Pull networking fixes from David Miller: 1) sunhme driver lacks DMA mapping error checks, based upon a report by Meelis Roos. 2) Fix memory leak in mvpp2 driver, from Sudip Mukherjee. 3) DMA memory allocation sizes are wrong in systemport ethernet driver, fix from Florian Fainelli. 4) Fix use after free in mac80211 defragmentation code, from Johannes Berg. 5) Some networking uapi headers missing from Kbuild file, from Stephen Hemminger. 6) TUN driver gets csum_start offset wrong when VLAN accel is enabled, and macvtap has a similar bug, from Herbert Xu. 7) Adjust several tunneling drivers to set dev->iflink after registry, because registry sets that to -1 overwriting whatever we did. From Steffen Klassert. 8) Geneve forgets to set inner tunneling type, causing GSO segmentation to fail on some NICs. From Jesse Gross. 9) Fix several locking bugs in stmmac driver, from Fabrice Gasnier and Giuseppe CAVALLARO. 10) Fix spurious timeouts with NewReno on low traffic connections, from Marcelo Leitner. 11) Fix descriptor updates in enic driver, from Govindarajulu Varadarajan. 12) PPP calls bpf_prog_create() with locks held, which isn't kosher. Fix from Takashi Iwai. 13) Fix NULL deref in SCTP with malformed INIT packets, from Daniel Borkmann. 14) psock_fanout selftest accesses past the end of the mmap ring, fix from Shuah Khan. 15) Fix PTP timestamping for VLAN packets, from Richard Cochran. 16) netlink_unbind() calls in netlink pass wrong initial argument, from Hiroaki SHIMODA. 17) vxlan socket reuse accidently reuses a socket when the address family is different, so we have to explicitly check this, from Marcelo Lietner. 18) Fix missing include in nft_reject_bridge.c breaking the build on ppc and other architectures, from Guenter Roeck. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (75 commits) vxlan: Do not reuse sockets for a different address family smsc911x: power-up phydev before doing a software reset. lib: rhashtable - Remove weird non-ASCII characters from comments net/smsc911x: Fix delays in the PHY enable/disable routines net/smsc911x: Fix rare soft reset timeout issue due to PHY power-down mode netlink: Properly unbind in error conditions. net: ptp: fix time stamp matching logic for VLAN packets. cxgb4 : dcb open-lldp interop fixes selftests/net: psock_fanout seg faults in sock_fanout_read_ring() net: bcmgenet: apply MII configuration in bcmgenet_open() net: bcmgenet: connect and disconnect from the PHY state machine net: qualcomm: Fix dependency ixgbe: phy: fix uninitialized status in ixgbe_setup_phy_link_tnx net: phy: Correctly handle MII ioctl which changes autonegotiation. ipv6: fix IPV6_PKTINFO with v4 mapped net: sctp: fix memory leak in auth key management net: sctp: fix NULL pointer dereference in af->from_addr_param on malformed packet net: ppp: Don't call bpf_prog_create() in ppp_lock net/mlx4_en: Advertize encapsulation offloads features only when VXLAN tunnel is set cxgb4 : Fix bug in DCB app deletion ... |

Linux Kernel Selftests The kernel contains a set of "self tests" under the tools/testing/selftests/ directory. These are intended to be small unit tests to exercise individual code paths in the kernel. On some systems, hot-plug tests could hang forever waiting for cpu and memory to be ready to be offlined. A special hot-plug target is created to run full range of hot-plug tests. In default mode, hot-plug tests run in safe mode with a limited scope. In limited mode, cpu-hotplug test is run on a single cpu as opposed to all hotplug capable cpus, and memory hotplug test is run on 2% of hotplug capable memory instead of 10%. Running the selftests (hotplug tests are run in limited mode) ============================================================= To build the tests: $ make -C tools/testing/selftests To run the tests: $ make -C tools/testing/selftests run_tests - note that some tests will require root privileges. To run only tests targeted for a single subsystem: (including hotplug targets in limited mode) $ make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=cpu-hotplug run_tests See the top-level tools/testing/selftests/Makefile for the list of all possible targets. Running the full range hotplug selftests ======================================== To build the tests: $ make -C tools/testing/selftests hotplug To run the tests: $ make -C tools/testing/selftests run_hotplug - note that some tests will require root privileges. Contributing new tests ====================== In general, the rules for for selftests are * Do as much as you can if you're not root; * Don't take too long; * Don't break the build on any architecture, and * Don't cause the top-level "make run_tests" to fail if your feature is unconfigured.
