The threshold for OOM protection is too small for systems with large
number of CPUs. Applications report ENOBUFs on connect() every 10
minutes.
The problem is that the variable net->xfrm.flow_cache_gc_count is a
global counter while the variable fc->high_watermark is a per-CPU
constant. Take the number of CPUs into account as well.

This is the same fix than commit a5d0dc810abf ("vti: flush x-netns xfrm

This patch fixes a refcnt problem when a x-netns vti6 interface is removed:

The driver has a check to ensure that NCSI FW section is updated only

The driver gets the pf_num for Skyhawk and Lancer using
GET_FUNC_CONFIG FW command. But since that command is not
supported in BEx, we need to get it from some other command.
Otherwise TPE recovery would fail since all NIC PFs would
end up with a func num of 0. There's a pci function number
field in the response of GET_CNTL_ATTRIBUTES command that
can be read to get the same info for BEx adapters.

In the case when a frontend only negotiates a single queue with xen-
netback it is possible for a skbuff with a s/w hash to result in a
hash extra_info segment being sent to the frontend even when no hash
algorithm has been configured. (The ndo_select_queue() entry point makes
sure the hash is not set if no algorithm is configured, but this entry
point is not called when there is only a single queue). This can result
in a frontend that is unable to handle extra_info segments being given
such a segment, causing it to crash.
This patch fixes the problem by clearing the hash in ndo_start_xmit()
instead, which is clearly guaranteed to be called irrespective of the
number of queues.

Roundrobin runner of team driver uses 'unsigned int' variable to count
the number of sent_packets. Later it is passed to a subroutine
team_num_to_port_index(struct team *team, int num) as 'num' and when
we reach MAXINT (2**31-1), 'num' becomes negative.
This leads to using incorrect hash-bucket for port lookup
and as a result, packets are dropped. The fix consists of changing
'int num' to 'unsigned int num'. Testing of a fixed kernel shows that
there is no packet drop anymore.

rxrpc: Fixes
This set of patches contains a bunch of fixes:
(1) Fix an oops on incoming call to a local endpoint without a bound
service.
(2) Only ping for a lost reply in a client call (this is inapplicable to
service calls).
(3) Fix maybe uninitialised variable warnings in the ACK/ABORT sending
function by splitting it.
(4) Fix loss of PING RESPONSE ACKs due to them being subsumed by PING ACK
generation.
(5) OpenAFS improperly terminates calls it makes as a client under some
circumstances by not fully hard-ACK'ing the last DATA packets. This
is alleviated by a new call appearing on the same channel implicitly
completing the previous call on that channel. Handle this implicit
completion.
(6) Properly handle expiry of service calls due to the aforementioned
improper termination with no follow up call to implicitly complete it:
(a) The call's background processor needs to be queued to complete the
call, send an abort and notify the socket.
(b) The call's background processor needs to notify the socket (or the
kernel service) when it has completed the call.
(c) A negative error code must thence be returned to the kernel
service so that it knows the call died.
(d) The AFS filesystem must detect the fatal error and end the call.
(7) Must produce a DELAY ACK when the actual service operation takes a
while to process and must cancel the ACK when the reply is ready.
(8) Don't request an ACK on the last DATA packet of the Tx phase as this
confuses OpenAFS.

Since linux-3.15, netlink_dump() can use up to 16384 bytes skb
allocations.
Due to struct skb_shared_info ~320 bytes overhead, we end up using
order-3 (on x86) page allocations, that might trigger direct reclaim and
add stress.
The intent was really to attempt a large allocation but immediately
fallback to a smaller one (order-1 on x86) in case of memory stress.
On recent kernels (linux-4.4), we can remove __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM to
meet the goal. Old kernels would need to remove __GFP_WAIT
While we are at it, since we do an order-3 allocation, allow to use
all the allocated bytes instead of 16384 to reduce syscalls during
large dumps.
iproute2 already uses 32KB recvmsg() buffer sizes.
Alexei provided an initial patch downsizing to SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(16384)

If a socket has FANOUT sockopt set, a new proto_hook is registered
as part of fanout_add(). When processing a NETDEV_UNREGISTER event in
af_packet, __fanout_unlink is called for all sockets, but prot_hook which was

The KSZ9031 skew registers contain an offset, the chip's default value
is "neutral" which does not add any skew. Programming a 0 into a skew
property will actually set it the maximal negative adjustment and not
to a neutral position as one would expect.
Explain this situation in the devicetree binding documentation and list
the settings that the chip considers neutral.
Changing the implementation to accept negative values would have been
a better solution, but would break existing configurations.

As far as I am aware only very old Windows network frontends make use of
this style of passing GSO packets from backend to frontend. These
frontends can easily be replaced by the freely available Xen Project
Windows PV network frontend, which uses the 'default' mechanism for
passing GSO packets, which is also used by all Linux frontends.
NOTE: Removal of this feature will not cause breakage in old Windows
frontends. They simply will no longer receive GSO packets - the
packets instead being fragmented in the backend.

"This release cycle is rather small. Just a few fixes to tracing.
The big change is the addition of the hwlat tracer. It not only
detects SMIs, but also other latency that's caused by the hardware. I
have detected some latency from large boxes having bus contention"

Pull namespace updates from Eric Biederman:
"This set of changes is a number of smaller things that have been
overlooked in other development cycles focused on more fundamental
change. The devpts changes are small things that were a distraction
until we managed to kill off DEVPTS_MULTPLE_INSTANCES. There is an
trivial regression fix to autofs for the unprivileged mount changes
that went in last cycle. A pair of ioctls has been added by Andrey
Vagin making it is possible to discover the relationships between
namespaces when referring to them through file descriptors.
The big user visible change is starting to add simple resource limits
to catch programs that misbehave. With namespaces in general and user
namespaces in particular allowing users to use more kinds of
resources, it has become important to have something to limit errant
programs. Because the purpose of these limits is to catch errant
programs the code needs to be inexpensive to use as it always on, and
the default limits need to be high enough that well behaved programs
on well behaved systems don't encounter them.
To this end, after some review I have implemented per user per user
namespace limits, and use them to limit the number of namespaces. The
limits being per user mean that one user can not exhause the limits of
another user. The limits being per user namespace allow contexts where
the limit is 0 and security conscious folks can remove from their
threat anlysis the code used to manage namespaces (as they have
historically done as it root only). At the same time the limits being
per user namespace allow other parts of the system to use namespaces.
Namespaces are increasingly being used in application sand boxing
scenarios so an all or nothing disable for the entire system for the
security conscious folks makes increasing use of these sandboxes
impossible.
There is also added a limit on the maximum number of mounts present in
a single mount namespace. It is nontrivial to guess what a reasonable
system wide limit on the number of mount structure in the kernel would
be, especially as it various based on how a system is using
containers. A limit on the number of mounts in a mount namespace
however is much easier to understand and set. In most cases in
practice only about 1000 mounts are used. Given that some autofs
scenarious have the potential to be 30,000 to 50,000 mounts I have set
the default limit for the number of mounts at 100,000 which is well
above every known set of users but low enough that the mount hash
tables don't degrade unreaonsably.
These limits are a start. I expect this estabilishes a pattern that
other limits for resources that namespaces use will follow. There has
been interest in making inotify event limits per user per user
namespace as well as interest expressed in making details about what
is going on in the kernel more visible"
