[ Upstream commit dd6b9c2c332b40f142740d1b11fb77c653ff98ea ]

This patch intoduces a slight adjustment for macvlan to address the fact
that in source mode I was seeing two copies of any packet addressed to the
macvlan interface being delivered where there should have been only one.

The issue appears to be that one copy was delivered based on the source MAC
address and then the second copy was being delivered based on the
destination MAC address. To fix it I am just treating a unicast address
match as though it is not a match since source based macvlan isn't supposed
to be matching based on the destination MAC anyway.

[ Upstream commit f6478218e6edc2a587b8f132f66373baa7b2497c ]

When a parent macvlan device is destroyed we end up purging its
broadcast queue without dropping the device reference count on
the packet source device.  This causes the source device to linger.

This patch drops that reference count.

When dev_set_promiscuity failed in macvlan_open, it always invokes
dev_set_allmulti without checking if necessary.
Now check the IFF_ALLMULTI flag firstly before rollback the multicast
setting in the error handler.

When there is no existing macvlan port in lowdev, one new macvlan port
would be created. But it doesn't be destoried when something failed later.
It casues some memleak.

Now add one flag to indicate if new macvlan port is created.

<title>net: remove type_check from dev_get_nest_level()</title>

<content type='text'>
The idea for type_check in dev_get_nest_level() was to count the number
of nested devices of the same type (currently, only macvlan or vlan
devices).
This prevented the false positive lockdep warning on configurations such
as:

eth0 &lt;--- macvlan0 &lt;--- vlan0 &lt;--- macvlan1

However, this doesn't prevent a warning on a configuration such as:

eth0 &lt;--- macvlan0 &lt;--- vlan0
eth1 &lt;--- vlan1 &lt;--- macvlan1

In this case, all the locks end up with a nesting subclass of 1, so
lockdep thinks that there is still a deadlock:

- in the first case we have (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) and then
  take (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1)
- in the second case, we have (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) and then
  take (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1)

By removing the linktype check in dev_get_nest_level() and always
incrementing the nesting depth, lockdep considers this configuration
valid.

Currently we always queue a multicast packet for further processing,
even if none of the macvlan devices are subscribed to the address.

This patch optimises this by adding a global multicast filter for
a macvlan_port.

Note that this patch doesn't handle the broadcast addresses of the
individual macvlan devices correctly, if they are not all identical
to vlan-&gt;lowerdev.  However, this is already broken because there
is no mechanism in place to update the individual multicast filters
when you change the broadcast address.

If someone cares enough they should fix this by collecting all
broadcast addresses for a macvlan as we do for multicast and unicast.

When we postpone a broadcast packet we save the source port in
the skb if it is local.  However, the source port can disappear
before we get a chance to process the packet.

This patch fixes this by holding a ref count on the netdev.

It also delays the skb-&gt;cb modification until after we allocate
the new skb as you should not modify shared skbs.

If macvlan_common_newlink fails in register_netdevice after macvlan_init
then it decrements port-&gt;count twice, first in macvlan_uninit (from
register_netdevice or rollback_registered) and then again in
macvlan_common_newlink.
A similar problem may exist in the ipvlan driver.
This patch consolidates modifications to port-&gt;count into macvlan_init
and macvlan_uninit (thanks to Eric Biederman for suggesting this approach).

v3: remove macvtap specific bits.
