When dev_set_promiscuity(1) succeeds but dev_set_allmulti(1) fails,
dev_set_promiscuity(-1) should be done before going to the err path.
Otherwise, dev-&gt;promiscuity will leak.

Beniamino found a crash when adding vlan as slave of bond which is also
the parent link:

  ip link add bond1 type bond
  ip link set bond1 up
  ip link add link bond1 vlan1 type vlan id 80
  ip link set vlan1 master bond1

The call trace is as below:

  [&lt;ffffffffa83cc396&gt;] sock_sendmsg+0xb6/0xf0

This is actually a dead lock caused by sync slave hwaddr from master when
the master is the slave's 'slave'. This dead loop check is actually done
by netdev_master_upper_dev_link. However, Commit 1f718f0f4f97 ("bonding:
populate neighbour's private on enslave") moved it after dev_mc_sync.

This patch is to fix it by moving dev_mc_sync after master_upper_dev_link,
so that this loop check would be earlier than dev_mc_sync. It also moves
if (mode == BOND_MODE_8023AD) into if (!bond_uses_primary) clause as an
improvement.

Note team driver also has this issue, I will fix it in another patch.

vlan_vids_add_by_dev is called right after dev hwaddr sync, so on
the err path it should unsync dev hwaddr. Otherwise, the slave
dev's hwaddr will never be unsync when this err happens.

nla_get_u64 to extract the value here, to eliminate a sparse

 "The main changes in this cycle are:

     tracking (automatically part of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y), this time
     with better performance and fewer false positives. (Byungchul Park)

   - Introduce lockdep_assert_irqs_enabled()/disabled() and convert
     open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
     method. (Kirill Tkhai)

   - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
     READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
     driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)

   - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
     strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
     being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
     READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)

   - Various micro-optimizations:

        - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
        - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
        - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

   - ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen

     open-coded equivalents to lockdep variants. (Frederic Weisbecker)

   - Add down_read_killable() and use it in the VFS's iterate_dir()
     method. (Kirill Tkhai)

   - Convert remaining uses of ACCESS_ONCE() to
     READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE(). Most of the conversion was Coccinelle
     driven. (Mark Rutland, Paul E. McKenney)

   - Get rid of lockless_dereference(), by strengthening Alpha atomics,
     strengthening READ_ONCE() with smp_read_barrier_depends() and thus
     being able to convert users of lockless_dereference() to
     READ_ONCE(). (Will Deacon)

   - Various micro-optimizations:

        - better PV qspinlocks (Waiman Long),
        - better x86 barriers (Michael S. Tsirkin)
        - better x86 refcounts (Kees Cook)

   - ... plus other fixes and enhancements. (Borislav Petkov, Juergen
     Gross, Miguel Bernal Marin)"

Simple cases of overlapping changes in the packet scheduler.

Must easier to resolve this time.

Which probably means that I screwed it up somehow.

<title>bonding: fix slave stuck in BOND_LINK_FAIL state</title>

<id>055db6957e4735b16cd2fa94a5bbfb754c9b8023</id>
<content type='text'>
The bonding miimon logic has a flaw, in that a failure of the
rtnl_trylock can cause a slave to become permanently stuck in
BOND_LINK_FAIL state.

	The sequence of events to cause this is as follows:

	1) bond_miimon_inspect finds that a slave's link is down, and so
calls bond_propose_link_state, setting slave-&gt;new_link_state to
BOND_LINK_FAIL, then sets slave-&gt;new_link to BOND_LINK_DOWN and returns
non-zero.

	2) In bond_mii_monitor, the rtnl_trylock fails, and the timer is
rescheduled.  No change is committed.

	3) bond_miimon_inspect is called again, but this time the slave
from step 1 has recovered.  slave-&gt;new_link is reset to NOCHANGE, and, as
slave-&gt;link was never changed, the switch enters the BOND_LINK_UP case,
and does nothing.  The pending BOND_LINK_FAIL state from step 1 remains
pending, as new_link_state is not reset.

	4) The state from step 3 persists until another slave changes link
state and causes bond_miimon_inspect to return non-zero.  At this point,
the BOND_LINK_FAIL state change on the slave from steps 1-3 is committed,
and the slave will remain stuck in BOND_LINK_FAIL state even though it
is actually link up.

	The remedy for this is to initialize new_link_state on each entry
to bond_miimon_inspect, as is already done with new_link.

<title>bonding: discard lowest hash bit for 802.3ad layer3+4</title>

<id>b5f862180d7011d9575d0499fa37f0f25b423b12</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit 07f4c90062f8 ("tcp/dccp: try to not exhaust ip_local_port_range
in connect()"), we will try to use even ports for connect(). Then if an
application (seen clearly with iperf) opens multiple streams to the same
destination IP and port, each stream will be given an even source port.

So the bonding driver's simple xmit_hash_policy based on layer3+4 addressing
will always hash all these streams to the same interface. And the total
throughput will limited to a single slave.

Change the tcp code will impact the whole tcp behavior, only for bonding
usage. Paolo Abeni suggested fix this by changing the bonding code only,
which should be more reasonable, and less impact.

Fix this by discarding the lowest hash bit because it contains little entropy.
After the fix we can re-balance between slaves.
