Pull networking fixes from David Miller:

 1) Fix bluetooth userland regression reported by Keith Packard, from
    Gustavo Padovan.

 2) Revert ath9k PS idle change, from Sujith Manoharan.

 3) Correct default TCP memory limits (again), from Eric Dumazet.

 4) Fix tcp_rcv_rtt_update() accidental use of unscaled RTT, from Neal
    Cardwell.

 5) We made a facility for layers like wireless to say how much tailroom
    they need in the SKB for link layer stuff such as wireless
    encryption etc., but TCP works hard to fill every SKB out to the end
    defeating this specification.

    This leads to every TCP packet getting reallocated by the wireless
    code in order to have the right amount of tailroom available.

    Fix TCP to only fill SKBs out to the real amount of data area it
    asked for during the allocation, this way it won't eat into the
    slack added for the device's tailroom needs.

    Reported by Marc Merlin and fixed by Eric Dumazet.

 6) Leaks, endian bugs, and new device IDs in bluetooth from Santosh
    Nayak, João Paulo Rechi Vita, Cho, Yu-Chen, Andrei Emeltchenko,
    AceLan Kao, and Andrei Emeltchenko.

 7) OOPS on tty_close fix in bluetooth's hci_ldisc from Johan Hovold.

 8) netfilter erroneously scales TCP window twice, fix from Changli Gao.

 9) Memleak fix in wext-core from Julia Lawall.

10) Consistently handle invalid TCP packets in ipv4 vs.  ipv6 conntrack,
    from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

11) Validate IP header length properly in netfilter conntrack's
    ipv4_get_l4proto().

Johannes Berg 6d52563f2b cfg80211/mac80211: enable proper device_set_wakeup_enable handling
In WoWLAN, we only get the triggers when we actually get
to suspend. As a consequence, drivers currently don't
know that the device should enable wakeup. However, the
device_set_wakeup_enable() API is intended to be called
when the wakeup is enabled, not later when needed.

Add a new set_wakeup() call to cfg80211 and mac80211 to
allow drivers to properly call device_set_wakeup_enable.

Johannes Berg 3a25a8c8b7 mac80211: add improved HW queue control
mac80211 currently only supports one hardware queue
per AC. This is already problematic for off-channel
uses since if we go off channel while the BE queue
is full and then try to send an off-channel frame
the frame will never go out. This will become worse
when we support multi-channel since then a queue on
one channel might be full, but we have to stop the
software queue for all channels. That is obviously
not desirable.

To address this problem allow drivers to register
more hardware queues, and allow them to map them to
virtual interfaces. When they stop a hardware queue
the corresponding AC software queues on the correct
interfaces will be stopped as well. Additionally,
there's an off-channel queue to solve that problem
and a per-interface after-DTIM beacon queue. This
allows drivers to manage software queues closer to
how the hardware works.

Currently, there's a limit of 16 hardware queues.
This may or may not be sufficient, we can adjust it
as needed.

Johannes Berg 4b6f1dd6a6 mac80211: add explicit monitor interface if needed
The queue mapping redesign that I'm planning to do
will break pure injection unless we handle monitor
interfaces explicitly. One possible option would
be to have the driver tell mac80211 about monitor
mode queues etc., but that would duplicate the API
since we already need to have queue assignments
handled per virtual interface.

So in order to solve this, have a virtual monitor
interface that is added whenever all active vifs
are monitors. We could also use the state of one
of the monitor interfaces, but managing that would
be complicated, so allocate separate state.

Eric Dumazet a21d45726a tcp: avoid order-1 allocations on wifi and tx path
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non
SG capable hardware.

After investigation, it turns out TCP uses sk_stream_alloc_skb() and
used as a convention skb_tailroom(skb) to know how many bytes of data
payload could be put in this skb (for non SG capable devices)

Note : these skb used kmalloc-4096 (MTU=1500 + MAX_HEADER +
sizeof(struct skb_shared_info) being above 2048)

Later, mac80211 layer need to add some bytes at the tail of skb
(IEEE80211_ENCRYPT_TAILROOM = 18 bytes) and since no more tailroom is
available has to call pskb_expand_head() and request order-1
allocations.

This patch changes sk_stream_alloc_skb() so that only
sk->sk_prot->max_header bytes of headroom are reserved, and use a new
skb field, avail_size to hold the data payload limit.

This way, order-0 allocations done by TCP stack can leave more than 2 KB
of tailroom and no more allocation is performed in mac80211 layer (or
any layer needing some tailroom)

avail_size is unioned with mark/dropcount, since mark will be set later
in IP stack for output packets. Therefore, skb size is unchanged.

Eric Dumazet 87151b8689 net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom
Marc Merlin reported many order-1 allocations failures in TX path on its
wireless setup, that dont make any sense with MTU=1500 network, and non
SG capable hardware.

Turns out part of the problem comes from pskb_expand_head() not using
ksize() to get exact head size given by kmalloc(). Doing the same thing
than __alloc_skb() allows more tailroom in skb and can prevent future
reallocations.

As a bonus, struct skb_shared_info becomes cache line aligned.

Herbert Xu 996304bbea bridge: Do not send queries on multicast group leaves
As it stands the bridge IGMP snooping system will respond to
group leave messages with queries for remaining membership.
This is both unnecessary and undesirable.  First of all any
multicast routers present should be doing this rather than us.
What's more the queries that we send may end up upsetting other
multicast snooping swithces in the system that are buggy.

In fact, we can simply remove the code that send these queries
because the existing membership expiry mechanism doesn't rely
on them anyway.

So this patch simply removes all code associated with group
queries in response to group leave messages.

Simon Wunderlich 23721387c4 batman-adv: add basic bridge loop avoidance code
This second version of the bridge loop avoidance for batman-adv
avoids loops between the mesh and a backbone (usually a LAN).

By connecting multiple batman-adv mesh nodes to the same ethernet
segment a loop can be created when the soft-interface is bridged
into that ethernet segment. A simple visualization of the loop
involving the most common case - a LAN as ethernet segment:

node1  <-- LAN  -->  node2
  |                   |
wifi   <-- mesh -->  wifi

Packets from the LAN (e.g. ARP broadcasts) will circle forever from
node1 or node2 over the mesh back into the LAN.

With this patch, batman recognizes backbone gateways, nodes which are
part of the mesh and backbone/LAN at the same time. Each backbone
gateway "claims" clients from within the mesh to handle them
exclusively. By restricting that only responsible backbone gateways
may handle their claimed clients traffic, loops are effectively
avoided.

Javier Cardona dbf498fbaf mac80211: Implement mesh synchronization framework
This patch adds MBSS extensible synchronization framework (Sec.
13.13.2 of IEEE Std. 802.11-2012).

The framework is implemented via an ops table which defines the
following functions:

    rx_bcn_presp() - this is called every time a mesh beacon is
received.
    adjust_tbtt() - this is called immediately before a beacon is about
to be transmitted.

The default neighbor offset synchronization defined in the standard is
implemented.  We also provide template functions for vendor specific
methods.

When neighbor offset synchronization is active (which is the default)
mesh neighbors in the same MBSS will track timing offsets to each other
and compensate clock drift.

In our tests we observed that this mesh synchronization implementation
successfully corrected drifts between stations of ~2PPM while
introducing a jitter of ~20us.

It is also possible to test this framework on mac80211_hwsim simulated
phys to see how it behaves under different topologies, over poor links,

Changing the channel type during operation is

This also fixes a problem that Paul missed in

Fix a code path in tcp_rcv_rtt_update() that was comparing scaled and
unscaled RTT samples.

The intent in the code was to only use the 'm' measurement if it was a
new minimum.  However, since 'm' had not yet been shifted left 3 bits
but 'new_sample' had, this comparison would nearly always succeed,
leading us to erroneously set our receive-side RTT estimate to the 'm'
sample when that sample could be nearly 8x too high to use.

The overall effect is to often cause the receive-side RTT estimate to
be significantly too large (up to 40% too large for brief periods in
my tests).

Jozsef Kadlecsik 07153c6ec0 netfilter: nf_ct_ipv4: packets with wrong ihl are invalid
It was reported that the Linux kernel sometimes logs:

klogd: [2629147.402413] kernel BUG at net / netfilter /
nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 447!
klogd: [1072212.887368] kernel BUG at net / netfilter /
nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c: 392

ipv4_get_l4proto() in nf_conntrack_l3proto_ipv4.c and tcp_error() in
nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c should catch malformed packets, so the errors
at the indicated lines - TCP options parsing - should not happen.
However, tcp_error() relies on the "dataoff" offset to the TCP header,
calculated by ipv4_get_l4proto().  But ipv4_get_l4proto() does not check
bogus ihl values in IPv4 packets, which then can slip through tcp_error()
and get caught at the TCP options parsing routines.

The patch fixes ipv4_get_l4proto() by invalidating packets with bogus
ihl value.

The patch closes netfilter bugzilla id 771.

Despite the documentation on this it seems system integrators could

when their database is empty.

This does mean that the error-prone system integrator won't likely
realize the issue until they boot the machine but -- it does not seem

This causes trouble with at least one wireless chipset (Ralink RT3572).
When the hardware is not sleeping and we send a wakeup command (e.g.
this happens after a scan) then a significant decrease of the link
quality or a disconnect may occur.
Disabling power save mode only when it was enabled prevents this issue.

Calling mod_timer from the rx/tx hotpath is somewhat expensive, and the
timeout doesn't need to be so precise.

Switch to a different strategy: Schedule the timer initially, store jiffies
of all last rx/tx activity which would previously modify the timer, and
let the timer re-arm itself after checking the last rx/tx timestamp.
Make the session timers deferrable to avoid causing extra wakeups on systems
running on battery.
This visibly reduces CPU load under high network load on small embedded
systems.

 9) Add missing address change event emissions to bonding, from Shlomo

10) /proc/net/dev regressed because it uses a private offset to track
    where we are in the hash table, but this doesn't track the offset
    pullback that the seq_file code does resulting in some entries being
    missed in large dumps.

    Fix from Eric Dumazet.

11) do_tcp_sendpage() unloads the send queue way too fast, because it
    invokes tcp_push() when it shouldn't.  Let the natural sequence
    generated by the splice paths, and the assosciated MSG_MORE
    settings, guide the tcp_push() calls.

    Otherwise what goes out of TCP is spaghetti and doesn't batch
    effectively into GSO/TSO clusters.

    From Eric Dumazet.

12) Once we put a SKB into either the netlink receiver's queue or a
    socket error queue, it can be consumed and freed up, therefore we
    cannot touch it after queueing it like that.

    Fixes from Eric Dumazet.

13) PPP has this annoying behavior in that for every transmit call it
    immediately stops the TX queue, then calls down into the next layer
    to transmit the PPP frame.

    But if that next layer can take it immediately, it just un-stops the
    TX queue right before returning from the transmit method.

    Besides being useless work, it makes several facilities unusable, in
    particular things like the equalizers.  Well behaved devices should
    only stop the TX queue when they really are full, and in PPP's case
    when it gets backlogged to the downstream device.

    David Woodhouse therefore fixed PPP to not stop the TX queue until
    it's downstream can't take data any more.

14) IFF_UNICAST_FLT got accidently lost in some recent stmmac driver
    changes, re-add.  From Marc Kleine-Budde.

15) Fix link flaps in ixgbe, from Eric W. Multanen.

Sasha Levin bcf1b70ac6 phonet: Check input from user before allocating
A phonet packet is limited to USHRT_MAX bytes, this is never checked during
tx which means that the user can specify any size he wishes, and the kernel
will attempt to allocate that size.

In the good case, it'll lead to the following warning, but it may also cause
the kernel to kick in the OOM and kill a random task on the server.

Eric Dumazet 35f9c09fe9 tcp: tcp_sendpages() should call tcp_push() once
commit 2f53384424 (tcp: allow splice() to build full TSO packets) added
a regression for splice() calls using SPLICE_F_MORE.

We need to call tcp_flush() at the end of the last page processed in
tcp_sendpages(), or else transmits can be deferred and future sends
stall.

Add a new internal flag, MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST, acting like MSG_MORE, but
with different semantic.

For all sendpage() providers, its a transparent change. Only
sock_sendpage() and tcp_sendpages() can differentiate the two different
flags provided by pipe_to_sendpage()

Stephen Boyd 234e340582 simple_open: automatically convert to simple_open()
Many users of debugfs copy the implementation of default_open() when
they want to support a custom read/write function op.  This leads to a
proliferation of the default_open() implementation across the entire
tree.

Now that the common implementation has been consolidated into libfs we
can replace all the users of this function with simple_open().

This replacement was done with the following semantic patch:

<smpl>
@ open @

identifier i, f;
@@
-int open_f(struct inode *i, struct file *f)
-{

)
-return 0;
-}

identifier fops;
identifier open.open_f;
@@
struct file_operations fops = {
...
-.open = open_f,
+.open = simple_open,
...

optional attribute to DCB netlink. To use it, drivers should implement and

Thomas Graf acdd598536 sctp: Allow struct sctp_event_subscribe to grow without breaking binaries
getsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) performs a length check and returns
an error if the user provides less bytes than the size of struct
sctp_event_subscribe.

Struct sctp_event_subscribe needs to be extended by an u8 for every
new event or notification type that is added.

This obviously makes getsockopt fail for binaries that are compiled
against an older versions of <net/sctp/user.h> which do not contain
all event types.

This patch changes getsockopt behaviour to no longer return an error
if not enough bytes are being provided by the user. Instead, it
returns as much of sctp_event_subscribe as fits into the provided buffer.

This leads to the new behavior that users see what they have been aware
of at compile time.

The setsockopt(..., SCTP_EVENTS, ...) API is already behaving like this.

This commit adds a new ethtool ioctl that exposes the SO_TIMESTAMPING
capabilities of a network interface. In addition, user space programs
can use this ioctl to discover the PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) device
associated with the interface.

Since software receive time stamps are handled by the stack, the generic
ethtool code can answer the query correctly in case the MAC or PHY
drivers lack special time stamping features.
