When CPU's are added and removed, ibmvnic devices will reassign
hint values. Introduce a new cpu hotplug state CPUHP_IBMVNIC_DEAD
to signal to ibmvnic devices that the CPU has been removed and it
is time to reset affinity hint assignments. On the other hand,
when CPU's are being added, add a state instance to
CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_DYN which will trigger a reassignment of affinity
hints once the new CPU's are online. This implementation is based
on the virtio_net driver.

CQE compression feature improves performance by reducing PCI bandwidth
bottleneck on CQEs write.
Enhanced CQE compression introduced in ConnectX-6 and it aims to reduce
CPU utilization of SW side packets decompression by eliminating the
need to rewrite ownership bit, which is likely to cost a cache-miss, is
replaced by validity byte handled solely by HW.
Another advantage of the enhanced feature is that session packets are
available to SW as soon as a single CQE slot is filled, instead of
waiting for session to close, this improves packet latency from NIC to
host.
Performance:
Following are tested scenarios and reults comparing basic and enahnced
CQE compression.
setup: IXIA 100GbE connected directly to port 0 and port 1 of
ConnectX-6 Dx 100GbE dual port.
Case #1 RX only, single flow goes to single queue:
IRQ rate reduced by ~ 30%, CPU utilization improved by 2%.
Case #2 IP forwarding from port 1 to port 0 single flow goes to
single queue:
Avg latency improved from 60us to 21us, frame loss improved from 0.5% to 0.0%.
Case #3 IP forwarding from port 1 to port 0 Max Throughput IXIA sends
100%, 8192 UDP flows, goes to 24 queues:
Enhanced is equal or slightly better than basic.
Testing the basic compression feature with this patch shows there is
no perfrormance degradation of the basic compression feature.

skb->vlan_present seems redundant.
We can instead derive it from this boolean expression:
vlan_present = skb->vlan_proto != 0 || skb->vlan_tci != 0
Add a new union, to access both fields in a single load/store
when possible.
union {
u32 vlan_all;
struct {
__be16 vlan_proto;
__u16 vlan_tci;
};
};

In sockops, the skb is also available to the bpf prog during

that the hwtstamp will be useful to the sockops prog to better

When the bridge is offloaded to hardware, FDB entries are learned and
aged-out by the hardware. Some device drivers synchronize the hardware
and software FDBs by generating switchdev events towards the bridge.
When a port is locked, the hardware must not learn autonomously, as
otherwise any host will blindly gain authorization. Instead, the
hardware should generate events regarding hosts that are trying to gain
authorization and their MAC addresses should be notified by the device
driver as locked FDB entries towards the bridge driver.
Allow device drivers to notify the bridge driver about such entries by
extending the 'switchdev_notifier_fdb_info' structure with the 'locked'
bit. The bit can only be set by device drivers and not by the bridge
driver.
Prevent a locked entry from being installed if MAB is not enabled on the
bridge port.
If an entry already exists in the bridge driver, reject the locked entry
if the current entry does not have the "locked" flag set or if it points
to a different port. The same semantics are implemented in the software
data path.

rxrpc changes
David Howells says:
====================
rxrpc: Increasing SACK size and moving away from softirq, part 1
AF_RXRPC has some issues that need addressing:
(1) The SACK table has a maximum capacity of 255, but for modern networks
that isn't sufficient. This is hard to increase in the upstream code
because of the way the application thread is coupled to the softirq
and retransmission side through a ring buffer. Adjustments to the rx
protocol allows a capacity of up to 8192, and having a ring
sufficiently large to accommodate that would use an excessive amount
of memory as this is per-call.
(2) Processing ACKs in softirq mode causes the ACKs get conflated, with
only the most recent being considered. Whilst this has the upside
that the retransmission algorithm only needs to deal with the most
recent ACK, it causes DATA transmission for a call to be very bursty
because DATA packets cannot be transmitted in softirq mode. Rather
transmission must be delegated to either the application thread or a
workqueue, so there tend to be sudden bursts of traffic for any
particular call due to scheduling delays.
(3) All crypto in a single call is done in series; however, each DATA
packet is individually encrypted so encryption and decryption of large
calls could be parallelised if spare CPU resources are available.
This is the first of a number of sets of patches that try and address them.
The overall aims of these changes include:
(1) To get rid of the TxRx ring and instead pass the packets round in
queues (eg. sk_buff_head). On the Tx side, each ACK packet comes with
a SACK table that can be parsed as-is, so there's no particular need
to maintain our own; we just have to refer to the ACK.
On the Rx side, we do need to maintain a SACK table with one bit per
entry - but only if packets go missing - and we don't want to have to
perform a complex transformation to get the information into an ACK
packet.
(2) To try and move almost all processing of received packets out of the
softirq handler and into a high-priority kernel I/O thread. Only the
transferral of packets would be left there. I would still use the
encap_rcv hook to receive packets as there's a noticeable performance
drop from letting the UDP socket put the packets into its own queue
and then getting them out of there.
(3) To make the I/O thread also do all the transmission. The app thread
would be responsible for packaging the data into packets and then
buffering them for the I/O thread to transmit. This would make it
easier for the app thread to run ahead of the I/O thread, and would
mean the I/O thread is less likely to have to wait around for a new
packet to come available for transmission.
(4) To logically partition the socket/UAPI/KAPI side of things from the
I/O side of things. The local endpoint, connection, peer and call
objects would belong to the I/O side. The socket side would not then
touch the private internals of calls and suchlike and would not change
their states. It would only look at the send queue, receive queue and
a way to pass a message to cause an abort.
(5) To remove as much locking, synchronisation, barriering and atomic ops
as possible from the I/O side. Exclusion would be achieved by
limiting modification of state to the I/O thread only. Locks would
still need to be used in communication with the UDP socket and the
AF_RXRPC socket API.
(6) To provide crypto offload kernel threads that, when there's slack in
the system, can see packets that need crypting and provide
parallelisation in dealing with them.
(7) To remove the use of system timers. Since each timer would then send
a poke to the I/O thread, which would then deal with it when it had
the opportunity, there seems no point in using system timers if,
instead, a list of timeouts can be sensibly consulted. An I/O thread
only then needs to schedule with a timeout when it is idle.
(8) To use zero-copy sendmsg to send packets. This would make use of the
I/O thread being the sole transmitter on the socket to manage the
dead-reckoning sequencing of the completion notifications. There is a
problem with zero-copy, though: the UDP socket doesn't handle running
out of option memory very gracefully.
With regard to this first patchset, the changes made include:
(1) Some fixes, including a fallback for proc_create_net_single_write(),
setting ack.bufferSize to 0 in ACK packets and a fix for rxrpc
congestion management, which shouldn't be saving the cwnd value
between calls.
(2) Improvements in rxrpc tracepoints, including splitting the timer
tracepoint into a set-timer and a timer-expired trace.
(3) Addition of a new proc file to display some stats.
(4) Some code cleanups, including removing some unused bits and
unnecessary header inclusions.
(5) A change to the recently added UDP encap_err_rcv hook so that it has
the same signature as {ip,ipv6}_icmp_error(), and then just have rxrpc
point its UDP socket's hook directly at those.
(6) Definition of a new struct, rxrpc_txbuf, that is used to hold
transmissible packets of DATA and ACK type in a single 2KiB block
rather than using an sk_buff. This allows the buffer to be on a
number of queues simultaneously more easily, and also guarantees that
the entire block is in a single unit for zerocopy purposes and that
the data payload is aligned for in-place crypto purposes.
(7) ACK txbufs are allocated at proposal and queued for later transmission
rather than being stored in a single place in the rxrpc_call struct,
which means only a single ACK can be pending transmission at a time.
The queue is then drained at various points. This allows the ACK
generation code to be simplified.
(8) The Rx ring buffer is removed. When a jumbo packet is received (which
comprises a number of ordinary DATA packets glued together), it used
to be pointed to by the ring multiple times, with an annotation in a
side ring indicating which subpacket was in that slot - but this is no
longer possible. Instead, the packet is cloned once for each
subpacket, barring the last, and the range of data is set in the skb
private area. This makes it easier for the subpackets in a jumbo
packet to be decrypted in parallel.
(9) The Tx ring buffer is removed. The side annotation ring that held the
SACK information is also removed. Instead, in the event of packet
loss, the SACK data attached an ACK packet is parsed.
(10) Allocate an skcipher request when needed in the rxkad security class
rather than caching one in the rxrpc_call struct. This deals with a
race between externally-driven call disconnection getting rid of the
skcipher request and sendmsg/recvmsg trying to use it because they
haven't seen the completion yet. This is also needed to support
parallelisation as the skcipher request cannot be used by two or more
threads simultaneously.
(11) Call udp_sendmsg() and udpv6_sendmsg() directly rather than going
through kernel_sendmsg() so that we can provide our own iterator
(zerocopy explicitly doesn't work with a KVEC iterator). This also
lets us avoid the overhead of the security hook.

Allow a network interface to be renamed when the interface
is up.
As described in the netconsole documentation [1], when netconsole is
used as a built-in, it will bring up the specified interface as soon as
possible. As a result, user space will not be able to rename the
interface since the kernel disallows renaming of interfaces that are
administratively up unless the 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' private flag was set
by the kernel.
The original solution [2] to this problem was to add a new parameter to
the netconsole configuration parameters that allows renaming of
the interface used by netconsole while it is administratively up.
However, during the discussion that followed, it became apparent that we
have no reason to keep the current restriction and instead we should
allow user space to rename interfaces regardless of their administrative
state:
1. The restriction was put in place over 20 years ago when renaming was
only possible via IOCTL and before rtnetlink started notifying user
space about such changes like it does today.
2. The 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' flag was added over 3 years ago in version
5.2 and no regressions were reported.
3. In-kernel listeners to 'NETDEV_CHANGENAME' do not seem to care about
the administrative state of interface.
Therefore, allow user space to rename running interfaces by removing the
restriction and the associated 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' flag. Help in
possible triage by emitting a message to the kernel log that an
interface was renamed while UP.

rxrpc has a problem in its congestion management in that it saves the
congestion window size (cwnd) from one call to another, but if this is 0 at
the time is saved, then the next call may not actually manage to ever
transmit anything.
To this end:
(1) Don't save cwnd between calls, but rather reset back down to the
initial cwnd and re-enter slow-start if data transmission is idle for
more than an RTT.
(2) Preserve ssthresh instead, as that is a handy estimate of pipe
capacity. Knowing roughly when to stop slow start and enter
congestion avoidance can reduce the tendency to overshoot and drop
larger amounts of packets when probing.
In future, cwind growth also needs to be constrained when the window isn't
being filled due to being application limited.

Improve the tracking of which packets need to be transmitted by saving the
last ACK packet that we receive that has a populated soft-ACK table rather
than marking packets. Then we can step through the soft-ACK table and look
at the packets we've transmitted beyond that to determine which packets we
might want to retransmit.
We also look at the highest serial number that has been acked to try and
guess which packets we've transmitted the peer is likely to have seen. If
necessary, we send a ping to retrieve that number.
One downside that might be a problem is that we can't then compare the
previous acked/unacked state so easily in rxrpc_input_soft_acks() - which
is a potential problem for the slow-start algorithm.

Change the way the Tx queueing works to make the following ends easier to
achieve:
(1) The filling of packets, the encryption of packets and the transmission
of packets can be handled in parallel by separate threads, rather than
rxrpc_sendmsg() allocating, filling, encrypting and transmitting each
packet before moving onto the next one.
(2) Get rid of the fixed-size ring which sets a hard limit on the number
of packets that can be retained in the ring. This allows the number
of packets to increase without having to allocate a very large ring or
having variable-sized rings.
[Note: the downside of this is that it's then less efficient to locate
a packet for retransmission as we then have to step through a list and
examine each buffer in the list.]
(3) Allow the filler/encrypter to run ahead of the transmission window.
(4) Make it easier to do zero copy UDP from the packet buffers.
(5) Make it easier to do zero copy from userspace to the packet buffers -
and thence to UDP (only if for unauthenticated connections).
To that end, the following changes are made:
(1) Use the new rxrpc_txbuf struct instead of sk_buff for keeping packets
to be transmitted in. This allows them to be placed on multiple
queues simultaneously. An sk_buff isn't really necessary as it's
never passed on to lower-level networking code.
(2) Keep the transmissable packets in a linked list on the call struct
rather than in a ring. As a consequence, the annotation buffer isn't
used either; rather a flag is set on the packet to indicate ackedness.
(3) Use the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag to indicate that the last packet to be
transmitted has been queued. Add RXRPC_CALL_TX_ALL_ACKED to indicate
that all packets up to and including the last got hard acked.
(4) Wire headers are now stored in the txbuf rather than being concocted
on the stack and they're stored immediately before the data, thereby
allowing zerocopy of a single span.
(5) Don't bother with instant-resend on transmission failure; rather,
leave it for a timer or an ACK packet to trigger.

Get rid of the Rx ring and replace it with a pair of queues instead. One
queue gets the packets that are in-sequence and are ready for processing by
recvmsg(); the other queue gets the out-of-sequence packets for addition to
the first queue as the holes get filled.
The annotation ring is removed and replaced with a SACK table. The SACK
table has the bits set that correspond exactly to the sequence number of
the packet being acked. The SACK ring is copied when an ACK packet is
being assembled and rotated so that the first ACK is in byte 0.
Flow control handling is altered so that packets that are moved to the
in-sequence queue are hard-ACK'd even before they're consumed - and then
the Rx window size in the ACK packet (rsize) is shrunk down to compensate
(even going to 0 if the window is full).

Split up received jumbo packets into separate skbuffs by cloning the
original skbuff for each subpacket and setting the offset and length of the
data in that subpacket in the skbuff's private data. The subpackets are
then placed on the recvmsg queue separately. The security class then gets
to revise the offset and length to remove its metadata.
If we fail to clone a packet, we just drop it and let the peer resend it.
The original packet gets used for the final subpacket.
This should make it easier to handle parallel decryption of the subpackets.
It also simplifies the handling of lost or misordered packets in the
queuing/buffering loop as the possibility of overlapping jumbo packets no
longer needs to be considered.

Clean up the rxrpc_propose_ACK() function. If deferred PING ACK proposal
is split out, it's only really needed for deferred DELAY ACKs. All other
ACKs, bar terminal IDLE ACK are sent immediately. The deferred IDLE ACK
submission can be handled by conversion of a DELAY ACK into an IDLE ACK if
there's nothing to be SACK'd.
Also, because there's a delay between an ACK being generated and being
transmitted, it's possible that other ACKs of the same type will be
generated during that interval. Apart from the ACK time and the serial
number responded to, most of the ACK body, including window and SACK
parameters, are not filled out till the point of transmission - so we can
avoid generating a new ACK if there's one pending that will cover the SACK
data we need to convey.
Therefore, don't propose a new DELAY or IDLE ACK for a call if there's one
already pending.

The difference is when adding TC actions family and proto cannot be got

we also need to send the family in tb[TCA_CT_HELPER_FAMILY] and the
proto in tb[TCA_CT_HELPER_PROTO] to kernel.

The previous attempt to augment carrier_down (see Link)
was not met with much enthusiasm so let's do the simple
thing of exposing what some devices already maintain.
Add a common ethtool statistic for link going down.
Currently users have to maintain per-driver mapping
to extract the right stat from the vendor-specific ethtool -S
stats. carrier_down does not fit the bill because it counts
a lot of software related false positives.
Add the statistic to the extended link state API to steer
vendors towards implementing all of it.
Implement for bnxt and all Linux-controlled PHYs. mlx5 and (possibly)
enic also have a counter for this but I leave the implementation
to their maintainers.

Virtually all conventional network drivers are now converted to use
phylink_generic_validate() - only DSA drivers and fman_memac remain,
so lets remove the necessity for network drivers to explicitly set
this member, and default to phylink_generic_validate() when unset.
This is possible as .validate must currently be set.
Any remaining instances that have not been addressed by this patch can
be fixed up later.

In commit a6d190f8c767 ("can: skb: drop tx skb if in listen only
mode") the priv->ctrlmode element is read even on virtual CAN
interfaces that do not create the struct can_priv at startup. This
out-of-bounds read may lead to CAN frame drops for virtual CAN
interfaces like vcan and vxcan.
This patch mainly reverts the original commit and adds a new helper
for CAN interface drivers that provide the required information in
struct can_priv.

Let families to hook in the new split ops.
They are more flexible and should not be much larger than
full ops. Each split op is 40B while full op is 48B.
Devlink for example has 54 dos and 19 dumps, 2 of the dumps
do not have a do -> 56 full commands = 2688B.
Split ops would have taken 2920B, so 9% more space while
allowing individual per/post doit and per-type policies.
