ac1ed8b82c sctp: introduce round robin stream scheduler
This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.2 Priority Based
Scheduler (SCTP_SS_RR).

Works by maintaining a list of enqueued streams and tracking the last
one used to send data. When the datamsg is done, it switches to the next
stream.

637784ade2 sctp: introduce priority based stream scheduler
This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.4 Priority Based
Scheduler (SCTP_SS_PRIO).

It works by having a struct sctp_stream_priority for each priority
configured. This struct is then enlisted on a queue ordered per priority
if, and only if, there is a stream with data queued, so that dequeueing
is very straightforward: either finish current datamsg or simply dequeue
from the highest priority queued, which is the next stream pointed, and
that's it.

If there are multiple streams assigned with the same priority and with
data queued, it will do round robin amongst them while respecting
datamsgs boundaries (when not using idata chunks), to be reasonably
fair.

We intentionally don't maintain a list of priorities nor a list of all
streams with the same priority to save memory. The first would mean at
least 2 other pointers per priority (which, for 1000 priorities, that
can mean 16kB) and the second would also mean 2 other pointers but per
stream. As SCTP supports up to 65535 streams on a given asoc, that's
1MB. This impacts when giving a priority to some stream, as we have to
find out if the new priority is already being used and if we can free
the old one, and also when tearing down.

The new fields in struct sctp_stream_out_ext and sctp_stream are added
under a union because that memory is to be shared with other schedulers.

5bbbbe32a4 sctp: introduce stream scheduler foundations
This patch introduces the hooks necessary to do stream scheduling, as
per RFC Draft ndata.  It also introduces the first scheduler, which is
what we do today but now factored out: first come first served (FCFS).

With stream scheduling now we have to track which chunk was enqueued on
which stream and be able to select another other than the in front of
the main outqueue. So we introduce a list on sctp_stream_out_ext
structure for this purpose.

We reuse sctp_chunk->transmitted_list space for the list above, as the
chunk cannot belong to the two lists at the same time. By using the
union in there, we can have distinct names for these moments.

sctp_sched_ops are the operations expected to be implemented by each
scheduler. The dequeueing is a bit particular to this implementation but
it is to match how we dequeue packets today. We first dequeue and then
check if it fits the packet and if not, we requeue it at head. Thus why
we don't have a peek operation but have dequeue_done instead, which is
called once the chunk can be safely considered as transmitted.

The check removed from sctp_outq_flush is now performed by
sctp_stream_outq_migrate, which is only called during assoc setup.
(sctp_sendmsg() also checks for it)

The only operation that is foreseen but not yet added here is a way to
signalize that a new packet is starting or that the packet is done, for
round robin scheduler per packet, but is intentionally left to the
patch that actually implements it.

Support for I-DATA chunks, also described in this RFC, with user message
interleaving is straightforward as it just requires the schedulers to
probe for the feature and ignore datamsg boundaries when dequeueing.

90caccdd8c bpf: fix bpf_tail_call() x64 JIT
- bpf prog_array just like all other types of bpf array accepts 32-bit index.
  Clarify that in the comment.
- fix x64 JIT of bpf_tail_call which was incorrectly loading 8 instead of 4 bytes
- tighten corresponding check in the interpreter to stay consistent

The JIT bug can be triggered after introduction of BPF_F_NUMA_NODE flag
in commit 96eabe7a40 in 4.14. Before that the map_flags would stay zero and
though JIT code is wrong it will check bounds correctly.
Hence two fixes tags. All other JITs don't have this problem.

503c1fb98b cfg80211/nl80211: add a port authorized event
Add an event that indicates that a connection is authorized
(i.e. the 4 way handshake was performed by the driver). This event
should be sent by the driver after sending a connect/roamed event.

This is useful for networks that require 802.1X authentication.
In cases that the driver supports 4 way handshake offload, but the
802.1X authentication is managed by user space, the driver needs to
inform user space right after the 802.11 association was completed
so user space can initialize its 802.1X state machine etc.
However, it is also possible that the AP will choose to skip the
802.1X authentication (e.g. when PMKSA caching is used) and proceed
with the 4 way handshake immediately. In this case the driver needs
to inform user space that 802.1X authentication is no longer required
(e.g. to prevent user space from disconnecting since it did not get
any EAPOLs from the AP).

This is also useful for roaming, in which case it is possible that
the driver used the Fast Transition protocol so 802.1X is not
required.

Since there will now be a dedicated notification indicating that the
connection is authorized, the authorized flag can be removed from the
roamed event. Drivers can send the new port authorized event right
after sending the roamed event to indicate the new AP is already
authorized. This therefore reserves the old PORT_AUTHORIZED attribute.

84e14fe353 net-ipv6: add support for sockopt(SOL_IPV6, IPV6_FREEBIND)
So far we've been relying on sockopt(SOL_IP, IP_FREEBIND) being usable
even on IPv6 sockets.

However, it turns out it is perfectly reasonable to want to set freebind
on an AF_INET6 SOCK_RAW socket - but there is no way to set any SOL_IP
socket option on such a socket (they're all blindly errored out).

One use case for this is to allow spoofing src ip on a raw socket
via sendmsg cmsg.

Tested:
  built, and booted
  # python
  >>> import socket
  >>> SOL_IP = socket.SOL_IP
  >>> SOL_IPV6 = socket.IPPROTO_IPV6
  >>> IP_FREEBIND = 15
  >>> IPV6_FREEBIND = 78
  >>> s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET6, socket.SOCK_DGRAM, 0)
  >>> s.getsockopt(SOL_IP, IP_FREEBIND)
  0
  >>> s.getsockopt(SOL_IPV6, IPV6_FREEBIND)
  0
  >>> s.setsockopt(SOL_IPV6, IPV6_FREEBIND, 1)

cb4d2b3f03 bpf: Add name, load_time, uid and map_ids to bpf_prog_info
The patch adds name and load_time to struct bpf_prog_aux.  They
are also exported to bpf_prog_info.

The bpf_prog's name is passed by userspace during BPF_PROG_LOAD.
The kernel only stores the first (BPF_PROG_NAME_LEN - 1) bytes
and the name stored in the kernel is always \0 terminated.

The kernel will reject name that contains characters other than
isalnum() and '_'.  It will also reject name that is not null
terminated.

The existing 'user->uid' of the bpf_prog_aux is also exported to
the bpf_prog_info as created_by_uid.

The existing 'used_maps' of the bpf_prog_aux is exported to
the newly added members 'nr_map_ids' and 'map_ids' of
the bpf_prog_info.  On the input, nr_map_ids tells how
big the userspace's map_ids buffer is.  On the output,
nr_map_ids tells the exact user_map_cnt and it will only
copy up to the userspace's map_ids buffer is allowed.

5af48b59f3 net: bridge: add per-port group_fwd_mask with less restrictions
We need to be able to transparently forward most link-local frames via
tunnels (e.g. vxlan, qinq). Currently the bridge's group_fwd_mask has a
mask which restricts the forwarding of STP and LACP, but we need to be able
to forward these over tunnels and control that forwarding on a per-port
basis thus add a new per-port group_fwd_mask option which only disallows
mac pause frames to be forwarded (they're always dropped anyway).
The patch does not change the current default situation - all of the others
are still restricted unless configured for forwarding.
We have successfully tested this patch with LACP and STP forwarding over
VxLAN and qinq tunnels.

de8f3a83b0 bpf: add meta pointer for direct access
This work enables generic transfer of metadata from XDP into skb. The
basic idea is that we can make use of the fact that the resulting skb
must be linear and already comes with a larger headroom for supporting
bpf_xdp_adjust_head(), which mangles xdp->data. Here, we base our work
on a similar principle and introduce a small helper bpf_xdp_adjust_meta()
for adjusting a new pointer called xdp->data_meta. Thus, the packet has
a flexible and programmable room for meta data, followed by the actual
packet data. struct xdp_buff is therefore laid out that we first point
to data_hard_start, then data_meta directly prepended to data followed
by data_end marking the end of packet. bpf_xdp_adjust_head() takes into
account whether we have meta data already prepended and if so, memmove()s
this along with the given offset provided there's enough room.

xdp->data_meta is optional and programs are not required to use it. The
rationale is that when we process the packet in XDP (e.g. as DoS filter),
we can push further meta data along with it for the XDP_PASS case, and
give the guarantee that a clsact ingress BPF program on the same device
can pick this up for further post-processing. Since we work with skb
there, we can also set skb->mark, skb->priority or other skb meta data
out of BPF, thus having this scratch space generic and programmable
allows for more flexibility than defining a direct 1:1 transfer of
potentially new XDP members into skb (it's also more efficient as we
don't need to initialize/handle each of such new members). The facility
also works together with GRO aggregation. The scratch space at the head
of the packet can be multiple of 4 byte up to 32 byte large. Drivers not
yet supporting xdp->data_meta can simply be set up with xdp->data_meta
as xdp->data + 1 as bpf_xdp_adjust_meta() will detect this and bail out,
such that the subsequent match against xdp->data for later access is
guaranteed to fail.

The verifier treats xdp->data_meta/xdp->data the same way as we treat
xdp->data/xdp->data_end pointer comparisons. The requirement for doing
the compare against xdp->data is that it hasn't been modified from it's
original address we got from ctx access. It may have a range marking
already from prior successful xdp->data/xdp->data_end pointer comparisons
though.

90e33d4594 tun: enable napi_gro_frags() for TUN/TAP driver
Add a TUN/TAP receive mode that exercises the napi_gro_frags()
interface. This mode is available only in TAP mode, as the interface
expects packets with Ethernet headers.

Furthermore, packets follow the layout of the iovec_iter that was
received. The first iovec is the linear data, and every one after the
first is a fragment. If there are more fragments than the max number,
drop the packet. Additionally, invoke eth_get_headlen() to exercise flow
dissector code and to verify that the header resides in the linear data.

The napi_gro_frags() mode requires setting the IFF_NAPI_FRAGS option.
This is imposed because this mode is intended for testing via tools like
syzkaller and packetdrill, and the increased flexibility it provides can
introduce security vulnerabilities. This flag is accepted only if the
device is in TAP mode and has the IFF_NAPI flag set as well. This is
done because both of these are explicit requirements for correct
operation in this mode.

The new path was evaluated with a benchmark with the following setup:
Open two tap devices and a receiver thread that reads in a loop for
each device. Start one sender thread and pin all threads to different
CPUs. Send 1M minimum UDP packets to each device and measure sending
time for each of the sending methods:
	napi_gro_receive():	4.90s

62e082430e dm ioctl: fix alignment of event number in the device list
The size of struct dm_name_list is different on 32-bit and 64-bit
kernels (so "(nl + 1)" differs between 32-bit and 64-bit kernels).

This mismatch caused some harmless difference in padding when using 32-bit
or 64-bit kernel. Commit 23d70c5e52 ("dm ioctl: report event number in
DM_LIST_DEVICES") added reporting event number in the output of
DM_LIST_DEVICES_CMD. This difference in padding makes it impossible for
userspace to determine the location of the event number (the location
would be different when running on 32-bit and 64-bit kernels).

Fix the padding by using offsetof(struct dm_name_list, name) instead of
sizeof(struct dm_name_list) to determine the location of entries.

Also, the ioctl version number is incremented to 37 so that userspace
can use the version number to determine that the event number is present
and correctly located.

In addition, a global event is now raised when a DM device is created,
removed, renamed or when table is swapped, so that the user can monitor
for device changes.

Add support for two new low-level events: PIN_HPD_LOW and PIN_HPD_HIGH.

This is specifically meant for use with the upcoming cec-gpio driver
and makes it possible to trace when the HPD pin changes. Some HDMI
sinks do strange things with the HPD and this makes it easy to debug
this.

Note that this also moves the initialization of a devnode mutex and
list to the allocate_adapter function: if the HPD is high, then as
soon as the HPD interrupt is created an interrupt occurs and
cec_queue_pin_hpd_event() is called which requires that the devnode
mutex and list are initialized.

19cab88726 net: ethtool: Add back transceiver type
Commit 3f1ac7a700 ("net: ethtool: add new ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS API")
deprecated the ethtool_cmd::transceiver field, which was fine in
premise, except that the PHY library was actually using it to report the
type of transceiver: internal or external.

Use the first word of the reserved field to put this __u8 transceiver
field back in. It is made read-only, and we don't expect the
ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS API to be doing anything with this anyway, so this
is mostly for the legacy path where we do:

ethtool_get_settings()
-> dev->ethtool_ops->get_link_ksettings()
   -> convert_link_ksettings_to_legacy_settings()

to have no information loss compared to the legacy get_settings API.

65026002d6 nl80211: add an option to allow MFP without requiring it
The user space can now allow the kernel to associate to an AP that
requires MFP or that doesn't have MFP enabled in the same
NL80211_CMD_CONNECT command, by using a new NL80211_MFP_OPTIONAL flag.
The driver / firmware will decide whether to use it or not.

Include a feature bit to advertise support for NL80211_MFP_OPTIONAL.
This allows new user space to run on old kernels and know that it
cannot use the new attribute if it isn't supported.

bd7a3fe770 USB: fix out-of-bounds in usb_set_configuration
Andrey Konovalov reported a possible out-of-bounds problem for a USB interface
association descriptor.  He writes:
	It seems there's no proper size check of a USB_DT_INTERFACE_ASSOCIATION
	descriptor. It's only checked that the size is >= 2 in
	usb_parse_configuration(), so find_iad() might do out-of-bounds access
	to intf_assoc->bInterfaceCount.

And he's right, we don't check for crazy descriptors of this type very well, so
resolve this problem.  Yet another issue found by syzkaller...

e7cdb60fd2 Merge branch 'zstd-minimal' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mason/linux-btrfs
Pull zstd support from Chris Mason:
 "Nick Terrell's patch series to add zstd support to the kernel has been
  floating around for a while. After talking with Dave Sterba, Herbert
  and Phillip, we decided to send the whole thing in as one pull
  request.

  zstd is a big win in speed over zlib and in compression ratio over
  lzo, and the compression team here at FB has gotten great results
  using it in production. Nick will continue to update the kernel side
  with new improvements from the open source zstd userland code.

  Nick has a number of benchmarks for the main zstd code in his lib/zstd
  commit:

      I ran the benchmarks on a Ubuntu 14.04 VM with 2 cores and 4 GiB
      of RAM. The VM is running on a MacBook Pro with a 3.1 GHz Intel
      Core i7 processor, 16 GB of RAM, and a SSD. I benchmarked using
      `silesia.tar` [3], which is 211,988,480 B large. Run the following
      commands for the benchmark:

        sudo modprobe zstd_compress_test
        sudo mknod zstd_compress_test c 245 0
        sudo cp silesia.tar zstd_compress_test

      The time is reported by the time of the userland `cp`.
      The MB/s is computed with

        1,536,217,008 B / time(buffer size, hash)

      which includes the time to copy from userland.
      The Adjusted MB/s is computed with

        1,536,217,088 B / (time(buffer size, hash) - time(buffer size, none)).

      The memory reported is the amount of memory the compressor
      requests.

        | Method   | Size (B) | Time (s) | Ratio | MB/s    | Adj MB/s | Mem (MB) |
        |----------|----------|----------|-------|---------|----------|----------|

      I benchmarked zstd decompression using the same method on the same
      machine. The benchmark file is located in the upstream zstd repo
      under `contrib/linux-kernel/zstd_decompress_test.c` [4]. The
      memory reported is the amount of memory required to decompress
      data compressed with the given compression level. If you know the
      maximum size of your input, you can reduce the memory usage of
      decompression irrespective of the compression level.

dd198ce714 Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
 "Life has been busy and I have not gotten half as much done this round
  as I would have liked. I delayed it so that a minor conflict
  resolution with the mips tree could spend a little time in linux-next
  before I sent this pull request.

  This includes two long delayed user namespace changes from Kirill
  Tkhai. It also includes a very useful change from Serge Hallyn that
  allows the security capability attribute to be used inside of user
  namespaces. The practical effect of this is people can now untar
  tarballs and install rpms in user namespaces. It had been suggested to
  generalize this and encode some of the namespace information
  information in the xattr name. Upon close inspection that makes the
  things that should be hard easy and the things that should be easy
  more expensive.

  Then there is my bugfix/cleanup for signal injection that removes the
  magic encoding of the siginfo union member from the kernel internal
  si_code. The mips folks reported the case where I had used FPE_FIXME
  me is impossible so I have remove FPE_FIXME from mips, while at the
  same time including a return statement in that case to keep gcc from
  complaining about unitialized variables.

  I almost finished the work to get make copy_siginfo_to_user a trivial
  copy to user. The code is available at:

     git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace.git neuter-copy_siginfo_to_user-v3

  But I did not have time/energy to get the code posted and reviewed
  before the merge window opened.

  I was able to see that the security excuse for just copying fields
  that we know are initialized doesn't work in practice there are buggy
  initializations that don't initialize the proper fields in siginfo. So
  we still sometimes copy unitialized data to userspace"

9beb8bedb0 bpf: make error reporting in bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action more clear
Differ between illegal XDP action code and just driver
unsupported one to provide better feedback when we throw
a one-time warning here. Reason is that with 814abfabef
("xdp: add bpf_redirect helper function") not all drivers
support the new XDP return code yet and thus they will
fall into their 'default' case when checking for return
codes after program return, which then triggers a
bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action() stating that the return
code is illegal, but from XDP perspective it's not.

I decided not to place something like a XDP_ACT_MAX define
into uapi i) given we don't have this either for all other
program types, ii) future action codes could have further
encoding there, which would render such define unsuitable
and we wouldn't be able to rip it out again, and iii) we
rarely add new action codes.

1f28c5d055 autofs: remove unused AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT/INDIRECT
These are not used by either kernel or userspace, although
AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_DIRECT once seems to have been used by userspace in
around 2006-2008, which was technically just an alias of the existing
ioctl AUTOFS_IOC_EXPIRE_MULTI.

ioctls for autofs are already complicated enough that they could be
removed unless these are staying here to be able to compile userspace code
of certain period of time from a decade ago.

Edit: raven@themaw.net
Yes, this is indeed very old and anything that still uses must
be updated becuase it will be using broken functionality.
End edit: raven@themaw.net

Pull media updates from Mauro Carvalho Chehab:
 "Brazil's Independence Day pull request :-)

  This is one of the biggest media pull requests, with 625 patches
  affecting almost all parts of media (RC, DVB, V4L2, CEC, docs).

  This contains:

   - A lot of new drivers:
     * DVB frontends: mxl5xx, stv0910, stv6111;
     * camera flash: as3645a led driver;
     * HDMI receiver: adv748X;
     * camera sensor: Omnivision 6650 5M driver (ov6650);
     * HDMI CEC: ao-cec meson driver;
     * V4L2: Qualcom camss driver;
     * Remote controller: gpio-ir-tx, pwm-ir-tx and zx-irdec drivers.

   - The DDbridge DVB driver got a massive update, with makes it in sync
     with modern hardware from that vendor;

   - There's an important milestone on this series: the DVB
     documentation was written in 2003, but only started to be updated
     in 2007. It also used to contain several gaps from the time it was
     kept out of tree, mentioning error codes and device nodes that
     never existed upstream. On this series, it received a massive
     update: all non-deprecated digital TV APIs are now in sync with the
     current implementation;

   - Some DVB APIs that aren't used by any upstream driver got removed;

   - Other parts of the media documentation algo got updated, fixing
     some bugs on its PDF output and making it compatible with Sphinx
     version 1.6.

     As the number of hacks required to build PDF output reduced, I hope
     we'll have less troubles as newer versions of our documentation
     toolchain are released (famous last words);

   - As usual, lots of driver cleanups and improvements"

749df87bd7 mm/shmem: add hugetlbfs support to memfd_create()
This patch came out of discussions in this e-mail thread:
  http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1499357846-7481-1-git-send-email-mike.kravetz%40oracle.com

The Oracle JVM team is developing a new garbage collection model.  This
new model requires multiple mappings of the same anonymous memory.  One
straight forward way to accomplish this is with memfd_create.  They can
use the returned fd to create multiple mappings of the same memory.

The JVM today has an option to use (static hugetlb) huge pages.  If this
option is specified, they would like to use the same garbage collection
model requiring multiple mappings to the same memory.  Using hugetlbfs,
it is possible to explicitly mount a filesystem and specify file paths
in order to get an fd that can be used for multiple mappings.  However,
this introduces additional system admin work and coordination.

Ideally they would like to get a hugetlbfs fd without requiring explicit
mounting of a filesystem.  Today, mmap and shmget can make use of
hugetlbfs without explicitly mounting a filesystem.  The patch adds this
functionality to memfd_create.

Add a new flag MFD_HUGETLB to memfd_create() that will specify the file
to be created resides in the hugetlbfs filesystem.  This is the generic
hugetlbfs filesystem not associated with any specific mount point.  As
with other system calls that request hugetlbfs backed pages, there is
the ability to encode huge page size in the flag arguments.

hugetlbfs does not support sealing operations, therefore specifying
MFD_ALLOW_SEALING with MFD_HUGETLB will result in EINVAL.

Of course, the memfd_man page would need updating if this type of
functionality moves forward.

migration per vCPU.  Side observer or application itself will be
informed about proper task's sleep during userfaultfd processing.

Process's thread id is being provided when user requeste it by setting
UFFD_FEATURE_THREAD_ID bit into uffdio_api.features.

2d6d6f5a09 mm: userfaultfd: add feature to request for a signal delivery
In some cases, userfaultfd mechanism should just deliver a SIGBUS signal
to the faulting process, instead of the page-fault event.  Dealing with
page-fault event using a monitor thread can be an overhead in these
cases.  For example applications like the database could use the
signaling mechanism for robustness purpose.

Database uses hugetlbfs for performance reason.  Files on hugetlbfs
filesystem are created and huge pages allocated using fallocate() API.
Pages are deallocated/freed using fallocate() hole punching support.
These files are mmapped and accessed by many processes as shared memory.
The database keeps track of which offsets in the hugetlbfs file have
pages allocated.

Any access to mapped address over holes in the file, which can occur due
to bugs in the application, is considered invalid and expect the process
to simply receive a SIGBUS.  However, currently when a hole in the file
is accessed via the mapped address, kernel/mm attempts to automatically
allocate a page at page fault time, resulting in implicitly filling the
hole in the file.  This may not be the desired behavior for applications
like the database that want to explicitly manage page allocations of
hugetlbfs files.

Using userfaultfd mechanism with this support to get a signal, database
application can prevent pages from being allocated implicitly when
processes access mapped address over holes in the file.

This patch adds UFFD_FEATURE_SIGBUS feature to userfaultfd mechnism to
request for a SIGBUS signal.

See following for previous discussion about the database requirement
leading to this proposal as suggested by Andrea.
