mwifiex: toggle carrier state in start_ap/stop_ap.
In uap mode the carrier is not enabled until after the first STA joins.
The carrier triggers the bridge to start its state machine, and if STP
is enabled, it takes 4 seconds as it transitions from disabled to
forwarding. During this time the bridge drops all traffic, and the EAPOL
handshake times out after 3 seconds, preventing stations from joining.
Follow the logic used in mac80211 and start the carrier in start_ap
and disable it in stop_ap. This has a nice benefit of allowing the
first station connection time to be reduced by up to 75% when STP is
in use.

wcn36xx: introduce per-channel ring buffer locks
wcn36xx implements a ring buffer for transmitted frames for each
(high and low priority) DMA channel. The ring buffers are lockless:
new frames are inserted at the head of the queue, while finished
packets are reaped from the tail.
Unfortunately, the list manipulations are missing any kind of barriers
so are susceptible to various races: for example, a TX completion
handler might read an updated desc->ctrl before the head has actually
advanced, and then null out the ctl->skb pointer while it is still
being used in the TX path.
Simplify things here by adding a spin lock when traversing the ring.
This change increased stability for me without adding any noticeable
overhead on my platform (xperia z).

seccomp, ptrace: add support for dumping seccomp filters
This patch adds support for dumping a process' (classic BPF) seccomp
filters via ptrace.
PTRACE_SECCOMP_GET_FILTER allows the tracer to dump the user's classic BPF
seccomp filters. addr should be an integer which represents the ith seccomp
filter (0 is the most recently installed filter). data should be a struct
sock_filter * with enough room for the ith filter, or NULL, in which case
the filter is not saved. The return value for this command is the number of
BPF instructions the program represents, or negative in the case of errors.
Command specific errors are ENOENT: which indicates that there is no ith
filter in this seccomp tree, and EMEDIUMTYPE, which indicates that the ith
filter was not installed as a classic BPF filter.
A caveat with this approach is that there is no way to get explicitly at
the heirarchy of seccomp filters, and users need to memcmp() filters to
decide which are inherited. This means that a task which installs two of
the same filter can potentially confuse users of this interface.
v2: * make save_orig const
* check that the orig_prog exists (not necessary right now, but when
grows eBPF support it will be)
* s/n/filter_off and make it an unsigned long to match ptrace
* count "down" the tree instead of "up" when passing a filter offset
v3: * don't take the current task's lock for inspecting its seccomp mode
* use a 0x42** constant for the ptrace command value
v4: * don't copy to userspace while holding spinlocks
v5: * add another condition to WARN_ON
v6: * rebase on net-next

mpls: reduce memory usage of routes
Nexthops for MPLS routes have a via address field sized for the
largest via address that is expected, which is 32 bytes. This means
that in the most common case of having ipv4 via addresses, 28 bytes of
memory more than required are used per nexthop. In the other common
case of an ipv6 nexthop then 16 bytes more than required are
used. With large numbers of MPLS routes this extra memory usage could
start to become significant.
To avoid allocating memory for a maximum length via address when not
all of it is required and to allow for ease of iterating over
nexthops, then the via addresses are changed to be stored in the same
memory block as the route and nexthops, but in an array after the end
of the array of nexthops. New accessors are provided to retrieve a
pointer to the via address.
To allow for O(1) access without having to store a pointer or offset
per nh, the via address for each nexthop is sized according to the
maximum via address for any nexthop in the route, which is stored in a
new route field, rt_max_alen, but this is in an existing hole in
struct mpls_route so it doesn't increase the size of the
structure. Each via address is ensured to be aligned to VIA_ALEN_ALIGN
to account for architectures that don't allow unaligned accesses.

ethernet (obviously), iscsi, fcoe, roce and iwarp protocols.
The overall driver design includes a common module ('qed') and protocol
specific dependent modules for ethernet ('qede'), fcoe ('qedf'),
iscsi ('qedi') and roce ('qedr').
The common module contains all of the common logic, e.g. initialization,
cleanup, infrastructure for interrupt handling, link management, slowpath
etc. as well as protocol agnostic features, and supplying an abstraction
layer for other modules.
The protocol specific modules can be compiled and operated independently
of each other, with the exception of the rdma modules which are dependent
on the ethernet module, in accordance with the kernel rdma stack design.
This series only adds the core and ethernet modules, with basic L2
capabilities. Future series will add the rest of the modules and enhance
the L2 functionality.

qed: Add module with basic common support
qed: Add basic L2 interface
qede: Add basic Network driver
qed: Add slowpath L2 support
qede: Add basic network device support
qede: Add classification configuration

- Various small fixes according to Dave's suggestions; Largest change
[code-wise] - don't use tabs for indenting function arguments.
From Version 6:
- Reduced the number of arguments for functions with exceptionally
high number of parameters.
From Version 5:
- Style change and fixes [mostly in 1, 4 and 7].
Thanks go to Francois Romieu, a mere mortal. ;-)
From Version 4:
- Drop dependency for x86_64.
From Version 3:
- Limit support of initial submission to x86_64.
- Fix endian problems appearing via sparse [although no BE support yet].
- Fix small issues suggested by the kbuild test robot.
From Version 2:
- Removed U64_{HI,LO}; Using {upper,lower}_32_bits instead.
- Use regular napi weight definition.
- [We still use the __le variants for variables, since we didn't get

1. It's responsible to contain all the common code that will be shared
between the various drivers that would be used with said line of
products. Flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization
fall under this category.
2. It would abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing
the protocol drivers to have a clean APIs which is detached in its
slowpath configuration from the actual HSI.
This adds a very basic module without any protocol-specific bits.
I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under
the first category.

tipc: improve broadcast implementation
The TIPC broadcast link implementation is currently complex and hard to
follow. It also incurs some amount of code and structure duplication,
something that can be reduced significantly with a little effort.
This commit series introduces a number of improvements which address
both the locking structure, the code/structure duplication issue, and
the overall readbility of the code.
The series consists of three main parts:
1-7: Adaptation to the new link structure, and preparation for the next
step. In particular, we want the broadcast transmission link to
have a life cycle that is longer than any of its potential (unicast
and broadcast receive links) users. This eliminates the need to
always test for the presence of this link before accessing it.
8-10: This is what is really new in this series. Commit #9 is by far
the largest and most important one, because it moves most of
the broadcast functionality into link.c, partially reusing the
fields and functionality of the unicast link. The removal of
the "node_map" infrastructure in commit #10 is also an important
achievement.
11-16: Some improvements leveraging the changes made in the previous
commits.
The series needs commit
53387c4e22ac ("tipc: extend broadcast link window size")
and commit
e53567948f82 ("tipc: conditionally expand buffer headroom over udp tunnel")
which are both present in 'net' but not yet in 'net-next', to apply cleanly.

tipc: ensure binding table initial distribution is sent via first link
Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between
two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk"
update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization
message, i.e., via the first link that is established.
This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link
come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well
pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct
initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened.
This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee.
1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the
"active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0.
(This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep
the current, opposite order)
2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when
it sends it binding table updates.
The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should
be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small
fraction of the total traffic.

tipc: introduce jumbo frame support for broadcast
Until now, we have only been supporting a fix MTU size of 1500 bytes

We now make the broadcast MTU adaptable to the carrying media, i.e.,
we use the smallest MTU supported by any of the interfaces attached

tipc: simplify bearer level broadcast
Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast
destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to
have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including
a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers
and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is
also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local
broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to
eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped
multicast in the future.
A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full
set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating
how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol
is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the
nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast
protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the
moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the
retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be
acknowledged by the correct set of destinations.
This commit introduces these changes.

tipc: let broadcast packet reception use new link receive function
The code path for receiving broadcast packets is currently distinct
from the unicast path. This leads to unnecessary code and data
duplication, something that can be avoided with some effort.
We now introduce separate per-peer tipc_link instances for handling
broadcast packet reception. Each receive link keeps a pointer to the
common, single, broadcast link instance, and can hence handle release
and retransmission of send buffers as if they belonged to the own
instance.
Furthermore, we let each unicast link instance keep a reference to both
the pertaining broadcast receive link, and to the common send link.
This makes it possible for the unicast links to easily access data for
broadcast link synchronization, as well as for carrying acknowledges for
received broadcast packets.

tipc: introduce capability bit for broadcast synchronization
Until now, we have tried to support both the newer, dedicated broadcast
synchronization mechanism along with the older, less safe, RESET_MSG/
ACTIVATE_MSG based one. The latter method has turned out to be a hazard
in a highly dynamic cluster, so we find it safer to disable it completely

For this purpose, we now introduce a new capabability bit,
TIPC_BCAST_SYNCH, to inform any peer nodes that dedicated broadcast
syncronization is supported by the present node. The new bit is conveyed
between peers in the 'capabilities' field of neighbor discovery messages.

tipc: make struct tipc_link generic to support broadcast
Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see
that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the
current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast.
The following changes are introduced here:
- A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many
peers need to ack a packet before it can be released.
- A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how
many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released.
- A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer
has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to
start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid
double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of
packets as a result.
- A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts
from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the
transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted
packets on the broadcast media.
When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits,
we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance.

tipc: use explicit allocation of broadcast send link
The broadcast link instance (struct tipc_link) used for sending is

tipc: make link implementation independent from struct tipc_bearer
In reality, the link implementation is already independent from
struct tipc_bearer, in that it doesn't store any reference to it.
However, we still pass on a pointer to a bearer instance in the
function tipc_link_create(), just to have it extract some
initialization information from it.
I later commits, we need to create instances of tipc_link without

want to extract the initialization data already in the creator

tipc: create broadcast transmission link at namespace init
The broadcast transmission link is currently instantiated when the
network subsystem is started, i.e., on order from user space via netlink.
This forces the broadcast transmission code to do unnecessary tests for
the existence of the transmission link, as well in single mode node as
in network mode.
In this commit, we do instead create the link during initialization of
the name space, and remove it when it is stopped. The fact that the

tipc: move bcast definitions to bcast.c
Currently, a number of structure and function definitions related
to the broadcast functionality are unnecessarily exposed in the file
bcast.h. This obscures the fact that the external interface towards
the broadcast link in fact is very narrow, and causes unnecessary
recompilations of other files when anything changes in those
definitions.
In this commit, we move as many of those definitions as is currently
possible to the file bcast.c.
We also rename the structure 'tipc_bclink' to 'tipc_bc_base', both
since the name does not correctly describe the contents of this
struct, and will do so even less in the future, and because we want
to use the term 'link' more appropriately in the functionality
introduced later in this series.

or PFC packets out on the wire. Also fixed a bug in debugfs by grabbing
the filter list lock before adding or deleting a filter.
Akeem fixes an issue where we were unconditionally returning VEB bridge
mode before allowing LB in the add VSI routine, resolve by checking if
the bridge is actually in VEB mode first.
Mitch fixed an issue where the incorrect structure was being used for
VLAN filter list, which meant the VLAN filter list did not get
processed correctly and VLAN filters would not be re-enabled after any
kind of reset.
Helin fixed a problem of possibly getting inconsistent flow control
status after a PF reset. The issue was requested_mode was being set
with a default value during probe, but the hardware state could be a
different value from this mode.
Carolyn fixed a problem where the driver output of the OEM version
string varied from the other tools.
Jean Sacren fixes up kernel documentation by fixing function header
comments to match actual variables used in the functions. Also
cleaned up variable initialization, when the variable would be
over-written immediately.

Change the selection of a multipath route to use a flow-based
hash. This more suitable for traffic sensitive to reordering within a
flow (e.g. TCP, L2VPN) and whilst still allowing a good distribution
of traffic given enough flows.
Selection of the path for a multipath route is done using a hash of:
1. Label stack up to MAX_MP_SELECT_LABELS labels or up to and
including entropy label, whichever is first.
2. 3-tuple of (L3 src, L3 dst, proto) from IPv4/IPv6 header in MPLS
payload, if present.
Naturally, a 5-tuple hash using L4 information in addition would be
possible and be better in some scenarios, but there is a tradeoff
between looking deeper into the packet to achieve good distribution,
and packet forwarding performance, and I have erred on the side of the
latter as the default.

Merge branch 'mdiobus_nested_read_write'
Neil Armstrong says:
====================
Refactor nested mdiobus read/write functions
In order to avoid locked signal false positive for nested mdiobus
read/write calls, nested code was introduced in mv88e6xxx and
mdio-mux.
But mv88e6060 also needs such nested mdiobus read/write calls.
For sake of refactoring, introduce nested variants of mdiobus read/write
and make them used by mv88e6xxx and mv88e6060.
In a next patch, mdio-mux should also use these variant calls.

net: dsa: Make mv88e6060 use nested mdiobus read/write
Like mv88e6xxx and mdio-mux, to avoid lockdep give false positives
because of nested MDIO busses, switch to previously introduced
nested mdiobus_read/write variants.

ixgbe, ixgbevf: Add new mbox API xcast mode
The limitation of the number of multicast address for VF is not enough
for the large scale server with SR-IOV feature. IPv6 requires the multicast
MAC address for each IP address to handle the Neighbor Solicitation
message. We couldn't assign over 30 IPv6 addresses to a single VF.
This patch introduces the new mailbox API, IXGBE_VF_UPDATE_XCAST_MODE,
to update multicast mode of VF. This adds 3 modes;
- NONE only L2 exact match addresses or Flow Director enabled
- MULTI BAM and ROMPE set
- ALLMULTI BAM, ROMPE and MPE set
If a guest VF user wants over 30 MAC multicast addresses, set IFF_ALLMULTI
to request PF to update xcast mode to enable VF multicast promiscuous mode.
On the other hand, enabling VF multicast promiscuous mode may affect
security and performance in the network of the NIC. Only trusted VF can
enable multicast promiscuous mode. The behavior of untrusted VF is the
same as previous version.

ixgbe: Add new ndo to trust VF
Implements the new netdev op to trust VF in ixgbe.
The administrator can turn on and off VF trusted by ip command which
supports trust message.
# ip link set dev eth0 vf 1 trust on
or
# ip link set dev eth0 vf 1 trust off
Send a ping to reset VF on changing the status of trusting.
VF driver will reconfigure its features on reset.

drivers: net: cpsw: use module_platform_driver
There is no reasons to probe cpsw from late_initcall level
and it's not recommended. Hence, use module_platform_driver()
to register and probe cpsw driver from module_init() level.
