Extract the logic from b53_adjust_link() responsible for overriding a
given port's link, speed, duplex and pause settings and make two helper
functions to set the port's configuration and the port's link settings.
We will make use of both, as separate functions while adding PHYLINK
support next.

Update the SRAB driver to manage per-port interrupts. Since we cannot
sleep during b53_io_ops, schedule a workqueue whenever we get a port
specific interrupt. We will later make use of this to call back into
PHYLINK when there is e.g: a link state change.

====================
rtnetlink: add IFA_TARGET_NETNSID for RTM_GETADDR
This iteration should mainly addresses the suggestion to use
IFA_TARGET_NETNSID as the property name. Additionally, an an alias for
the already existing IFLA_IF_NETNSID property is added.
Note that two additional cleanup patches (8\9 and 9\9) were added to
address concerns raised that passing more than 6 arguments to a function
will cause additional variables to be pushed onto the stack instead of
being placed into registers. The way I addressed this is by introducing
two new struct inet{6}_fill_args that are used to pass common
information down to inet{6}_fill_if*() functions shortening all those
functions to three pointer arguments.
If this is something more people than Kirill find useful they can be
kept if not they can simply be dropped in later iterations of this
series or when merging.
Here is a short overview:
1. Rename from IFA_IF_NETNSID to IFA_TARGET_NETNSID.
2. Add IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID as an alias for IFA_IFLA_NETNSID and switch
all occurrences over to the new alias.
3. Add inet4_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in
inet_fill_if*() functions.
4. Add inet6_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in
inet_fill_if*() functions.
The only functional change is the export of rtnl_get_net_ns_capable()
which is needed in case ipv6 is built as a module.
Note, I did not change the property name to IFA_TARGET_NSID as there was
no clear agreement what would be preferred. My personal preference is to
keep the IFA_IF_NETNSID name because it aligns naturally with the
IFLA_IF_NETNSID property for RTM_*LINK requests. Jiri seems to prefer
this name too.
However, if there is agreement that another property name makes more
sense I'm happy to send a v2 that changes this.
To test this patchset I performed 1 million getifaddrs() requests
against a network namespace containing 5 interfaces (lo, eth{0-4}). The
first test used a network namespace aware getifaddrs() implementation I
wrote and the second test used the traditional setns() + getifaddrs()
method. The results show that this patchsets allows userspace to cut
retrieval time in half:
1. netns_getifaddrs(): 82 microseconds
2. setns() + getifaddrs(): 162 microseconds
A while back we introduced and enabled IFLA_IF_NETNSID in
RTM_{DEL,GET,NEW}LINK requests (cf. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). This has led
to signficant performance increases since it allows userspace to avoid
taking the hit of a setns(netns_fd, CLONE_NEWNET), then getting the
interfaces from the netns associated with the netns_fd. Especially when a
lot of network namespaces are in use, using setns() becomes increasingly
problematic when performance matters.
Usually, RTML_GETLINK requests are followed by RTM_GETADDR requests (cf.
getifaddrs() style functions and friends). But currently, RTM_GETADDR
requests do not support a similar property like IFLA_IF_NETNSID for
RTM_*LINK requests.
This is problematic since userspace can retrieve interfaces from another
network namespace by sending a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property along but
RTM_GETLINK request but is still forced to use the legacy setns() style of
retrieving interfaces in RTM_GETADDR requests.
The goal of this series is to make it possible to perform RTM_GETADDR
requests on different network namespaces. To this end a new IFA_IF_NETNSID
property for RTM_*ADDR requests is introduced. It can be used to send a
network namespace identifier along in RTM_*ADDR requests. The network
namespace identifier will be used to retrieve the target network namespace
in which the request is supposed to be fulfilled. This aligns the behavior
of RTM_*ADDR requests with the behavior of RTM_*LINK requests.
- The caller must have assigned a valid network namespace identifier for
the target network namespace.
- The caller must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the
target network namespace.

- Backwards Compatibility:
If userspace wants to determine whether ipv6 RTM_GETADDR requests
support the new IFA_TARGET_NETNSID property it should verify that the
reply includes the IFA_TARGET_NETNSID property. If it does not
userspace should assume that IFA_TARGET_NETNSID is not supported for
ipv6 RTM_GETADDR requests on this kernel.
- From what I gather from current userspace tools that make use of
RTM_GETADDR requests some of them pass down struct ifinfomsg when they
should actually pass down struct ifaddrmsg. To not break existing
tools that pass down the wrong struct we will do the same as for
RTM_GETLINK | NLM_F_DUMP requests and not error out when the
nlmsg_parse() fails.
- Security:
Callers must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the
target network namespace.

get_target_net() will be used in follow-up patches in ipv{4,6} codepaths to
retrieve network namespaces based on network namespace identifiers. So
remove the static declaration and export in the rtnetlink header. Also,

Currently, the only way to ignore outgoing packets on a packet socket is
via the BPF filter. With MSG_ZEROCOPY, packets that are looped into
AF_PACKET are copied in dev_queue_xmit_nit(), and this copy happens even
if the filter run from packet_rcv() would reject them. So the presence
of a packet socket on the interface takes away the benefits of
MSG_ZEROCOPY, even if the packet socket is not interested in outgoing
packets. (Even when MSG_ZEROCOPY is not used, the skb is unnecessarily
cloned, but the cost for that is much lower.)
Add a socket option to allow AF_PACKET sockets to ignore outgoing
packets to solve this. Note that the *BSDs already have something
similar: BIOCSSEESENT/BIOCSDIRECTION and BIOCSDIRFILT.
The first intended user is lldpd.

In multi-host (MH) NIC scheme, a single HW port serves multiple hosts
or sockets on the same host.
The HW uses a mechanism in the PCIe buffer which monitors
the amount of consumed PCIe buffers per host.
On a certain configuration, under congestion,
the HW emulates a switch doing ECN marking on packets using ECN
indication on the completion descriptor (CQE).
The driver needs to set the ECN bits on the packet SKB,
such that the network stack can react on that, this commit does that.

Changed "priv.clock.lock" lock from 'rw_lock' to 'seq_lock'
in order to improve packet rate performance.
Tested on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v2 @ 2.20GHz.
Sent 64b packets between two peers connected by ConnectX-5,
and measured packet rate for the receiver in three modes:
no time-stamping (base rate)
time-stamping using rw_lock (old lock) for critical region
time-stamping using seq_lock (new lock) for critical region
Only the receiver time stamped its packets.
The measured packet rate improvements are:
Single flow (multiple TX rings to single RX ring):
without timestamping: 4.26 (M packets)/sec
with rw-lock (old lock): 4.1 (M packets)/sec
with seq-lock (new lock): 4.16 (M packets)/sec
1.46% improvement
Multiple flows (multiple TX rings to six RX rings):
without timestamping: 22 (M packets)/sec
with rw-lock (old lock): 11.7 (M packets)/sec
with seq-lock (new lock): 21.3 (M packets)/sec
82.05% improvement
The packet rate improvement is due to the lack of atomic operations
for the 'readers' by the seq-lock.
Since there are much more 'readers' than 'writers' contention
on this lock, almost all atomic operations are saved.
this results in a dramatic decrease in overall
cache misses.

Previous patch in series changed flow counter storage structure from
rb_tree to linked list in order to improve flow counter traversal
performance. The drawback of such solution is that flow counter lookup by
id becomes linear in complexity.
Store pointers to flow counters in idr in order to improve lookup
performance to logarithmic again. Idr is non-intrusive data structure and
doesn't require extending flow counter struct with new elements. This means
that idr can be used for lookup, while linked list from previous patch is
used for traversal, and struct mlx5_fc size is <= 2 cache lines.

In order to improve performance of flow counter stats query loop that
traverses all configured flow counters, replace rb_tree with double-linked
list. This change improves performance of traversing flow counters by
removing the tree traversal. (profiling data showed that call to rb_next
was most top CPU consumer)
However, lookup of flow flow counter in list becomes linear, instead of
logarithmic. This problem is fixed by next patch in series, which adds idr
for fast lookup. Idr is to be used because it is not an intrusive data
structure and doesn't require adding any new members to struct mlx5_fc,
which allows its control data part to stay <= 1 cache line in size.

Both old and new cannot be NULL at the same time, hence checking

Also, notice that new is being dereferenced before it is checked:
idx = new->conf.keyidx;
The above triggers a static code analysis warning.
Address this by removing the NULL check on new and adding a code
comment based on the following piece of code:

We have a TXQ abstraction for non-data packets that need
powersave buffering. Since the AP cannot sleep, in case
of station we can use this TXQ for all management frames,
regardless if they are bufferable. Add HW flag to allow
that.

For certain sounding frames, it may be useful to report them
to userspace even though they don't have a PSDU in order to
determine the PHY parameters (e.g. VHT rate/stream config.)
Add support for this to mac80211.

Rekeying PTK keys without "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed
Frames" did use a procedure not suitable to replace in-use keys and
could caused the following issues:
1) Freeze caused by incoming frames:
If the local STA installed the key prior to the remote STA we still
had the old key active in the hardware when mac80211 switched over
to the new key.
Therefore there was a window where the card could hand over frames
decoded with the old key to mac80211 and bump the new PN (IV) value
to an incorrect high number. When it happened the local replay
detection silently started to drop all frames sent with the new key.
2) Freeze caused by outgoing frames:
If mac80211 was providing the PN (IV) and handed over a clear text
frame for encryption to the hardware prior to a key change the
driver/card could have processed the queued frame after switching
to the new key. This bumped the PN value on the remote STA to an
incorrect high number, tricking the remote STA to discard all frames
we sent later.
3) Freeze caused by RX aggregation reorder buffer:
An aggregation session started with the old key and ending after the
switch to the new key also bumped the PN to an incorrect high number,
freezing the connection quite similar to 1).
4) Freeze caused by repeating lost frames in an aggregation session:
A driver could repeat a lost frame and encrypt it with the new key
while in a TX aggregation session without updating the PN for the
new key. This also could freeze connections similar to 2).
5) Clear text leak:
Removing encryption offload from the card cleared the encryption
offload flag only after the card had deleted the key and we did not
stop TX during the rekey. The driver/card could therefore get
unencrypted frames from mac80211 while no longer be instructed to
encrypt them.
To prevent those issues the key install logic has been changed:
- Mac80211 divers known to be able to rekey PTK0 keys have to set
@NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0,
- mac80211 stops queuing frames depending on the key during the replace
- the key is first replaced in the hardware and after that in mac80211
- and mac80211 stops/blocks new aggregation sessions during the rekey.
For drivers not setting
@NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 the user space must avoid PTK
rekeys if "Extended Key ID for Individually Addressed Frames" is not
being used. Rekeys for mac80211 drivers without this flag will generate a
warning and use an extra call to ieee80211_flush_queues() to both
highlight and try to prevent the issues with not updated drivers.
The core of the fix changes the key install procedure from:
- atomic switch over to the new key in mac80211
- remove the old key in the hardware (stops encryption offloading, fall
back to software encryption with a potential clear text packet leak
in between)
- delete the inactive old key in mac80211
- enable hardware encryption offloading for the new key
to:
- if it's a PTK mark the old key as tainted to drop TX frames with the
outgoing key
- replace the key in hardware with the new one
- atomic switch over to the new (not marked as tainted) key in
mac80211 (which also resumes TX)
- delete the inactive old key in mac80211
With the new sequence the hardware will be unable to decrypt frames
encrypted with the old key prior to switching to the new key in mac80211
and thus prevent PNs from packets decrypted with the old key to be
accounted against the new key.
For that to work the drivers have to provide a clear boundary.
Mac80211 drivers setting @NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 confirm
to provide it and mac80211 will then be able to correctly rekey in-use
PTK keys with those drivers.
The mac80211 requirements for drivers to set the flag have been added to
the "Hardware crypto acceleration" documentation section. It drills down
to:
The drivers must not hand over frames decrypted with the old key to
mac80211 once the call to set_key() with %DISABLE_KEY has been
completed. It's allowed to either drop or continue to use the old key
for any outgoing frames which are already in the queues, but it must not
send out any of them unencrypted or encrypted with the new key.
Even with the new boundary in place aggregation sessions with the
reorder buffer are problematic:
RX aggregation session started prior and completed after the rekey could
still dump frames received with the old key at mac80211 after it
switched over to the new key. This is side stepped by stopping all (RX
and TX) aggregation sessions when replacing a PTK key and hardware key
offloading.
Stopping TX aggregation sessions avoids the need to get
the PNs (IVs) updated in frames prepared for the old key and
(re)transmitted after the switch to the new key. As a bonus it improves
the compatibility when the remote STA is not handling rekeys as it
should.
When using software crypto aggregation sessions are not stopped.
Mac80211 won't be able to decode the dangerous frames and discard them
without special handling.

Drivers able to correctly replace a in-use key should set
@NL80211_EXT_FEATURE_CAN_REPLACE_PTK0 to allow the user space (e.g.
hostapd or wpa_supplicant) to rekey PTK keys.
The user space must detect a PTK rekey attempt and only go ahead with it
when the driver has set this flag. If the driver is not supporting the
feature the user space either must not replace the PTK key or perform a
full re-association instead.
Ignoring this flag and continuing to rekey the connection can still work
but has to be considered insecure and broken. Depending on the driver it
can leak clear text packets or freeze the connection and is only
supported to allow the user space to be updated.
