NFSv4: Return delegations synchronously in evict_inode
SUNRPC: Fix a regression when reconnecting
NFS: remount with security change should return EINVAL
nfs: do not export discarded symbols
NFSv4.1: don't export static symbol -
v2: gracefully handle the case where some dentry pointers end up NULL
and be more dilligent about zeroing out dentry pointersWe currently have a problem that SELinux policy is being enforced when
creating debugfs files. If a debugfs file is created as a side effect of
doing some syscall, then that creation can fail if the SELinux policy
for that process prevents it.This seems wrong. We don't do that for files under /proc, for instance,
so Bruce has proposed a patch to fix that.While discussing that patch however, Greg K.H. stated:
"No kernel code should care / fail if a debugfs function fails, so
please fix up the sunrpc code first."This patch converts all of the sunrpc debugfs setup code to be void
return functins, and the callers to not look for errors from those
functions.This should allow rpc_clnt and rpc_xprt creation to work, even if the
kernel fails to create debugfs files for some reason.Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman

This is an improved straw bucket that correctly avoids any data movement
between items A and B when neither A nor B's weights are changed. Said
differently, if we adjust the weight of item C (including adding it anew
or removing it completely), we will only see inputs move to or from C,
never between other items in the bucket.Notably, there is not intermediate scaling factor that needs to be
calculated. The mapping function is a simple function of the item weights.The below commits were squashed together into this one (mostly to avoid
adding and then yanking a ~6000 lines worth of crush_ln_table):- crush: add a straw2 bucket type
- crush: add crush_ln to calculate nature log efficently

When you redirect a VLAN device to any device, you end up with
crap in af_packet on the xmit path because hard_header_len is
not equal to skb->mac_len. So the redirected packet contains
four extra bytes at the start which then gets interpreted as
part of the MAC address.This patch fixes this by only pushing skb->mac_len. We also

For the short-term solution, lets fix bpf helper functions to use
skb->mac_header relative offsets instead of skb->data in order to
get the same eBPF programs with cls_bpf and act_bpf work on ingress
and egress qdisc path. We need to ensure that mac_header is set
before calling into programs. This is effectively the first option
from below referenced discussion.More long term solution for LD_ABS|LD_IND instructions will be more
intrusive but also more beneficial than this, and implemented later
as it's too risky at this point in time.I.e., we plan to look into the option of moving skb_pull() out of
eth_type_trans() and into netif_receive_skb() as has been suggested
as second option. Meanwhile, this solution ensures ingress can be
used with eBPF, too, and that we won't run into ABI troubles later.
For dealing with negative offsets inside eBPF helper functions,
we've implemented bpf_skb_clone_unwritable() to test for unwriteable
headers.Reference: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/359129/focus=359694

The current semantics of string_escape_mem are inadequate for one of its
current users, vsnprintf(). If that is to honour its contract, it must
know how much space would be needed for the entire escaped buffer, and
string_escape_mem provides no way of obtaining that (short of allocating a
large enough buffer (~4 times input string) to let it play with, and
that's definitely a big no-no inside vsnprintf).So change the semantics for string_escape_mem to be more snprintf-like:
Return the size of the output that would be generated if the destination
buffer was big enough, but of course still only write to the part of dst
it is allowed to, and (contrary to snprintf) don't do '\0'-termination.
It is then up to the caller to detect whether output was truncated and to
append a '\0' if desired. Also, we must output partial escape sequences,
otherwise a call such as snprintf(buf, 3, "%1pE", "\123") would cause
printf to write a \0 to buf[2] but leaving buf[0] and buf[1] with whatever
they previously contained.This also fixes a bug in the escaped_string() helper function, which used
to unconditionally pass a length of "end-buf" to string_escape_mem();
since the latter doesn't check osz for being insanely large, it would
happily write to dst. For example, kasprintf(GFP_KERNEL, "something and
then %pE", ...); is an easy way to trigger an oops.In test-string_helpers.c, the -ENOMEM test is replaced with testing for
getting the expected return value even if the buffer is too small. We
also ensure that nothing is written (by relying on a NULL pointer deref)
if the output size is 0 by passing NULL - this has to work for
kasprintf("%pE") to work.In net/sunrpc/cache.c, I think qword_add still has the same semantics.
Someone should definitely double-check this.In fs/proc/array.c, I made the minimum possible change, but longer-term it
should stop poking around in seq_file internals.[andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com: simplify qword_add]

There are a lot of embedded systems that run most or all of their
functionality in init, running as root:root. For these systems,
supporting multiple users is not necessary.This patch adds a new symbol, CONFIG_MULTIUSER, that makes support for
non-root users, non-root groups, and capabilities optional. It is enabled
under CONFIG_EXPERT menu.When this symbol is not defined, UID and GID are zero in any possible case
and processes always have all capabilities.The following syscalls are compiled out: setuid, setregid, setgid,
setreuid, setresuid, getresuid, setresgid, getresgid, setgroups,
getgroups, setfsuid, setfsgid, capget, capset.Also, groups.c is compiled out completely.
In kernel/capability.c, capable function was moved in order to avoid
adding two ifdef blocks.This change saves about 25 KB on a defconfig build. The most minimal
kernels have total text sizes in the high hundreds of kB rather than
low MB. (The 25k goes down a bit with allnoconfig, but not that much.The kernel was booted in Qemu. All the common functionalities work.
Adding users/groups is not possible, failing with -ENOSYS.Bloat-o-meter output:

Borkmann.6) Remove the ugly compat support in ARP for ugly layers like ax25,
rose, etc. And use this to clean up the neigh layer, then use it to
implement MPLS support. All from Eric Biederman.7) Support L3 forwarding offloading in switches, from Scott Feldman.
8) Collapse the LOCAL and MAIN ipv4 FIB tables when possible, to speed
up route lookups even further. From Alexander Duyck.9) Many improvements and bug fixes to the rhashtable implementation,
from Herbert Xu and Thomas Graf. In particular, in the case where
an rhashtable user bulk adds a large number of items into an empty
table, we expand the table much more sanely.10) Don't make the tcp_metrics hash table per-namespace, from Eric
Biederman.11) Extend EBPF to access SKB fields, from Alexei Starovoitov.
12) Split out new connection request sockets so that they can be
established in the main hash table. Much less false sharing since
hash lookups go direct to the request sockets instead of having to
go first to the listener then to the request socks hashed
underneath. From Eric Dumazet.13) Add async I/O support for crytpo AF_ALG sockets, from Tadeusz Struk.
14) Support stable privacy address generation for RFC7217 in IPV6. From
Hannes Frederic Sowa.15) Hash network namespace into IP frag IDs, also from Hannes Frederic
Sowa.16) Convert PTP get/set methods to use 64-bit time, from Richard
Cochran.* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1816 commits)

NOTE: this is not about __GFP_THISNODE, this is only about GFP_THISNODE.
GFP_THISNODE is a secret combination of gfp bits that have different
behavior than expected. It is a combination of __GFP_THISNODE,
__GFP_NORETRY, and __GFP_NOWARN and is special-cased in the page
allocator slowpath to fail without trying reclaim even though it may be
used in combination with __GFP_WAIT.An example of the problem this creates: commit e97ca8e5b864 ("mm: fix
GFP_THISNODE callers and clarify") fixed up many users of GFP_THISNODE
that really just wanted __GFP_THISNODE. The problem doesn't end there,
however, because even it was a no-op for alloc_misplaced_dst_page(),
which also sets __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWARN, and
migrate_misplaced_transhuge_page(), where __GFP_NORETRY and __GFP_NOWAIT
is set in GFP_TRANSHUGE. Converting GFP_THISNODE to __GFP_THISNODE is a
no-op in these cases since the page allocator special-cases
__GFP_THISNODE && __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN.It's time to just remove GFP_THISNODE entirely. We leave __GFP_THISNODE
to restrict an allocation to a local node, but remove GFP_THISNODE and
its obscurity. Instead, we require that a caller clear __GFP_WAIT if it
wants to avoid reclaim.This allows the aforementioned functions to actually reclaim as they
should. It also enables any future callers that want to do
__GFP_THISNODE but also __GFP_NORETRY && __GFP_NOWARN to reclaim. The
rule is simple: if you don't want to reclaim, then don't set __GFP_WAIT.Aside: ovs_flow_stats_update() really wants to avoid reclaim as well, so
it is unchanged.Signed-off-by: David Rientjes

====================
Netfilter updates for net-nextA final pull request, I know it's very late but this time I think it's worth a
bit of rush.The following patchset contains Netfilter/nf_tables updates for net-next, more
specifically concatenation support and dynamic stateful expression
instantiation.This also comes with a couple of small patches. One to fix the ebtables.h
userspace header and another to get rid of an obsolete example file in tree
that describes a nf_tables expression.This time, I decided to paste the original descriptions. This will result in a
rather large commit description, but I think these bytes to keep.Patrick McHardy says:
====================
netfilter: nf_tables: concatenation supportThe following patches add support for concatenations, which allow multi
dimensional exact matches in O(1).The basic idea is to split the data registers, currently consisting of
4 registers of 16 bytes each, into smaller units, 16 registers of 4
bytes each, and making sure each register store always leaves the
full 32 bit in a well defined state, meaning smaller stores will
zero the remaining bits.Based on that, we can load multiple adjacent registers with different
values, thereby building a concatenated bigger value, and use that
value for set lookups.Sets are changed to use variable sized extensions for their key and
data values, removing the fixed limit of 16 bytes while saving memory
if less space is needed.As a side effect, these patches will allow some nice optimizations in
the future, like using jhash2 in nft_hash, removing the masking in
nft_cmp_fast, optimized data comparison using 32 bit word size etc.
These are not done so far however.The patches are split up as follows:
* the first five patches add length validation to register loads and
stores to make sure we stay within bounds and prepare the validation
functions for the new addressing mode* the next patches prepare for changing to 32 bit addressing by
introducing a struct nft_regs, which holds the verdict register as
well as the data registers. The verdict members are moved to a new
struct nft_verdict to allow to pull struct nft_data out of the stack.* the next patches contain preparatory conversions of expressions and
sets to use 32 bit addressing* the next patch introduces so far unused register conversion helpers
for parsing and dumping register numbers over netlink* following is the real conversion to 32 bit addressing, consisting of
replacing struct nft_data in struct nft_regs by an array of u32s and
actually translating and validating the new register numbers.* the final two patches add support for variable sized data items and
variable sized keys / data in set elementsThe patches have been verified to work correctly with nft binaries using
both old and new addressing.
====================Patrick McHardy says:
====================
netfilter: nf_tables: dynamic stateful expression instantiationThe following patches are the grand finale of my nf_tables set work,
using all the building blocks put in place by the previous patches
to support something like iptables hashlimit, but a lot more powerful.Sets are extended to allow attaching expressions to set elements.
The dynset expression dynamically instantiates these expressions
based on a template when creating new set elements and evaluates
them for all new or updated set members.In combination with concatenations this effectively creates state
tables for arbitrary combinations of keys, using the existing
expression types to maintain that state. Regular set GC takes care
of purging expired states.We currently support two different stateful expressions, counter
and limit. Using limit as a template we can express the functionality
of hashlimit, but completely unrestricted in the combination of keys.
Using counter we can perform accounting for arbitrary flows.The following examples from patch 5/5 show some possibilities.
Userspace syntax is still WIP, especially the listing of state
tables will most likely be seperated from normal set listings
and use a more structured format:1. Limit the rate of new SSH connections per host, similar to iptables
hashlimit:flow ip saddr timeout 60s \
limit 10/second \
accept2. Account network traffic between each set of /24 networks:
flow ip saddr & 255.255.255.0 . ip daddr & 255.255.255.0 \
counter3. Account traffic to each host per user:
flow skuid . ip daddr \
counter4. Account traffic for each combination of source address and TCP flags:
flow ip saddr . tcp flags \
counterThe resulting set content after a Xmas-scan look like this:
{
192.168.122.1 . fin | psh | urg : counter packets 1001 bytes 40040,
192.168.122.1 . ack : counter packets 74 bytes 3848,
192.168.122.1 . psh | ack : counter packets 35 bytes 3144
}In the future the "expressions attached to elements" will be extended
to also support user created non-stateful expressions to allow to
efficiently select beween a set of parameter sets, f.i. a set of log
statements with different prefixes based on the interface, which currently
require one rule each. This will most likely have to wait until the next
kernel version though.

Pull vfs update from Al Viro:
"Part one:- struct filename-related cleanups
- saner iov_iter_init() replacements (and switching the syscalls to
use of those)- ntfs switch to ->write_iter() (Anton)
- aio cleanups and splitting iocb into common and async parts
