The callback is invoked using 'devlink dev info <pci>' command and returns
the running and pending firmware version of the HCA and the name of the
kernel driver.
If there is a pending firmware version (a new version is burned but the
HCA still runs with the previous) it is returned as the stored
firmware version. Otherwise, the running version is returned for this

pull-request: bpf-next 2019-07-03
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
There is a minor merge conflict in mlx5 due to 8960b38932 ("linux/dim:
Rename externally used net_dim members") which has been pulled into your
tree in the meantime, but resolution seems not that bad ... getting current
bpf-next out now before there's coming more on mlx5. ;) I'm Cc'ing Saeed
just so he's aware of the resolution below:
** First conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_main.c:
<<<<<<< HEAD
static int mlx5e_open_cq(struct mlx5e_channel *c,
struct dim_cq_moder moder,
struct mlx5e_cq_param *param,
struct mlx5e_cq *cq)
=======
int mlx5e_open_cq(struct mlx5e_channel *c, struct net_dim_cq_moder moder,
struct mlx5e_cq_param *param, struct mlx5e_cq *cq)
>>>>>>> e5a3e259ef
Resolution is to take the second chunk and rename net_dim_cq_moder into
dim_cq_moder. Also the signature for mlx5e_open_cq() in ...
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en.h +977
... and in mlx5e_open_xsk() ...
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en/xsk/setup.c +64
... needs the same rename from net_dim_cq_moder into dim_cq_moder.
** Second conflict in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_main.c:
<<<<<<< HEAD
int cpu = cpumask_first(mlx5_comp_irq_get_affinity_mask(priv->mdev, ix));
struct dim_cq_moder icocq_moder = {0, 0};
struct net_device *netdev = priv->netdev;
struct mlx5e_channel *c;
unsigned int irq;
=======
struct net_dim_cq_moder icocq_moder = {0, 0};
>>>>>>> e5a3e259ef
Take the second chunk and rename net_dim_cq_moder into dim_cq_moder
as well.
Let me know if you run into any issues. Anyway, the main changes are:
1) Long-awaited AF_XDP support for mlx5e driver, from Maxim.
2) Addition of two new per-cgroup BPF hooks for getsockopt and
setsockopt along with a new sockopt program type which allows more
fine-grained pass/reject settings for containers. Also add a sock_ops
callback that can be selectively enabled on a per-socket basis and is
executed for every RTT to help tracking TCP statistics, both features
from Stanislav.
3) Follow-up fix from loops in precision tracking which was not propagating
precision marks and as a result verifier assumed that some branches were
not taken and therefore wrongly removed as dead code, from Alexei.
4) Fix BPF cgroup release synchronization race which could lead to a
double-free if a leaf's cgroup_bpf object is released and a new BPF
program is attached to the one of ancestor cgroups in parallel, from Roman.
5) Support for bulking XDP_TX on veth devices which improves performance
in some cases by around 9%, from Toshiaki.
6) Allow for lookups into BPF devmap and improve feedback when calling into
bpf_redirect_map() as lookup is now performed right away in the helper
itself, from Toke.
7) Add support for fq's Earliest Departure Time to the Host Bandwidth
Manager (HBM) sample BPF program, from Lawrence.
8) Various cleanups and minor fixes all over the place from many others.

Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or
SYN/ACK messages.
This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu
overhead.
Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes
the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40
bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload.
In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value
to a saner value.
We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility
reasons.
Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value
of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value
in commit c39508d6f1 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.")
from 64 to 88.
We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

Mlx5 devlink health fw reporters and sw reset support
This series provides mlx5 firmware reset support and firmware devlink health
reporters.
1) Add initial mlx5 kernel documentation and include devlink health reporters
2) Add CR-Space access and FW Crdump snapshot support via devlink region_snapshot
3) Issue software reset upon FW asserts
4) Add fw and fw_fatal devlink heath reporters to follow fw errors indication by
dump and recover procedures and enable trigger these functionality by user.
4.1) fw reporter:
The fw reporter implements diagnose and dump callbacks.
It follows symptoms of fw error such as fw syndrome by triggering
fw core dump and storing it and any other fw trace into the dump buffer.
The fw reporter diagnose command can be triggered any time by the user to check
current fw status.
4.2) fw_fatal repoter:
The fw_fatal reporter implements dump and recover callbacks.
It follows fatal errors indications by CR-space dump and recover flow.
The CR-space dump uses vsc interface which is valid even if the FW command
interface is not functional, which is the case in most FW fatal errors. The
CR-space dump is stored as a memory region snapshot to ease read by address.
The recover function runs recover flow which reloads the driver and triggers fw
reset if needed.

Multipath hash policy value of 0 isn't distributing since the outer IP
dest and src aren't varied eventhough the inner ones are. Since the flow
is on the inner ones in the case of tunneled traffic, hashing on them is
desired.
This is done mainly for IP over GRE, hence only tested for that. But
anything else supported by flow dissection should work.
v2: Use skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys() directly so that other tunneling
can be supported through flow dissection (per Nikolay Aleksandrov).
v3: Remove accidental inclusion of ports in the hash keys and clarify
the documentation (Nikolay Alexandrov).

TLS offload drivers keep track of TCP seq numbers to make sure
the packets are fed into the HW in order.
When packets get dropped on the way through the stack, the driver
will get out of sync and have to use fallback encryption, but unless
TCP seq number is resynced it will never match the packets correctly
(or even worse - use incorrect record sequence number after TCP seq
wraps).
Existing drivers (mlx5) feed the entire record on every out-of-order
event, allowing FW/HW to always be in sync.
This patch adds an alternative, more akin to the RX resync. When
driver sees a frame which is past its expected sequence number the
stream must have gotten out of order (if the sequence number is
smaller than expected its likely a retransmission which doesn't
require resync). Driver will ask the stack to perform TX sync
before it submits the next full record, and fall back to software
crypto until stack has performed the sync.

TLS offload device may lose sync with the TCP stream if packets
arrive out of order. Drivers can currently request a resync at
a specific TCP sequence number. When a record is found starting
at that sequence number kernel will inform the device of the
corresponding record number.
This requires the device to constantly scan the stream for a
known pattern (constant bytes of the header) after sync is lost.
This patch adds an alternative approach which is entirely under
the control of the kernel. Kernel tracks records it had to fully
decrypt, even though TLS socket is in TLS_HW mode. If multiple
records did not have any decrypted parts - it's a pretty strong
indication that the device is out of sync.
We choose the min number of fully encrypted records to be 2,
which should hopefully be more than will get retransmitted at
a time.
After kernel decides the device is out of sync it schedules a
resync request. If the TCP socket is empty the resync gets
performed immediately. If socket is not empty we leave the
record parser to resync when next record comes.
Before resync in message parser we peek at the TCP socket and
don't attempt the sync if the socket already has some of the
next record queued.
On resync failure (encrypted data continues to flow in) we
retry with exponential backoff, up to once every 128 records
(with a 16k record thats at most once every 2M of data).

It's possible that TCP stack will decide to retransmit a packet
right when that packet's data gets acked, especially in presence
of packet reordering. This means that packets may be in flight,
even though tls_device code has already freed their record state.
Make fill_sg_in() and in turn tls_sw_fallback() not generate a
warning in that case, and quietly proceed to drop such frames.
Make the exit path from tls_sw_fallback() drop monitor friendly,
for users to be able to troubleshoot dropped retransmissions.

The phylink_config structure will encapsulate a pointer to a struct
device and the operation type requested for this instance of PHYLINK.
This patch does not make any functional changes, it just transitions the
PHYLINK internals and all its users to the new API.
A pointer to a phylink_config structure will be passed to
phylink_create() instead of the net_device directly. Also, the same
phylink_config pointer will be passed back to all phylink_mac_ops
callbacks instead of the net_device. Using this mechanism, a PHYLINK
user can get the original net_device using a structure such as
'to_net_dev(config->dev)' or directly the structure containing the
phylink_config using a container_of call.
At the moment, only the PHYLINK_NETDEV is defined as a valid operation
type for PHYLINK. In this mode, a valid reference to a struct device
linked to the original net_device should be passed to PHYLINK through
the phylink_config structure.
This API changes is mainly driven by the necessity of adding a new
operation type in PHYLINK that disconnects the phy_device from the
net_device and also works when the net_device is lacking.

It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be

To make ICMPv6 closer to ICMPv4, add ratemask parameter. Since the ICMP

I use large bitmap. The input and output are the in form of list of
ranges. Set the default to rate limit all error messages but Packet Too
Big. For Packet Too Big, use ratemask instead of hard-coded.
There are functions where icmpv6_xrlim_allow() and icmpv6_global_allow()
aren't called. This patch only adds them to icmpv6_echo_reply().
Rate limiting error messages is mandated by RFC 4443 but RFC 4890 says
that it is also acceptable to rate limit informational messages. Thus,
I removed the current hard-coded behavior of icmpv6_mask_allow() that
doesn't rate limit informational messages.

fib_trie implementation calls synchronize_rcu when a certain amount of
pages are dirty from freed entries. The number of pages was determined
experimentally in 2009 (commit c3059477fc).
At the current setting, synchronize_rcu is called often -- 51 times in a
second in one test with an average of an 8 msec delay adding a fib entry.
The total impact is a lot of slow down modifying the fib. This is seen
in the output of 'time' - the difference between real time and sys+user.
For example, using 720,022 single path routes and 'ip -batch'[1]:
$ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
real 0m14.214s
user 0m2.513s
sys 0m6.783s
So roughly 35% of the actual time to install the routes is from the ip
command getting scheduled out, most notably due to synchronize_rcu (this
is observed using 'perf sched timehist').
This patch makes the amount of dirty memory configurable between 64k where
the synchronize_rcu is called often (small, low end systems that are memory
sensitive) to 64M where synchronize_rcu is called rarely during a large
FIB change (for high end systems with lots of memory). The default is 512kB
which corresponds to the current setting of 128 pages with a 4kB page size.
As an example, at 16MB the worst interval shows 4 calls to synchronize_rcu
in a second blocking for up to 30 msec in a single instance, and a total
of almost 100 msec across the 4 calls in the second. The trade off is
allowing FIB entries to consume more memory in a given time window but
but with much better fib insertion rates (~30% increase in prefixes/sec).
With this patch and net.ipv4.fib_sync_mem set to 16MB, the same batch
file runs in:
$ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
real 0m9.692s
user 0m2.491s
sys 0m6.769s
So the dead time is reduced to about 1/2 second or <5% of the real time.
[1] 'ip' modified to not request ACK messages which improves route
insertion times by about 20%

pull-request: bpf-next 2019-03-04
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Add AF_XDP support to libbpf. Rationale is to facilitate writing
AF_XDP applications by offering higher-level APIs that hide many
of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. Sample programs are converted
over to this new interface as well, from Magnus.
2) Introduce a new cant_sleep() macro for annotation of functions
that cannot sleep and use it in BPF_PROG_RUN() to assert that
BPF programs run under preemption disabled context, from Peter.
3) Introduce per BPF prog stats in order to monitor the usage
of BPF; this is controlled by kernel.bpf_stats_enabled sysctl
knob where monitoring tools can make use of this to efficiently
determine the average cost of programs, from Alexei.
4) Split up BPF selftest's test_progs similarly as we already
did with test_verifier. This allows to further reduce merge
conflicts in future and to get more structure into our
quickly growing BPF selftest suite, from Stanislav.
5) Fix a bug in BTF's dedup algorithm which can cause an infinite
loop in some circumstances; also various BPF doc fixes and
improvements, from Andrii.
6) Various BPF sample cleanups and migration to libbpf in order
to further isolate the old sample loader code (so we can get
rid of it at some point), from Jakub.
7) Add a new BPF helper for BPF cgroup skb progs that allows
to set ECN CE code point and a Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM)
sample program for limiting the bandwidth used by v2 cgroups,
from Lawrence.
8) Enable write access to skb->queue_mapping from tc BPF egress
programs in order to let BPF pick TX queue, from Jesper.
9) Fix a bug in BPF spinlock handling for map-in-map which did
not propagate spin_lock_off to the meta map, from Yonghong.
10) Fix a bug in the new per-CPU BPF prog counters to properly
initialize stats for each CPU, from Eric.
11) Add various BPF helper prototypes to selftest's bpf_helpers.h,
from Willem.
12) Fix various BPF samples bugs in XDP and tracing progs,
from Toke, Daniel and Yonghong.
13) Silence preemption splat in test_bpf after BPF_PROG_RUN()
enforces it now everywhere, from Anders.
14) Fix a signedness bug in libbpf's btf_dedup_ref_type() to
get error handling working, from Dan.
15) Fix bpftool documentation and auto-completion with regards
to stream_{verdict,parser} attach types, from Alban.

Three conflicts, one of which, for marvell10g.c is non-trivial and

The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping

However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex.
On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory
leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding
the rtnl-ness support.
What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the
conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back
to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's
races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to
implement the race fix slightly differently.

All users of the fixed_phy_add() pass -1 as GPIO number
to the fixed phy driver, and all users of fixed_phy_register()
pass -1 as GPIO number as well, except for the device
tree MDIO bus.
Any new users should create a proper device and pass the
GPIO as a descriptor associated with the device so delete
the GPIO argument from the calls and drop the code looking
requesting a GPIO in fixed_phy_add().
In fixed phy_register(), investigate the "fixed-link"
node and pick the GPIO descriptor from "link-gpios" if
this property exists. Move the corresponding code out
of of_mdio.c as the fixed phy code anyways requires
OF to be in use.

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

2) Add JMP32 instructions to BPF ISA in order to allow for optimizing

generation. Also add implementation for most JITs, from Jiong.
3) Add support for __int128 types in BTF which is also needed for
vmlinux's BTF conversion to work, from Yonghong.
4) Add a new command to bpftool in order to dump a list of BPF-related

The changes introduced to allow rxrpc calls to be retried creates an issue
when it comes to refcounting afs_call structs. The problem is that when
rxrpc_send_data() queues the last packet for an asynchronous call, the
following sequence can occur:
(1) The notify_end_tx callback is invoked which causes the state in the
afs_call to be changed from AFS_CALL_CL_REQUESTING or
AFS_CALL_SV_REPLYING.
(2) afs_deliver_to_call() can then process event notifications from rxrpc
on the async_work queue.
(3) Delivery of events, such as an abort from the server, can cause the
afs_call state to be changed to AFS_CALL_COMPLETE on async_work.
(4) For an asynchronous call, afs_process_async_call() notes that the call
is complete and tried to clean up all the refs on async_work.
(5) rxrpc_send_data() might return the amount of data transferred
(success) or an error - which could in turn reflect a local error or a
received error.
Synchronising the clean up after rxrpc_kernel_send_data() returns an error
with the asynchronous cleanup is then tricky to get right.
Mostly revert commit c038a58ccf. The two API
functions the original commit added aren't currently used. This makes
rxrpc_kernel_send_data() always return successfully if it queued the data
it was given.
Note that this doesn't affect synchronous calls since their Rx notification
function merely pokes a wait queue and does not refcounting. The
asynchronous call notification function *has* to do refcounting and pass a
ref over the work item to avoid the need to sync the workqueue in call
cleanup.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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>.

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.

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

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.

Rename the Intel Ethernet Adaptive Virtual Function driver

the ongoing maintenance of the driver as the universal VF driver

This first patch fixes up the directory names and the .ko name,
intentionally ignoring the function names inside the driver

the rename done and will be followed by other patches that
rename the internal functions.

This is a respin with a wider audience (all that get_maintainer returned)
and I know this spams a *lot* of people. Not sure what would be the correct
way, so my apologies for ruining your inbox.
The 00-INDEX files are supposed to give a summary of all files present
in a directory, but these files are horribly out of date and their
usefulness is brought into question. Often a simple "ls" would reveal
the same information as the filenames are generally quite descriptive as
a short introduction to what the file covers (it should not surprise
anyone what Documentation/sched/sched-design-CFS.txt covers)
A few years back it was mentioned that these files were no longer really
needed, and they have since then grown further out of date, so perhaps
it is time to just throw them out.
A short status yields the following _outdated_ 00-INDEX files, first
counter is files listed in 00-INDEX but missing in the directory, last
is files present but not listed in 00-INDEX.
List of outdated 00-INDEX:
Documentation: (4/10)
Documentation/sysctl: (0/1)
Documentation/timers: (1/0)
Documentation/blockdev: (3/1)
Documentation/w1/slaves: (0/1)
Documentation/locking: (0/1)
Documentation/devicetree: (0/5)
Documentation/power: (1/1)
Documentation/powerpc: (0/5)
Documentation/arm: (1/0)
Documentation/x86: (0/9)
Documentation/x86/x86_64: (1/1)
Documentation/scsi: (4/4)
Documentation/filesystems: (2/9)
Documentation/filesystems/nfs: (0/2)
Documentation/cgroup-v1: (0/2)
Documentation/kbuild: (0/4)
Documentation/spi: (1/0)
Documentation/virtual/kvm: (1/0)
Documentation/scheduler: (0/2)
Documentation/fb: (0/1)
Documentation/block: (0/1)
Documentation/networking: (6/37)
Documentation/vm: (1/3)
Then there are 364 subdirectories in Documentation/ with several files that
are missing 00-INDEX alltogether (and another 120 with a single file and no
00-INDEX).
I don't really have an opinion to whether or not we /should/ have 00-INDEX,
but the above 00-INDEX should either be removed or be kept up to date. If
we should keep the files, I can try to keep them updated, but I rather not
if we just want to delete them anyway.
As a starting point, remove all index-files and references to 00-INDEX and
see where the discussion is going.

If the "offload" attribute is used to create an IPsec SA
and the .xdo_dev_state_add() fails, the SA creation fails.
However, if the "offload" attribute is used on a device that
doesn't offer it, the attribute is quietly ignored and the SA
is created without an offload.
Along the same line of that second case, it would be good to
have a way for the device to refuse to offload an SA without
failing the whole SA creation. This patch adds that feature
by allowing the driver to return -EOPNOTSUPP as a signal that
the SA may be fine, it just can't be offloaded.
This allows the user a little more flexibility in requesting
offloads and not needing to know every detail at all times about
each specific NIC when trying to create SAs.

After IPv4 packets are forwarded, the priority of the corresponding SKB
is updated according to the TOS field of IPv4 header. This overrides any
prioritization done earlier by e.g. an skbedit action or ingress-qos-map
defined at a vlan device.
Such overriding may not always be desirable. Even if the packet ends up
being routed, which implies this is an L3 network node, an administrator
may wish to preserve whatever prioritization was done earlier on in the
pipeline.
Therefore introduce a sysctl that controls this behavior. Keep the
default value at 1 to maintain backward-compatible behavior.
