====================
pull-request: bpf 2019-03-16

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

The main changes are:

1) Fix a umem memory leak on cleanup in AF_XDP, from Björn.

2) Fix BTF to properly resolve forward-declared enums into their corresponding
   full enum definition types during deduplication, from Andrii.

3) Fix libbpf to reject invalid flags in xsk_socket__create(), from Magnus.

4) Fix accessing invalid pointer returned from bpf_tcp_sock() and
   bpf_sk_fullsock() after bpf_sk_release() was called, from Martin.

5) Fix generation of load/store DW instructions in PPC JIT, from Naveen.

6) Various fixes in BPF helper function documentation in bpf.h UAPI header
   used to bpf-helpers(7) man page, from Quentin.

7) Fix segfault in BPF test_progs when prog loading failed, from Yonghong.

Yauheni Kaliuta pointed out that PTR_TO_STACK store/load verifier test
was failing on powerpc64 BE, and rightfully indicated that the PPC_LD()
macro is not masking away the last two bits of the offset per the ISA,
resulting in the generation of 'lwa' instruction instead of the intended
'ld' instruction.

Segher also pointed out that we can't simply mask away the last two bits
as that will result in loading/storing from/to a memory location that
was not intended.

This patch addresses this by using ldx/stdx if the offset is not
word-aligned. We load the offset into a temporary register (TMP_REG_2)
and use that as the index register in a subsequent ldx/stdx. We fix
PPC_LD() macro to mask off the last two bits, but enhance PPC_BPF_LL()
and PPC_BPF_STL() to factor in the offset value and generate the proper
instruction sequence. We also convert all existing users of PPC_LD() and
PPC_STD() to use these macros. All existing uses of these macros have
been audited to ensure that TMP_REG_2 can be clobbered.

Pull powerpc updates from Michael Ellerman:
 "Notable changes:

   - Enable THREAD_INFO_IN_TASK to move thread_info off the stack.

   - A big series from Christoph reworking our DMA code to use more of
     the generic infrastructure, as he said:
       "This series switches the powerpc port to use the generic swiotlb
        and noncoherent dma ops, and to use more generic code for the
        coherent direct mapping, as well as removing a lot of dead
        code."

   - Increase our vmalloc space to 512T with the Hash MMU on modern
     CPUs, allowing us to support machines with larger amounts of total
     RAM or distance between nodes.

   - Two series from Christophe, one to optimise TLB miss handlers on
     6xx, and another to optimise the way STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is
     implemented on some 32-bit CPUs.

   - Support for KCOV coverage instrumentation which means we can run
     syzkaller and discover even more bugs in our code.

  And as always many clean-ups, reworks and minor fixes etc.

<id>930d6288a26787d2e7f633705434171a506db9c5</id>
<content type='text'>
This adds emulation support for the following integer instructions:
  * Multiply-Add High Doubleword (maddhd)
  * Multiply-Add High Doubleword Unsigned (maddhdu)
  * Multiply-Add Low Doubleword (maddld)

As suggested by Michael, this uses a raw .long for specifying the
instruction word when using inline assembly to retain compatibility
with older binutils.

This patch implements code-gen for new JMP32 instructions on ppc.

For JMP32 | JSET, instruction encoding for PPC_RLWINM_DOT is added to check
the result of ANDing low 32-bit of operands.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:

 1) New ipset extensions for matching on destination MAC addresses, from
    Stefano Brivio.

 2) Add ipv4 ttl and tos, plus ipv6 flow label and hop limit offloads to
    nfp driver. From Stefano Brivio.

 3) Implement GRO for plain UDP sockets, from Paolo Abeni.

 4) Lots of work from Michał Mirosław to eliminate the VLAN_TAG_PRESENT
    bit so that we could support the entire vlan_tci value.

 5) Rework the IPSEC policy lookups to better optimize more usecases,
    from Florian Westphal.

 6) Infrastructure changes eliminating direct manipulation of SKB lists
    wherever possible, and to always use the appropriate SKB list
    helpers. This work is still ongoing...

 7) Lots of PHY driver and state machine improvements and
    simplifications, from Heiner Kallweit.

 8) Various TSO deferral refinements, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Add ntuple filter support to aquantia driver, from Dmitry Bogdanov.

10) Batch dropping of XDP packets in tuntap, from Jason Wang.

11) Lots of cleanups and improvements to the r8169 driver from Heiner
    Kallweit, including support for -&gt;xmit_more. This driver has been
    getting some much needed love since he started working on it.

12) Lots of new forwarding selftests from Petr Machata.

13) Enable VXLAN learning in mlxsw driver, from Ido Schimmel.

14) Packed ring support for virtio, from Tiwei Bie.

15) Add new Aquantia AQtion USB driver, from Dmitry Bezrukov.

16) Add XDP support to dpaa2-eth driver, from Ioana Ciocoi Radulescu.

17) Implement coalescing on TCP backlog queue, from Eric Dumazet.

18) Implement carrier change in tun driver, from Nicolas Dichtel.

19) Support msg_zerocopy in UDP, from Willem de Bruijn.

20) Significantly improve garbage collection of neighbor objects when
    the table has many PERMANENT entries, from David Ahern.

21) Remove egdev usage from nfp and mlx5, and remove the facility
    completely from the tree as it no longer has any users. From Oz
    Shlomo and others.

22) Add a NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR so that drivers can veto the change and
    therefore abort the operation before the commit phase (which is the
    NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event). From Petr Machata.

23) Add indirect call wrappers to avoid retpoline overhead, and use them
    in the GRO code paths. From Paolo Abeni.

24) Add support for netlink FDB get operations, from Roopa Prabhu.

25) Support bloom filter in mlxsw driver, from Nir Dotan.

26) Add SKB extension infrastructure. This consolidates the handling of
    the auxiliary SKB data used by IPSEC and bridge netfilter, and is
    designed to support the needs to MPTCP which could be integrated in
    the future.

27) Lots of XDP TX optimizations in mlx5 from Tariq Toukan.

12) Lots of new forwarding selftests from Petr Machata.

13) Enable VXLAN learning in mlxsw driver, from Ido Schimmel.

14) Packed ring support for virtio, from Tiwei Bie.

15) Add new Aquantia AQtion USB driver, from Dmitry Bezrukov.

16) Add XDP support to dpaa2-eth driver, from Ioana Ciocoi Radulescu.

17) Implement coalescing on TCP backlog queue, from Eric Dumazet.

18) Implement carrier change in tun driver, from Nicolas Dichtel.

19) Support msg_zerocopy in UDP, from Willem de Bruijn.

20) Significantly improve garbage collection of neighbor objects when
    the table has many PERMANENT entries, from David Ahern.

21) Remove egdev usage from nfp and mlx5, and remove the facility
    completely from the tree as it no longer has any users. From Oz
    Shlomo and others.

22) Add a NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR so that drivers can veto the change and
    therefore abort the operation before the commit phase (which is the
    NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event). From Petr Machata.

23) Add indirect call wrappers to avoid retpoline overhead, and use them
    in the GRO code paths. From Paolo Abeni.

24) Add support for netlink FDB get operations, from Roopa Prabhu.

25) Support bloom filter in mlxsw driver, from Nir Dotan.

26) Add SKB extension infrastructure. This consolidates the handling of
    the auxiliary SKB data used by IPSEC and bridge netfilter, and is
    designed to support the needs to MPTCP which could be integrated in
    the future.

27) Lots of XDP TX optimizations in mlx5 from Tariq Toukan.

Old toolchains don't know about slbfee and break the build, eg:
  {standard input}:37: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `slbfee.'

Fix it by using the macro version. We need to add an underscore
version that takes raw register numbers from the inline asm, rather
than our Rx macros.

Fixes: e15a4fea4dee ("powerpc/64s/hash: Add some SLB debugging tests")
