In a few cases the err-variable is not set to a negative error code if a function call in typhoon_init_one() fails and thus 0 is returned instead. It may be better to set err to the appropriate negative error code before returning.

IP_MULTICAST_IF fails if sk_bound_dev_if is already set and the new index does not match it. e.g., ntpd[15381]: setsockopt IP_MULTICAST_IF 192.168.1.23 fails: Invalid argument Relax the check in setsockopt to allow setting mc_index to an L3 slave if sk_bound_dev_if points to an L3 master. Make a similar change for IPv6. In this case change the device lookup to take the rcu_read_lock avoiding a refcnt. The rcu lock is also needed for the lookup of a potential L3 master device. This really only silences a setsockopt failure since uses of mc_index are secondary to sk_bound_dev_if if it is set. In both cases, if either index is an L3 slave or master, lookups are directed to the same FIB table so relaxing the check at setsockopt time causes no harm. Patch is based on a suggested change by Darwin for a problem noted in their code base.

Reads from Octeon PCI console are inefficient because before each read operation, a dynamic mapping to Octeon DRAM is set up. This patch replaces the repeated setup of a dynamic mapping with a one-time setup of a static mapping.

Oftenly, introducing side effects on packet processing on the other half of the stack by adjusting one of TX/RX via sysctl is not desirable. There are cases of demand for asymmetric, orthogonal configurability. This holds true especially for nodes where RPS for RFS usage on top is configured and therefore use the 'old dev_weight'. This is quite a common base configuration setup nowadays, even with NICs of superior processing support (e.g. aRFS). A good example use case are nodes acting as noSQL data bases with a large number of tiny requests and rather fewer but large packets as responses. It's affordable to have large budget and rx dev_weights for the requests. But as a side effect having this large a number on TX processed in one run can overwhelm drivers. This patch therefore introduces an independent configurability via sysctl to userland. Signed-off-by: Matthias Tafelmeier <matthias.tafelmeier@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch refactors sctp_datamsg_from_user() in an attempt to make it better to read and avoid code duplication for handling the last fragment. It also avoids doing division and remaining operations. Even though, it should still operate similarly as before this patch.

Michael Chan says: ==================== bnxt_en: updates for net-next. This patch series for net-next contains cleanups, new features and minor fixes. The driver specific busy polling code is removed to use busy polling support in core networking. Hardware RFS support is enhanced with added ipv6 flows support and VF support. A new scheme to allocate TX rings from the firmware is implemented for newer chips and firmware. Plus some misc. cleanups, minor fixes, and to add the maintainer entry. Please review. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The current code assumes that we will always have at least 2 rx rings, 1 will be used as an aggregation ring for TPA and jumbo page placements. However, it is possible, especially on a VF, that there is only 1 rx ring available. In this scenario, the current code will fail to initialize. To handle it, we need to properly set up only 1 ring without aggregation. Set a new flag BNXT_FLAG_NO_AGG_RINGS for this condition and add logic to set up the chip to place RX data linearly into a single buffer per packet.

With the added support for the bnxt_re RDMA driver, both drivers can be allocating completion rings in any order. The firmware does not know which completion ring should be receiving async events. Add an extra step to tell firmware the completion ring number for receiving async events after bnxt_en allocates the completion rings.

In order to properly support TX rate limiting in SRIOV VF functions or NPAR functions, firmware needs better control over tx ring allocations. The new scheme requires the driver to reserve the number of tx rings and to query to see if the requested number of tx rings is reserved. The driver will use the new scheme when the firmware interface spec is 1.6.1 or newer. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <michael.chan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The existing hardware RFS mode uses one hardware RSS context block per ring just to calculate the RSS hash. This is very wasteful and prevents VF functions from using it. The new hardware mode shares the same hardware RSS context for RSS placement and RFS steering. This allows VFs to enable RFS.

The advertising field is closely related to the auto_link_speeds field. The former is the user setting while the latter is the firmware setting. Both should be u16. We should use the advertising field in bnxt_get_link_ksettings because the auto_link_speeds field may not be updated with the latest from the firmware yet.

The IRQ is disabled by writing to the completion ring doorbell. This should be done before the hardware completion ring is freed for correctness. The current code disables IRQs after all the completion rings are freed. Fix it by calling bnxt_disable_int_sync() before freeing the completion rings.

There are three functions which would invoke the ipvlan_count_rx. They are ipvlan_process_multicast, ipvlan_rcv_frame, and ipvlan_nf_input. The former two functions already use the ipvlan directly before ipvlan_count_rx, and ipvlan_nf_input gets the ipvlan from ipvl_addr->master, it is not possible to be NULL too. So the ipvlan pointer check is unnecessary in ipvlan_count_rx. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng <fgao@ikuai8.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) Various ipvlan fixes from Eric Dumazet and Mahesh Bandewar. The most important is to not assume the packet is RX just because the destination address matches that of the device. Such an assumption causes problems when an interface is put into loopback mode. 2) If we retry when creating a new tc entry (because we dropped the RTNL mutex in order to load a module, for example) we end up with -EAGAIN and then loop trying to replay the request. But we didn't reset some state when looping back to the top like this, and if another thread meanwhile inserted the same tc entry we were trying to, we re-link it creating an enless loop in the tc chain. Fix from Daniel Borkmann. 3) There are two different WRITE bits in the MDIO address register for the stmmac chip, depending upon the chip variant. Due to a bug we could set them both, fix from Hock Leong Kweh. 4) Fix mlx4 bug in XDP_TX handling, from Tariq Toukan. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: net: stmmac: fix incorrect bit set in gmac4 mdio addr register r8169: add support for RTL8168 series add-on card. net: xdp: remove unused bfp_warn_invalid_xdp_buffer() openvswitch: upcall: Fix vlan handling. ipv4: Namespaceify tcp_tw_reuse knob net: korina: Fix NAPI versus resources freeing net, sched: fix soft lockup in tc_classify net/mlx4_en: Fix user prio field in XDP forward tipc: don't send FIN message from connectionless socket ipvlan: fix multicast processing ipvlan: fix various issues in ipvlan_process_multicast()
