This patch replaces/reworks the kernel-internal BPF interpreter with
an optimized BPF instruction set format that is modelled closer to
mimic native instruction sets and is designed to be JITed with one to
one mapping. Thus, the new interpreter is noticeably faster than the
current implementation of sk_run_filter(); mainly for two reasons:1. Fall-through jumps:
BPF jump instructions are forced to go either 'true' or 'false'
branch which causes branch-miss penalty. The new BPF jump
instructions have only one branch and fall-through otherwise,
which fits the CPU branch predictor logic better. `perf stat`
shows drastic difference for branch-misses between the old and
new code.2. Jump-threaded implementation of interpreter vs switch
statement:Instead of single table-jump at the top of 'switch' statement,
gcc will now generate multiple table-jump instructions, which
helps CPU branch predictor logic.Note that the verification of filters is still being done through
sk_chk_filter() in classical BPF format, so filters from user- or
kernel space are verified in the same way as we do now, and same
restrictions/constraints hold as well.We reuse current BPF JIT compilers in a way that this upgrade would
even be fine as is, but nevertheless allows for a successive upgrade
of BPF JIT compilers to the new format.The internal instruction set migration is being done after the
probing for JIT compilation, so in case JIT compilers are able to
create a native opcode image, we're going to use that, and in all
other cases we're doing a follow-up migration of the BPF program's
instruction set, so that it can be transparently run in the new
interpreter.In short, the *internal* format extends BPF in the following way (more
details can be taken from the appended documentation):- Number of registers increase from 2 to 10
- Register width increases from 32-bit to 64-bit
- Conditional jt/jf targets replaced with jt/fall-through
- Adds signed > and >= insns
- 16 4-byte stack slots for register spill-fill replaced
with up to 512 bytes of multi-use stack space
- Introduction of bpf_call insn and register passing convention
for zero overhead calls from/to other kernel functions
- Adds arithmetic right shift and endianness conversion insns
- Adds atomic_add insn
- Old tax/txa insns are replaced with 'mov dst,src' insnPerformance of two BPF filters generated by libpcap resp. bpf_asm
was measured on x86_64, i386 and arm32 (other libpcap programs
have similar performance differences):fprog #1 is taken from Documentation/networking/filter.txt:
tcpdump -i eth0 port 22 -ddfprog #2 is taken from 'man tcpdump':
tcpdump -i eth0 'tcp port 22 and (((ip[2:2] - ((ip[0]&0xf)<>2)) != 0)' -ddRaw performance data from BPF micro-benchmark: SK_RUN_FILTER on the

top of AF_PACKET (or other families) such as libpcap/tcpdump, cls_bpf
classifier, netfilter's xt_bpf, team driver's load-balancing mode,
and many more will have better interpreter filtering performance.While we are replacing the internal BPF interpreter, we also need
to convert seccomp BPF in the same step to make use of the new
internal structure since it makes use of lower-level API details
without being further decoupled through higher-level calls like
sk_unattached_filter_{create,destroy}(), for example.Just as for normal socket filtering, also seccomp BPF experiences
a time-to-verdict speedup:05-sim-long_jumps.c of libseccomp was used as micro-benchmark:
seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,...
seccomp_rule_add_exact(ctx,...rc = seccomp_load(ctx);
for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++)
syscall(199, 100);'short filter' has 2 rules
'large filter' has 200 rules'short filter' performance is slightly better on x86_64/i386/arm32
'large filter' is much faster on x86_64 and i386 and shows no
difference on arm32--x86_64-- short filter

internal BPF performance is better than the old one. Performance
gains will be even higher when BPF JIT is committed for the
new structure, which is planned in future work (as successive
JIT migrations).BPF has also been stress-tested with trinity's BPF fuzzer.

There are currently pch_gbe, cpts, and ixp4xx_eth drivers that open-code
and reimplement a BPF classifier for the PTP protocol. Since all of them
effectively do the very same thing and load the very same PTP/BPF filter,
we can just consolidate that code by introducing ptp_classify_raw() in
the time-stamping core framework which can be used in drivers.As drivers get initialized after bootstrapping the core networking
subsystem, they can make use of ptp_insns wrapped through
ptp_classify_raw(), which allows to simplify and remove PTP classifier
setup code in drivers.Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

This patch migrates an open-coded sk_run_filter() implementation with
proper use of the BPF API, that is, sk_unattached_filter_create(). This
migration is needed, as we will be internally transforming the filter
to a different representation, and therefore needs to be decoupled.It is okay to do so as skb_timestamping_init() is called during
initialization of the network stack in core initcall via sock_init().
This would effectively also allow for PTP filters to be jit compiled if
bpf_jit_enable is set.For better readability, there are also some newlines introduced, also
ptp_classify.h is only in kernel space.Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

This patch basically does two things, i) removes the extern keyword
from the include/linux/filter.h file to be more consistent with the
rest of Joe's changes, and ii) moves filter accounting into the filter
core framework.Filter accounting mainly done through sk_filter_{un,}charge() take
care of the case when sockets are being cloned through sk_clone_lock()
so that removal of the filter on one socket won't result in eviction
as it's still referenced by the other.These functions actually belong to net/core/filter.c and not
include/net/sock.h as we want to keep all that in a central place.
It's also not in fast-path so uninlining them is fine and even allows
us to get rd of sk_filter_release_rcu()'s EXPORT_SYMBOL and a forward
declaration.Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

In order to open up the possibility to internally transform a BPF program
into an alternative and possibly non-trivial reversible representation, we
need to keep the original BPF program around, so that it can be passed back
to user space w/o the need of a complex decoder.The reason for that use case resides in commit a8fc92778080 ("sk-filter:
Add ability to get socket filter program (v2)"), that is, the ability
to retrieve the currently attached BPF filter from a given socket used
mainly by the checkpoint-restore project, for example.Therefore, we add two helpers sk_{store,release}_orig_filter for taking
care of that. In the sk_unattached_filter_create() case, there's no such
possibility/requirement to retrieve a loaded BPF program. Therefore, we
can spare us the work in that case.This approach will simplify and slightly speed up both, sk_get_filter()
and sock_diag_put_filterinfo() handlers as we won't need to successively
decode filters anymore through sk_decode_filter(). As we still need
sk_decode_filter() later on, we're keeping it around.Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

This patch adds a jited flag into sk_filter struct in order to indicate
whether a filter is currently jited or not. The size of sk_filter is
not being expanded as the 32 bit 'len' member allows upper bits to be
reused since a filter can currently only grow as large as BPF_MAXINSNS.Therefore, there's enough room also for other in future needed flags to
reuse 'len' field if necessary. The jited flag also allows for having
alternative interpreter functions running as currently, we can only
detect jit compiled filters by testing fp->bpf_func to not equal the
address of sk_run_filter().Joint work with Alexei Starovoitov.

Stop taking the transmit lock when a network device has specified
NETIF_F_LLTX.If no locks needed to trasnmit a packet this is the ideal scenario for
netpoll as all packets can be trasnmitted immediately.Even if some locks are needed in ndo_start_xmit skipping any unnecessary

skb_network_protocol() already accounts for multiple vlan
headers that may be present in the skb. However, skb_mac_gso_segment()
doesn't know anything about it and assumes that skb->mac_len
is set correctly to skip all mac headers. That may not
always be the case. If we are simply forwarding the packet (via
bridge or macvtap), all vlan headers may not be accounted for.A simple solution is to allow skb_network_protocol to return
the vlan depth it has calculated. This way skb_mac_gso_segment
will correctly skip all mac headers.Signed-off-by: Vlad Yasevich

John W. Linville says:
====================
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.

This patch adds a pair of new ioctls to the PTP Hardware Clock device
interface. Using the ioctls, user space programs can query each pin to
find out its current function and also reprogram a different function
if desired.Signed-off-by: Richard Cochran

Pull trace fix from Steven Rostedt:
"Vaibhav Nagarnaik discovered that since 3.10 a clean-up patch made the
array index in the trace event format bogus.He supplied an elegant solution that uses __stringify() and also
removes the need for the event_storage and event_storage_mutex and
also cuts off a few K of overhead from the trace events"* tag 'trace-fixes-v3.14-rc7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-trace:

Add remove_linear_migration_ptes_from_nonlinear(), to fix an interesting
little include/linux/swapops.h:131 BUG_ON(!PageLocked) found by trinity:
indicating that remove_migration_ptes() failed to find one of the
migration entries that was temporarily inserted.The problem comes from remap_file_pages()'s switch from vma_interval_tree
(good for inserting the migration entry) to i_mmap_nonlinear list (no good
for locating it again); but can only be a problem if the remap_file_pages()
range does not cover the whole of the vma (zap_pte() clears the range).remove_migration_ptes() needs a file_nonlinear method to go down the
i_mmap_nonlinear list, applying linear location to look for migration
entries in those vmas too, just in case there was this race.The file_nonlinear method does need rmap_walk_control.arg to do this;
but it never needed vma passed in - vma comes from its own iteration.Reported-and-tested-by: Dave Jones

According to "Universal Serial Bus Communications Class Subclass
Specification for Mobile Broadband Interface Model, Revision 1.0,
Errata-1" published by USB-IF, the wMTU field of the MBIM extended
functional descriptor indicates the operator preferred MTU for IP data
streams.This patch modifies cdc_ncm_setup to ensure that the MTU value set on
the usbnet device does not exceed the operator preferred MTU indicated
by wMTU if the MBIM device exposes a MBIM extended functional
descriptor.Signed-off-by: Ben Chan

Adds support for N-Port VFs, this includes:
1. Adding support in the wrapped FW command
In wrapped commands, we need to verify and convert
the slave's port into the real physical port.
Furthermore, when sending the response back to the slave,
a reverse conversion should be made.
2. Adjusting sqpn for QP1 para-virtualization
The slave assumes that sqpn is used for QP1 communication.
If the slave is assigned to a port != (first port), we need
to adjust the sqpn that will direct its QP1 packets into the
correct endpoint.
3. Adjusting gid[5] to modify the port for raw ethernet
In B0 steering, gid[5] contains the port. It needs
to be adjusted into the physical port.
4. Adjusting number of ports in the query / ports caps in the FW commands
When a slave queries the hardware, it needs to view only
the physical ports it's assigned to.
5. Adjusting the sched_qp according to the port number
The QP port is encoded in the sched_qp, thus in modify_qp we need
to encode the correct port in sched_qp.Signed-off-by: Matan Barak

This patch adds the following utils:
1. Convert slave_id -> VF
2. Get the active ports by slave_id
3. Convert slave's port to real port
4. Get the slave's port from real port
5. Get all slaves that uses the i'th real port
6. Get all slaves that uses the i'th real port exclusivelySigned-off-by: Matan Barak

In event format strings, the array size is reported in two locations.
One in array subscript and then via the "size:" attribute. The values
reported there have a mismatch.For e.g., in sched:sched_switch the prev_comm and next_comm character
arrays have subscript values as [32] where as the actual field size is
16.name: sched_switch
ID: 301
format:
field:unsigned short common_type; offset:0; size:2; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_flags; offset:2; size:1; signed:0;
field:unsigned char common_preempt_count; offset:3; size:1;signed:0;
field:int common_pid; offset:4; size:4; signed:1;field:char prev_comm[32]; offset:8; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t prev_pid; offset:24; size:4; signed:1;
field:int prev_prio; offset:28; size:4; signed:1;
field:long prev_state; offset:32; size:8; signed:1;
field:char next_comm[32]; offset:40; size:16; signed:1;
field:pid_t next_pid; offset:56; size:4; signed:1;
field:int next_prio; offset:60; size:4; signed:1;After bisection, the following commit was blamed:
92edca0 tracing: Use direct field, type and system namesThis commit removes the duplication of strings for field->name and
field->type assuming that all the strings passed in
__trace_define_field() are immutable. This is not true for arrays, where
the type string is created in event_storage variable and field->type for
all array fields points to event_storage.Use __stringify() to create a string constant for the type string.
Also, get rid of event_storage and event_storage_mutex that are not
needed anymore.also, an added benefit is that this reduces the overhead of events a bit more:

This is a context modified revert of commit 6a9612e2cb22
("net: cdc_ncm: remove ncm_parm field") which introduced
a NCM specification violation, causing setup errors for
some devices. These errors resulted in the device and
host disagreeing about shared settings, with complete
failure to communicate as the end result.The NCM specification require that many of the NCM specific
control reuests are sent only while the NCM Data Interface
is in alternate setting 0. Reverting the commit ensures that
we follow this requirement.Fixes: 6a9612e2cb22 ("net: cdc_ncm: remove ncm_parm field")
