CRC32C has to be preferred to CRC16 because of its possible

Marek Lindner ef26157747 batman-adv: tvlv - basic infrastructure
The goal is to provide the infrastructure for sending, receiving and
parsing information 'containers' while preserving backward
compatibility. TVLV (based on the commonly known Type Length Value
technique) was chosen as the format for those containers. Even if a
node does not know the tvlv type of a certain container it can simply
skip the current container and proceed with the next. Past experience
has shown features evolve over time, so a 'version' field was added
right from the start to allow differentiating between feature
variants - hence the name: T(ype) V(ersion) L(ength) V(alue).

This patch introduces the basic TVLV infrastructure:
 * register / unregister tvlv containers to be sent with each OGM
   (on primary interfaces only)
 * register / unregister callback handlers to be called upon
   finding the corresponding tvlv type in a tvlv buffer
 * unicast tvlv send / receive API calls

Eric Dumazet efe4208f47 ipv6: make lookups simpler and faster
TCP listener refactoring, part 4 :

To speed up inet lookups, we moved IPv4 addresses from inet to struct
sock_common

Now is time to do the same for IPv6, because it permits us to have fast
lookups for all kind of sockets, including upcoming SYN_RECV.

Getting IPv6 addresses in TCP lookups currently requires two extra cache
lines, plus a dereference (and memory stall).

inet6_sk(sk) does the dereference of inet_sk(__sk)->pinet6

This patch is way bigger than its IPv4 counter part, because for IPv4,
we could add aliases (inet_daddr, inet_rcv_saddr), while on IPv6,
it's not doable easily.

inet6_sk(sk)->daddr becomes sk->sk_v6_daddr
inet6_sk(sk)->rcv_saddr becomes sk->sk_v6_rcv_saddr

And timewait socket also have tw->tw_v6_daddr & tw->tw_v6_rcv_saddr
at the same offset.

We get rid of INET6_TW_MATCH() as INET6_MATCH() is now the generic
macro.

Eric Dumazet 05dbc7b594 tcp/dccp: remove twchain
TCP listener refactoring, part 3 :

Our goal is to hash SYN_RECV sockets into main ehash for fast lookup,
and parallel SYN processing.

Current inet_ehash_bucket contains two chains, one for ESTABLISH (and
friend states) sockets, another for TIME_WAIT sockets only.

As the hash table is sized to get at most one socket per bucket, it
makes little sense to have separate twchain, as it makes the lookup
slightly more complicated, and doubles hash table memory usage.

If we make sure all socket types have the lookup keys at the same
offsets, we can use a generic and faster lookup. It turns out TIME_WAIT
and ESTABLISHED sockets already have common lookup fields for IPv4.

[ INET_TW_MATCH() is no longer needed ]

I'll provide a follow-up to factorize IPv6 lookup as well, to remove
INET6_TW_MATCH()

This way, SYN_RECV pseudo sockets will be supported the same.

A new sock_gen_put() helper is added, doing either a sock_put() or
inet_twsk_put() [ and will support SYN_RECV later ].

Note this helper should only be called in real slow path, when rcu
lookup found a socket that was moved to another identity (freed/reused
immediately), but could eventually be used in other contexts, like
sock_edemux()

Before patch :

dmesg | grep "TCP established"

TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 11, 8388608 bytes)

After patch :

TCP established hash table entries: 524288 (order: 10, 4194304 bytes)

Oussama Ghorbel 0e719e3a53 ipv6: Fix the upper MTU limit in GRE tunnel
Unlike ipv4, the struct member hlen holds the length of the GRE and ipv6
headers. This length is also counted in dev->hard_header_len.
Perhaps, it's more clean to modify the hlen to count only the GRE header
without ipv6 header as the variable name suggest, but the simple way to fix
this without regression risk is simply modify the calculation of the limit
in ip6gre_tunnel_change_mtu function.

Shawn Bohrer 421b3885bf udp: ipv4: Add udp early demux
The removal of the routing cache introduced a performance regression for
some UDP workloads since a dst lookup must be done for each packet.
This change caches the dst per socket in a similar manner to what we do
for TCP by implementing early_demux.

For UDP multicast we can only cache the dst if there is only one
receiving socket on the host.  Since caching only works when there is
one receiving socket we do the multicast socket lookup using RCU.

For UDP unicast we only demux sockets with an exact match in order to
not break forwarding setups.  Additionally since the hash chains may be
long we only check the first socket to see if it is a match and not
waste extra time searching the whole chain when we might not find an
exact match.

UDP sockets can receive packets from multiple endpoints and thus may be
received on multiple receive queues.  Since packets packets can arrive
on multiple receive queues we should not mark the napi_id for all

This additionally enables busy read/poll for UDP multicast packets as
long as the socket is connected by moving the check into
__udp_queue_rcv_skb().

Veaceslav Falico 4996b9098d bonding: ensure that TLB mode's active slave has correct mac filter
Currently, in TLB mode we change mac addresses only by memcpy-ing the to
net_device->dev_addr, without actually setting them via
dev_set_mac_address(). This permits us to receive all the traffic always on
one mac address.

However, in case the interface flips, some drivers might enforce the
mac filtering for its FW/HW based on current ->dev_addr, and thus we won't
be able to receive traffic on that interface, in case it will be selected
as active in TLB mode.

Fix it by setting the mac address forcefully on every new active slave that
we select in TLB mode.

David S. Miller 66e358a847 Merge branch 'mrf24j40'
Alan Ott says:

====================
Fix race conditions in mrf24j40 interrupts

After testing with the betas of this patchset, it's been rebased and is
ready for inclusion.

David Hauweele noticed that the mrf24j40 would hang arbitrarily after some
period of heavy traffic.  Two race conditions were discovered, and the
driver was changed to use threaded interrupts, since the enable/disable of
interrupts in the driver has recently been a lighning rod whenever issues
arise related to interrupts (costing engineering time), and since threaded
interrupts are the right way to do it.

Alan Ott 40afbb6573 mrf24j40: Use level-triggered interrupts
The mrf24j40 generates level interrupts. There are rare cases where it
appears that the interrupt line never gets de-asserted between interrupts,
causing interrupts to be lost, and causing a hung device from the driver's
perspective.  Switching the driver to interpret these interrupts as
level-triggered fixes this issue.

Alan Ott 9757f1d2e0 mrf24j40: Move INIT_COMPLETION() to before packet transmission
This avoids a race condition where complete(tx_complete) could be called
before tx_complete is initialized.

Alan Ott says:

====================
Alexander Aring suggested that devices desired to be linked to 6lowpan
be checked for actually being of type IEEE802154, since IEEE802154 devices
are all that are supported by 6lowpan at present.
