For the iwlwifi fix, Emmanuel says:
"A critical bug has been reported on all NICs supported by iwldvm.
iwlwifi would simply panic upon interface up This patch fixes this. The
offending code is by me and is present in wireless-next.git and hence in

Andreas Fenkart corrects a WoWLAN problem with mwifiex.
Roman Dubtsov adds a device ID to rt2800usb.
Sujith Manoharan re-enables a mistakenly commented-out line of code in
ath9k, and also fixes and interrupt mitigation issue for that driver.
ZHAO Gang fixes an incorrect assignment (reverse/wrong API call) in b43.

sfc: Use the correct maximum TX DMA ring size for SFC9100
As part of a workaround for a hardware erratum in the SFC9100 family
(SF bug 35388), the TX_DESC_UPD_DWORD register address is also used
for communicating with the event block, and only descriptor pointer
values < 2048 are valid.
If the TX DMA ring size is increased to 4096 descriptors (which the
firmware still allows) then we may write a descriptor pointer
value >= 2048, which has entirely different and undesirable effects!
Limit the TX DMA ring size correctly when this workaround is in

When we have multiple devices attempting to sync the same address

tracks how many time a given address has been succefully synced.
This way, we know that if the 'sync_cnt' passed in is 0, we should
sync this address.

It tracks how many time a given address has been added via a

incremented, and for ever 'unsync', the counter is decremented.
This makes sure that the address will be properly removed from
the the lower device when all the upper devices have removed it.

1d3ee88ae0d6)
Introduced yet another device specific way to access slave information
over rtnetlink. There is one already there for bridge.
This patch introduces generic way to do this, for getting and setting
info as well by extending link_ops. Later on, this new interface will
be used for bridge ports as well.

tuntap: Fix for a race in accessing numqueues
A patch for fixing a race between queue selection and changing queues
was introduced in commit
92bb73ea2("tuntap: fix a possible race between
queue selection and changing queues").
The fix was to prevent the driver from re-reading the tun->numqueues
more than once within tun_select_queue() using ACCESS_ONCE().
We have been experiancing 'Divide-by-zero' errors in tun_net_xmit()
since we moved from 3.6 to 3.10, and believe that they come from a
simular source where the value of tun->numqueues changes to zero
between the first and a subsequent read of tun->numqueues.
The fix is a simular use of ACCESS_ONCE(), as well as a multiply
instead of a divide in the if statement.

tcp: metrics: Fix rcu-race when deleting multiple entries
In
bbf852b96ebdc6d1 I introduced the tmlist, which allows to delete
multiple entries from the cache that match a specified destination if no
source-IP is specified.
However, as the cache is an RCU-list, we should not create this tmlist, as
it will change the tcpm_next pointer of the element that will be deleted
and so a thread iterating over the cache's entries while holding the
RCU-lock might get "redirected" to this tmlist.
This patch fixes this, by reverting back to the old behavior prior to
bbf852b96ebdc6d1, which means that we simply change the tcpm_next
pointer of the previous element (pp) to jump over the one we are
deleting.
The difference is that we call kfree_rcu() directly on the cache entry,
which allows us to delete multiple entries from the list.

2) If the slave's new name is as same as bond primary, set the slave

net: vxlan: convert to act as a pernet subsystem
As per suggestion from Eric W. Biederman, vxlan should be using
{un,}register_pernet_subsys() instead of {un,}register_pernet_device()
to ensure the vxlan_net structure is initialized before and cleaned
up after all network devices in a given network namespace i.e. when
dealing with network notifiers. This is similarly handeled already in
commit
91e2ff3528ac ("net: Teach vlans to cleanup as a pernet subsystem")
and, thus, improves upon
fd27e0d44a89 ("net: vxlan: do not use vxlan_net
before checking event type"). Just as in
91e2ff3528ac, we do not need
to explicitly handle deletion of vxlan devices as network namespace
exit calls dellink on all remaining virtual devices, and
rtnl_link_unregister() calls dellink on all outstanding devices in that
network namespace, so we can entirely drop the pernet exit operation
as well. Moreover, on vxlan module exit, rcu_barrier() is called by
netns since commit
3a765edadb28 ("netns: Add an explicit rcu_barrier
to unregister_pernet_{device|subsys}"), so this may be omitted. Tested
with various scenarios and works well on my side.

Nikolay Aleksandrov says:
====================
bonding: introduce new option API
This patchset's goal is to introduce a new option API which should be used
to properly describe the bonding options with their mode dependcies and
requirements. With this patchset applied we get centralized option
manipulation, automatic RTNL acquire per option setting, automatic option
range checking, mode dependcy checking and other various flags which are
described in detail in patch 01's commit message and comments.
Also the parameter passing is changed to use a specialized structure which
is initialized to a value depending on the needs.
The main exported functions are:
__bond_opt_set() - set an option (RTNL should be acquired prior)
bond_opt_init(val|str) - init a bond_opt_value struct for value or string
parameter passing
bond_opt_tryset_rtnl() - function which tries to acquire rtnl, mainly used
for sysfs
bond_opt_parse - used to parse or check for valid values
bond_opt_get - retrieve a pointer to bond_option struct for some option
bond_opt_get_val - retrieve a pointer to a bond_opt_value struct for
some value
The same functions are used to set an option via sysfs and netlink, just
the parameter that's passed is usually initialized in a different way.
The converted options have multiple style fixes, there're some longer
lines but they looked either ugly or were strings/pr_warnings, if you
think some line would be better broken just let me know :-) there're
also a few sscanf false-positive warnings.
I decided to keep the "unsuppmodes" way of mode dep checking since it's
straight forward, if we make a more general way for checking dependencies
it'll be easy to change it.
Future plans for this work include:
- Automatic sysfs generation from the bond_opts[].
- Use of the API in bond_check_params() and thus cleaning it up (this has
actually started, I'll take care of the rest in a separate patch)
- Clean up all option-unrelated files of option definitions and functions
I've tried to leave as much documentation as possible, if there's anything
unclear please let me know. One more thing, I haven't moved all
option-related functions from bonding.h to the new bond_options.h, this
will be done in a separate patch, it's in my todo list.
This patchset has been tested by setting each converted option via sysfs
and netlink to a couple of wrong values, a couple of correct values and
some random values, also for the opts that have flags they have been
tested as well.

bonding: add infrastructure for an option API
This patch adds the necessary basic infrastructure to support
centralized and unified option manipulation API for the bonding. The new
structure bond_option will be used to describe each option with its
dependencies on modes which will be checked automatically thus removing a
lot of duplicated code. Also automatic range checking is added for
some options. Currently the option setting function requires RTNL to
be acquired prior to calling it, since many options already rely on RTNL
it seemed like the best choice to protect all against common race
conditions.
In order to add an option the following steps need to be done:
1. Add an entry BOND_OPT_<option> to bond_options.h so it gets a unique id
and a bit corresponding to the id
2. Add a bond_option entry to the bond_opts[] array in bond_options.c which
describes the option, its dependencies and its manipulation function
3. Add code to export the option through sysfs and/or as a module parameter
(the sysfs export will be made automatically in the future)
The options can have different flags set, currently the following are
supported:
BOND_OPTFLAG_NOSLAVES - require that the bond device has no slaves prior
to setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_IFDOWN - require that the bond device is down prior to
setting the option
BOND_OPTFLAG_RAWVAL - don't parse the value but return it raw for the
option to parse
There's a new value structure to describe different types of values
which can have the following flags:
BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT - marks the default option (permanent string alias
to this option is "default")
BOND_VALFLAG_MIN - the minimum value that this option can have
BOND_VALFLAG_MAX - the maximum value that this option can have
An example would be nice here, so if we have an option which can have
the values "off"(2), "special"(4, default) and supports a range, say
16 - 32, it should be defined as follows:
"off", 2,
"special", 4, BOND_VALFLAG_DEFAULT,
"rangemin", 16, BOND_VALFLAG_MIN,
"rangemax", 32, BOND_VALFLAG_MAX
So we have the valid intervals: [2, 2], [4, 4], [16, 32]
Also the valid strings: "off" = 2, "special" and "default" = 4
"rangemin" = 16, "rangemax" = 32
BOND_VALFLAG_(MIN|MAX) can be used to specify a valid range for an
option, if MIN is omitted then 0 is considered as a minimum. If an
exact match is found in the values[] table it will be returned,
otherwise the range is tried (if available).
The option parameter passing is done by using a special structure called
bond_opt_value which can take either a string or a value to parse. One
of the bond_opt_init(val|str) macros should be used depending on which
one does the user want to parse (string or value). Then a call to
__bond_opt_set should be done under RTNL.

====================
reciprocal_divide update
This patch is on top of
aee636c4809fa5 ("bpf: do not use reciprocal
divide") from Eric that sits in net tree. It will not create a merge
conflict, but it depends on this one, so we suggest, if possible, to
merge net into net-next.
We are proposing this change with only small modifications from the
v2 version, namely updating the name of trim to reciprocal_scale
(as commented on by Ben Hutchings and Eric Dumazet, thanks!).
We thought about introducing the reciprocal_divide algorithm in
parallel to the one already used by the kernel but faced organizational
issues, leading us to the conclusion that it is best to just replace
the old one: We could not come up with names for the different
implementations and also with a way to describe the differences to
guide developers which one to choose in which situation. This is
because we cannot specify the correct semantics for the version
which is currently used by the kernel. Altough it seems to not be
causing problems in the kernel, we cannot surely say so in the
case of flex_array for the future. Current usage seems ok, but
future users could run into problems.
Changelog:
v1->v2:
- changed name to prandom_u32_max in p1
- changed name to trim in p2
- reworked code in p3
v2->v3:
- p1 and p3 stays unchanged, only small update in commit
message in p3
- changed name to reciprocal_scale in p2
- fixed kernel doc format
v3->v4:
- pseduo -> pseudo (thanks to Tilman Schmidt)
v4->v5:
- fix pseduo -> pseudo for real now, sorry for the noise

reciprocal_divide: update/correction of the algorithm
Jakub Zawadzki noticed that some divisions by reciprocal_divide()
were not correct [1][2], which he could also show with BPF code
after divisions are transformed into reciprocal_value() for runtime
invariance which can be passed to reciprocal_divide() later on;
reverse in BPF dump ended up with a different, off-by-one K in
some situations.
This has been fixed by Eric Dumazet in commit
aee636c4809fa5
("bpf: do not use reciprocal divide"). This follow-up patch
improves reciprocal_value() and reciprocal_divide() to work in
all cases by using Granlund and Montgomery method, so that also
future use is safe and without any non-obvious side-effects.
Known problems with the old implementation were that division by 1
always returned 0 and some off-by-ones when the dividend and divisor
where very large. This seemed to not be problematic with its
current users, as far as we can tell. Eric Dumazet checked for
the slab usage, we cannot surely say so in the case of flex_array.
Still, in order to fix that, we propose an extension from the
original implementation from commit
6a2d7a955d8d resp. [3][4],
by using the algorithm proposed in "Division by Invariant Integers
Using Multiplication" [5], Torbjörn Granlund and Peter L.
Montgomery, that is, pseudocode for q = n/d where q, n, d is in
u32 universe:
1) Initialization:
int l = ceil(log_2 d)
uword m' = floor((1<<32)*((1<<l)-d)/d)+1
int sh_1 = min(l,1)
int sh_2 = max(l-1,0)
2) For q = n/d, all uword:
uword t = (n*m')>>32
q = (t+((n-t)>>sh_1))>>sh_2
The assembler implementation from Agner Fog [6] also helped a lot
while implementing. We have tested the implementation on x86_64,
ppc64, i686, s390x; on x86_64/haswell we're still half the latency
compared to normal divide.

random32: add prandom_u32_max and convert open coded users
Many functions have open coded a function that returns a random
number in range [0,N-1]. Under the assumption that we have a PRNG
such as taus113 with being well distributed in [0, ~0U] space,
we can implement such a function as uword t = (n*m')>>32, where
m' is a random number obtained from PRNG, n the right open interval
border and t our resulting random number, with n,m',t in u32 universe.
Lets go with Joe and simply call it prandom_u32_max(), although
technically we have an right open interval endpoint, but that we
have documented. Other users can further be migrated to the new
prandom_u32_max() function later on; for now, we need to make sure
to migrate reciprocal_divide() users for the reciprocal_divide()
follow-up fixup since their function signatures are going to change.

net/mlx4_core: Remove unnecessary validation for port number

net: filter: let bpf_tell_extensions return SKF_AD_MAX
Michal Sekletar added in commit
ea02f9411d9f ("net: introduce
SO_BPF_EXTENSIONS") a facility where user space can enquire
the BPF ancillary instruction set, which is imho a step into
the right direction for letting user space high-level to BPF
optimizers make an informed decision for possibly using these
extensions.
The original rationale was to return through a getsockopt(2)
a bitfield of which instructions are supported and which
are not, as of right now, we just return 0 to indicate a
base support for SKF_AD_PROTOCOL up to SKF_AD_PAY_OFFSET.
Limitations of this approach are that this API which we need
to maintain for a long time can only support a maximum of 32
extensions, and needs to be additionally maintained/updated
when each new extension that comes in.
I thought about this a bit more and what we can do here to
overcome this is to just return SKF_AD_MAX. Since we never
remove any extension since we cannot break user space and
always linearly increase SKF_AD_MAX on each newly added
extension, user space can make a decision on what extensions
are supported in the whole set of extensions and which aren't,
by just checking which of them from the whole set have an
offset < SKF_AD_MAX of the underlying kernel.
Since SKF_AD_MAX must be updated each time we add new ones,
we don't need to introduce an additional enum and got
maintenance for free. At some point in time when
SO_BPF_EXTENSIONS becomes ubiquitous for most kernels, then
an application can simply make use of this and easily be run
on newer or older underlying kernels without needing to be
recompiled, of course. Since that is for 3.14, it's not too
late to do this change.
