As reported by "kbuild test robot" there were some errors and warnings
on attempt to build kernel with "make ARCH=powerpc allmodconfig".
And this patch addresses both errors and warnings.
Below is a list of introduced changes:
1. Fix compile-time errors (misspellings in "dma_unmap_single") on PPC.
2. Use DMA address instead of "skb->data" as a pointer to data buffer.
This fixed warnings on pointer to int conversion on 64-bit systems.
3. Re-implemented initial allocation of Rx buffers in "arc_emac_open" in
the same way they're re-allocated during operation (receiving packets).
So once again DMA address could be used instead of "skb->data".
4. Explicitly use EMAC_BUFFER_SIZE for Rx buffers allocation.

Currently, we fail only when all of the ips in arp_ip_target are gone.
However, in some situations we might need to fail if even one host from
arp_ip_target becomes unavailable.
All situations, obviously, rely on the idea that we need *completely*
functional network, with all interfaces/addresses working correctly.
One real world example might be:
vlans on top on bond (hybrid port). If bond and vlans have ips assigned
and we have their peers monitored via arp_ip_target - in case of switch
misconfiguration (trunk/access port), slave driver malfunction or
tagged/untagged traffic dropped on the way - we will be able to switch
to another slave.
Though any other configuration needs that if we need to have access to all
arp_ip_targets.
This patch adds this possibility by adding a new parameter -
arp_all_targets (both as a module parameter and as a sysfs knob). It can be
set to:
0 or any (the default) - which works exactly as it's working now -
the slave is up if any of the arp_ip_targets are up.
1 or all - the slave is up if all of the arp_ip_targets are up.
This parameter can be changed on the fly (via sysfs), and requires the mode
to be active-backup and arp_validate to be enabled (it obeys the
arp_validate config on which slaves to validate).
Internally it's done through:
1) Add target_last_arp_rx[BOND_MAX_ARP_TARGETS] array to slave struct. It's
an array of jiffies, meaning that slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] is the
last time we've received arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] on this
slave.
2) If we successfully validate an arp from bond->params.arp_targets[i] in
bond_validate_arp() - update the slave->target_last_arp_rx[i] with the
current jiffies value.
3) When getting slave's last_rx via slave_last_rx(), we return the oldest
time when we've received an arp from any address in
bond->params.arp_targets[].
If the value of arp_all_targets == 0 - we still work the same way as
before.
Also, update the documentation to reflect the new parameter.
v3->v4:
Kill the forgotten rtnl_unlock(), rephrase the documentation part to be
more clear, don't fail setting arp_all_targets if arp_validate is not set -
it has no effect anyway but can be easier to set up. Also, print a warning
if the last arp_ip_target is removed while the arp_interval is on, but not
the arp_validate.
v2->v3:
Use _bh spinlock, remove useless rtnl_lock() and use jiffies for new
arp_ip_target last arp, instead of slave_last_rx(). On bond_enslave(),
use the same initialization value for target_last_arp_rx[] as is used
for the default last_arp_rx, to avoid useless interface flaps.
Also, instead of failing to remove the last arp_ip_target just print a
warning - otherwise it might break existing scripts.
v1->v2:
Correctly handle adding/removing hosts in arp_ip_target - we need to
shift/initialize all slave's target_last_arp_rx. Also, don't fail module
loading on arp_all_targets misconfiguration, just disable it, and some
minor style fixes.

Currently, if we receive any arp packet on a backup slave in active-backup
mode and arp_validate enabled, we suppose that it's an arp request, swap
source/target ip and try to validate it. This optimization gives us
virtually no downtime in the most common situation (active and backup
slaves are in the same broadcast domain and the active slave failed).
However, if we can't reach the arp_ip_target(s), we end up in an endless
loop of reselecting slaves, because we receive our arp requests, sent by
the active slave, and think that backup slaves are up, thus selecting them
as active and, again, sending arp requests, which fool our backup slaves.
Fix this by not validating the swapped arp packets if the current active
slave didn't receive any arp reply after it was selected as active. This
way we will only accept arp requests if we know that the current active
slave can actually reach arp_ip_target.
v3->v4:
Obey 80 lines and make checkpatch.pl happy, per Sergei's suggestion.
v1->v3:
No change.

Currently, we validate all the incoming arps if arp_validate not 0.
However, we don't have to validate backup slaves if arp_validate == active
and vice versa, so return early in bond_arp_rcv() in these cases.
It works correctly now because we verify arp_validate in slave_last_rx(),
however we're just doing useless work in bond_arp_rcv().

Add function bond_get_targets_ip(targets, ip) which searches through
targets array of ips (arp_targets) and returns the position of first
match. If ip == 0, returns the first free slot. On failure to find the
ip or free slot, return -1.
Use it to verify if the arp we've received is valid and in sysfs.
v1->v2:
Fix "[2/6] bonding: add helper function bond_get_targets_ip(targets, ip)",
per Nikolay's advice, to verify if source ip != 0.0.0.0, otherwise we might

Macvtap uses a private lock to protect the relationship between
macvtap_queue and macvlan_dev. The private lock is not needed
since the relationship is managed by user via open(), release(),
and dellink() calls. dellink() already happens under rtnl, so
we can safely convert open() and release(), and use it in ioctl()
as well.

select/poll busy-poll support.
Split sysctl value into two separate ones, one for read and one for poll.
updated Documentation/sysctl/net.txt
Add a new poll flag POLL_LL. When this flag is set, sock_poll will call
sk_poll_ll if possible. sock_poll sets this flag in its return value
to indicate to select/poll when a socket that can busy poll is found.
When poll/select have nothing to report, call the low-level
sock_poll again until we are out of time or we find something.
Once the system call finds something, it stops setting POLL_LL, so it can

Rather instead of having the endpoint clean the garbage from the
socket, use a sk_destruct handler sctp_destruct_sock(), that does
the job for that when there are no more references on the socket.
At least do this for our crypto transform through crypto_free_hash()
that is allocated when in listening state.
Also, perform sctp_put_port() only when sk is valid. At a later
point in time we can still determine if there's an option of
placing this into sk_prot->unhash() or sctp_endpoint_free() without
any races. For now, leave it in sctp_endpoint_destroy() though.

Currently, SCTP code defines its own timeval functions (since timeval
is rarely used inside the kernel by others), namely tv_lt() and
TIMEVAL_ADD() macros, that operate on SCTP cookie expiration.
We might as well remove all those, and operate directly on ktime
structures for a couple of reasons: ktime is available on all archs;
complexity of ktime calculations depending on the arch is less than
(reduces to a simple arithmetic operations on archs with
BITS_PER_LONG == 64 or CONFIG_KTIME_SCALAR) or equal to timeval
functions (other archs); code becomes more readable; macros can be
thrown out.

If the tokenized ip address is re-set on an interface we depend on the
arrival of a new router advertisment to call addrconf_verify to clean
up the old address (which valid_lft is now set to 0). Old addresses can
linger around for a longer time if e.g. the source of router advertisments
vanishes.
So, call addrconf_verify immediately after setting the new tokenized
address to get rid of the old tokenized addresses.

This patch splits the timers for duplicate address detection and router
solicitations apart. The router solicitations timer goes into inet6_dev
and the dad timer stays in inet6_ifaddr.
The reason behind this patch is to reduce the number of unneeded router
solicitations send out by the host if additional link-local addresses
are created. Currently we send out RS for every link-local address on
an interface.
If the RS timer fires we pick a source address with ipv6_get_lladdr. This
change could hurt people adding additional link-local addresses and
specifying these addresses in the radvd clients section because we
no longer guarantee that we use every ll address as source address in
router solicitations.

We therefore drop frames more than needed.
This patch tries order-3, order-2, order-1 and finally order-0
allocations to keep good performance, yet allow allocations if/when
memory gets fragmented.
By using larger pages, and avoiding unnecessary get_page()/put_page()

Also use GFP_KERNEL allocations in initialization path, as allocating 12

blkt settings (or LAN idle settings) for an OSA Express card
determine when and how often an OSA Express card tells the
operating system about new incoming packets. The semantic of
these settings has changed starting with OSA Express3. Currently
the qeth standard settings apply to OSA Express2 and older
generations of OSA Express cards, while new generations of OSA
Express cards require extra coding of their reasonable default.
To cover future OSA Express generations the qeth default standard
blkt setting is now the desired setting for OSA generations
starting with OSA Express3, while the fixed set of older OSA
Express cards receives its blkt settings explicitly.

we have a pointer to current tcp_fastopen_context, we do not use/need
rcu_dereference() to access tfm.
This fixes a lot of sparse errors like the following :
net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31: warning: incorrect type in argument 1 (different address spaces)
net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31: expected struct crypto_cipher *tfm
net/ipv4/tcp_fastopen.c:21:31: got struct crypto_cipher [noderef] <asn:4>*tfm

Currently, there is no good possibility to debug netlink traffic that
is being exchanged between kernel and user space. Therefore, this patch
implements a netlink virtual device, so that netlink messages will be
made visible to PF_PACKET sockets. Once there was an approach with a
similar idea [1], but it got forgotten somehow.
I think it makes most sense to accept the "overhead" of an extra netlink
net device over implementing the same functionality from PF_PACKET
sockets once again into netlink sockets. We have BPF filters that can
already be easily applied which even have netlink extensions, we have
RX_RING zero-copy between kernel- and user space that can be reused,
and much more features. So instead of re-implementing all of this, we
simply pass the skb to a given PF_PACKET socket for further analysis.
Another nice benefit that comes from that is that no code needs to be
changed in user space packet analyzers (maybe adding a dissector, but
not more), thus out of the box, we can already capture pcap files of
netlink traffic to debug/troubleshoot netlink problems.
Also thanks goes to Thomas Graf, Flavio Leitner, Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

Similarly to the networking receive path with ptype_all taps, we add
the possibility to register netdevices that are for ARPHRD_NETLINK to
the netlink subsystem, so that those can be used for netlink analyzers
resp. debuggers. We do not offer a direct callback function as out-of-tree
modules could do crap with it. Instead, a netdevice must be registered
properly and only receives a clone, managed by the netlink layer. Symbols
are exported as GPL-only.

This small patch adds the definition of ARPHRD_NETLINK which can for
example be used by netlink monitoring devices as device type. So that
sockaddr_ll can pick it up and based on that choose the correct packet
dissector.
