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 ->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.

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.

Merge branch 'tipc-tracepoints'

Tuong Lien says:

====================
tipc: tracepoints and trace_events in TIPC

The patch series is the first step of introducing a tracing framework in
TIPC, which will assist in collecting complete & plentiful data for post
analysis, even in the case of a single failure occurrence e.g. when the
failure is unreproducible.

The tracing code in TIPC utilizes the powerful kernel tracepoints, trace
events features along with particular dump functions to trace the TIPC
object data and events (incl. bearer, link, socket, node, etc.).

The tracing code should generate zero-load to TIPC when the trace events
are not enabled.

tipc: add trace_events for tipc socket

trace_tipc_sk_sendstream()

trace_tipc_sk_drop_msg()
trace_tipc_sk_release()
trace_tipc_sk_shutdown()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit1()
trace_tipc_sk_overlimit2()

Also, enables the traces for the following cases:
- When user creates a TIPC socket;
- When user calls poll() on TIPC socket;
- When user sends a dgram/mcast/stream message.
- When a message is put into the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is released from the socket 'sk_receive_queue';
- When a message is rejected (e.g. due to no port, invalid, etc.);
- When a message is dropped (e.g. due to wrong message type);
- When socket is released;
- When socket is shutdown;
- When socket rcvq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When socket rcvq + bklq's allocation is overlimit (> 90%);
- When the 'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' issue happens;

Note:
a) All the socket traces are designed to be able to trace on a specific
socket by either using the 'event filtering' feature on a known socket
'portid' value or the sysctl file:

/proc/sys/net/tipc/sk_filter

The file determines a 'tuple' for what socket should be traced:

(portid, sock type, name type, name lower, name upper)

where:
+ 'portid' is the socket portid generated at socket creating, can be
found in the trace outputs or the 'tipc socket list' command printouts;
+ 'sock type' is the socket type (1 = SOCK_TREAM, ...);
+ 'name type', 'name lower' and 'name upper' are the service name being
connected to or published by the socket.

Value '0' means 'ANY', the default tuple value is (0, 0, 0, 0, 0) i.e.
the traces happen for every sockets with no filter.

b) The 'tipc_sk_overlimit1/2' event is also a conditional trace_event
which happens when the socket receive queue (and backlog queue) is
about to be overloaded, when the queue allocation is > 90%. Then, when
the trace is enabled, the last skbs leading to the TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2
issue can be traced.

The trace event is designed as an 'upper watermark' notification that
the other traces (e.g. 'tipc_sk_advance_rx' vs 'tipc_sk_filter_rcv') or
actions can be triggerred in the meanwhile to see what is going on with
the socket queue.

In addition, the 'trace_tipc_sk_dump()' is also placed at the
'TIPC_ERR_OVERLOAD/2' case, so the socket and last skb can be dumped
for post-analysis.

tipc: add trace_events for tipc link

trace_tipc_link_fsm()

tipc: add trace_events for tipc link

The commit adds the new trace_events for TIPC link object:

trace_tipc_link_timeout()
trace_tipc_link_fsm()
trace_tipc_link_reset()
trace_tipc_link_too_silent()
trace_tipc_link_retrans()
trace_tipc_link_bc_ack()
trace_tipc_link_conges()

And the traces for PROTOCOL messages at building and receiving:

trace_tipc_proto_build()
trace_tipc_proto_rcv()

Note:
a) The 'tipc_link_too_silent' event will only happen when the
'silent_intv_cnt' is about to reach the 'abort_limit' value (and the
event is enabled). The benefit for this kind of event is that we can
get an early indication about TIPC link loss issue due to timeout, then
can do some necessary actions for troubleshooting.

For example: To trigger the 'tipc_proto_rcv' when the 'too_silent'
event occurs:

echo 'enable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \
events/tipc/tipc_link_too_silent/trigger

And disable it when TIPC link is reset:

echo 'disable_event:tipc:tipc_proto_rcv' > \
events/tipc/tipc_link_reset/trigger

b) The 'tipc_link_retrans' or 'tipc_link_bc_ack' event is useful to
trace TIPC retransmission issues.

In addition, the commit adds the 'trace_tipc_list/link_dump()' at the
'retransmission failure' case. Then, if the issue occurs, the link
'transmq' along with the link data can be dumped for post-analysis.
These dump events should be enabled by default since it will only take
effect when the failure happens.

The same approach is also applied for the faulty case that the
validation of protocol message is failed.

tipc: enable tracepoints in tipc

As for the sake of debugging/tracing, the commit enables tracepoints in
TIPC along with some general trace_events as shown below. It also
defines some 'tipc_*_dump()' functions that allow to dump TIPC object
data whenever needed, that is, for general debug purposes, ie. not just
for the trace_events.

The following trace_events are now available:

- trace_tipc_skb_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC msg & skb data,
e.g. message type, user, droppable, skb truesize, cloned skb, etc.

- trace_tipc_list_dump(): allows to trace and dump any TIPC buffers or
queues, e.g. TIPC link transmq, socket receive queue, etc.

- trace_tipc_sk_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC socket data, e.g.
sk state, sk type, connection type, rmem_alloc, socket queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_link_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC link data, e.g.
link state, silent_intv_cnt, gap, bc_gap, link queues, etc.

- trace_tipc_node_dump(): allows to trace and dump TIPC node data, e.g.
node state, active links, capabilities, link entries, etc.

How to use:
Put the trace functions at any places where we want to dump TIPC data
or events.

Note:
a) The dump functions will generate raw data only, that is, to offload
the trace event's processing, it can require a tool or script to parse
the data but this should be simple.

b) The trace_tipc_*_dump() should be reserved for a failure cases only
(e.g. the retransmission failure case) or where we do not expect to
happen too often, then we can consider enabling these events by default
since they will almost not take any effects under normal conditions,
but once the rare condition or failure occurs, we get the dumped data
fully for post-analysis.

For other trace purposes, we can reuse these trace classes as template
but different events.

c) A trace_event is only effective when we enable it. To enable the
TIPC trace_events, echo 1 to 'enable' files in the events/tipc/
directory in the 'debugfs' file system. Normally, they are located at:

/sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/

For example:

To enable the tipc_link_dump event:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/tipc_link_dump/enable

To enable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To collect the trace data:

cat trace

or

cat trace_pipe > /trace.out &

To disable all the TIPC trace_events:

echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/tipc/enable

To clear the trace buffer:

echo > trace

d) Like the other trace_events, the feature like 'filter' or 'trigger'
is also usable for the tipc trace_events.
