Conflicts were simply overlapping changes.  In the net/ipv4/route.c
case the code had simply moved around a little bit and the same fix
was made in both 'net' and 'net-next'.

In the net/sched/sch_generic.c case a fix in 'net' happened at
the same time that a new argument was added to qdisc_hash_add().

WANG Cong 92f9170621 net_sched: check noop_qdisc before qdisc_hash_add()
Dmitry reported a crash when injecting faults in
attach_one_default_qdisc() and dev->qdisc is still
a noop_disc, the check before qdisc_hash_add() fails
to catch it because it tests NULL. We should test
against noop_qdisc since it is the default qdisc
at this point.

Jiri Kosina 49b499718f net: sched: make default fifo qdiscs appear in the dump
The original reason [1] for having hidden qdiscs (potential scalability
issues in qdisc_match_from_root() with single linked list in case of large
amount of qdiscs) has been invalidated by 59cc1f61f0 ("net: sched: convert
qdisc linked list to hashtable").

This allows us for bringing more clarity and determinism into the dump by
making default pfifo qdiscs visible.

We're not turning this on by default though, at it was deemed [2] too
intrusive / unnecessary change of default behavior towards userspace.
Instead, TCA_DUMP_INVISIBLE netlink attribute is introduced, which allows
applications to request complete qdisc hierarchy dump, including the
ones that have always been implicit/invisible.

Singleton noop_qdisc stays invisible, as teaching the whole infrastructure
about singletons would require quite some surgery with very little gain
(seeing no qdisc or seeing noop qdisc in the dump is probably setting
the same user expectation).

Matthias Tafelmeier 3d48b53fb2 net: dev_weight: TX/RX orthogonality
Oftenly, introducing side effects on packet processing on the other half
of the stack by adjusting one of TX/RX via sysctl is not desirable.
There are cases of demand for asymmetric, orthogonal configurability.

This holds true especially for nodes where RPS for RFS usage on top is
configured and therefore use the 'old dev_weight'. This is quite a
common base configuration setup nowadays, even with NICs of superior processing
support (e.g. aRFS).

A good example use case are nodes acting as noSQL data bases with a
large number of tiny requests and rather fewer but large packets as responses.
It's affordable to have large budget and rx dev_weights for the
requests. But as a side effect having this large a number on TX
processed in one run can overwhelm drivers.

This patch therefore introduces an independent configurability via sysctl to
userland.

Eric Dumazet 1c0d32fde5 net_sched: gen_estimator: complete rewrite of rate estimators
1) Old code was hard to maintain, due to complex lock chains.
   (We probably will be able to remove some kfree_rcu() in callers)

2) Using a single timer to update all estimators does not scale.

3) Code was buggy on 32bit kernel (WRITE_ONCE() on 64bit quantity
   is not supposed to work well)

In this rewrite :

- I removed the RB tree that had to be scanned in
  gen_estimator_active(). qdisc dumps should be much faster.

- Each estimator has its own timer.

- Estimations are maintained in net_rate_estimator structure,
  instead of dirtying the qdisc. Minor, but part of the simplification.

- Reading the estimator uses RCU and a seqcount to provide proper
  support for 32bit kernels.

- We reduce memory need when estimators are not used, since
  we store a pointer, instead of the bytes/packets counters.

- xt_rateest_mt() no longer has to grab a spinlock.
  (In the future, xt_rateest_tg() could be switched to per cpu counters)

Florian Westphal 48da34b7a7 sched: add and use qdisc_skb_head helpers
This change replaces sk_buff_head struct in Qdiscs with new qdisc_skb_head.

Its similar to the skb_buff_head api, but does not use skb->prev pointers.

Qdiscs will commonly enqueue at the tail of a list and dequeue at head.
While skb_buff_head works fine for this, enqueue/dequeue needs to also
adjust the prev pointer of next element.

The ->prev pointer is not required for qdiscs so we can just leave
it undefined and avoid one cacheline write access for en/dequeue.

Jiri Kosina 59cc1f61f0 net: sched: convert qdisc linked list to hashtable
Convert the per-device linked list into a hashtable. The primary
motivation for this change is that currently, we're not tracking all the
qdiscs in hierarchy (e.g. excluding default qdiscs), as the lookup
performed over the linked list by qdisc_match_from_root() is rather
expensive.

The ultimate goal is to get rid of hidden qdiscs completely, which will
bring much more determinism in user experience.

Eric Dumazet 4d202a0d31 net_sched: generalize bulk dequeue
When qdisc bulk dequeue was added in linux-3.18 (commit
5772e9a346 "qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs
with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE"), it was constrained to some
specific qdiscs.

With some extra care, we can extend this to all qdiscs,
so that typical traffic shaping solutions can benefit from
small batches (8 packets in this patch).

For example, HTB is often used on some multi queue device.
And bonding/team are multi queue devices...

Idea is to bulk-dequeue packets mapping to the same transmit queue.

This brings between 35 and 80 % performance increase in HTB setup
under pressure on a bonding setup :

1) NUMA node contention :   610,000 pps -> 1,110,000 pps
2) No node contention   : 1,380,000 pps -> 1,930,000 pps

Now we should work to add batches on the enqueue() side ;)

Eric Dumazet 520ac30f45 net_sched: drop packets after root qdisc lock is released
Qdisc performance suffers when packets are dropped at enqueue()
time because drops (kfree_skb()) are done while qdisc lock is held,
delaying a dequeue() draining the queue.

Nominal throughput can be reduced by 50 % when this happens,
at a time we would like the dequeue() to proceed as fast as possible.

Even FQ is vulnerable to this problem, while one of FQ goals was
to provide some flow isolation.

This patch adds a 'struct sk_buff **to_free' parameter to all
qdisc->enqueue(), and in qdisc_drop() helper.

I measured a performance increase of up to 12 %, but this patch
is a prereq so that future batches in enqueue() can fly.

Eric Dumazet 1b5c5493e3 net_sched: add the ability to defer skb freeing
qdisc are changed under RTNL protection and often
while blocking BH and root qdisc spinlock.

When lots of skbs need to be dropped, we free
them under these locks causing TX/RX freezes,
and more generally latency spikes.

This commit adds rtnl_kfree_skbs(), used to queue
skbs for deferred freeing.

Actual freeing happens right after RTNL is released,
with appropriate scheduling points.

rtnl_qdisc_drop() can also be used in place
of disc_drop() when RTNL is held.

qdisc_reset_queue() and __qdisc_reset_queue() get
the new behavior, so standard qdiscs like pfifo, pfifo_fast...
have their ->reset() method automatically handled.

AFAICS a lot of the netif_trans_update() invocations are now useless

mq/mqprio have their own ways to report qlen/drops by folding stats on
all their queues, with appropriate locking.

A second problem is that qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() calls qdisc_lookup()
without proper locking : concurrent qdisc updates could corrupt the list
that qdisc_match_from_root() parses to find a qdisc given its handle.

Fix first problem adding a TCQ_F_NOPARENT qdisc flag that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can use to abort its tree traversal,
as soon as it meets a mq/mqprio qdisc children.

Second problem can be fixed by RCU protection.
Qdisc are already freed after RCU grace period, so qdisc_list_add() and
qdisc_list_del() simply have to use appropriate rcu list variants.

A future patch will add a per struct netdev_queue list anchor, so that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can have more efficient lookups.

5772e9a346 ("qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE").

Before that commit, the quota in __qdisc_run() were in packets as
dequeue_skb() would only dequeue a single packet, that assumption
broke with bulk dequeue.

We choose not to account for the number of packets inside the TSO/GSO
packets (accessable via "skb_gso_segs").  As the previous fairness
also had this "defect". Thus, GSO/TSO packets counts as a single
packet.

Further more, we choose to slack on accuracy, by allowing a bulk
dequeue try_bulk_dequeue_skb() to exceed the "packets" limit, only
limited by the BQL bytelimit.  This is done because BQL prefers to get
its full budget for appropriate feedback from TX completion.

In future, we might consider reworking this further and, if it allows,
switch to a time-based model, as suggested by Eric. Right now, we only
restore old semantics.

Joint work with Eric, Hannes, Daniel and Jesper.  Hannes wrote the
first patch in cooperation with Daniel and Jesper.  Eric rewrote the
patch.

Eric Dumazet 0287587884 net: better IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE support
Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.

Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.

Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y

The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.

As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.

This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.

Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :

	dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
	netif_keep_dst(dev);

Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.

The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Eric Dumazet 55a93b3ea7 qdisc: validate skb without holding lock
Validation of skb can be pretty expensive :

GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations.

We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus
can queue additional packets.

Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry
a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list,
or directly use an old one.

Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads
host.

Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu
cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.

Same if disabling TX checksum offload.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 808e7ac0bd qdisc: dequeue bulking also pickup GSO/TSO packets
The TSO and GSO segmented packets already benefit from bulking
on their own.

The TSO packets have always taken advantage of the only updating
the tailptr once for a large packet.

The GSO segmented packets have recently taken advantage of
bulking xmit_more API, via merge commit 53fda7f7f9 ("Merge
branch 'xmit_list'"), specifically via commit 7f2e870f2a ("net:
Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.")
allowing qdisc requeue of remaining list.  And via commit
ce93718fb7 ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we
software segment GSO frames.").

This patch allow further bulking of TSO/GSO packets together,
when dequeueing from the qdisc.

Testing:
 Measuring HoL (Head-of-Line) blocking for TSO and GSO, with
netperf-wrapper. Bulking several TSO show no performance regressions
(requeues were in the area 32 requeues/sec).

Bulking several GSOs does show small regression or very small
improvement (requeues were in the area 8000 requeues/sec).

 Using ixgbe 10Gbit/s with GSO bulking, we can measure some additional
latency. Base-case, which is "normal" GSO bulking, sees varying
high-prio queue delay between 0.38ms to 0.47ms.  Bulking several GSOs
together, result in a stable high-prio queue delay of 0.50ms.

 Using igb at 100Mbit/s with GSO bulking, shows an improvement.
Base-case sees varying high-prio queue delay between 2.23ms to 2.35ms

Jesper Dangaard Brouer 5772e9a346 qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE
Based on DaveM's recent API work on dev_hard_start_xmit(), that allows
sending/processing an entire skb list.

This patch implements qdisc bulk dequeue, by allowing multiple packets
to be dequeued in dequeue_skb().

The optimization principle for this is two fold, (1) to amortize
locking cost and (2) avoid expensive tailptr update for notifying HW.
 (1) Several packets are dequeued while holding the qdisc root_lock,
amortizing locking cost over several packet.  The dequeued SKB list is
processed under the TXQ lock in dev_hard_start_xmit(), thus also
amortizing the cost of the TXQ lock.
 (2) Further more, dev_hard_start_xmit() will utilize the skb->xmit_more
API to delay HW tailptr update, which also reduces the cost per
packet.

One restriction of the new API is that every SKB must belong to the
same TXQ.  This patch takes the easy way out, by restricting bulk
dequeue to qdisc's with the TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE flag, that specifies the
qdisc only have attached a single TXQ.

Some detail about the flow; dev_hard_start_xmit() will process the skb
list, and transmit packets individually towards the driver (see
xmit_one()).  In case the driver stops midway in the list, the
remaining skb list is returned by dev_hard_start_xmit().  In
sch_direct_xmit() this returned list is requeued by dev_requeue_skb().

To avoid overshooting the HW limits, which results in requeuing, the
patch limits the amount of bytes dequeued, based on the drivers BQL
limits.  In-effect bulking will only happen for BQL enabled drivers.

Small amounts for extra HoL blocking (2x MTU/0.24ms) were
measured at 100Mbit/s, with bulking 8 packets, but the
oscillating nature of the measurement indicate something, like
sched latency might be causing this effect. More comparisons
show, that this oscillation goes away occationally. Thus, we
disregard this artifact completely and remove any "magic" bulking
limit.

For now, as a conservative approach, stop bulking when seeing TSO and
segmented GSO packets.  They already benefit from bulking on their own.
A followup patch add this, to allow easier bisect-ability for finding
regressions.

Jointed work with Hannes, Daniel and Florian.

In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
need to be handled correctly.

To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.

Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
to use the per cpu statistics.

Jason Wang f663dd9aaf net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwarding
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.
