ip_skb_dst_mtu uses skb->sk, assuming it is an AF_INET socket (e.g. it
calls ip_sk_use_pmtu which casts sk as an inet_sk).

However, in the case of UDP tunneling, the skb->sk is not necessarily an
inet socket (could be AF_PACKET socket, or AF_UNSPEC if arriving from
tun/tap).

OTOH, the sk passed as an argument throughout IP stack's output path is
the one which is of PMTU interest:
 - In case of local sockets, sk is same as skb->sk;
 - In case of a udp tunnel, sk is the tunneling socket.

Fix, by passing ip_finish_output's sk to ip_skb_dst_mtu.

Only the first and last netlink message for a particular conntrack are
actually sent. The first message is sent through nf_conntrack_confirm when
the conntrack is committed. The last one is sent when the conntrack is
destroyed on timeout. The other conntrack state change messages are not
advertised.

When the conntrack subsystem is used from netfilter, nf_conntrack_confirm
is called for each packet, from the postrouting hook, which in turn calls
nf_ct_deliver_cached_events to send the state change netlink messages.

This commit fixes the problem by calling nf_ct_deliver_cached_events in the
non-commit case as well.

neigh_xmit() expects to be called inside an RCU-bh read side critical
section, and while one of its two current callers gets this right, the
other one doesn't.

More specifically, neigh_xmit() has two callers, mpls_forward() and
mpls_output(), and while both callers call neigh_xmit() under
rcu_read_lock(), this provides sufficient protection for neigh_xmit()
only in the case of mpls_forward(), as that is always called from
softirq context and therefore doesn't need explicit BH protection,
while mpls_output() can be called from process context with softirqs
enabled.

When mpls_output() is called from process context, with softirqs
enabled, we can be preempted by a softirq at any time, and RCU-bh
considers the completion of a softirq as signaling the end of any
pending read-side critical sections, so if we do get a softirq
while we are in the part of neigh_xmit() that expects to be run inside
an RCU-bh read side critical section, we can end up with an unexpected
RCU grace period running right in the middle of that critical section,
making things go boom.

This patch fixes this impedance mismatch in the callee, by making
neigh_xmit() always take rcu_read_{,un}lock_bh() around the code that
expects to be treated as an RCU-bh read side critical section, as this
seems a safer option than fixing it in the callers.

I've got a bug report about an e1000e interface, where a VLAN interface is
set up on top of it:

$ ip link add link ens1f0 name ens1f0.99 type vlan id 99
$ ip link set ens1f0 up
$ ip link set ens1f0.99 up
$ ip addr add 192.168.99.92 dev ens1f0.99

At this point, I can ping another host on vlan 99, ip 192.168.99.91.
However, if I do the following:

$ ethtool -K ens1f0 rxvlan off

Then no traffic passes on ens1f0.99. It comes back if I toggle rxvlan on
again. I'm not sure if this is actually intended behavior, or if there's a
lack of software VLAN stripping fallback, or what, but things continue to
work if I simply don't call e1000e_vlan_strip_disable() if there are
active VLANs (plagiarizing a function from the e1000 driver here) on the
interface.

Also slipped a related-ish fix to the kerneldoc text for
e1000e_vlan_strip_disable here...

The PDU length of incoming LLC frames is set to the total skb payload size
in __ieee80211_data_to_8023() of net/wireless/util.c which incorrectly
includes the length of the IEEE 802.11 header.

The resulting LLC frame header has a too large PDU length, causing the
llc_fixup_skb() function of net/llc/llc_input.c to reject the incoming
skb, effectively breaking STP.

Solve the problem by properly substracting the IEEE 802.11 frame header size
from the PDU length, allowing the LLC processor to pick up the incoming
control messages.

a suitable patch.

by another trace event program elsewhere, then we need to delay destruction

trace event with prog A attached destroyed, so we get immediate destruction).

Arjun reported a bug in TCP stack and bisected it to a recent commit.

In case where we process SACK, we can coalesce multiple skbs
into fat ones (tcp_shift_skb_data()), to lower write queue
overhead, because we do not expect to retransmit these packets.

However, SACK reneging can happen, forcing the sender to retransmit
all these packets. If skb->len is above 64KB, we then send buggy
IP packets that could hang TSO engine on cxgb4.

Neal suggested to use tcp_tso_autosize() instead of tp->gso_segs
so that we cook packets of optimal size vs TCP/pacing.

batman-adv: Fixes for Linux 4.7

Antonio currently seems to be occupied. This is currently rather unfortunate
because there are patches waiting in the batman-adv development repository
maint(enance) branch [1] since up to 6 weeks. I am now getting asked when
these patches will hit the distribution kernels and therefore decided to
submit these patches directly to netdev.

The patch from Simon works around the problem that warnings could be triggered
in the translation table code via packets using a VLAN not configured on the
target host. This warning was replaced with a rate limited info message.

Ben Hutchings found an superfluous batadv_softif_vlan_put in the error
handling code of the translation table while he backported the "batman-adv:
Fix reference counting of vlan object for tt_local_entry" patch to the stable
kernels. He noticed correctly that this batadv_softif_vlan_put should also
have been removed by the said patch.

The most requested fix at the moment is related to a double free in the
translation table code. It is a race condition which mostly happens on systems
with multiple cores and multiple network interface attached to batman-adv. Two
Freifunk communities which were haunted by weird crashes (with backtraces
reporting problems in other parts of the kernel) were kind enough to test this
patch. They reported that there systems are now running stable after applying
this patch.

An invalid memory access was detected in the batadv_icmp_packet_rr handling
code when receiving a skbuff with fragments. The last patch is fixing a memory
leak when the interface is removed via .dellink. The code to fix it was copied
from the code handling the legacy sysfs interface to remove netdevices from a
batman-adv netdevice.

There are still 28 patches in the development tree for v4.8 but I will leave
them to Antonio because these are cleanups and features and therefore for net-
next.

The untagged vlan object is only destroyed when the interface is removed
via the legacy sysfs interface. But it also has to be destroyed when the
standard rtnl-link interface is used.

The skb_linearize may reallocate the skb. This makes the calculated pointer
for ethhdr invalid. But it the pointer is used later to fill in the RR
field of the batadv_icmp_packet_rr packet.

Instead re-evaluate eth_hdr after the skb_linearize+skb_cow to fix the
pointer and avoid the invalid read.

Each batadv_tt_local_entry hold a single reference to a
batadv_softif_vlan.  In case a new entry cannot be added to the hash
table, the error path puts the reference, but the reference will also
now be dropped by batadv_tt_local_entry_release().

The tt_req_node is added and removed from a list inside a spinlock. But the
locking is sometimes removed even when the object is still referenced and
will be used later via this reference. For example batadv_send_tt_request
can create a new tt_req_node (including add to a list) and later
re-acquires the lock to remove it from the list and to free it. But at this
time another context could have already removed this tt_req_node from the
list and freed it.

This can only be solved via reference counting to allow multiple contexts
to handle the list manipulation while making sure that only the last
context holding a reference will free the object.

If a VLAN tagged frame is received and the corresponding VLAN is not
configured on the soft interface, it will splat a WARN on every packet
received. This is a quite annoying behaviour for some scenarios, e.g. if
bat0 is bridged with eth0, and there are arbitrary VLAN tagged frames
from Ethernet coming in without having any VLAN configuration on bat0.

The code should probably create vlan objects on the fly and
transparently transport these VLAN-tagged Ethernet frames, but until
this is done, at least the WARN splat should be replaced by a rate
limited output.
