====================
pull-request: bpf 2018-03-08

The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net* tree.

The main changes are:

1) Fix various BPF helpers which adjust the skb and its GSO information
   with regards to SCTP GSO. The latter is a special case where gso_size
   is of value GSO_BY_FRAGS, so mangling that will end up corrupting
   the skb, thus bail out when seeing SCTP GSO packets, from Daniel(s).

2) Fix a compilation error in bpftool where BPF_FS_MAGIC is not defined
   due to too old kernel headers in the system, from Jiri.

3) Increase the number of x64 JIT passes in order to allow larger images
   to converge instead of punting them to interpreter or having them
   rejected when the interpreter is not built into the kernel, from Daniel.

They're very hard to use properly as they do not consider the
GSO_BY_FRAGS case. Code should use skb_gso_validate_network_len
and skb_gso_validate_mac_len as they do consider this case.

Make the seglen functions static, which stops people using them
outside of skbuff.c

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the network
length (L3 headers + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small
enough to fit within a given MTU?

skb_gso_validate_mtu gives you the answer to that question. However,
we recently added to add a way to validate the MAC length of a split GSO
skb (L2+L3+L4+payload), and the names get confusing, so rename
skb_gso_validate_mtu to skb_gso_validate_network_len

SCTP GSO skbs have a gso_size of GSO_BY_FRAGS, so any sort of
unconditionally mangling of that will result in nonsense value
and would corrupt the skb later on.

Therefore, i) add two helpers skb_increase_gso_size() and
skb_decrease_gso_size() that would throw a one time warning and
bail out for such skbs and ii) refuse and return early with an
error in those BPF helpers that are affected. We do need to bail
out as early as possible from there before any changes on the
skb have been performed.

If you take a GSO skb, and split it into packets, will the MAC
length (L2 + L3 + L4 headers + payload) of those packets be small
enough to fit within a given length?

Move skb_gso_mac_seglen() to skbuff.h with other related functions
like skb_gso_network_seglen() so we can use it, and then create
skb_gso_validate_mac_len to do the full calculation.

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro:
 "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates
  the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as
  'make -&gt;poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local
  variables used to hold the future return value'.

  Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN
  misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is
  low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. -&gt;poll() instance
  deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those
  in this series - it's large enough as it is.

  Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and
  eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were
  equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are
  arch-independent, but POLL### are not.

  The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from
  the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them
  in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this
  is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll()
  work on all architectures.

  As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and
  it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other
  architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered
  at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all
  architectures"

<title>flow_dissector: dissect tunnel info outside __skb_flow_dissect()</title>

<id>62b32379fd124fea521484ba7e220d8a449f0b59</id>
<content type='text'>
Move dissection of tunnel info to outside of the main flow dissection
function, __skb_flow_dissect(). The sole user of this feature, the flower
classifier, is updated to call tunnel info dissection directly, using
skb_flow_dissect_tunnel_info().

This results in a slightly less complex implementation of
__skb_flow_dissect(), in particular removing logic from that call path
which is not used by the majority of users. The expense of this is borne by
the flower classifier which now has to make an extra call for tunnel info
dissection.

This patch should not result in any behavioural change.
