<title>net: add per-cpu storage and net-&gt;core_stats</title>

<id>625788b5844511cf4c30cffa7fa0bc3a69cebc82</id>
<content type='text'>
Before adding yet another possibly contended atomic_long_t,
it is time to add per-cpu storage for existing ones:
 dev-&gt;tx_dropped, dev-&gt;rx_dropped, and dev-&gt;rx_nohandler

Because many devices do not have to increment such counters,
allocate the per-cpu storage on demand, so that dev_get_stats()
does not have to spend considerable time folding zero counters.

Note that some drivers have abused these counters which
were supposed to be only used by core networking stack.

v4: should use per_cpu_ptr() in dev_get_stats() (Jakub)
v3: added a READ_ONCE() in netdev_core_stats_alloc() (Paolo)
v2: add a missing include (reported by kernel test robot &lt;lkp@intel.com&gt;)
    Change in netdev_core_stats_alloc() (Jakub)

<title>net: remove 'fallback' argument from dev-&gt;ndo_select_queue()</title>

<id>a350eccee5830d9a1f29e393a88dc05a15326d44</id>
<content type='text'>
After the previous patch, all the callers of ndo_select_queue()
provide as a 'fallback' argument netdev_pick_tx.
The only exceptions are nested calls to ndo_select_queue(),
which pass down the 'fallback' available in the current scope
- still netdev_pick_tx.

We can drop such argument and replace fallback() invocation with
netdev_pick_tx(). This avoids an indirect call per xmit packet
in some scenarios (TCP syn, UDP unconnected, XDP generic, pktgen)
with device drivers implementing such ndo. It also clean the code
a bit.

Tested with ixgbe and CONFIG_FCOE=m

With pktgen using queue xmit:
threads		vanilla 	patched
		(kpps)		(kpps)
1		2334		2428
2		4166		4278
4		7895		8100

 v1 -&gt; v2:
 - rebased after helper's name change

<title>net: core: dev: Add extack argument to dev_open()</title>

<content type='text'>
In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's
necessary to route the extack to __dev_open() from diverse (possibly
indirect) callers. One prominent API through which the notification is
invoked is dev_open().

Therefore extend dev_open() with and extra extack argument and update
all users. Most of the calls end up just encoding NULL, but bond and
team drivers have the extack readily available.
