Add new transport flag to allow sockets to confirm neighbour.
When same struct dst_entry can be used for many different
neighbours we can not use it for pending confirmations.
The flag is propagated from transport to every packet.
It is reset when cached dst is reset.

Allow board support code to collect pre-declarations for MDIO devices by
registering them with mdiobus_register_board_info(). SPI and I2C buses
have a similar feature, we were missing this for MDIO devices, but this
is particularly useful for e.g: MDIO-connected switches which need to
provide their port layout (often board-specific) to a MDIO Ethernet
switch driver.

Allow drivers to use the new DSA API with platform data. Most of the
code in net/dsa/dsa2.c does not rely so much on device_nodes and can get
the same information from platform_data instead.
We purposely do not support distributed configurations with platform
data, so drivers should be providing a pointer to a 'struct
dsa_chip_data' structure if they wish to communicate per-port layout.
Multiple CPUs port could potentially be supported and dsa_chip_data is
extended to receive up to one reference to an upstream network device
per port described by a dsa_chip_data structure.
dsa_dev_to_net_device() increments the network device's reference count,
so we intentionally call dev_put() to be consistent with the DT-enabled
path, until we have a generic notifier based solution.

For XDP we will need to reset the queues to allow for buffer headroom
to be configured. In order to do this we need to essentially run the
freeze()/restore() code path. Unfortunately the locking requirements
between the freeze/restore and reset paths are different however so
we can not simply reuse the code.
This patch refactors the code path and adds a reset helper routine.

Some CAN controllers don't implement a FIFO in hardware, but fill their
mailboxes in a particular order (from lowest to highest or highest to lowest).
This makes problems to read the frames in the correct order from the hardware,
as new frames might be filled into just read (low) mailboxes. This gets worse,
when following new frames are received into not read (higher) mailboxes.
On the bright side some these CAN controllers put a timestamp on each received
CAN frame. This patch adds support to offload CAN frames in interrupt context,
order them by timestamp and then transmitted in a NAPI context.

Change ip6_route_multipath_add to send one notifciation with the full
route encoded with RTA_MULTIPATH instead of a series of individual routes.
This is done by adding a skip_notify flag to the nl_info struct. The
flag is used to skip sending of the notification in the fib code that
actually inserts the route. Once the full route has been added, a
notification is generated with all nexthops.
ip6_route_multipath_add handles 3 use cases: new routes, route replace,
and route append. The multipath notification generated needs to be
consistent with the order of the nexthops and it should be consistent
with the order in a FIB dump which means the route with the first nexthop
needs to be used as the route reference. For the first 2 cases (new and
replace), a reference to the route used to send the notification is
obtained by saving the first route added. For the append case, the last
route added is used to loop back to its first sibling route which is
the first nexthop in the multipath route.

IPv4 allows multipath routes to be deleted using just the prefix and
length. For example:
$ ip ro ls vrf red
unreachable default metric 8192
1.1.1.0/24
nexthop via 10.100.1.254 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 10.11.200.2 dev eth11.200 weight 1
10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3
10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3
$ ip ro del 1.1.1.0/24 vrf red
$ ip ro ls vrf red
unreachable default metric 8192
10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3
10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3
The same notation does not work with IPv6 because of how multipath routes
are implemented for IPv6. For IPv6 only the first nexthop of a multipath
route is deleted if the request contains only a prefix and length. This
leads to unnecessary complexity in userspace dealing with IPv6 multipath
routes.
This patch allows all nexthops to be deleted without specifying each one
in the delete request. Internally, this is done by walking the sibling
list of the route matching the specifications given (prefix, length,
metric, protocol, etc).
$ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:200::/120 via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 metric 1024 pref medium
2001:db8:200::/120 via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 metric 1024 pref medium
...
$ ip -6 ro del vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120
$ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
...
Because IPv6 allows individual nexthops to be deleted without deleting
the entire route, the ip6_route_multipath_del and non-multipath code
path (ip6_route_del) have to be discriminated so that all nexthops are
only deleted for the latter case. This is done by making the existing
fc_type in fib6_config a u16 and then adding a new u16 field with
fc_delete_all_nh as the first bit.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree, they are:
1) Stash ctinfo 3-bit field into pointer to nf_conntrack object from
sk_buff so we only access one single cacheline in the conntrack
hotpath. Patchset from Florian Westphal.
2) Don't leak pointer to internal structures when exporting x_tables
ruleset back to userspace, from Willem DeBruijn. This includes new
helper functions to copy data to userspace such as xt_data_to_user()
as well as conversions of our ip_tables, ip6_tables and arp_tables
clients to use it. Not surprinsingly, ebtables requires an ad-hoc
update. There is also a new field in x_tables extensions to indicate
the amount of bytes that we copy to userspace.
3) Add nf_log_all_netns sysctl: This new knob allows you to enable
logging via nf_log infrastructure for all existing netnamespaces.
Given the effort to provide pernet syslog has been discontinued,
let's provide a way to restore logging using netfilter kernel logging
facilities in trusted environments. Patch from Michal Kubecek.
4) Validate SCTP checksum from conntrack helper, from Davide Caratti.
5) Merge UDPlite conntrack and NAT helpers into UDP, this was mostly
a copy&paste from the original helper, from Florian Westphal.
6) Reset netfilter state when duplicating packets, also from Florian.
7) Remove unnecessary check for broadcast in IPv6 in pkttype match and
nft_meta, from Liping Zhang.
8) Add missing code to deal with loopback packets from nft_meta when
used by the netdev family, also from Liping.
9) Several cleanups on nf_tables, one to remove unnecessary check from
the netlink control plane path to add table, set and stateful objects
and code consolidation when unregister chain hooks, from Gao Feng.
10) Fix harmless reference counter underflow in IPVS that, however,
results in problems with the introduction of the new refcount_t
type, from David Windsor.
11) Enable LIBCRC32C from nf_ct_sctp instead of nf_nat_sctp,
from Davide Caratti.
12) Missing documentation on nf_tables uapi header, from Liping Zhang.
13) Use rb_entry() helper in xt_connlimit, from Geliang Tang.

This introduces a infrastructure for management of linear priority
areas. Priority order in an array matters, however order of items inside
a priority group does not matter.
As an initial implementation, L-sort algorithm is used. It is quite

follow-up. The infrastructure is prepared for other algos.
Alongside this, a testing module is introduced as well.

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 vxlan1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self

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

Commit 69b34fb996b2 ("netfilter: xt_LOG: add net namespace support for
xt_LOG") disabled logging packets using the LOG target from non-init
namespaces. The motivation was to prevent containers from flooding
kernel log of the host. The plan was to keep it that way until syslog
namespace implementation allows containers to log in a safe way.
However, the work on syslog namespace seems to have hit a dead end
somewhere in 2013 and there are users who want to use xt_LOG in all
network namespaces. This patch allows to do so by setting
/proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log_all_netns
to a nonzero value. This sysctl is only accessible from init_net so that
one cannot switch the behaviour from inside a container.

Currently, the ip_vs_dest cache frees ip_vs_dest objects when their
reference count becomes < 0. Aside from not being semantically sound,
this is problematic for the new type refcount_t, which will be introduced
shortly in a separate patch. refcount_t is the new kernel type for
holding reference counts, and provides overflow protection and a
constrained interface relative to atomic_t (the type currently being
used for kernel reference counts).
Per Julian Anastasov: "The problem is that dest_trash currently holds
deleted dests (unlinked from RCU lists) with refcnt=0." Changing
dest_trash to hold dest with refcnt=1 will allow us to free ip_vs_dest
structs when their refcnt=0, in ip_vs_dest_put_and_free().

After this change conntrack operations (lookup, creation, matching from
ruleset) only access one instead of two sk_buff cache lines.
This works for normal conntracks because those are allocated from a slab
that guarantees hw cacheline or 8byte alignment (whatever is larger)
so the 3 bits needed for ctinfo won't overlap with nf_conn addresses.
Template allocation now does manual address alignment (see previous change)
on arches that don't have sufficent kmalloc min alignment.
Some spots intentionally use skb->_nfct instead of skb_nfct() helpers,
this is to avoid undoing the skb_nfct() use when we remove untracked
conntrack object in the future.

an 8 byte boundary since we will need the lower 3bits to store nfctinfo.
Conntrack templates are allocated via kmalloc.
kbuild test robot reported
BUILD_BUG_ON failed: NFCT_INFOMASK >= ARCH_KMALLOC_MINALIGN
on v1 of this patchset, so not all platforms meet this requirement.
Do manual alignment if needed, the alignment offset is stored in the
nf_conn entry protocol area. This works because templates are not
handed off to L4 protocol trackers.

Add a helper to assign a nf_conn entry and the ctinfo bits to an sk_buff.
This avoids changing code in followup patch that merges skb->nfct and
skb->nfctinfo into skb->_nfct.

Followup patch renames skb->nfct and changes its type so add a helper to
avoid intrusive rename change later.

Next patch makes direct skb->nfct access illegal, reduce noise
in next patch by using accessors we already have.

It is never accessed for reading and the only places that write to it
are the icmp(6) handlers, which also set skb->nfct (and skb->nfctinfo).
The conntrack core specifically checks for attached skb->nfct after
->error() invocation and returns early in this case.
