    net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation.

    There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
    network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
    to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
    with a well known name.

    We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
    for the new device exists through the life of the call.  To keep
    that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
    logic into rtnl_link_get_net.

    In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
    to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
    device source network namespace.

Where apparently I forgot to add error handling to the path where we create
a new network device in a new network namespace, and pass in an invalid pid.

Kurt Van Dijck 6d3a9a6854 net: fix validate_link_af in rtnetlink core
I'm testing an API that uses IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute.
In the rtnetlink core , the set_link_af() member
of the rtnl_af_ops struct receives the nested attribute
(as I expected), but the validate_link_af() member
receives the parent attribute.
IMO, this patch fixes this.

Patrick McHardy ffa934f192 rtnetlink: fix link attribute validation with IFLA_GROUP
rtnl_group_changelink() is invoked by rtnl_newlink() before the link
attributes have been validated. Additionally the group changes are
performed even if NLM_F_CREATE is specified and a new link is
created, while more reasonable semantics would be to set the group
value on the newly created link.

Fix both problems by moving the rtnl_group_changelink() invocation
down to the handling of non-existant links without NLM_F_CREATE()
and add a dev_set_group() call to rtnl_create_link().

Due to NLM_F_DUMP is composed of two bits, NLM_F_ROOT | NLM_F_MATCH,
when doing "if (x & NLM_F_DUMP)", it tests for _either_ of the bits
being set. Because NLM_F_MATCH's value overlaps with NLM_F_EXCL,
non-dump requests with NLM_F_EXCL set are mistaken as dump requests.

Substitute the condition to test for _all_ bits being set.

Thomas Graf cf7afbfeb8 rtnl: make link af-specific updates atomic
As David pointed out correctly, updates to af-specific attributes
are currently not atomic. If multiple changes are requested and
one of them fails, previous updates may have been applied already
leaving the link behind in a undefined state.

This patch splits the function parse_link_af() into two functions
validate_link_af() and set_link_at(). validate_link_af() is placed
to validate_linkmsg() check for errors as early as possible before
any changes to the link have been made. set_link_af() is called to
commit the changes later.

This method is not fail proof, while it is currently sufficient
to make set_link_af() inerrable and thus 100% atomic, the
validation function method will not be able to detect all error
scenarios in the future, there will likely always be errors
depending on states which are f.e. not protected by rtnl_mutex
and thus may change between validation and setting.

Also, instead of silently ignoring unknown address families and
config blocks for address families which did not register a set
function the errors EAFNOSUPPORT respectively EOPNOSUPPORT are
returned to avoid comitting 4 out of 5 update requests without
notifying the user.

Thomas Graf f8ff182c71 rtnetlink: Link address family API
Each net_device contains address family specific data such as
per device settings and statistics. We already expose this data
via procfs/sysfs and partially netlink.

The netlink method requires the requester to send one RTM_GETLINK
request for each address family it wishes to receive data of
and then merge this data itself.

This patch implements a new API which combines all address family
specific link data in a new netlink attribute IFLA_AF_SPEC.
IFLA_AF_SPEC contains a sequence of nested attributes, one for each
address family which in turn defines the structure of its own
attribute. Example:

   [IFLA_AF_SPEC] = {
       [AF_INET] = {
           [IFLA_INET_CONF] = ...,
       },
       [AF_INET6] = {
           [IFLA_INET6_FLAGS] = ...,
           [IFLA_INET6_CONF] = ...,
       }
   }

The API also allows for address families to implement a function
which parses the IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute sent by userspace to
implement address family specific link options.

Thomas Graf 369cf77a6a rtnetlink: Fix message size calculation for link messages
nlmsg_total_size() calculates the length of a netlink message
including header and alignment. nla_total_size() calculates the
space an individual attribute consumes which was meant to be used
in this context.

Also, ensure to account for the attribute header for the
IFLA_INFO_XSTATS attribute as implementations of get_xstats_size()
seem to assume that we do so.

The addition of two message headers minus the missing attribute
header resulted in a calculated message size that was larger than
required. Therefore we never risked running out of skb tailroom.

Eric Dumazet 28172739f0 net: fix 64 bit counters on 32 bit arches
There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.

One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().

Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)

Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

Ben Hutchings be1f3c2c02 net: Enable 64-bit net device statistics on 32-bit architectures
Use struct rtnl_link_stats64 as the statistics structure.

On 32-bit architectures, insert 32 bits of padding after/before each
field of struct net_device_stats to make its layout compatible with
struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Add an anonymous union in net_device; move
stats into the union and add struct rtnl_link_stats64 stats64.

Add net_device_ops::ndo_get_stats64, implementations of which will
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Drivers that implement
this operation must not update the structure asynchronously.

Change dev_get_stats() to call ndo_get_stats64 if available, and to
return a pointer to struct rtnl_link_stats64.  Change callers of
dev_get_stats() accordingly.

	Author:  Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org>
	Date:    Sun May 16 01:05:45 2010 -0700
	Subject: rtnetlink: make SR-IOV VF interface symmetric

adds broken error handling to do_setlink() in net/core/rtnetlink.c.  The
problem is the following chunk of code:

	if (tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST]) {
		struct nlattr *attr;
		int rem;
		nla_for_each_nested(attr, tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST], rem) {
			if (nla_type(attr) != IFLA_VF_INFO)
  ---->				goto errout;
			err = do_setvfinfo(dev, attr);
			if (err < 0)
				goto errout;
			modified = 1;
		}
	}

Scott Feldman 57b610805c net: Add netlink support for virtual port management (was iovnl)
Add new netdev ops ndo_{set|get}_vf_port to allow setting of
port-profile on a netdev interface.  Extends netlink socket RTM_SETLINK/
RTM_GETLINK with two new sub msgs called IFLA_VF_PORTS and IFLA_PORT_SELF
(added to end of IFLA_cmd list).  These are both nested atrtibutes
using this layout:

              [IFLA_NUM_VF]
              [IFLA_VF_PORTS]
                      [IFLA_VF_PORT]
                              [IFLA_PORT_*], ...
                      [IFLA_VF_PORT]
                              [IFLA_PORT_*], ...
                      ...
              [IFLA_PORT_SELF]
                      [IFLA_PORT_*], ...

These attributes are design to be set and get symmetrically.  VF_PORTS
is a list of VF_PORTs, one for each VF, when dealing with an SR-IOV
device.  PORT_SELF is for the PF of the SR-IOV device, in case it wants
to also have a port-profile, or for the case where the VF==PF, like in
enic patch 2/2 of this patch set.

A port-profile is used to configure/enable the external switch virtual port
backing the netdev interface, not to configure the host-facing side of the
netdev.  A port-profile is an identifier known to the switch.  How port-
profiles are installed on the switch or how available port-profiles are
made know to the host is outside the scope of this patch.

There are two types of port-profiles specs in the netlink msg.  The first spec
is for 802.1Qbg (pre-)standard, VDP protocol.  The second spec is for devices
that run a similar protocol as VDP but in firmware, thus hiding the protocol
details.  In either case, the specs have much in common and makes sense to
define the netlink msg as the union of the two specs.  For example, both specs
have a notition of associating/deassociating a port-profile.  And both specs
require some information from the hypervisor manager, such as client port
instance ID.

The general flow is the port-profile is applied to a host netdev interface
using RTM_SETLINK, the receiver of the RTM_SETLINK msg communicates with the
switch, and the switch virtual port backing the host netdev interface is
configured/enabled based on the settings defined by the port-profile.  What
those settings comprise, and how those settings are managed is again
outside the scope of this patch, since this patch only deals with the
first step in the flow.

Patrick McHardy 25239cee7e net: rtnetlink: decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families
Decouple rtnetlink address families from real address families in socket.h to
be able to add rtnetlink interfaces to code that is not a real address family
without increasing AF_MAX/NPROTO.

This will be used to add support for multicast route dumping from all tables
as the proc interface can't be extended to support anything but the main table
without breaking compatibility.

This partialy undoes the patch to introduce independant families for routing
rules and converts ipmr routing rules to a new rtnetlink family. Similar to
that patch, values up to 127 are reserved for real address families, values
above that may be used arbitrarily.

Patrick McHardy 3729d50212 rtnetlink: support specifying device flags on device creation
commit e8469ed959c373c2ff9e6f488aa5a14971aebe1f
Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
Date:   Tue Feb 23 20:41:30 2010 +0100

Support specifying the initial device flags when creating a device though
rtnl_link. Devices allocated by rtnl_create_link() are marked as INITIALIZING
in order to surpress netlink registration notifications. To complete setup,
rtnl_configure_link() must be called, which performs the device flag changes
and invokes the deferred notifiers if everything went well.

Two examples:

# add macvlan to eth0
#
$ ip link add link eth0 up allmulticast on type macvlan

[LINK]11: macvlan0@eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,ALLMULTI,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN

Patrick McHardy bd38081160 dev: support deferring device flag change notifications
Split dev_change_flags() into two functions: __dev_change_flags() to
perform the actual changes and __dev_notify_flags() to invoke netdevice
notifiers. This will be used by rtnl_link to defer netlink notifications
until the device has been fully configured.

This changes ordering of some operations, in particular:

- netlink notifications are sent after all changes have been performed.
  As a side effect this surpresses one unnecessary netlink message when
  the IFF_UP and other flags are changed simultaneously.

- The NETDEV_UP/NETDEV_DOWN and NETDEV_CHANGE notifiers are invoked
  after all changes have been performed. Their relative is unchanged.

- net_dmaengine_put() is invoked before the NETDEV_DOWN notifier instead
  of afterwards. This should not make any difference since both RX and TX
  are already shut down at this point.

flags fails without sending any notifications related to the device

This patch changes rollback_registered_many() and register_netdevice()

rtnl_link until setup is complete.

The rcu_dereference() in __sk_free() is protected by the fact
that it is never reached if an update could change it.  Check
for this by using rcu_dereference_check() to verify that the
struct sock's ->sk_wmem_alloc counter is zero.

Eric W. Biederman d90a909e1f net: Fix userspace RTM_NEWLINK notifications.
I received some bug reports about userspace programs having problems
because after RTM_NEWLINK was received they could not immediate access
files under /proc/sys/net/ because they had not been registered yet.

The original problem was trivially fixed by moving the userspace
notification from rtnetlink_event() to the end of
register_netdevice().

When testing that change I discovered I was still getting RTM_NEWLINK
events before I could access proc and I was also getting RTM_NEWLINK
events after I was seeing RTM_DELLINK.  Things practically guaranteed
to confuse userspace.

After a little more investigation these extra notifications proved to
be from the new notifiers NETDEV_POST_INIT and NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH
hitting the default case in rtnetlink_event, and triggering
unnecessary RTM_NEWLINK messages.

rtnetlink_event now explicitly handles NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH and
NETDEV_POST_INIT to avoid sending the incorrect userspace
notifications.

Eric W. Biederman 81adee47df net: Support specifying the network namespace upon device creation.
There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
with a well known name.

We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
for the new device exists through the life of the call.  To keep
that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
logic into rtnl_link_get_net.

In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
device source network namespace.
