drop_monitor is using an unique list on which all netdevices in
the host have an element, regardless of their netns.
This scales poorly, not only at device unregister time (what I
caught during my netns dismantle stress tests), but also at packet
processing time whenever trace_napi_poll_hit() is called.
If the intent was to avoid adding one pointer in 'struct net_device'
then surely we prefer O(1) behavior.

Dave suggested a while ago (eleven years by now) "Let's make netif_rx()
work in all contexts and get rid of netif_rx_ni()". Eric agreed and
pointed out that modern devices should use netif_receive_skb() to avoid
the overhead.
In the meantime someone added another variant, netif_rx_any_context(),
which behaves as suggested.
netif_rx() must be invoked with disabled bottom halves to ensure that
pending softirqs, which were raised within the function, are handled.
netif_rx_ni() can be invoked only from process context (bottom halves
must be enabled) because the function handles pending softirqs without
checking if bottom halves were disabled or not.
netif_rx_any_context() invokes on the former functions by checking
in_interrupts().
netif_rx() could be taught to handle both cases (disabled and enabled
bottom halves) by simply disabling bottom halves while invoking
netif_rx_internal(). The local_bh_enable() invocation will then invoke
pending softirqs only if the BH-disable counter drops to zero.
Eric is concerned about the overhead of BH-disable+enable especially in
regard to the loopback driver. As critical as this driver is, it will
receive a shortcut to avoid the additional overhead which is not needed.
Add a local_bh_disable() section in netif_rx() to ensure softirqs are
handled if needed.
Provide __netif_rx() which does not disable BH and has a lockdep assert
to ensure that interrupts are disabled. Use this shortcut in the
loopback driver and in drivers/net/*.c.
Make netif_rx_ni() and netif_rx_any_context() invoke netif_rx() so they
can be removed once they are no more users left.

We are still chasing some syzbot reports where we think a rogue dev_put()
is called with no corresponding prior dev_hold().
Unfortunately it eats a reference on dev->dev_refcnt taken by innocent
dev_hold_track(), meaning that the refcount saturation splat comes
too late to be useful.
Make sure that 'not tracked' dev_put() and dev_hold() better use
CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER=y debug infrastructure:
Prior patch in the series allowed ref_tracker_alloc() and ref_tracker_free()
to be called with a NULL @trackerp parameter, and to use a separate refcount
only to detect too many put() even in the following case:
dev_hold_track(dev, tracker_1, GFP_ATOMIC);
dev_hold(dev);
dev_put(dev);
dev_put(dev); // Should complain loudly here.
dev_put_track(dev, tracker_1); // instead of here
Add clarification about netdev_tracker_alloc() role.
v2: I replaced the dev_put() in linkwatch_do_dev()
with __dev_put() because callers called netdev_tracker_free().

In one net namespace, after creating a packet socket without binding
it to a device, users in other net namespaces can observe the new
`packet_type` added by this packet socket by reading `/proc/net/ptype`
file. This is minor information leakage as packet socket is
namespace aware.
Add a net pointer in `packet_type` to keep the net namespace of
of corresponding packet socket. In `ptype_seq_show`, this net pointer
must be checked when it is not NULL.

Eric Dumazet suggested to allow users to modify max GRO packet size.
We have seen GRO being disabled by users of appliances (such as
wifi access points) because of claimed bufferbloat issues,
or some work arounds in sch_cake, to split GRO/GSO packets.
Instead of disabling GRO completely, one can chose to limit
the maximum packet size of GRO packets, depending on their
latency constraints.
This patch adds a per device gro_max_size attribute
that can be changed with ip link command.
ip link set dev eth0 gro_max_size 16000

We need to call tc_cleanup_flow_action to clean up tc action entry since
in tc_setup_action, some actions may hold dev refcnt, especially the mirror
action.

We have 100+ syzbot reports about netns being dismantled too soon,
still unresolved as of today.
We think a missing get_net() or an extra put_net() is the root cause.
In order to find the bug(s), and be able to spot future ones,
this patch adds CONFIG_NET_NS_REFCNT_TRACKER and new helpers
to precisely pair all put_net() with corresponding get_net().
To use these helpers, each data structure owning a refcount
should also use a "netns_tracker" to pair the get and put.

net device are refcounted. Over the years we had numerous bugs
caused by imbalanced dev_hold() and dev_put() calls.
The general idea is to be able to precisely pair each decrement with
a corresponding prior increment. Both share a cookie, basically
a pointer to private data storing stack traces.
This patch adds dev_hold_track() and dev_put_track().
To use these helpers, each data structure owning a refcount
should also use a "netdevice_tracker" to pair the hold and put.
netdevice_tracker dev_tracker;
...
dev_hold_track(dev, &dev_tracker, GFP_ATOMIC);
...
dev_put_track(dev, &dev_tracker);
Whenever a leak happens, we will get precise stack traces
of the point dev_hold_track() happened, at device dismantle phase.
We will also get a stack trace if too many dev_put_track() for the same
netdevice_tracker are attempted.
This is guarded by CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER option.

.ndo_change_proto_down was added seemingly to enable out-of-tree
implementations. Over 2.5yrs later we still have no real users
upstream. Hardwire the generic implementation for now, we can
revert once real users materialize. (rocker is a test vehicle,
not a user.)
We need to drop the optimization on the sysfs side, because
unlike ndos priv_flags will be changed at runtime, so we'd
need READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE everywhere..

not yet visible, but is read locklessly.
