      qlcnic: refactor Tx/SDS ring calculation and validation in driver. · 34e8c406
      Himanshu Madhani authored
      o Current driver has duplicate code for validating user input
        for changing Tx/SDS rings using set_channel ethtool interface.
        This patch removes duplicate code and refactored Tx/SDS ring
        validation for 82xx/83xx/84xx series adapter.
      o Refactored code now calculates maximum Tx/Rx ring driver can
        support based on Default, NPAR and SRIOV PF/VF mode of driver.

      lib: crc32: reduce number of cases for crc32{, c}_combine · 16514839
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      We can safely reduce the number of test cases by a tenth.
      There is no particular need to run as many as we're running
      now for crc32{,c}_combine, that gives us still ~8000 tests
      we're doing if people run kernels with crc selftests enabled
      which is perfectly fine.

      net: checksum: fix warning in skb_checksum · cea80ea8
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      This patch fixes a build warning in skb_checksum() by wrapping the
      csum_partial() usage in skb_checksum(). The problem is that on a few
      architectures, csum_partial is used with prefix asmlinkage whereas
      on most architectures it's not. So fix this up generically as we did
      with csum_block_add_ext() to match the signature. Introduced by
      2817a336 ("net: skb_checksum: allow custom update/combine for
      walking skb").

      The first patch fixes a problem in the c_can's RX message handling, which can
      lead to an endless interrupt loop under heavy load if messages are lost. The
      second patch is by Olivier Sobrie and fixes the endpoint detection of the

      net: sctp: do not trigger BUG_ON in sctp_cmd_delete_tcb · 7926c1d5
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      Introduced in f9e42b85 ("net: sctp: sideeffect: throw BUG if
      primary_path is NULL"), we intended to find a buggy assoc that's
      part of the assoc hash table with a primary_path that is NULL.
      However, we better remove the BUG_ON for now and find a more
      suitable place to assert for these things as Mark reports that
      this also triggers the bug when duplication cookie processing
      happens, and the assoc is not part of the hash table (so all
      good in this case). Such a situation can for example easily be
      reproduced by:
      
        tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: prio bands 2 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1
        tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:2 handle 20: netem loss 20%
        tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent 1: prio 2 u32 match ip \
                  protocol 132 0xff match u8 0x0b 0xff at 32 flowid 1:2
      
      This drops 20% of COOKIE-ACK packets. After some follow-up
      discussion with Vlad we came to the conclusion that for now we
      should still better remove this BUG_ON() assertion, and come up
      with two follow-ups later on, that is, i) find a more suitable
      place for this assertion, and possibly ii) have a special
      allocator/initializer for such kind of temporary assocs.

      net/hsr: Add support for the High-availability Seamless Redundancy protocol (HSRv0) · f421436a
      Arvid Brodin authored
      High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover
      redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where
      all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network
      interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and
      very short reaction time.
      
      HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to
      send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates
      virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux
      network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring
      must be HSR capable.
      
      This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in
      IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0).

      net: extend net_device allocation to vmalloc() · 74d332c1
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Joby Poriyath provided a xen-netback patch to reduce the size of
      xenvif structure as some netdev allocation could fail under
      memory pressure/fragmentation.
      
      This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing
      any netdev structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed.
      
      As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
      to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.

      net: sctp: fix and consolidate SCTP checksumming code · e6d8b64b
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      This fixes an outstanding bug found through IPVS, where SCTP packets
      with skb->data_len > 0 (non-linearized) and empty frag_list, but data
      accumulated in frags[] member, are forwarded with incorrect checksum
      letting SCTP initial handshake fail on some systems. Linearizing each
      SCTP skb in IPVS to prevent that would not be a good solution as
      this leads to an additional and unnecessary performance penalty on
      the load-balancer itself for no good reason (as we actually only want
      to update the checksum, and can do that in a different/better way
      presented here).
      
      The actual problem is elsewhere, namely, that SCTP's checksumming
      in sctp_compute_cksum() does not take frags[] into account like
      skb_checksum() does. So while we are fixing this up, we better reuse
      the existing code that we have anyway in __skb_checksum() and use it
      for walking through the data doing checksumming. This will not only
      fix this issue, but also consolidates some SCTP code with core
      sk_buff code, bringing it closer together and removing respectively
      avoiding reimplementation of skb_checksum() for no good reason.
      
      As crc32c() can use hardware implementation within the crypto layer,
      we leave that intact (it wraps around / falls back to e.g. slice-by-8
      algorithm in __crc32c_le() otherwise); plus use the __crc32c_le_combine()
      combinator for crc32c blocks.
      
      Also, we remove all other SCTP checksumming code, so that we only
      have to use sctp_compute_cksum() from now on; for doing that, we need
      to transform SCTP checkumming in output path slightly, and can leave
      the rest intact.

      net: skb_checksum: allow custom update/combine for walking skb · 2817a336
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      Currently, skb_checksum walks over 1) linearized, 2) frags[], and
      3) frag_list data and calculats the one's complement, a 32 bit
      result suitable for feeding into itself or csum_tcpudp_magic(),
      but unsuitable for SCTP as we're calculating CRC32c there.
      
      Hence, in order to not re-implement the very same function in
      SCTP (and maybe other protocols) over and over again, use an
      update() + combine() callback internally to allow for walking
      over the skb with different algorithms.

      lib: crc32: add functionality to combine two crc32{, c}s in GF(2) · 6e95fcaa
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      This patch adds a combinator to merge two or more crc32{,c}s
      into a new one. This is useful for checksum computations of
      fragmented skbs that use crc32/crc32c as checksums.
      
      The arithmetics for combining both in the GF(2) was taken and
      slightly modified from zlib. Only passing two crcs is insufficient
      as two crcs and the length of the second piece is needed for
      merging. The code is made generic, so that only polynomials
      need to be passed for crc32_le resp. crc32c_le.
