Add an IFLA_XDP_FLAGS attribute that can be passed for setting up
XDP along with IFLA_XDP_FD, which eventually allows user space to
implement typical add/replace/delete logic for programs. Right now,
calling into dev_change_xdp_fd() will always replace previous programs.

When passed XDP_FLAGS_UPDATE_IF_NOEXIST, we can handle this more
graceful when requested by returning -EBUSY in case we try to
attach a new program, but we find that another one is already
attached. This will be used by upcoming front-end for iproute2 as
well.

This patch adds basic support for MLDv2 queries, the default is MLDv1
as before. A new multicast option - multicast_mld_version, adds the
ability to change it between 1 and 2 via netlink and sysfs.
The MLD option is disabled if CONFIG_IPV6 is disabled.

<title>net: Update API for VF vlan protocol 802.1ad support</title>

<id>79aab093a0b5370d7fc4e99df75996f4744dc03f</id>
<content type='text'>
Introduce new rtnl UAPI that exposes a list of vlans per VF, giving
the ability for user-space application to specify it for the VF, as an
option to support 802.1ad.
We adjusted IP Link tool to support this option.

For future use cases, the new UAPI supports multiple vlans. For now we
limit the list size to a single vlan in kernel.
Add IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST in addition to IFLA_VF_VLAN to keep backward
compatibility with older versions of IP Link tool.

Add a vlan protocol parameter to the ndo_set_vf_vlan callback.
We kept 802.1Q as the drivers' default vlan protocol.
Suitable ip link tool command examples:
  Set vf vlan protocol 802.1ad:
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad
  Set vf to VST (802.1Q) mode:
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1Q
  Or by omitting the new parameter
    ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100

<title>ipvlan: Introduce l3s mode</title>

<id>4fbae7d83c98c30efcf0a2a2ac55fbb75ef5a1a5</id>
<content type='text'>
In a typical IPvlan L3 setup where master is in default-ns and
each slave is into different (slave) ns. In this setup egress
packet processing for traffic originating from slave-ns will
hit all NF_HOOKs in slave-ns as well as default-ns. However same
is not true for ingress processing. All these NF_HOOKs are
hit only in the slave-ns skipping them in the default-ns.
IPvlan in L3 mode is restrictive and if admins want to deploy
iptables rules in default-ns, this asymmetric data path makes it
impossible to do so.

This patch makes use of the l3_rcv() (added as part of l3mdev
enhancements) to perform input route lookup on RX packets without
changing the skb-&gt;dev and then uses nf_hook at NF_INET_LOCAL_IN
to change the skb-&gt;dev just before handing over skb to L4.

Sets the bpf program represented by fd as an early filter in the rx path
of the netdev. The fd must have been created as BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP.
Providing a negative value as fd clears the program. Getting the fd back
via rtnl is not possible, therefore reading of this value merely
provides a bool whether the program is valid on the link or not.

<title>net: bridge: add support for IGMP/MLD stats and export them via netlink</title>

<id>1080ab95e3c7bdd77870e209aff83c763fdcf439</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch adds stats support for the currently used IGMP/MLD types by the
bridge. The stats are per-port (plus one stat per-bridge) and per-direction
(RX/TX). The stats are exported via netlink via the new linkxstats API
(RTM_GETSTATS). In order to minimize the performance impact, a new option
is used to enable/disable the stats - multicast_stats_enabled, similar to
the recent vlan stats. Also in order to avoid multiple IGMP/MLD type
lookups and checks, we make use of the current "igmp" member of the bridge
private skb-&gt;cb region to record the type on Rx (both host-generated and
external packets pass by multicast_rcv()). We can do that since the igmp
member was used as a boolean and all the valid IGMP/MLD types are positive
values. The normal bridge fast-path is not affected at all, the only
affected paths are the flooding ones and since we make use of the IGMP/MLD
type, we can quickly determine if the packet should be counted using
cache-hot data (cb's igmp member). We add counters for:
* IGMP Queries
* IGMP Leaves
* IGMP v1/v2/v3 reports

* MLD Queries
* MLD Leaves
* MLD v1/v2 reports

These are invaluable when monitoring or debugging complex multicast setups
with bridges.

<content type='text'>
This patch adds support for the IFLA_STATS_LINK_XSTATS_SLAVE attribute
which allows to export per-slave statistics if the master device supports
the linkxstats callback. The attribute is passed down to the linkxstats
callback and it is up to the callback user to use it (an example has been
added to the only current user - the bridge). This allows us to query only
specific slaves of master devices like bridge ports and export only what
we're interested in instead of having to dump all ports and searching only
for a single one. This will be used to export per-port IGMP/MLD stats and
also per-port vlan stats in the future, possibly other statistics as well.
