      i40e: Record dma buffer info for dummy packets · 298deef1
      Anjali Singhai Jain authored
      Save information that we can use while cleaning the tx ring. Also record
      the time_stamp since we will need it to check tx hangs.

      net/mlx4_core: Warn if device doesn't have enough PCI bandwidth · b912b2f8
      Eyal Perry authored
      Check if the device get enough bandwidth from the entire PCI chain to satisfy
      its capabilities. This patch determines the PCIe device's bandwidth capabilities
      by reading its PCIe Link Capabilities registers and then call the
      pcie_get_minimum_link function to ensure that the adapter is hooked into a slot
      which is capable of providing the necessary bandwidth capabilities.

      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
      
      This series contains updates to i40e only.
      
      Anjali provides two cleanups to remove unnecessary code and a fix
      to resolve debugfs dumping only half the NVM.  Then provides a fix
      to ethtool NVM reads where shadow RAM was used instead of actual
      NVM reads.
      
      Jesse provides a couple of fixes, one removes custom i40e functions
      which duplicate existing kernel functionality.  Second fixes constant
      cast issues by replacing __constant_htons with htons.
      
      Mitch provides a couple of fixes for the VF interfaces in i40e.  First
      provides a fix to guard against VF message races with can cause a panic.
      Second fix reinitializes the buffer size each time we clean the ARQ,
      because subsequent messages can be truncated. Lastly adds functionality
      to enable/disable ICR 0 dynamically.
      
      Vasu adds a simple guard against multiple includes of the i40e_txrx.h
      file.
      
      Shannon provides a couple of fixes, first fix swaps a couple of lines
      around in the error handling if the allocation for the VSI array fails.
      Second fixes an issue where we try to free the q_vector that has not
      been setup which can panic the kernel.
      
      David provides a patch to save off the point to memory and the length
      of 2 structs used in the admin queue in order to store all info about
      allocated kernel memory.
      
      Neerav fixes ring allocation where allocation and clearing of rings
      for a VSI should be using the alloc_queue_pairs and not num_queue_pairs.
      Then removes the unused define for multi-queue enabled.

      8021q: make vlan_pcpu_stats visible without CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q · 1e85c9b6
      Hannes Frederic Sowa authored
      macvlan needs vlan_pcpu_stats so make it visible even if compiling
      without VLAN_8021Q support. Otherwise a very long compiler error happens.

      net: netdev_kobject_init: annotate with __init · a48d4bb0
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      netdev_kobject_init() is only being called from __init context,
      that is, net_dev_init(), so annotate it with __init as well, thus
      the kernel can take this as a hint that the function is used only
      during the initialization phase and free up used memory resources
      after its invocation.

      ====================
      netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
      
      The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree,
      they are:
      
      * Add full port randomization support. Some crazy researchers found a way
        to reconstruct the secure ephemeral ports that are allocated in random mode
        by sending off-path bursts of UDP packets to overrun the socket buffer of
        the DNS resolver to trigger retransmissions, then if the timing for the
        DNS resolution done by a client is larger than usual, then they conclude
        that the port that received the burst of UDP packets is the one that was
        opened. It seems a bit aggressive method to me but it seems to work for
        them. As a result, Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa came up with a
        new NAT mode to fully randomize ports using prandom.
      
      * Add a new classifier to x_tables based on the socket net_cls set via
        cgroups. These includes two patches to prepare the field as requested by
        Zefan Li. Also from Daniel Borkmann.
      
      * Use prandom instead of get_random_bytes in several locations of the
        netfilter code, from Florian Westphal.
      
      * Allow to use the CTA_MARK_MASK in ctnetlink when mangling the conntrack
        mark, also from Florian Westphal.
      
      * Fix compilation warning due to unused variable in IPVS, from Geert
        Uytterhoeven.
      
      * Add support for UID/GID via nfnetlink_queue, from Valentina Giusti.
      
      * Add IPComp extension to x_tables, from Fan Du.
