This patch adds better IPv6 failover support for bonding devices,
especially when in active-backup mode and there are only IPv6 addresses
configured, as reported by Alex Sidorenko.
- Creates a new file, net/drivers/bonding/bond_ipv6.c, for the
IPv6-specific routines. Both regular bonds and VLANs over bonds
are supported.
- Adds a new tunable, num_unsol_na, to limit the number of unsolicited
IPv6 Neighbor Advertisements that are sent on a failover event.
Default is 1.
- Creates two new IPv6 neighbor discovery functions:
ndisc_build_skb()
ndisc_send_skb()
These were required to support VLANs since we have to be able to
add the VLAN id to the skb since ndisc_send_na() and friends
shouldn't be asked to do this. These two routines are basically
__ndisc_send() split into two pieces, in a slightly different order.
- Updates Documentation/networking/bonding.txt and bumps the rev of bond
support to 3.4.0.
On failover, this new code will generate one packet:
- An unsolicited IPv6 Neighbor Advertisement, which helps the switch
learn that the address has moved to the new slave.
Testing has shown that sending just the NA results in pretty good
behavior when in active-back mode, I saw no lost ping packets for example.

A packet dequeued and stored as gso_skb in qdisc_peek_dequeued() should
be seen as part of the queue for sch->q.qlen queries until it's really
dequeued with qdisc_dequeue_peeked(), so qlen needs additional updating
in these functions. (Updating qstats.backlog shouldn't matter here.)

I have been tracking for a while a case where when the
network namespace exits the cleanup gets stck in an
endless precessess of:
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 3
It turns out that if you listen on a multicast address an unsubscribe
packet is sent when the network device goes down. If you shutdown
the network namespace without carefully cleaning up this can trigger
the unsubscribe packet to be sent over the loopback interface while
the network namespace is going down.
All of which is fine except when we drop the packet and forget to
free it leaking the skb and the dst entry attached to. As it
turns out the dst entry hold a reference to the idev which holds
the dev and keeps everything from being cleaned up. Yuck!
By fixing my earlier thinko and add the needed kfree_skb and everything
cleans up beautifully.

I was recently hunting a bug that occurred in network namespace
cleanup. In looking at the code it became apparrent that we have
and will continue to have cases where if we have anything going
on in a network namespace there will be assumptions that the
loopback device is present. Things like sending igmp unsubscribe
messages when we bring down network devices invokes the routing
code which assumes that at least the loopback driver is present.
Therefore to avoid magic initcall ordering hackery that is hard
to follow and hard to get right insert a call to register the
loopback device directly from net_dev_init(). This guarantes
that the loopback device is the first device registered and
the last network device to go away.

When physical devices are inside of network namespace and that
network namespace terminates we can not make them go away. We
have to keep them and moving them to the initial network namespace
is the best we can do.
For virtual devices left in a network namespace that is exiting
we have no need to preserve them and we now have the infrastructure
that allows us to delete them. So delete virtual devices when we
exit a network namespace. Keeping the necessary user space clean up
after a network namespace exits much more tractable.

I noticed a contention on udp_memory_allocated on regular UDP applications.
While tcp_memory_allocated is seldom used, it appears each incoming UDP frame
is currently touching udp_memory_allocated when queued, and when received by
application.
One possible solution is to use sk_mem_reclaim_partial() instead of
sk_mem_reclaim(), so that we keep a small reserve (less than one page)
of memory for each UDP socket.
We did something very similar on TCP side in commit
9993e7d313e80bdc005d09c7def91903e0068f07
([TCP]: Do not purge sk_forward_alloc entirely in tcp_delack_timer())
A more complex solution would need to convert prot->memory_allocated to
use a percpu_counter with batches of 64 or 128 pages.

This patch prepares for the new and extended feature-negotiation
routines.
The following feature-negotiation data structures are provided:
* a container for the various (SP or NN) values,
* symbolic state names to track feature states,
* an entry struct which holds all current information together,
* elementary functions to fill in and process these structures.
Entry structs are arranged as FIFO for the following reason: RFC 4340
specifies that if multiple options of the same type are present, they
are processed in the order of their appearance in the packet; which
means that this order needs to be preserved in the local data
structure (the later insertion code also respects this order).
The struct list_head has been chosen for the following reasons: the most
frequent operations are
* add new entry at tail (when receiving Change or setting socket
options);
* delete entry (when Confirm has been received);
* deep copy of entire list (cloning from listening socket onto
request socket).
The NN value has been set to 64 bit, which is a currently sufficient
upper limit (Sequence Window feature has 48 bit).
Thanks to Arnaldo, who contributed the streamlined layout of the entry
struct.

The only user of the net_device->last_rx field is bonding.
This patch adds a conditional update of last_rx to the bonding special
logic in skb_bond_should_drop, causing last_rx to only be updated when
the ARP monitor is running.
This frees network device drivers from the necessity of
updating last_rx, which can have cache line thrash issues.

This patch refines the phylib support in the tg3 driver. The patch does
the following things :
* Rename tg3_mdio_config() to tg3_mdio_config_5785(). The 5785 will be
the only device that will use it so the name might as well reflect
that.
* Fix a memory leak if mdiobus_register() fails.
* Add code to deal with phy device detection failures.
* Add code to correct the supported list of phy features based on the
MAC <=> PHY interface.

Commit 12dac0756d357325b107fe6ec24921ec38661839 ("tg3: adapt tg3 to
use reworked PCI PM code") introduced the new PCI PM API to the tg3
driver. The patch was understandably conservative, so this patch
elaborates on that work.
The patch starts by creating a single point in tg3_set_power_state()
to decide whether or not to enable WOL. The rest of the code in
tg3_set_power_state() was then pivoted to use the result of this
decision.
The patch then makes sure the device is allowed to wakeup before
reporting whether or not WOL is currently enabled. The final hunks of
the patch consolidate where the WOL capability and WOL enabled flags
are set to a single location.

DASH firmware runs on the APE side of the chip, but it requires a few MAC
to be programmed correctly.
When WOL is enabled and management firmware is disabled, incoming
packets are evaluated and discarded at the chip's rule processor.
When management firmware is enabled, the hardware must be informed that
there are agents further up the stack that still use the incoming
frames. Normally management firmware will configure the MAC correctly
on its own, but there can be cases where the setting could get clobbered
by the driver. The first hunk of this patch preserves this setting.
The second hunk of this patch wipes out the driver present signature of
the APE memory space. By doing so, the DASH firmware can assume
driver absent behavior.

did not undergo a similar change because the information derived from
