Netlink messages are appended, one object at a time, to the end of the SKB. Therefore we need to test skb_tail_pointer() not skb->data for alignment. Fixes: 35c58459 ("net: Add helpers for 64-bit aligning netlink attributes.") Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS needs CONFIG_ prefix. Also add a comment in nla_align_64bit() explaining we have to add a padding if current skb->data is aligned, as it certainly can be confusing.

This patch adds a new helper for cls/act programs that can push events to user space applications. For networking, this can be f.e. for sampling, debugging, logging purposes or pushing of arbitrary wake-up events. The idea is similar to a43eec30 ("bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper") and 39111695 ("samples: bpf: add bpf_perf_event_output example"). The eBPF program utilizes a perf event array map that user space populates with fds from perf_event_open(), the eBPF program calls into the helper f.e. as skb_event_output(skb, &my_map, BPF_F_CURRENT_CPU, raw, sizeof(raw)) so that the raw data is pushed into the fd f.e. at the map index of the current CPU. User space can poll/mmap/etc on this and has a data channel for receiving events that can be post-processed. The nice thing is that since the eBPF program and user space application making use of it are tightly coupled, they can define their own arbitrary raw data format and what/when they want to push. While f.e. packet headers could be one part of the meta data that is being pushed, this is not a substitute for things like packet sockets as whole packet is not being pushed and push is only done in a single direction. Intention is more of a generically usable, efficient event pipe to applications. Workflow is that tc can pin the map and applications can attach themselves e.g. after cls/act setup to one or multiple map slots, demuxing is done by the eBPF program. Adding this facility is with minimal effort, it reuses the helper introduced in a43eec30 ("bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper") and we get its functionality for free by overloading its BPF_FUNC_ identifier for cls/act programs, ctx is currently unused, but will be made use of in future. Example will be added to iproute2's BPF example files. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add a BPF_F_CURRENT_CPU flag to optimize the use-case where user space has per-CPU ring buffers and the eBPF program pushes the data into the current CPU's ring buffer which saves us an extra helper function call in eBPF. Also, make sure to properly reserve the remaining flags which are not used.

Add __init attribute on a function that is only called from other __init functions and that is not inlined, at least with gcc version 4.8.4 on an x86 machine with allyesconfig. Currently, the function is put in the .text.unlikely segment. Declaring it as __init will cause it to be put in the .init.text and to disappear after initialization. The result of objdump -x on the function before the change is as follows: 0000000000000000 l F .text.unlikely 00000000000000bf check_mirror And after the change it is as follows: 0000000000000000 l F .init.text 00000000000000ba check_mirror Done with the help of Coccinelle. The semantic patch checks for local static non-init functions that are called from an __init function and are not called from any other function.

Struct ctl_table_header holds pointer to sysctl table which could be used for freeing it after unregistration. IPv4 sysctls already use that.

Since the nlattr header is 4 bytes in size, it can cause the netlink attribute payload to not be 8-byte aligned. This is particularly troublesome for IFLA_STATS64 which contains 64-bit statistic values. Solve this by creating a dummy IFLA_PAD attribute which has a payload which is zero bytes in size. When HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is false, we insert an IFLA_PAD attribute into the netlink response when necessary such that the IFLA_STATS64 payload will be properly aligned. With help and suggestions from Eric Dumazet. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Support VF drivers on Hyper-V. On Hyper-V, each VF instance presented to the guest has an associated synthetic interface that shares the MAC address with the VF instance. Typically these are bonded together to support live migration. By default, the host delivers all the incoming packets on the synthetic interface. Once the VF is up, we need to explicitly switch the data path on the host to divert traffic onto the VF interface. Even after switching the data path, broadcast and multicast packets are always delivered on the synthetic interface and these will have to be injected back onto the VF interface (if VF is up). This patch implements the necessary support in netvsc to support Linux VF drivers. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: factorize switch info This patchset factorizes the mv88e6xxx code by sharing a new extendable info structure to store static data such as switch family, product number, number of ports, number of databases and the name. The next step is to add a "flags" bitmap member to the info structure in order to simplify the shared code with a feature-based logic instead of checking their family/ID. This is a step forward having a single mv88e6xxx driver supporting many similar devices, like any usual Linux driver. Changes v3 -> v4: - constify probed name in DSA - rebase patchset above conflicting commit 48ace4ef Changes v2 -> v3: - update commit messages and add Andrew's tags - keep the info lookup code in a separated function - split the single switch ID reading in probe in a new commit Changes v1 -> v2: - define PORT_SWITCH_ID_PROD_NUM_* values - use plain struct mv88e6xxx_info - remove non used yet ps->rev ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

There is no point in having a special case for the revision when probing a switch model.

Jakub Kicinski says ==================== nfp: cleanups and improvements Main purpose of this set is to get rid of doing potentially long mdelay()s but it also contains some trivial changes I've accumulated. First two patches fix harmless copy-paste errors, next two clean up the documentation and remove unused defines. Patch 5 clarifies the interpretation of RX descriptor fields. Patch 6, by far the biggest, adds ability to perform FW reconfig asynchronously thanks to which we can stop using mdelay(). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jakub Kicinski authored
Some callers of nfp_net_reconfig() are in atomic context so we used to busy wait for commands to complete. In worst case scenario that means locking up a core for up to 5 seconds when a command times out. Lets add a timer-based mechanism of asynchronously checking whether reconfiguration completed successfully for atomic callers to use. Non-atomic callers can now just sleep. The approach taken is quite simple because (1) synchronous reconfigurations always happen under RTNL (or before device is registered); (2) we can coalesce pending reconfigs. There is no need for request queues, timer which eventually takes a look at reconfiguration result to report errors is good enough.

Meaning of data_len and meta_len RX WB descriptor fields is slightly confusing. Add a comment with a diagram clarifying the layout. Also remove the buffer length validation: (a) it's imprecise for static rx-offsets; (b) if firmware is buggy enough to DMA past the end of the buffer WARN_ON_ONCE() doesn't seem like a strong enough response. skb_put() will do the checking for us anyway.
