<content type='text'>
commit 5ec9121195a4f1cecd0fa592636c5f81eb03dc8c upstream.

Raw interface initialization needs QDISC_BYPASS. Otherwise
it sees its own packets when transmitting.

commit 4579a1ba692af81da7ea6ce197f8169ddc0c327f upstream.

UML vector drivers could derefence uninitialized memory
when cleaning up after a queue allocation failure.

<title>net: in virtio_net_hdr only add VLAN_HLEN to csum_start if payload holds vlan</title>

<id>urn:sha1:aba9ac38845ce702fc5a579b44abef1f0006600d</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit fd3a88625844907151737fc3b4201676effa6d27 ]

Tun, tap, virtio, packet and uml vector all use struct virtio_net_hdr
to communicate packet metadata to userspace.

For skbuffs with vlan, the first two return the packet as it may have
existed on the wire, inserting the VLAN tag in the user buffer.  Then
virtio_net_hdr.csum_start needs to be adjusted by VLAN_HLEN bytes.

Commit f09e2249c4f5 ("macvtap: restore vlan header on user read")
added this feature to macvtap. Commit 3ce9b20f1971 ("macvtap: Fix
csum_start when VLAN tags are present") then fixed up csum_start.

Virtio, packet and uml do not insert the vlan header in the user
buffer.

When introducing virtio_net_hdr_from_skb to deduplicate filling in
the virtio_net_hdr, the variant from macvtap which adds VLAN_HLEN was
applied uniformly, breaking csum offset for packets with vlan on
virtio and packet.

Make insertion of VLAN_HLEN optional. Convert the callers to pass it
when needed.

Vector RAW in UML needs to BPF filter its own MAC only
if QDISC_BYPASS has failed. If QDISC_BYPASS is successful, the
frames originated locally are not visible to readers on the
raw socket.

The patches for the UML vector drivers were in-flight when
the timer changes happened and were not covered by them.

This change migrates vector_kern.c to use the new timer API.

<content type='text'>
If 'find_device()' finds something, we set '*error_out' and we should
return an error. However, 'err' is known to be 0 at this point.

Explicitly return -EINVAL instead.

While at it, remove the initialization of 'err' at the beginning of the
function and also explicitly return an error code if the first check
fails.

Checking the result of the previous 'kstrdup()' call is expected here, so
we should test 'params' and not 'str' (which is known to be non-NULL at
this point)

1. Removes the need to walk the IRQ/Device list to determine
who triggered the IRQ.
2. Improves scalability (up to several times performance
improvement for cases with 10s of devices).
3. Improves UML baseline IO performance for one disk + one NIC
use case by up to 10%.
4. Introduces write poll triggered IRQs.
5. Prerequisite for introducing high performance mmesg family
of functions in network IO.
6. Fixes RNG shutdown which was leaking a file descriptor
