Felix Fietkau 4552124543 mac80211: inform drivers about the off-channel status on channel changes
For some drivers it can be useful to know whether the channel they're
supposed to switch to is going to be used for short off-channel work or
scanning, or whether the hardware is expected to stay on it for a while
longer. This is important for various kinds of calibration work, which
takes longer to complete and should keep some persistent state, even if
the channel temporarily changes.

Certain headsets such as the Motorola H350 will reject SCO and eSCO
connection requests while the ACL is transitioning from sniff mode
to active mode. Add synchronization so that SCO and eSCO connection
requests will wait until the ACL has fully transitioned to active mode.

Johannes Berg 4ced3f74da mac80211: move QoS-enable to BSS info
Ever since

commit e1b3ec1a2a
Author: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>
Date:   Mon Mar 29 12:18:34 2010 +0200

    mac80211: explicitly disable/enable QoS

mac80211 is telling drivers, in particular
iwlwifi, whether QoS is enabled or not.

However, this is only relevant for station mode,
since only then will any device send nullfunc
frames and need to know whether they should be
QoS frames or not. In other modes, there are
(currently) no frames the device is supposed to
send.

When you now consider virtual interfaces, it
becomes apparent that the current mechanism is
inadequate since it enables/disables QoS on a
global scale, where for nullfunc frames it has
to be on a per-interface scale.

Due to the above considerations, we can change
the way mac80211 advertises the QoS state to
drivers to only ever advertise it as "off" in
station mode, and make it a per-BSS setting.

David S. Miller e7c38157c6 ipv6: Make IP6CB(skb)->nhoff 16-bit.
Even with jumbograms I cannot see any way in which we would need
to records a larger than 65535 valued next-header offset.

The maximum extension header length is (256 << 3) == 2048.
There are only a handful of extension headers specified which
we'd even accept (say 5 or 6), therefore the largest next-header
offset we'd ever have to contend with is something less than
say 16k.

Therefore make it a u16 instead of a u32.

Since struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped are already
protected by _xmit_lock, its easy to convert these fields to u64 instead
of unsigned long.
This completes 64bit stats for devices using them (vlan, macvlan, ...)

Strictly, we could avoid the locking in dev_txq_stats_fold() on 64bit
arches, but its slow path and we prefer keep it simple.

This patch adds a new networking option to allow hardware time stamps
from PHY devices. When enabled, likely candidates among incoming and
outgoing network packets are offered to the PHY driver for possible
time stamping. When accepted by the PHY driver, incoming packets are
deferred for later delivery by the driver.

The patch also adds phylib driver methods for the SIOCSHWTSTAMP ioctl
and callbacks for transmit and receive time stamping. Drivers may
optionally implement these functions.

Tom Herbert b0f77d0eae net: fix problem in reading sock TX queue
Fix problem in reading the tx_queue recorded in a socket.  In
dev_pick_tx, the TX queue is read by doing a check with
sk_tx_queue_recorded on the socket, followed by a sk_tx_queue_get.
The problem is that there is not mutual exclusion across these
calls in the socket so it it is possible that the queue in the
sock can be invalidated after sk_tx_queue_recorded is called so
that sk_tx_queue get returns -1, which sets 65535 in queue_index
and thus dev_pick_tx returns 65536 which is a bogus queue and
can cause crash in dev_queue_xmit.

We fix this by only calling sk_tx_queue_get which does the proper
checks.  The interface is that sk_tx_queue_get returns the TX queue
if the sock argument is non-NULL and TX queue is recorded, else it
returns -1.  sk_tx_queue_recorded is no longer used so it can be
completely removed.

Ben Hutchings 3cfde79c6c net: Get rid of rtnl_link_stats64 / net_device_stats union
In commit be1f3c2c02 "net: Enable 64-bit
net device statistics on 32-bit architectures" I redefined struct
net_device_stats so that it could be used in a union with struct
rtnl_link_stats64, avoiding the need for explicit copying or
conversion between the two.  However, this is unsafe because there is
no locking required and no lock consistently held around calls to
dev_get_stats() and use of the statistics structure it returns.

In commit 28172739f0 "net: fix 64 bit
counters on 32 bit arches" Eric Dumazet dealt with that problem by
requiring callers of dev_get_stats() to provide storage for the
result.  This means that the net_device::stats64 field and the padding
in struct net_device_stats are now redundant, so remove them.

Update the comment on net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64 to reflect its
new usage.

Change dev_txq_stats_fold() to use struct rtnl_link_stats64, since
that is what all its callers are really using and it is no longer
going to be compatible with struct net_device_stats.

Eric Dumazet suggested the separate function for the structure
conversion.

Eric Dumazet 28172739f0 net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

Joe Perches 7db6f5fb65 vsprintf: Recursive vsnprintf: Add "%pV", struct va_format
Add the ability to print a format and va_list from a structure pointer

Allows __dev_printk to be implemented as a single printk while
minimizing string space duplication.

%pV should not be used without some mechanism to verify the
format and argument use ala __attribute__(format (printf(...))).

John Fastabend f0796d5c73 net: decreasing real_num_tx_queues needs to flush qdisc
Reducing real_num_queues needs to flush the qdisc otherwise
skbs with queue_mappings greater then real_num_tx_queues can
be sent to the underlying driver.

The flow for this is,

dev_queue_xmit()
	dev_pick_tx()
		skb_tx_hash()  => hash using real_num_tx_queues
		skb_set_queue_mapping()
	...
	qdisc_enqueue_root() => enqueue skb on txq from hash
...
dev->real_num_tx_queues -= n
...
sch_direct_xmit()
	dev_hard_start_xmit()
		ndo_start_xmit(skb,dev) => skb queue set with old hash

skbs are enqueued on the qdisc with skb->queue_mapping set
0 < queue_mappings < real_num_tx_queues.  When the driver
decreases real_num_tx_queues skb's may be dequeued from the
qdisc with a queue_mapping greater then real_num_tx_queues.

This fixes a case in ixgbe where this was occurring with DCB
and FCoE. Because the driver is using queue_mapping to map
skbs to tx descriptor rings we can potentially map skbs to
rings that no longer exist.

John Fastabend 4ef6acff83 sched: qdisc_reset_all_tx is calling qdisc_reset without qdisc_lock
When calling qdisc_reset() the qdisc lock needs to be held.  In
this case there is at least one driver i4l which is using this
without holding the lock.  Add the locking here.

Ben Hutchings a5b6ee291e ethtool: Add support for control of RX flow hash indirection
Many NICs use an indirection table to map an RX flow hash value to one
of an arbitrary number of queues (not necessarily a power of 2).  It
can be useful to remove some queues from this indirection table so
that they are only used for flows that are specifically filtered
there.  It may also be useful to weight the mapping to account for
user processes with the same CPU-affinity as the RX interrupts.

Ben Hutchings 1437ce3983 ethtool: Change ethtool_op_set_flags to validate flags
ethtool_op_set_flags() does not check for unsupported flags, and has
no way of doing so.  This means it is not suitable for use as a
default implementation of ethtool_ops::set_flags.

Add a 'supported' parameter specifying the flags that the driver and
hardware support, validate the requested flags against this, and
change all current callers to pass this parameter.

Change some other trivial implementations of ethtool_ops::set_flags to
call ethtool_op_set_flags().

Changli Gao d6bebca92c fragment: add fast path for in-order fragments
add fast path for in-order fragments

As the fragments are sent in order in most of OSes, such as Windows, Darwin and
FreeBSD, it is likely the new fragments are at the end of the inet_frag_queue.
In the fast path, we check if the skb at the end of the inet_frag_queue is the
prev we expect.
