The strscpy() was a recent fix (net: qed: use correct strncpy() size) to
prevent passing the length of the source buffer to strncpy() and guarantee
null termination.
It misses the goal of overwriting only the first 3 characters in
"???_BIG_RAM" and "???_RAM" while keeping the rest of the string.
Use strncpy() with the length of 3, without null termination.

====================
ipconfig: NTP server support, bug fixes, documentation improvements
This series (against net-next) makes various improvements to ipconfig:
- Patch #1 correctly documents the behaviour of parameter 4 in the
"ip=" and "nfsaddrs=" command line parameter.
- Patch #2 tidies up the printk()s for reporting configured name
servers.
- Patch #3 fixes a bug in autoconfiguration via BOOTP whereby the IP
addresses of IEN-116 name servers are requested from the BOOTP
server, rather than those of DNS name servers.
- Patch #4 requests the number of DNS servers specified by
CONF_NAMESERVERS_MAX when autoconfiguring via BOOTP, rather than
hardcoding it to 2.
- Patch #5 fully documents the contents and format of /proc/net/pnp in
Documentation/filesystems/nfs/nfsroot.txt.
- Patch #6 fixes a bug whereby bogus information is written to
/proc/net/pnp when ipconfig is not used.
- Patch #7 creates a new procfs directory for ipconfig-related
configuration reports at /proc/net/ipconfig.
- Patch #8 allows for NTP servers to be configured (manually on the
kernel command line or automatically via DHCP), enabling systems with
an NFS root filesystem to synchronise their clock before mounting
their root filesystem. NTP server IP addresses are written to
/proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers.
Changes from v1:
- David requested that a new directory /proc/net/ipconfig be created to
contain ipconfig-related configuration reports, which is implemented
in the new patch #7. NTP server IPs are now written to this directory
instead of /proc/net/ntp in the new patch #8.
- Cong and David both requested that the modification to CREDITS be
dropped. This patch has been removed from the series.

Distributed filesystems are most effective when the server and client
clocks are synchronised. Embedded devices often use NFS for their
root filesystem but typically do not contain an RTC, so the clocks of
the NFS server and the embedded device will be out-of-sync when the root
filesystem is mounted (and may not be synchronised until late in the
boot process).
Extend ipconfig with the ability to export IP addresses of NTP servers
it discovers to /proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers. They can be supplied as
follows:
- If ipconfig is configured manually via the "ip=" or "nfsaddrs="
kernel command line parameters, one NTP server can be specified in
the new "<ntp0-ip>" parameter.
- If ipconfig is autoconfigured via DHCP, request DHCP option 42 in
the DHCPDISCOVER message, and record the IP addresses of up to three
NTP servers sent by the responding DHCP server in the subsequent
DHCPOFFER message.
ipconfig will only write the NTP server IP addresses it discovers to
/proc/net/ipconfig/ntp_servers, one per line (in the order received from
the DHCP server, if DHCP autoconfiguration is used); making use of these
NTP servers is the responsibility of a user space process (e.g. an
initrd/initram script that invokes an NTP client before mounting an NFS
root filesystem).

ic_nameservers, which stores the list of name servers discovered by
ipconfig, is initialised (i.e. has all of its elements set to NONE, or
0xffffffff) by ic_nameservers_predef() in the following scenarios:
- before the "ip=" and "nfsaddrs=" kernel command line parameters are
parsed (in ip_auto_config_setup());
- before autoconfiguring via DHCP or BOOTP (in ic_bootp_init()), in
order to clear any values that may have been set after parsing "ip="
or "nfsaddrs=" and are no longer needed.
This means that ic_nameservers_predef() is not called when neither "ip="
nor "nfsaddrs=" is specified on the kernel command line. In this
scenario, every element in ic_nameservers remains set to 0x00000000,
which is indistinguishable from ANY and causes pnp_seq_show() to write
the following (bogus) information to /proc/net/pnp:
#MANUAL
nameserver 0.0.0.0
nameserver 0.0.0.0
nameserver 0.0.0.0
This is potentially problematic for systems that blindly link
/etc/resolv.conf to /proc/net/pnp.
Ensure that ic_nameservers is also initialised when neither "ip=" nor
"nfsaddrs=" are specified by calling ic_nameservers_predef() in
ip_auto_config(), but only when ip_auto_config_setup() was not called
earlier. This causes the following to be written to /proc/net/pnp, and
is consistent with what gets written when ipconfig is configured
manually but no name servers are specified on the kernel command line:

When ipconfig is autoconfigured via BOOTP, the request packet
initialised by ic_bootp_init_ext() always allocates 8 bytes for the name
server option, limiting the BOOTP server to responding with at most 2
name servers even though ipconfig in fact supports an arbitrary number
of name servers (as defined by CONF_NAMESERVERS_MAX, which is currently
3).
Only request name servers in the request packet if CONF_NAMESERVERS_MAX
is positive (to comply with [1, §3.8]), and allocate enough space in the
packet for CONF_NAMESERVERS_MAX name servers to indicate the maximum
number we can accept in response.

When ipconfig is autoconfigured via BOOTP, the request packet
initialised by ic_bootp_init_ext() allocates 8 bytes for tag 5 ("Name
Server" [1, §3.7]), but tag 5 in the response isn't processed by
ic_do_bootp_ext(). Instead, allocate the 8 bytes to tag 6 ("Domain Name
Server" [1, §3.8]), which is processed by ic_do_bootp_ext(), and appears
to have been the intended tag to request.
This won't cause any breakage for existing users, as tag 5 responses
provided by BOOTP servers weren't being processed anyway.

Commit 5e953778a2aab04929a5e7b69f53dc26e39b079e ("ipconfig: add
nameserver IPs to kernel-parameter ip=") adds the IP addresses of
discovered name servers to the summary printed by ipconfig when
configuration is complete. It appears the intention in ip_auto_config()
was to print the name servers on a new line (especially given the
spacing and lack of comma before "nameserver0="), but they're actually
printed on the same line as the NFS root filesystem configuration
summary:
[ 0.686186] IP-Config: Complete:
[ 0.686226] device=eth0, hwaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, ipaddr=10.0.0.2, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=10.0.0.1
[ 0.686328] host=test, domain=example.com, nis-domain=(none)
[ 0.686386] bootserver=10.0.0.1, rootserver=10.0.0.1, rootpath= nameserver0=10.0.0.1
This makes it harder to read and parse ipconfig's output. Instead, print
the name servers on a separate line:
[ 0.791250] IP-Config: Complete:
[ 0.791289] device=eth0, hwaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, ipaddr=10.0.0.2, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=10.0.0.1

ic_do_bootp_ext() is responsible for parsing the "ip=" and "nfsaddrs="
kernel parameters. If a "." character is found in parameter 4 (the
client's hostname), everything before the first "." is used as the
hostname, and everything after it is used as the NIS domain name (but
not necessarily the DNS domain name).

====================
A few rhashtables cleanups
2 patches fixes documentation

====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When a walk of an rhashtable is interrupted with rhastable_walk_stop()
and then rhashtable_walk_start(), the location to restart from is based
on a 'skip' count in the current hash chain, and this can be incorrect
if insertions or deletions have happened. This does not happen when
the walk is not stopped and started as iter->p is a placeholder which
is safe to use while holding the RCU read lock.
In rhashtable_walk_start() we can revalidate that 'p' is still in the
same hash chain. If it isn't then the current method is still used.
With this patch, if a rhashtable walker ensures that the current
object remains in the table over a stop/start period (possibly by
elevating the reference count if that is sufficient), it can be sure
that a walk will not miss objects that were in the hashtable for the
whole time of the walk.
rhashtable_walk_start() may not find the object even though it is
still in the hashtable if a rehash has moved it to a new table. In
this case it will (eventually) get -EAGAIN and will need to proceed
through the whole table again to be sure to see everything at least
once.

Introduce adaptive TX interrupt moderation to net DIM
Net DIM is a library designed for dynamic interrupt moderation. It was
implemented and optimized with receive side interrupts in mind, since these
are usually the CPU expensive ones. This patch-set introduces adaptive transmit
interrupt moderation to net DIM, complete with a usage in the mlx5e driver.
Using adaptive TX behavior would reduce interrupt rate for multiple scenarios.
Furthermore, it is essential for increasing bandwidth on cases where payload
aggregation is required.
v3: Remove "inline" from functions in .c files (requested by DaveM). Revert
adding "enabled" field from struct net_dim and applied mlx5e structural
suggestions (suggested by SaeedM).
v2: Rebase over proper tree.
v1: Fix compilation issues due to missed function renaming.

Add support for adaptive TX moderation. This greatly reduces TX interrupt
rate and increases bandwidth, mostly for TCP bandwidth over ARM
architecture (below). There is a slight single stream TCP with very large
message sizes degradation (x86). In this case if there's any moderation on
transmitted packets the bandwidth would reduce due to hitting TCP output limit.
Since this is a synthetic case, this is still worth doing.
Performance improvement (ConnectX-4Lx 40GbE, ARM)
TCP 64B bandwidth with 1-50 streams increased 6-35%.
TCP 64B bandwidth with 100-500 streams increased 20-70%.
Performance improvement (ConnectX-5 100GbE, x86)
Bandwidth: increased up to 40% (1024B with 10s of streams).
Interrupt rate: reduced up to 50% (1024B with 1000s of streams).
Performance degradation (ConnectX-5 100GbE, x86)
Bandwidth: up to 10% decrease single stream TCP (1MB message size from
51Gb/s to 47Gb/s).

Interrupt moderation for TX traffic requires different profiles than RX
interrupt moderation. The main goal here is to reduce interrupt rate and
allow better payload aggregation by keeping SKBs in the TX queue a bit
longer. Ping-pong behavior would get a profile with a short timer, so
latency wouldn't increase for these scenarios. There might be a slight
degradation in bandwidth for single stream with large message sizes, since
net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes is limiting the allowed TX traffic, but
with many streams performance is always improved.

Similar to commit a2ac99905f1e ("vhost-net: set packet weight of
tx polling to 2 * vq size"), we need a packet-based limit for
handler_rx, too - elsewhere, under rx flood with small packets,
tx can be delayed for a very long time, even without busypolling.
The pkt limit applied to handle_rx must be the same applied by
handle_tx, or we will get unfair scheduling between rx and tx.
Tying such limit to the queue length makes it less effective for
large queue length values and can introduce large process
scheduler latencies, so a constant valued is used - likewise
the existing bytes limit.
The selected limit has been validated with PVP[1] performance
test with different queue sizes:
queue size 256 512 1024
baseline 366 354 362
weight 128 715 723 670
weight 256 740 745 733
weight 512 600 460 583
weight 1024 423 427 418
A packet weight of 256 gives peek performances in under all the
tested scenarios.
No measurable regression in unidirectional performance tests has
been detected.

the existed tracepoint tcp_probe we could get the time when this packet
arrives.
Then this packet will be copied to user, and tcp_rcv_space_adjust will
be called and with this new introduced tracepoint we could get the time
when this packet is copied to user.
With these two tracepoints, we could figure out whether the user program
processes this packet immediately or there's latency.
Hence in the printk message, sk_cookie is printed as a key to relate
tcp_rcv_space_adjust with tcp_probe.
Maybe we could export sockfd in this new tracepoint as well, then we
could relate this new tracepoint with epoll/read/recv* tracepoints, and
finally that could show us the whole lifespan of this packet. But we
could also implement that with pid as these functions are executed in
process context.

The conversion of rndis friendly name to utf8 uses a standard
kernel routine which is optional in config. Therefore build
would fail for some configurations. Resolve by selecting needed
library.

====================
net/ipv6: Another followup to the fib6_info change
Last one - for this week.
Patches 1, 2 and 7 are more cleanup patches - removing dead code,
moving code from a header to near its single caller, and updating
function name.
Patches 3-5 do some refactoring leading up to patch 6 which fixes
a NULL dereference. I have only managed to trigger a panic once, so
I can not definitively confirm it addresses the problem but it seems
pretty clear that it is a race on removing a 'from' reference on
an rt6_info and another path using that 'from' value to do
cookie checking.

Dan reported an imbalance in fib6_check on use of f6i and checking
whether it is null. Since fib6_check is only called if f6i is non-null,
remove the unnecessary check.

When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info
is set to the fib entry. The 'from' reference is used most notably for
cookie checking - making sure stale dst entries are updated if the
fib entry is changed.
When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing
the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to
happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely
manner.
There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
this race using rcu on from.

A later patch protects 'from' in rt6_info and this simplifies the
locking needed by it.

With the move, the fib6_info_hold for the uncached_rt is no longer
needed since the rcu_lock is still held.
