With large BDP TCP flows and lossy networks, it is very important
to keep a low number of skbs in the write queue.
RACK and SACK processing can perform a linear scan of it.
We should avoid putting any payload in skb->head, so that SACK
shifting can be done if needed.
With this patch, we allow to pack ~0.5 MB per skb instead of
the 64KB initially cooked at tcp_sendmsg() time.
This gives a reduction of number of skbs in write queue by eight.
tcp_rack_detect_loss() likes this.
We still allow payload in skb->head for first skb put in the queue,
to not impact RPC workloads.

mlx5e Order-0 pages for Striding RQ
In this series, we refactor our Striding RQ receive-flow to always use
fragmented WQEs (Work Queue Elements) using order-0 pages, omitting the
flow that allocates and splits high-order pages which would fragment
and deplete high-order pages in the system.
The first patch gives a slight degradation, but opens the opportunity
to using a simple page-cache mechanism of a fair size.
The page-cache, implemented in patch 3, not only closes the performance
gap but even gives a gain.
In patch 2 we re-organize the code to better manage the calls for
alloc/de-alloc pages in the RX flow.

Instead of reallocating and mapping pages for RX data-path,
recycle already used pages in a per ring cache.
Performance tests:
The following results were measured on a freshly booted system,
giving optimal baseline performance, as high-order pages are yet to
be fragmented and depleted.
We ran pktgen single-stream benchmarks, with iptables-raw-drop:
Single stride, 64 bytes:
* 4,739,057 - baseline
* 4,749,550 - order0 no cache
* 4,786,899 - order0 with cache
1% gain
Larger packets, no page cross, 1024 bytes:
* 3,982,361 - baseline
* 3,845,682 - order0 no cache
* 4,127,852 - order0 with cache
3.7% gain
Larger packets, every 3rd packet crosses a page, 1500 bytes:
* 3,731,189 - baseline
* 3,579,414 - order0 no cache
* 3,931,708 - order0 with cache

To improve the memory consumption scheme, we omit the flow that
demands and splits high-order pages in Striding RQ, and stay
with a single Striding RQ flow that uses order-0 pages.
Moving to fragmented memory allows the use of larger MPWQEs,
which reduces the number of UMR posts and filler CQEs.
Moving to a single flow allows several optimizations that improve
performance, especially in production servers where we would
anyway fallback to order-0 allocations:
- inline functions that were called via function pointers.
- improve the UMR post process.
This patch alone is expected to give a slight performance reduction.
However, the new memory scheme gives the possibility to use a page-cache
of a fair size, that doesn't inflate the memory footprint, which will
dramatically fix the reduction and even give a performance gain.
Performance tests:
The following results were measured on a freshly booted system,
giving optimal baseline performance, as high-order pages are yet to
be fragmented and depleted.

2015. The following changes were made since then
* fixed the nitpicks from the previous review
* updated to latest API
* turned it into an mdio device
* added callbacks for fdb, bridge offloading, stp, eee, port status
* fixed several minor issues to the port setup and arp learning
* changed the namespacing as this driver to qca8k

This patch contains initial support for the QCA8337 switch. It
will detect a QCA8337 switch, if present and declared in the DT.
Each port will be represented through a standalone net_device interface,
as for other DSA switches. CPU can communicate with any of the ports by
setting an IP@ on ethN interface. Most of the extra callbacks of the DSA
subsystem are already supported, such as bridge offloading, stp, fdb.

When skb replaces another one in ooo queue, I forgot to also
update tp->ooo_last_skb as well, if the replaced skb was the last one
in the queue.
To fix this, we simply can re-use the code that runs after an insertion,
trying to merge skbs at the right of current skb.
This not only fixes the bug, but also remove all small skbs that might
be a subset of the new one.
Example:
We receive segments 2001:3001, 4001:5001
Then we receive 2001:8001 : We should replace 2001:3001 with the big
skb, but also remove 4001:50001 from the queue to save space.

2) refactors code in order to the reusability of existing code.
3) considers handling for race condition between the reset flow and

Changes since v1:
- fix the build error with module built causing undefined symbol for

rxrpc: Support IPv6
Here is a set of patches that add IPv6 support. They need to be applied on
top of the just-posted miscellaneous fix patches. They are:
(1) Make autobinding of an unconnected socket work when sendmsg() is
called to initiate a client call.
(2) Don't specify the protocol when creating the client socket, but rather
take the default instead.
(3) Use rxrpc_extract_addr_from_skb() in a couple of places that were
doing the same thing manually. This allows the IPv6 address
extraction to be done in fewer places.
(4) Add IPv6 support. With this, calls can be made to IPv6 servers from
userspace AF_RXRPC programs; AFS, however, can't use IPv6 yet as the
RPC calls need to be upgradeable.

====================
rxrpc: Miscellaneous fixes
Here's a set of miscellaneous fix patches. There are a couple of points of
note:
(1) There is one non-fix patch that adjusts the call ref tracking
tracepoint to make kernel API-held refs on calls more obvious. This
is a prerequisite for the patch that fixes prealloc refcounting.
(2) The final patch alters how jumbo packets that partially exceed the
receive window are handled. Previously, space was being left in the
Rx buffer for them, but this significantly hurts performance as the Rx
window can't be increased to match the OpenAFS Tx window size.
Instead, the excess subpackets are discarded and an EXCEEDS_WINDOW ACK
is generated for the first. To avoid the problem of someone trying to
run the kernel out of space by feeding the kernel a series of
overlapping maximal jumbo packets, we stop allowing jumbo packets on a
call if we encounter more than three jumbo packets with duplicate or
excessive subpackets.

The ovs kernel data path currently defers the execution of all
recirc actions until stack utilization is at a minimum.
This is too limiting for some packet forwarding scenarios due to
the small size of the deferred action FIFO (10 entries). For
example, broadcast traffic sent out more than 10 ports with
recirculation results in packet drops when the deferred action
FIFO becomes full, as reported here:
http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-March/067672.html
Since the current recursion depth is available (it is already tracked
by the exec_actions_level pcpu variable), we can use it to determine
whether to execute recirculation actions immediately (safe when
recursion depth is low) or defer execution until more stack space is
available.
With this change, the deferred action fifo size becomes a non-issue
for currently failing scenarios because it is no longer used when
there are three or fewer recursions through ovs_execute_actions().

This action is intended to be an upgrade from a usability perspective
from pedit (as well as operational debugability).
Compare this:
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
action pedit munge offset -14 u8 set 0x02 \
munge offset -13 u8 set 0x15 \
munge offset -12 u8 set 0x15 \
munge offset -11 u8 set 0x15 \
munge offset -10 u16 set 0x1515 \
pipe
to:
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
action skbmod dmac 02:15:15:15:15:15
Also try to do a MAC address swap with pedit or worse
try to debug a policy with destination mac, source mac and
etherype. Then make few rules out of those and you'll get my point.
In the future common use cases on pedit can be migrated to this action
(as an example different fields in ip v4/6, transports like tcp/udp/sctp
etc). For this first cut, this allows modifying basic ethernet header.
The most important ethernet use case at the moment is when redirecting or
mirroring packets to a remote machine. The dst mac address needs a re-write
so that it doesnt get dropped or confuse an interconnecting (learning) switch
or dropped by a target machine (which looks at the dst mac). And at times
when flipping back the packet a swap of the MAC addresses is needed.

We have a small skb_at_tc_ingress() helper for testing for ingress, so
make use of it. cls_bpf already uses it and so should act_bpf.

The skb_mac_header_was_set() test in cls_bpf's and act_bpf's fast-path is
actually unnecessary and can be removed altogether. This was added by
commit a166151cbe33 ("bpf: fix bpf helpers to use skb->mac_header relative
offsets"), which was later on improved by 3431205e0397 ("bpf: make programs
see skb->data == L2 for ingress and egress"). We're always guaranteed to
have valid mac header at the time we invoke cls_bpf_classify() or tcf_bpf().
Reason is that since 6d1ccff62780 ("net: reset mac header in dev_start_xmit()")
we do skb_reset_mac_header() in __dev_queue_xmit() before we could call
into sch_handle_egress() or any subsequent enqueue. sch_handle_ingress()
always sees a valid mac header as well (things like skb_reset_mac_len()
would badly fail otherwise). Thus, drop the unnecessary test in classifier
and action case.

Remove rcu_read_lock protection from tunnel_key_dump and use
rtnl_dereference, dump operation is protected by rtnl lock.
Also, remove rcu_read_lock from tunnel_key_release and use
rcu_dereference_protected.
Both operations are running exclusively and a writer couldn't modify
t->params while those functions are executed.
