      ====================
      mlx5-updates-2018-10-03
      
      mlx5 core driver and ethernet netdev updates, please note there is a small
      devlink releated update to allow extack argument to eswitch operations.
      
      From Eli Britstein,
      1) devlink: Add extack argument to the eswitch related operations
      2) net/mlx5e: E-Switch, return extack messages for failures in the e-switch devlink callbacks
      3) net/mlx5e: Add extack messages for TC offload failures
      
      From Eran Ben Elisha,
      4) mlx5e: Add counter for aRFS rule insertion failures
      
      From Feras Daoud
      5) Fast teardown support for mlx5 device
      This change introduces the enhanced version of the "Force teardown" that
      allows SW to perform teardown in a faster way without the need to reclaim
      all the FW pages.
      Fast teardown provides the following advantages:
          1- Fix a FW race condition that could cause command timeout
          2- Avoid moving to polling mode
          3- Close the vport to prevent PCI ACK to be sent without been scatter
          to memory

      ====================
      rxrpc: Development
      
      Here are some development patches for AF_RXRPC.  The most significant points
      are:
      
       (1) Change the tracepoint that indicates a packet has been transmitted
           into one that indicates a packet is about to be transmitted.  Without
           this, the response tracepoint may occur first if the round trip is
           fast enough.
      
       (2) Sort out AFS address list handling to better enforce maximum capacity
           to use helper functions to fill them and to do an insertion sort to
           order them.  This is here to make (3) easier.
      
       (3) Keep AF_INET addresses as AF_INET addresses rather than converting
           them to AF_INET6 in both AF_RXRPC and kAFS.  I hadn't realised that a
           UDP6 socket would just call down into UDP4 if given an AF_INET
           address.
      
       (4) Allow the timestamp on the first DATA packet of a reply to be
           retrieved by a kernel service.  This will give the kAFS a more
           accurate base from which to calculate the callback promise expiration.
      
       (5) Allow the rxrpc protocol epoch value to be retrieved from an incoming
           call.  This will allow kAFS to determine if the fileserver restarted
           and if two addresses apparently assigned to the same fileserver
           actually are different boxes.

      dns: Allow the dns resolver to retrieve a server set · bbb4c432
      David Howells authored
      Allow the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
      addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.
      
      In terms of communication with userspace, "srv=1" is added to the callout
      string (the '1' indicating the maximum data version supported by the
      kernel) to ask the userspace side for this.
      
      If the userspace side doesn't recognise it, it will ignore the option and
      return the usual text address list.
      
      If the userspace side does recognise it, it will return some binary data
      that begins with a zero byte that would cause the string parsers to give an
      error.  The second byte contains the version of the data in the blob (this
      may be between 1 and the version specified in the callout data).  The
      remainder of the payload is version-specific.
      
      In version 1, the payload looks like (note that this is packed):
      
      	u8	Non-string marker (ie. 0)
      	u8	Content (0 => Server list)
      	u8	Version (ie. 1)
      	u8	Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_DNS_SRV)
      	u8	Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOOD)
      	u8	Number of servers
      	foreach-server {
      		u16	Name length (LE)
      		u16	Priority (as per SRV record) (LE)
      		u16	Weight (as per SRV record) (LE)
      		u16	Port (LE)
      		u8	Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_NSS)
      		u8	Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_NOT_FOUND)
      		u8	Protocol (eg. DNS_SERVER_PROTOCOL_UDP)
      		u8	Number of addresses
      		char[]	Name (not NUL-terminated)
      		foreach-address {
      			u8		Family (AF_INET{,6})
      			union {
      				u8[4]	ipv4_addr
      				u8[16]	ipv6_addr
      			}
      		}
      	}
      
      This can then be used to fetch a whole cell's VL-server configuration for
      AFS, for example.

      An update from ieee802154 for *net-next*
      
      A very quite cycle in the ieee802154 subsystem. We only have two cleanup
      patches for this pull request.
      Xue removed the platform_data struct handling from the mcr20a driver and
      Alexander cleaned up some left overs in the hwsim driver.
      
      Please pull, or let me know if there are any problems.

      rxrpc: Allow the reply time to be obtained on a client call · e908bcf4
      David Howells authored
      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.

      rxrpc: Use IPv4 addresses throught the IPv6 · 46894a13
      David Howells authored
      AF_RXRPC opens an IPv6 socket through which to send and receive network
      packets, both IPv6 and IPv4.  It currently turns AF_INET addresses into
      AF_INET-as-AF_INET6 addresses based on an assumption that this was
      necessary; on further inspection of the code, however, it turns out that
      the IPv6 code just farms packets aimed at AF_INET addresses out to the IPv4
      code.
      
      Fix AF_RXRPC to use AF_INET addresses directly when given them.

      afs: Always build address lists using the helper functions · 4c19bbdc
      David Howells authored
      Make the address list string parser use the helper functions for adding
      addresses to an address list so that they end up appropriately sorted.
      This will better handles overruns and make them easier to compare.
      
      It also reduces the number of places that addresses are handled, making it
      easier to fix the handling.

      addresses that would exceed it in afs_merge_fs_addr{4,6}().
      
      Also, since the current maximum capacity is less than 255, reduce the
      relevant members to bytes.
