Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.
All messages are still ratelimited.
Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.
This may have some negative impact on messages that were
emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled. Even so,
these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.
This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
"/proc/sys/net/core/warnings". For backward compatibility,
the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function. The extern
declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
Miscellanea:
o Update the sysctl documentation
o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
o Coalesce format fragments
o Realign arguments

mlx4: Add CHECKSUM_COMPLETE support
These patches from Shani, Matan and myself add support for
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE reporting on non TCP/UDP packets such as
GRE and ICMP. I'd like to deeply thank Jerry Chu for his
innovation and support in that effort.
Based on the feedback from Eric and Ido Shamay, in V2 we dropped
the patch which removed the calls to napi_gro_frags() and added
a patch which makes the RX code to go through that path
regardless of the checksum status.

When processing received traffic, pass CHECKSUM_COMPLETE status to the
stack, with calculated checksum for non TCP/UDP packets (such
as GRE or ICMP).
Although the stack expects checksum which doesn't include the pseudo
header, the HW adds it. To address that, we are subtracting the pseudo
header checksum from the checksum value provided by the HW.
In the IPv6 case, we also compute/add the IP header checksum which
is not added by the HW for such packets.

net: SO_INCOMING_CPU support
SO_INCOMING_CPU socket option (read by getsockopt()) provides
an alternative to RPS/RFS for high performance servers using
multi queues NIC.
TCP should use sk_mark_napi_id() for established sockets only.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Alternative to RPS/RFS is to use hardware support for multiple
queues.
Then split a set of million of sockets into worker threads, each
one using epoll() to manage events on its own socket pool.
Ideally, we want one thread per RX/TX queue/cpu, but we have no way to
know after accept() or connect() on which queue/cpu a socket is managed.
We normally use one cpu per RX queue (IRQ smp_affinity being properly
set), so remembering on socket structure which cpu delivered last packet
is enough to solve the problem.
After accept(), connect(), or even file descriptor passing around
processes, applications can use :
int cpu;
socklen_t len = sizeof(cpu);
getsockopt(fd, SOL_SOCKET, SO_INCOMING_CPU, &cpu, &len);
And use this information to put the socket into the right silo
for optimal performance, as all networking stack should run
on the appropriate cpu, without need to send IPI (RPS/RFS).

sk_mark_napi_id() is used to record for a flow napi id of incoming
packets for busypoll sake.
We should do this only on established flows, not on listeners.
This was 'working' by virtue of the socket cloning, but doing
this on SYN packets in unecessary cache line dirtying.
Even if we move sk_napi_id in the same cache line than sk_lock,
we are working to make SYN processing lockless, so it is desirable
to set sk_napi_id only for established flows.

sunvnet: edge-case/race-conditions bug fixes
This patch series contains fixes for race-conditions in sunvnet,
that can encountered when there is a difference in latency between
producer and consumer.
Patch 1 addresses a case when the STOPPED LDC ack from a peer is
processed before vnet_start_xmit can finish updating the dr->prod
state.
Patch 2 fixes the edge-case when outgoing data and incoming
stopped-ack cross each other in flight.
Patch 3 adds a missing rcu_read_unlock(), found by code-inspection.

As per comments in vnet_start_xmit, for the edge case
when outgoing vnet_start_xmit() data and an incoming STOPPED
ACK cross each other in flight, we may need to send the missed
START trigger from maybe_tx_wakeup() after checking for a
false value of start_cons

When vnet_start_xmit() is concurrent with vnet_ack(), we may
have a race that looks like:
thread 1 thread 2
vnet_start_xmit vnet_event_napi -> vnet_rx
__vnet_tx_trigger for some desc X
at this point dr->prod == X
peer sends back a stopped ack for X
we process X, but X == dr->prod
so we bail out in vnet_ack with
!idx_is_pending
update dr->prod
As a result of the fact that we never processed the stopped ack for X,
the Tx path is led to incorrectly believe that the peer is still
"started" and reading, but the peer has stopped reading, which will
ultimately end in flow-control assertions.
The fix is to synchronize the above 2 paths on the netif_tx_lock.

* WMM admission control support in mac80211 (myself)
* various smaller fixes, spelling corrections, and minor API additions"
For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:
"Here's the first bluetooth-next pull request for 3.19. The vast majority
of patches are for ieee802154 from Alexander Aring with various fixes
and cleanups. There are also several LE/SMP fixes as well as improved
support for handling LE devices that have lost their pairing information
(the patches from Alfonso). Jukka provides a couple of stability fixes
for 6lowpan and Szymon conformance fixes for RFCOMM. For the HCI drivers
we have one new USB ID for an Acer controller as well as a reset
handling fix for H5."
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Major changes are:
o ethtool support (Ben)
o print dev string prefix with debug hex buffers dump (Michal)
o debugfs file to read calibration data from the firmware verification
purposes (me)
o fix fw_stats debugfs file, now results are more reliable (Michal)
o firmware crash counters via debugfs (Ben&me)
o various tracing points to debug firmware (Rajkumar)
o make it possible to provide firmware calibration data via a file (me)
And we have quite a lot of smaller fixes and clean up."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"The big new thing here is netdetect which allows the
firmware to wake up the platform when a specific network
is detected. Along with that I have fixes for d3 operation.
The usual amount of rate scaling stuff - we now support STBC.
The other commit that stands out is Johannes's work on
devcoredump. He basically starts to use the standard

ipv4: Simplify raw_probe_proto_opt and avoid reading user iov twice
This series rewrites the function raw_probe_proto_opt in a more

probe may in fact be invalid.
====================

Ever since raw_probe_proto_opt was added it had the problem of
causing the user iov to be read twice, once during the probe for
the protocol header and once again in ip_append_data.
This is a potential security problem since it means that whatever
we're probing may be invalid. This patch plugs the hole by
firstly advancing the iov so we don't read the same spot again,
and secondly saving what we read the first time around for use
by ip_append_data.

The function raw_probe_proto_opt tries to extract the first two
bytes from the user input in order to seed the IPsec lookup for
ICMP packets. In doing so it's processing iovec by hand and
overcomplicating things.

memcpy_fromiovecend.

To enable gro_flush_timeout, a driver has to use napi_complete_done()
instead of napi_complete().
Tested:
Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues)
Without this feature, we send back about 305,000 ACK per second.
GRO aggregation ratio is low (811/305 = 2.65 segments per GRO packet)
Setting a timer of 2000 nsec is enough to increase GRO packet sizes
and reduce number of ACK packets. (811/19.2 = 42)
Receiver performs less calls to upper stacks, less wakes up.
This also reduces cpu usage on the sender, as it receives less ACK
packets.
Note that reducing number of wakes up increases cpu efficiency, but can
decrease QPS, as applications wont have the chance to warmup cpu caches
doing a partial read of RPC requests/answers if they fit in one skb.

Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard.
Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting
goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal
latencies.
To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use :
ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44
But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to
50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when
a packet with TCP Push flag is received.
Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every
incoming packet.
This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do,
based on traffic pattern.
Packets with Push flag wont be delayed.
Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep
receiving data.
This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting
/sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond.
To fully enable this mechanism, drivers should use napi_complete_done()
instead of napi_complete().
Tested:
Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues)

This patch adds skb_copy_datagram_iter, which is identical to
skb_copy_datagram_iovec except that it operates on iov_iter
instead of iovec.
Eventually all users of skb_copy_datagram_iovec should switch
over to iov_iter and then we can remove skb_copy_datagram_iovec.

Add definition to vxlan nla_policy for UDP checksum. This is necessary
to enable UDP checksums on VXLAN.
In some instances, enabling UDP checksums can improve performance on
receive for devices that return legacy checksum-unnecessary for UDP/IP.
Also, UDP checksum provides some protection against VNI corruption.
Testing:
Ran 200 instances of TCP_STREAM and TCP_RR on bnx2x.
TCP_STREAM
IPv4, without UDP checksums
14.41% TX CPU utilization
25.71% RX CPU utilization
9083.4 Mbps
IPv4, with UDP checksums
13.99% TX CPU utilization
13.40% RX CPU utilization
9095.65 Mbps
TCP_RR
IPv4, without UDP checksums
94.08% TX CPU utilization
156/248/462 90/95/99% latencies
1.12743e+06 tps

====================
amd-xgbe: AMD XGBE driver updates 2014-11-06
The following series of patches fixes a couple of bugs that slipped
through my last series.
- Free channel structure after freeing the per channel interrupts
- If an skb error allocation occurs during receive processing check
whether more descriptors are associated with the packet or whether
to start on a new packet
This patch series is based on net-next.
