====================
Please pull this batch of wireless updates intended for 3.15!
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"This has a whole bunch of bugfixes for things that went into -next
previously as well as some other bugfixes I didn't want to rush into
3.14 at this point. The rest of it is some cleanups and a few small
features, the biggest of which is probably Janusz's regulatory DFS CAC
time code."
For the Bluetooth bits, Gustavo says:
"One more pull request to 3.15. This is mostly and bug fix pull request, it
contains several fixes and clean up all over the tree, plus some small new
features."
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"This is the NFC pull request for 3.15. With this one we have:
- Support for ISO 15693 a.k.a. NFC vicinity a.k.a. Type 5 tags. ISO
15693 are long range (1 - 2 meters) vicinity tags/cards. The kernel
now supports those through the NFC netlink and digital APIs.
- Support for TI's trf7970a chipset. This chipset relies on the NFC
digital layer and the driver currently supports type 2, 4A and 5 tags.
- Support for NXP's pn544 secure firmare download. The pn544 C3 chipsets
relies on a different firmware download protocal than the C2 one. We
now support both and use the right one depending on the version we
detect at runtime.
- Support for 4A tags from the NFC digital layer.
- A bunch of cleanups and minor fixes from Axel Lin and Thierry Escande."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"We were sending a host command while the mutex wasn't held. This
led to hard-to-catch races."
And...
"I have a fix for a "merge damage" which is not really a merge
damage: it enables scheduled scan which has been disabled in
wireless.git. Since you merged wireless.git into wireless-next.git,
this can now be fixed in wireless-next.git.
Besides this, Alex made a workaround for a hardware bug. This fix
allows us to consume less power in S3. Arik and Eliad continue to
work on D0i3 which is a run-time power saving feature. Eliad also
contributes a few bits to the rate scaling logic to which Eyal adds his
own contribution. Avri dives deep in the power code - newer firmware
will allow to enable power save in newer scenarios. Johannes made a few
clean-ups. I have the regular amount of BT Coex boring stuff. I disable
uAPSD since we identified firmware bugs that cause packet loss. One
thing that do stand out is the udev event that we now send when the
FW asserts. I hope it will allow us to debug the FW more easily."
Also included is one last iwlwifi pull for a build breakage fix...
For the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"Michal now did some optimisations and was able to improve throughput by
100 Mbps on our MIPS based AP135 platform. Chun-Yeow added some
workarounds to be able to better use ad-hoc mode. Ben improved log
messages and added support for MSDU chaining. And, as usual, also some
smaller fixes."
Beyond that...
Andrea Merello continues his rtl8180 refactoring, in preparation for
a long-awaited rtl8187 driver. We get a new driver (rsi) for the
RS9113 chip, from Fariya Fatima. And, of course, we get the usual
round of updates for ath9k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, wil6210, etc. as well.

====================
One patch to rename a newly introduced struct. The rest is
the rework of the IPsec virtual tunnel interface for ipv6 to
support inter address family tunneling and namespace crossing.
1) Rename the newly introduced struct xfrm_filter to avoid a
conflict with iproute2. From Nicolas Dichtel.
2) Introduce xfrm_input_afinfo to access the address family
dependent tunnel callback functions properly.
3) Add and use a IPsec protocol multiplexer for ipv6.
4) Remove dst_entry caching. vti can lookup multiple different
dst entries, dependent of the configured xfrm states. Therefore
it does not make to cache a dst_entry.
5) Remove caching of flow informations. vti6 does not use the the
tunnel endpoint addresses to do route and xfrm lookups.
6) Update the vti6 to use its own receive hook.
7) Remove the now unused xfrm_tunnel_notifier. This was used from vti
and is replaced by the IPsec protocol multiplexer hooks.
8) Support inter address family tunneling for vti6.
9) Check if the tunnel endpoints of the xfrm state and the vti interface
are matching and return an error otherwise.
10) Enable namespace crossing for vti devices.

Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
* cleanup to remove double semicolon from stephen hemminger.
* calm down sparse warning in xt_ipcomp, from Fan Du.
* nf_ct_labels support for nf_tables, from Florian Westphal.
* new macros to simplify rcu dereferences in the scope of nfnetlink
and nf_tables, from Patrick McHardy.
* Accept queue and drop (including reason for drop) to verdict
parsing in nf_tables, also from Patrick.
* Remove unused random seed initialization in nfnetlink_log, from
Florian Westphal.
* Allow to attach user-specific information to nf_tables rules, useful
to attach user comments to rule, from me.
* Return errors in ipset according to the manpage documentation, from
Jozsef Kadlecsik.
* Fix coccinelle warnings related to incorrect bool type usage for ipset,
from Fengguang Wu.
* Add hash:ip,mark set type to ipset, from Vytas Dauksa.
* Fix message for each spotted by ipset for each netns that is created,
from Ilia Mirkin.
* Add forceadd option to ipset, which evicts a random entry from the set
if it becomes full, from Josh Hunt.
* Minor IPVS cleanups and fixes from Andi Kleen and Tingwei Liu.
* Improve conntrack scalability by removing a central spinlock, original
work from Eric Dumazet. Jesper Dangaard Brouer took them over to address
remaining issues. Several patches to prepare this change come in first
place.
* Rework nft_hash to resolve bugs (leaking chain, missing rcu synchronization
on element removal, etc. from Patrick McHardy.
* Restore context in the rule deletion path, as we now release rule objects
synchronously, from Patrick McHardy. This gets back event notification for
anonymous sets.
* Fix NAT family validation in nft_nat, also from Patrick.
* Improve scalability of xt_connlimit by using an array of spinlocks and
by introducing a rb-tree of hashtables for faster lookup of accounted
objects per network. This patch was preceded by several patches and
refactorizations to accomodate this change including the use of kmem_cache,
from Florian Westphal.

The configuration for CAN FD depends on CAN_CTRLMODE_FD enabled in the driver
specific ctrlmode_supported capabilities.
The configuration can be done either with the 'fd { on | off }' option in the
'ip' tool from iproute2 or by setting the CAN netdevice MTU to CAN_MTU (16) or
to CANFD_MTU (72).

Adds a new property for hash set types, where if a set is created
with the 'forceadd' option and the set becomes full the next addition
to the set may succeed and evict a random entry from the set.
To keep overhead low eviction is done very simply. It checks to see
which bucket the new entry would be added. If the bucket's pos value
is non-zero (meaning there's at least one entry in the bucket) it
replaces the first entry in the bucket. If pos is zero, then it continues
down the normal add process.
This property is useful if you have a set for 'ban' lists where it may
not matter if you release some entries from the set early.

commit 2dfb973c0dcc6d2211 (add markmask for hash:ip,mark data type)
inserted IPSET_ATTR_MARKMASK in-between other enum values, i.e.
changing values of all further attributes. This causes 'ipset list'
segfault on existing kernels since ipset no longer finds
IPSET_ATTR_MEMSIZE (it has a different value on kernel side).
Jozsef points out it should be moved below IPSET_ATTR_MARK which
works since there is some extra reserved space after that value.

Introduce packet mark support with new ip,mark hash set. This includes
userspace and kernelspace code, hash:ip,mark set tests and man page
updates.
The intended use of ip,mark set is similar to the ip:port type, but for
protocols which don't use a predictable port number. Instead of port
number it matches a firewall mark determined by a layer 7 filtering
program like opendpi.
As well as allowing or blocking traffic it will also be used for
accounting packets and bytes sent for each protocol.

Conflicts:

The SIT driver conflict consists of a bug fix being done by hand

Add the following snmp stats:
TCPFastOpenActiveFail: Fast Open attempts (SYN/data) failed beacuse
the remote does not accept it or the attempts timed out.
TCPSynRetrans: number of SYN and SYN/ACK retransmits to break down
retransmissions into SYN, fast-retransmits, timeout retransmits, etc.
TCPOrigDataSent: number of outgoing packets with original data (excluding
retransmission but including data-in-SYN). This counter is different from
TcpOutSegs because TcpOutSegs also tracks pure ACKs. TCPOrigDataSent is
more useful to track the TCP retransmission rate.
Change TCPFastOpenActive to track only successful Fast Opens to be symmetric to
TCPFastOpenPassive.
