Pull networking updates from David Miller: "Highlights: 1) Support more Realtek wireless chips, from Jes Sorenson. 2) New BPF types for per-cpu hash and arrap maps, from Alexei Starovoitov. 3) Make several TCP sysctls per-namespace, from Nikolay Borisov. 4) Allow the use of SO_REUSEPORT in order to do per-thread processing of incoming TCP/UDP connections. The muxing can be done using a BPF program which hashes the incoming packet. From Craig Gallek. 5) Add a multiplexer for TCP streams, to provide a messaged based interface. BPF programs can be used to determine the message boundaries. From Tom Herbert. 6) Add 802.1AE MACSEC support, from Sabrina Dubroca. 7) Avoid factorial complexity when taking down an inetdev interface with lots of configured addresses. We were doing things like traversing the entire address less for each address removed, and flushing the entire netfilter conntrack table for every address as well. 8) Add and use SKB bulk free infrastructure, from Jesper Brouer. 9) Allow offloading u32 classifiers to hardware, and implement for ixgbe, from John Fastabend. 10) Allow configuring IRQ coalescing parameters on a per-queue basis, from Kan Liang. 11) Extend ethtool so that larger link mode masks can be supported. From David Decotigny. 12) Introduce devlink, which can be used to configure port link types (ethernet vs Infiniband, etc.), port splitting, and switch device level attributes as a whole. From Jiri Pirko. 13) Hardware offload support for flower classifiers, from Amir Vadai. 14) Add "Local Checksum Offload". Basically, for a tunneled packet the checksum of the outer header is 'constant' (because with the checksum field filled into the inner protocol header, the payload of the outer frame checksums to 'zero'), and we can take advantage of that in various ways.

Smatch reports the following warning: CHECK drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rc.c drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtlwifi/rc.c:144 _rtl_rc_rate_set_series() warn: impossible condition '(wireless_mode == 256) => (0-255 == 256)' This warning arises because commit acc6907b87a9 ("rtlwifi: Fix warning from ieee80211_get_tx_rates() when using 5G") now checks the wireless mode for WIRELESS_MODE_AC_ONLY (BIT(8)) in _rtl_rc_rate_set_series(). As a result, all quantities used to store the wireless mode must be u16. This patch also reorders struct rtl_sta_info to save a little space.

2016-03-07rtlwifi: pass struct rtl_stats by reference as it is more efficientColin Ian King
passing rtl_stats by value is inefficient; the structure is over 300 bytes in size and generally just one field (packet_report_type) is being accessed, so the pass by value is a relatively large overhead. This change just affects just the rx_command_packet calls.

Calling synchronize_irq() right before free_irq() is quite useless. On one hand the IRQ can easily fire again before free_irq() is entered, on the other hand free_irq() itself calls synchronize_irq() internally (in a race condition free way), before any state associated with the IRQ is freed.

2016-01-25rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix 5G failure when EEPROM is incorrectly encodedLarry Finger
Recently, it has been reported that D-Link DWA-582 cards, which use an RTL8812AE chip are not able to scan for 5G networks. The problems started with kernel 4.2, which is the first version that had commit d10101a60372 ("rtlwifi: rtl8821ae: Fix problem with regulatory information"). With this patch, the driver went from setting a default channel plan to using the value derived from EEPROM. Bug reports at https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=111031 and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1279653 are examples of this problem. The problem was solved once I learned that the internal country code was resulting in a regulatory set with only 2.4 GHz channels. With the RTL8821AE chips available to me, the country code was such that both 2.4 and 5 GHz channels are allowed. The fix is to allow both bands even when the EEPROM is incorrectly encoded.

In commit 38506ecefab9 (rtlwifi: rtl_pci: Start modification for new drivers), a bug was introduced that causes a NULL pointer dereference. As this bug only affects the infrequently used RTL8192EE and only under low-memory conditions, it has taken a long time for the bug to show up. The bug was reported on the linux-wireless mailing list and also at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-release-upgrader/ as bug #1527603 (kernel crashes due to rtl8192ee driver on ubuntu 15.10).
