during bpf program loading remember the last byte of ctx access
and at the time of attaching the program to tracepoint check that
the program doesn't access bytes beyond defined in tracepoint fields
This also disallows access to __dynamic_array fields, but can be
relaxed in the future.

introduce BPF_PROG_TYPE_TRACEPOINT program type and allow it to be attached
to the perf tracepoint handler, which will copy the arguments into
the per-cpu buffer and pass it to the bpf program as its first argument.
The layout of the fields can be discovered by doing
'cat /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/events/sched/sched_switch/format'
prior to the compilation of the program with exception that first 8 bytes
are reserved and not accessible to the program. This area is used to store
the pointer to 'struct pt_regs' which some of the bpf helpers will use:
+---------+
| 8 bytes | hidden 'struct pt_regs *' (inaccessible to bpf program)
+---------+
| N bytes | static tracepoint fields defined in tracepoint/format (bpf readonly)
+---------+
| dynamic | __dynamic_array bytes of tracepoint (inaccessible to bpf yet)
+---------+
Not that all of the fields are already dumped to user space via perf ring buffer
and broken application access it directly without consulting tracepoint/format.
Same rule applies here: static tracepoint fields should only be accessed
in a format defined in tracepoint/format. The order of fields and
field sizes are not an ABI.

avoid memset in perf_fetch_caller_regs, since it's the critical path of all tracepoints.
It's called from perf_sw_event_sched, perf_event_task_sched_in and all of perf_trace_##call
with this_cpu_ptr(&__perf_regs[..]) which are zero initialized by perpcu init logic and
subsequent call to perf_arch_fetch_caller_regs initializes the same fields on all archs,
so we can safely drop memset from all of the above cases and move it into
perf_ftrace_function_call that calls it with stack allocated pt_regs.

Resetting a bearer/interface, with the consequence of resetting all its
pertaining links, is not an atomic action. This becomes particularly
evident in very large clusters, where a lot of traffic may happen on the
remaining links while we are busy shutting them down. In extreme cases,
we may even see links being re-created and re-established before we are
finished with the job.
To solve this, we now introduce a solution where we temporarily detach
the bearer from the interface when the bearer is reset. This inhibits
all packet reception, while sending still is possible. For the latter,
we use the fact that the device's user pointer now is zero to filter out
which packets can be sent during this situation; i.e., outgoing RESET
messages only. This filtering serves to speed up the neighbors'
detection of the loss event, and saves us from unnecessary probing.

When enabling a bearer we create a 'neigbor discoverer' instance by
calling the function tipc_disc_create() before the bearer is actually
registered in the list of enabled bearers. Because of this, the very
first discovery broadcast message, created by the mentioned function,
is lost, since it cannot find any valid bearer to use. Furthermore,
the used send function, tipc_bearer_xmit_skb() does not free the given
buffer when it cannot find a bearer, resulting in the leak of exactly
one send buffer each time a bearer is enabled.
This commit fixes this problem by introducing two changes:
1) Instead of attemting to send the discovery message directly, we let
tipc_disc_create() return the discovery buffer to the calling
function, tipc_enable_bearer(), so that the latter can send it
when the enabling sequence is finished.
2) In tipc_bearer_xmit_skb(), as well as in the two other transmit
functions at the bearer layer, we now free the indicated buffer or
buffer chain when a valid bearer cannot be found.

====================
udp: GRO in UDP sockets
This patch set adds GRO functions (gro_receive and gro_complete) to UDP
sockets and removes udp_offload infrastructure.
Add GRO functions (gro_receive and gro_complete) to UDP sockets. In
udp_gro_receive and udp_gro_complete a socket lookup is done instead of
looking up the port number in udp_offloads. If a socket is found and
there are GRO functions for it then those are called. This feature
allows binding GRO functions to more than just a port number.
Eventually, we will be able to use this technique to allow application
defined GRO for an application protocol by attaching BPF porgrams to UDP
sockets for doing GRO.
In order to implement these functions, we added exported
udp6_lib_lookup_skb and udp4_lib_lookup_skb functions in ipv4/udp.c and
ipv6/udp.c. Also, inet_iif and references to skb_dst() were changed to
check that dst is set in skbuf before derefencing. In the GRO path there
is now a UDP socket lookup performed before dst is set, to the get the
device in that case we simply use skb->dev.
Tested:
Ran various combinations of VXLAN and GUE TCP_STREAM and TCP_RR tests.
Did not see any material regression.

This patch adds GRO functions (gro_receive and gro_complete) to UDP
sockets. udp_gro_receive is changed to perform socket lookup on a
packet. If a socket is found the related GRO functions are called.
This features obsoletes using UDP offload infrastructure for GRO
(udp_offload). This has the advantage of not being limited to provide
offload on a per port basis, GRO is now applied to whatever individual
UDP sockets are bound to. This also allows the possbility of
"application defined GRO"-- that is we can attach something like
a BPF program to a UDP socket to perfrom GRO on an application
layer protocol.

During release_sock we use callbacks to finish the processing
of outstanding skbs on the socket. We actually are still locked,
sk_locked.owned == 1, but we already told lockdep that the mutex
is released. This could lead to false positives in lockdep for
lockdep_sock_is_held (we don't hold the slock spinlock during processing
the outstanding skbs).

The reason is inet_reuseport_add_sock() was still using
sk_nulls_for_each_rcu() instead of sk_for_each_rcu().
SO_REUSEPORT enabled listeners were causing an instant crash.
While chasing this bug, I found that I forgot to clear SOCK_RCU_FREE

The Kconfig for Intel NICs references two different URLs for the "Adapter

to be

but given it's apparently constantly changing, there's no point in having it
in the help text.
Just keep a generic pointer to http://support.intel.com. Hopefully, this one
will have a longer live. It still works, at least.
Furthermore, remove a link to "the latest Intel PRO/100 network driver for

it offers is from 2006, anyway.

Calling dev_close() causes IFF_UP to be cleared which will remove the
interfaces routes and some addresses. That's probably not what the user
intended when running the offline selftest. Besides this does not happen
if the interface is brought down before the test, so the current
behaviour is inconsistent.
Instead call the net_device_ops ndo_stop function directly and avoid
touching IFF_UP at all.

Jiri Pirko says:
====================
mlxsw: Introduce support for Data Center Bridging
Ido says:
This patchset introduces support for Quality of Service (QoS) as part of the
IEEE Data Center Bridiging (DCB) standards.
Patches 1-9 do the required device initialization. Specifically, patches 1-6
initialize the ports' headroom buffers, which are used at ingress to store
incoming packets while they go through the switch's pipeline. Patches 7-9
complete them by initializing the egress scheduling.
The pipeline mentioned above determines the packet's egress port(s) and
traffic class. Ideally, once out of the pipeline the packet moves to the
switch's shared buffer (to be introduced in Jiri's patchset, currently
default values are used) and scheduled for transmission according to its
traffic class. The egress scheduling is configured according to the 802.1Qaz
standard, which is part of the DCB infrastructure supported by Linux. This
is introduced in patches 10-12.
Even after going through the pipeline packets are not always eligible to
enter the shared buffer. This is determined by the amount of available space
and the quotas associated with the packet. However, if flow control is
enabled and the packet is associated with the lossless flow, then it will
stay in the headroom and won't be discarded. This is introduced in patches
13-17.
Please check individual commit messages for more info, as I tried to keep
them pretty detailed.

Implement the appropriate DCB ops and allow a user to configure certain
traffic classes as lossless.
The operation configures PFC for both the egress (respecting PFC frames)
and ingress (sending PFC frames) parts of the port.
At egress, when a PFC frame is received for a PFC enabled priority, then
all the priorities mapped to the same TC are stopped.
At ingress, the priority group (PG) buffers to which the enabled PFC
priorities are mapped are configured to be lossless. PFC frames will be
transmitted when the Xoff threshold is crossed.
The user-supplied delay parameter is used to determine the PG's size
according to the following formula:
PG_SIZE = PG_SIZE_LOSSY + delay * CELL_FACTOR + MTU
In the worst case scenario the delay will be made up of packets that
are all of size CELL_SIZE + 1, which means each packet will require
almost twice its true size when buffered in the switch. We therefore
multiply this value by the "cell factor", which is close to 2.
Another MTU is added in case the transmitting host already started
transmitting a maximum length frame when the PFC packet was received.
As with PAUSE enabled ports, when the port's MTU is changed both the
PGs' size and threshold are adjusted accordingly.

We are going to add support for PFC as part of DCB ops, which requires us
to report the number of PFC frames sent and received per priority.
Add per priority counters in order to report number of PFC frames sent
and received per priority.

When a packet ingress the switch it's placed in its assigned priority
group (PG) buffer in the port's headroom buffer while it goes through
the switch's pipeline. After going through the pipeline - which
determines its egress port(s) and traffic class - it's moved to the
switch's shared buffer awaiting transmission.
However, some packets are not eligible to enter the shared buffer due to
exceeded quotas or insufficient space. Marking their associated PGs as
lossless will cause the packets to accumulate in the PG buffer. Another
reason for packets accumulation are complicated pipelines (e.g.
involving a lot of ACLs).
To prevent packets from being dropped a user can enable PAUSE frames on
the port. This will mark all the active PGs as lossless and set their
size according to the maximum delay, as it's not configured by user.

The delay (612 [Cells]) was calculated according to worst-case scenario
involving maximum MTU and 100m cables.
After marking the PGs as lossless the device is configured to respect
incoming PAUSE frames (Rx PAUSE) and generate PAUSE frames (Tx PAUSE)
according to user's settings.
Whenever the port's headroom configuration changes we take into account
the PAUSE configuration, so that we correctly set the PG's type (lossy /
lossless), size and threshold. This can happen when:
a) The port's MTU changes, as it directly affects the PG's size.
b) A PG is created following user configuration, by binding a priority
to it.
Note that the relevant SUPPORTED flags were already mistakenly set by
the driver before this commit.
