When checking statistics or changing parameters on a link, the
link_find_link function is used to locate the link with a given
name. The complex method of deconstructing the name into local
and remote address/interface is error prone and may fail if the
interface names contains special characters. We change the lookup
method to iterate over the list of nodes and compare the link
names.

link_cmd_set_value() takes commands for link, bearer and media related
configuration. Genereally the function returns 0 when a command is
recognized, and -EINVAL when it is not. However, in the switch for link
related commands it returns 0 even when the command is unrecognized. This
will sometimes make it look as if a failed configuration command has been
successful, but has otherwise no negative effects.
We remove this anomaly by returning -EINVAL even for link commands. We also
rework all three switches to make them conforming to common kernel coding
style.

Currently, rcv_msg() always returns zero on a packet delivery upcall
from net_device.
To make its behavior more compliant with the way this API should be
used, we change this to let it return NET_RX_SUCCESS (which is zero
anyway) when it is able to handle the packet, and NET_RX_DROP otherwise.
The latter does not imply any functional change, it only enables the
driver to keep more accurate statistics about the fate of delivered
packets.

tipc_block_bearer() currently takes a bearer name (const char*)
as argument. This requires the function to make a lookup to find
the pointer to the corresponding bearer struct. In the current
code base this is not necessary, since the only two callers
(tipc_continue(),recv_notification()) already have validated
copies of this pointer, and hence can pass it directly in the
function call.
We change tipc_block_bearer() to directly take struct tipc_bearer*
as argument instead.

TIPC 'bearer' exists as an abstract concept, while 'media'
is deemed a specific implementation of a bearer, such as Ethernet
or Infiniband media. When a component inside TIPC wants to control
a specific media, it only needs to access the generic bearer API
to achieve this. However, in the current media implementations,
the 'bearer' name is also extensively used in media specific
function and variable names.
This may create confusion, so we choose to replace the term 'bearer'
with 'media' in all function names, variable names, and prefixes
where this is what really is meant.
Note that this change is cosmetic only, and no runtime behaviour
changes are made here.

tipc_msg_build() now copies message data from iovec to skb_buff
using memcpy_fromiovecend(), which doesn't need to be passed the
iovec length to perform the copying.
So we remove the parameter indicating iovec length in all

tipc_msg_build() calls skb_copy_to_linear_data_offset() to copy data
from user space to kernel space. However, the latter function does
in its turn call memcpy() to perform the actual copying. This poses
an obvious security and robustness risk, since memcpy() never makes
any validity check on the pointer it is copying from.
To correct this, we the replace the offending function call with
a call to memcpy_fromiovecend(), which uses copy_from_user() to
perform the copying.

While working on virtio_net new allocation strategy to increase
payload/truesize ratio, we found that refactoring sk_page_frag_refill()
was needed.
This patch splits sk_page_frag_refill() into two parts, adding
skb_page_frag_refill() which can be used without a socket.
While we are at it, add a minimum frag size of 32 for
sk_page_frag_refill()
Michael will either use netdev_alloc_frag() from softirq context,
or skb_page_frag_refill() from process context in refill_work()
(GFP_KERNEL allocations)

John W. Linville says:
====================
This is a batch of updates intended for the 3.13 stream...
The biggest item of interest in here is wcn36xx, the new mac80211
driver for Qualcomm WCN3660/WCN3680 hardware.
Regarding the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"We have an assortment of cleanups and new features, of which the
biggest one is probably the channel-switch support in IBSS. Nothing
else really stands out much."
On top of that, the ath9k and rt2x00 get a lot of update action from
Felix Fietkau and Gabor Juhos, respectively. There are a handful of
updates to other drivers here and there as well.
Please let me know if there are problems!

Limit the current implementation to a single channel context used by
a single vif, thereby avoiding multi-vif/channel complexities.
Reuse the main function from AP CSA code, but move a portion out in
order to fit the STA scenario.
Add a new mac80211 HW flag so we don't break devices that don't support
channel switch with channel-contexts. The new behavior will be opt-in.

If allowed in a country, these channels typically require DFS
so mark them as such. Channel 144 is a bit special, it's coming
into use now to allow more VHT 80 channels, but world roaming
with passive scanning is acceptable anyway. It seems fairly
unlikely that it'll be used as the control channel for a VHT
AP, but it needs to be present to allow a full VHT connection
to an AP that uses it as one of the secondary channels.
Also enable VHT 160 on these channels, and also for channels
36-48 to be able to use VHT 160 there.

Some devices may not be able to report A-MSDUs in
single buffers. Drivers for such devices were
forced to re-assemble A-MSDUs which would then
be eventually disassembled by mac80211. This could
lead to CPU cache thrashing and poor performance.
Since A-MSDU has a single sequence number all
subframes share it. This was in conflict with
retransmission/duplication recovery
(IEEE802.11-2012: 9.3.2.10).
Patch introduces a new flag that is meant to be
set for all individually reported A-MSDU subframes
except the last one. This ensures the
last_seq_ctrl is updated after the last subframe
is processed. If an A-MSDU is actually a duplicate
transmission all reported subframes will be
properly discarded.

This function adds the channel switch announcement implementation for the
IBSS code. It is triggered by userspace (mac80211/cfg) or by external
channel switch announcement, which have to be adopted. Both CSAs in

switch is applied after some time. However in IBSS mode, the channel
switch IEs are generated in the kernel.

If it is needed to disconnect multiple virtual interfaces after
(WoWLAN-) suspend, the most obvious approach would be to iterate
all interfaces by calling ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces()
and then call ieee80211_resume_disconnect() for each one. This
is what the iwlmvm driver does.
Unfortunately, this causes a locking dependency from mac80211's
iflist_mtx to the key_mtx. This is problematic as the former is
intentionally never held while calling any driver operation to
allow drivers to iterate with their own locks held. The key_mtx
is held while installing a key into the driver though, so this
new lock dependency means drivers implementing the logic above
can no longer hold their own lock while iterating.
To fix this, add a new ieee80211_iterate_active_interfaces_rtnl()
function that iterates while the RTNL is already held. This is
true during suspend/resume, so that then the locking dependency
isn't introduced.
While at it, also refactor the various interface iterators and
keep only a single implementation called by the various cases.

====================
netfilter updates: nf_tables pull request
The following patchset contains the current original nf_tables tree
condensed in 17 patches. I have organized them by chronogical order
since the original nf_tables code was released in 2009 and by
dependencies between the different patches.
The patches are:
1) Adapt all existing hooks in the tree to pass hook ops to the
hook callback function, required by nf_tables, from Patrick McHardy.
2) Move alloc_null_binding to nf_nat_core, as it is now also needed by
nf_tables and ip_tables, original patch from Patrick McHardy but
required major changes to adapt it to the current tree that I made.
3) Add nf_tables core, including the netlink API, the packet filtering
engine, expressions and built-in tables, from Patrick McHardy. This
patch includes accumulated fixes since 2009 and minor enhancements.
The patch description contains a list of references to the original
patches for the record. For those that are not familiar to the
original work, see [1], [2] and [3].
4) Add netlink set API, this replaces the original set infrastructure
to introduce a netlink API to add/delete sets and to add/delete
set elements. This includes two set types: the hash and the rb-tree
sets (used for interval based matching). The main difference with
ipset is that this infrastructure is data type agnostic. Patch from
Patrick McHardy.
5) Allow expression operation overload, this API change allows us to
provide define expression subtypes depending on the configuration
that is received from user-space via Netlink. It is used by follow
up patches to provide optimized versions of the payload and cmp
expressions and the x_tables compatibility layer, from Patrick
McHardy.
6) Add optimized data comparison operation, it requires the previous
patch, from Patrick McHardy.
7) Add optimized payload implementation, it requires patch 5, from
Patrick McHardy.
8) Convert built-in tables to chain types. Each chain type have special
semantics (filter, route and nat) that are used by userspace to
configure the chain behaviour. The main chain regarding iptables
is that tables become containers of chain, with no specific semantics.
However, you may still configure your tables and chains to retain
iptables like semantics, patch from me.
9) Add compatibility layer for x_tables. This patch adds support to
use all existing x_tables extensions from nf_tables, this is used
to provide a userspace utility that accepts iptables syntax but
used internally the nf_tables kernel core. This patch includes
missing features in the nf_tables core such as the per-chain
stats, default chain policy and number of chain references, which
are required by the iptables compatibility userspace tool. Patch
from me.
10) Fix transport protocol matching, this fix is a side effect of the
x_tables compatibility layer, which now provides a pointer to the
transport header, from me.
11) Add support for dormant tables, this feature allows you to disable
all chains and rules that are contained in one table, from me.
12) Add IPv6 NAT support. At the time nf_tables was made, there was no
NAT IPv6 support yet, from Tomasz Bursztyka.
13) Complete net namespace support. This patch register the protocol
family per net namespace, so tables (thus, other objects contained
in tables such as sets, chains and rules) are only visible from the
corresponding net namespace, from me.
14) Add the insert operation to the nf_tables netlink API, this requires
adding a new position attribute that allow us to locate where in the
ruleset a rule needs to be inserted, from Eric Leblond.
15) Add rule batching support, including atomic rule-set updates by
using rule-set generations. This patch includes a change to nfnetlink
to include two new control messages to indicate the beginning and
the end of a batch. The end message is interpreted as the commit
message, if it's missing, then the rule-set updates contained in the
batch are aborted, from me.
16) Add trace support to the nf_tables packet filtering core, from me.
17) Add ARP filtering support, original patch from Patrick McHardy, but
adapted to fit into the chain type infrastructure. This was recovered
to be used by nft userspace tool and our compatibility arptables
userspace tool.
There is still work to do to fully replace x_tables [4] [5] but that can
be done incrementally by extending our netlink API. Moreover, looking at
netfilter-devel and the amount of contributions to nf_tables we've been
getting, I think it would be good to have it mainstream to avoid accumulating
large patchsets skip continuous rebases.
I tried to provide a reasonable patchset, we have more than 100 accumulated
patches in the original nf_tables tree, so I collapsed many of the small
fixes to the main patch we had since 2009 and provide a small batch for
review to netdev, while trying to retain part of the history.
For those who didn't give a try to nf_tables yet, there's a quick howto
available from Eric Leblond that describes how to get things working [6].
Comments/reviews welcome.
Thanks!

This patch adds a batch support to nfnetlink. Basically, it adds
two new control messages:
* NFNL_MSG_BATCH_BEGIN, that indicates the beginning of a batch,
the nfgenmsg->res_id indicates the nfnetlink subsystem ID.
* NFNL_MSG_BATCH_END, that results in the invocation of the
ss->commit callback function. If not specified or an error
ocurred in the batch, the ss->abort function is invoked
instead.
The end message represents the commit operation in nftables, the
lack of end message results in an abort. This patch also adds the
.call_batch function that is only called from the batch receival
path.
This patch adds atomic rule updates and dumps based on
bitmask generations. This allows to atomically commit a set of
rule-set updates incrementally without altering the internal
state of existing nf_tables expressions/matches/targets.
The idea consists of using a generation cursor of 1 bit and
a bitmask of 2 bits per rule. Assuming the gencursor is 0,
then the genmask (expressed as a bitmask) can be interpreted
as:
00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation.
01 inactive in the present, will be active in the next generation.
10 active in the present, will be deleted in the next generation.
^
gencursor
Once you invoke the transition to the next generation, the global
gencursor is updated:
00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation.
01 active in the present, needs to zero its future, it becomes 00.
10 inactive in the present, delete now.
^
gencursor
If a dump is in progress and nf_tables enters a new generation,
the dump will stop and return -EBUSY to let userspace know that
it has to retry again. In order to invalidate dumps, a global
genctr counter is increased everytime nf_tables enters a new
generation.
This new operation can be used from the user-space utility
that controls the firewall, eg.
nft -f restore
The rule updates contained in `file' will be applied atomically.
cat file
-----
add filter INPUT ip saddr 1.1.1.1 counter accept #1
del filter INPUT ip daddr 2.2.2.2 counter drop #2
-EOF-
Note that the rule 1 will be inactive until the transition to the
next generation, the rule 2 will be evicted in the next generation.
There is a penalty during the rule update due to the branch
misprediction in the packet matching framework. But that should be
quickly resolved once the iteration over the commit list that
contain rules that require updates is finished.
Event notification happens once the rule-set update has been
committed. So we skip notifications is case the rule-set update
is aborted, which can happen in case that the rule-set is tested
to apply correctly.
This patch squashed the following patches from Pablo:
* nf_tables: atomic rule updates and dumps
* nf_tables: get rid of per rule list_head for commits
* nf_tables: use per netns commit list
* nfnetlink: add batch support and use it from nf_tables
* nf_tables: all rule updates are transactional
* nf_tables: attach replacement rule after stale one
* nf_tables: do not allow deletion/replacement of stale rules
* nf_tables: remove unused NFTA_RULE_FLAGS

This patch adds a new rule attribute NFTA_RULE_POSITION which is
used to store the position of a rule relatively to the others.
By providing the create command and specifying the position, the
rule is inserted after the rule with the handle equal to the
provided position.
Regarding notification, the position attribute specifies the
handle of the previous rule to make sure we don't point to any
stale rule in notifications coming from the commit path.

* nf_tables: fix rule deletion event reporting

This patch allows you to temporarily disable an entire table.
You can change the state of a dormant table via NFT_MSG_NEWTABLE
messages. Using this operation you can wake up a table, so their
chains are registered.
This provides atomicity at chain level. Thus, the rule-set of one
chain is applied at once, avoiding any possible intermediate state
in every chain. Still, the chains that belongs to a table are
registered consecutively. This also allows you to have inactive
tables in the kernel.

This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you
to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables.
This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets
for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively
replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the
userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the
rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel
components.
In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the
following things:
* add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used
to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to
use the native x_table getsockopt interface.
* emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo
to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from
ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets.
* add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate
x_tables.
* add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to
chains, required by x_tables emulation.
* add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu.
* support 32-64 bits compat.
For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches
that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list.
From Pablo Neira Ayuso:
* nf_tables: add default policy to base chains
* netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute
* nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area
* nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target
* nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets
* nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option
* nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module
* nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain
* nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed
* nf_tables: don't bump chain stats
* nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables
* nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation
* nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6]
* nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat
* nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled
From Patrick McHardy:
* nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain
* nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes
From Alexander Primak:
* nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT
From Nicolas Dichtel:
* nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module

This patch converts built-in tables/chains to chain types that
allows you to deploy customized table and chain configurations from
userspace.
After this patch, you have to specify the chain type when
creating a new chain:
add chain ip filter output { type filter hook input priority 0; }
^^^^ ------
The existing chain types after this patch are: filter, route and
nat. Note that tables are just containers of chains with no specific
semantics, which is a significant change with regards to iptables.
