[ Upstream commit 11df27f7fdf02cc2bb354358ad482e1fdd690589 ]

Specify the interface through which packets should be transmitted so
that the test will pass regardless of the libnet version against which
mausezahn is linked.

[ Upstream commit da64ae2d35d3673233f0403b035d4c6acbf71965 ]

Use three-way comparison for address components to avoid integer
wraparound in the result of xfrm_policy_addr_delta(). This ensures
that the search trees are built and traversed correctly.

Treat IPv4 and IPv6 similarly by returning 0 when prefixlen == 0.
Prefix /0 has only one equivalence class.

<title>selftests: xfrm: fix test return value override issue in xfrm_policy.sh</title>

[ Upstream commit f6e9ceb7a7fc321a31a9dde93a99b7b4b016a3b3 ]

When running this xfrm_policy.sh test script, even with some cases
marked as FAIL, the overall test result will still be PASS:

$ sudo ./xfrm_policy.sh
PASS: policy before exception matches
FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions)
PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions)
PASS: policy matches (exceptions)
FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies)
PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies)
PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies)
FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes)
PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes)
PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hresh changes)
FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3)
PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3)
PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after hthresh change in ns3)
FAIL: expected ping to .254 to fail (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal)
PASS: direct policy matches (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal)
PASS: policy matches (exceptions and block policies after htresh change to normal)
PASS: policies with repeated htresh change
$ echo $?
0

This is because the $lret in check_xfrm() is not a local variable.
Therefore when a test failed in check_exceptions(), the non-zero $lret
will later get reset to 0 when the next test calls check_xfrm().

With this fix, the final return value will be 1. Make it easier for
testers to spot this failure.

commit 5501e9229a80d95a1ea68609f44c447a75d23ed5 upstream.

In some cases, the number of cpus (nr_cpus_online) is confused with the
maximum cpu number (nr_cpus_avail), which results in the error in the
example below:

Example on system with 8 cpus:

 Before:
   # echo 0 &gt; /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
   # ./perf record --kcore -e intel_pt// taskset --cpu-list 7 uname
   Linux
   [ perf record: Woken up 1 times to write data ]
   [ perf record: Captured and wrote 0.147 MB perf.data ]
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   Requested CPU 7 too large. Consider raising MAX_NR_CPUS
   0x25908 [0x8]: failed to process type: 68 [Invalid argument]

 After:
   # ./perf script --itrace=e
   #

<title>bpftool: Fix compilation failure for net.o with older glibc</title>

commit 6f02b540d7597f357bc6ee711346761045d4e108 upstream.

For older glibc ~2.17, #include'ing both linux/if.h and net/if.h
fails due to complaints about redefinition of interface flags:

  CC       net.o
In file included from net.c:13:0:
/usr/include/linux/if.h:71:2: error: redeclaration of enumerator ‘IFF_UP’
  IFF_UP    = 1&lt;&lt;0,  /* sysfs */
  ^
/usr/include/net/if.h:44:5: note: previous definition of ‘IFF_UP’ was here
     IFF_UP = 0x1,  /* Interface is up.  */

The issue was fixed in kernel headers in [1], but since compilation
of net.c picks up system headers the problem can recur.

Dropping #include &lt;linux/if.h&gt; resolves the issue and it is
not needed for compilation anyhow.

Dropping #include &lt;linux/if.h&gt; resolves the issue and it is
not needed for compilation anyhow.

[ Upstream commit 5316a7c0130acf09bfc8bb0092407006010fcccc ]

Adds new 2 new tests to the PTMU script: pmtu_ipv4/6_route_change.

These tests explicitly test for a recently discovered problem in the
IPv6 routing framework where PMTU exceptions were not properly released
when replacing a route via "ip route change ...".

After creating PMTU exceptions, the route from the device A to R1 will be
replaced with a new route, then device A will be deleted. If the PMTU
exceptions were properly cleaned up by the kernel, this device deletion
will succeed. Otherwise, the unregistration of the device will stall, and
messages such as the following will be logged in dmesg:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for veth_A-R1 to become free. Usage count = 4

commit 7ddcdea5b54492f54700f427f58690cf1e187e5e upstream.

To pick up the changes in:

  a85cbe6159ffc973 ("uapi: move constants from &lt;linux/kernel.h&gt; to &lt;linux/const.h&gt;")

That causes no changes in tooling, just addresses this perf build
warning:

  Warning: Kernel ABI header at 'tools/include/uapi/linux/const.h' differs from latest version at 'include/uapi/linux/const.h'
  diff -u tools/include/uapi/linux/const.h include/uapi/linux/const.h
