Under stress, a close() on a listener can trigger the
WARN_ON(sk-&gt;sk_ack_backlog) in inet_csk_listen_stop()

We need to test if listener is still active before queueing
a child in inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add()

Create a common inet_child_forget() helper, and use it
from inet_csk_reqsk_queue_add() and inet_csk_listen_stop()

<title>net: align sk_refcnt on 128 bytes boundary</title>

sk-&gt;sk_refcnt is dirtied for every TCP/UDP incoming packet.
This is a performance issue if multiple cpus hit a common socket,
or multiple sockets are chained due to SO_REUSEPORT.

By moving sk_refcnt 8 bytes further, first 128 bytes of sockets
are mostly read. As they contain the lookup keys, this has
a considerable performance impact, as cpus can cache them.

These 8 bytes are not wasted, we use them as a place holder
for various fields, depending on the socket type.

Tested:
 SYN flood hitting a 16 RX queues NIC.
 TCP listener using 16 sockets and SO_REUSEPORT
 and SO_INCOMING_CPU for proper siloing.

 Could process 6.0 Mpps SYN instead of 4.2 Mpps

 Kernel profile looked like :
    11.68%  [kernel]  [k] sha_transform
     6.51%  [kernel]  [k] __inet_lookup_listener
     5.07%  [kernel]  [k] __inet_lookup_established
     4.15%  [kernel]  [k] memcpy_erms
     3.46%  [kernel]  [k] ipt_do_table
     2.74%  [kernel]  [k] fib_table_lookup
     2.54%  [kernel]  [k] tcp_make_synack
     2.34%  [kernel]  [k] tcp_conn_request
     2.05%  [kernel]  [k] __netif_receive_skb_core
     2.03%  [kernel]  [k] kmem_cache_alloc

inet_reqsk_alloc() is used to allocate a temporary request
in order to generate a SYNACK with a cookie. Then later,
syncookie validation also uses a temporary request.

These paths already took a reference on listener refcount,
we can avoid a couple of atomic operations.

<title>tcp/dccp: add SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU flag for request sockets</title>

<content type='text'>
Before letting request sockets being put in TCP/DCCP regular
ehash table, we need to add either :

- SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU flag to their kmem_cache
- add RCU grace period before freeing them.

Since we carefully respected the SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU protocol
like ESTABLISH and TIMEWAIT sockets, use it here.

req_prot_init() being only used by TCP and DCCP, I did not add
a new slab_flags into their rsk_prot, but reuse prot-&gt;slab_flags

Since all reqsk_alloc() users are correctly dealing with a failure,
add the __GFP_NOWARN flag to avoid traces under pressure.

This control variable was set at first listen(fd, backlog)
call, but not updated if application tried to increase or decrease
backlog. It made sense at the time listener had a non resizeable
hash table.

Also rounding to powers of two was not very friendly.

It is enough to check listener sk_state, no need for an extra

max_qlen_log can be moved into struct request_sock_queue

We can remove syn_wait_lock and the alignment it enforced.
