When the high_thresh limit is reached we try to toss the 'oldest'
incomplete fragment queues until memory limits are below the low_thresh
value. This happens in softirq/packet processing context.
This has two drawbacks:
1) processors might evict a queue that was about to be completed
by another cpu, because they will compete wrt. resource usage and
resource reclaim.
2) LRU list maintenance is expensive.
But when constantly overloaded, even the 'least recently used' element is
recent, so removing 'lru' queue first is not 'fairer' than removing any
other fragment queue.
This moves eviction out of the fast path:
When the low threshold is reached, a work queue is scheduled
which then iterates over the table and removes the queues that exceed
the memory limits of the namespace. It sets a new flag called
INET_FRAG_EVICTED on the evicted queues so the proper counters will get
incremented when the queue is forcefully expired.
When the high threshold is reached, no more fragment queues are
created until we're below the limit again.
The LRU list is now unused and will be removed in a followup patch.
Joint work with Nikolay Aleksandrov.

First step to move eviction handling into a work queue.
We lose two spots that accounted evicted fragments in MIB counters.
Accounting will be restored since the upcoming work-queue evictor
invokes the frag queue timer callbacks instead.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains updates for your net-next tree,
they are:
1) Use kvfree() helper function from x_tables, from Eric Dumazet.
2) Remove extra timer from the conntrack ecache extension, use a
workqueue instead to redeliver lost events to userspace instead,
from Florian Westphal.
3) Removal of the ulog targets for ebtables and iptables. The nflog
infrastructure superseded this almost 9 years ago, time to get rid
of this code.
4) Replace the list of loggers by an array now that we can only have
two possible non-overlapping logger flavours, ie. kernel ring buffer
and netlink logging.
5) Move Eric Dumazet's log buffer code to nf_log to reuse it from
all of the supported per-family loggers.
6) Consolidate nf_log_packet() as an unified interface for packet logging.
After this patch, if the struct nf_loginfo is available, it explicitly
selects the logger that is used.
7) Move ip and ip6 logging code from xt_LOG to the corresponding
per-family loggers. Thus, x_tables and nf_tables share the same code
for packet logging.
8) Add generic ARP packet logger, which is used by nf_tables. The
format aims to be consistent with the output of xt_LOG.
9) Add generic bridge packet logger. Again, this is used by nf_tables
and it routes the packets to the real family loggers. As a result,
we get consistent logging format for the bridge family. The ebt_log
logging code has been intentionally left in place not to break
backward compatibility since the logging output differs from xt_LOG.
10) Update nft_log to explicitly request the required family logger when
needed.
11) Finish nft_log so it supports arp, ip, ip6, bridge and inet families.
Allowing selection between netlink and kernel buffer ring logging.
12) Several fixes coming after the netfilter core logging changes spotted
by robots.
13) Use IS_ENABLED() macros whenever possible in the netfilter tree,
from Duan Jiong.
14) Removal of a couple of unnecessary branch before kfree, from Fabian
Frederick.

netdev_name() returns dev->name only when the net_device is in
NETREG_REGISTERED state.
However, dev->name is always populated on creation, so we can easily use
it.
There are two cases when there's no real name - when it's an empty string
or when the name is in form of "eth%d", then netdev_name() returns "unnamed
net_device".

Commit 5eeaf1f18973 (cpufreq: Fix build error on some platforms that
use cpufreq_for_each_*) moved function cpufreq_next_valid() to a public
header. Warnings are now generated when objects including that header
are built with -Wsign-compare (as an out-of-tree module might be):
.../include/linux/cpufreq.h: In function ‘cpufreq_next_valid’:
.../include/linux/cpufreq.h:519:27: warning: comparison between signed
and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
while ((*pos)->frequency != CPUFREQ_TABLE_END)
^
.../include/linux/cpufreq.h:520:25: warning: comparison between signed
and unsigned integer expressions [-Wsign-compare]
if ((*pos)->frequency != CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID)
^
Constants CPUFREQ_ENTRY_INVALID and CPUFREQ_TABLE_END are signed, but
are used with unsigned member 'frequency' of cpufreq_frequency_table.
Update the macro definitions to be explicitly unsigned to match their
use.
This also corrects potentially wrong behavior of clk_rate_table_iter()
if unsigned long is wider than usigned int.

Many multicast sources can have the same port which can result in a very
large list when hashing by port only. Hash by address and port instead
if this is the case. This makes multicast more similar to unicast.
On a 24-core machine receiving from 500 multicast sockets on the same
port, before this patch 80% of system CPU was used up by spin locking
and only ~25% of packets were successfully delivered.
With this patch, all packets are delivered and kernel overhead is ~8%
system CPU on spinlocks.

This patch implements section 8.1.31. of RFC6458, which adds support
for setting/retrieving SCTP_DEFAULT_SNDINFO:
Applications that wish to use the sendto() system call may wish
to specify a default set of parameters that would normally be
supplied through the inclusion of ancillary data. This socket
option allows such an application to set the default sctp_sndinfo
structure. The application that wishes to use this socket option
simply passes the sctp_sndinfo structure (defined in Section 5.3.4)
to this call. The input parameters accepted by this call include
snd_sid, snd_flags, snd_ppid, and snd_context. The snd_flags
parameter is composed of a bitwise OR of SCTP_UNORDERED, SCTP_EOF,
and SCTP_SENDALL. The snd_assoc_id field specifies the association
to which to apply the parameters. For a one-to-many style socket,
any of the predefined constants are also allowed in this field.
The field is ignored for one-to-one style sockets.

Recent optimistic spinning additions to rwsem provide significant performance
benefits on many workloads on large machines. The cost of it was increasing
the size of the rwsem structure by up to 128 bits.
However, now that the previous patches in this series bring the overhead of
struct optimistic_spin_queue to 32 bits, this patch reorders some fields in
struct rw_semaphore such that we can reduce the overhead of the rwsem structure
by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems).
The extra overhead required for rwsem optimistic spinning would now be up
to 8 additional bytes instead of up to 16 bytes. Additionally, the size of
rwsem would now be more in line with mutexes.

There are two definitions of struct rw_semaphore, one in linux/rwsem.h
and one in linux/rwsem-spinlock.h.
For some reason they have different names for the initial field. This
makes it impossible to use C99 named initialization for
__RWSEM_INITIALIZER() -- or we have to duplicate that entire thing
along with the structure definitions.
The simpler patch is renaming the rwsem-spinlock variant to match the
regular rwsem.
This allows us to switch to C99 named initialization.

The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes.
In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.
By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.
This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

The SO_TIMESTAMPING API defines option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HW.
This feature is deprecated. It should not be implemented by new
device drivers. Existing drivers do not implement it, either --
with one exception.
Driver developers are encouraged to expose the NIC hw clock as a
PTP HW clock source, instead, and synchronize system time to the
HW source.
The control flag cannot be removed due to being part of the ABI, nor
can the structure scm_timestamping that is returned. Due to the one
legacy driver, the internal datapath and structure are not removed.
This patch only clearly marks the interface as deprecated. Device
drivers should always return a syststamp value of zero.

Since Yuchung's 9b44190dc11 (tcp: refactor F-RTO), tcp_enter_cwr is always
called with set_ssthresh = 1. Thus, we can remove this argument from
tcp_enter_cwr. Further, as we remove this one, tcp_init_cwnd_reduction
is then always called with set_ssthresh = true, and so we can get rid of
this argument as well.

Based on a patch by David Herrmann.
The name_assign_type attribute gives hints where the interface name of a
given net-device comes from. These values are currently defined:
NET_NAME_ENUM:
The ifname is provided by the kernel with an enumerated
suffix, typically based on order of discovery. Names may
be reused and unpredictable.
NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE:
The ifname has been assigned by the kernel in a predictable way
that is guaranteed to avoid reuse and always be the same for a
given device. Examples include statically created devices like
the loopback device and names deduced from hardware properties
(including being given explicitly by the firmware). Names
depending on the order of discovery, or in any other way on the
existence of other devices, must not be marked as PREDICTABLE.
NET_NAME_USER:
The ifname was provided by user-space during net-device setup.
NET_NAME_RENAMED:
The net-device has been renamed from userspace. Once this type is set,
it cannot change again.
NET_NAME_UNKNOWN:
This is an internal placeholder to indicate that we yet haven't yet
categorized the name. It will not be exposed to userspace, rather
-EINVAL is returned.
The aim of these patches is to improve user-space renaming of interfaces. As
a general rule, userspace must rename interfaces to guarantee that names stay
the same every time a given piece of hardware appears (at boot, or when
attaching it). However, there are several situations where userspace should
not perform the renaming, and that depends on both the policy of the local
admin, but crucially also on the nature of the current interface name.
If an interface was created in repsonse to a userspace request, and userspace
already provided a name, we most probably want to leave that name alone. The
main instance of this is wifi-P2P devices created over nl80211, which currently
have a long-standing bug where they are getting renamed by udev. We label such
names NET_NAME_USER.
If an interface, unbeknown to us, has already been renamed from userspace, we
most probably want to leave also that alone. This will typically happen when
third-party plugins (for instance to udev, but the interface is generic so could
be from anywhere) renames the interface without informing udev about it. A
typical situation is when you switch root from an installer or an initrd to the
real system and the new instance of udev does not know what happened before
the switch. These types of problems have caused repeated issues in the past. To
solve this, once an interface has been renamed, its name is labelled
NET_NAME_RENAMED.
In many cases, the kernel is actually able to name interfaces in such a
way that there is no need for userspace to rename them. This is the case when
the enumeration order of devices, or in fact any other (non-parent) device on
the system, can not influence the name of the interface. Examples include
statically created devices, or any naming schemes based on hardware properties
of the interface. In this case the admin may prefer to use the kernel-provided
names, and to make that possible we label such names NET_NAME_PREDICTABLE.
We want the kernel to have tho possibilty of performing predictable interface
naming itself (and exposing to userspace that it has), as the information
necessary for a proper naming scheme for a certain class of devices may not
be exposed to userspace.
The case where renaming is almost certainly desired, is when the kernel has
given the interface a name using global device enumeration based on order of
discovery (ethX, wlanY, etc). These naming schemes are labelled NET_NAME_ENUM.
Lastly, a fallback is left as NET_NAME_UNKNOWN, to indicate that a driver has
not yet been ported. This is mostly useful as a transitionary measure, allowing
us to label the various naming schemes bit by bit.

Most CAN controllers have a support for ignoring ACK absence. Some of
them refer to this feature as a self test mode (e. g. SJA1000) and some
include it as a part of a loopback mode (e. g. MCP2510).
Setting the introduced flag via netlink should make CAN controller
perform a successful transmission, even if there is no acknowledgement
(dominant ACK bit) received.

The code in neigh_sysctl_register() relies on a specific layout of
struct neigh_table, namely that the 'gc_*' variables are directly
following the 'parms' member in a specific order. The code, though,
expresses this in the most ugly way.
Get rid of the ugly casts and use the 'tbl' pointer to get a handle to
the table. This way we can refer to the 'gc_*' variables directly.

An updater may interfer with the dumping of any of the object lists.
Fix this by using a per-net generation counter and use the
nl_dump_check_consistent() interface so the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR flag is set
to notify userspace that it has to restart the dump since an updater
has interfered.
This patch also replaces the existing consistency checking code in the
rule dumping path since it is broken. Basically, the value that the
dump callback returns is not propagated to userspace via
netlink_dump_start().
