Pull SCSI target updates from Nicholas Bellinger:
 "Lots of activity this round on performance improvements in target-core
  while benchmarking the prototype scsi-mq initiator code with
  vhost-scsi fabric ports, along with a number of iscsi/iser-target
  improvements and hardening fixes for exception path cases post v3.10
  merge.

  The highlights include:

   - Make persistent reservations APTPL buffer allocated on-demand, and
     drop per t10_reservation buffer.  (grover)
   - Make virtual LUN=0 a NULLIO device, and skip allocation of NULLIO
     device pages (grover)
   - Add transport_cmd_check_stop write_pending bit to avoid extra
     access of -&gt;t_state_lock is WRITE I/O submission fast-path.  (nab)
   - Drop unnecessary CMD_T_DEV_ACTIVE check from
     transport_lun_remove_cmd to avoid extra access of -&gt;t_state_lock in
     release fast-path.  (nab)
   - Avoid extra t_state_lock access in __target_execute_cmd fast-path
     (nab)
   - Drop unnecessary vhost-scsi wait_for_tasks=true usage +
     -&gt;t_state_lock access in release fast-path.  (nab)
   - Convert vhost-scsi to use modern se_cmd-&gt;cmd_kref
     TARGET_SCF_ACK_KREF usage (nab)
   - Add tracepoints for SCSI commands being processed (roland)
   - Refactoring of iscsi-target handling of ISCSI_OP_NOOP +
     ISCSI_OP_TEXT to be transport independent (nab)
   - Add iscsi-target SendTargets=$IQN support for in-band discovery
     (nab)
   - Add iser-target support for in-band discovery (nab + Or)
   - Add iscsi-target demo-mode TPG authentication context support (nab)
   - Fix isert_put_reject payload buffer post (nab)
   - Fix iscsit_add_reject* usage for iser (nab)
   - Fix iscsit_sequence_cmd reject handling for iser (nab)
   - Fix ISCSI_OP_SCSI_TMFUNC handling for iser (nab)
   - Fix session reset bug with RDMA_CM_EVENT_DISCONNECTED (nab)

  The last five iscsi/iser-target items are CC'ed to stable, as they do
  address issues present in v3.10 code.  They are certainly larger than
  I'd like for stable patch set, but are important to ensure proper
  REJECT exception handling in iser-target for 3.10.y"

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
  window.  The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
  this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
  made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
  trickeled in.

  Highlights:

   1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
      handling and context switches.  Allows direct polling of a network
      device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

      Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

      Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
      commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

      From Eliezer Tamir.

   2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
      more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
      addresses.  Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
      Eric Dumazet.

   3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
      Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
      Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

   4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
      Pavel Emelyanov.

   5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
      Rony Efraim.

   6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

   7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
      Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

   8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
      from Cong Wang.

   9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
      Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport.  In particular,
      support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

  10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
      lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code.  From Daniel
      Borkmann.

  11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
      devices.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
      manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
      From Daniel Borkmann.

  13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
      from Johannes Berg.

  14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
      by using an rbtree.  From Eric Dumazet.

  15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
      Cheng.

  16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
      Horman.

  17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
      pointer that's passed into them.  Use this to properly handle
      network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event().  From Jiri
      Pirko and Timo Teräs.

  18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
      Huewe.

  19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
      O(1) calculation instead.  From Eric Dumazet.

  20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
      like ipv4.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From
      Willem de Bruijn.

  23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
      burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead.  Also
      from Eric Dumazet.

  25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
      from Vlad Yasevich.

  26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets.  From Lorenzo Colitti.

  27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
      too, from David Majnemer.

  28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
      to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
 "This is a re-do of the net-next pull request for the current merge
  window.  The only difference from the one I made the other day is that
  this has Eliezer's interface renames and the timeout handling changes
  made based upon your feedback, as well as a few bug fixes that have
  trickeled in.

  Highlights:

   1) Low latency device polling, eliminating the cost of interrupt
      handling and context switches.  Allows direct polling of a network
      device from socket operations, such as recvmsg() and poll().

      Currently ixgbe, mlx4, and bnx2x support this feature.

      Full high level description, performance numbers, and design in
      commit 0a4db187a999 ("Merge branch 'll_poll'")

      From Eliezer Tamir.

   2) With the routing cache removed, ip_check_mc_rcu() gets exercised
      more than ever before in the case where we have lots of multicast
      addresses.  Use a hash table instead of a simple linked list, from
      Eric Dumazet.

   3) Add driver for Atheros CQA98xx 802.11ac wireless devices, from
      Bartosz Markowski, Janusz Dziedzic, Kalle Valo, Marek Kwaczynski,
      Marek Puzyniak, Michal Kazior, and Sujith Manoharan.

   4) Support reporting the TUN device persist flag to userspace, from
      Pavel Emelyanov.

   5) Allow controlling network device VF link state using netlink, from
      Rony Efraim.

   6) Support GRE tunneling in openvswitch, from Pravin B Shelar.

   7) Adjust SOCK_MIN_RCVBUF and SOCK_MIN_SNDBUF for modern times, from
      Daniel Borkmann and Eric Dumazet.

   8) Allow controlling of TCP quickack behavior on a per-route basis,
      from Cong Wang.

   9) Several bug fixes and improvements to vxlan from Stephen
      Hemminger, Pravin B Shelar, and Mike Rapoport.  In particular,
      support receiving on multiple UDP ports.

  10) Major cleanups, particular in the area of debugging and cookie
      lifetime handline, to the SCTP protocol code.  From Daniel
      Borkmann.

  11) Allow packets to cross network namespaces when traversing tunnel
      devices.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  12) Allow monitoring netlink traffic via AF_PACKET sockets, in a
      manner akin to how we monitor real network traffic via ptype_all.
      From Daniel Borkmann.

  13) Several bug fixes and improvements for the new alx device driver,
      from Johannes Berg.

  14) Fix scalability issues in the netem packet scheduler's time queue,
      by using an rbtree.  From Eric Dumazet.

  15) Several bug fixes in TCP loss recovery handling, from Yuchung
      Cheng.

  16) Add support for GSO segmentation of MPLS packets, from Simon
      Horman.

  17) Make network notifiers have a real data type for the opaque
      pointer that's passed into them.  Use this to properly handle
      network device flag changes in arp_netdev_event().  From Jiri
      Pirko and Timo Teräs.

  18) Convert several drivers over to module_pci_driver(), from Peter
      Huewe.

  19) tcp_fixup_rcvbuf() can loop 500 times over loopback, just use a
      O(1) calculation instead.  From Eric Dumazet.

  20) Support setting of explicit tunnel peer addresses in ipv6, just
      like ipv4.  From Nicolas Dichtel.

  21) Protect x86 BPF JIT against spraying attacks, from Eric Dumazet.

  22) Prevent a single high rate flow from overruning an individual cpu
      during RX packet processing via selective flow shedding.  From
      Willem de Bruijn.

  23) Don't use spinlocks in TCP md5 signing fast paths, from Eric
      Dumazet.

  24) Don't just drop GSO packets which are above the TBF scheduler's
      burst limit, chop them up so they are in-bounds instead.  Also
      from Eric Dumazet.

  25) VLAN offloads are missed when configured on top of a bridge, fix
      from Vlad Yasevich.

  26) Support IPV6 in ping sockets.  From Lorenzo Colitti.

  27) Receive flow steering targets should be updated at poll() time
      too, from David Majnemer.

  28) Fix several corner case regressions in PMTU/redirect handling due
      to the routing cache removal, from Timo Teräs.

  29) We have to be mindful of ipv4 mapped ipv6 sockets in
      upd_v6_push_pending_frames().  From Hannes Frederic Sowa.

  30) Fix L2TP sequence number handling bugs, from James Chapman."

<title>IB/uverbs: Use get_unused_fd_flags(O_CLOEXEC) instead of get_unused_fd()</title>

<id>da183c7af8444cb2c1beedaa498a9359f19ff665</id>
<content type='text'>
The macro get_unused_fd() is used to allocate a file descriptor with
default flags.  Those default flags (0) can be "unsafe": O_CLOEXEC must
be used by default to not leak file descriptor across exec().

Replace calls to get_unused_fd() in uverbs with calls to
get_unused_fd_flags(O_CLOEXEC).  Inheriting uverbs fds across exec()
cannot be used to do anything useful.

Based on a patch/suggestion from Yann Droneaud &lt;ydroneaud@opteya.com&gt;.
