I noticed that this function uses a lot of kernel stack when the
"latent entropy" plugin is enabled:

drivers/isdn/hardware/eicon/message.c: In function 'sig_ind':
drivers/isdn/hardware/eicon/message.c:6113:1: error: the frame size of 1168 bytes is larger than 1152 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=]

We currently don't warn about this, as we raise the warning limit
to 2048 bytes in mainline, but I'd like to lower that limit again
in the future, and this function can easily be changed to be more
efficient and avoid that warning, by making some of its local

The tc could return NET_XMIT_CN as one congestion notification, but
it does not mean the packet is lost. Other modules like ipvlan,
macvlan, and others treat NET_XMIT_CN as success too.

So batman-adv should handle NET_XMIT_CN also as NET_XMIT_SUCCESS.

Without TFO, any subsequent connect() call after a successful one returns
-1 EISCONN. The last API update ensured that __inet_stream_connect() can
return -1 EINPROGRESS in response to sendmsg() when TFO is in use to
indicate that the connection is now in progress. Unfortunately since this
function is used both for connect() and sendmsg(), it has the undesired
side effect of making connect() now return -1 EINPROGRESS as well after
a successful call, while at the same time poll() returns POLLOUT. This
can confuse some applications which happen to call connect() and to
check for -1 EISCONN to ensure the connection is usable, and for which
EINPROGRESS indicates a need to poll, causing a loop.

This problem was encountered in haproxy where a call to connect() is
precisely used in certain cases to confirm a connection's readiness.
While arguably haproxy's behaviour should be improved here, it seems
important to aim at a more robust behaviour when the goal of the new
API is to make it easier to implement TFO in existing applications.

This patch simply ensures that we preserve the same semantics as in
the non-TFO case on the connect() syscall when using TFO, while still
returning -1 EINPROGRESS on sendmsg(). For this we simply tell
__inet_stream_connect() whether we're doing a regular connect() or in
fact connecting for a sendmsg() call.

net/tcp-fastopen: Add new userspace API support

The patch series is to add support for new userspace API for TCP fastopen
sockets.
In the current code, user has to call sendto()/sendmsg() with special flag
MSG_FASTOPEN for TCP fastopen sockets. This API is quite different from the
normal TCP socket API and can be cumbersome for applications to make use
fastopen sockets.
So this new patch introduces a new way of using TCP fastopen sockets which
is similar to normal TCP sockets with a new sockopt TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT.
More details about it is described in the third patch.
(First 2 patches are preparations for the third patch.)
====================
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch adds a new socket option, TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT, as an
alternative way to perform Fast Open on the active side (client). Prior
to this patch, a client needs to replace the connect() call with
sendto(MSG_FASTOPEN). This can be cumbersome for applications who want
to use Fast Open: these socket operations are often done in lower layer
libraries used by many other applications. Changing these libraries
and/or the socket call sequences are not trivial. A more convenient
approach is to perform Fast Open by simply enabling a socket option when
the socket is created w/o changing other socket calls sequence:
  s = socket()
    create a new socket
  setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT …);
    newly introduced sockopt
    If set, new functionality described below will be used.
    Return ENOTSUPP if TFO is not supported or not enabled in the
    kernel.

  connect()
    With cookie present, return 0 immediately.
    With no cookie, initiate 3WHS with TFO cookie-request option and
    return -1 with errno = EINPROGRESS.

  write()/sendmsg()
    With cookie present, send out SYN with data and return the number of
    bytes buffered.
    With no cookie, and 3WHS not yet completed, return -1 with errno =
    EINPROGRESS.
    No MSG_FASTOPEN flag is needed.

  read()
    Return -1 with errno = EWOULDBLOCK/EAGAIN if connect() is called but
    write() is not called yet.
    Return -1 with errno = EWOULDBLOCK/EAGAIN if connection is
    established but no msg is received yet.
    Return number of bytes read if socket is established and there is
    msg received.

The new API simplifies life for applications that always perform a write()
immediately after a successful connect(). Such applications can now take
advantage of Fast Open by merely making one new setsockopt() call at the time
of creating the socket. Nothing else about the application's socket call
sequence needs to change.

BPF tracepoints

This set adds tracepoints to BPF for better introspection and
debugging. The first two patches are prerequisite for the actual
third patch that adds the tracepoints. I think the first two are
small and straight forward enough that they could ideally go via
net-next, but I'm also open to other suggestions on how to route
them in case that's not applicable (it would reduce potential
merge conflicts on BPF side, though). For details, please see
individual patches.

This work adds a number of tracepoints to paths that are either
considered slow-path or exception-like states, where monitoring or
inspecting them would be desirable.

For bpf(2) syscall, tracepoints have been placed for main commands
when they succeed. In XDP case, tracepoint is for exceptions, that
is, f.e. on abnormal BPF program exit such as unknown or XDP_ABORTED
return code, or when error occurs during XDP_TX action and the packet
could not be forwarded.

Both have been split into separate event headers, and can be further
extended. Worst case, if they unexpectedly should get into our way in
future, they can also removed [1]. Of course, these tracepoints (like
any other) can be analyzed by eBPF itself, etc. Example output:

tcp_add_backlog() can use skb_condense() helper to get better
gains and less SKB_TRUESIZE() magic. This only happens when socket
backlog has to be used.

Some attacks involve specially crafted out of order tiny TCP packets,
clogging the ofo queue of (many) sockets.
Then later, expensive collapse happens, trying to copy all these skbs
into single ones.
This unfortunately does not work if each skb has no neighbor in TCP
sequence order.

By using skb_condense() if the skb could not be coalesced to a prior
one, we defeat these kind of threats, potentially saving 4K per skb
(or more, since this is one page fragment).

A typical NAPI driver allocates gro packets with GRO_MAX_HEAD bytes
in skb->head, meaning the copy done by skb_condense() is limited to
about 200 bytes.

mlx5-updates-2017-24-01

The first seven patches from Or Gerlitz in this series further enhances
the mlx5 SRIOV switchdev mode to support offloading IPv6 tunnels using the
TC tunnel key set (encap) and unset (decap) actions.

Or Gerlitz says:
========================
As part of doing this change, few cleanups are done in the IPv4 code,
later we move to use the full tunnel key info provided to the driver as
the key for our internal hashing which is used to identify cases where
the same tunnel is used for encapsulating multiple flows. As done in the
IPv4 case, the control path for offloading IPv6 tunnels uses route/neigh
lookups and construction of the IPv6 tunnel headers on the encap path and
matching on the outer hears in the decap path.

The last patch of the series enlarges the HW FDB size for the switchdev mode,
so it has now room to contain offloaded flows as many as min(max number
of HW flow counters supported, max HW table size supported).
========================

Next to Or's series you can find several patches handling several topics.

From Mohamad, add support for SRIOV VF min rate guarantee by using the
TSAR BW share weights mechanism.

From Or, Two patches to enable Eth VFs to query their min-inline value for
