dp83640: use proper function to free transmit time stamping packets
The previous commit enforces a new rule for handling the cloned packets
for transmit time stamping. These packets must not be freed using any other
function than skb_complete_tx_timestamp. This commit fixes the one and only
driver using this API.
The driver first appeared in v3.0.

ipv6: Do not use routes from locally generated RAs
When hybrid mode is enabled (accept_ra == 2), the kernel also sees RAs
generated locally. This is useful since it allows the kernel to auto-configure
its own interface addresses.
However, if 'accept_ra_defrtr' and/or 'accept_ra_rtr_pref' are set and the
locally generated RAs announce the default route and/or other route information,
the kernel happily inserts bogus routes with its own address as gateway.
With this patch, adding routes from an RA will be skiped when the RAs source
address matches any local address, just as if 'accept_ra_defrtr' and
'accept_ra_rtr_pref' were set to 0.

ipv4: tcp: fix TOS value in ACK messages sent from TIME_WAIT
There is a long standing bug in linux tcp stack, about ACK messages sent
on behalf of TIME_WAIT sockets.
In the IP header of the ACK message, we choose to reflect TOS field of
incoming message, and this might break some setups.
Example of things that were broken :
- Routing using TOS as a selector
- Firewalls
- Trafic classification / shaping
We now remember in timewait structure the inet tos field and use it in
ACK generation, and route lookup.
Notes :
- We still reflect incoming TOS in RST messages.
- We could extend MuraliRaja Muniraju patch to report TOS value in
netlink messages for TIME_WAIT sockets.
- A patch is needed for IPv6

rtnetlink: Add missing manual netlink notification in dev_change_net_namespaces

"rtnetlink: handle rtnl_link netlink notifications manually" was merged
we no longer send a netlink message when a networking device is moved
from one network namespace to another.
Fix this by adding the missing manual notification in dev_change_net_namespaces.
Since all network devices that are processed by dev_change_net_namspaces are
in the initialized state the complicated tests that guard the manual
rtmsg_ifinfo calls in rollback_registered and register_netdevice are
unnecessary and we can just perform a plain notification.

were designed to allow timestamping in PHY devices. The first
function, called during the MAC driver's hard_xmit method, identifies
PTP protocol packets, clones them, and gives them to the PHY device
driver. The PHY driver may hold onto the packet and deliver it at a
later time using the second function, which adds the packet to the
socket's error queue.
As pointed out by Johannes, nothing prevents the socket from
disappearing while the cloned packet is sitting in the PHY driver
awaiting a timestamp. This patch fixes the issue by taking a reference
on the socket for each such packet. In addition, the comments
regarding the usage of these function are expanded to highlight the
rule that PHY drivers must use skb_complete_tx_timestamp() to release
the packet, in order to release the socket reference, too.

mm: fix race between mremap and removing migration entry
I don't usually pay much attention to the stale "? " addresses in
stack backtraces, but this lucky report from Pawel Sikora hints that
mremap's move_ptes() has inadequate locking against page migration.
mremap's down_write of mmap_sem, together with i_mmap_mutex or lock,
and pagetable locks, were good enough before page migration (with its
requirement that every migration entry be found) came in, and enough
while migration always held mmap_sem; but not enough nowadays, when
there's memory hotremove and compaction.
The danger is that move_ptes() lets a migration entry dodge around
behind remove_migration_pte()'s back, so it's in the old location when
looking at the new, then in the new location when looking at the old.
Either mremap's move_ptes() must additionally take anon_vma lock(), or
migration's remove_migration_pte() must stop peeking for is_swap_entry()
before it takes pagetable lock.
Consensus chooses the latter: we prefer to add overhead to migration
than to mremapping, which gets used by JVMs and by exec stack setup.

stmmac: limit max_mtu in case of 4KiB and use __netdev_alloc_skb (V2)
Problem using big mtu around 4096 bytes is you end allocating (4096
+NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN + sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) bytes ->

It's better to limit the mtu to SKB_MAX_HEAD(NET_SKB_PAD),
to have no more than one page per skb.
Also the patch changes the netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() done in
init_dma_desc_rings() and uses a variant allowing GFP_KERNEL allocations
allowing the driver to load even in case of memory pressure.

This patch enhances the STMMAC driver to support CHAINED mode of
descriptor.
STMMAC supports DMA descriptor to operate both in dual buffer(RING)
and linked-list(CHAINED) mode. In RING mode (default) each descriptor
points to two data buffer pointers whereas in CHAINED mode they point
to only one data buffer pointer.
In CHAINED mode each descriptor will have pointer to next descriptor in
the list, hence creating the explicit chaining in the descriptor itself,
whereas such explicit chaining is not possible in RING mode.
First version of this work has been done by Rayagond.
Then the patch has been reworked avoiding ifdef inside the C code.
A new header file has been added to define all the functions needed for
managing enhanced and normal descriptors.
In fact, these have to be specialized according to the ring/chain usage.
Two new C files have been also added to implement the helper routines
needed to manage: jumbo frames, chain and ring setup (i.e. desc3).

sysfs is a core piece of ifrastructure that many people use and

A single inexpensive test in sysfs_find_dirent is almost sufficient

sysfs: Implement support for tagged files in sysfs.
Looking up files in sysfs is hard to understand and analyize because we
currently allow placing untagged files in tagged directories. In the
implementation of that we have two subtly different meanings of NULL.
NULL meaning there is no tag on a directory entry and NULL meaning
we don't care which namespace the lookup is performed for. This
multiple uses of NULL have resulted in subtle bugs (since fixed)
in the code.
Currently it is only the bonding driver that needs to have an untagged
file in a tagged directory.
To untagle this mess I am adding support for tagged files to sysfs.
Modifying the bonding driver to implement bonding_masters as a tagged
file. Registering bonding_masters once for each network namespace.
Then I am removing support for untagged entries in tagged sysfs
directories.
Resulting in code that is much easier to reason about.

The issue happens on every port initialization, but

net: Move rcu_barrier from rollback_registered_many to netdev_run_todo.
This patch moves the rcu_barrier from rollback_registered_many
(inside the rtnl_lock) into netdev_run_todo (just outside the rtnl_lock).
This allows us to gain the full benefit of sychronize_net calling
synchronize_rcu_expedited when the rtnl_lock is held.
The rcu_barrier in rollback_registered_many was originally a synchronize_net
but was promoted to be a rcu_barrier() when it was found that people were
unnecessarily hitting the 250ms wait in netdev_wait_allrefs(). Changing
the rcu_barrier back to a synchronize_net is therefore safe.
Since we only care about waiting for the rcu callbacks before we get
to netdev_wait_allrefs() it is also safe to move the wait into
netdev_run_todo.
This was tested by creating and destroying 1000 tap devices and observing
/proc/lock_stat. /proc/lock_stat reports this change reduces the hold
times of the rtnl_lock by a factor of 10. There was no observable
difference in the amount of time it takes to destroy a network device.

phylib: Modify Vitesse RGMII skew settings
The Vitesse driver was using the RGMII_ID interface type to determine if
skew was necessary. However, we want to move away from using that
interface type, as it's really a property of the board's PHY connection.
However, some boards depend on it, so we want to support it, while
allowing new boards to use the more flexible "fixups" approach. To do
this, we extract the code which adds skew into its own function, and
call that function when RGMII_ID has been selected.
Another side-effect of this change is that if your PHY has skew set
already, it doesn't clear it. This way, the fixup code can modify the
register without config_init then clearing it.
