Add the base infrastructure and UAPI for netlink extended ACK reporting. All "manual" calls to netlink_ack() pass NULL for now and thus don't get extended ACK reporting. Big thanks goes to Pablo Neira Ayuso for not only bringing up the whole topic at netconf (again) but also coming up with the nlattr passing trick and various other ideas. Signed-off-by:

When link transitions from LINK_FAIL to LINK_UP, the commit phase is not called. This leads to an erroneous state causing slave-link state to get stuck in "going down" state while its speed and duplex are perfectly fine. This issue is a side-effect of splitting link-set into propose and commit phases introduced by de77ecd4 ("bonding: improve link-status update in mii-monitoring") This patch fixes these issues by calling commit phase whenever link state change is proposed.

1. Don't get the metric RTAX_ADVMSS of dst. There are two reasons. 1) Its caller dst_metric_advmss has already invoke dst_metric_advmss before invoke default_advmss. 2) The ipv4_default_advmss is used to get the default mss, it should not try to get the metric like ip6_default_advmss. 2. Use sizeof(tcphdr)+sizeof(iphdr) instead of literal 40. 3. Define one new macro IPV4_MAX_PMTU instead of 65535 according to RFC 2675, section 5.1. Signed-off-by:

David Ahern says: ==================== rtnetlink: Cleanup user notifications for netdev events Vlad's recent patch to add the event type to rtnetlink notifications points out a number of redundant or unnecessary notifications sent to userspace for events that are essentially internal to the kernel. Trim the list to put a dent in the notification storm. v2 - rebased to top of net-next with IFLA_EVENT patch reverted - dropped removal NETDEV_CHANGEINFODATA since it is intentionally only to send a message to userspace - dropped NOTIFY_PEERS since Vlad's says it is needed for macvlans - add patches to remove NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER and NETDEV_CHANGE_TX_QUEUE_LEN from the event list ==================== Signed-off-by: -

When debugging the JIT on an embedded platform or cross build environment, libbfd may not be available, making it impossible to run bpf_jit_disasm natively. Add an option to emit a binary image of the JIT code to a file. This file can then be disassembled off line. Typical usage in this case might be (pasting mips64 dmesg output to cat command): $ cat > jit.raw $ bpf_jit_disasm -f jit.raw -O jit.bin $ mips64-linux-gnu-objdump -D -b binary -m mips:isa64r2 -EB jit.bin Signed-off-by:

Field FL/TPL in register TDES3 is not correctly set on GMAC4. TX appears to be functional on GMAC 4.10a even if this field is not set, however, to avoid relying on undefined behavior, set the length in TDES3. The field has a different meaning depending on if the TSE bit in TDES3 is set or not (TSO). However, regardless of the TSE bit, the field is not optional. The field is already set correctly when the TSE bit is set. Since there is no limit for the number of descriptors that can be used for a single packet, the field should be set to the sum of the buffers contained in: [<desc with First Descriptor bit set> ... <desc n> ... <desc with Last Descriptor bit set>], which should be equal to skb->len.

Russell King says: ==================== mvmdio updates This series of patches update mvmdio for Armada 8k CP110. A number of issues were found: 1. The driver fails to disable an interrupt when something goes wrong in the probe function. 2. The interrupt is specified in DT to be optional, but the driver unconditionally writes to the interrupt mask register, which may not exist. 3. The DT binding specifies "reg: address and length of the SMI register" however, when supporting the interrupt, the size must cover the interrupt register as well. Update the binding documentation with this information that was previously omitted. 4. If the register size is too small, have the driver print an error and disable use of the interrupt. 5. Armada 8k needs three clocks for the MDIO interface, otherwise the SoC hangs (since it is part of one of the ethernet interfaces.) GOP clock, MG core clock and MG clock are needed on 8k. Augment the binding and driver to allow three clocks to be specified. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Disable the MDIO interrupt, falling back to polled mode, if the resource size does not allow us to access the interrupt registers. All current DT bindings use a size of 0x84, which allows access, but verifying it is good practice. Signed-off-by:

The pre-existing write to disable interrupts on the remove path happens whether we have an interrupt or not. While this may seem to be a good idea, this driver is re-used in many different implementations, some where the binding only specifies four bytes of register space. This access causes us to access registers outside of the binding. Make it conditional on the interrupt being present, which is the same condition used when enabling the interrupt in the first place.

When the mvmdio driver has an interrupt, it enables the "done" interrupt after requesting its interrupt handler. However, probe failure results in the interrupt being left enabled. Disable it on the failure path. Signed-off-by:

A driver may use build_skb() for received packets. These SKBs then have a head_frag. Since commit d7e8883c ("net: make GRO aware of skb->head_frag"), GRO may build frag_list SKBs out of head_frag received SKBs. In such a case, the chained SKBs end up with a head_frag. Commit 07b26c94 ("gso: Support partial splitting at the frag_list pointer") adds partial segmentation of frag_list SKB chains into individual SKBs. However, this is not done if the chained SKBs have any linear part, because the device may not be able to DMA the private linear buffer. A chained frag_list SKB with head_frag is wrongfully detected in this case as having a private linear part and thus falls back to software GSO, while in fact the linear part is backed by a DMA page just like any other frag. This causes low performance when forwarding those packets that were built with build_skb() Allow partial segmentation at the frag_list pointer for chained SKBs with head_frag. Note that such SKBs can only be created by GRO, when applied to received packets with head_frag. Also note that this change only affects the data path that performs the partial segmentation at frag_list pointer, and not any of the other more common data paths. Signed-off-by:

Benjamin Herrenschmidt says: ==================== ftgmac100: Rework batch 4 - Misc This is v2 of the fourth batch of updates to the ftgmac100 driver. This is a bunch of misc cleanups and fixes, such as properly disabling HW checksum generation on AST2400 where it's known to be broken and some chip init updates. This also adds the ability to turn HW checksum on/off and configure the ring sizes via ethtool. v2 Fixes patch 1/10 (NETIF_F_HW_CSUM conversion) The next (and last) batch will add a few more "features" such as netpoll, multicast/promist, vlan offload... ==================== Signed-off-by: -

We found out that HW checksum generation only works from AST2500 onward. This disables it on AST2400 and removes the "no-hw-checksum" properties in the device-trees. The problem we had wasn't related to NC-SI. Also rework the logic testing for that property so it can be used to disable HW checksum generation and checking regardless of whether NC-SI is used or not in case other variants out there need this.
