Flavio Leitner c2952c314b bonding: add retransmit membership reports tunable

membership report sent on a link failure event.

Flavio Leitner 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.

Flavio Leitner 5a37e8ca85 bonding: rejoin multicast groups on VLANs
During a failover, the IGMP membership is sent to update
the switch restoring the traffic, but it misses groups added
to VLAN devices running on top of bonding devices.

This patch changes it to iterate over all VLAN devices
on top of it sending IGMP memberships too.

Eric Dumazet 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.

Eric Dumazet 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.

Eric Dumazet 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 :

init_sram is also given a void return type, and its single return statement

Dan Rosenberg 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.

Eric Dumazet 4c9687098f ipmr: RCU conversion of mroute_sk
Use RCU and RTNL to protect (struct mr_table)->mroute_sk

Readers use RCU, writers use RTNL.

ip_ra_control() already use an RCU grace period before
ip_ra_destroy_rcu(), so we dont need synchronize_rcu() in
mrtsock_destruct()

Eric Dumazet 55747a0a73 ipmr: __pim_rcv() is called under rcu_read_lock
No need to get a reference on reg_dev and release it, we are in a
rcu_read_lock() protected section.

Ben Hutchings 10ccff62bd netdev: Depend on INET before selecting INET_LRO
Since 'select' ignores dependencies, drivers that select INET_LRO must
depend on INET.  This fixes the broken configuration reported in
<http://article.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel/825646>.

Ben Hutchings 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.

Nagendra Tomar 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
memory pool has exhausted.

>>> 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.
