Change the AP isolation mechanism to not only "isolate" WIFI
clients but also all those marked with the more generic
"isolation flag" (BATADV_TT_CLIENT_ISOLA).

The result is that when AP isolation is on any unicast
packet originated by an "isolated" client and directed to
another "isolated" client is dropped at the source node.

A client sending packets which mark matches the value
configured via sysfs has to be identified as isolated using
the TT_CLIENT_ISOLA flag.

The match is mask based, meaning that only bits set in the
mask are compared with those in the mark value.

If the configured mask is equal to 0 no operation is
performed.

Such flag is then advertised within the classic client
announcement mechanism.

This attribute can be used to set and read the value and the
mask of the skb mark which will be used to classify the
source non-mesh client as ISOLATED. In this way a client can
be advertised as such and the mark can potentially be
restored at the receiving node before delivering the skb.

This can be helpful for creating network wide netfilter
policies.

This sysfs file expects a string of the shape "$mark/$mask".
Where $mark has to be a 32-bit number in any base, while
$mask must be a 32bit mask expressed in hex base. Only bits
in $mark covered by the bitmask are really stored.

In different situations it is possible that the DHCP server
or client uses broadcast Ethernet frames to send messages
to each other. The GW component in batman-adv takes care of
using bat-unicast packets to bring broadcast DHCP
Discover/Requests to the "best" server.

On the way back the DHCP server usually sends unicasts,
but upon client request it may decide to use broadcasts as
well.

This patch improves the GW component so that it now snoops
and sends as unicast all the DHCP packets, no matter if they
were generated by a DHCP server or client.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates

This series contains updates to i40e only.

Anjali adds more functionality to debugfs to assist development and
testing of admin queue commands.

Greg makes sure broadcast promiscuous is disabled by default, otherwise
VLAN tagged packets out of the assigned VLAN domain are received.  Also
provides a fix when the 8021q driver is loaded, so that VLAN 0 tagged
packets are accepted so that upper layers can interpret the priority
bits. Then provides a fix to let the VF to request the PF to set its
already assigned MAC address without generating an error.  Greg also
adds helper functions to enable or disable internal switch loopback
when VFs are created or destroyed via the sysfs interface.

Shannon provides most of the changes, where he adds code to ensure
that the hardware waits to make sure that the firmware is ready as well
after reset.  Also updates the code to use the new features in the
firmware.  Provides a fix while in MFP mode where resources are
reduced, so use a smaller range of test registers than when in SFP mode.
Moves the PF ID initialization code to earlier in the driver
initialization function since a few operations need the information
before the first PF reset is called.  Shannon adds a check for MAC
type before reading anything from the registers to ensure we dealing
with the correct MAC type.  Then reworks Shadow RAM read word/buffer
functions as to not block whole NVM resources for SR read operations.

Mitch lastly provides a fix to correctly setup ARQ descriptors in
the cleanup code.

Catherine bumps the driver version due to all the recent changes.

tipc: link setup and failover improvements

This series consists of four unrelated commits with different purposes.

- Commit #2 fixes a bug that has always been in the code, but was not

- Commit #3 fixes a non-fatal race issue in the neighbour discovery

When a link is created we delay the start event by launching it
to be executed later in a tasklet. As we hold all the
necessary locks at the moment of creation, and there is no risk
of deadlock or contention, this delay serves no purpose in the
current code.

We remove this obsolete indirection step, and the associated function
link_start(). At the same time, we rename the function tipc_link_stop()
to the more appropriate tipc_link_purge_queues().

Currently, only 'bearer_lock' is used to protect struct link_req in
the function disc_timeout(). This is unsafe, since the member fields
'num_nodes' and 'timer_intv' might be accessed by below three different
threads simultaneously, none of them grabbing bearer_lock in the
critical region:

link_activate()
  tipc_bearer_add_dest()
    tipc_disc_add_dest()
      req->num_nodes++;

tipc_link_reset()
  tipc_bearer_remove_dest()
    tipc_disc_remove_dest()
      req->num_nodes--
      disc_update()
        read req->num_nodes
	write req->timer_intv

disc_timeout()
  read req->num_nodes
  read/write req->timer_intv

Without lock protection, the only symptom of a race is that discovery
messages occasionally may not be sent out. This is not fatal, since such
messages are best-effort anyway. On the other hand, since discovery
messages are not time critical, adding a protecting lock brings no
serious overhead either. So we add a new, dedicated spinlock in
order to guarantee absolute data consistency in link_req objects.
This also helps reduce the overall role of the bearer_lock, which
we want to remove completely in a later commit series.

The flag 'has_redundant_link' is defined only in RESET and ACTIVATE
protocol messages. Due to an ambiguity in the protocol specification it
is currently also transferred in STATE messages. Its value is used to
initialize a link state variable, 'permit_changeover', which is used
to inhibit futile link failover attempts when it is known that the
peer node has no working links at the moment, although the local node
may still think it has one.

The fact that 'has_redundant_link' incorrectly is read from STATE
messages has the effect that 'permit_changeover' sometimes gets a wrong
value, and permanently blocks any links from being re-established. Such
failures can only occur in in dual-link systems, and are extremely rare.
This bug seems to have always been present in the code.

Furthermore, since commit b4b56102
("tipc: Ensure both nodes recognize loss of contact between them"),
the 'permit_changeover' field serves no purpose any more. The task of
enforcing 'lost contact' cycles at both peer endpoints is now taken
by a new mechanism, using the flags WAIT_NODE_DOWN and WAIT_PEER_DOWN
in struct tipc_node to abort unnecessary failover attempts.

We therefore remove the 'has_redundant_link' flag from STATE messages,
as well as the now redundant 'permit_changeover' variable.

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e8
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.

The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.

Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.

The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.

Note that commit 60769a5d "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.

I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.

All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)

An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.

The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

1.1 ethtool -K gre1 gro off; ethtool -K eth0 gro off
thruput: 9.16Gbps
CPU utilization: 19%

1.2 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro off

CPU utilization: 12-13%

1.4 ethtool -K gre1 gro on; ethtool -K eth0 gro on

The following tests were performed on a different NIC that is capable of
csum offload. I.e., the h/w is capable of computing IP payload csum
(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

When lo is brought up, new ifa is created. Then, devconf and neigh values
bitfield should be set so later changes of default values would not
affect lo values.

Note that the same behaviour is in ipv6. Also note that this is likely
not an issue in many distros (for example Fedora 19) because userspace
sets address to lo manually before bringing it up.

This change allows to follow a recommandation of RFC4942.

- Add "anycast_src_echo_reply" sysctl to control the use of anycast addresses
  as source addresses for ICMPv6 echo reply. This sysctl is false by default
  to preserve existing behavior.
- Add inline check ipv6_anycast_destination().
- Use them in icmpv6_echo_reply().

Reference:
RFC4942 - IPv6 Transition/Coexistence Security Considerations
   (http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4942#section-2.1.6)

2.1.6. Anycast Traffic Identification and Security

   [...]
   To avoid exposing knowledge about the internal structure of the
   network, it is recommended that anycast servers now take advantage of
   the ability to return responses with the anycast address as the
   source address if possible.
