l2tp: drop l2tp_session_find()
l2tp_netlink is the last user of l2tp_session_find(), but that call is

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
There's no point in checking for duplicate sessions at the beginning of
l2tp_nl_cmd_session_create(); the ->session_create() callbacks already
return -EEXIST when the session already exists.
Furthermore, even if l2tp_session_find() returns NULL, a new session
might be created right after the test. So relying on ->session_create()
to avoid duplicate session is the only sane behaviour.

ftgmac100: Rework batch 3 - TX path
This is version 2 of the third batch of updates to
the ftgmac100 driver.
This one tackles the TX path of the driver. This provides the
bulk of the performance improvements by adding support for
fragmented sends along with a bunch of cleanups.
Version 2 fixes a patch splitting mistake and uses
eth_skb_pad() (which uses skb_put_padto) to pad ethernet
frames rather than skb_padto(), thus removing the need to
also pad the packet headlen in a couple of places.
Subsequent batches will add various features (ethtool functions,
vlan offlan, ...) and cleanups.

We have a private lock which isn't terribly useful, and we maintain
a "tx_pending" counter for information that's already available
via a trivial arithmetic operation. Then we unconditionaly wake
the queue even when not stopped. Finally our code in tx isn't
really safe vs. a concurrent reclaim. The aspeed chips aren't SMP
today but I prefer the code being right and future proof.
So rip that out and replace it with more "standard" queue handling,
currently with a threshold of 1 queue element, which will be
increased when we implement fragmented sends.

40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-08
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
Mitch fixes an issue where the client driver (i40iw) was attempting to
load on x710 devices (which do not support iWARP), so only register with
the client if iWARP is supported.
Jake fixes up error messages to better clarify to the user when adding a
invalid flow type. Updates the driver to look up the MAC address from
eth_get_platform_mac_address() first before checking what the firmware
provides. Cleans up code so we are not repeating a duplicate loop, by
checking both transmit and receive queues in a single loop. Also cleans
up flags never used, so remove the definitions.
Alex does cleanup so that we are always updating pf->flags when a change
is made to the private flags. Adds support for 3K buffers to the receive
path so that we can provide the additional padding needed in the event
of NET_IP_ALIGN being non-zero or a cache line being greater than 64.
Adds support for build_skb() to i40e/i40evf.

was stopping other PFs from running their reset procedures.

All DSA tag receive functions do strictly the same thing after they have located

- push ETH_HLEN bytes
- set pkt_type to PACKET_HOST
- call eth_type_trans()
- bump up counters
- call netif_receive_skb()

All fields before dataref are cleared, i.e.

For security reasons, NIC firmware does not allow VF to set its VLAN if PF
set it already. Firmware allows VF to set its VLAN if PF did not set it.
After the VF instructs the firmware to set the VLAN, VF always indicates
(via return 0) that the operation is successful--even for the times when it
isn't.
Put in a mechanism for the VF's set VLAN function to receive the firmware
response code, then make that function return -EPERM if the firmware
forbids the operation.
Make that mechanism available for other functions that may, in the future,
be interested in receiving the response code from the firmware. That
mechanism involves adding new fields to struct octnic_ctrl_pkt, so make all
users of struct octnic_ctrl_pkt initialize the struct to zero before using
it; otherwise, the mechanism might act on uninitialized garbage.

New getsockopt option to retrieve socket cookie
In the current kernel socket cookie implementation, there is no simple
and direct way to retrieve the socket cookie based on file descriptor. A
process mat need to get it from sock fd if it want to correlate with
sock_diag output or use a bpf map with new socket cookie function.
If userspace wants to receive the socket cookie for a given socket fd,
it must send a SOCK_DIAG_BY_FAMILY dump request and look for the 5-tuple.
This is slow and can be ambiguous in the case of sockets that have the
same 5-tuple (e.g., tproxy / transparent sockets, SO_REUSEPORT sockets,
etc.).
As shown in the example program. The xt_eBPF program is using socket cookie
to record the network traffics statistics and with the socket cookie
retrieved by getsockopt. The program can directly access to a specific
socket data without scanning the whole bpf map.

This patch is meant to improve the performance of the Rx path.
Specifically by using build_skb we have several distinct advantages.
In the case of small frames we were previously using a copy-break approach.
This means that we were allocating a page fragment to use for skb->head,
and were having to copy the packet into that region. Both of those calls
are now avoided since we just build the skb around the data.
In the case of large frames the gains are much more significant.
Specifically we were having to allocate skb->head, and copy the headers as
before. However in addition we were having to parse the header using
eth_get_headlen which could be quite expensive. All of this is avoided by
building the frame around the data. I have seen gains as high as 30% when
using VXLAN for instance due to just header pulling overhead.
Finally with all this in place it also sets us up to start looking at
enabling XDP. Specifically we now have a path in which the data is in the
page and the frame is built around it. So if we parse it with XDP before
we call build_skb we can take care of any necessary processing there.

This patch adds padding to the start of frames to make room for headroom
for us to eventually start using build_skb. Right now we guarantee at
least NET_SKB_PAD + NET_IP_ALIGN, however we allocate more space if more is
available. For example on x86 the headroom should be 192 bytes.
On systems that have too large of a cache line size to support storing 1.5K
padding and shared info we default to using 3K buffers and reserve
everything that isn't used for skb_shared_info or the data buffer for
headroom.
