This patch makes cpumap functional, by adding SKB allocation and
invoking the network stack on the dequeuing CPU.
For constructing the SKB on the remote CPU, the xdp_buff in converted
into a struct xdp_pkt, and it mapped into the top headroom of the
packet, to avoid allocating separate mem. For now, struct xdp_pkt is
just a cpumap internal data structure, with info carried between
enqueue to dequeue.
If a driver doesn't have enough headroom it is simply dropped, with
return code -EOVERFLOW. This will be picked up the xdp tracepoint
infrastructure, to allow users to catch this.
V2: take into account xdp->data_meta
V4:
- Drop busypoll tricks, keeping it more simple.
- Skip RPS and Generic-XDP-recursive-reinjection, suggested by Alexei
V5: correct RCU read protection around __netif_receive_skb_core.
V6: Setting TASK_RUNNING vs TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE based on talk with Rik van Riel

This patch connects cpumap to the xdp_do_redirect_map infrastructure.
Still no SKB allocation are done yet. The XDP frames are transferred
to the other CPU, but they are simply refcnt decremented on the remote
CPU. This served as a good benchmark for measuring the overhead of
remote refcnt decrement. If driver page recycle cache is not
efficient then this, exposes a bottleneck in the page allocator.
A shout-out to MST's ptr_ring, which is the secret behind is being so
efficient to transfer memory pointers between CPUs, without constantly
bouncing cache-lines between CPUs.
V3: Handle !CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL pointed out by kbuild test robot.
V4: Make Generic-XDP aware of cpumap type, but don't allow redirect yet,
as implementation require a separate upstream discussion.
V5:
- Fix a maybe-uninitialized pointed out by kbuild test robot.
- Restrict bpf-prog side access to cpumap, open when use-cases appear
- Implement cpu_map_enqueue() as a more simple void pointer enqueue
V6:
- Allow cpumap type for usage in helper bpf_redirect_map,
general bpf-prog side restriction moved to earlier patch.

The 'cpumap' is primarily used as a backend map for XDP BPF helper
call bpf_redirect_map() and XDP_REDIRECT action, like 'devmap'.
This patch implement the main part of the map. It is not connected to
the XDP redirect system yet, and no SKB allocation are done yet.
The main concern in this patch is to ensure the datapath can run
without any locking. This adds complexity to the setup and tear-down
procedure, which assumptions are extra carefully documented in the
code comments.
V2:
- make sure array isn't larger than NR_CPUS
- make sure CPUs added is a valid possible CPU
V3: fix nitpicks from Jakub Kicinski <kubakici@wp.pl>
V5:
- Restrict map allocation to root / CAP_SYS_ADMIN
- WARN_ON_ONCE if queue is not empty on tear-down
- Return -EPERM on memlock limit instead of -ENOMEM
- Error code in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() also handle ptr_ring_cleanup()
- Moved cpu_map_enqueue() to next patch
V6: all notice by Daniel Borkmann
- Fix err return code in cpu_map_alloc() introduced in V5
- Move cpu_possible() check after max_entries boundary check
- Forbid usage initially in check_map_func_compatibility()
V7:
- Fix alloc error path spotted by Daniel Borkmann
- Did stress test adding+removing CPUs from the map concurrently
- Fixed refcnt issue on cpu_map_entry, kthread started too soon
- Make sure packets are flushed during tear-down, involved use of
rcu_barrier() and kthread_run only exit after queue is empty
- Fix alloc error path in __cpu_map_entry_alloc() for ptr_ring
V8:
- Nitpicking comments and gramma by Edward Cree
- Fix missing semi-colon introduced in V7 due to rebasing
- Move struct bpf_cpu_map_entry members cpu+map_id to tracepoint patch

====================
mlx5-updates-2017-10-11: IPoIB Multi Pkey support
This series provides the support for IPoIB Multi Pkey.
InfiniBand Pkeys are the equivalent of Ethernet vlans.
Currently IPoIB device driver supports only default Pkey and IPoIB Pkey child
interfaces are not supported with IPoIB offloads mode, this series will add
the support for that by allowing creating mlx5 multiple IPoIB netdevices with
a non-default Pkey.
mlx5 IPoIB Pkey child interface is smaller version of mlx5i IPoIB interfaces and shares
most of its resources with the parent IPoIB interface, namely RX steering and ring
queue resources.
The only mlx5 resources a child Pkey interface will be creating are the TX rings,
since they should be assigned to a specific Pkey.
mlx5i Pkey netdev is implemented via new mlx5e netdev profile implemented in
mlx5/core/ipoib/ipoib_vlan.c.
The series starts with a refactoring of mlx5e PTP and mlx5 clock implementation
to move the code to be part of mlx5 core rather than mlx5e netdevice, in order to
make mlx5 clock and PTP registration part of the core to be shared with mlx5e
master Ethernet netdev/IPoIB parent netdev and mlx5_ib in the near future.
Add the support for attaching multiple underlay QPs for the different Pkeys
in mlx5 core RX steering.
Add Pkey index to rdma_netdev to add the ability to set PKEY index to lower
IPoIB offload netdev.
Use hash-table to map between DQPN (Destination QP number) to child netdev
for the IPoIB parent netdev to forward RX packets to the corresponding
child Pkey netdev, since the RX rings are shared.
The reset of the series adds the ipoib child Pkey: mlx5e netdev profile,
netdev nods implementation and minimal set of ethtool callbacks.

When using 'ethtool -L' on a VF to change number of requested queues
from PF, we shouldn't trust the VF to reset itself after making the
request. Doing it that way opens the door for a potentially malicious
VF to do nasty things to the PF which should never be the case.
This makes it such that after VF makes a successful request, PF will
then reset the VF to institute required changes. Only if the request
fails will PF send a message back to VF letting it know the request was
unsuccessful.
Testing-hints:
There should be no real functional changes. This is simply hardening
against a potentially malicious VF.

Some of Broadcom's PHYs run by default in slave mode with Automatic
Slave/Master configuration disabled. It stops them from working properly

Verifier log buffer can be quite large (up to 16MB currently).
As Eric Dumazet points out if we allow multiple verification
requests to proceed simultaneously, malicious user may use the
verifier as a way of allocating large amounts of unswappable
memory to OOM the host.
Switch to a strategy of allocating a smaller buffer (1024B)
and writing it out into the user buffer after every print.
While at it remove the old BUG_ON().
This is in preparation of the global verifier lock removal.

Add an access function that, given a bridge netdevice, returns whether the
bridge device is currently an mrouter or not. The function uses the already
existing br_multicast_is_router function to check that.
This function is needed in order to allow ports that join an already
existing bridge to know the current mrouter state of the bridge device.
Together with the bridge device mrouter ports switchdev notifications, it
is possible to have full offloading of the semantics of the bridge device
mcast router state.
Due to the fact that the bridge multicast router status can change in
packet RX path, take the multicast_router bridge spinlock to protect the
read.

Commit 2c16d6033264 ("netfilter: xt_bpf: support ebpf") introduced
support for attaching an eBPF object by an fd, with the
'bpf_mt_check_v1' ABI expecting the '.fd' to be specified upon each
IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE call.
However this breaks subsequent iptables calls:
# iptables -A INPUT -m bpf --object-pinned /sys/fs/bpf/xxx -j ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -s 5.6.7.8 -j ACCEPT
iptables: Invalid argument. Run `dmesg' for more information.
That's because iptables works by loading existing rules using
IPT_SO_GET_ENTRIES to userspace, then issuing IPT_SO_SET_REPLACE with
the replacement set.
However, the loaded 'xt_bpf_info_v1' has an arbitrary '.fd' number
(from the initial "iptables -m bpf" invocation) - so when 2nd invocation
occurs, userspace passes a bogus fd number, which leads to
'bpf_mt_check_v1' to fail.
One suggested solution [1] was to hack iptables userspace, to perform a
"entries fixup" immediatley after IPT_SO_GET_ENTRIES, by opening a new,
process-local fd per every 'xt_bpf_info_v1' entry seen.
However, in [2] both Pablo Neira Ayuso and Willem de Bruijn suggested to
depricate the xt_bpf_info_v1 ABI dealing with pinned ebpf objects.
This fix changes the XT_BPF_MODE_FD_PINNED behavior to ignore the given
'.fd' and instead perform an in-kernel lookup for the bpf object given
the provided '.path'.
It also defines an alias for the XT_BPF_MODE_FD_PINNED mode, named
XT_BPF_MODE_PATH_PINNED, to better reflect the fact that the user is
expected to provide the path of the pinned object.
Existing XT_BPF_MODE_FD_ELF behavior (non-pinned fd mode) is preserved.

This patch adds a new bridge port flag BR_NEIGH_SUPPRESS to
suppress arp and nd flood on bridge ports. It implements
rfc7432, section 10.
https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7432#section-10
for ethernet VPN deployments. It is similar to the existing
BR_PROXYARP* flags but has a few semantic differences to conform
to EVPN standard. Unlike the existing flags, this new flag suppresses
flood of all neigh discovery packets (arp and nd) to tunnel ports.
Supports both vlan filtering and non-vlan filtering bridges.
In case of EVPN, it is mainly used to avoid flooding
of arp and nd packets to tunnel ports like vxlan.
This patch adds netlink and sysfs support to set this bridge port
flag.

Pull watchddog clean-up and fixes from Thomas Gleixner:
"The watchdog (hard/softlockup detector) code is pretty much broken in
its current state. The patch series addresses this by removing all
duct tape and refactoring it into a workable state.
The reasons why I ask for inclusion that late in the cycle are:
1) The code causes lockdep splats vs. hotplug locking which get
reported over and over. Unfortunately there is no easy fix.
2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken
3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working
watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't
ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the
solution would be easy to backport.
4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got
delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu()
surprise which we discussed recently.
Changes vs. V1:
- Addressed your review points
- Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late
- Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point
in the series. Now they match what they do in the end.
- Fixed a 'unused variable' warning, which got not detected by the

This patch adds a new queue (list) that tracks the sent but not yet
acked or SACKed skbs for a TCP connection. The list is chronologically
ordered by skb->skb_mstamp (the head is the oldest sent skb).
This list will be used to optimize TCP Rack recovery, which checks
an skb's timestamp to judge if it has been lost and needs to be
retransmitted. Since TCP write queue is ordered by sequence instead
of sent time, RACK has to scan over the write queue to catch all
eligible packets to detect lost retransmission, and iterates through
SACKed skbs repeatedly.
Special cares for rare events:
1. TCP repair fakes skb transmission so the send queue needs adjusted
2. SACK reneging would require re-inserting SACKed skbs into the
send queue. For now I believe it's not worth the complexity to
make RACK work perfectly on SACK reneging, so we do nothing here.
3. Fast Open: currently for non-TFO, send-queue correctly queues
the pure SYN packet. For TFO which queues a pure SYN and
then a data packet, send-queue only queues the data packet but
not the pure SYN due to the structure of TFO code. This is okay
because the SYN receiver would never respond with a SACK on a
missing SYN (i.e. SYN is never fast-retransmitted by SACK/RACK).
In order to not grow sk_buff, we use an union for the new list and
_skb_refdst/destructor fields. This is a bit complicated because
we need to make sure _skb_refdst and destructor are properly zeroed
before skb is cloned/copied at transmit, and before being freed.

x-netns interfaces are bound to two netns: the link netns and the upper
netns. Usually, this kind of interfaces is created in the link netns and
then moved to the upper netns. At the end, the interface is visible only
in the upper netns. The link nsid is advertised via netlink in the upper
netns, thus the user always knows where is the link part.
There is no such mechanism in the link netns. When the interface is moved
to another netns, the user cannot "follow" it.
This patch adds a new netlink attribute which helps to follow an interface
which moves to another netns. When the interface is unregistered, the new
nsid is advertised. If the interface is a x-netns interface (ie
rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net is defined), the nsid is allocated if needed.

introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag that can be used to attach multiple
bpf programs to a cgroup.
The difference between three possible flags for BPF_PROG_ATTACH command:
- NONE(default): No further bpf programs allowed in the subtree.
- BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program,
the program in this cgroup yields to sub-cgroup program.
- BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program,
that cgroup program gets run in addition to the program in this cgroup.
NONE and BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE existed before. This patch doesn't
change their behavior. It only clarifies the semantics in relation
to new flag.
Only one program is allowed to be attached to a cgroup with
NONE or BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag.
Multiple programs are allowed to be attached to a cgroup with
BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag. They are executed in FIFO order
(those that were attached first, run first)
The programs of sub-cgroup are executed first, then programs of
this cgroup and then programs of parent cgroup.
All eligible programs are executed regardless of return code from
earlier programs.
To allow efficient execution of multiple programs attached to a cgroup
and to avoid penalizing cgroups without any programs attached
introduce 'struct bpf_prog_array' which is RCU protected array
of pointers to bpf programs.

The rework of the core hotplug code triggers the WARN_ON in start_wd_cpu()
on powerpc because it is called multiple times for the boot CPU.
The first call is via:
start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0
watchdog_nmi_reconfigure+0x124/0x170
softlockup_reconfigure_threads+0x110/0x130
lockup_detector_init+0xbc/0xe0
kernel_init_freeable+0x18c/0x37c
kernel_init+0x2c/0x160
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc
And then again via the CPU hotplug registration:
start_wd_on_cpu+0x80/0x2f0
cpuhp_invoke_callback+0x194/0x620
cpuhp_thread_fun+0x7c/0x1b0
smpboot_thread_fn+0x290/0x2a0
kthread+0x168/0x1b0
ret_from_kernel_thread+0x5c/0xbc
This can be avoided by setting up the cpu hotplug state with nocalls and
move the initialization to the watchdog_nmi_probe() function. That
initializes the hotplug callbacks without invoking the callback and the
following core initialization function then configures the watchdog for the
online CPUs (in this case CPU0) via softlockup_reconfigure_threads().

The recent cleanup of the watchdog code split watchdog_nmi_reconfigure()
into two stages. One to stop the NMI and one to restart it after
reconfiguration. That was done by adding a boolean 'run' argument to the
code, which is functionally correct but not necessarily a piece of art.
Replace it by two explicit functions: watchdog_nmi_stop() and
watchdog_nmi_start().

In may, Steven sent a patch deleting the bounce buffer handling
and the CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option.
I chose the less invasive path of making it a runtime config
option, and we merged that successfully for kernel v4.12.
The code is however just standing in the way and taking up
space for seemingly no gain on any systems in wide use today.
Pierre says the code was there to improve speed on TI SDHCI
controllers on certain HP laptops and possibly some Ricoh
controllers as well. Early SDHCI controllers lacked the
scatter-gather feature, which made software bounce buffers
a significant speed boost.
We are clearly talking about the list of SDHCI PCI-based
MMC/SD card readers found in the pci_ids[] list in
drivers/mmc/host/sdhci-pci-core.c.
The TI SDHCI derivative is not supported by the upstream
kernel. This leaves the Ricoh.
What we can however notice is that the x86 defconfigs in the
kernel did not enable CONFIG_MMC_BLOCK_BOUNCE option, which
means that any such laptop would have to have a custom
configured kernel to actually take advantage of this
bounce buffer speed-up. It simply seems like there was
a speed optimization for the Ricoh controllers that noone
was using. (I have not checked the distro defconfigs but
I am pretty sure the situation is the same there.)
Bounce buffers increased performance on the OMAP HSMMC
at one point, and was part of the original submission in
commit a45c6cb81647 ("[ARM] 5369/1: omap mmc: Add new
omap hsmmc controller for 2430 and 34xx, v3")
This optimization was removed in
commit 0ccd76d4c236 ("omap_hsmmc: Implement scatter-gather
emulation")
which found that scatter-gather emulation provided even
better performance.
The same was introduced for SDHCI in
commit 2134a922c6e7 ("sdhci: scatter-gather (ADMA) support")
I am pretty positively convinced that software
scatter-gather emulation will do for any host controller what
the bounce buffers were doing. Essentially, the bounce buffer
was a reimplementation of software scatter-gather-emulation in
the MMC subsystem, and it should be done away with.

inline function
pfn_to_section_nr() and section_nr_to_pfn() are defined as macro.
pfn_to_section_nr() has no issue even if it is defined as macro. But
section_nr_to_pfn() has overflow issue if sec is defined as int.
section_nr_to_pfn() just shifts sec by PFN_SECTION_SHIFT. If sec is
defined as unsigned long, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 64 bit value.
But if sec is defined as int, section_nr_to_pfn() returns pfn as 32 bit
value.
__remove_section() calculates start_pfn using section_nr_to_pfn() and
scn_nr defined as int. So if hot-removed memory address is over 16TB,
overflow issue occurs and section_nr_to_pfn() does not calculate correct
pfn.
To make callers use proper arg, the patch changes the macros to inline
functions.

Patch series "exec: binfmt_misc: fix use-after-free, kill
iname[BINPRM_BUF_SIZE]".
It looks like this code was always wrong, then commit 948b701a607f
("binfmt_misc: add persistent opened binary handler for containers")
added more problems.
This patch (of 6):
load_script() can simply use i_name instead, it points into bprm->buf[]
and nobody can change this memory until we call prepare_binprm().
The only complication is that we need to also change the signature of
bprm_change_interp() but this change looks good too.
While at it, do whitespace/style cleanups.
NOTE: the real motivation for this change is that people want to
increase BINPRM_BUF_SIZE, we need to change load_misc_binary() too but
this looks more complicated because afaics it is very buggy.

Andrea has noticed that the oom_reaper doesn't invalidate the range via
mmu notifiers (mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end) and that can
corrupt the memory of the kvm guest for example.
tlb_flush_mmu_tlbonly already invokes mmu notifiers but that is not
sufficient as per Andrea:
"mmu_notifier_invalidate_range cannot be used in replacement of
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_start/end. For KVM
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range is a noop and rightfully so. A MMU
notifier implementation has to implement either ->invalidate_range
method or the invalidate_range_start/end methods, not both. And if you
implement invalidate_range_start/end like KVM is forced to do, calling
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range in common code is a noop for KVM.
For those MMU notifiers that can get away only implementing
->invalidate_range, the ->invalidate_range is implicitly called by
mmu_notifier_invalidate_range_end(). And only those secondary MMUs
that share the same pagetable with the primary MMU (like AMD iommuv2)
can get away only implementing ->invalidate_range"
As the callback is allowed to sleep and the implementation is out of
hand of the MM it is safer to simply bail out if there is an mmu
notifier registered. In order to not fail too early make the
mm_has_notifiers check under the oom_lock and have a little nap before
failing to give the current oom victim some more time to exit.

There's a typo in recent change of VM_MPX definition. We want it to be
VM_HIGH_ARCH_4, not VM_HIGH_ARCH_BIT_4.
This bug does cause visible regressions. In arch_vma_name the vmflags
are tested against VM_MPX. With the incorrect value of VM_MPX, a number
of vmas (such as the stack) test positive and end up being marked as
"[mpx]" in /proc/N/maps instead of their correct names.
This confuses tools like rr which expect to be able to find familiar
vmas.

Similarly to the offload_fwd_mark field, the offload_mr_fwd_mark field is
used to allow partial offloading of MFC multicast routes.
Switchdev drivers can offload MFC multicast routes to the hardware by
registering to the FIB notification chain. When one of the route output
interfaces is not offload-able, i.e. has different parent ID, the route
cannot be fully offloaded by the hardware. Examples to non-offload-able
devices are a management NIC, dummy device, pimreg device, etc.
Similar problem exists in the bridge module, as one bridge can hold
interfaces with different parent IDs. At the bridge, the problem is solved
by the offload_fwd_mark skb field.
Currently, when a route cannot go through full offload, the only solution
for a switchdev driver is not to offload it at all and let the packet go
through slow path.
Using the offload_mr_fwd_mark field, a driver can indicate that a packet
was already forwarded by hardware to all the devices with the same parent
ID as the input device. Further patches in this patch-set are going to
enhance ipmr to skip multicast forwarding to devices with the same parent
ID if a packets is marked with that field.
The reason why the already existing "offload_fwd_mark" bit cannot be used
is that a switchdev driver would want to make the distinction between a
packet that has already gone through L2 forwarding but did not go through
multicast forwarding, and a packet that has already gone through both L2
and multicast forwarding.
For example: when a packet is ingressing from a switchport enslaved to a
bridge, which is configured with multicast forwarding, the following
scenarios are possible:
- The packet can be trapped to the CPU due to exception while multicast
forwarding (for example, MTU error). In that case, it had already gone
through L2 forwarding in the hardware, thus A switchdev driver would
want to set the skb->offload_fwd_mark and not the
skb->offload_mr_fwd_mark.
- The packet can also be trapped due to a pimreg/dummy device used as one
of the output interfaces. In that case, it can go through both L2 and
(partial) multicast forwarding inside the hardware, thus a switchdev
driver would want to set both the skb->offload_fwd_mark and
skb->offload_mr_fwd_mark.
