bonding: Add tlb_dynamic_lb parameter for tlb mode
The aggresive load balancing causes packet re-ordering as active
flows are moved from a slave to another within the group. Sometime
this aggresive lb is not necessary if the preference is for less
re-ordering. This parameter if used with value "0" disables
this dynamic flow shuffling minimizing packet re-ordering. Of course
the side effect is that it has to live with the static load balancing

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to ixgbe, ixgbevf, e1000e, igb and i40e.
Jacob converts the ixgbe low_water into an array which allows the
algorithm to output different values for different TCs and we can
distinguish between them. Removes vlan_filter_disable() and
vlan_filter_enable() in ixgbe so that we can do the work directly in
set_rx_mode(). Changes the setting of multicast filters only when
the interface is not in promiscuous mode for multicast packets in
ixgbe. Improves MAC filter handling by adding mac_table API based
on work done for igb, which includes functions to add/delete MAC
filters.
Mark changes register reads in ixgbe to an out-of-line function since
register reads are slow.
Emil provides a ixgbevf patch to update the driver description since
it supports more than just 82599 parts now.
David provides several cleanup patches for e1000e which resolve some
checkpatch issues as well as changing occurrences of returning 0 or 1 in
bool functions to returning true false or true.
Carolyn provides several cleanup patches for igb which fix checkpatch
warnings.
Mitch provides a fix for i40evf where the driver would correctly allow
the virtual function link state to be controlled by 'ip set link', but
would not report it correctly back. This is fixed by filling out
the appropriate field in the VF info struct.

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Greg provides two patches for i40e, the first adds the netdev ops to support
the addition of static FDB entries in the physical function (PF) MAC/VLAN
filter table so that the virtual functions (VFs) can communicate with
bridged virtual Ethernet ports such as those provided by the virtio
driver. The second is to fix an issue where the assignment of a port
VLAN after it is already up and running requires the VF driver to be
reloaded, so print a message warning the host administrator about the
need to reload the VF driver. In addition, knock the VF offline so that
it does not continue to receive traffic not on the port VLAN assigned to
it.
Jesse provides a patch for i40e and i40evf to unhide and enable the
PREFENA field in the receive host memory cache (RX-HMC) for best
performance.
Mitch provides a i40e patch to implement the net device op for Tx
bandwidth setting.
Catherine removes a firmware workaround that is no longer needed with
the latest firmware for i40e. She also provides some minor cleanups
as well bumps the driver versions.
Anjali provides a fix for i40e displaying IPv4 flow director filters
which needed additional information to be communicated up above in
order for it to be displayed correctly.
Shannon adds tracking of the NVM busy state so that the driver won't
allow a new NVM update command until a completion event is received
from the current update. Updates the admin queue API to reflect
recent changes in the firmware. Also rearranges the "if netdev" logic
to prepare for handling non-netdev VSIs. Lastly rework the fdir
setup and tear down to use the newly created i40e_vsi_open() and
i40e_vsi_close(), which also fixes a memory leak of the FDIR queue

====================
audit: implement multicast socket for journald
This is a patch set Eric Paris and I have been working on to add a restricted
capability read-only netlink multicast socket to kernel audit to enable
userspace clients such as systemd/journald to receive audit logs, in addition
to the bidirectional auditd userspace client.
Currently, auditd has the CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL and CAP_AUDIT_WRITE capabilities
(but uses CAP_NET_ADMIN). The CAP_AUDIT_READ capability will be added for use
by read-only AUDIT_NLGRP_READLOG multicast group clients to the kaudit
subsystem. This will remove the dependence on CAP_NET_ADMIN for the multicast
read-only socket.
Patches 1-3 provide a way for per-protocol bind functions to
signal an error and to be able to clean up after themselves.
The first netfilter cleanup patch has already been accepted by a netfilter
maintainer, though I don't see it upstream yet, so it is included for
completeness.
The second patch adds the per-protocol bind function return code to signal to
the netlink code that no further processing should be done and to undo the work
already done.
V1: This rev fixes a bug introduced by flattening the code in the last posting.
*V2: This rev moves the per-protocol bind call above the socket exposure call
and refactors out the unbind procedure.
The third provides a way per protocol to undo bind actions on DROP.
Patches 4-6 implement the audit multicast socket with capability checking.
The fourth patch adds the bind function capability check to multicast join
requests for audit.
The fifth patch adds the audit log read multicast group. An assumption has
been made that systemd/journald reside in the initial network namespace. This
could be changed to check the actual network namespace of systemd/journald
should this assumption no longer be true since audit now supports all network
namespaces. This version of the patch now directly sends the broadcast when
the packet is ready rather than waiting until it passes the queue.
The sixth checks if any clients actually exist before sending.
Since the net tree is busier than the audit tree, conflicts are more likely and
the audit patches depend on the net patches, it is proposed to have the net
tree carry this entire patchset for 3.16. Are the net maintainers ok with this?

audit: send multicast messages only if there are listeners
Test first to see if there are any userspace multicast listeners bound to the

audit: add netlink multicast group for log read
Add a netlink multicast socket with one group to kaudit for "best-effort"
delivery to read-only userspace clients such as systemd, in addition to the
existing bidirectional unicast auditd userspace client.
Currently, auditd is intended to use the CAP_AUDIT_CONTROL and CAP_AUDIT_WRITE
capabilities, but actually uses CAP_NET_ADMIN. The CAP_AUDIT_READ capability
is added for use by read-only AUDIT_NLGRP_READLOG netlink multicast group
clients to the kaudit subsystem.
This will safely give access to services such as systemd to consume audit logs
while ensuring write access remains restricted for integrity.

netlink: have netlink per-protocol bind function return an error code.
Have the netlink per-protocol optional bind function return an int error code
rather than void to signal a failure.
This will enable netlink protocols to perform extra checks including
capabilities and permissions verifications when updating memberships in
multicast groups.
In netlink_bind() and netlink_setsockopt() the call to the per-protocol bind
function was moved above the multicast group update to prevent any access to
the multicast socket groups before checking with the per-protocol bind
function. This will enable the per-protocol bind function to be used to check
permissions which could be denied before making them available, and to avoid
the messy job of undoing the addition should the per-protocol bind function
fail.
The netfilter subsystem seems to be the only one currently using the
per-protocol bind function.

filter: added BPF random opcode
Added a new ancillary load (bpf call in eBPF parlance) that produces
a 32-bit random number. We are implementing it as an ancillary load
(instead of an ISA opcode) because (a) it is simpler, (b) allows easy
JITing, and (c) seems more in line with generic ISAs that do not have
"get a random number" as a instruction, but as an OS call.
The main use for this ancillary load is to perform random packet sampling.

be2net: Support for configurable RSS hash key
This be2net patch implements the get/set_rxfh() ethtool hooks.
RSS_CONFIG device command is invoked to set hashkey and indirection table.
It also uses an initial random value for RSS hash key instead of a
hard-coded value as hard-coded values for a hash-key are usually
considered a security risk.

tcp: avoid retransmits of TCP packets hanging in host queues
In commit
0e280af026a5 ("tcp: introduce TCPSpuriousRtxHostQueues SNMP
counter") we added a logic to detect when a packet was retransmitted
while the prior clone was still in a qdisc or driver queue.
We are now confident we can do better, and catch the problem before
we fragment a TSO packet before retransmit, or in TLP path.
This patch fully exploits the logic by simply canceling the spurious
retransmit.
Original packet is in a queue and will eventually leave the host.
This helps to avoid network collapses when some events make the RTO
estimations very wrong, particularly when dealing with huge number of
sockets with synchronized blast.
