Implement LINKINFO_GET netlink request to get basic link settings provided
by ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS and ETHTOOL_GSET ioctl commands.
This request provides settings not directly related to autonegotiation and
link mode selection: physical port, phy MDIO address, MDI(-X) status,
MDI(-X) control and transceiver.
LINKINFO_GET request can be used with NLM_F_DUMP (without device
identification) to request the information for all devices in current
network namespace providing the data.

Requests a contents of one or more string sets, i.e. indexed arrays of
strings; this information is provided by ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO and
ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS commands of ioctl interface. Unlike ioctl interface, all
information can be retrieved with one request and mulitple string sets can
be requested at once.
There are three types of requests:
- no NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get "global" stringsets
- no NLM_F_DUMP, with device: get string sets related to the device
- NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get device related string sets for all devices
Client can request either all string sets of given type (global or device
related) or only specific sets. With ETHTOOL_A_STRSET_COUNTS flag set, only
set sizes (numbers of strings) are returned.

The ethtool netlink code uses common framework for passing arbitrary
length bit sets to allow future extensions. A bitset can be a list (only
one bitmap) or can consist of value and mask pair (used e.g. when client
want to modify only some bits). A bitset can use one of two formats:
verbose (bit by bit) or compact.
Verbose format consists of bitset size (number of bits), list flag and
an array of bit nests, telling which bits are part of the list or which
bits are in the mask and which of them are to be set. In requests, bits
can be identified by index (position) or by name. In replies, kernel
provides both index and name. Verbose format is suitable for "one shot"
applications like standard ethtool command as it avoids the need to
either keep bit names (e.g. link modes) in sync with kernel or having to
add an extra roundtrip for string set request (e.g. for private flags).
Compact format uses one (list) or two (value/mask) arrays of 32-bit
words to store the bitmap(s). It is more suitable for long running
applications (ethtool in monitor mode or network management daemons)
which can retrieve the names once and then pass only compact bitmaps to
save space.
Userspace requests can use either format; ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS
flag in request header tells kernel which format to use in reply.
Notifications always use compact format.
As some code uses arrays of unsigned long for internal representation and
some arrays of u32 (or even a single u32), two sets of parse/compose
helpers are introduced. To avoid code duplication, helpers for unsigned
long arrays are implemented as wrappers around helpers for u32 arrays.
There are two reasons for this choice: (1) u32 arrays are more frequent in
ethtool code and (2) unsigned long array can be always interpreted as an
u32 array on little endian 64-bit and all 32-bit architectures while we
would need special handling for odd number of u32 words in the opposite
direction.

This patch introduces a sysctl knob "net.ipv4.tcp_no_ssthresh_metrics_save"
that disables TCP ssthresh metrics cache by default. Other parts of TCP
metrics cache, e.g. rtt, cwnd, remain unchanged.
As modern networks becoming more and more dynamic, TCP metrics cache
today often causes more harm than benefits. For example, the same IP
address is often shared by different subscribers behind NAT in residential
networks. Even if the IP address is not shared by different users,
caching the slow-start threshold of a previous short flow using loss-based
congestion control (e.g. cubic) often causes the future longer flows of
the same network path to exit slow-start prematurely with abysmal
throughput.
Caching ssthresh is very risky and can lead to terrible performance.
Therefore it makes sense to make disabling ssthresh caching by
default and opt-in for specific networks by the administrators.
This practice also has worked well for several years of deployment with
CUBIC congestion control at Google.

The main changes are:
1) Addition of BPF trampoline which works as a bridge between kernel functions,
BPF programs and other BPF programs along with two new use cases: i) fentry/fexit

This is a new feature defined in section 5 of rfc7829: "Primary Path
Switchover". By introducing a new tunable parameter:
Primary.Switchover.Max.Retrans (PSMR)
The primary path will be changed to another active path when the path
error counter on the old primary path exceeds PSMR, so that "the SCTP
sender is allowed to continue data transmission on a new working path
even when the old primary destination address becomes active again".
This patch is to add this tunable parameter, 'ps_retrans' per netns,
sock, asoc and transport. It also allows a user to change ps_retrans
per netns by sysctl, and ps_retrans per sock/asoc/transport will be
initialized with it.
The check will be done in sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike() when this
feature is enabled.
Note this feature is disabled by initializing 'ps_retrans' per netns
as 0xffff by default, and its value can't be less than 'pf_retrans'
when changing by sysctl.
v3->v4:
- add define SCTP_PS_RETRANS_MAX 0xffff, and use it on extra2 of
sysctl 'ps_retrans'.
- add a new entry for ps_retrans on ip-sysctl.txt.

As said in rfc7829, section 3, point 12:
The SCTP stack SHOULD expose the PF state of its destination
addresses to the ULP as well as provide the means to notify the
ULP of state transitions of its destination addresses from
active to PF, and vice versa. However, it is recommended that
an SCTP stack implementing SCTP-PF also allows for the ULP to be
kept ignorant of the PF state of its destinations and the
associated state transitions, thus allowing for retention of the
simpler state transition model of [RFC4960] in the ULP.
Not only does it allow to expose the PF state to ULP, but also
allow to ignore sctp-pf to ULP.
So this patch is to add pf_expose per netns, sock and asoc. And in
sctp_assoc_control_transport(), ulp_notify will be set to false if
asoc->expose is not 'enabled' in next patch.
It also allows a user to change pf_expose per netns by sysctl, and
pf_expose per sock and asoc will be initialized with it.
Note that pf_expose also works for SCTP_GET_PEER_ADDR_INFO sockopt,
to not allow a user to query the state of a sctp-pf peer address
when pf_expose is 'disabled', as said in section 7.3.
v1->v2:
- Fix a build warning noticed by Nathan Chancellor.
v2->v3:
- set pf_expose to UNUSED by default to keep compatible with old
applications.
v3->v4:
- add a new entry for pf_expose on ip-sysctl.txt, as Marcelo suggested.
- change this patch to 1/5, and move sctp_assoc_control_transport
change into 2/5, as Marcelo suggested.
- use SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET instead of SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNUSED, and
set SCTP_PF_EXPOSE_UNSET to 0 in enum, as Marcelo suggested.

This allows user to specify one large contiguous buffer with data
which then will be split automagically into multiple UDP packets

Add layer 3 generic packet exception traps that can report trapped
packets and documentation of the traps.
Unlike drop traps, these exception traps also need to inject the packet
to the kernel's receive path. For example, a packet that was trapped due
to unreachable neighbour need to be injected into the kernel so that it
will trigger an ARP request or a neighbour solicitation message.

The only slightly tricky merge conflict was the netdevsim because the
mutex locking fix overlapped a lot of driver reload reorganization.
The rest were (relatively) trivial in nature.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-11-01
This series contains updates to e1000, igb, igc, ixgbe, i40e and driver
documentation.
Lyude Paul fixes an issue where a fatal read error occurs when the
device is unplugged from the machine. So change the read error into a
warn while the device is still present.
Manfred Rudigier found that the i350 device was not apart of the "Media
Auto Sense" feature, yet the device supports it. So add the missing
i350 device to the check and fix an issue where the media auto sense
would flip/flop when no cable was connected to the port causing spurious
kernel log messages.
I fixed an issue where the fix to resolve receive buffer starvation was
applied in more than one place in the driver, one being the incorrect
location in the i40e driver.
Wenwen Wang fixes a potential memory leak in e1000 where allocated
memory is not properly cleaned up in one of the error paths.
Jonathan Neuschäfer cleans up the driver documentation to be consistent
and remove the footnote reference, since the footnote no longer exists in
the documentation.
Igor Pylypiv cleans up a duplicate clearing of a bit, no need to clear
it twice.
v2: Fixed alignment issue in patch 3 of the series based on community
feedback.

tcp_max_syn_backlog default value depends on memory size
and TCP ehash size. Before this patch, the max value
was 2048 [1], which is considered too small nowadays.
Increase it to 4096 to match the recent SOMAXCONN change.
[1] This is with TCP ehash size being capped to 524288 buckets.

SOMAXCONN is /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn default value.
It has been defined as 128 more than 20 years ago.
Since it caps the listen() backlog values, the very small value has
caused numerous problems over the years, and many people had
to raise it on their hosts after beeing hit by problems.
Google has been using 1024 for at least 15 years, and we increased
this to 4096 after TCP listener rework has been completed, more than
4 years ago. We got no complain of this change breaking any
legacy application.
Many applications indeed setup a TCP listener with listen(fd, -1);
meaning they let the system select the backlog.
Raising SOMAXCONN lowers chance of the port being unavailable under
even small SYNFLOOD attack, and reduces possibilities of side channel
vulnerabilities.

work without creating a total mess.

Some of the marvell switches have bits controlling the hash algorithm
the ATU uses for MAC addresses. In some industrial settings, where all
the devices are from the same manufacture, and hence use the same OUI,
the default hashing algorithm is not optimal. Allow the other
algorithms to be selected via devlink.

pull-request: bpf-next 2019-10-27
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
We've added 52 non-merge commits during the last 11 day(s) which contain
a total of 65 files changed, 2604 insertions(+), 1100 deletions(-).
The main changes are:
1) Revolutionize BPF tracing by using in-kernel BTF to type check BPF
assembly code. The work here teaches BPF verifier to recognize
kfree_skb()'s first argument as 'struct sk_buff *' in tracepoints
such that verifier allows direct use of bpf_skb_event_output() helper
used in tc BPF et al (w/o probing memory access) that dumps skb data
into perf ring buffer. Also add direct loads to probe memory in order
to speed up/replace bpf_probe_read() calls, from Alexei Starovoitov.
2) Big batch of changes to improve libbpf and BPF kselftests. Besides
others: generalization of libbpf's CO-RE relocation support to now
also include field existence relocations, revamp the BPF kselftest
Makefile to add test runner concept allowing to exercise various
ways to build BPF programs, and teach bpf_object__open() and friends
to automatically derive BPF program type/expected attach type from
section names to ease their use, from Andrii Nakryiko.
3) Fix deadlock in stackmap's build-id lookup on rq_lock(), from Song Liu.
4) Allow to read BTF as raw data from bpftool. Most notable use case
is to dump /sys/kernel/btf/vmlinux through this, from Jiri Olsa.
5) Use bpf_redirect_map() helper in libbpf's AF_XDP helper prog which
manages to improve "rx_drop" performance by ~4%., from Björn Töpel.
6) Fix to restore the flow dissector after reattach BPF test and also
fix error handling in bpf_helper_defs.h generation, from Jakub Sitnicki.
7) Improve verifier's BTF ctx access for use outside of raw_tp, from
Martin KaFai Lau.
8) Improve documentation for AF_XDP with new sections and to reflect
latest features, from Magnus Karlsson.
9) Add back 'version' section parsing to libbpf for old kernels, from
John Fastabend.
10) Fix strncat bounds error in libbpf's libbpf_prog_type_by_name(),
from KP Singh.
11) Turn on -mattr=+alu32 in LLVM by default for BPF kselftests in order
to improve insn coverage for built BPF progs, from Yonghong Song.
12) Misc minor cleanups and fixes, from various others.

The ppp_idle structure is defined in terms of __kernel_time_t, which is
defined as 'long' on all architectures, and this usage is not affected
by the y2038 problem since it transports a time interval rather than an
absolute time.
However, the ppp user space defines the same structure as time_t, which
may be 64-bit wide on new libc versions even on 32-bit architectures.
It's easy enough to just handle both possible structure layouts on
all architectures, to deal with the possibility that a user space ppp
implementation comes with its own ppp_idle structure definition, as well
as to document the fact that the driver is y2038-safe.
Doing this also avoids the need for a special compat mode translation,
since 32-bit and 64-bit kernels now support the same interfaces. The old
32-bit structure is also available on native 64-bit architectures now,
but this is harmless.
