aebda156a5 net: defer net_secret[] initialization
Instead of feeding net_secret[] at boot time, defer the init
at the point first socket is created.

This permits some platforms to use better entropy sources than
the ones available at boot time.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains relevant updates for the Netfilter
tree, they are:

* Enhancements for ipset: Add the counter extension for sets, this
  information can be used from the iptables set match, to change
  the matching behaviour. Jozsef required to add the extension
  infrastructure and moved the existing timeout support upon it.
  This also includes a change in net/sched/em_ipset to adapt it to
  the new extension structure.

* Enhancements for performance boosting in nfnetlink_queue: Add new
  configuration flags that allows user-space to receive big packets (GRO)
  and to disable checksumming calculation. This were proposed by Eric
  Dumazet during the Netfilter Workshop 2013 in Copenhagen. Florian
  Westphal was kind enough to find the time to materialize the proposal.

* A sparse fix from Simon, he noticed it in the SCTP NAT helper, the fix
  required a change in the interface of sctp_end_cksum.

eee1d5a147 sctp: Correct type and usage of sctp_end_cksum()
Change the type of the crc32 parameter of sctp_end_cksum()
from __be32 to __u32 to reflect that fact that it is passed
to cpu_to_le32().

There are five in-tree users of sctp_end_cksum().
The following four had warnings flagged by sparse which are
no longer present with this change.

net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_nat_csum()
net/netfilter/ipvs/ip_vs_proto_sctp.c:sctp_csum_check()
net/sctp/input.c:sctp_rcv_checksum()
net/sctp/output.c:sctp_packet_transmit()

The fifth user is net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt().
It has been updated to pass a __u32 instead of a __be32,
the value in question was already calculated in cpu byte-order.

net/netfilter/nf_nat_proto_sctp.c:sctp_manip_pkt() has also
been updated to assign the return value of sctp_end_cksum()
directly to a variable of type __le32, matching the
type of the return value. Previously the return value
was assigned to a variable of type __be32 and then that variable
was finally assigned to another variable of type __le32.

Problems flagged by sparse.
Compile and sparse tested only.

7237190df8 netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: add skb info attribute
Once we allow userspace to receive gso/gro packets, userspace
needs to be able to determine when checksums appear to be
broken, but are not.

NFQA_SKB_CSUMNOTREADY means 'checksums will be fixed in kernel
later, pretend they are ok'.

NFQA_SKB_GSO could be used for statistics, or to determine when
packet size exceeds mtu.

a5fedd43d5 netfilter: move skb_gso_segment into nfnetlink_queue module
skb_gso_segment is expensive, so it would be nice if we could
avoid it in the future. However, userspace needs to be prepared
to receive larger-than-mtu-packets (which will also have incorrect
l3/l4 checksums), so we cannot simply remove it.

The plan is to add a per-queue feature flag that userspace can
set when binding the queue.

The problem is that in nf_queue, we only have a queue number,
not the queue context/configuration settings.

This patch should have no impact other than the skb_gso_segment
call now being in a function that has access to the queue config
data.

A new size attribute in nf_queue_entry is needed so
nfnetlink_queue can duplicate the entry of the gso skb
when segmenting the skb while also copying the route key.

The follow up patch adds switch to disable skb_gso_segment when
queue config says so.

After we increased the frag mem limits commit c2a93660 (net: increase

b9c32fb271 packet: if hw/sw ts enabled in rx/tx ring, report which ts we got
Currently, there is no way to find out which timestamp is reported in
tpacket{,2,3}_hdr's tp_sec, tp_{n,u}sec members. It can be one of
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_RAW_HARDWARE,
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE, or a fallback variant late call from the
PF_PACKET code in software.

Therefore, report in the tp_status member of the ring buffer which
timestamp has been reported for RX and TX path. This should not break
anything for the following reasons: i) in RX ring path, the user needs
to test for tp_status & TP_STATUS_USER, and later for other flags as
well such as TP_STATUS_VLAN_VALID et al, so adding other flags will
do no harm; ii) in TX ring path, time stamps with PACKET_TIMESTAMP
socketoption are not available resp. had no effect except that the
application setting this is buggy. Next to TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE, the
user also should check for other flags such as TP_STATUS_WRONG_FORMAT
to reclaim frames to the application. Thus, in case TX ts are turned
off (default case), nothing happens to the application logic, and in
case we want to use this new feature, we now can also check which of
the ts source is reported in the status field as provided in the docs.

Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
This series contains updates to ixgbe, igb and pci.

The ixgbe changes contains a fix to a possible divide by zero by bailing
out of the ixgbe_update_itr() function if the last interrupt timeslice is
zero.  In addition, support is added for the new OCP x520 adapter as well
as LX support for 82599 devices.  Jacob provides a patch to change
variable wol_supported to wol_enabled to better reflect what the code
is actually doing (i.e. checking if WoL is enabled).

Alex adds SRIOV helper function to pci that will determine if a PF
has any VFs that are currently assigned to a guest.

The remaining 8 patches are against igb and contain the following changes:
* implement SERDES loopback configuration for i210 devices by unsetting
  sigdetect bit, so as to fix Ethtool loopback test failure
* add support for the SMBI semaphore for I210/I211 devices
* implement the new generic pci_vfs_assigned helper function (Alex's PCI
  helper function)
* display warning when link speed is downgraded due to Smartspeed
* ensure that VLAN hardware filtering remains enabled when the device is
  in promiscuous mode and VT mode simultaneously
* cleanup dead code in igb
* bump the driver version

v2: updated the PCI patch to add SRIOV helper function to remove extern
    from the declaration of pci_vfs_assigned in pci.h and return 0 if
    SR-IOV is disabled which is inline with other PCI SR-IOV functions

When enabling TS on receive flow - VLAN stripping will be disabled.

The be2net driver had a bug fix in 'net' that overlapped with the VLAN

An IGB conflict existed because in 'net' the build_skb() support was
reverted, and in 'net-next' there was a comment style fix within that

Several batman-adv conflicts were resolved by making sure that all
calls to batadv_is_my_mac() are changed to have a new bat_priv first
argument.

Eric Dumazet's TS ECR fix in TCP in 'net' conflicted with the F-RTO
rewrite in 'net-next', mostly overlapping changes.

Thanks to Stephen Rothwell and Antonio Quartulli for help with several
of these merge resolutions.

3e3251b3f2 net: sctp: minor: remove dead code from sctp_packet
struct sctp_packet is currently embedded into sctp_transport or
sits on the stack as 'singleton' in sctp_outq_flush(). Therefore,
its member 'malloced' is always 0, thus a kfree() is never called.
Because of that, we can just remove this code.

3fb62c5d3f net: remove a stale comment for dl_next
dl_next member in struct request_sock doesn't need to be first.

We expect to insert a "struct common_sock" or a subset of it,
so this claim had to be verified.

2810e5b9a7 xen-netback: coalesce slots in TX path and fix regressions
This patch tries to coalesce tx requests when constructing grant copy
structures. It enables netback to deal with situation when frontend's
MAX_SKB_FRAGS is larger than backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS.

With the help of coalescing, this patch tries to address two regressions
avoid reopening the security hole in XSA-39.

Regression 1. The reduction of the number of supported ring entries (slots)
per packet (from 18 to 17). This regression has been around for some time but
remains unnoticed until XSA-39 security fix. This is fixed by coalescing
slots.

Regression 2. The XSA-39 security fix turning "too many frags" errors from
just dropping the packet to a fatal error and disabling the VIF. This is fixed
by coalescing slots (handling 18 slots when backend's MAX_SKB_FRAGS is 17)
which rules out false positive (using 18 slots is legit) and dropping packets
using 19 to `max_skb_slots` slots.

To avoid reopening security hole in XSA-39, frontend sending packet using more
than max_skb_slots is considered malicious.

The behavior of netback for packet is thus:

    1-18            slots: valid
   19-max_skb_slots slots: drop and respond with an error
   max_skb_slots+   slots: fatal error

max_skb_slots is configurable by admin, default value is 20.

Also change variable name from "frags" to "slots" in netbk_count_requests.

Please note that RX path still has dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. This will be
fixed with separate patch.

9ecd1a75d9 xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header
The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback
wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly.

Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort
to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of
netfront in the future.

Samuel Ortiz <sameo@linux.intel.com> says:

"This is the 2nd NFC pull request for 3.10.

With this one we have:

- A major pn533 update. The pn533 framing support has been changed in order to
  easily support all pn533 derivatives. For example we now support the ACR122
  USB dongle.

- An NFC MEI physical layer code factorization through the mei_phy NFC API.
  Both the microread and the pn544 drivers now use it.

- LLCP aggregation support. This allows NFC p2p devices to send aggregated
  frames containing all sort of LLCP frames except SYMM and aggregation
  frames.

- More LLCP socket options for getting the remote device link parameters.

- Fixes for the LLCP socket option code added with the first pull request for
  3.10.

- Some support for LLCP corner cases like 0 length SDUs and general DISC
  (tagged with a 0,0 dsap ssap couple) handling.

- RFKILL support for NFC."

0d528d85c5 mac80211: improve the rate control API
Allow rate control modules to pass a rate selection table to mac80211
and the driver. This allows drivers to fetch the most recent rate
selection from the sta pointer for already buffered frames. This allows
rate control to respond faster to sudden link changes and it is also a
step towards adding minstrel_ht support to drivers like iwlwifi.

When a driver sets IEEE80211_HW_SUPPORTS_RC_TABLE, mac80211 will not
fill info->control.rates with rates from the rate table (to preserve
explicit overrides by the rate control module). The driver then
explicitly calls ieee80211_get_tx_rates to merge overrides from
info->control.rates with defaults from the sta rate table.

5de1798489 cfg80211: introduce critical protocol indication from user-space
Some protocols need a more reliable connection to complete
successful in reasonable time. This patch adds a user-space
API to indicate the wireless driver that a critical protocol
is about to commence and when it is done, using nl80211 primitives
NL80211_CMD_CRIT_PROTOCOL_START and NL80211_CRIT_PROTOCOL_STOP.

There can be only on critical protocol session started per
registered cfg80211 device.

The driver can support this by implementing the cfg80211 callbacks
.crit_proto_start() and .crit_proto_stop(). Examples of protocols
that can benefit from this are DHCP, EAPOL, APIPA. Exactly how the
link can/should be made more reliable is up to the driver. Things
to consider are avoid scanning, no multi-channel operations, and
alter coexistence schemes.
