      net: mpls: Fixups for GSO · 48d2ab60
      David Ahern authored
      
      
      As reported by Lennert the MPLS GSO code is failing to properly segment
      large packets. There are a couple of problems:
      
      1. the inner protocol is not set so the gso segment functions for inner
         protocol layers are not getting run, and
      
      2  MPLS labels for packets that use the "native" (non-OVS) MPLS code
         are not properly accounted for in mpls_gso_segment.
      
      The MPLS GSO code was added for OVS. It is re-using skb_mac_gso_segment
      to call the gso segment functions for the higher layer protocols. That
      means skb_mac_gso_segment is called twice -- once with the network
      protocol set to MPLS and again with the network protocol set to the
      inner protocol.
      
      This patch sets the inner skb protocol addressing item 1 above and sets
      the network_header and inner_network_header to mark where the MPLS labels
      start and end. The MPLS code in OVS is also updated to set the two
      network markers.
      
      >From there the MPLS GSO code uses the difference between the network
      header and the inner network header to know the size of the MPLS header
      that was pushed. It then pulls the MPLS header, resets the mac_len and
      protocol for the inner protocol and then calls skb_mac_gso_segment
      to segment the skb.
      
      Afterward the inner protocol segmentation is done the skb protocol
      is set to mpls for each segment and the network and mac headers
      restored.

      net: lwtunnel: Handle fragmentation · 14972cbd
      Roopa Prabhu authored
      
      
      Today mpls iptunnel lwtunnel_output redirect expects the tunnel
      output function to handle fragmentation. This is ok but can be
      avoided if we did not do the mpls output redirect too early.
      ie we could wait until ip fragmentation is done and then call
      mpls output for each ip fragment.
      
      To make this work we will need,
      1) the lwtunnel state to carry encap headroom
      2) and do the redirect to the encap output handler on the ip fragment
      (essentially do the output redirect after fragmentation)
      
      This patch adds tunnel headroom in lwtstate to make sure we
      account for tunnel data in mtu calculations during fragmentation
      and adds new xmit redirect handler to redirect to lwtunnel xmit func
      after ip fragmentation.
      
      This includes IPV6 and some mtu fixes and testing from David Ahern.

      Here's a set of patches that prepare the way for the removal of the use of
      sk_buffs from fs/afs (they'll be entirely retained within net/rxrpc):
      
       (1) Fix a potential NULL-pointer deref in rxrpc_abort_calls().
      
       (2) Condense all the terminal call state machine states to a single one
           plus supplementary info.
      
       (3) Add a trace point for rxrpc call usage debugging.
      
       (4) Cleanups and missing headers.
      
       (5) Provide a way for AFS to ask about a call's peer address without
           having an sk_buff to query.
      
       (6) Use call->peer directly rather than going via call->conn (which might
           be NULL).
      
       (7) Pass struct socket * to various rxrpc kernel interface functions so
           they can use that directly rather than getting it from the rxrpc_call
           struct.

      rxrpc: Provide a way for AFS to ask for the peer address of a call · 8324f0bc
      David Howells authored
      
      
      Provide a function so that kernel users, such as AFS, can ask for the peer
      address of a call:
      
         void rxrpc_kernel_get_peer(struct rxrpc_call *call,
      			      struct sockaddr_rxrpc *_srx);
      
      In the future the kernel service won't get sk_buffs to look inside.
      Further, this allows us to hide any canonicalisation inside AF_RXRPC for
      when IPv6 support is added.
      
      Also propagate this through to afs_find_server() and issue a warning if we
      can't handle the address family yet.

      ====================
      100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-08-29
      
      This series contains updates to fm10k only.
      
      Jake provides all the changes in this series starting with fixes an issue
      where VF devices may fail during an unbind/bind and we will never zero
      the reference counter for the pci_dev structure.  Updated the hot path
      to use SW counters instead of checking for hardware Tx pending for
      possible transmit hangs, which will improve performance.  Fixed the NAPI
      budget accounting so that fm10k_poll will return actual work done,
      capped at (budget - 1) instead of returning 0.  Added a check to ensure
      that the device is in the normal IO state before continuing to probe,
      which allows us to give a more descriptive message of what is wrong
      in the case of uncorrectable AER error.  In preparation for adding Geneve
      Rx offload support, refactored the current VXLAN offload flow to be a bit
      more generic.  Added support for receive offloads on one Geneve tunnel.
      Ensure that other bits in the RXQCTL register do not get cleared, to
      make sure that bits related to queue ownership are maintained.  Fixed
      an issue in queue ownership assignment which casued a race condition
      between the PF and the VF such that potentially a VF could cause FUM
      fault errors due to normal PF/VF driver behavior.
