      Some further updates for net-next:
       * fix network-manager which was broken by the previous changes
       * fix delete-station events, which were broken by me making the
         genlmsg_end() mistake
       * fix a timer left running during suspend in some race conditions
         that would cause an annoying (but harmless) warning
       * (less important, but in the tree already) remove 80+80 MHz rate
         reporting since the spec doesn't distinguish it from 160 MHz;
         as the bitrate they're both 160 MHz bandwidth

      phonet netlink: allow multiple messages per skb in route dump · 926e9878
      Johannes Berg authored
      My previous patch to this file changed the code to be bug-compatible
      towards userspace. Unless userspace (which I wasn't able to find)
      implements the dump reader by hand in a wrong way, this isn't needed.
      If it uses libnl or similar code putting multiple messages into a
      single SKB is far more efficient.
      
      Change the code to do this. While at it, also clean it up and don't
      use so many variables - just store the address in the callback args
      directly.

      net: sched: Introduce connmark action · 22a5dc0e
      Felix Fietkau authored
      This tc action allows you to retrieve the connection tracking mark
      This action has been used heavily by openwrt for a few years now.
      
      There are known limitations currently:
      
      doesn't work for initial packets, since we only query the ct table.
        Fine given use case is for returning packets
      
      no implicit defrag.
        frags should be rare so fix later..
      
      won't work for more complex tasks, e.g. lookup of other extensions
        since we have no means to store results
      
      we still have a 2nd lookup later on via normal conntrack path.
      This shouldn't break anything though since skb->nfct isn't altered.
      
      V2:
      remove unnecessary braces (Jiri)
      change the action identifier to 14 (Jiri)
      Fix some stylistic issues caught by checkpatch
      V3:
      Move module params to bottom (Cong)
      Get rid of tcf_hashinfo_init and friends and conform to newer API (Cong)

      net: DSA fixes for bridge and ip-autoconf
      
      These two patches address some real world use cases of the DSA master and slave
      network devices.
      
      You have already seen patch 1 previously and you rejected it since my
      explanations were not good enough to provide a justification as to why it is
      useful, hopefully this time my explanation is better.
      
      Patch 2 solves a different, yet very real problem as well at the bridge layer
      when using DSA network devices.

      net: bridge: reject DSA-enabled master netdevices as bridge members · 8db0a2ee
      Florian Fainelli authored
      DSA-enabled master network devices with a switch tagging protocol should
      strip the protocol specific format before handing the frame over to
      higher layer.
      
      When adding such a DSA master network device as a bridge member, we go
      through the following code path when receiving a frame:
      
      __netif_receive_skb_core
      	-> first ptype check against ptype_all is not returning any
      	   handler for this skb
      
      	-> check and invoke rx_handler:
      		-> deliver frame to the bridge layer: br_handle_frame
      
      DSA registers a ptype handler with the fake ETH_XDSA ethertype, which is
      called *after* the bridge-layer rx_handler has run. br_handle_frame()
      tries to parse the frame it received from the DSA master network device,
      and will not be able to match any of its conditions and jumps straight
      at the end of the end of br_handle_frame() and returns
      RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED there.
      
      Since we returned RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED, __netif_receive_skb_core() stops
      RX processing for this frame and returns NET_RX_SUCCESS, so we never get
      a chance to call our switch tag packet processing logic and deliver
      frames to the DSA slave network devices, and so we do not get any
      functional bridge members at all.
      
      Instead of cluttering the bridge receive path with DSA-specific checks,
      and rely on assumptions about how __netif_receive_skb_core() is
      processing frames, we simply deny adding the DSA master network device
      (conduit interface) as a bridge member, leaving only the slave DSA
      network devices to be bridge members, since those will work correctly in
      all circumstances.

      net: ipv4: handle DSA enabled master network devices · 728c0208
      Florian Fainelli authored
      The logic to configure a network interface for kernel IP
      auto-configuration is very simplistic, and does not handle the case
      where a device is stacked onto another such as with DSA. This causes the
      kernel not to open and configure the master network device in a DSA
      switch tree, and therefore slave network devices using this master
      network devices as conduit device cannot be open.
      
      This restriction comes from a check in net/dsa/slave.c, which is
      basically checking the master netdev flags for IFF_UP and returns
      -ENETDOWN if it is not the case.
      
      Automatically bringing-up DSA master network devices allows DSA slave
      network devices to be used as valid interfaces for e.g: NFS root booting
      by allowing kernel IP autoconfiguration to succeed on these interfaces.
      
      On the reverse path, make sure we do not attempt to close a DSA-enabled
      device as this would implicitely prevent the slave DSA network device
      from operating.

      mii: Handle link state changes for forced modes in mii_check_media() · 5bdc7380
      Ben Hutchings authored
      mii_check_media() does not update the link (carrier) state or log link
      changes when the link mode is forced.  Drivers using the mii library
      must do this themselves, but most of them do not.
      
      Instead of changing them all, provide a sensible default behaviour
      similar to mii_check_link() when the mode is forced.
      
      via-rhine depends on it being a no-op in this case, so make its call
      to mii_check_media() conditional.

      and decided not to productize FCoE on T4 and therefore there
      are no customers that will be impacted by this change. FCoE is

      Please apply on net-next since depends on previous commits.

      ====================
      net: Add Keystone NetCP ethernet driver support
      
      The Network Coprocessor (NetCP) is a hardware accelerator that processes
      Ethernet packets. NetCP has a gigabit Ethernet (GbE) subsystem with a ethernet
      switch sub-module to send and receive packets. NetCP also includes a packet
      accelerator (PA) module to perform packet classification operations such as
      header matching, and packet modification operations such as checksum
      generation. NetCP can also optionally include a Security Accelerator(SA)
      capable of performing IPSec operations on ingress/egress packets.
      
      Keystone SoC's also have a 10 Gigabit Ethernet Subsystem (XGbE) which
      includes a 3-port Ethernet switch sub-module capable of 10Gb/s and
      1Gb/s rates per Ethernet port.
      
      Both GBE and XGBE network processors supported using common driver. It
      is also designed to handle future variants of NetCP.
      
      version history
      ---------------
      v7->v8
      
       - Reworked comments against v7, related to checker warning.
       - Patch 2/4 that has all of the driver code in v7 is now split into 3
         patches based on functionality so that we have 3 smaller patches
         review instead of a big patch.
       - Patch for MAINTAINER is merged to 2/4 along with netcp core driver
       - Separate patch (3/4) for 1G and  (4/4) for 10G
       - Removed big endian support for initial version (will add it later)
      
      v6->v7
       - Fixed some minor documentation error and also modified the netcp driver
         to fix the set* functions to include correct le/be macros.
      
      v5->v6
       - updated version after incorporating comments [6] from David Miller,
         David Laight & Geert Uytterhoeven on v5. I would like get this in
         for v3.19 merge window if the latest version is acceptable.
      
      v4->v5
       - Sorry to spin v5 quickly but I missed few check-patch warnings which
         were pointed by Joe Perches(thanks). I folded his changes [5] along with
         few more check-patch warning fixes. I would like get this in for v3.18
         merge window if David is happy with this version.
      
      v3->v4
       - Couple of fixes in in error path as pointed [4] out by David. Rest of
         the patches are unchanged from v3.
      
      v2->v3
       - Update v3 after incorporating Jamal and David Miller's comment/suggestion
         from earlier versions [1] [2].  After per the discussion here [3], the
         controversial custom exports have been dropped now. And for future
         future offload support additions, we will plug into generic frameworks
         as an when they are available.
