Preventing the kernel from responding to ICMP Echo Requests messages
can be useful in several ways. The sysctl parameter
'icmp_echo_ignore_all' can be used to prevent the kernel from
responding to IPv4 ICMP echo requests. For IPv6 pings, such
a sysctl kernel parameter did not exist.
Add the ability to prevent the kernel from responding to IPv6
ICMP echo requests through the use of the following sysctl
parameter : /proc/sys/net/ipv6/icmp/echo_ignore_all.
Update the documentation to reflect this change.

net/tls: Combined memory allocation for decryption request
This patch does a combined memory allocation from heap for scatterlists,
aead_request, aad and iv for the tls record decryption path. In present
code, aead_request is allocated from heap, scatterlists on a conditional
basis are allocated on heap or on stack. This is inefficient as it may
requires multiple kmalloc/kfree.
The initialization vector passed in cryption request is allocated on
stack. This is a problem since the stack memory is not dma-able from
crypto accelerators.
Doing one combined memory allocation for each decryption request fixes
both the above issues. It also paves a way to be able to submit multiple
async decryption requests while the previous one is pending i.e. being
processed or queued.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
For preparing decryption request, several memory chunks are required
(aead_req, sgin, sgout, iv, aad). For submitting the decrypt request to
an accelerator, it is required that the buffers which are read by the
accelerator must be dma-able and not come from stack. The buffers for
aad and iv can be separately kmalloced each, but it is inefficient.
This patch does a combined allocation for preparing decryption request
and then segments into aead_req || sgin || sgout || iv || aad.

This patch introduces several helper functions/macros that will be
used in the follow-up patch. No runtime changes yet.
The new logic (fully implemented in the second patch) is as follows:
* Nodes in the rb-tree will now contain not single fragments, but lists
of consecutive fragments ("runs").
* At each point in time, the current "active" run at the tail is
maintained/tracked. Fragments that arrive in-order, adjacent
to the previous tail fragment, are added to this tail run without
triggering the re-balancing of the rb-tree.
* If a fragment arrives out of order with the offset _before_ the tail run,
it is inserted into the rb-tree as a single fragment.
* If a fragment arrives after the current tail fragment (with a gap),
it starts a new "tail" run, as is inserted into the rb-tree
at the end as the head of the new run.
skb->cb is used to store additional information
needed here (suggested by Eric Dumazet).

====================
Remove rtnl lock dependency from all action implementations
Currently, all netlink protocol handlers for updating rules, actions and
qdiscs are protected with single global rtnl lock which removes any
possibility for parallelism. This patch set is a second step to remove
rtnl lock dependency from TC rules update path.
Recently, new rtnl registration flag RTNL_FLAG_DOIT_UNLOCKED was added.
Handlers registered with this flag are called without RTNL taken. End
goal is to have rule update handlers(RTM_NEWTFILTER, RTM_DELTFILTER,
etc.) to be registered with UNLOCKED flag to allow parallel execution.
However, there is no intention to completely remove or split rtnl lock
itself. This patch set addresses specific problems in implementation of
tc actions that prevent their control path from being executed
concurrently. Additional changes are required to refactor classifiers
API and individual classifiers for parallel execution. This patch set
lays groundwork to eventually register rule update handlers as
rtnl-unlocked.
Action API is already prepared for parallel execution with previous
patch set, which means that action ops that use action API for their
implementation do not require additional modifications. (delete, search,
etc.) Action API implements concurrency-safe reference counting and
guarantees that cleanup/delete is called only once, after last reference
to action is released.
The goal of this change is to update specific actions APIs that access
action private state directly, in order to be independent from external
locking. General approach is to re-use existing tcf_lock spinlock (used
by some action implementation to synchronize control path with data
path) to protect action private state from concurrent modification. If
action has rcu-protected pointer, tcf spinlock is used to protect its
update code, instead of relying on rtnl lock.
Some actions need to determine rtnl mutex status in order to release it.
For example, ife action can load additional kernel modules(meta ops) and
must make sure that no locks are held during module load. In such cases
'rtnl_held' argument is used to conditionally release rtnl mutex.
Changes from V1 to V2:
- Patch 12:

- Patch 14:

rate estimator statistics pointer

====================
net/sctp: Avoid allocating high order memory with kmalloc()
Each SCTP association can have up to 65535 input and output streams.
For each stream type an array of sctp_stream_in or sctp_stream_out
structures is allocated using kmalloc_array() function. This function
allocates physically contiguous memory regions, so this can lead
to allocation of memory regions of very high order, i.e.:
sizeof(struct sctp_stream_out) == 24,
((65535 * 24) / 4096) == 383 memory pages (4096 byte per page),
which means 9th memory order.
This can lead to a memory allocation failures on the systems
under a memory stress.
We actually do not need these arrays of memory to be physically
contiguous. Possible simple solution would be to use kvmalloc()
instread of kmalloc() as kvmalloc() can allocate physically scattered
pages if contiguous pages are not available. But the problem
is that the allocation can happed in a softirq context with
GFP_ATOMIC flag set, and kvmalloc() cannot be used in this scenario.
So the other possible solution is to use flexible arrays instead of
contiguios arrays of memory so that the memory would be allocated
on a per-page basis.
This patchset replaces kvmalloc() with flex_array usage.
It consists of two parts:
* First patch is preparatory - it mechanically wraps all direct
access to assoc->stream.out[] and assoc->stream.in[] arrays
with SCTP_SO() and SCTP_SI() wrappers so that later a direct
array access could be easily changed to an access to a
flex_array (or any other possible alternative).
* Second patch replaces kmalloc_array() with flex_array usage.
v2 changes:
sctp_stream_in() users are updated to provide stream as an argument,
sctp_stream_{in,out}_ptr() are now just sctp_stream_{in,out}().
v3 changes:
Move type chages struct sctp_stream_out -> flex_array to next patch.
Make sctp_stream_{in,out}() static incline and move them to a header.

l2tp: rework pppol2tp ioctl handling
The current ioctl() handling code can be simplified. It tests for
non-relevant conditions and uselessly holds sockets. Once useless
code is removed, it becomes even simpler to let pppol2tp_ioctl() handle
commands directly, rather than dispatch them to pppol2tp_tunnel_ioctl()
or pppol2tp_session_ioctl(). That is the approach taken by this series.
Patch #1 and #2 define helper functions aimed at simplifying the rest
of the patch set.
Patch #3 drops useless tests in pppol2p_ioctl() and avoid holding a
refcount on the socket.
Patches #4, #5 and #6 are the core of the series. They let
pppol2tp_ioctl() handle all ioctls and drop the tunnel and session
specific functions.
Then patch #6 brings a little bit of consolidation.
Finally, patch #7 takes advantage of the simplified code to make
pppol2tp sockets compatible with dev_ioctl(). Certainly not a killer
feature, but it is trivial and it is always nice to see l2tp getting
better integration with the rest of the stack.

Handle PPPIOCGL2TPSTATS in pppol2tp_ioctl() if the socket represents a

socket to retrieve statistics of one of its sessions. If the session_id

those of the tunnel. This is handled by the new

Set ->tunnel_id and ->using_ipsec out of the conditional, so
that it can be used by the 'else' branch in the following patch.
We cannot do that for ->session_id, because tunnel sockets have to

Always set the affinity hint, even if #cpu != #vq.
Handle the case where #cpu > #vq (including when #cpu % #vq != 0) and
when #vq > #cpu (including when #vq % #cpu != 0).

Make vp_set_vq_affinity() take a cpumask instead of taking a single CPU.
If there are fewer queues than cores, queue affinity should be able to
map to multiple cores.

tcp: new mechanism to ACK immediately
This patch is a follow-up feature improvement to the recent fixes on
the performance issues in ECN (delayed) ACKs. Many of the fixes use
tcp_enter_quickack_mode routine to force immediate ACKs. However the
routine also reset tracking interactive session. This is not ideal
because these immediate ACKs are required by protocol specifics
unrelated to the interactiveness nature of the application.
This patch set introduces a new flag to send a one-time immediate ACK
without changing the status of interactive session tracking. With this
patch set the immediate ACKs are generated upon these protocol states:
1) When a hole is repaired
2) When CE status changes between subsequent data packets received
3) When a data packet carries CWR flag

RFC 5681 sec 4.2:
To provide feedback to senders recovering from losses, the receiver
SHOULD send an immediate ACK when it receives a data segment that
fills in all or part of a gap in the sequence space.
When a gap is partially filled, __tcp_ack_snd_check already checks
the out-of-order queue and correctly send an immediate ACK. However
when a gap is fully filled, the previous implementation only resets
pingpong mode which does not guarantee an immediate ACK because the
quick ACK counter may be zero. This patch addresses this issue by
marking the one-time immediate ACK flag instead.

The recent fix of acking immediately in DCTCP on CE status change
has an undesirable side-effect: it also resets TCP ack timer and
disables pingpong mode (interactive session). But the CE status
change has nothing to do with them. This patch addresses that by
using the new one-time immediate ACK flag instead of calling
tcp_enter_quickack_mode().

Add a new flag to indicate a one-time immediate ACK. This flag is
occasionaly set under specific TCP protocol states in addition to
the more common quickack mechanism for interactive application.
In several cases in the TCP code we want to force an immediate ACK
but do not want to call tcp_enter_quickack_mode() because we do
not want to forget the icsk_ack.pingpong or icsk_ack.ato state.
