David S. Miller c726095ec7 vlan: Fix header ops passthru when doing TX VLAN offload.
[ Upstream commit 2205369a314e12fcec4781cc73ac9c08fc2b47de ]

When the vlan code detects that the real device can do TX VLAN offloads
in hardware, it tries to arrange for the real device's header_ops to
be invoked directly.

But it does so illegally, by simply hooking the real device's
header_ops up to the VLAN device.

This doesn't work because we will end up invoking a set of header_ops
routines which expect a device type which matches the real device, but
will see a VLAN device instead.

Fix this by providing a pass-thru set of header_ops which will arrange
to pass the proper real device instead.

To facilitate this add a dev_rebuild_header().  There are
implementations which provide a ->cache and ->create but not a
->rebuild (f.e. PLIP).  So we need a helper function just like
dev_hard_header() to avoid crashes.

Use this helper in the one existing place where the
header_ops->rebuild was being invoked, the neighbour code.

With lots of help from Florian Westphal.

Nicolas Schichan 5dbe7c178d net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.
When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the
rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue
to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a
SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to
the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the
writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the
devnet_rename_seq sequence.

This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name())
and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and
SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt.

The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid
spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become
even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying
the access to give the writer process a chance to finish.

The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the
reader process in the contended case, but this is better than
deadlocking the system.

Eric Dumazet b0ce3508b2 bonding: allow TSO being set on bonding master
In some situations, we need to disable TSO on bonding slaves.

bonding device automatically unset TSO in bond_fix_features(), and
performance is not good because :

1) We consume more cpu cycles.

2) GSO segmentation has some bugs leading to out of order TCP packets
if this segmentation is done before virtual device. This particular
problem will be addressed in a separate patch.

This patch allows TSO being set/unset on the bonding master,
so that GSO segmentation is done after bonding layer.

Vlad Yasevich 4cd729b042 net: add dev_uc_sync_multiple() and dev_mc_sync_multiple() api
The current implementation of dev_uc_sync/unsync() assumes that there is
a strict 1-to-1 relationship between the source and destination of the sync.
In other words, once an address has been synced to a destination device, it
will not be synced to any other device through the sync API.
However, there are some virtual devices that aggreate a number of lower
devices and need to sync addresses to all of them.  The current
API falls short there.

This patch introduces a new dev_uc_sync_multiple() api that can be called
in the above circumstances and allows sync to work for every invocation.

Vlad Yasevich 4543fbefe6 net: count hw_addr syncs so that unsync works properly.
A few drivers use dev_uc_sync/unsync to synchronize the
address lists from master down to slave/lower devices.  In
some cases (bond/team) a single address list is synched down
to multiple devices.  At the time of unsync, we have a leak
in these lower devices, because "synced" is treated as a
boolean and the address will not be unsynced for anything after
the first device/call.

Treat "synced" as a count (same as refcount) and allow all
unsync calls to work.

nikolay@redhat.com 8a7fbfab4b netxen: write IP address to firmware when using bonding
This patch allows LRO aggregation on bonded devices that contain an
NX3031 device. It also adds a for_each_netdev_in_bond_rcu(bond, slave)
macro which executes for each slave that has bond as master.

V3: After testing and discussing this with Rajesh, I decided to keep the
    vlan ip cache and just rename it to ip_cache since it will store bond
    ip addresses too. A new master flag has been added to the ip cache to
    denote that the address has been added because of a master device.
    I've taken care of the enslave/release cases by checking for various
    combinations of events and flags (e.g. netxen has a master, it's a
    bond master and it's not marked as a slave means it is being enslaved
    and is dev_open()ed in bond_enslave).
    I've changed netxen_free_ip_list() to have a "master" parameter which
    causes all IP addresses marked as master to be deleted (used when a
    netxen is being released). I've made the patch use the new upper
    device API as well. The following cases were tested:
    - bond -> netxen
    - vlan -> netxen
    - vlan -> bond -> netxen

V2: Remove local ip caching, retrieve addresses dynamically and
    restore them if necessary.

Note: Tested with NX3031 adapter.

Since:

Author: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
Date:   Sun Sep 16 09:17:26 2012 +0000

    net: provide a default dev->ethtool_ops

wireless core does not correctly assign ethtool_ops.

After alloc_netdev*() call, some cfg80211 drivers provide they own
ethtool_ops, but some do not. For them, wireless core provide generic
cfg80211_ethtool_ops, which is assigned in NETDEV_REGISTER notify call:

        if (!dev->ethtool_ops)
                dev->ethtool_ops = &cfg80211_ethtool_ops;

But after Eric's commit, dev->ethtool_ops is no longer NULL (on cfg80211
drivers without custom ethtool_ops), but points to &default_ethtool_ops.

In order to fix the problem, provide function which will overwrite
default_ethtool_ops and use it by wireless core.

for devices like dummy, gre, team and so on.

Eric Dumazet 30e6c9fa93 net: devnet_rename_seq should be a seqcount
Using a seqlock for devnet_rename_seq is not a good idea,
as device_rename() can sleep.

As we hold RTNL, we dont need a protection for writers,
and only need a seqcount so that readers can catch a change done
by a writer.

Bug added in commit c91f6df2db (sockopt: Change getsockopt() of
SO_BINDTODEVICE to return an interface name)

Joseph Gasparakis 6a674e9c75 net: Add support for hardware-offloaded encapsulation
This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE).

For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits
in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the
skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will
use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware.

For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the
skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up
to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol
driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the
protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

Eric Dumazet c3c7c254b2 net: gro: fix possible panic in skb_gro_receive()
commit 2e71a6f808 (net: gro: selective flush of packets) added
a bug for skbs using frag_list. This part of the GRO stack is rarely
used, as it needs skb not using a page fragment for their skb->head.

Most drivers do use a page fragment, but some of them use GFP_KERNEL
allocations for the initial fill of their RX ring buffer.

napi_gro_flush() overwrite skb->prev that was used for these skb to
point to the last skb in frag_list.

Fix this using a separate field in struct napi_gro_cb to point to the
last fragment.

This patch changes three methods to be static and removes their
EXPORT_SYMBOLs in core/dev.c and their external declaration in
netdevice.h. The methods, dev_gro_receive(), napi_frags_finish() and
napi_skb_finish(), which are in the GRO rx path, are not used
outside core/dev.c.

Brian Haley c91f6df2db sockopt: Change getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE to return an interface name
Instead of having the getsockopt() of SO_BINDTODEVICE return an index, which
will then require another call like if_indextoname() to get the actual interface
name, have it return the name directly.

This also matches the existing man page description on socket(7) which mentions
the argument being an interface name.

If the value has not been set, zero is returned and optlen will be set to zero
to indicate there is no interface name present.

Added a seqlock to protect this code path, and dev_ifname(), from someone
changing the device name via dev_change_name().

v2: Added seqlock protection while copying device name.

v3: Fixed word wrap in patch.
