In commit c637c1035534867b85b78b453c38c495b58e2c5a
("tipc: resolve race problem at unicast message reception") we
introduced a new mechanism for delivering buffers upwards from link
to socket layer.
That code contains a bug in how we handle the new link input queue
during failover. When a link is reset, some of its users may be blocked
because of congestion, and in order to resolve this, we add any pending
wakeup pseudo messages to the link's input queue, and deliver them to
the socket. This misses the case where the other, remaining link also
may have congested users. Currently, the owner node's reference to the
remaining link's input queue is unconditionally overwritten by the
reset link's input queue. This has the effect that wakeup events from
the remaining link may be unduely delayed (but not lost) for a
potentially long period.
We fix this by adding the pending events from the reset link to the
input queue that is currently referenced by the node, whichever one
it is.
This commit should be applied to both net and net-next.

When an interface is deleted from a net namespace the ifindex in the
corresponding entries in PF_PACKET sockets' mclists becomes stale.
This can create inconsistencies if later an interface with the same ifindex
is moved from a different namespace (not that unlikely since ifindexes are
per-namespace).
In particular we saw problems with dev->promiscuity, resulting
in "promiscuity touches roof, set promiscuity failed. promiscuity
feature of device might be broken" warnings and EOVERFLOW failures of
setsockopt(PACKET_ADD_MEMBERSHIP).
This patch deletes the mclist entries for interfaces that are deleted.
Since this now causes setsockopt(PACKET_DROP_MEMBERSHIP) to fail with
EADDRNOTAVAIL if called after the interface is deleted, also make
packet_mc_drop not fail.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:
====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. Basically, improvements for the packet rejection infrastructure,
deprecation of CLUSTERIP, cleanups for nf_tables and some untangling for
br_netfilter. More specifically they are:
1) Send packet to reset flow if checksum is valid, from Florian Westphal.
2) Fix nf_tables reject bridge from the input chain, also from Florian.
3) Deprecate the CLUSTERIP target, the cluster match supersedes it in
functionality and it's known to have problems.
4) A couple of cleanups for nf_tables rule tracing infrastructure, from
Patrick McHardy.
5) Another cleanup to place transaction declarations at the bottom of
nf_tables.h, also from Patrick.
6) Consolidate Kconfig dependencies wrt. NF_TABLES.
7) Limit table names to 32 bytes in nf_tables.
8) mac header copying in bridge netfilter is already required when
calling ip_fragment(), from Florian Westphal.
9) move nf_bridge_update_protocol() to br_netfilter.c, also from
Florian.
10) Small refactor in br_netfilter in the transmission path, again from
Florian.
11) Move br_nf_pre_routing_finish_bridge_slow() to br_netfilter.

Commit 9bbb4ecc6819 ("tipc: standardize recvmsg routine") changed
the sleep/wakeup behaviour for sockets entering recv() or accept().
In this process the order of reporting -EAGAIN/-EINTR was reversed.
This caused problems with wrong errno being reported back if the
timeout expires. The same problem happens if the socket is
nonblocking and recv()/accept() is called when the process have
pending signals. If there is no pending data read or connections to
accept, -EINTR will be returned instead of -EAGAIN.

Kernel automatically creates a tp for each
(kind, protocol, priority) tuple, which has handle 0,
when we add a new filter, but it still is left there
after we remove our own, unless we don't specify the
handle (literally means all the filters under
the tuple). For example this one is left:
# tc filter show dev eth0
filter parent 8001: protocol arp pref 49152 basic
The user-space is hard to clean up these for kernel
because filters like u32 are organized in a complex way.
So kernel is responsible to remove it after all filters
are gone. Each type of filter has its own way to
store the filters, so each type has to provide its
way to check if all filters are gone.

When reading from the error queue, msg_name and msg_control are only
populated for some errors. A new exception for empty timestamp skbs
added a false positive on icmp errors without payload.
`traceroute -M udpconn` only displayed gateways that return payload
with the icmp error: the embedded network headers are pulled before
sock_queue_err_skb, leaving an skb with skb->len == 0 otherwise.
Fix this regression by refining when msg_name and msg_control
branches are taken. The solutions for the two fields are independent.
msg_name only makes sense for errors that configure serr->port and
serr->addr_offset. Test the first instead of skb->len. This also fixes
another issue. saddr could hold the wrong data, as serr->addr_offset
is not initialized in some code paths, pointing to the start of the
network header. It is only valid when serr->port is set (non-zero).
msg_control support differs between IPv4 and IPv6. IPv4 only honors
requests for ICMP and timestamps with SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_CMSG. The
skb->len test can simply be removed, because skb->dev is also tested
and never true for empty skbs. IPv6 honors requests for all errors
aside from local errors and timestamps on empty skbs.
In both cases, make the policy more explicit by moving this logic to
a new function that decides whether to process msg_control and that
optionally prepares the necessary fields in skb->cb[]. After this
change, the IPv4 and IPv6 paths are more similar.
The last case is rxrpc. Here, simply refine to only match timestamps.

While compiling the following warning occurs:
WARNING: net/built-in.o(.init.text+0x602c): Section mismatch in
reference from the function bt_init() to the function
.exit.text:sco_exit()
The function __init bt_init() references
a function __exit sco_exit().
This is often seen when error handling in the init function
uses functionality in the exit path.
The fix is often to remove the __exit annotation of
sco_exit() so it may be used outside an exit section.
Since commit 6d785aa345f525e1fdf098b7c590168f0b00f3f1 ("Bluetooth:
Convert mgmt to use HCI chan registration API") the function "sco_exit"
is used inside of function "bt_init". The suggested solution by remove

Some drivers use copybreak to copy tiny frames into smaller skb,
and this smaller skb might not have skb->head_frag set for various
reasons.
skb_gro_receive() currently doesn't allow to aggregate the smaller skb
into the previous GRO packet if this GRO packet has at least 2 MSS in
it.
Following workload easily demonstrates the problem.
netperf -t TCP_RR -H target -- -r 3000,3000
(tcpdump shows one GRO packet with 2 MSS, plus one additional packet of
104 bytes that should have been appended.)
It turns out that we can remove code from skb_gro_receive(), because
commit 8a29111c7ca6 ("net: gro: allow to build full sized skb") and its
followups removed the assumption that a GRO packet with a frag_list had
to have an empty head.
Removing this code allows the aggregation of the last (incomplete) frame
in some RPC workloads. Note that tcp_gro_receive() already takes care of
forcing a flush if necessary, including this case.
If we want to avoid using frag_list in the first place (in forwarding
workloads for example, as the outgoing NIC is generally not able to cope
with skbs having a frag_list), we need to address this separately.

In addition, introduce a sysctl_tcp_probe_threshold

Other users users of the neighbour table use neigh->output as the method
to decided when and which link-layer header to place on a packet.
DECnet has been using neigh->output to decide which DECnet headers to
place on a packet depending which neighbour the packet is destined for.
The DECnet usage isn't totally wrong but it can run into problems if the
neighbour output function is run for a second time as the teql driver
and the bridge netfilter code can do.
Therefore to avoid pathologic problems later down the line and make the
neighbour code easier to understand by refactoring the decnet output
code to only use a neighbour method to add a link layer header to a
packet.
This is done by moving the neigbhour operations lookup from
dn_to_neigh_output to dn_neigh_output_packet.

commands) to mgmt_pending_cmd, so that it can be moved to a more generic
place and be used also by other modules using other HCI channels.

This patch renames the cmd_complete() function to mgmt_cmd_complete() in
preparation of making it a generic helper for other modules to use too.

In order to completely generalize the mgmt command handling we need to
move away command-specific information from mgmt_control() into the
actual command table. This patch adds a new 'flags' field to the handler
entries which can now contain the following command specific
information:
- Command takes variable length parameters
- Command doesn't target any specific HCI device
- Command can be sent when the HCI device is unconfigured
After this the mgmt_control() function is completely generic and can
potentially be reused by new HCI channels.

This patch converts the existing mgmt code to use the newly introduced
generic API for registering HCI channels with mgmt-like semantics.

This patch adds an API for registering HCI channels with mgmt-like
semantics. For now the only user will be HCI_CHANNEL_CONTROL, but e.g.
6lowpan is intended to use this as well in the future.

Currently it is not possible to determine if the static address is used
by the controller. It is also not possible to determine if using a
static on a dual-mode controller with disabled BR/EDR is possible or
not.
To address this issue, introduce a new setting called static-address. If
support for this setting is signaled that means that the kernel supports
using static addresses. And if used on dual-mode controllers with BR/EDR
disabled it means that a configured static address can be used.
In addition utilize the same setting for the list of current active
settings that indicates if a static address is configured and if that
address will be actually used.
With this in mind the existing Set Static Address management command
has been extended to return the current settings. That way the caller
of that command can easily determine if the programmed address will
be used or if extra steps are required.
