Conflicts: drivers/net/usb/asix_common.c drivers/net/usb/sr9800.c drivers/net/usb/usbnet.c include/linux/usb/usbnet.h net/ipv4/tcp_ipv4.c net/ipv6/tcp_ipv6.c The TCP conflicts were overlapping changes. In 'net' we added a READ_ONCE() to the socket cached RX route read, whilst in 'net-next' Eric Dumazet touched the surrounding code dealing with how mini sockets are handled. With USB, it's a case of the same bug fix first going into net-next and then I cherry picked it back into net. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-04-02dev: introduce dev_get_iflink()Nicolas Dichtel
The goal of this patch is to prepare the removal of the iflink field. It introduces a new ndo function, which will be implemented by virtual interfaces. There is no functional change into this patch. All readers of iflink field now call dev_get_iflink(). Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-03-31ipvlan: fix check for IP addresses in control pathJiri Benc
When an ipvlan interface is down, its addresses are not on the hash list. Fix checks for existence of addresses not to depend on the hash list, walk through all interface addresses instead.

2015-03-31ipvlan: protect against concurrent link removalJiri Benc
Adding and removing to the 'ipvlans' list is already done using _rcu list operations. Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-03-31ipvlan: fix addr hash list corruptionJiri Benc
When ipvlan interface with IP addresses attached is brought down and then deleted, the assigned addresses are deleted twice from the address hash list, first on the interface down and second on the link deletion. Similarly, when an address is added while the interface is down, it is added second time once the interface is brought up. When the interface is down, the addresses should be kept off the hash list for performance reasons. Ensure this is true, which also fixes the double add problem. To fix the double free, check whether the address is hashed before removing it.

2015-01-30net: mark some potential candidates __read_mostlyDaniel Borkmann
They are all either written once or extremly rarely (e.g. from init code), so we can move them to the .data..read_mostly section. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-01-25ipvlan: fix incorrect usage of IS_ERR() macro in IPv6 code path.Mahesh Bandewar
The ip6_route_output() always returns a valid dst pointer unlike in IPv4 case. So the validation has to be different from the IPv4 path. Correcting that error in this patch. This was picked up by a static checker with a following warning - drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_core.c:380 ipvlan_process_v6_outbound() warn: 'dst' isn't an ERR_PTR Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-11-24ipvlan: Initial check-in of the IPVLAN driver.Mahesh Bandewar
This driver is very similar to the macvlan driver except that it uses L3 on the frame to determine the logical interface while functioning as packet dispatcher. It inherits L2 of the master device hence the packets on wire will have the same L2 for all the packets originating from all virtual devices off of the same master device. This driver was developed keeping the namespace use-case in mind. Hence most of the examples given here take that as the base setup where main-device belongs to the default-ns and virtual devices are assigned to the additional namespaces. The device operates in two different modes and the difference in these two modes in primarily in the TX side. (a) L2 mode : In this mode, the device behaves as a L2 device. TX processing upto L2 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched after that into the main device (default-ns) and queued for xmit. RX processing is simple and all multicast, broadcast (if applicable), and unicast belonging to the address(es) are delivered to the virtual devices. (b) L3 mode : In this mode, the device behaves like a L3 device. TX processing upto L3 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched to the main-device (default-ns) for the L2 processing. Hence the routing table of the default-ns will be used in this mode. RX processins is somewhat similar to the L2 mode except that in this mode only Unicast packets are delivered to the virtual device while main-dev will handle all other packets. The devices can be added using the "ip" command from the iproute2 package - ip link add link <master> <virtual> type ipvlan mode [ l2 | l3 ] Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Cc: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com> Cc: Tim Hockin <thockin@google.com> Cc: Brandon Philips <brandon.philips@coreos.com> Cc: Pavel Emelianov <xemul@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
