Today netpoll_rx_enable and netpoll_rx_disable are called from
dev_close and and __dev_close, and not from dev_close_many.
Move the calls into __dev_close_many so that we have a single call
site to maintain, and so that dev_close_many gains this protection as
well. Which importantly makes batched network device deletes safe.

Dropping packets in __dev_queue_xmit() when transmit queue
is stopped (NIC TX ring buffer full or BQL limit reached) currently
outputs a syslog message.
It would be better to get a precise count of such events available in

The netpoll packet receive code only becomes active if the netpoll
rx_skb_hook is implemented, and there is not a single implementation
of the netpoll rx_skb_hook in the kernel.
All of the out of tree implementations I have found all call
netpoll_poll which was removed from the kernel in 2011, so this
change should not add any additional breakage.
There are problems with the netpoll packet receive code. __netpoll_rx
does not call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb_any in hard irq
context. netpoll_neigh_reply leaks every skb it receives. Reception
of packets does not work successfully on stacked devices (aka bonding,
team, bridge, and vlans).
Given that the netpoll packet receive code is buggy, there are no
out of tree users that will be merged soon, and the code has
not been used for in tree for a decade let's just remove it.
Reverting this commit can server as a starting point for anyone
who wants to resurrect netpoll packet reception support.

Add GRO handlers for protocols that do UDP encapsulation, with the intent of
being able to coalesce packets which encapsulate packets belonging to
the same TCP session.
For GRO purposes, the destination UDP port takes the role of the ether type
field in the ethernet header or the next protocol in the IP header.
The UDP GRO handler will only attempt to coalesce packets whose destination
port is registered to have gro handler.
Use a mark on the skb GRO CB data to disallow (flush) running the udp gro receive
code twice on a packet. This solves the problem of udp encapsulated packets whose
inner VM packet is udp and happen to carry a port which has registered offloads.

Currently, if a device changes its mtu, first the change happens (invloving
all the side effects), and after that the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU is sent so that
other devices can catch up with the new mtu. However, if they return
NOTIFY_BAD, then the change is reverted and error returned.
This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add
NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change
actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is
aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu.

When initializing a gro_list for a packet, first check the rxhash of
the incoming skb against that of the skb's in the list. This should be
a very strong inidicator of whether the flow is going to be matched,
and potentially allows a lot of other checks to be short circuited.
Use skb_hash_raw so that we don't force the hash to be calculated.

GRO layer has a limit of 8 flows being held in GRO list,
for performance reason.
When a packet comes for a flow not yet in the list,
and list is full, we immediately give it to upper
stacks, lowering aggregation performance.
With TSO auto sizing and FQ packet scheduler, this situation
happens more often.
This patch changes strategy to simply evict the oldest flow of
the list. This works better because of the nature of packet
trains for which GRO is efficient. This also has the effect
of lowering the GRO latency if many flows are competing.
Tested :
Used a 40Gbps NIC, with 4 RX queues, and 200 concurrent TCP_STREAM
netperf.
Before patch, aggregate rate is 11Gbps (while a single flow can reach
30Gbps)
After patch, line rate is reached.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:
- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
when tso is disabled for lower device.
Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.
With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.
In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

This patch built on top of Commit 299603e837
("net-gro: Prepare GRO stack for the upcoming tunneling support") to add
the support of the standard GRE (RFC1701/RFC2784/RFC2890) to the GRO
stack. It also serves as an example for supporting other encapsulation
protocols in the GRO stack in the future.
The patch supports version 0 and all the flags (key, csum, seq#) but
will flush any pkt with the S (seq#) flag. This is because the S flag
is not support by GSO, and a GRO pkt may end up in the forwarding path,
thus requiring GSO support to break it up correctly.
Currently the "packet_offload" structure only contains L3 (ETH_P_IP/
ETH_P_IPV6) GRO offload support so the encapped pkts are limited to
IP pkts (i.e., w/o L2 hdr). But support for other protocol type can
be easily added, so is the support for GRE variations like NVGRE.
The patch also support csum offload. Specifically if the csum flag is on
and the h/w is capable of checksumming the payload (CHECKSUM_COMPLETE),
the code will take advantage of the csum computed by the h/w when
validating the GRE csum.
Note that commit 60769a5dcd "ipv4: gre:
add GRO capability" already introduces GRO capability to IPv4 GRE
tunnels, using the gro_cells infrastructure. But GRO is done after
GRE hdr has been removed (i.e., decapped). The following patch applies
GRO when pkts first come in (before hitting the GRE tunnel code). There
is some performance advantage for applying GRO as early as possible.
Also this approach is transparent to other subsystem like Open vSwitch
where GRE decap is handled outside of the IP stack hence making it
harder for the gro_cells stuff to apply. On the other hand, some NICs
are still not capable of hashing on the inner hdr of a GRE pkt (RSS).
In that case the GRO processing of pkts from the same remote host will
all happen on the same CPU and the performance may be suboptimal.
I'm including some rough preliminary performance numbers below. Note
that the performance will be highly dependent on traffic load, mix as
usual. Moreover it also depends on NIC offload features hence the
following is by no means a comprehesive study. Local testing and tuning
will be needed to decide the best setting.
All tests spawned 50 copies of netperf TCP_STREAM and ran for 30 secs.
(super_netperf 50 -H 192.168.1.18 -l 30)
An IP GRE tunnel with only the key flag on (e.g., ip tunnel add gre1
mode gre local 10.246.17.18 remote 10.246.17.17 ttl 255 key 123)
is configured.
The GRO support for pkts AFTER decap are controlled through the device
feature of the GRE device (e.g., ethtool -K gre1 gro on/off).

(CHECKSUM_COMPLETE).

netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree,
they are:
* Add full port randomization support. Some crazy researchers found a way
to reconstruct the secure ephemeral ports that are allocated in random mode
by sending off-path bursts of UDP packets to overrun the socket buffer of
the DNS resolver to trigger retransmissions, then if the timing for the
DNS resolution done by a client is larger than usual, then they conclude
that the port that received the burst of UDP packets is the one that was
opened. It seems a bit aggressive method to me but it seems to work for
them. As a result, Daniel Borkmann and Hannes Frederic Sowa came up with a
new NAT mode to fully randomize ports using prandom.
* Add a new classifier to x_tables based on the socket net_cls set via
cgroups. These includes two patches to prepare the field as requested by
Zefan Li. Also from Daniel Borkmann.
* Use prandom instead of get_random_bytes in several locations of the
netfilter code, from Florian Westphal.
* Allow to use the CTA_MARK_MASK in ctnetlink when mangling the conntrack
mark, also from Florian Westphal.
* Fix compilation warning due to unused variable in IPVS, from Geert
Uytterhoeven.
* Add support for UID/GID via nfnetlink_queue, from Valentina Giusti.
* Add IPComp extension to x_tables, from Fan Du.

While we're at it and introduced CGROUP_NET_CLASSID, lets also make
NETPRIO_CGROUP more consistent with the rest of cgroups and rename it
into CONFIG_CGROUP_NET_PRIO so that for networking, we now have
CONFIG_CGROUP_NET_{PRIO,CLASSID}. This not only makes the CONFIG
option consistent among networking cgroups, but also among cgroups
CONFIG conventions in general as the vast majority has a prefix of
CONFIG_CGROUP_<SUBSYS>.

It is useful to be able to walk all upper devices when bringing
a device online where the RTNL lock is held. In this case it
is safe to walk the all_adj_list because the RTNL lock is used
to protect the write side as well.
This patch adds a check to see if the rtnl lock is held before
throwing a warning in netdev_all_upper_get_next_dev_rcu().
Also because we now have a call site for lockdep_rtnl_is_held()
outside COFIG_LOCK_PROVING an inline definition returning 1 is
needed. Similar to the rcu_read_lock_is_held().

This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header"
and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow
an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the
encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP
tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later.
With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on
skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g.,
skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the
the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for
a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new
encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows
(e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a
different hdr length.
Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and
will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at
most one "transport layer" in the encap chain.

Some network drivers use dev_kfree_skb_any() and dev_kfree_skb_irq()
helpers to free skbs, both for dropped packets and TX completed ones.
We need to separate the two causes to get better diagnostics
given by dropwatch or "perf record -e skb:kfree_skb"
This patch provides two new helpers, dev_consume_skb_any() and
dev_consume_skb_irq() to be used for consumed skbs.
__dev_kfree_skb_irq() is slightly optimized to remove one
atomic_dec_and_test() in fast path, and use this_cpu_{r|w} accessors.

The following commit:
b6c40d68ff
net: only invoke dev->change_rx_flags when device is UP
tried to fix a problem with VLAN devices and promiscuouse flag setting.
The issue was that VLAN device was setting a flag on an interface that
was down, thus resulting in bad promiscuity count.
This commit blocked flag propagation to any device that is currently
down.
A later commit:
deede2fabe
vlan: Don't propagate flag changes on down interfaces
fixed VLAN code to only propagate flags when the VLAN interface is up,
thus fixing the same issue as above, only localized to VLAN.
The problem we have now is that if we have create a complex stack
involving multiple software devices like bridges, bonds, and vlans,
then it is possible that the flags would not propagate properly to
the physical devices. A simple examle of the scenario is the
following:
eth0----> bond0 ----> bridge0 ---> vlan50
If bond0 or eth0 happen to be down at the time bond0 is added to
the bridge, then eth0 will never have promisc mode set which is
currently required for operation as part of the bridge. As a
result, packets with vlan50 will be dropped by the interface.
The only 2 devices that implement the special flag handling are
VLAN and DSA and they both have required code to prevent incorrect
flag propagation. As a result we can remove the generic solution
introduced in b6c40d68ff and leave
it to the individual devices to decide whether they will block
flag propagation or not.

A macvlan device has always LRO disabled so that calling
dev_disable_lro() on it does nothing. If we need to disable LRO
e.g. because
- the macvlan device is inserted into a bridge
- IPv6 forwarding is enabled for it
- it is in a different namespace than lowerdev and IPv4
forwarding is enabled in it
we need to disable LRO on its underlying device instead (as we
do for 802.1q VLAN devices).

the fact that it supports package forwarding in hardware between
physical interfaces and other mac layer devices assigned to it (such
as macvlans). This operaions structure can be used by virtual mac

in hardware more efficiently.

Joby Poriyath provided a xen-netback patch to reduce the size of
xenvif structure as some netdev allocation could fail under
memory pressure/fragmentation.
This patch is handling the problem at the core level, allowing
any netdev structures to use vmalloc() if kmalloc() failed.
As vmalloc() adds overhead on a critical network path, add __GFP_REPEAT
to kzalloc() flags to do this fallback only when really needed.
