Historically the NetLabel LSM secattr catmap functions and data
structures have had very long names which makes a mess of the NetLabel
code and anyone who uses NetLabel. This patch renames the catmap
functions and structures from "*_secattr_catmap_*" to just "*_catmap_*"
which improves things greatly.
There are no substantial code or logic changes in this patch.

The NetLabel secattr catmap functions, and the SELinux import/export
glue routines, were broken in many horrible ways and the SELinux glue
code fiddled with the NetLabel catmap structures in ways that we
probably shouldn't allow. At some point this "worked", but that was
likely due to a bit of dumb luck and sub-par testing (both inflicted
by yours truly). This patch corrects these problems by basically
gutting the code in favor of something less obtuse and restoring the
NetLabel abstractions in the SELinux catmap glue code.
Everything is working now, and if it decides to break itself in the
future this code will be much easier to debug than the code it
replaces.
One noteworthy side effect of the changes is that it is no longer
necessary to allocate a NetLabel catmap before calling one of the
NetLabel APIs to set a bit in the catmap. NetLabel will automatically
allocate the catmap nodes when needed, resulting in less allocations
when the lowest bit is greater than 255 and less code in the LSMs.

The NetLabel category (catmap) functions have a problem in that they
assume categories will be set in an increasing manner, e.g. the next
category set will always be larger than the last. Unfortunately, this
is not a valid assumption and could result in problems when attempting
to set categories less than the startbit in the lowest catmap node.
In some cases kernel panics and other nasties can result.
This patch corrects the problem by checking for this and allocating a
new catmap node instance and placing it at the front of the list.

In "Counting Packets Sent Between Arbitrary Internet Hosts", Jeffrey and
Jedidiah describe ways exploiting linux IP identifier generation to
infer whether two machines are exchanging packets.
With commit 73f156a6e8c1 ("inetpeer: get rid of ip_id_count"), we
changed IP id generation, but this does not really prevent this
side-channel technique.
This patch adds a random amount of perturbation so that IP identifiers
for a given destination [1] are no longer monotonically increasing after
an idle period.
Note that prandom_u32_max(1) returns 0, so if generator is used at most
once per jiffy, this patch inserts no hole in the ID suite and do not
increase collision probability.
This is jiffies based, so in the worst case (HZ=1000), the id can
rollover after ~65 seconds of idle time, which should be fine.
We also change the hash used in __ip_select_ident() to not only hash
on daddr, but also saddr and protocol, so that ICMP probes can not be
used to infer information for other protocols.
For IPv6, adds saddr into the hash as well, but not nexthdr.
If I ping the patched target, we can see ID are now hard to predict.
21:57:11.008086 IP (...)
A > target: ICMP echo request, seq 1, length 64
21:57:11.010752 IP (... id 2081 ...)
target > A: ICMP echo reply, seq 1, length 64
21:57:12.013133 IP (...)
A > target: ICMP echo request, seq 2, length 64
21:57:12.015737 IP (... id 3039 ...)

Netfilter/nf_tables fixes
The following patchset contains nf_tables fixes, they are:
1) Fix wrong transaction handling when the table flags are not
modified.
2) Fix missing rcu read_lock section in the netlink dump path, which
is not protected by the nfnl_lock.
3) Set NLM_F_DUMP_INTR in the netlink dump path to indicate
interferences with updates.
4) Fix 64 bits chain counters when they are retrieved from a 32 bits
arch, from Eric Dumazet.

The code in neigh_sysctl_register() relies on a specific layout of
struct neigh_table, namely that the 'gc_*' variables are directly
following the 'parms' member in a specific order. The code, though,
expresses this in the most ugly way.
Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to
the table. This way we can refer to the 'gc_*' variables directly.
Similarly seen in the grsecurity patch, written by Brad Spengler.

An updater may interfer with the dumping of any of the object lists.
Fix this by using a per-net generation counter and use the
nl_dump_check_consistent() interface so the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR flag is set
to notify userspace that it has to restart the dump since an updater
has interfered.
This patch also replaces the existing consistency checking code in the
rule dumping path since it is broken. Basically, the value that the
dump callback returns is not propagated to userspace via
netlink_dump_start().

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We have two different ways to handle changes to sk->sk_dst
First way (used by TCP) assumes socket lock is owned by caller, and use
no extra lock : __sk_dst_set() & __sk_dst_reset()
Another way (used by UDP) uses sk_dst_lock because socket lock is not
always taken. Note that sk_dst_lock is not softirq safe.
These ways are not inter changeable for a given socket type.
ipv4_sk_update_pmtu(), added in linux-3.8, added a race, as it used
the socket lock as synchronization, but users might be UDP sockets.
Instead of converting sk_dst_lock to a softirq safe version, use xchg()
as we did for sk_rx_dst in commit e47eb5dfb296b ("udp: ipv4: do not use
sk_dst_lock from softirq context")
In a follow up patch, we probably can remove sk_dst_lock, as it is
only used in IPv6.

When IP route cache had been removed in linux-3.6, we broke assumption
that dst entries were all freed after rcu grace period. DST_NOCACHE
dst were supposed to be freed from dst_release(). But it appears
we want to keep such dst around, either in UDP sockets or tunnels.
In sk_dst_get() we need to make sure dst refcount is not 0
before incrementing it, or else we might end up freeing a dst
twice.
DST_NOCACHE set on a dst does not mean this dst can not be attached
to a socket or a tunnel.
Then, before actual freeing, we need to observe a rcu grace period
to make sure all other cpus can catch the fact the dst is no longer
usable.

Since 4fefee5 ("netfilter: nf_tables: allow to delete several objects
from a batch"), every new rule bumps the chain use counter. However,
this is limited to 16 bits, which means that it will overrun after
2^16 rules.
Use a u32 chain counter and check for overflows (just like we do for
table objects).

The DRR scheduler requires that items on the active list are work
conserving, i.e. do not hold on to skbs for throttling purposes, etc.
Attaching e.g. tbf renders DRR useless because all other classes on the
active list are delayed as well.
So, warn users that this configuration won't work as expected; we
already do this in couple of other qdiscs, see e.g.
commit b00355db3f88d96810a60011a30cfb2c3469409d
('pkt_sched: sch_hfsc: sch_htb: Add non-work-conserving warning handler')
The 'const' change is needed to avoid compiler warning ("discards 'const'
qualifier from pointer target type").

Ideally, we would need to generate IP ID using a per destination IP
generator.
linux kernels used inet_peer cache for this purpose, but this had a huge
cost on servers disabling MTU discovery.
1) each inet_peer struct consumes 192 bytes
2) inetpeer cache uses a binary tree of inet_peer structs,
with a nominal size of ~66000 elements under load.
3) lookups in this tree are hitting a lot of cache lines, as tree depth
is about 20.
4) If server deals with many tcp flows, we have a high probability of
not finding the inet_peer, allocating a fresh one, inserting it in
the tree with same initial ip_id_count, (cf secure_ip_id())
5) We garbage collect inet_peer aggressively.
IP ID generation do not have to be 'perfect'
Goal is trying to avoid duplicates in a short period of time,
so that reassembly units have a chance to complete reassembly of
fragments belonging to one message before receiving other fragments
with a recycled ID.
We simply use an array of generators, and a Jenkin hash using the dst IP
as a key.
ipv6_select_ident() is put back into net/ipv6/ip6_output.c where it
belongs (it is only used from this file)
secure_ip_id() and secure_ipv6_id() no longer are needed.
Rename ip_select_ident_more() to ip_select_ident_segs() to avoid
unnecessary decrement/increment of the number of segments.

In some cases, when the driver is already using all the channel
contexts it can handle at once, we have to do an in-place switch
(ie. we cannot afford using an extra context temporarily for the
transaction). But some drivers may not support switching the channel
context assigned to a vif on the fly (ie. without unassigning and
assigning it) while others may only work if the context is changed on
the fly, without unassigning it first.
To allow these different scenarios, add a new driver operation that
let's the driver decide how to handle an in-place switch.

checksums in both TX and RX-- sk_no_check_tx and sk_no_check_rx.
The SO_NO_CHECK socket option only affects sk_no_check_tx. Also,
removed UDP_CSUM_* defines since they are no longer necessary.

It doesn't seem like an protocols are setting anything other
than the default, and allowing to arbitrarily disable checksums
for a whole protocol seems dangerous. This can be done on a per
socket basis.

On the mgmt level we have a key type parameter which currently accepts
two possible values: 0x00 for unauthenticated and 0x01 for
authenticated. However, in the internal struct smp_ltk representation we
have an explicit "authenticated" boolean value.
To make this distinction clear, add defines for the possible mgmt values
and do conversion to and from the internal authenticated value.

pull request (net-next): ipsec-next 2014-05-22
This is the last ipsec pull request before I leave for
a three weeks vacation tomorrow. David, can you please
take urgent ipsec patches directly into net/net-next
during this time?
I'll continue to run the ipsec/ipsec-next trees as soon
as I'm back.
1) Simplify the xfrm audit handling, from Tetsuo Handa.
2) Codingstyle cleanup for xfrm_output, from abian Frederick.
Please pull or let me know if there are problems.

allows to implement software TSO in mvneta and mv643xx_eth drivers in a not

"NFC: 3.16: First pull request
This is the NFC pull request for 3.16. We have:
- STMicroeectronics st21nfca support. The st21nfca is an HCI chipset and
thus relies on the HCI stack. This submission provides support for tag
redaer/writer mode (including Type 5) and device tree bindings.
- PM runtime support and a bunch of bug fixes for TI's trf7970a.
- Device tree support for NXP's pn544. Legacy platform data support is
obviously kept intact.
- NFC Tag type 4B support to the NFC Digital stack.
- SOCK_RAW type support to the raw NFC socket, and allow NCI
sniffing from that. This can be extended to report HCI frames and also
proprietarry ones like e.g. the pn533 ones."

Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
1) Add set element update notification via netlink, from Arturo Borrero.
2) Put all object updates in one single message batch that is sent to
kernel-space. Before this patch only rules where included in the batch.
This series also introduces the generic transaction infrastructure so
updates to all objects (tables, chains, rules and sets) are applied in
an all-or-nothing fashion, these series from me.
3) Defer release of objects via call_rcu to reduce the time required to
commit changes. The assumption is that all objects are destroyed in
reverse order to ensure that dependencies betweem them are fulfilled
(ie. rules and sets are destroyed first, then chains, and finally
tables).
4) Allow to match by bridge port name, from Tomasz Bursztyka. This series
include two patches to prepare this new feature.
5) Implement the proper set selection based on the characteristics of the
data. The new infrastructure also allows you to specify your preferences
in terms of memory and computational complexity so the underlying set
type is also selected according to your needs, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Several cleanup patches for nft expressions, including one minor possible
compilation breakage due to missing mark support, also from Patrick.

Experience with the recent e114a710aa50 ("tcp: fix cwnd limited
checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are
common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than
necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too
large, among other things.
The main problems seemed to be:
(1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the
connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit
sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding
packets.
(2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of
outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not
needed).
This commit improves both of these, by:
(1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly
track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window
("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the
moment we finished sending that flight.
(2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding
packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance
mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
value is still valid.

Implement and export the new cfg80211_get_station() API.
This utility can be used by other kernel modules to obtain
detailed information about a given wireless station.
It will be in particular useful to batman-adv which will
implement a wireless rate based metric.

Add get_expected_throughput() API to mac80211 so that each
driver can implement its own version based on the RC
algorithm they are using (might be using an HW RC algo).
The API returns a value expressed in Kbps.
Also, add the new get_expected_throughput() member
to the rate_control_ops structure in order to be
able to query the RC algorithm (this patch provides an
implementation of this API for both minstrel and
minstrel_ht).
The related member in the station_info object is now
filled accordingly when dumping a station.

Users may need information about the expected throughput
towards a given peer.
This value is supposed to consider the size overhead
generated by the 802.11 header.
This value is exported in kbps through the get_station() API
by including it into the station_info object.
Moreover, it is sent to user space when replying to the
nl80211 GET_STATION command.
This information will be useful to the batman-adv module
which will use it for its new metric computation.
