8fecce62b5 ixgbe: cleanup ixgbe_init_mbx_params_pf namespace issue
The function ixgbe_init_mbx_params_pf isn't used unless CONFIG_PCI_IOV
is defined.  This is causing namespace warnings.  So I wrapped its
definition in CONFIG_PCI_IOV too.

We had a support function that just walked a few pointers to get
from the ixgbe_hw struct to the netdev pointer.  This was causing

d37e1d0eba ixgbe: DCB, remove RESET bit it is no longer needed
This removes the RESET bit previously used to force a device
reset when DCB bandwidth configurations were changed. This can
now be done dynamically without a reset so the bit is no longer
needed. The only remaining operations that force a device reset
are DCB enable/disable and FCoE application priority changes.
DCB enable/disable is a hardware requirement.

d43f5c21d6 ixgbe: DCB, do not reset on CEE pg changes
The 82599 and 82598 devices do not require hardware resets to
configure CEE pg settings. This patch changes DCB configuration
to set the CEE pg values directly from the dcbnl ops routine.

This reduces the number of resets seen on the wire and allows
LLDP to reach a steady state faster.

55320cb58b ixgbe: DCB, abstract out dcb_config from DCB hardware configuration
Currently the routines that configure the HW for DCB require a
ixgbe_dcb_config structure. This structure was designed to support
the CEE standard and does not match the IEEE standard well.

This patch changes the HW routines in ixgbe_dcb_8259x.{ch} to use
raw pfc and bandwidth values. This requires some parsing of the DCB
configuration but makes the HW routines independent of the data
structure that contains the DCB configuration.

The primary advantage to doing this is we can do HW setup directly
from the 802.1Qaz ops without having to arbitrarily encapsulate this
data into the CEE structure.

53bb9f80b3 ixgbe: DCB, only reprogram HW if the FCoE priority is changed
If the FCoE priority is not changing do not set the RESET and
APP_UPCHG bits. This causes unneeded HW resets and which can
cause unneeded LLDP frames and negotiations.

The current check is not sufficient because the FCoE priority
can change twice during a negotiation which results in the
bits being set. This occurs when the switch changes the
priority or when the link is reset with switches that do not
include the APP priority until after PFC has been negotiated.

This results in set_app being called with the local APP
priority. Then the negotiation completes and set_app
is called again with the peer APP priority. The check
fails so the device is reset and the above occurs again
resulting in an endless loop of resets.

By only resetting the device if the APP priority has really
changed we short circuit the loop.

6431cbc25f inet: Create a mechanism for upward inetpeer propagation into routes.
If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly
propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example
PMTU information and redirects.

The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would
be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of
sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc.

Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer
entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics
and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry.

If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this
information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that
cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry.

The facilities implemented here handle this problem.

First we create a generation ID.  When we create a cached route of any
kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment.  Any
time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path
information, we bump that generation ID.

The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event
is propagated.  If the global generation ID does not equal the one
stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached
to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found.  Now
that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the
route's generation ID too.

This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in
the inetpeer cache.  There is absolutely no need to consult cached
route information in order to maintain this information.

At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the
later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers.

ddd4aa424b inetpeer: Add redirect and PMTU discovery cached info.
Validity of the cached PMTU information is indicated by it's
expiration value being non-zero, just as per dst->expires.

The scheme we will use is that we will remember the pre-ICMP value
held in the metrics or route entry, and then at expiration time
we will restore that value.

In this way PMTU expiration does not kill off the cached route as is
done currently.

Redirect information is permanent, or at least until another redirect
is received.

b6644cb706 net: rename group sysfs entry to netdev_group
commit a512b92 adds sysfs entry for net device group, but
before this commit, tun also uses group sysfs, so after this
commit checkin, kernel warns like this:
    sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/virtual/net/vnet0/group'

Since tun has used this for years, rename sysfs under tun might
break existing userspace, so rename group sysfs entry for net device
group is a better choice.

8d3bdbd55a net: Fix lockdep regression caused by initializing netdev queues too early.
In commit aa94210411 ("net: init ingress
queue") we moved the allocation and lock initialization of the queues
into alloc_netdev_mq() since register_netdevice() is way too late.

The problem is that dev->type is not setup until the setup()
callback is invoked by alloc_netdev_mq(), and the dev->type is
what determines the lockdep class to use for the locks in the
queues.

Fix this by doing the queue allocation after the setup() callback
runs.

This is safe because the setup() callback is not allowed to make any
state changes that need to be undone on error (memory allocations,
etc.).  It may, however, make state changes that are undone by
free_netdev() (such as netif_napi_add(), which is done by the
ipoib driver's setup routine).

The previous code also leaked a reference to the &init_net namespace
object on RX/TX queue allocation failures.

b2df5a8446 net/caif: Fix dangling list pointer in freed object on error.
rtnl_link_ops->setup(), and the "setup" callback passed to alloc_netdev*(),
cannot make state changes which need to be undone on failure.  There is
no cleanup mechanism available at this point.

So we have to add the caif private instance to the global list once we
are sure that register_netdev() has succedded in ->newlink().

Otherwise, if register_netdev() fails, the caller will invoke free_netdev()
and we will have a reference to freed up memory on the chnl_net_list.

fa9921e46f ipsec: allow to align IPv4 AH on 32 bits
The Linux IPv4 AH stack aligns the AH header on a 64 bit boundary
(like in IPv6). This is not RFC compliant (see RFC4302, Section
3.3.3.2.1), it should be aligned on 32 bits.

For most of the authentication algorithms, the ICV size is 96 bits.
The AH header alignment on 32 or 64 bits gives the same results.

However for SHA-256-128 for instance, the wrong 64 bit alignment results
in adding useless padding in IPv4 AH, which is forbidden by the RFC.

To avoid breaking backward compatibility, we use a new flag
(XFRM_STATE_ALIGN4) do change original behavior.

95c3043008 x25: possible skb leak on bad facilities
Originally x25_parse_facilities returned

 0 meaning 0 length facilities
>0 the length of the facilities parsed.

5ef41308f9 ("x25: Prevent crashing when parsing bad X.25 facilities") introduced more
error checking in x25_parse_facilities however used 0 to indicate bad parsing
a6331d6f9a ("memory corruption in X.25 facilities parsing") followed this further for
DTE facilities, again using 0 for bad parsing.

The meaning of 0 got confused in the callers.
If the facilities are messed up we can't determine where the data starts.
So patch makes all parsing errors return -1 and ensures callers close and don't use the skb further.

4f3123366f mac80211: as a 4-addr station, do not receive packets for other stations
Since 4-addr frames completely override the source address which will
make it into the converted 802.3 frames, receiving frames for other
4-addr stations will confuse the bridging code.

To be able to handle traffic for all connected devices, the bridge
code will automatically turn on promiscuous mode, which triggers
this problem.

180205bdb2 mac80211: Make some mlme timers module paramaters.
This allows users to tune the connection-loss algorithms
to be more or less lenient.  In particular, larger
null-func retries helps when using lots of virtual
stations on a loaded network.
