Florian Westphal 294304e4c5 netfilter: conntrack: udp: set stream timeout to 2 minutes
We have no explicit signal when a UDP stream has terminated, peers just
stop sending.

For suspected stream connections a timeout of two minutes is sane to keep
NAT mapping alive a while longer.

It matches tcp conntracks 'timewait' default timeout value.

Florian Westphal 4165079ba3 net: switch secpath to use skb extension infrastructure
Remove skb->sp and allocate secpath storage via extension
infrastructure.  This also reduces sk_buff by 8 bytes on x86_64.

Total size of allyesconfig kernel is reduced slightly, as there is
less inlined code (one conditional atomic op instead of two on
skb_clone).

No differences in throughput in following ipsec performance tests:
- transport mode with aes on 10GB link
- tunnel mode between two network namespaces with aes and null cipher

David Ahern 58956317c8 neighbor: Improve garbage collection
The existing garbage collection algorithm has a number of problems:

1. The gc algorithm will not evict PERMANENT entries as those entries
   are managed by userspace, yet the existing algorithm walks the entire
   hash table which means it always considers PERMANENT entries when
   looking for entries to evict. In some use cases (e.g., EVPN) there
   can be tens of thousands of PERMANENT entries leading to wasted
   CPU cycles when gc kicks in. As an example, with 32k permanent
   entries, neigh_alloc has been observed taking more than 4 msec per
   invocation.

2. Currently, when the number of neighbor entries hits gc_thresh2 and
   the last flush for the table was more than 5 seconds ago gc kicks in
   walks the entire hash table evicting *all* entries not in PERMANENT
   or REACHABLE state and not marked as externally learned. There is no
   discriminator on when the neigh entry was created or if it just moved
   from REACHABLE to another NUD_VALID state (e.g., NUD_STALE).

   It is possible for entries to be created or for established neighbor
   entries to be moved to STALE (e.g., an external node sends an ARP
   request) right before the 5 second window lapses:

        -----|---------x|----------|-----
            t-5         t         t+5

   If that happens those entries are evicted during gc causing unnecessary
   thrashing on neighbor entries and userspace caches trying to track them.

   Further, this contradicts the description of gc_thresh2 which says
   "Entries older than 5 seconds will be cleared".

   One workaround is to make gc_thresh2 == gc_thresh3 but that negates the
   whole point of having separate thresholds.

3. Clearing *all* neigh non-PERMANENT/REACHABLE/externally learned entries
   when gc_thresh2 is exceeded is over kill and contributes to trashing
   especially during startup.

This patch addresses these problems as follows:

1. Use of a separate list_head to track entries that can be garbage
   collected along with a separate counter. PERMANENT entries are not
   added to this list.

   The gc_thresh parameters are only compared to the new counter, not the
   total entries in the table. The forced_gc function is updated to only
   walk this new gc_list looking for entries to evict.

2. Entries are added to the list head at the tail and removed from the
   front.

3. Entries are only evicted if they were last updated more than 5 seconds
   ago, adhering to the original intent of gc_thresh2.

4. Forced gc is stopped once the number of gc_entries drops below
   gc_thresh2.

5. Since gc checks do not apply to PERMANENT entries, gc levels are skipped
   when allocating a new neighbor for a PERMANENT entry. By extension this
   means there are no explicit limits on the number of PERMANENT entries
   that can be created, but this is no different than FIB entries or FDB
   entries.

Shalom Toledo 846e980a87 devlink: Add 'fw_load_policy' generic parameter
Many drivers load the device's firmware image during the initialization
flow either from the flash or from the disk. Currently this option is not
controlled by the user and the driver decides from where to load the
firmware image.

'fw_load_policy' gives the ability to control this option which allows the
user to choose between different loading policies supported by the driver.

This parameter can be useful while testing and/or debugging the device. For
example, testing a firmware bug fix.

David Howells 7150ceaacb rxrpc: Fix life check
The life-checking function, which is used by kAFS to make sure that a call
is still live in the event of a pending signal, only samples the received
packet serial number counter; it doesn't actually provoke a change in the
counter, rather relying on the server to happen to give us a packet in the
time window.

Fix this by adding a function to force a ping to be transmitted.

kAFS then keeps track of whether there's been a stall, and if so, uses the
new function to ping the server, resetting the timeout to allow the reply
to come back.

If there's a stall, a ping and the call is *still* stalled in the same
place after another period, then the call will be aborted.

Eric Dumazet c73e5807e4 tcp: tsq: no longer use limit_output_bytes for paced flows
FQ pacing guarantees that paced packets queued by one flow do not
add head-of-line blocking for other flows.

After TCP GSO conversion, increasing limit_output_bytes to 1 MB is safe,
since this maps to 16 skbs at most in qdisc or device queues.
(or slightly more if some drivers lower {gso_max_segs|size})

We still can queue at most 1 ms worth of traffic (this can be scaled
by wifi drivers if they need to)

Tested:

# ethtool -c eth0 | egrep "tx-usecs:|tx-frames:" # 40 Gbit mlx4 NIC
tx-usecs: 16
tx-frames: 16
# tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root fq

Mike Manning 6897445fb1 net: provide a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept for raw socket lookup with VRFs
Add a sysctl raw_l3mdev_accept to control raw socket lookup in a manner
similar to use of tcp_l3mdev_accept for stream and of udp_l3mdev_accept
for datagram sockets. Have this default to enabled for reasons of
backwards compatibility. This is so as to specify the output device
with cmsg and IP_PKTINFO, but using a socket not bound to the
corresponding VRF. This allows e.g. older ping implementations to be
run with specifying the device but without executing it in the VRF.
If the option is disabled, packets received in a VRF context are only
handled by a raw socket bound to the VRF, and correspondingly packets
in the default VRF are only handled by a socket not bound to any VRF.

Robert Shearman 3c82a21f43 net: allow binding socket in a VRF when there's an unbound socket
Change the inet socket lookup to avoid packets arriving on a device
enslaved to an l3mdev from matching unbound sockets by removing the
wildcard for non sk_bound_dev_if and instead relying on check against
the secondary device index, which will be 0 when the input device is
not enslaved to an l3mdev and so match against an unbound socket and
not match when the input device is enslaved.

Change the socket binding to take the l3mdev into account to allow an
unbound socket to not conflict sockets bound to an l3mdev given the
datapath isolation now guaranteed.

Maciej W. Rozycki 61414f5ec9 FDDI: defza: Add support for DEC FDDIcontroller 700 TURBOchannel adapter
Add support for the DEC FDDIcontroller 700 (DEFZA), Digital Equipment
Corporation's first-generation FDDI network interface adapter, made for
TURBOchannel and based on a discrete version of what eventually became
Motorola's widely used CAMEL chipset.

The CAMEL chipset is present for example in the DEC FDDIcontroller
TURBOchannel, EISA and PCI adapters (DEFTA/DEFEA/DEFPA) that we support
with the `defxx' driver, however the host bus interface logic and the
firmware API are different in the DEFZA and hence a separate driver is
required.

There isn't much to say about the driver except that it works, but there
is one peculiarity to mention.  The adapter implements two Tx/Rx queue
pairs.

Of these one pair is the usual network Tx/Rx queue pair, in this case
used by the adapter to exchange frames with the ring, via the RMC (Ring
Memory Controller) chip.  The Tx queue is handled directly by the RMC
chip and resides in onboard packet memory.  The Rx queue is maintained
via DMA in host memory by adapter's firmware copying received data
stored by the RMC in onboard packet memory.

The other pair is used to communicate SMT frames with adapter's
firmware.  Any SMT frame received from the RMC via the Rx queue must be
queued back by the driver to the SMT Rx queue for the firmware to
process.  Similarly the firmware uses the SMT Tx queue to supply the
driver with SMT frames that must be queued back to the Tx queue for the
RMC to send to the ring.

This solution was chosen because the designers ran out of PCB space and
could not squeeze in more logic onto the board that would be required to
handle this SMT frame traffic without the need to involve the driver, as
with the later DEFTA/DEFEA/DEFPA adapters.

Finally the driver does some Frame Control byte decoding, so to avoid
magic numbers some macros are added to <linux/if_fddi.h>.

David Ahern 7c6bb7d2fa net/ipv6: Add knob to skip DELROUTE message on device down
Another difference between IPv4 and IPv6 is the generation of RTM_DELROUTE
notifications when a device is taken down (admin down) or deleted. IPv4
does not generate a message for routes evicted by the down or delete;
IPv6 does. A NOS at scale really needs to avoid these messages and have
IPv4 and IPv6 behave similarly, relying on userspace to handle link
notifications and evict the routes.

At this point existing user behavior needs to be preserved. Since
notifications are a global action (not per app) the only way to preserve
existing behavior and allow the messages to be skipped is to add a new
sysctl (net/ipv6/route/skip_notify_on_dev_down) which can be set to
disable the notificatioons.

IPv6 route code already supports the option to skip the message (it is
used for multipath routes for example). Besides the new sysctl we need
to pass the skip_notify setting through the generic fib6_clean and
fib6_walk functions to fib6_clean_node and to set skip_notify on calls
to __ip_del_rt for the addrconf_ifdown path.

Alexei Starovoitov says:

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2018-10-08

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.

The main changes are:

1) sk_lookup_[tcp|udp] and sk_release helpers from Joe Stringer which allow
BPF programs to perform lookups for sockets in a network namespace. This would
allow programs to determine early on in processing whether the stack is
expecting to receive the packet, and perform some action (eg drop,
forward somewhere) based on this information.

2) per-cpu cgroup local storage from Roman Gushchin.
Per-cpu cgroup local storage is very similar to simple cgroup storage
except all the data is per-cpu. The main goal of per-cpu variant is to
implement super fast counters (e.g. packet counters), which don't require
neither lookups, neither atomic operations in a fast path.
The example of these hybrid counters is in selftests/bpf/netcnt_prog.c

3) allow HW offload of programs with BPF-to-BPF function calls from Quentin Monnet

4) support more than 64-byte key/value in HW offloaded BPF maps from Jakub Kicinski

5) rename of libbpf interfaces from Andrey Ignatov.
libbpf is maturing as a library and should follow good practices in
library design and implementation to play well with other libraries.
This patch set brings consistent naming convention to global symbols.

6) relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause from Alexei Starovoitov
to let Apache2 projects use libbpf

7) various AF_XDP fixes from Björn and Magnus

David Howells e908bcf4f1 rxrpc: Allow the reply time to be obtained on a client call
Allow the epoch value to be queried on a server connection.  This is in the
rxrpc header of every packet for use in routing and is derived from the
client's state.  It's also not supposed to change unless the client gets
restarted.

AFS can make use of this information to deduce whether a fileserver has
been restarted because the fileserver makes client calls to the filesystem
driver's cache manager to send notifications (ie. callback breaks) about
conflicting changes from other clients.  These convey the fileserver's own
epoch value back to the filesystem.
