Pull char/misc driver fixes from Greg KH:
"Here are two bugfixes that resolve some reported issues. One in the
firmware loader, that should fix the much-reported problem of crashes
with it. The other is a hyperv fix for a reported regression.
Both have been in linux-next for a week or so with no reported issues"

| Vxlan COLLECT_METADATA mode today solves the per-vni netdev scalability problem in l3 networks. It expects all forwarding information to be present in dst_metadata. This patch series enhances collect metadata mode to include the case where only vni is present in dst_metadata, and the vxlan driver can then use the rest of the forwarding information datbase to make forwarding decisions. There is no change to default COLLECT_METADATA behaviour. These changes only apply to COLLECT_METADATA when used with the bridging use-case with a special dst_metadata tunnel info flag (eg: where vxlan device is part of a bridge). For all this to work, the vxlan driver will need to now support a single fdb table hashed by mac + vni. This series essentially makes this happen. use-case and workflow: vxlan collect metadata device participates in bridging vlan to vn-segments. Bridge driver above the vxlan device, sends the vni corresponding to the vlan in the dst_metadata. vxlan driver will lookup forwarding database with (mac + vni) for the required remote destination information to forward the packet. Changes introduced by this patch: - allow learning and forwarding database state in vxlan netdev in COLLECT_METADATA mode. Current behaviour is not changed by default. tunnel info flag IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE is used to support the new bridge friendly mode. - A single fdb table hashed by (mac, vni) to allow fdb entries with multiple vnis in the same fdb table - rx path already has the vni - tx path expects a vni in the packet with dst_metadata - prior to this series, fdb remote_dsts carried remote vni and the vxlan device carrying the fdb table represented the source vni. With the vxlan device now representing multiple vnis, this patch adds a src vni attribute to the fdb entry. The remote vni already uses NDA_VNI attribute. This patch introduces NDA_SRC_VNI netlink attribute to represent the src vni in a multi vni fdb table. iproute2 example (patched and pruned iproute2 output to just show relevant fdb entries): example shows same host mac learnt on two vni's. before (netdev per vni): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self after this patch with collect metadata in bridged mode (single netdev): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| This module is responsible for the ife encapsulation protocol encode/decode logics. That module can: - ife_encode: encode skb and reserve space for the ife meta header - ife_decode: decode skb and extract the meta header size - ife_tlv_meta_encode - encodes one tlv entry into the reserved ife header space. - ife_tlv_meta_decode - decodes one tlv entry from the packet - ife_tlv_meta_next - advance to the next tlv Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Yotam Gigi <yotamg@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: Roman Mashak <mrv@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| 2017-02-02 | unix: add ioctl to open a unix socket file with O_PATH | Andrey Vagin | 1 | -0/+2 | |
| This ioctl opens a file to which a socket is bound and returns a file descriptor. The caller has to have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the socket network namespace. Currently it is impossible to get a path and a mount point for a socket file. socket_diag reports address, device ID and inode number for unix sockets. An address can contain a relative path or a file may be moved somewhere. And these properties say nothing about a mount namespace and a mount point of a socket file. With the introduced ioctl, we can get a path by reading /proc/self/fd/X and get mnt_id from /proc/self/fdinfo/X. In CRIU we are going to use this ioctl to dump and restore unix socket. Here is an example how it can be used: $ strace -e socket,bind,ioctl ./test /tmp/test_sock socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 3 bind(3, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="test_sock"}, 11) = 0 ioctl(3, SIOCUNIXFILE, 0) = 4 ^Z $ ss -a | grep test_sock u_str LISTEN 0 1 test_sock 17798 * 0 $ ls -l /proc/760/fd/{3,4} lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 1 09:41 3 -> 'socket:[17798]' l--------- 1 root root 64 Feb 1 09:41 4 -> /tmp/test_sock $ cat /proc/760/fdinfo/4 pos: 0 flags: 012000000 mnt_id: 40 $ cat /proc/self/mountinfo | grep "^40\s" 40 19 0:37 / /tmp rw shared:23 - tmpfs tmpfs rw Signed-off-by: Andrei Vagin <avagin@openvz.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
