When the decrypt request goes to the backlog and crypto_aead_decrypt
returns -EBUSY, tls_do_decryption will wait until all async
decryptions have completed. If one of them fails, tls_do_decryption
will return -EBADMSG and tls_decrypt_sg jumps to the error path,
releasing all the pages. But the pages have been passed to the async
callback, and have already been released by tls_decrypt_done.
The only true async case is when crypto_aead_decrypt returns
-EINPROGRESS. With -EBUSY, we already waited so we can tell
tls_sw_recvmsg that the data is available for immediate copy, but we
need to notify tls_decrypt_sg (via the new ->async_done flag) that the
memory has already been released.

If we're not doing async, the handling is much simpler. There's no
reference counting, we just need to wait for the completion to wake us
up and return its result.
We should preferably also use a separate crypto_wait. I'm not seeing a
UAF as I did in the past, I think aec7961916 ("tls: fix race between

If we peek from 2 records with a currently empty rx_list, and the
first record is decrypted synchronously but the second record is
decrypted async, the following happens:
1. decrypt record 1 (sync)
2. copy from record 1 to the userspace's msg
3. queue the decrypted record to rx_list for future read(!PEEK)
4. decrypt record 2 (async)
5. queue record 2 to rx_list
6. call process_rx_list to copy data from the 2nd record
We currently pass copied=0 as skip offset to process_rx_list, so we
end up copying once again from the first record. We should skip over
the data we've already copied.

With mixed sync/async decryption, or failures of crypto_aead_decrypt,
we increment decrypt_pending but we never do the corresponding
decrement since tls_decrypt_done will not be called. In this case, we
should decrement decrypt_pending immediately to avoid getting stuck.
For example, the prequeue prequeue test gets stuck with mixed

net: collect tstats automatically
The commit 34d21de99c ("net: Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to core and
convert veth & vrf") added a field in struct_netdevice, which tells what
type of statistics the driver supports.
That field is used primarily to allocate stats structures automatically,
but, it also could leveraged to simplify the drivers even further, such
as, if the driver relies in the default stats collection, then it
doesn't need to assign to .ndo_get_stats64. That means that drivers only
assign functions to .ndo_get_stats64 if they are using something
special.
I started to move some of these drivers[1][2][3] to use the core
allocation, and with this change in, I just need to touch the driver
once, and be able to simplify the whole stats allocation and collection
for generic case.
There are 44 devices today that could benefit from this simplification.
# grep -r .ndo_get_stats64 | grep dev_get_tstats64 | wc -l
44
As of today, netnext only has the `sit` driver fully ported to core
stats allocation, hence the second patch.

If the driver is using the network core allocation mechanism, by setting
NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, as this driver is, then, it doesn't need to set
the dev_get_tstats64() generic .ndo_get_stats64 function pointer. Since
the network core calls it automatically, and .ndo_get_stats64 should
only be set if the driver needs special treatment.
This simplifies the driver, since all the generic statistics is now
handled by core.

If the network driver is relying in the net core to do stats allocation,
then we want to dev_get_tstats64() instead of netdev_stats_to_stats64(),
since there are per-cpu stats that needs to be taken in consideration.
This will also simplify the drivers in regard to statistics. Once the
driver sets NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, it doesn't not need to allocate the
stacks, neither it needs to set `.ndo_get_stats64 = dev_get_tstats64`
for the generic stats collection function anymore.

Netfilter fixes for net
Patch #1 restores NFPROTO_INET with nft_compat, from Ignat Korchagin.
Patch #2 fixes an issue with bridge netfilter and broadcast/multicast
packets.
There is a day 0 bug in br_netfilter when used with connection tracking.
Conntrack assumes that an nf_conn structure that is not yet added to
hash table ("unconfirmed"), is only visible by the current cpu that is
processing the sk_buff.
For bridge this isn't true, sk_buff can get cloned in between, and
clones can be processed in parallel on different cpu.
This patch disables NAT and conntrack helpers for multicast packets.
Patch #3 adds a selftest to cover for the br_netfilter bug.

The current code adds extra two bytes (i.e. sizeof(struct hsr_sup_tlv))

This is wrong, as both 'struct hsrv1_ethhdr_sp' and 'hsrv0_ethhdr_sp'
already have 'struct hsr_sup_tag' defined in them, so there is no need
for adding extra two bytes.
This code was working correctly as with no RedBox support, the check for
HSR_TLV_EOT (0x00) was off by two bytes, which were corresponding to
zeroed padded bytes for minimal packet size.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: add Amethyst specific SMI GPIO function

The existing mv88e6390_g2_scratch_gpio_set_smi() cannot be used on the
88E6393X as it requires certain P0_MODE, it also checks the CPU mode
as it impacts the bit setting value.
This is all irrelevant for Amethyst (MV88E6191X/6193X/6393X) as only
the default value of the SMI_PHY Config bit is set to CPU_MGD bootstrap
pin value but it can be changed without restrictions so that GPIO pins
9 and 10 are used as SMI pins.
So, introduce Amethyst specific function and call that if the Amethyst
family wants to setup the external PHY.

the length of the IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute. However, this adjustment
removed the `break` statement and led to an error logic of the flags
writing back at the end of this function.
if (have_flags)

// attr should point to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS NLA !!!
Before the mentioned commit, the `attr` is granted to be IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS.
However, this is not necessarily true fow now as the updated loop will let
the attr point to the last NLA, even an invalid NLA which could cause
overflow writes.
This patch introduces a new variable `br_flag` to save the NLA pointer
that points to IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS and uses it to resolve the mentioned
error logic.

- "ip -4 netconf show dev XXX" can be implemented without RTNL [1]
- "ip -4 netconf" dumps can be implemented using RCU instead of RTNL [1]
[1] This only refers to RTM_GETNETCONF operation, "ip" command
also uses RTM_GETLINK dumps which are using RTNL at this moment.

1) inet_netconf_dump_devconf() can run under RCU protection
instead of RTNL.
2) properly return 0 at the end of a dump, avoiding an
an extra recvmsg() system call.
3) Do not use inet_base_seq() anymore, for_each_netdev_dump()
has nice properties. Restarting a GETDEVCONF dump if a device has
been added/removed or if net->ipv4.dev_addr_genid has changed is moot.

====================
tools: ynl: stop using libmnl
There is no strong reason to stop using libmnl in ynl but there
are a few small ones which add up.
First (as I remembered immediately after hitting send on v1),
C++ compilers do not like the libmnl for_each macros.
I haven't tried it myself, but having all the code directly
in YNL makes it easier for folks porting to C++ to modify them
and/or make YNL more C++ friendly.
Second, we do much more advanced netlink level parsing in ynl
than libmnl so it's hard to say that libmnl abstracts much from us.
The fact that this series, removing the libmnl dependency, only
adds <300 LoC shows that code savings aren't huge.
OTOH when new types are added (e.g. auto-int) we need to add
compatibility to deal with older version of libmnl (in fact,
even tho patches have been sent months ago, auto-ints are still
not supported in libmnl.git).
Thrid, the dependency makes ynl less self contained, and harder
to vendor in. Whether vendoring libraries into projects is a good
idea is a separate discussion, nonetheless, people want to do it.
Fourth, there are small annoyances with the libmnl APIs which
are hard to fix in backward-compatible ways. See the last patch
for example.
All in all, libmnl is a great library, but with all the code
generation and structured parsing, ynl is better served by going
its own way.
