This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API,
handled by the new get_link_ksettings/set_link_ksettings callbacks.
This API provides support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds
support for larger link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length),
and removes ethtool_cmd deprecated
fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt).
This API is deprecating the legacy ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API and provides
the following backward compatibility properties:
- legacy ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
get_settings/set_settings callbacks.
- legacy ethtool with new get/set_link_ksettings drivers: the new
driver callbacks are used, data internally converted to legacy
ethtool_cmd. ETHTOOL_GSET will return only the 1st 32b of each link
mode mask. ETHTOOL_SSET will fail if user tries to set the
ethtool_cmd deprecated fields to
non-0 (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). A kernel warning is logged if
driver sets higher bits.
- future ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the
get_settings/set_settings callbacks, internally converted to new data
structure. Deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt) will be
ignored and seen as 0 from user space. Note that that "future"
ethtool tool will not allow changes to these deprecated fields.
- future ethtool with new drivers: direct call to the new callbacks.
By "future" ethtool, what is meant is:
- query: first try ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS, and revert to ETHTOOL_GSET if
fails
- set: query first and remember which of ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS or
ETHTOOL_GSET was successful
+ if ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS was successful, then change config with
ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS. A failure there is final (do not try
ETHTOOL_SSET).
+ otherwise ETHTOOL_GSET was successful, change config with
ETHTOOL_SSET. A failure there is final (do not try
ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS).
The interaction user/kernel via the new API requires a small
ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS handshake first to agree on the length of the link
mode bitmaps. If kernel doesn't agree with user, it returns the bitmap
length it is expecting from user as a negative length (and cmd field is
0). When kernel and user agree, kernel returns valid info in all
fields (ie. link mode length > 0 and cmd is ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS).
Data structure crossing user/kernel boundary is 32/64-bit
agnostic. Converted internally to a legal kernel bitmap.
The internal __ethtool_get_settings kernel helper will gradually be
replaced by __ethtool_get_link_ksettings by the time the first
"link_settings" drivers start to appear. So this patch doesn't change
it, it will be removed before it needs to be changed.

This patch add the SO_CNX_ADVICE socket option (setsockopt only). The
purpose is to allow an application to give feedback to the kernel about
the quality of the network path for a connected socket. The value
argument indicates the type of quality report. For this initial patch
the only supported advice is a value of 1 which indicates "bad path,
please reroute"-- the action taken by the kernel is to call
dst_negative_advice which will attempt to choose a different ECMP route,
reset the TX hash for flow label and UDP source port in encapsulation,
etc.
This facility should be useful for connected UDP sockets where only the
application can provide any feedback about path quality. It could also
be useful for TCP applications that have additional knowledge about the
path outside of the normal TCP control loop.

Currently, all ipv6 addresses are flushed when the interface is configured
down, including global, static addresses:
$ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000
inet6 2100:1::2/120 scope global
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::e0:f9ff:fe79:34bd/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
$ ip link set dev eth1 down
$ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
<< nothing; all addresses have been flushed>>
Add a new sysctl to make this behavior optional. The new setting defaults to
flush all addresses to maintain backwards compatibility. When the set global
addresses with no expire times are not flushed on an admin down. The sysctl
is per-interface or system-wide for all interfaces
$ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.eth1.keep_addr_on_down=1
or
$ sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.keep_addr_on_down=1
Will keep addresses on eth1 on an admin down.
$ ip -6 addr show dev eth1
3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 state UP qlen 1000

When the TIPC module is unloaded, we have identified a race condition
that allows a node reference counter to go to zero and the node instance
being freed before the node timer is finished with accessing it. This
leads to occasional crashes, especially in multi-namespace environments.
The scenario goes as follows:
CPU0:(node_stop) CPU1:(node_timeout) // ref == 2
1: if(!mod_timer())
2: if (del_timer())
3: tipc_node_put() // ref -> 1
4: tipc_node_put() // ref -> 0
5: kfree_rcu(node);
6: tipc_node_get(node)
7: // BOOM!
We now clean up this functionality as follows:
1) We remove the node pointer from the node lookup table before we
attempt deactivating the timer. This way, we reduce the risk that
tipc_node_find() may obtain a valid pointer to an instance marked
for deletion; a harmless but undesirable situation.
2) We use del_timer_sync() instead of del_timer() to safely deactivate
the node timer without any risk that it might be reactivated by the
timeout handler. There is no risk of deadlock here, since the two
functions never touch the same spinlocks.
3: We remove a pointless tipc_node_get() + tipc_node_put() from the
timeout handler.

Although we have never seen it happen, we have identified the
following problematic scenario when nodes are stopped and deleted:
CPU0: CPU1:
tipc_node_xxx() //ref == 1
tipc_node_put() //ref -> 0
tipc_node_find() // node still in table
tipc_node_delete()
list_del_rcu(n. list)
tipc_node_get() //ref -> 1, bad
kfree_rcu()
tipc_node_put() //ref to 0 again.
kfree_rcu() // BOOM!
We fix this by introducing use of the conditional kref_get_if_not_zero()
instead of kref_get() in the function tipc_node_find(). This eliminates
any risk of post-mortem access.
