The main changes are: 1) Add AF_XDP support to libbpf. Rationale is to facilitate writing AF_XDP applications by offering higher-level APIs that hide many of the details of the AF_XDP uapi. Sample programs are converted over to this new interface as well, from Magnus. 2) Introduce a new cant_sleep() macro for annotation of functions that cannot sleep and use it in BPF_PROG_RUN() to assert that BPF programs run under preemption disabled context, from Peter. 3) Introduce per BPF prog stats in order to monitor the usage of BPF; this is controlled by kernel.bpf_stats_enabled sysctl knob where monitoring tools can make use of this to efficiently determine the average cost of programs, from Alexei. 4) Split up BPF selftest's test_progs similarly as we already did with test_verifier. This allows to further reduce merge conflicts in future and to get more structure into our quickly growing BPF selftest suite, from Stanislav. 5) Fix a bug in BTF's dedup algorithm which can cause an infinite loop in some circumstances; also various BPF doc fixes and improvements, from Andrii. 6) Various BPF sample cleanups and migration to libbpf in order to further isolate the old sample loader code (so we can get rid of it at some point), from Jakub. 7) Add a new BPF helper for BPF cgroup skb progs that allows to set ECN CE code point and a Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM) sample program for limiting the bandwidth used by v2 cgroups, from Lawrence. 8) Enable write access to skb->queue_mapping from tc BPF egress programs in order to let BPF pick TX queue, from Jesper. 9) Fix a bug in BPF spinlock handling for map-in-map which did not propagate spin_lock_off to the meta map, from Yonghong. 10) Fix a bug in the new per-CPU BPF prog counters to properly initialize stats for each CPU, from Eric. 11) Add various BPF helper prototypes to selftest's bpf_helpers.h, from Willem. 12) Fix various BPF samples bugs in XDP and tracing progs, from Toke, Daniel and Yonghong. 13) Silence preemption splat in test_bpf after BPF_PROG_RUN() enforces it now everywhere, from Anders. 14) Fix a signedness bug in libbpf's btf_dedup_ref_type() to get error handling working, from Dan. 15) Fix bpftool documentation and auto-completion with regards to stream_{verdict,parser} attach types, from Alban. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

|\ \ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Three conflicts, one of which, for marvell10g.c is non-trivial and requires some follow-up from Heiner or someone else. The issue is that Heiner converted the marvell10g driver over to use the generic c45 code as much as possible. However, in 'net' a bug fix appeared which makes sure that a new local mask (MDIO_AN_10GBT_CTRL_ADV_NBT_MASK) with value 0x01e0 is cleared. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

|\| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The netfilter conflicts were rather simple overlapping changes. However, the cls_tcindex.c stuff was a bit more complex. On the 'net' side, Cong is fixing several races and memory leaks. Whilst on the 'net-next' side we have Vlad adding the rtnl-ness support. What I've decided to do, in order to resolve this, is revert the conversion over to using a workqueue that Cong did, bringing us back to pure RCU. I did it this way because I believe that either Cong's races don't apply with have Vlad did things, or Cong will have to implement the race fix slightly differently. Signed-off-by: David S.

Any new users should create a proper device and pass the GPIO as a descriptor associated with the device so delete the GPIO argument from the calls and drop the code looking requesting a GPIO in fixed_phy_add(). In fixed phy_register(), investigate the "fixed-link" node and pick the GPIO descriptor from "link-gpios" if this property exists. Move the corresponding code out of of_mdio.c as the fixed phy code anyways requires OF to be in use.

| * | Revert "rxrpc: Allow failed client calls to be retried"David Howells2019-01-161-45/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The changes introduced to allow rxrpc calls to be retried creates an issue when it comes to refcounting afs_call structs. The problem is that when rxrpc_send_data() queues the last packet for an asynchronous call, the following sequence can occur: (1) The notify_end_tx callback is invoked which causes the state in the afs_call to be changed from AFS_CALL_CL_REQUESTING or AFS_CALL_SV_REPLYING. (2) afs_deliver_to_call() can then process event notifications from rxrpc on the async_work queue. (3) Delivery of events, such as an abort from the server, can cause the afs_call state to be changed to AFS_CALL_COMPLETE on async_work. (4) For an asynchronous call, afs_process_async_call() notes that the call is complete and tried to clean up all the refs on async_work. (5) rxrpc_send_data() might return the amount of data transferred (success) or an error - which could in turn reflect a local error or a received error. Synchronising the clean up after rxrpc_kernel_send_data() returns an error with the asynchronous cleanup is then tricky to get right. Mostly revert commit c038a58ccfd6704d4d7d60ed3d6a0fca13cf13a4. The two API functions the original commit added aren't currently used. This makes rxrpc_kernel_send_data() always return successfully if it queued the data it was given. Note that this doesn't affect synchronous calls since their Rx notification function merely pokes a wait queue and does not refcounting. The asynchronous call notification function *has* to do refcounting and pass a ref over the work item to avoid the need to sync the workqueue in call cleanup.
