This patch extends NTF_EXT_LEARNED support to the neighbour system.
Example use-case: An Ethernet VPN implementation (eg in FRR routing suite)
can use this flag to add dynamic reachable external neigh entires
learned via control plane. The use of neigh NTF_EXT_LEARNED in this
patch is consistent with its use with bridge and vxlan fdb entries.

ECMP (equal-cost multipath) hashes are typically computed on the packets'
5-tuple(src IP, dst IP, src port, dst port, L4 proto).
For encapsulated packets, the L4 data is not readily available and ECMP
hashing will often revert to (src IP, dst IP). This will lead to traffic
polarization on a single ECMP path, causing congestion and waste of network
capacity.
In IPv6, the 20-bit flow label field is also used as part of the ECMP hash.
In the lack of L4 data, the hashing will be on (src IP, dst IP, flow
label). Having a non-zero flow label is thus important for proper traffic
load balancing when L4 data is unavailable (i.e., when packets are
encapsulated).
Currently, the seg6_do_srh_encap() function extracts the original packet's
flow label and set it as the outer IPv6 flow label. There are two issues
with this behaviour:
a) There is no guarantee that the inner flow label is set by the source.
b) If the original packet is not IPv6, the flow label will be set to
zero (e.g., IPv4 or L2 encap).
This patch adds a function, named seg6_make_flowlabel(), that computes a
flow label from a given skb. It supports IPv6, IPv4 and L2 payloads, and
leverages the per namespace 'seg6_flowlabel" sysctl value.
The currently support behaviours are as follows:
-1 set flowlabel to zero.
0 copy flowlabel from Inner paceket in case of Inner IPv6
(Set flowlabel to 0 in case IPv4/L2)
1 Compute the flowlabel using seg6_make_flowlabel()
This patch has been tested for IPv6, IPv4, and L2 traffic.

This reverts commit <c6849a3ac17e> ("net: init sk_cookie for inet socket")
Per discussion with Eric, when update sock_net(sk)->cookie_gen, the
whole cache cache line will be invalidated, as this cache line is shared
with all cpus, that may cause great performace hit.
Bellow is the data form Eric.
"Performance is reduced from ~5 Mpps to ~3.8 Mpps with 16 RX queues on
my host" when running synflood test.
Have to revert it to prevent from cache line false sharing.

Interrupt moderation for TX traffic requires different profiles than RX
interrupt moderation. The main goal here is to reduce interrupt rate and
allow better payload aggregation by keeping SKBs in the TX queue a bit
longer. Ping-pong behavior would get a profile with a short timer, so
latency wouldn't increase for these scenarios. There might be a slight
degradation in bandwidth for single stream with large message sizes, since
net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes is limiting the allowed TX traffic, but
with many streams performance is always improved.

With sk_cookie we can identify a socket, that is very helpful for
traceing and statistic, i.e. tcp tracepiont and ebpf.
So we'd better init it by default for inet socket.
When using it, we just need call atomic64_read(&sk->sk_cookie).

tcp_rcv_space_adjust is called every time data is copied to user space,
introducing a tcp tracepoint for which could show us when the packet is
copied to user.
When a tcp packet arrives, tcp_rcv_established() will be called and with
the existed tracepoint tcp_probe we could get the time when this packet
arrives.
Then this packet will be copied to user, and tcp_rcv_space_adjust will
be called and with this new introduced tracepoint we could get the time
when this packet is copied to user.
With these two tracepoints, we could figure out whether the user program
processes this packet immediately or there's latency.
Hence in the printk message, sk_cookie is printed as a key to relate
tcp_rcv_space_adjust with tcp_probe.
Maybe we could export sockfd in this new tracepoint as well, then we
could relate this new tracepoint with epoll/read/recv* tracepoints, and
finally that could show us the whole lifespan of this packet. But we
could also implement that with pid as these functions are executed in
process context.

1) Fix a deadlock between mm->mmap_sem and bpf_event_mutex when
one task is detaching a BPF prog via perf_event_detach_bpf_prog()

the latter we move the copy_to_user() out of the bpf_event_mutex
lock to fix it, from Yonghong.
2) Fix test_sock and test_sock_addr.sh failures. The former was

The connection timers of an llc sock could be still flying
after we delete them in llc_sk_free(), and even possibly
after we free the sock. We could just wait synchronously
here in case of troubles.
Note, I leave other call paths as they are, since they may
not have to wait, at least we can change them to synchronously
when needed.
Also, move the code to net/llc/llc_conn.c, which is apparently
a better place.

because the return error code is already telling the caller what's
wrong.

When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info
is set to the fib entry. The 'from' reference is used most notably for
cookie checking - making sure stale dst entries are updated if the
fib entry is changed.
When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing
the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to
happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely
manner.
There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
this race using rcu on from.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-04-21
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Initial work on BPF Type Format (BTF) is added, which is a meta
data format which describes the data types of BPF programs / maps.
BTF has its roots from CTF (Compact C-Type format) with a number
of changes to it. First use case is to provide a generic pretty
print capability for BPF maps inspection, later work will also
add BTF to bpftool. pahole support to convert dwarf to BTF will
be upstreamed as well (https://github.com/iamkafai/pahole/tree/btf),
from Martin.
2) Add a new xdp_bpf_adjust_tail() BPF helper for XDP that allows
for changing the data_end pointer. Only shrinking is currently
supported which helps for crafting ICMP control messages. Minor
changes in drivers have been added where needed so they recalc
the packet's length also when data_end was adjusted, from Nikita.
3) Improve bpftool to make it easier to feed hex bytes via cmdline
for map operations, from Quentin.
4) Add support for various missing BPF prog types and attach types
that have been added to kernel recently but neither to bpftool
nor libbpf yet. Doc and bash completion updates have been added
as well for bpftool, from Andrey.
5) Proper fix for avoiding to leak info stored in frame data on page
reuse for the two bpf_xdp_adjust_{head,meta} helpers by disallowing
to move the pointers into struct xdp_frame area, from Jesper.
6) Follow-up compile fix from BTF in order to include stdbool.h in
libbpf, from Björn.
7) Few fixes in BPF sample code, that is, a typo on the netdevice
in a comment and fixup proper dump of XDP action code in the
tracepoint exception, from Wang and Jesper.

lock_page_memcg()/unlock_page_memcg() use spin_lock_irqsave/restore() if
the page's memcg is undergoing move accounting, which occurs when a
process leaves its memcg for a new one that has
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate set.
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin,end() use spin_lock_irq/spin_unlock_irq() if
the given inode is switching writeback domains. Switches occur when
enough writes are issued from a new domain.
This existing pattern is thus suspicious:
lock_page_memcg(page);
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin(inode, &locked);
...
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end(inode, locked);
unlock_page_memcg(page);
If both inode switch and process memcg migration are both in-flight then
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end() will unconditionally enable interrupts while
still holding the lock_page_memcg() irq spinlock. This suggests the
possibility of deadlock if an interrupt occurs before unlock_page_memcg().
truncate
__cancel_dirty_page
lock_page_memcg
unlocked_inode_to_wb_begin
unlocked_inode_to_wb_end
<interrupts mistakenly enabled>
<interrupt>
end_page_writeback
test_clear_page_writeback
lock_page_memcg
<deadlock>
unlock_page_memcg
Due to configuration limitations this deadlock is not currently possible
because we don't mix cgroup writeback (a cgroupv2 feature) and
memory.move_charge_at_immigrate (a cgroupv1 feature).
If the kernel is hacked to always claim inode switching and memcg
moving_account, then this script triggers lockup in less than a minute:
cd /mnt/cgroup/memory
mkdir a b
echo 1 > a/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
echo 1 > b/memory.move_charge_at_immigrate
(
echo $BASHPID > a/cgroup.procs
while true; do
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/big bs=1M count=256
done
) &
while true; do
sync
done &
sleep 1h &
SLEEP=$!
while true; do
echo $SLEEP > a/cgroup.procs
echo $SLEEP > b/cgroup.procs
done
The deadlock does not seem possible, so it's debatable if there's any
reason to modify the kernel. I suggest we should to prevent future
surprises. And Wang Long said "this deadlock occurs three times in our
environment", so there's more reason to apply this, even to stable.
Stable 4.4 has minor conflicts applying this patch. For a clean 4.4 patch

One of the classes of kernel stack content leaks[1] is exposing the
contents of prior heap or stack contents when a new process stack is
allocated. Normally, those stacks are not zeroed, and the old contents
remain in place. In the face of stack content exposure flaws, those
contents can leak to userspace.
Fixing this will make the kernel no longer vulnerable to these flaws, as
the stack will be wiped each time a stack is assigned to a new process.
There's not a meaningful change in runtime performance; it almost looks
like it provides a benefit.
Performing back-to-back kernel builds before:
Run times: 157.86 157.09 158.90 160.94 160.80
Mean: 159.12
Std Dev: 1.54
and after:
Run times: 159.31 157.34 156.71 158.15 160.81
Mean: 158.46
Std Dev: 1.46
Instead of making this a build or runtime config, Andy Lutomirski
recommended this just be enabled by default.
[1] A noisy search for many kinds of stack content leaks can be seen here:
https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvekey.cgi?keyword=linux+kernel+stack+leak
I did some more with perf and cycle counts on running 100,000 execs of
/bin/true.
before:
Cycles: 218858861551 218853036130 214727610969 227656844122 224980542841
Mean: 221015379122.60
Std Dev: 4662486552.47
after:
Cycles: 213868945060 213119275204 211820169456 224426673259 225489986348
Mean: 217745009865.40
Std Dev: 5935559279.99
It continues to look like it's faster, though the deviation is rather
wide, but I'm not sure what I could do that would be less noisy. I'm
open to ideas!

Add support for DT property "microchip,led-modes", a vector of zero
to four cells (u32s) in the range 0-15, each of which sets the mode
for one of the LEDs. Some possible values are:
0=link/activity 1=link1000/activity
2=link100/activity 3=link10/activity
4=link100/1000/activity 5=link10/1000/activity
6=link10/100/activity 14=off 15=on
These values are given symbolic constants in a dt-bindings header.
Also use the presence of the DT property to indicate that the
LEDs should be enabled - necessary in the event that no valid OTP
or EEPROM is available.

There may be a need for VF driver to request PF to explicitly update its
bulletin with a MAC address.
e.g. When user assigns a MAC address to VF while VF is still down,
and PF's bulletin board contains different MAC address, in this case,
when VF's interface is brought up, it gets loaded with MAC address from
bulletin board which is not desirable.
To handle this corner case, we need a new TLV to request PF to update
its bulletin board with suggested MAC.
This request will be honored only for trusted VFs.

In previous commit, we changed the default emulated MTU for UDP bearers
to 14k.
This commit adds the functionality to set/change the default value
by configuring new MTU for UDP media. UDP bearer(s) have to be disabled
and enabled back for the new MTU to take effect.

Currently, all bearers are configured with MTU value same as the
underlying L2 device. However, in case of bearers with media type
UDP, higher throughput is possible with a fixed and higher emulated
MTU value than adapting to the underlying L2 MTU.
In this commit, we introduce a parameter mtu in struct tipc_media
and a default value is set for UDP. A default value of 14k
was determined by experimentation and found to have a higher throughput
than 16k. MTU for UDP bearers are assigned the above set value of
media MTU.
