API compliance scanning with coccinelle flagged:
Converting milliseconds to jiffies by "val * HZ / 1000" is technically
is not a clean solution as it does not handle all corner cases correctly.
By changing the conversion to use msecs_to_jiffies(val) conversion is
correct in all cases.
in the current code:
mod_timer(&self->rx_defer_timer, jiffies + (10 * HZ / 1000));
for HZ < 100 (e.g. CONFIG_HZ == 64|32 in alpha) this effectively results
in no delay at all.
Patch was compile tested for x86_64_defconfig (implies CONFIG_USB_IRDA=m)
Patch is against 4.1-rc4 (localversion-next is -next-20150522)

Network managers like netifd (used in OpenWRT for instance) try to
configure interface options after creation but before setting the
interface up.
Unfortunately the sysfs / bridge currently only allows to configure the
hash_max and multicast_router options when the bridge interface is up.
But since br_multicast_init() doesn't start any timers and only sets
default values and initializes timers it should be save to reconfigure
the default values after that, before things actually get active after
the bridge is set up.

since commit 6aafeef03b9d ("netfilter: push reasm skb through instead of
original frag skbs") we will end up sometimes re-fragmenting skbs
that we've reassembled.
ipv6 defrag preserves the original skbs using the skb frag list, i.e. as long
as the skb frag list is preserved there is no problem since we keep
original geometry of fragments intact.
However, in the rare case where the frag list is munged or skb
is linearized, we might send larger fragments than what we originally
received.
A router in the path might then send packet-too-big errors even if
sender never sent fragments exceeding the reported mtu:
mtu 1500 - 1500:1400 - 1400:1280 - 1280
A R1 R2 B
1 - A sends to B, fragment size 1400
2 - R2 sends pkttoobig error for 1280
3 - A sends to B, fragment size 1280
4 - R2 sends pkttoobig error for 1280 again because it sees fragments of size 1400.
make sure ip6_fragment always caps MTU at largest packet size seen
when defragmented skb is forwarded.

====================
ipv6: Only create RTF_CACHE route after encountering pmtu exception
v4 -> v5:
- Patch 1 is new. Clean up the ipv6_select_ident() and ip6_fragment().
- Further simplify the newly added rt6_get_pcpu_route(). If there is a
'prev' after cmpxchg, return prev instead of the newly created percpu
clone.
v3 -> v4:
- Patch 8 is new. It keeps track of the DST_NOCACHE routes in a list to handle
the iface down/unregister event.
- Remove rcu from the newly added rt6i_pcpu variable. It is not needed
because it has already been protected by the existing reader/writer lock.
- Thanks to 'Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>' for testing the FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH
patches.
v2 -> v3:
- Patch 5 to 7 are new. They take care of cases where the daddr in
skb is not the one used to do the route look-up. There is also
related changes to rt6_nexthop() since v2 which is in patch 2/9.
Thanks to 'Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg>' for pointing it out.
- Fix a few problems in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu(), like setting the expire
and mtu before inserting to the tree and don't do dst_destroy() after
tree insertion failure. Also update the rt6i_pmtu in fib6_add_rt2node().
Thanks to 'Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>' for pointing
it out.
- Merge ip6_pmtu_rt_cache_alloc() into ip6_rt_cache_alloc().
v1 -> v2:
- Move the /128 route bug fixes to another series (accepted).
- Create a function for checking (rt6i_flags & (RTF_NONEXTHOP | RTF_GATEWAY)).
- Avoid shuffling the skb network_header. Instead, change the function
signature to take iph instead of skb.
- Many Thanks to 'Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org>' on
reviewing v1 and v2 and giving advice.

This series is to avoid creating a RTF_CACHE route whenever we are consulting
the fib6 tree with a new destination. Instead, only create RTF_CACHE route
when we see a pmtu exception.
Out of all ipv6 RTF_CACHE routes that are created, the percentage that has a
different mtu is very small. In one of our end-user facing proxy server,
only 1k out of 80k RTF_CACHE routes have a smaller MTU. For our DC
traffic, there is no mtu exception.
A large fib6 tree has problems like, 'ip -6 r show' takes a long time.
gc may kick in too often. Also, when a service has restarted and a lot
of new TCP conn requests come in, it creates pressure on the tree by inserting
a lot of RTF_CACHE in a short time and it currently requires a write lock
to do that.
The first few patches are prep works to remove assumption that the
returned rt is always RTF_CACHE.
The patch 'ipv6: Only create RTF_CACHE routes after encountering pmtu exception'
do the lazy RTF_CACHE route creation.
The following patches added percpu rt to compensate the performance loss after
doing the RTF_CACHE lazy creation.
Here is some numbers of the udpflood test. The udpflood has been
slightly modified to have a time limit instead of count limit.
A /64 via gateway route is used for the test. Each udpflood uses 10000 dst
addresses. The dst addresses of different udpflood processes do not overlap
with each other.

10 61M 61M

The neighbor look-up used to depend on the rt6i_gateway (if
there is a gateway) or the rt6i_dst (if it is a RTF_CACHE clone)
as the nexthop address. Note that rt6i_dst is set to fl6->daddr
for the RTF_CACHE clone where fl6->daddr is the one used to do
the route look-up.
Now, we only create RTF_CACHE clone after encountering exception.
When doing the neighbor look-up with a route that is neither a gateway
nor a RTF_CACHE clone, the daddr in skb will be used as the nexthop.
In some cases, the daddr in skb is not the one used to do
the route look-up. One example is in ip_vs_dr_xmit_v6() where the
real nexthop server address is different from the one in the skb.
This patch is going to follow the IPv4 approach and ask the
ip6_pol_route() callers to set the FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH properly.
In the next patch, ip6_pol_route() will honor the FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH
and create a RTF_CACHE clone.

When creating a RTF_CACHE route, RTF_ANYCAST is set based on rt6i_dst.
Also, rt6i_gateway is always set to the nexthop while the nexthop
could be a gateway or the rt6i_dst.addr.
After removing the rt6i_dst and rt6i_src dependency in the last patch,
we also need to stop the caller from depending on rt6i_gateway and

mlx4: Enable single ported VFs over IB ports
This series further enhances the support for mlx4 single ported VFs
introduced in 3.15 to work over IB ports too.
Just as quick reminder, the ConnectX3 device family exposes one PCI device
which serves both ports.
This can be non-optimal under virtualization schemes where the admin
would like the VF to expose one interface to the VM, etc.
Since all the VF interaction with the firmware passes through the PF
driver, we can emulate to the VF they have one port, and further create
a set of the VFs which act on port1 of the device and another set which
acts on port2.

As part of enabling single ported VFs over IB ports we need to handle
some of the flows for generting EQ events for VFs which don't come
into play under Eth ports.
This mainly includes port management events derived from changes of the
phyiscal port (lid change, client re-register, down/up, etc), VF pkey table
changes and VF guid changes initiated by the IB driver.
(1) make sure that events are generated only for VFs sitting on
the relevant physical port (under the ALL_SLAVES flow).
(2) before generating the event, convert from physical (one or two)
to VF port (always equals one).

When multiplexling a MAD sent from VF, we should convert the port used
by the guest to send the packet to the actual physical port which will be
used to transmit the packet, before building the relevant address-handle (AH).
This is needed under VPI for single ported VFs, since the code that builds
the AH (mlx4_ib_query_ah()) makes decisions based on the input port. If we
use the port number provided by the guest, it might have different protocol
vs. the one this packat has to go from, and hence the result could be wrong.
So far, the conversion was done after the AH was built and it worked for
single ported Eth VFs which were not enabled under VPI. When adding support
for single ported IB VFs and VPI, we hit that.

Single port VFs always provide port = 1 (even if the actual physical
port used is port 2). As such, we need to convert the port provided
by the VF to the physical port before calling into the firmware.
It turns out that the Linux mlx4 VF RoCE driver maintains a copy of
the GID table and hence this change became critical only for single
ported IB VFs, but it could be needed for other RoCE VF drivers too.

pktgen: cleanups and introducing new samples/pktgen scripts
v3:
- Aborted v2 send due it was not generating diff stat
(this is a bug in stg-mail, if not in the root directory)
v2: address nitpicks from Cong Wang
- Remove useless cat's, but keep them for old pgset()
- Comment on: Due to pgctrl, cannot use exit code $? from grep
- Use arithmetic compare in pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh
This patchset is focused on making pktgen easier to use and better
documented. It contains a number of documentation updates and minor
changes to pktgen. The major contribution is introduction of common
helper function for sample scripts.
Instead of the old pgset() function, three new shell functions for
configuring the different components of pktgen are introduced:
pg_ctrl(), pg_thread() and pg_set().
The new functions correspond to pktgens different components.
* pg_ctrl() control "pgctrl" (/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl)
* pg_thread() control the kernel threads and binding to devices
* pg_set() control setup of individual devices
Helpers also provide consistent parameter parsing across the sample
scripts.
Usage example:
./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh -i eth41 -m 00:12:C0:02:AC:5A -d 192.168.41.2
Usage: ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh [-vx] -i ethX
-i : ($DEV) output interface/device (required)
-s : ($PKT_SIZE) packet size
-d : ($DEST_IP) destination IP
-m : ($DST_MAC) destination MAC-addr

This script pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_netif_receive.sh is a benchmark
script, which can be used for benchmarking part of the network stack.
This can be used for performance improving or catching regression in
that area.
The script is developed for benchmarking ingress qdisc path, original
idea by Alexei Starovoitov. This script don't really need any
hardware. This is achieved via the recently introduced stack inject
feature "xmit_mode netif_receive". See commit 62f64aed622b6 ("pktgen:
introduce xmit_mode '<start_xmit|netif_receive>'").

Add the pktgen samples script pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh
that demonstrates how to acheive maximum performance.
If correctly tuned[1] single CPU 10Gbit/s wirespeed small pkts is
possible[2] which is 14.88Mpps. The trick is to take advantage of the
"burst" feature introduced in commit 38b2cf2982dc73 ("net: pktgen:
packet bursting via skb->xmit_more").

Add the pktgen samples script pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh that
demonstrates generating packets on multiqueue NICs.
Specifically notice the options "-t" that specifies how many
kernel threads to activate. Also notice the flag QUEUE_MAP_CPU,
which cause the SKB TX queue to be mapped to the CPU running the
kernel thread. For best scalability people are also encourage to
map NIC IRQ /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity to CPU number.
Usage example with "-t" 4 threads and help:
./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -t 4
Usage: ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh [-vx] -i ethX
-i : ($DEV) output interface/device (required)
-s : ($PKT_SIZE) packet size
-d : ($DEST_IP) destination IP
-m : ($DST_MAC) destination MAC-addr
-t : ($THREADS) threads to start
-c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB
-b : ($BURST) HW level bursting of SKBs
-v : ($VERBOSE) verbose
-x : ($DEBUG) debug
Removing pktgen.conf-2-1 and pktgen.conf-2-2 as these examples
should be covered now.

Add the first basic pktgen samples script pktgen_sample01_simple.sh,
which demonstrates the a simple use of the helper functions.
Removing pktgen.conf-1-1 as that example should be covered now.
The naming scheme pktgen_sampleNN, where NN is a number, should encourage
reading the samples in a specific order.
Script cause pktgen sending with a single thread and single interface,
and introduce flow variation via random UDP source port.
Usage example and help:
./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -d 192.168.8.2
Usage: ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh [-vx] -i ethX
-i : ($DEV) output interface/device (required)

Preparing for removing existing samples/pktgen/ scripts, and
replacing these with easier to use samples.
This commit provides two helper shell files, that can
be "included" by shell source'ing. Namely "functions.sh"
and "parameters.sh".
The parameters.sh file support easy and consistant parameter
parsing across the sample scripts. Usage example is printed on
errors.
The functions.sh file provides, three new shell functions for
configuring the different components of pktgen: pg_ctrl(),
pg_thread() and pg_set(). A slightly improved version of the old
pgset() function is also provided for backwards compat.
The new functions correspond to pktgens different components.
* pg_ctrl() control "pgctrl" (/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl)
* pg_thread() control the kernel threads and binding to devices
* pg_set() control setup of individual devices

Giving /proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl an invalid command just returns shell
success and prints a warning in dmesg. This is not very useful for
shell scripting, as it can only detect the error by parsing dmesg.
Instead return -EINVAL when the command is unknown, as this provides
userspace shell scripting a way of detecting this.
Also bump version tag to 2.75, because (1) reading /proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl
output this version number which would allow to detect this small
semantic change, and (2) because the pktgen version tag have not been
updated since 2010.

The pktgen.txt documentation still claimed that adding same device to
multiple threads were not supported, but it have been since 2008 via
commit e6fce5b916cd7 ("pktgen: multiqueue etc.").
Document this and describe the naming scheme dev@X, as the procfile name
still need to be unique.
