MAC address to get the bridge port eth1.
This information allows to create a fast path that bypasses the classic
bridge and IP forwarding paths, so packets go directly from the bridge
port eth1 to eth0 (wan interface) and vice versa.

The call to br_vlan_replay_one is returning an error return value but
this is not being assigned to err and the following check on err is
currently always false because err was initialized to zero. Fix this
by assigning err.

When an MRP instance was created, the driver was notified that the
instance is created and then in a different callback about role of the
instance. But when the instance was deleted the driver was notified only
that the MRP instance is deleted and not also that the role is disabled.
This patch make sure that the driver is notified that the role is
changed to disabled before the MRP instance is deleted to have similar
callbacks with the creating of the instance. In this way it would
simplify the logic in the drivers.
