In commit 365ad353c256 ("tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during
link congestion") we allowed senders to add exactly one list of extra
buffers to the link backlog queues during link congestion (aka
"oversubscription"). However, the criteria for when to stop adding
wakeup messages to the input queue when the overload abates is
inaccurate, and may cause starvation problems during very high load.
Currently, we stop adding wakeup messages after 10 total failed attempts
where we find that there is no space left in the backlog queue for a
certain importance level. The counter for this is accumulated across all
levels, which may lead the algorithm to leave the loop prematurely,
although there may still be plenty of space available at some levels.
The result is sometimes that messages near the wakeup queue tail are not
added to the input queue as they should be.
We now introduce a more exact algorithm, where we keep adding wakeup
messages to a level as long as the backlog queue has free slots for
the corresponding level, and stop at the moment there are no more such
slots or when there are no more wakeup messages to dequeue.
Fixes: 365ad35 ("tipc: reduce risk of user starvation during link congestion")

In user-space there's no way to distinguish why an mdb entry was deleted
and that is a problem for daemons which would like to keep the mdb in
sync with remote ends (e.g. mlag) but would also like to converge faster.
In almost all cases we'd like to age-out the remote entry for performance
and convergence reasons except when fast-leave is enabled. In that case we
want explicit immediate remote delete, thus add mdb flag which is set only
when the entry is being deleted due to fast-leave.

Johannes Berg says:
====================
We have a reasonably large number of changes:
* lots more HE (802.11ax) support, particularly things
relevant for the the AP side, but also mesh support
* debugfs cleanups from Greg
* some more work on extended key ID
* start using genl parallel_ops, as preparation for
weaning ourselves off RTNL and getting parallelism
* various other changes all over

In case of HE AP-STA link, ieee80211_send_nullfunc() will not
send the QOS NULL packet to check if AP is still associated.
In this case, probe_send_count will be non-zero and
ieee80211_sta_work() will later disassociate the AP, even
though no packet was ever sent.
Fix this by decrementing probe_send_count and not calling
ieee80211_send_nullfunc() in case of HE link, so that we
still wait for some time for the AP beacon to reappear and
don't disconnect right away.

Over time, we really need to get rid of all of our global locking.
One of the things needed is to use parallel_ops. This isn't really
the most important (RTNL is much more important) but OTOH we just
keep adding uses of genl_family_attrbuf() now. Use .parallel_ops to
disallow this.

Since virtio-vsock was introduced, the buffers filled by the host
and pushed to the guest using the vring, are directly queued in
a per-socket list. These buffers are preallocated by the guest
with a fixed size (4 KB).
The maximum amount of memory used by each socket should be
controlled by the credit mechanism.
The default credit available per-socket is 256 KB, but if we use
only 1 byte per packet, the guest can queue up to 262144 of 4 KB
buffers, using up to 1 GB of memory per-socket. In addition, the
guest will continue to fill the vring with new 4 KB free buffers
to avoid starvation of other sockets.
This patch mitigates this issue copying the payload of small
packets (< 128 bytes) into the buffer of last packet queued, in
order to avoid wasting memory.

2. add peers with the other addrs into this asoc one by one.

Now __sctp_connect() is called by __sctp_setsockopt_connectx() and
sctp_inet_connect(), the latter has done addr_size check with size
of sa_family_t.
In the next patch to clean up __sctp_connect(), we will remove
addr_size check with size of sa_family_t from __sctp_connect()
for the 1st address.
So before doing that, __sctp_setsockopt_connectx() should do
this check first, as sctp_inet_connect() does.

'addr' passed to sctp_transport_init is not always a whole size
of union sctp_addr, like the path:
sctp_sendmsg() ->
sctp_sendmsg_new_asoc() ->
sctp_assoc_add_peer() ->
sctp_transport_new() -> sctp_transport_init()
In the next patches, we will also pass the address length of data
only to sctp_assoc_add_peer().
So sctp_transport_init() should copy the only available data from
addr to peer->ipaddr, instead of 'peer->ipaddr = *addr' which may
cause slab-out-of-bounds.

rxkad sometimes triggers a warning about oversized stack frames when
building with clang for a 32-bit architecture:
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:243:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_secure_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
net/rxrpc/rxkad.c:501:12: error: stack frame size of 1088 bytes in function 'rxkad_verify_packet' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
The problem is the combination of SYNC_SKCIPHER_REQUEST_ON_STACK() in
rxkad_verify_packet()/rxkad_secure_packet() with the relatively large
scatterlist in rxkad_verify_packet_1()/rxkad_secure_packet_encrypt().
The warning does not show up when using gcc, which does not inline the
functions as aggressively, but the problem is still the same.
Allocate the cipher buffers from the slab instead, caching the allocated
packet crypto request memory used for DATA packet crypto in the rxrpc_call
struct.

-EOPNOTSUPP.
Even though we don't have any ioctl() functions on socket/network layer we need

to the network driver layer.
This patch fixes the wrong return codes in the CAN network layer protocols.

HE allows peers to negotiate the aggregation fragmentation level to be used
during transmission. The level can be 1-3. The Ext element is added behind
the ADDBA request inside the action frame. The responder will then reply
with the same level or a lower one if the requested one is not supported.
This patch only handles the negotiation part as the ADDBA frames get passed
to the ATH11k firmware, which does the rest of the magic for us aswell as
generating the requests.

When associated BSS completes channel switch procedure, its channel
record needs to be updated. The existing mac80211 solution was
extended to cfg80211 in commit 5dc8cdce1d72 ("mac80211/cfg80211:
update bss channel on channel switch").
However that solution still appears to be incomplete as it may lead
to duplicated scan entries for associated BSS after channel switch.
The root cause of the problem is as follows. Each BSS entry is
included into the following data structures:
- bss list rdev->bss_list
- bss search tree rdev->bss_tree
Updating BSS channel record without rebuilding bss_tree may break
tree search since cmp_bss considers all of the following: channel,
bssid, ssid. When BSS channel is updated, but its location in bss_tree
is not updated, then subsequent search operations may fail to locate
this BSS since they will be traversing bss_tree in wrong direction.
As a result, for scan performed after associated BSS channel switch,
cfg80211_bss_update may add the second entry for the same BSS to both
bss_list and bss_tree, rather then update the existing one.
To summarize, if BSS channel needs to be updated, then bss_tree should
be rebuilt in order to put updated BSS entry into a proper location.
This commit suggests the following straightforward solution:
- if new entry has been already created for BSS after channel switch,
then use its IEs to update known BSS entry and then remove new
entry completely
- use rb_erase/rb_insert_bss reinstall updated BSS in bss_tree
- for nontransmit BSS entry, the whole transmit BSS hierarchy
is updated

The new function is named ieee80211_tx_dequeue_ni() just as all other
from-process-context versions found in mac80211.
The documentation of ieee80211_tx_dequeue() is also updated so it
mentions that the function should not be called from process context.

Instead of open coding the CCM aead mode in the driver, and invoking
the AES block cipher block by block, use a ccm(aes) aead transform
which already encapsulates this functionality. This is a cleaner use
of the crypto API, and permits optimized implementations to be used,
which are typically much faster and deal more efficiently with the
SIMD register file, which usually needs to be preserved/restored in
order to use special AES instructions.

The remove_sta_debugfs callback in struct rate_control_ops is no longer
used by any driver, as there is no need for it (the debugfs directory is
already removed recursivly by the mac80211 core.) Because no one needs
it, just remove it to keep anyone else from accidentally using it in the
future.

This low level driver can find it useful to get the vif
when a remain on channel session is cancelled.
iwlwifi will need this soon.

In conjunction with changing the interfaces' MTU (e.g. especially in
the case of a bonding) where the TIPC links are brought up and down
in a short time, a couple of issues were detected with the current link
changeover mechanism:
1) When one link is up but immediately forced down again, the failover
procedure will be carried out in order to failover all the messages in
the link's transmq queue onto the other working link. The link and node
state is also set to FAILINGOVER as part of the process. The message
will be transmited in form of a FAILOVER_MSG, so its size is plus of 40
bytes (= the message header size). There is no problem if the original
message size is not larger than the link's MTU - 40, and indeed this is
the max size of a normal payload messages. However, in the situation
above, because the link has just been up, the messages in the link's
transmq are almost SYNCH_MSGs which had been generated by the link
synching procedure, then their size might reach the max value already!
When the FAILOVER_MSG is built on the top of such a SYNCH_MSG, its size
will exceed the link's MTU. As a result, the messages are dropped
silently and the failover procedure will never end up, the link will
not be able to exit the FAILINGOVER state, so cannot be re-established.
2) The same scenario above can happen more easily in case the MTU of
the links is set differently or when changing. In that case, as long as
a large message in the failure link's transmq queue was built and
fragmented with its link's MTU > the other link's one, the issue will
happen (there is no need of a link synching in advance).
3) The link synching procedure also faces with the same issue but since
the link synching is only started upon receipt of a SYNCH_MSG, dropping
the message will not result in a state deadlock, but it is not expected
as design.
The 1) & 3) issues are resolved by the last commit that only a dummy
SYNCH_MSG (i.e. without data) is generated at the link synching, so the
size of a FAILOVER_MSG if any then will never exceed the link's MTU.
For the 2) issue, the only solution is trying to fragment the messages
in the failure link's transmq queue according to the working link's MTU
so they can be failovered then. A new function is made to accomplish
this, it will still be a TUNNEL PROTOCOL/FAILOVER MSG but if the
original message size is too large, it will be fragmented & reassembled
at the receiving side.
