nl80211: Use different attrs for BSSID and random MAC addr in scan req
NL80211_ATTR_MAC was used to set both the specific BSSID to be scanned
and the random MAC address to be used when privacy is enabled. When both
the features are enabled, both the BSSID and the local MAC address were
getting same value causing Probe Request frames to go with unintended
DA. Hence, this has been fixed by using a different NL80211_ATTR_BSSID
attribute to set the specific BSSID (which was the more recent addition
in cfg80211) for a scan.
Backwards compatibility with old userspace software is maintained to
some extent by allowing NL80211_ATTR_MAC to be used to set the specific
BSSID when scanning without enabling random MAC address use.
Scanning with random source MAC address was introduced by commit ad2b26abc157 ("cfg80211: allow drivers to support random MAC addresses
for scan") and the issue was introduced with the addition of the second
user for the same attribute in commit 818965d39177 ("cfg80211: Allow a
scan request for a specific BSSID").

Allan W. Nielsen says:
====================
Adding PHY-Tunables and downshift support
(This is a re-post of the v3 patch set with a new cover letter - I was not
aware that the cover letters was used a commit comments in merge commits).
This series add support for PHY tunables, and uses this facility to
configure downshifting. The downshifting mechanism is implemented for MSCC
phys.
This series tries to address the comments provided back in mid October when
this feature was posted along with fast-link-failure. Fast-link-failure has
been separated out, but we would like to pick continue on that if/when we
agree on how the phy-tunables and downshifting should be done.
The proposed generic interface is similar to
ETHTOOL_GTUNABLE/ETHTOOL_STUNABLE, it uses the same type
(ethtool_tunable/tunable_type_id) but a new enum (phy_tunable_id) is added
to reflect the PHY tunable.
The implementation just call the newly added function pointers in
get_tunable/set_tunable phy_device structure.
To configure downshifting, the ethtool_tunable structure is used. 'id' must
be set to 'ETHTOOL_PHY_DOWNSHIFT', 'type_id' must be set to
'ETHTOOL_TUNABLE_U8' and 'data' value configure the amount of downshift
re-tries.
If configured to DOWNSHIFT_DEV_DISABLE, then downshift is disabled If
configured to DOWNSHIFT_DEV_DEFAULT_COUNT, then it is up to the device to
choose a device-specific re-try count.
Tested on Beaglebone Black with VSC 8531 PHY.
Change set:
v0:
- Link Speed downshift and Fast Link failure-2 features coded by using
Device tree.
v1:
- Split the Downshift and FLF2 features in different set of patches.
- Removed DT access and implemented IOCTL access suggested by Andrew.
- Added function pointers in get_tunable/set_tunable phy_device structure
v2:
- Added trace message with a hist is printed when downshifting clould not
be eanbled with the requested count
- (ethtool) Syntax is changed from "--set-phy-tunable downshift on|off|%d"
to "--set-phy-tunable [downshift on|off [count N]]" - as requested by
Andrew.

netns: make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned int
Make struct pernet_operations::id unsigned.
There are 2 reasons to do so:
1)
This field is really an index into an zero based array and
thus is unsigned entity. Using negative value is out-of-bound
access by definition.
2)
On x86_64 unsigned 32-bit data which are mixed with pointers
via array indexing or offsets added or subtracted to pointers
are preffered to signed 32-bit data.
"int" being used as an array index needs to be sign-extended
to 64-bit before being used.
void f(long *p, int i)
{
g(p[i]);
}
roughly translates to
movsx rsi, esi
mov rdi, [rsi+...]
call g
MOVSX is 3 byte instruction which isn't necessary if the variable is
unsigned because x86_64 is zero extending by default.
Now, there is net_generic() function which, you guessed it right, uses
"int" as an array index:
static inline void *net_generic(const struct net *net, int id)
{
...
ptr = ng->ptr[id - 1];
...
}
And this function is used a lot, so those sign extensions add up.
Patch snipes ~1730 bytes on allyesconfig kernel (without all junk
messing with code generation):
Unfortunately some functions actually grow bigger.
This is a semmingly random artefact of code generation with register
allocator being used differently. gcc decides that some variable
needs to live in new r8+ registers and every access now requires REX
prefix. Or it is shifted into r12, so [r12+0] addressing mode has to be
used which is longer than [r8]
However, overall balance is in negative direction:

RDS: TCP: Force every connection to be initiated by numerically smaller IP address
When 2 RDS peers initiate an RDS-TCP connection simultaneously,
there is a potential for "duelling syns" on either/both sides.
See commit 241b271952eb ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an
outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()") for a description of this
condition, and the arbitration logic which ensures that the
numerically large IP address in the TCP connection is bound to the
RDS_TCP_PORT ("canonical ordering").
The rds_connection should not be marked as RDS_CONN_UP until the
arbitration logic has converged for the following reason. The sender
may start transmitting RDS datagrams as soon as RDS_CONN_UP is set,
and since the sender removes all datagrams from the rds_connection's
cp_retrans queue based on TCP acks. If the TCP ack was sent from
a tcp socket that got reset as part of duel aribitration (but
before data was delivered to the receivers RDS socket layer),
the sender may end up prematurely freeing the datagram, and
the datagram is no longer reliably deliverable.
This patch remedies that condition by making sure that, upon
receipt of 3WH completion state change notification of TCP_ESTABLISHED
in rds_tcp_state_change, we mark the rds_connection as RDS_CONN_UP
if, and only if, the IP addresses and ports for the connection are
canonically ordered. In all other cases, rds_tcp_state_change will
force an rds_conn_path_drop(), and rds_queue_reconnect() on
both peers will restart the connection to ensure canonical ordering.
A side-effect of enforcing this condition in rds_tcp_state_change()
is that rds_tcp_accept_one_path() can now be refactored for simplicity.

RDS: TCP: Track peer's connection generation number
The RDS transport has to be able to distinguish between
two types of failure events:
(a) when the transport fails (e.g., TCP connection reset)
but the RDS socket/connection layer on both sides stays
the same
(b) when the peer's RDS layer itself resets (e.g., due to module
reload or machine reboot at the peer)
In case (a) both sides must reconnect and continue the RDS messaging
without any message loss or disruption to the message sequence numbers,
and this is achieved by rds_send_path_reset().
In case (b) we should reset all rds_connection state to the
new incarnation of the peer. Examples of state that needs to
be reset are next expected rx sequence number from, or messages to be
retransmitted to, the new incarnation of the peer.
To achieve this, the RDS handshake probe added as part of
commit 5916e2c1554f ("RDS: TCP: Enable multipath RDS for TCP")
is enhanced so that sender and receiver of the RDS ping-probe
will add a generation number as part of the RDS_EXTHDR_GEN_NUM
extension header. Each peer stores local and remote generation
numbers as part of each rds_connection. Changes in generation
number will be detected via incoming handshake probe ping
request or response and will allow the receiver to reset rds_connection
state.

sctp: use new rhlist interface on sctp transport rhashtable
Now sctp transport rhashtable uses hash(lport, dport, daddr) as the key
to hash a node to one chain. If in one host thousands of assocs connect
to one server with the same lport and different laddrs (although it's
not a normal case), all the transports would be hashed into the same
chain.
It may cause to keep returning -EBUSY when inserting a new node, as the
chain is too long and sctp inserts a transport node in a loop, which
could even lead to system hangs there.
The new rhlist interface works for this case that there are many nodes
with the same key in one chain. It puts them into a list then makes this
list be as a node of the chain.
This patch is to replace rhashtable_ interface with rhltable_ interface.

this fix when inserting a node, the reinsert loop is also removed here.

This patch adds preemptiom points in sk_busy_loop(),

A new flag is added into napi->state : NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL

configurations with large number of NIC queues.
This should allow experimenting with bigger delays without

supports up to 4 tx queues.
Benefits are better utilization of multi core cpus and the usage of the
msi-x support by default which splits the handling of rx / tx and misc
other interrupts.
The rx path is a little bit harder because apparently (based on the limited
information from the downstream driver) the hardware supports up to 8 rss
queues but only has one hardware descriptor ring on the rx side. So the rx
path will be part of another patchset.
Tested on my AR8161 ethernet adapter with different tests:
- there are no regressions observed during my daily usage
- iperf tcp and udp tests shows no performance regressions
- netperf TCP_RR and UDP_RR shows a slight performance increase of about
1-2% with this patchset applied
This work is based on the downstream driver at github.com/qca/alx
Changes in V2:
- drop unneeded casts in alx_alloc_rx_ring (Patch 1)
- add additional information about testing and benefit to the
changelog
