This test is split in two, the first part checks if a report creates a corresponding mdb entry and if traffic is properly forwarded to it, and the second part checks if the mdb entry is deleted after a leave and if traffic is *not* forwarded to it. Since the mcast querier is enabled we should see standard mcast snooping bridge behaviour. Signed-off-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Mario Limonciello says: ==================== r8152: Support runtime changes of vendor mac passthu policy On some platforms ACPI method `\\_SB.AMAC` is dynamic and changes to it can influence changing the behavior of MAC pass through and what MAC address is used. When running USB reset, re-read the MAC address to use to support tools that change the policy. This is quite similar to using `SIOCSIFHWADDR` except that the actual MAC to use comes from ASL rather than from userspace. Changes from v1: * Remove an extra unneeded `ether_addr_copy` call * Use `dev_set_mac_address` to ensure all notifiers are called * Shuffle functions to allow code re-use. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On some platforms it is possible to dynamically change the policy of what MAC address is selected from the ASL at runtime. These tools will reset the USB device and expect the change to be made immediately. Signed-off-by: Mario Limonciello <mario.limonciello@dell.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The non-null check on tskb is always false because it is in an else path of a check on tskb and hence tskb is null in this code block.

Jerome Brunet says: ==================== net: phy: add Amlogic g12a support This patchset adds the necessary bits to support network on the Amlogic g12a SoC family. Only the internal PHY and related MDIO mux needed to be addressed. The GMAC remains compatible with axg SoC family This series has been tested on the u200 (S905D2) with both the internal and external (Realtek) PHYs. Change since v2 [1]: * Change 'clk part' Reviewed-by as suggested * Remove default callback from phy drivers * Use exact match PHY macros * Default MDIO g12a as module if ARCH_MESON is enabled * Don't print error on probe defer in the g12a mdio mux Change since v1 [0]: * drop '_' from function name unrelated to locking * fix peripheral clock disable on error * fix variable declaration reverse Xmas trees * fix Kconfig dependency on CCF (Actually needed for 'struct clk_hw', Thx Andrew !) * Minor fix in the DT exemple as reported by Rob [0] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190314140135.19184-1-jbrunet@baylibre.com [1] https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20190329141512.29867-1-jbrunet@baylibre.com ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The purpose of this change is to align the gxl and g12a driver declaration. Like on the g12a variant, remove genphy_aneg_done() from the driver declaration as the net phy framework will default to it anyway. Also, the gxl phy id should be an exact match as well, so let's change this and use the macro provided.

In contrast to switching rx irq coalescing off what fixed an issue, switching tx irq coalescing off is merely a latency optimization, therefore net-next. As part of this change: - Remove INTT_0 .. INTT_3 constants, they aren't used. - Remove comment in rtl_hw_start_8169(), we now have a detailed description by the code in rtl_set_coalesce(). - Due to switching irq coalescing off per default we don't need the initialization in rtl_hw_start_8168(). If ethtool is used to switch on coalescing then rtl_set_coalesce() will configure this register. For the sake of completeness: This patch just changes the default. Users still have the option to configure irq coalescing via ethtool. Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pull mm/compaction fixes from Mel Gorman: "The merge window for 5.1 introduced a number of compaction-related patches. with intermittent reports of corruption and functional issues. The bugs are due to sloopy checking of zone boundaries and a corner case where invalid indexes are used to access the free lists. Reports are not common but at least two users and 0-day have tripped over them. There is a chance that one of the syzbot reports are related but it has not been confirmed properly. The normal submission path is with Andrew but there have been some delays and I consider them urgent enough that they should be picked up before RC4 to avoid duplicate reports. All of these have been successfully tested on older RC windows. This will make this branch look like a rebase but in fact, they've simply been lifted again from Andrew's tree and placed on a fresh branch. I've no reason to believe that this has invalidated the testing given the lack of change in compaction and the nature of the fixes" * tag 'mm-compaction-5.1-rc4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mel/linux: mm/compaction.c: abort search if isolation fails mm/compaction.c: correct zone boundary handling when resetting pageblock skip hints

The n_r3964 line discipline driver was written in a different time, when SMP machines were rare, and users were trusted to do the right thing. Since then, the world has moved on but not this code, it has stayed rooted in the past with its lovely hand-crafted list structures and loads of "interesting" race conditions all over the place. After attempting to clean up most of the issues, I just gave up and am now marking the driver as BROKEN so that hopefully someone who has this hardware will show up out of the woodwork (I know you are out there!) and will help with debugging a raft of changes that I had laying around for the code, but was too afraid to commit as odds are they would break things. Many thanks to Jann and Linus for pointing out the initial problems in this codebase, as well as many reviews of my attempts to fix the issues. It was a case of whack-a-mole, and as you can see, the mole won.

In commit 0ae955e2656d ("tipc: improve TIPC throughput by Gap ACK blocks"), we enhance the link transmq by releasing as many packets as possible with the multi-ACKs from peer node. This also means the queue is now non-linear and the peer link deferdq becomes vital. Whereas, in the case of link failover, all messages in the link transmq need to be transmitted as tunnel messages in such a way that message sequentiality and cardinality per sender is preserved. This requires us to maintain the link deferdq somehow, so that when the tunnel messages arrive, the inner user messages along with the ones in the deferdq will be delivered to upper layer correctly. The commit accomplishes this by defining a new queue in the TIPC link structure to hold the old link deferdq when link failover happens and process it upon receipt of tunnel messages. Also, in the case of link syncing, the link deferdq will not be purged to avoid unnecessary retransmissions that in the worst case will fail because the packets might have been freed on the sending side.

For unicast transmission, the current NACK sending althorithm is over- active that forces the sending side to retransmit a packet that is not really lost but just arrived at the receiving side with some delay, or even retransmit same packets that have already been retransmitted before. As a result, many duplicates are observed also under normal condition, ie. without packet loss. One example case is: node1 transmits 1 2 3 4 10 5 6 7 8 9, when node2 receives packet #10, it puts into the deferdq. When the packet #5 comes it sends NACK with gap [6 - 9]. However, shortly after that, when packet #6 arrives, it pulls out packet #10 from the deferfq, but it is still out of order, so it makes another NACK with gap [7 - 9] and so on ... Finally, node1 has to retransmit the packets 5 6 7 8 9 a number of times, but in fact all the packets are not lost at all, so duplicates! This commit reduces duplicates by changing the condition to send NACK, also restricting the retransmissions on individual packets via a timer of about 1ms. However, it also needs to say that too tricky condition for NACKs or too long timeout value for retransmissions will result in performance reducing! The criterias in this commit are found to be effective for both the requirements to reduce duplicates but not affect performance. The tipc_link_rcv() is also improved to only dequeue skb from the link deferdq if it is expected (ie. its seqno <= rcv_nxt).

During unicast link transmission, it's observed very often that because of one or a few lost/dis-ordered packets, the sending side will fastly reach the send window limit and must wait for the packets to be arrived at the receiving side or in the worst case, a retransmission must be done first. The sending side cannot release a lot of subsequent packets in its transmq even though all of them might have already been received by the receiving side. That is, one or two packets dis-ordered/lost and dozens of packets have to wait, this obviously reduces the overall throughput! This commit introduces an algorithm to overcome this by using "Gap ACK blocks". Basically, a Gap ACK block will consist of <ack, gap> numbers that describes the link deferdq where packets have been got by the receiving side but with gaps, for example: link deferdq: [1 2 3 4 10 11 13 14 15 20] --> Gap ACK blocks: <4, 5>, <11, 1>, <15, 4>, <20, 0> The Gap ACK blocks will be sent to the sending side along with the traditional ACK or NACK message. Immediately when receiving the message the sending side will now not only release from its transmq the packets ack-ed by the ACK but also by the Gap ACK blocks! So, more packets can be enqueued and transmitted. In addition, the sending side can now do "multi-retransmissions" according to the Gaps reported in the Gap ACK blocks. The new algorithm as verified helps greatly improve the TIPC throughput especially under packet loss condition. So far, a maximum of 32 blocks is quite enough without any "Too few Gap ACK blocks" reports with a 5.0% packet loss rate, however this number can be increased in the furture if needed. Also, the patch is backward compatible.

Unfortunately I've been traveling and didn't have time to actually do that, but since these fix concrete bugs and pass my old set of tests I don't want to delay the fixes any longer. There are four independent fixes here: - A fix for the rv32 port that corrects the 64-bit user accesor's fixup label address. - A fix for a regression introduced during the merge window that broke medlow configurations at run time. This patch also includes a fix that disables ftrace for the same set of functions, which was found by inspection at the same time. - A modification of the memory map to avoid overlapping the FIXMAP and VMALLOC regions on systems with small memory maps. - A fix to the module handling code to use the correct syntax for probing Kconfig entries.

Linux currently disable ECN for incoming connections when the SYN requests ECN and the IP header has ECT(0)/ECT(1) set, as some networks were reportedly mangling the ToS byte, hence could later trigger false congestion notifications. RFC8311 §4.3 relaxes RFC3168's requirements such that ECT can be set one TCP control packets (including SYNs). The main benefit of this is the decreased probability of losing a SYN in a congested ECN-capable network (i.e., it avoids the initial 1s timeout). Additionally, this allows the development of newer TCP extensions, such as AccECN. This patch relaxes the previous check, by enabling ECN on incoming connections using SYN+ECT if at least one bit of the reserved flags of the TCP header is set. Such bit would indicate that the sender of the SYN is using a newer TCP feature than what the host implements, such as AccECN, and is thus implementing RFC8311. This enables end-hosts not supporting such extensions to still negociate ECN, and to have some of the benefits of using ECN on control packets.
