e12b453904 bonding: fix to rejoin multicast groups immediately
The IGMP specs states that if the system receives a
membership report, it shouldn't send another for the
next minute. However, if a link failure happens right
after that, the backup slave and the switch connected
to this slave will not know about the multicast and
the traffic will hang for about a minute.

This patch fixes it to rejoin multicast groups immediately
after a failover restoring the multicast traffic.

3f66116e89 AF_UNIX: Implement SO_TIMESTAMP and SO_TIMETAMPNS on Unix sockets
Userspace applications can already request to receive timestamps with:
setsockopt(sockfd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_TIMESTAMP, ...)

Although setsockopt() returns zero (success), timestamps are not added to the
ancillary data. This patch fixes that on SOCK_DGRAM and SOCK_SEQPACKET Unix
sockets.

d6bf781712 net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table
David

This is the first step for RCU conversion of neigh code.

Next patches will convert hash_buckets[] and "struct neighbour" to RCU
protected objects.

Thanks

[PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table

Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct
neigh_table", a new structure is defined :

struct neigh_hash_table {
       struct neighbour        **hash_buckets;
       unsigned int            hash_mask;
       __u32                   hash_rnd;
       struct rcu_head         rcu;
};

And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a
neigh_hash_table.

This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a
third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not
anymore a neigh_table field.

caf586e5f2 net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counter
In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we
drop it before it enters protocol stack :
- softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat)
- bad vlan tag (not accounted)
- unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted)

We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level,
and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so
that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev)

This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped
accounting), thus reverting it.

c7d4426a98 net: introduce DST_NOCACHE flag
While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue
devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in
neighbour code.

When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high
performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the
neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on
hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test())

But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only
once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache
lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock.

Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not
inserted in route cache.

With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour,
results are :

51e97a12be sctp: Fix out-of-bounds reading in sctp_asoc_get_hmac()
The sctp_asoc_get_hmac() function iterates through a peer's hmac_ids
array and attempts to ensure that only a supported hmac entry is
returned.  The current code fails to do this properly - if the last id
in the array is out of range (greater than SCTP_AUTH_HMAC_ID_MAX), the
id integer remains set after exiting the loop, and the address of an
out-of-bounds entry will be returned and subsequently used in the parent
function, causing potentially ugly memory corruption.  This patch resets
the id integer to 0 on encountering an invalid id so that NULL will be
returned after finishing the loop if no valid ids are found.

d7e0d19aa0 sctp: prevent reading out-of-bounds memory
Two user-controlled allocations in SCTP are subsequently dereferenced as
sockaddr structs, without checking if the dereferenced struct members fall
beyond the end of the allocated chunk.  There doesn't appear to be any
information leakage here based on how these members are used and
additional checking, but it's still worth fixing.

c5d3557103 Revert "ipv4: Make INET_LRO a bool instead of tristate."
This reverts commit e81963b180.

LRO is now deprecated in favour of GRO, and only a few drivers use it,
so it is desirable to build it as a module in distribution kernels.

The original change to prevent building it as a module was made in an
attempt to avoid the case where some dependents are set to y and some
to m, and INET_LRO can be set to m rather than y.  However, the
Kconfig system will reliably set INET_LRO=y in this case.

482964e56e net: Fix the condition passed to sk_wait_event()
This patch fixes the condition (3rd arg) passed to sk_wait_event() in
sk_stream_wait_memory(). The incorrect check in sk_stream_wait_memory()
causes the following soft lockup in tcp_sendmsg() when the global tcp

>>> snip <<<

What is happening is, that the sk_wait_event() condition passed from
sk_stream_wait_memory() evaluates to true for the case of tcp global memory
exhaustion. This is because both sk_stream_memory_free() and vm_wait are true
which causes sk_wait_event() to *not* call schedule_timeout().
Hence sk_stream_wait_memory() returns immediately to the caller w/o sleeping.
This causes the caller to again try allocation, which again fails and again
calls sk_stream_wait_memory(), and so on.

bfa5ae63b8 net: rename netdev rx_queue to ingress_queue
There is some confusion with rx_queue name after RPS, and net drivers
private rx_queue fields.

I suggest to rename "struct net_device"->rx_queue to ingress_queue.

8560f2266b ip6tnl: percpu stats accounting
Maintain per_cpu tx_bytes, tx_packets, rx_bytes, rx_packets.

Other seldom used fields are kept in netdev->stats structure, possibly
unsafe.

This is a preliminary work to support lockless transmit path, and
correct RX stats, that are already unsafe.

ab79ad14a2 ipv6: Implement Any-IP support for IPv6.
AnyIP is the capability to receive packets and establish incoming
connections on IPs we have not explicitly configured on the machine.

An example use case is to configure a machine to accept all incoming
traffic on eth0, and leave the policy of whether traffic for a given IP
should be delivered to the machine up to the load balancer.

Can be setup as follows:
  ip -6 rule from all iif eth0 lookup 200
  ip -6 route add local default dev lo table 200
(in this case for all IPv6 addresses)

4465b46900 ipv4: Allow configuring subnets as local addresses
This patch allows a host to be configured to respond to any address in
a specified range as if it were local, without actually needing to
configure the address on an interface.  This is done through routing
table configuration.  For instance, to configure a host to respond
to any address in 10.1/16 received on eth0 as a local address we can do:

ip rule add from all iif eth0 lookup 200
ip route add local 10.1/16 dev lo proto kernel scope host src 127.0.0.1 table 200

This host is now reachable by any 10.1/16 address (route lookup on
input for packets received on eth0 can find the route).  On output, the
rule will not be matched so that this host can still send packets to
10.1/16 (not sent on loopback).  Presumably, external routing can be
configured to make sense out of this.

To make this work, we needed to modify the logic in finding the
interface which is assigned a given source address for output
(dev_ip_find).  We perform a normal fib_lookup instead of just a
lookup on the local table, and in the lookup we ignore the input
interface for matching.

This patch is useful to implement IP-anycast for subnets of virtual
addresses.

The GRE tunnel driver needs to invoke icmpv6 helpers in the
ipv6 stack when ipv6 support is enabled.

Therefore if IPV6 is enabled, we have to enforce that GRE's
enabling (modular or static) matches that of ipv6.

4d22f7d372 net-2.6: SYN retransmits: Add new parameter to retransmits_timed_out()
Fixes kernel Bugzilla Bug 18952

This patch adds a syn_set parameter to the retransmits_timed_out()
routine and updates its callers. If not set, TCP_RTO_MIN is taken
as the calculation basis as before. If set, TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT is
used instead, so that sysctl_syn_retries represents the actual
amount of SYN retransmissions in case no SYNACKs are received when
establishing a new connection.

f2176d7240 mac80211: Fix WMM driver queue configuration
The WMM parameter configuration function (ieee80211_sta_wmm_params) only
configures the WMM parameters to the driver is the wmm_last_param_set
counter value is changed by the AP.

The wmm_last_param_set is initialized to -1 on association in order to ensure
the configuration is made to the driver at least once on association, but
currently this initialization is done *after* the WMM parameter configuration
function was called.

This leads to unreliability in the driver getting properly configured on first
association (depending on what counter value the AP happens to use.) When
disassociating (the wmm default parameters are configured to the driver) and
then reassociating, due to the above the WMM configuration is not set to the
driver at all.

On drivers without beacon filtering the problem is corrected by later beacons,
but on drivers with beacon filtering the WMM will remain permanently incorrectly
configured.

Fix this by moving the initialization of wmm_last_param_set to -1 before
ieee80211_sta_wmm_params is called on association.
