Immediately after mlxsw module is probed and lldpad started, added APP
entries are briefly in "unknown" state before becoming "pending". That's
the state that lldpad_app_wait_set() typically sees, and since there are
no pending entries at that time, it bails out. However the entries have
not been pushed to the kernel yet at that point, and thus the test case
fails.
Fix by waiting for both unknown and pending entries to disappear before
proceeding.

====================
octeontx2-af: Add RVU Admin Function driver
Resource virtualization unit (RVU) on Marvell's OcteonTX2 SOC maps HW
resources from the network, crypto and other functional blocks into
PCI-compatible physical and virtual functions. Each functional block
again has multiple local functions (LFs) for provisioning to PCI devices.
RVU supports multiple PCIe SRIOV physical functions (PFs) and virtual
functions (VFs). PF0 is called the administrative / admin function (AF)
and has privileges to provision RVU functional block's LFs to each of the
PF/VF.
RVU managed networking functional blocks
- Network pool allocator (NPA)
- Network interface controller (NIX)
- Network parser CAM (NPC)
- Schedule/Synchronize/Order unit (SSO)
RVU managed non-networking functional blocks
- Crypto accelerator (CPT)
- Scheduled timers unit (TIM)
- Schedule/Synchronize/Order unit (SSO)
Used for both networking and non networking usecases
- Compression (upcoming in future variants of the silicons)
Resource provisioning examples
- A PF/VF with NIX-LF & NPA-LF resources works as a pure network device
- A PF/VF with CPT-LF resource works as a pure cyrpto offload device.
This admin function driver neither receives any data nor processes it i.e
no I/O, a configuration only driver.
PF/VFs communicates with AF via a shared memory region (mailbox). Upon
receiving requests from PF/VF, AF does resource provisioning and other
HW configuration. AF is always attached to host, but PF/VFs may be used
by host kernel itself, or attached to VMs or to userspace applications
like DPDK etc. So AF has to handle provisioning/configuration requests
sent by any device from any domain.
This patch series adds logic for the following
- RVU AF driver with functional blocks provisioning support.
- Mailbox infrastructure for communication between AF and PFs.
- CGX (MAC controller) driver which communicates with firmware for
managing physical ethernet interfaces. AF collects info from this
driver and forwards the same to the PF/VFs uaing these interfaces.
This is the first set of patches out of 80+ patches.
Changes from v8:
1 Removed unnecessary typecasts in entire series
- Suggested by David Miller
2 Added COMPILE_TEST to AF driver
- Suggested by Arnd Bergmann
3 Changed udelay() to usleep_range() in rvu_poll_reg
- Suggested by Arnd Bergmann
4 MSIX vector base IOMMU mapping is done using dma_map_resource()
API instead of dma_map_single() as it accepts physical address.

merged with AF driver module.
- Suggested by Arnd Bergmann
2 Added big-endian bitfields for CGX's kernel <=> firmware communication

1 Merged RVU admin function and CGX drivers into a single module
- Suggested by Arnd Bergmann
2 Pulled mbox communication APIs into a separate module to remove
admin function driver dependency in a VM where AF is not attached.
- Suggested by Arnd Bergmann

Added support in RVU AF driver to register for
CGX LMAC link status change events from firmware
and managing them. Processing part will be added
in followup patches.
- Introduced eventqueue for posting events from cgx lmac.
Queueing mechanism will ensure that events can be posted
and firmware can be acked immediately and hence event
reception and processing are decoupled.
- Events gets added to the queue by notification callback.
Notification callback is expected to be atomic, since it
is called from interrupt context.
- Events are dequeued and processed in a worker thread.

Currently driver registers to physical link notifications (of the device)
from Management firmware (MFW). Driver doesn't get notified if there's a
change in the virtual link e.g., link-flap on the peer PF interface.
Virtual link indication from MFW reflects the per PF link status instead
of the physical link.
The patch adds driver support for,
- Advertising the virtual link support to MFW.
- Handling the virtual link notification from MFW.
Please consider applying it to 'net-next'.

====================
pull-request: bpf-next 2018-10-08
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) sk_lookup_[tcp|udp] and sk_release helpers from Joe Stringer which allow
BPF programs to perform lookups for sockets in a network namespace. This would
allow programs to determine early on in processing whether the stack is
expecting to receive the packet, and perform some action (eg drop,
forward somewhere) based on this information.
2) per-cpu cgroup local storage from Roman Gushchin.
Per-cpu cgroup local storage is very similar to simple cgroup storage
except all the data is per-cpu. The main goal of per-cpu variant is to
implement super fast counters (e.g. packet counters), which don't require
neither lookups, neither atomic operations in a fast path.
The example of these hybrid counters is in selftests/bpf/netcnt_prog.c
3) allow HW offload of programs with BPF-to-BPF function calls from Quentin Monnet
4) support more than 64-byte key/value in HW offloaded BPF maps from Jakub Kicinski
5) rename of libbpf interfaces from Andrey Ignatov.
libbpf is maturing as a library and should follow good practices in
library design and implementation to play well with other libraries.
This patch set brings consistent naming convention to global symbols.
6) relicense libbpf as LGPL-2.1 OR BSD-2-Clause from Alexei Starovoitov
to let Apache2 projects use libbpf
7) various AF_XDP fixes from Björn and Magnus

16) Place conntrack ->error() handling in the ->packet() interface.
Patches from Florian Westphal.
17) Remove unused parameter in the pernet initialization path,
also from Florian.
18) Remove additional parameter to specify layer 3 protocol when

19) Shrink array of layer 4 protocol trackers, from Florian.
20) Check for linear skb only once from the ALG NAT mangling
codebase, from Taehee Yoo.

Until now, both Rx and Tx confirmation frames handled during
NAPI poll were counted toward the NAPI budget. However, Tx
confirmations are lighter to process than Rx frames, which can
skew the amount of work actually done inside one NAPI cycle.
Update the code to only count Rx frames toward the NAPI budget
and set a separate threshold on how many Tx conf frames can be
processed in one poll cycle.
The NAPI poll routine stops when either the budget is consumed
by Rx frames or when Tx confirmation frames reach this threshold.

rtnetlink: Add support for rigid checking of data in dump request
There are many use cases where a user wants to influence what is
returned in a dump for some rtnetlink command: one is wanting data
for a different namespace than the one the request is received and
another is limiting the amount of data returned in the dump to a
specific set of interest to userspace, reducing the cpu overhead of
both kernel and userspace. Unfortunately, the kernel has historically
not been strict with checking for the proper header or checking the
values passed in the header. This lenient implementation has allowed
iproute2 and other packages to pass any struct or data in the dump
request as long as the family is the first byte. For example, ifinfomsg
struct is used by iproute2 for all generic dump requests - links,
addresses, routes and rules when it is really only valid for link
requests.
There is 1 is example where the kernel deals with the wrong struct: link
dumps after VF support was added. Older iproute2 was sending rtgenmsg as
the header instead of ifinfomsg so a patch was added to try and detect
old userspace vs new:
e5eca6d41f53 ("rtnetlink: fix userspace API breakage for iproute2 < v3.9.0")
The latest example is Christian's patch set wanting to return addresses for
a target namespace. It guesses the header struct is an ifaddrmsg and if it
guesses wrong a netlink warning is generated in the kernel log on every
address dump which is unacceptable.
Another example where the kernel is a bit lenient is route dumps: iproute2
can send either a request with either ifinfomsg or a rtmsg as the header
struct, yet the kernel always treats the header as an rtmsg (see
inet_dump_fib and rtm_flags check). The header inconsistency impacts the
ability to add kernel side filters for route dumps - a necessary feature
for scale setups with 100k+ routes.
How to resolve the problem of not breaking old userspace yet be able to
move forward with new features such as kernel side filtering which are
crucial for efficient operation at high scale?
This patch set addresses the problem by adding a new socket flag,
NETLINK_DUMP_STRICT_CHK, that userspace can use with setsockopt to
request strict checking of headers and attributes on dump requests and
hence unlock the ability to use kernel side filters as they are added.
Kernel side, the dump handlers are updated to verify the message contains
at least the expected header struct:
RTM_GETLINK: ifinfomsg
RTM_GETADDR: ifaddrmsg
RTM_GETMULTICAST: ifaddrmsg
RTM_GETANYCAST: ifaddrmsg
RTM_GETADDRLABEL: ifaddrlblmsg
RTM_GETROUTE: rtmsg
RTM_GETSTATS: if_stats_msg
RTM_GETNEIGH: ndmsg
RTM_GETNEIGHTBL: ndtmsg
RTM_GETNSID: rtgenmsg
RTM_GETRULE: fib_rule_hdr
RTM_GETNETCONF: netconfmsg
RTM_GETMDB: br_port_msg
And then every field in the header struct should be 0 with the exception
of the family. There are a few exceptions to this rule where the kernel
already influences the data returned by values in the struct. Next the
message should not contain attributes unless the kernel implements
filtering for it. Any unexpected data causes the dump to fail with EINVAL.
If the new flag is honored by the kernel and the dump contents adjusted
by any data passed in the request, the dump handler can set the
NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED flag in the netlink message header.
For old userspace on new kernel there is no impact as all checks are
wrapped in a check on the new strict flag. For new userspace on old
kernel, the data in the headers and any appended attributes are
silently ignored though the setsockopt failing is the clue to userspace
the feature is not supported. New userspace on new kernel gets the
requested data dump.
iproute2 patches can be found here:
https://github.com/dsahern/iproute2 dump-enhancements
Major changes since v1
- inner header is supposed to be 4-bytes aligned. So for dumps that
should not have attributes appended changed the check to use:
if (nlmsg_attrlen(nlh, sizeof(hdr)))
Only impacts patches with headers that are not multiples of 4-bytes
(rtgenmsg, netconfmsg), but applied the change to all patches not
calling nlmsg_parse for consistency.
- Added nlmsg_parse_strict and nla_parse_strict for tighter control on
attribute parsing. There should be no unknown attribute types or extra
bytes.
- Moved validation to a helper in most cases
Changes since rfc-v2
- dropped the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED flag from target nsid dumps per
Jiri's objections
- changed the opt-in uapi from a netlink message flag to a socket
flag. setsockopt provides an api for userspace to definitively
know if the kernel supports strict checking on dumps.
- re-ordered patches to peel off the extack on dumps if needed to
keep this set size within limits
- misc cleanups in patches based on testing

Update rtnl_fdb_dump for strict data checking. If the flag is set,
the dump request is expected to have an ndmsg struct as the header
potentially followed by one or more attributes. Any data passed in the
header or as an attribute is taken as a request to influence the data
returned. Only values supported by the dump handler are allowed to be
non-0 or set in the request. At the moment only the NDA_IFINDEX and
NDA_MASTER attributes are supported.

Move the existing input checking for rtnl_fdb_dump into a helper,
valid_fdb_dump_legacy. This function will retain the current
logic that works around the 2 headers that userspace has been
allowed to send up to this point.

Existing code does not fail the dump if nlmsg_parse fails. That behavior
is kept for non-strict checking.

Add helper to check netlink message for route dumps. If the strict flag
is set the dump request is expected to have an rtmsg struct as the header.
All elements of the struct are expected to be 0 with the exception of
rtm_flags (which is used by both ipv4 and ipv6 dumps) and no attributes
can be appended. rtm_flags can only have RTM_F_CLONED and RTM_F_PREFIX
set.
Update inet_dump_fib, inet6_dump_fib, mpls_dump_routes, ipmr_rtm_dumproute,
and ip6mr_rtm_dumproute to call this helper if strict data checking is
enabled.
