tcp: temporarily disable Fast Open on SYN timeout

Fast Open currently has a fall back feature to address SYN-data being
dropped but it requires the middle-box to pass on regular SYN retry
after SYN-data. This is implemented in commit aab487435 ("net-tcp:
Fast Open client - detecting SYN-data drops")

However some NAT boxes will drop all subsequent packets after first
SYN-data and blackholes the entire connections.  An example is in
commit 356d7d8 "netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix tcp_in_window for Fast
Open".

The sender should note such incidents and fall back to use the regular
TCP handshake on subsequent attempts temporarily as well: after the
second SYN timeouts the original Fast Open SYN is most likely lost.
When such an event recurs Fast Open is disabled based on the number of

Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
This series contains updates to vxlan, net, ixgbe, ixgbevf, and i40e.

Joseph provides a single patch against vxlan which removes the burden
from the NIC drivers to check if the vxlan driver is enabled in the
kernel and also makes available the vxlan headrooms to the drivers.

Jacob provides majority of the patches, with patches against net, ixgbe
and ixgbevf.  His net patch adds might_sleep() call to napi_disable so
that every use of napi_disable during atomic context will be visible.
Then Jacob provides a patch to fix qv_lock_napi call in
ixgbe_napi_disable_all.  The other ixgbe patches cleanup
ixgbe_check_minimum_link function to correctly show that there are some
minor loss of encoding, even though we don't calculate it and remove
unnecessary duplication of PCIe bandwidth display.  Lastly, Jacob
provides 4 patches against ixgbevf to add ixgbevf_rx_skb in line with
how ixgbe handles the variations on how packets can be received, adds
support in order to track how many packets were cleaned during busy poll
as part of the extended statistics.

Wei Yongjun provides a fix for i40e to return -ENOMEN in the memory
allocation error handling case instead of returning 0, as done
elsewhere in this function.

net: sched: cls_bpf: add BPF-based classifier

This work contains a lightweight BPF-based traffic classifier that can
serve as a flexible alternative to ematch-based tree classification, i.e.
now that BPF filter engine can also be JITed in the kernel. Naturally, tc
actions and policies are supported as well with cls_bpf. Multiple BPF
programs/filter can be attached for a class, or they can just as well be
written within a single BPF program, that's really up to the user how he
wishes to run/optimize the code, e.g. also for inversion of verdicts etc.
The notion of a BPF program's return/exit codes is being kept as follows:

     0: No match
    -1: Select classid given in "tc filter ..." command
  else: flowid, overwrite the default one

As a minimal usage example with iproute2, we use a 3 band prio root qdisc
on a router with sfq each as leave, and assign ssh and icmp bpf-based
filters to band 1, http traffic to band 2 and the rest to band 3. For the
first two bands we load the bytecode from a file, in the 2nd we load it
inline as an example:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

tc qdisc del dev em1 root
tc qdisc add dev em1 root handle 1: prio bands 3 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:1 sfq perturb 16
tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:2 sfq perturb 16
tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:3 sfq perturb 16

tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/ssh.bpf flowid 1:1
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/icmp.bpf flowid 1:1
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/http.bpf flowid 1:2
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode "`bpfc -f tc -i misc.ops`" flowid 1:3

BPF programs can be easily created and passed to tc, either as inline
'bytecode' or 'bytecode-file'. There are a couple of front-ends that can
compile opcodes, for example:

1) People familiar with tcpdump-like filters:

   tcpdump -iem1 -ddd port 22 | tr '\n' ',' > /etc/tc/ssh.bpf

2) People that want to low-level program their filters or use BPF
   extensions that lack support by libpcap's compiler:

   bpfc -f tc -i ssh.ops > /etc/tc/ssh.bpf

   ssh.ops example code:
   ldh [12]
   jne #0x800, drop
   ldb [23]
   jneq #6, drop
   ldh [20]
   jset #0x1fff, drop
   ldxb 4 * ([14] & 0xf)
   ldh [%x + 14]
   jeq #0x16, pass
   ldh [%x + 16]
   jne #0x16, drop
   pass: ret #-1
   drop: ret #0

It was chosen to load bytecode into tc, since the reverse operation,
tc filter list dev em1, is then able to show the exact commands again.
Possible follow-up work could also include a small expression compiler
for iproute2. Tested with the help of bmon. This idea came up during
the Netfilter Workshop 2013 in Copenhagen. Also thanks to feedback from

ixgbe: fix qv_lock_napi call in ixgbe_napi_disable_all

ixgbe_napi_disable_all calls napi_disable on each queue, however the busy
polling code introduced a local_bh_disable()d context around the napi_disable.
The original author did not realize that napi_disable might sleep, which would
cause a sleep while atomic BUG. In addition, on a single processor system, the
ixgbe_qv_lock_napi loop shouldn't have to mdelay. This patch adds an
ixgbe_qv_disable along with a new IXGBE_QV_STATE_DISABLED bit, which it uses to
indicate to the poll and napi routines that the q_vector has been disabled. Now
the ixgbe_napi_disable_all function will wait until all pending work has been
finished and prevent any future work from being started.

ipv4: fix DO and PROBE pmtu mode regarding local fragmentation with UFO/CORK

UFO as well as UDP_CORK do not respect IP_PMTUDISC_DO and
IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE well enough.

UFO enabled packet delivery just appends all frags to the cork and hands
it over to the network card. So we just deliver non-DF udp fragments
(DF-flag may get overwritten by hardware or virtual UFO enabled
interface).

UDP_CORK does enqueue the data until the cork is disengaged. At this
point it sets the correct IP_DF and local_df flags and hands it over to
ip_fragment which in this case will generate an icmp error which gets
appended to the error socket queue. This is not reflected in the syscall
error (of course, if UFO is enabled this also won't happen).

Improve this by checking the pmtudisc flags before appending data to the
socket and if we still can fit all data in one packet when IP_PMTUDISC_DO
or IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE is set, only then proceed.

We use (mtu-fragheaderlen) to check for the maximum length because we
ensure not to generate a fragment and non-fragmented data does not need
to have its length aligned on 64 bit boundaries. Also the passed in
ip_options are already aligned correctly.

Maybe, we can relax some other checks around ip_fragment. This needs
more research.

====================
Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

This series contains updates to igb, igbvf, i40e, ixgbe and ixgbevf.

Dan Carpenter provides a patch for igbvf to fix a bug found by a static
checker.  If the new MTU is very large, then "new_mtu + ETH_HLEN +
ETH_FCS_LEN" can wrap and the check on the next line can underflow.

Wei Yongjun provides 2 patches, the first against igbvf adds a missing
iounmap() before the return from igbvf_probe().  The second against
i40e, removes the include <linux/version.h> because it is not needed.

Carolyn provides a patch for igb to fix a call to set the master/slave
mode for all m88 generation 2 PHY's and removes the call for I210
devices which do not need it.

   igb: Enable SR-IOV configuration via PCI sysfs interface
which breaks the reloading of igb when VFs are assigned to a guest, in

Jacob provides a patch for ixgbe and ixgbevf.  First, against ixgbe,
cleans up ixgbe_enumerate_functions to reduce code complexity.  The
second, against ixgbevf, adds support for ethtool's get_coalesce and

Yijing Wang provides a patch for ixgbe to use pcie_capability_read_word()

igbvf: integer wrapping bug setting the mtu

If new_mtu is very large then "new_mtu + ETH_HLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN" can
wrap and the check on the next line can underflow. This is one of those
bugs which can be triggered by the user if you have namespaces
configured.

Also since this is something the user can trigger then we don't want to

Antonio Quartulli says:

====================
this is another set of changes intended for net-next/linux-3.13.
(probably our last pull request for this cycle)

Patches 1 and 2 reshape two of our main data structures in a way that they can
easily be extended in the future to accommodate new routing protocols.

Patches from 3 to 9 improve our routing protocol API and its users so that all
the protocol-related code is not mixed up with the other components anymore.

Patch 10 limits the local Translation Table maximum size to a value such that it
can be fully transfered over the air if needed. This value depends on
fragmentation being enabled or not and on the mtu values.

Patch 11 makes batman-adv send a uevent in case of soft-interface destruction
while a "bat-Gateway" was configured (this informs userspace about the GW not
being available anymore).

Patches 13 and 14 enable the TT component to detect non-mesh client flag
changes at runtime (till now those flags where set upon client detection and
were not changed anymore).

Patch 16 is a generalisation of our user-to-kernel space communication (and
viceversa) used to exchange ICMP packets to send/received to/from the mesh
network. Now it can easily accommodate new ICMP packet types without breaking
the existing userspace API anymore.

Remaining patches are minor changes and cleanups.

Flags covered by TT_SYNC_MASK are kept in sync among the

its table contains the correct flags or not.

Bits from 4 to 7 in the TT flags fields are now reserved for
"synchronized" flags only.

This allows future developers to add more flags of this type
without breaking compatibility.

It's important to note that not all the remote TT flags are
synchronised. This comes from the fact that some flags are
