Bjørn Mork 3e515665a7 net: cdc_ncm: remove redundant "intf" field
This is always a duplicate of the "control" field. It causes
confusion wrt intf_data updates and cleanups.

Bjørn Mork 20572226fc net: cdc_ncm: simplify and optimize frame padding
We can avoid the costly division for the common case where
we pad the frame to tx_max size as long as we ensure that
tx_max is either the device specified dwNtbOutMaxSize or not
a multiplum of wMaxPacketSize.

Using the preconverted 'maxpacket' field avoids converting
wMaxPacketSize to CPU endianness for every transmitted frame

And since we only will hit the one byte padding rule for short
frames, we can drop testing the skb for tailroom.

The change means that tx_max now represents the real maximum
skb size, enabling us to allocate the correct size instead of
always making room for one extra byte.

Bjørn Mork c1a2e95435 net: cdc_mbim: change the default to send ZLPs
A number of devices in the wild have turned out to require ZLPs.
Even if this is a spec violation, our priority is to make any
device work as good as possible. Devices needing ZLPs will fail
to receive any full sized frame we send. On the other hand,
devices which do not need the ZLP will still work if we send
them.

This gives us no other option than sending ZLPs by default.

This will prevent devices conforming to the spec from making the
optimizations which are possible without ZLPs.  Adding known
such devices to a whitelist, to avoid the possible negative
impact of the new spec violating default.

Bjørn Mork 5b8f15f78e net: cdc_mbim: handle IPv6 Neigbor Solicitations
MBIM is a point-to-point protocol transporting raw IP packets
with no L2 headers. Only IPv4 and IPv6 are supported. ARP in
particular is not, which is quite logical given the lack of
L2 headers.

The driver still emulates an ethernet interface, dropping all
unsupported protocols, and avoiding neigbour resolving by
setting the IFF_NOARP flag.

The MBIM specification does not explicitly forbid IPv6 Neighbor
Discovery, and it seems the other OS support will respond to
Neighbor Solicitations on MBIM links. There are therefore
buggy devices out there, which despite the pointlessness, still
require Neighbor Discovery for IPv6 over MBIM.

This is incompatible with the IFF_NOARP flag which disables
both ARP and ND.  We cannot support ARP in any case, so we
have to keep that flag. This patch implements a workaround
for the buggy devices, letting the driver respond directly
to Neighbor Solicitations from the device.

This is not optimal, but will have minimal effect on any sane
device.

David S. Miller 90df06b8a2 Merge branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next
Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
This series contains updates to e1000, igb, ixgbe and ixgbevf.

Hong Zhiguo provides a fix for e1000 where tx_ring and adapter->tx_ring
are already of type "struct e1000_tx_ring" so no need to divide by
e1000_tx_ring size in the idx calculation.

Emil provides a fix for ixgbevf to remove a redundant workaround related
to header split and a fix for ixgbe to resolve an issue where the MTA table
can be cleared when the interface is reset while in promisc mode.

Todd provides a fix for igb to prevent ethtool from writing to the iNVM
in i210/i211 devices.  This issue was reported by Marek Vasut <marex@denx.de>.

Anton Blanchard provides a fix for ixgbe to reduce memory consumption
with larger page sizes, seen on PPC.

Don provides a cleanup in ixgbe to replace the IXGBE_DESC_UNUSED macro with
the inline function ixgbevf_desc_unused() to make the logic a bit more
readable.

Anton Blanchard fb44519de9 ixgbe: Reduce memory consumption with larger page sizes
The ixgbe driver allocates pages for its receive rings. It currently
uses 512 pages, regardless of page size. During receive handling it
adds the unused part of the page back into the rx ring, avoiding the
need for a new allocation.

On a ppc64 box with 64 threads and 64kB pages, we end up with
512 entries * 64 rx queues * 64kB = 2GB memory used. Even more of a
concern is that we use up 2GB of IOMMU space in order to map all this
memory.

The driver makes a number of decisions based on if PAGE_SIZE is less
than 8kB, so use this as the breakpoint and only allocate 128 entries
on 8kB or larger page sizes.

Alexandre Rames 2acdb92e85 sfc: Fix DMA unmapping issue with firmware assisted TSO
When using firmware assisted TSO, we use a single DMA mapping for
the linear area of a TSO skb.

We still have to segment the super-packet and insert a descriptor
containing the original headers before each segment of payload, so we
can unmap the linear area only after the last segment is completed.
The unmapping information for the linear area is therefore associated
with the last header descriptor.

We calculate the DMA address to unmap from using the map length and
the invariant that the end of the DMA mapping matches the end of
the data referenced by the last descriptor.  But this invariant is
broken when there is TCP payload in the linear area.

Fix this by adding and using an explicit dma_offset field.

This series contains updates to vxlan, net, ixgbe, ixgbevf, and i40e.

Joseph provides a single patch against vxlan which removes the burden

Jacob provides majority of the patches, with patches against net, ixgbe
and ixgbevf.  His net patch adds might_sleep() call to napi_disable so
that every use of napi_disable during atomic context will be visible.
Then Jacob provides a patch to fix qv_lock_napi call in
ixgbe_napi_disable_all.  The other ixgbe patches cleanup
ixgbe_check_minimum_link function to correctly show that there are some
minor loss of encoding, even though we don't calculate it and remove
unnecessary duplication of PCIe bandwidth display.  Lastly, Jacob
provides 4 patches against ixgbevf to add ixgbevf_rx_skb in line with
how ixgbe handles the variations on how packets can be received, adds
support in order to track how many packets were cleaned during busy poll
as part of the extended statistics.

Wei Yongjun provides a fix for i40e to return -ENOMEN in the memory
allocation error handling case instead of returning 0, as done
elsewhere in this function.

ixgbe_qv_lock_napi loop shouldn't have to mdelay. This patch adds an
ixgbe_qv_disable along with a new IXGBE_QV_STATE_DISABLED bit, which it uses to
indicate to the poll and napi routines that the q_vector has been disabled. Now
the ixgbe_napi_disable_all function will wait until all pending work has been
finished and prevent any future work from being started.

Michael Dalton 2613af0ed1 virtio_net: migrate mergeable rx buffers to page frag allocators
The virtio_net driver's mergeable receive buffer allocator
uses 4KB packet buffers. For MTU-sized traffic, SKB truesize
is > 4KB but only ~1500 bytes of the buffer is used to store
packet data, reducing the effective TCP window size
substantially. This patch addresses the performance concerns
with mergeable receive buffers by allocating MTU-sized packet
buffers using page frag allocators. If more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS
buffers are needed, the SKB frag_list is used.

Eric Dumazet 82d8189826 veth: extend features to support tunneling
While investigating on a recent vxlan regression, I found veth
was using a zero features set for vxlan tunnels.

We have to segment GSO frames, copy the payload, and do the checksum.

This patch brings a ~200% performance increase

We probably have to add hw_enc_features support
on other virtual devices.

David S. Miller 1f2cd845d3 Revert "Merge branch 'bonding_monitor_locking'"
This reverts commit 4d961a101e, reversing
changes made to a00f6fcc7d.

Revert bond locking changes, they cause regressions and Veaceslav Falico
doesn't like how the commit messages were done at all.

Sathya Perla 6384a4d0dc be2net: add support for ndo_busy_poll
Includes:
- ndo_busy_poll implementation
- Locking between napi and busy_poll
- Fix rx_post_starvation (replenish rx-queues in out-of-mememory scenario)
  logic to accomodate busy_poll.

v2 changes:
[Eric D.'s comment] call alloc_pages() with GFP_ATOMIC even in ndo_busy_poll
context as it is not allowed to sleep.

dingtianhong 5cc172c6de bonding: remove bond read lock for bond_3ad_state_machine_handler()
The bond slave list may change when the monitor is running, the slave list is no longer
protected by bond->lock, only protected by rtnl lock(), so we have 3 ways to modify it:
1.add bond_master_upper_dev_link() and bond_upper_dev_unlink() in bond->lock, but it is unsafe
to call call_netdevice_notifiers() in write lock.
2.remove unused bond->lock for monitor function, only use the existing rtnl lock().
3.use rcu_read_lock() to protect it, of course, it will transform bond_for_each_slave to
bond_for_each_slave_rcu() and performance is better, but in slow path, it is ignored.
so I remove the bond->lock and move the rtnl lock to protect the whole monitor function.
