Petr Machata 567c5e13be net: core: dev: Add extack argument to dev_change_flags()
In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's
necessary to route the extack to __dev_open() from diverse (possibly
indirect) callers. One prominent API through which the notification is
invoked is dev_change_flags().

Therefore extend dev_change_flags() with and extra extack argument and
update all users. Most of the calls end up just encoding NULL, but
several sites (VLAN, ipvlan, VRF, rtnetlink) do have extack available.

Since the function declaration line is changed anyway, name the other
function arguments to placate checkpatch.

Jiri Pirko 32764c66fa net: 8021q: move vlan offload registrations into vlan_core
Currently, the vlan packet offloads are registered only upon 8021q module
load. However, even without this module loaded, the offloads could be
utilized, for example by openvswitch datapath. As reported by Michael,
that causes 2x to 5x performance improvement, depending on a testcase.

So move the vlan offload registrations into vlan_core and make this
available even without 8021q module loaded.

Ivan Khoronzhuk 960abf68d2 net: 8021q: vlan_core: allow use list of vlans for real device
It's redundancy for the drivers to hold the list of vlans when
absolutely the same list exists in vlan core. In most cases it's
needed only to traverse the vlan devices, their vids and sync some
settings with h/w, so add API to simplify this.

At least some of these drivers also can benefit:

Davide Caratti 7dad9937e0 net: vlan: add support for tunnel offload
GSO tunneled packets are always segmented in software before they are
transmitted by a VLAN, even when the lower device can offload tunnel
encapsulation and VLAN together (i.e., some bits in NETIF_F_GSO_ENCAP_ALL
mask are set in the lower device 'vlan_features'). If we let VLANs have
the same tunnel offload capabilities as their lower device, throughput
can improve significantly when CPU is limited on the transmitter side.

 - set NETIF_F_GSO_ENCAP_ALL bits in the VLAN 'hw_features', to ensure
 that 'features' will have those bits zeroed only when the lower device
 has no hardware support for tunnel encapsulation.
 - for the same reason, copy GSO-related bits of 'hw_enc_features' from
 lower device to VLAN, and ensure to update that value when the lower
 device changes its features.
 - set NETIF_F_HW_CSUM bit in the VLAN 'hw_enc_features' if 'real_dev'
 is able to compute checksums at least for a kind of packets, like done
 with commit 8403debeea ("vlan: Keep NETIF_F_HW_CSUM similar to other
 software devices"). This avoids software segmentation due to mismatching
 checksum capabilities between VLAN's 'features' and 'hw_enc_features'.

Debabrata Banerjee c9fbd71f73 netpoll: allow cleanup to be synchronous
This fixes a problem introduced by:
commit 2cde6acd49 ("netpoll: Fix __netpoll_rcu_free so that it can hold the rtnl lock")

When using netconsole on a bond, __netpoll_cleanup can asynchronously
recurse multiple times, each __netpoll_free_async call can result in
more __netpoll_free_async's. This means there is now a race between
cleanup_work queues on multiple netpoll_info's on multiple devices and
the configuration of a new netpoll. For example if a netconsole is set
to enable 0, reconfigured, and enable 1 immediately, this netconsole
will likely not work.

Given the reason for __netpoll_free_async is it can be called when rtnl
is not locked, if it is locked, we should be able to execute
synchronously. It appears to be locked everywhere it's called from.

Generalize the design pattern from the teaming driver for current
callers of __netpoll_free_async.

Sabrina Dubroca 603d4cf8fe net: fix use-after-free in GRO with ESP
Since the addition of GRO for ESP, gro_receive can consume the skb and
return -EINPROGRESS. In that case, the lower layer GRO handler cannot
touch the skb anymore.

Commit 5f114163f2 ("net: Add a skb_gro_flush_final helper.") converted
some of the gro_receive handlers that can lead to ESP's gro_receive so
that they wouldn't access the skb when -EINPROGRESS is returned, but
missed other spots, mainly in tunneling protocols.

This patch finishes the conversion to using skb_gro_flush_final(), and
adds a new helper, skb_gro_flush_final_remcsum(), used in VXLAN and
GUE.

Return an SKB pointer from the GRO receive handlers.  When GRO receive

Several operations are greatly simplified by this transformation,

exceeds MAX_GRO_SKBS, and napi_gro_flush() which walks the queue

Gal Pressman 9daae9bd47 net: Call add/kill vid ndo on vlan filter feature toggling
NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_[CS]TAG_FILTER features require more than just a bit
flip in dev->features in order to keep the driver in a consistent state.
These features notify the driver of each added/removed vlan, but toggling
of vlan-filter does not notify the driver accordingly for each of the
existing vlans.

This patch implements a similar solution to NETIF_F_RX_UDP_TUNNEL_PORT
behavior (which notifies the driver about UDP ports in the same manner
that vids are reported).

Each toggling of the features propagates to the 8021q module, which
iterates over the vlans and call add/kill ndo accordingly.

David S. Miller 03fe2debbb Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net
Fun set of conflict resolutions here...

For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel
adds.  Trivially resolved.

In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the
function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in
'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed.

In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the
'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that
added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied
over here.

The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating
the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst
a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code.

The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial,
the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and
here are their notes:

====================

    Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc
    branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started
    being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial
    merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch
    and the for-next branch.  This merge resolves those conflicts and
    provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can
    be based.

    Conflicts:
            drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f95
            (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and
            commit b5ca15ad7e (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support)
            add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the
            init/de-init functions used by mlx5.  To support the new
            representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch
            needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list
            added by the representors patch needed to be modified to
            match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup
            patch.

Toshiaki Makita cbe7128c4b vlan: Fix out of order vlan headers with reorder header off
With reorder header off, received packets are untagged in skb_vlan_untag()
called from within __netif_receive_skb_core(), and later the tag will be
inserted back in vlan_do_receive().

This caused out of order vlan headers when we create a vlan device on top
of another vlan device, because vlan_do_receive() inserts a tag as the
outermost vlan tag. E.g. the outer tag is first removed in skb_vlan_untag()
and inserted back in vlan_do_receive(), then the inner tag is next removed
and inserted back as the outermost tag.

This patch fixes the behaviour by inserting the inner tag at the right
position.

        vlan_info = rtnl_dereference(dev->vlan_info);
        if (!vlan_info)
                goto out;
        grp = &vlan_info->grp;

Depends on when that RCU callback is scheduled, we could
trigger a use-after-free in vlan_group_for_each_dev()
right following this vlan_vid_del().

Fix it by moving vlan_vid_del() before setting grp. This
is also symmetric to the vlan_vid_add() we call in
vlan_device_event().

Vadim Fedorenko 9d917c207d add support of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit in vlan
Some time ago Eric Dumazet suggested a "hack the IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE
flag on the vlan netdev". But the last comment was "does not support
properly bonding/team.(If the real_dev->privflags IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE
bit changes, we want to update all the vlans at the same time )"

I've extended that patch to support changes of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE in
bonding/team.
Both bonding and team call netdev_change_features() after recalculation
of features including priv_flags IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE bit. So the only
thing needed to support is to recheck this bit in
vlan_transfer_features().

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Gao Feng 9745e362ad net: 8021q: Fix one possible panic caused by BUG_ON in free_netdev
The register_vlan_device would invoke free_netdev directly, when
register_vlan_dev failed. It would trigger the BUG_ON in free_netdev
if the dev was already registered. In this case, the netdev would be
freed in netdev_run_todo later.

So add one condition check now. Only when dev is not registered, then
free it directly.

The following is the part coredump when netdev_upper_dev_link failed
in register_vlan_dev. I removed the lines which are too long.

David S. Miller cf124db566 net: Fix inconsistent teardown and release of private netdev state.
Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init().  However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.

Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().

The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.

netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.

netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.

Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().

This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.

If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit().  But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().

This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.

However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.

Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.

Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.

Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().

netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().

netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().

Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().

And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

Vlad Yasevich 8403debeea vlan: Keep NETIF_F_HW_CSUM similar to other software devices
Vlan devices, like all other software devices, enable
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature.  However, unlike all the othe other
software devices, vlans will switch to using IP|IPV6_CSUM
features, if the underlying devices uses them.  In these situations,
checksum offload features on the vlan device can't be controlled
via ethtool.

This patch makes vlans keep HW_CSUM feature if the underlying
device supports checksum offloading.  This makes vlan devices
behave like other software devices, and restores control to the
user.

A side-effect is that some offload settings (typically UFO)
may be enabled on the vlan device while being disabled on the HW.
However, the GSO code will correctly process the packets. This
actually results in slightly better raw throughput.

Andrey Vagin 88997e4208 net/8021q: create device with all possible features in wanted_features
wanted_features is a set of features which have to be enabled if a
hardware allows that.

Currently when a vlan device is created, its wanted_features is set to
current features of its base device.

The problem is that the base device can get new features and they are
not propagated to vlan-s of this device.

If we look at bonding devices, they doesn't have this problem and this
patch suggests to fix this issue by the same way how it works for bonding
devices.

We meet this problem, when we try to create a vlan device over a bonding
device. When a system are booting, real devices require time to be
initialized, so bonding devices created without slaves, then vlan
devices are created and only then ethernet devices are added to the
bonding device. As a result we have vlan devices with disabled
scatter-gather.

* create a bonding device
  $ ip link add bond0 type bond
  $ ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
  scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off [requested on]
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off [requested on]

* create a vlan device
  $ ip link add link bond0 name bond0.10 type vlan id 10
  $ ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
  scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off

* Add a slave device to bond0
  $ ip link set dev eth0 master bond0

And now we can see that the bond0 device has got the scatter-gather
feature, but the bond0.10 hasn't got it.
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: on
	tx-scatter-gather: on
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: on
[root@laptop linux-task-diag]# ethtool -k bond0.10 | grep scatter
scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather: off
	tx-scatter-gather-fraglist: off

With this patch the vlan device will get all new features from the
bonding device.

Here is a call trace how features which are set in this patch reach
dev->wanted_features.

register_netdevice
   vlan_dev_init
	...
	dev->hw_features = NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG |
		       NETIF_F_FRAGLIST | NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE |
		       NETIF_F_HIGHDMA | NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC |
		       NETIF_F_ALL_FCOE;

	dev->features |= dev->hw_features;
	...
    dev->wanted_features = dev->features & dev->hw_features;
    __netdev_update_features(dev);
        vlan_dev_fix_features
	   ...

Ido Schimmel a8eca32615 net: remove ndo_neigh_{construct, destroy} from stacked devices
In commit 18bfb924f0 ("net: introduce default neigh_construct/destroy
ndo calls for L2 upper devices") we added these ndos to stacked devices
such as team and bond, so that calls will be propagated to mlxsw.

However, previous commit removed the reliance on these ndos and no new
users of these ndos have appeared since above mentioned commit. We can
therefore safely remove this dead code.

stephen hemminger bc1f44709c net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void function
The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.

Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

Linus Torvalds 7c0f6ba682 Replace <asm/uaccess.h> with <linux/uaccess.h> globally
This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*<asm/uaccess.h>'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include <linux/uaccess.h>!" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

Alexey Dobriyan c7d03a00b5 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):

	add/remove: 0/0 grow/shrink: 70/598 up/down: 396/-2126 (-1730)

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:
