      veth: extend device features · 8093315a
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      veth is lacking most modern facilities, like SG, checksums, TSO.

It makes sense to extend dev->features to get them, or GRO aggregation
is defeated by a forced segmentation.

      veth: reduce stat overhead · 2681128f
      Eric Dumazet authored 
      veth stats are a bit bloated. There is no need to account transmit
and receive stats, since they are absolutely symmetric.

Also use a per device atomic64_t for the dropped counter, as it
should never be used in fast path.

      bridge: respect RFC2863 operational state · 576eb625
      stephen hemminger authored 
      The bridge link detection should follow the operational state
of the lower device, rather than the carrier bit. This allows devices
like tunnels that are controlled by userspace control plane to work
with bridge STP link management.

      net: filter: return -EINVAL if BPF_S_ANC* operation is not supported · aa1113d9
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      Currently, we return -EINVAL for malformed or wrong BPF filters.
However, this is not done for BPF_S_ANC* operations, which makes it
more difficult to detect if it's actually supported or not by the
BPF machine. Therefore, we should also return -EINVAL if K is within
the SKF_AD_OFF universe and the ancillary operation did not match.

Why exactly is it needed? If tools such as libpcap/tcpdump want to
make use of new ancillary operations (like filtering VLAN in kernel
space), there is currently no sane way to test if this feature /
BPF_S_ANC* op is present or not, since no error is returned. This
patch will make life easier for that and allow for a proper usage
for user space applications.

There was concern, if this patch will break userland. Short answer: Yes
and no. Long answer: It will "break" only for code that calls ...

  { BPF_LD | BPF_(W|H|B) | BPF_ABS, 0, 0, <K> },

... where <K> is in [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] _and_ <K> is *not* an
ancillary. And here comes the BUT: assuming some *old* code will have
such an instruction where <K> is between [0xfffff000, 0xffffffff] and
it doesn't know ancillary operations, then this will give a
non-expected / unwanted behavior as well (since we do not return the
BPF machine with 0 after a failed load_pointer(), which was the case
before introducing ancillary operations, but load sth. into the
accumulator instead, and continue with the next instruction, for
instance). Thus, user space code would already have been broken by
introducing ancillary operations into the BPF machine per se. Code
that does such a direct load, e.g. "load word at packet offset
0xffffffff into accumulator" ("ld [0xffffffff]") is quite broken,
isn't it? The whole assumption of ancillary operations is that no-one
intentionally calls things like "ld [0xffffffff]" and expect this
word to be loaded from such a packet offset. Hence, we can also safely
make use of this feature testing patch and facilitate application
development. Therefore, at least from this patch onwards, we have
*for sure* a check whether current or in future implemented BPF_S_ANC*
ops are supported in the kernel. Patch was tested on x86_64.

(Thanks to Eric for the previous review.)

      Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

1) GRE tunnel drivers don't set the transport header properly, they also
   blindly deref the inner protocol ipv4 and needs some checks.  Fixes
   from Isaku Yamahata.

2) Fix sleeps while atomic in netdevice rename code, from Eric Dumazet.

3) Fix double-spinlock in solos-pci driver, from Dan Carpenter.

4) More ARP bug fixes.  Fix lockdep splat in arp_solicit() and then the
   bug accidentally added by that fix.  From Eric Dumazet and Cong Wang.

5) Remove some __dev* annotations that slipped back in, as well as all
   HOTPLUG references.  From Greg KH

6) RDS protocol uses wrong interfaces to access scatter-gather elements,
   causing a regression.  From Mike Marciniszyn.

7) Fix build error in cpts driver, from Richard Cochran.
