Matt Carlson 882e9793fa tg3: Add MDIO bus address assignments
The 5717 is a dual port chip that has a shared MDIO bus design.  While
it is impossible for one function to interface with the wrong phy, that
function still needs to know which MDIO bus address to use when
interfacing with its own phy.  This patch adds code to determine which
MDIO bus address to use.

After commit 2b85a34e91
(net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx)
sk_free() frees socks conditionally and depends
on sk_wmem_alloc being set e.g. in sock_init_data(). But in some
cases sk_free() is called earlier, usually after other alloc errors.

Fix is to move sk_wmem_alloc initialization from sock_init_data()
to sk_alloc() itself.

Mallikarjuna R Chilakala c3c7432741 ixgbe: Patch to fix 82599 multispeed fiber link issues when driver is loaded without any cable and reconnecting it to 1G partner
In 82599 multi speed fiber case when driver is loaded without any
cable and reconnecting the cable with a 1G partner does not bring

at 10G & 1G and then try to re-establish the link at highest speed 10G
and thereby changing autoneg_advertised value to highest speed 10G.
After connecting back the cable to a 1G link partner we never try 1G
as autoneg advertised value is changed to link at 10G only. The
following patch fixes the issue by properly initializing the
autoneg_advertised value just before exiting from link setup routine.

Graham, David fd38d7a0a0 e1000: Fix for e1000 kills IPMI on a tagged vlan.
Enabling VLAN filters (VFE) when the primary interface is brought up
(per commit 78ed11a) has caused problems for some users who manage
their systems using IPMI over a VLAN. This is because when the driver
enables the VLAN filter, this same filter table is enabled for the
management channel, and the table is initially empty, which means that
the IPMI/VLAN packets are filtered out and not received by the BMC.
This is a problem only on e1000 class adapters, as it is only
on e1000 that the filter table is common to the management and host
streams.

With this change, filtering is only enabled when one or more host VLANs
exist, and is disabled when the last host VLAN is removed. VLAN filtering
is always disabled when the primary interface is in promiscuous mode,
and will be (re)enabled if VLANs exist when the interface exits
promiscuous mode.

Note that this does not completely resolve the issue for those using VLAN
management, because if the host adds a VLAN, then the above problem
occurs when that VLAN is enabled. However, it does mean the there is no
problem for configurations where management is on a VLAN and the host is
not.

A complete solution to this issue would require further driver changes.
The driver would need to discover if (and which) management VLANs are
active before enabling VLAN filtering, so that it could ensure that the
managed VLANs are included in the VLAN filter table. This discovery
requires that the BMC identifies its VLAN in registers accessible
to the driver, and at least on Dell PE2850 systems the BMC does not
identify its VLAN to allow such discovery. Intel is pursuing this issue
with the BMC vendor.

Damian Lukowski 6fa12c8503 Revert Backoff [v3]: Calculate TCP's connection close threshold as a time value.
RFC 1122 specifies two threshold values R1 and R2 for connection timeouts,
which may represent a number of allowed retransmissions or a timeout value.
Currently linux uses sysctl_tcp_retries{1,2} to specify the thresholds
in number of allowed retransmissions.

For any desired threshold R2 (by means of time) one can specify tcp_retries2
(by means of number of retransmissions) such that TCP will not time out
earlier than R2. This is the case, because the RTO schedule follows a fixed
pattern, namely exponential backoff.

However, the RTO behaviour is not predictable any more if RTO backoffs can be
reverted, as it is the case in the draft
"Make TCP more Robust to Long Connectivity Disruptions"
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-zimmermann-tcp-lcd).

In the worst case TCP would time out a connection after 3.2 seconds, if the
initial RTO equaled MIN_RTO and each backoff has been reverted.

This patch introduces a function retransmits_timed_out(N),
which calculates the timeout of a TCP connection, assuming an initial
RTO of MIN_RTO and N unsuccessful, exponentially backed-off retransmissions.

Whenever timeout decisions are made by comparing the retransmission counter
to some value N, this function can be used, instead.

The meaning of tcp_retries2 will be changed, as many more RTO retransmissions
can occur than the value indicates. However, it yields a timeout which is
similar to the one of an unpatched, exponentially backing off TCP in the same
scenario. As no application could rely on an RTO greater than MIN_RTO, there
should be no risk of a regression.

Damian Lukowski f1ecd5d9e7 Revert Backoff [v3]: Revert RTO on ICMP destination unreachable
Here, an ICMP host/network unreachable message, whose payload fits to
TCP's SND.UNA, is taken as an indication that the RTO retransmission has
not been lost due to congestion, but because of a route failure
somewhere along the path.
With true congestion, a router won't trigger such a message and the
patched TCP will operate as standard TCP.

This patch reverts one RTO backoff, if an ICMP host/network unreachable
message, whose payload fits to TCP's SND.UNA, arrives.
Based on the new RTO, the retransmission timer is reset to reflect the
remaining time, or - if the revert clocked out the timer - a retransmission
is sent out immediately.
Backoffs are only reverted, if TCP is in RTO loss recovery, i.e. if
there have been retransmissions and reversible backoffs, already.

Changes from v2:
1) Renaming of skb in tcp_v4_err() moved to another patch.
2) Reintroduced tcp_bound_rto() and __tcp_set_rto().

Yi Zou 6ee1652051 ixgbe: Add support for dcbnl_rtnl_ops.setapp/getapp
Add support for dcbnl_rtnl_ops.setapp/getapp to set or get the current user
priority bitmap for the given application protocol. Currently, 82599 only
supports setapp/getapp for Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) protocol.

Yi Zou 579496865c dcbnl: Add implementations of dcbnl setapp/getapp commands
Implements the dcbnl netlink setapp/getapp pair. When a setapp/getapp
is received, dcbnl would just pass on to dcbnl_rtnl_op.setapp/getapp
that are supposed to be implemented by the low level drivers.

Yi Zou 7114323b17 dcbnl: Add support for setapp/getapp to netdev dcbnl_rtnl_ops
Adds support of dcbnl setapp/getapp to dcbnl_rtnl_ops in netdev to allow
LLDs to implement their corresponding dcbnl setapp/getapp ops to support
the IEEE 802.1Q DCBX setapp/getapp commands.

Yi Zou 0f6f290259 dcbnl: Add support for setapp/getapp commands to dcbnl
This patch adds dcbnl command definitions to support setapp/getapp
functionality from the IEEE 802.1Qaz Data Center Bridging Capability
Exchange protocol (DCBX) specification. Section 3.3 defines the
application protocol and its 802.1p user priority in DCBX, which is
implemented here as a pair of setapp/getapp commands in the kernel
dcbnl for setting and retrieving the user priority for an given
application protocol. The protocol is identified by the combination of
an id and an idtype. Currently, when idtype is 0, the corresponding
id gives the ether type of this protocol, e.g., for FCoE, it will be
0x8906; when idtype is 1, then the corresponding id gives the TCP or
UDP port number.

For more information regarding DCBX spec., please refer to the following:
