Alexander Duyck says: ==================== Replace wmb()/rmb() with dma_wmb()/dma_rmb() where appropriate This is a start of a side project cleaning up the drivers that can make use of the dma_wmb and dma_rmb calls. The general idea is to start removing the unnecessary wmb/rmb calls from a number of drivers and to make use of the lighter weight dma_wmb/dma_rmb calls as this should allow for an overall improvement in performance as each barrier can cost a significant number of cycles and on architectures such as x86 this is unnecessary. These changes are what I would consider low hanging fruit. The likelihood of the changes introducing an error should be low since the use of the barriers in these cases are fairly obvious. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Fast Open has been using an experimental option with a magic number (RFC6994). This patch makes the client by default use the RFC7413 option (34) to get and send Fast Open cookies. This patch makes the client solicit cookies from a given server first with the RFC7413 option. If that fails to elicit a cookie, then it tries the RFC6994 experimental option. If that also fails, it uses the RFC7413 option on all subsequent connect attempts. If the server returns a Fast Open cookie then the client caches the form of the option that successfully elicited a cookie, and uses that form on later connects when it presents that cookie. The idea is to gradually obsolete the use of experimental options as the servers and clients upgrade, while keeping the interoperability meanwhile.

Prevent UDP tunnels from operating on garbage socket So this should do the rest of the work such that when we encapsulate into a UDP tunnel, the output path works on the UDP tunnel's socket rather than skb->sk. Part of this work is based upon changes done by Jiri Pirko some time ago. Basically the first step is to pass the socket through the nf_hook okfn(), and then next we do the same for the UDP tunnel xmit routines. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two socket contexts. First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that generated the frame. And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP. We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting. The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device. We hit code paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4 socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) In TCP, don't register an FRTO for cumulatively ACK'd data that was previously SACK'd, from Neal Cardwell. 2) Need to hold RNL mutex in ipv4 multicast code namespace cleanup, from Cong WANG. 3) Similarly we have to hold RNL mutex for fib_rules_unregister(), also from Cong WANG. 4) Revert and rework netns nsid allocation fix, from Nicolas Dichtel. 5) When we encapsulate for a tunnel device, skb->sk still points to the user socket. So this leads to cases where we retraverse the ipv4/ipv6 output path with skb->sk being of some other address family (f.e. AF_PACKET). This can cause things to crash since the ipv4 output path is dereferencing an AF_PACKET socket as if it were an ipv4 one. The short term fix for 'net' and -stable is to elide these socket checks once we've entered an encapsulation sequence by testing xmit_recursion. Longer term we have a better solution wherein we pass the tunnel's socket down through the output paths, but that is way too invasive for 'net' and -stable. From Hannes Frederic Sowa. 6) l2tp_init() failure path forgets to unregister per-net ops, from Cong WANG. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net/mlx4_core: Fix error message deprecation for ConnectX-2 cards net: dsa: fix filling routing table from OF description l2tp: unregister l2tp_net_ops on failure path mvneta: dont call mvneta_adjust_link() manually ipv6: protect skb->sk accesses from recursive dereference inside the stack netns: don't allocate an id for dead netns Revert "netns: don't clear nsid too early on removal" ip6mr: call del_timer_sync() in ip6mr_free_table() net: move fib_rules_unregister() under rtnl lock ipv4: take rtnl_lock and mark mrt table as freed on namespace cleanup tcp: fix FRTO undo on cumulative ACK of SACKed range xen-netfront: transmit fully GSO-sized packets

According to description in 'include/net/dsa.h', in cascade switches configurations where there are more than one interconnected devices, 'rtable' array in 'dsa_chip_data' structure is used to indicate which port on this switch should be used to send packets to that are destined for corresponding switch. However, dsa_of_setup_routing_table() fills 'rtable' with port numbers of the _target_ switch, but not current one. This commit removes redundant devicetree parsing and adds needed port number as a function argument. So dsa_of_setup_routing_table() now just looks for target switch number by parsing parent of 'link' device node. To remove possible misunderstandings with the way of determining target switch number, a corresponding comment was added to the source code and to the DSA device tree bindings documentation file. This was tested on a custom board with two Marvell 88E6095 switches with following corresponding routing tables: { -1, 10 } and { 8, -1 }.

Commit 608cd71a ("tc: bpf: generalize pedit action") has added the possibility to mangle packet data to BPF programs in the tc pipeline. This patch adds two helpers bpf_l3_csum_replace() and bpf_l4_csum_replace() for fixing up the protocol checksums after the packet mangling. It also adds 'flags' argument to bpf_skb_store_bytes() helper to avoid unnecessary checksum recomputations when BPF programs adjusting l3/l4 checksums and documents all three helpers in uapi header. Moreover, a sample program is added to show how BPF programs can make use of the mangle and csum helpers.

We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process. ipv6 does not conform with this in three places: 1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size 2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should loop the packet back to the local socket 3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and force a wrong MTU Furthermore: In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device. Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting tunnel devices.
