Most protocol-specific pointers in struct net_device are under
a respective ifdef. Wireless is the notable exception. Since
there's a sizable number of custom-built kernels for datacenter
workloads which don't build wireless it seems reasonable to
ifdefy those pointers as well.
While at it move IPv4 and IPv6 pointers up, those are special
for obvious reasons.

A cpu can observe sd->defer_count reaching 128,
and call smp_call_function_single_async()
Problem is that the remote CPU can clear sd->defer_count
before the IPI is run/acknowledged.
Other cpus can queue more packets and also decide
to call smp_call_function_single_async() while the pending
IPI was not yet delivered.
This is a common issue with smp_call_function_single_async().
Callers must ensure correct synchronization and serialization.
I triggered this issue while experimenting smaller threshold.
Performing the call to smp_call_function_single_async()
under sd->defer_lock protection did not solve the problem.
Commit 5a18ceca63 ("smp: Allow smp_call_function_single_async()

Allow the gro_max_size to exceed a value larger than 65536.
There weren't really any external limitations that prevented this other
than the fact that IPv4 only supports a 16 bit length field. Since we have
the option of adding a hop-by-hop header for IPv6 we can allow IPv6 to
exceed this value and for IPv4 and non-TCP flows we can cap things at 65536
via a constant rather than relying on gro_max_size.

The code for gso_max_size was added originally to allow for debugging and
workaround of buggy devices that couldn't support TSO with blocks 64K in
size. The original reason for limiting it to 64K was because that was the
existing limits of IPv4 and non-jumbogram IPv6 length fields.
With the addition of Big TCP we can remove this limit and allow the value
to potentially go up to UINT_MAX and instead be limited by the tso_max_size
value.
So in order to support this we need to go through and clean up the
remaining users of the gso_max_size value so that the values will cap at
64K for non-TCPv6 flows. In addition we can clean up the GSO_MAX_SIZE value
so that 64K becomes GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE and UINT_MAX will now be the upper
limit for GSO_MAX_SIZE.
v6: (edumazet) fixed a compile error if CONFIG_IPV6=n,
in a new sk_trim_gso_size() helper.
netif_set_tso_max_size() caps the requested TSO size

If a physical clock supports a free running cycle counter, then
timestamps shall be based on this time too. For TX it is known in
advance before the transmission if a timestamp based on the free running
cycle counter is needed. For RX it is impossible to know which timestamp
is needed before the packet is received and assigned to a socket.
Support late timestamp determination by a network device. Therefore, an
address/cookie is stored within the new netdev_data field of struct
skb_shared_hwtstamps. This address/cookie is provided to a new network
device function called ndo_get_tstamp(), which returns a timestamp based
on the normal/adjustable time or based on the free running cycle
counter. If function is not supported, then timestamp handling is not
changed.
This mechanism is intended for RX, but TX use is also possible.

Up until commit 46e6b992c2 ("rtnetlink: allow GSO maximums to
be set on device creation") the gso_max_segs and gso_max_size
of a device were not controlled from user space.
The quoted commit added the ability to control them because of
the following setup:
netns A | netns B
veth<->veth eth0
If eth0 has TSO limitations and user wants to efficiently forward
traffic between eth0 and the veths they should copy the TSO
limitations of eth0 onto the veths. This would happen automatically
for macvlans or ipvlan but veth users are not so lucky (given the
loose coupling).
Unfortunately the commit in question allowed users to also override
the limits on real HW devices.
It may be useful to control the max GSO size and someone may be using
that ability (not that I know of any user), so create a separate set
of knobs to reliably record the TSO limitations. Validate the user
requests.

Most drivers should not have to worry about selecting the right
weight for their NAPI instances and pass NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT.
It'd be best if we didn't require the argument at all and selected
the default internally.
This change prepares the ground for such reshuffling, allowing
for a smooth transition. The following API should remain after
the next release cycle:
netif_napi_add()
netif_napi_add_weight()
netif_napi_add_tx()
netif_napi_add_tx_weight()
Where the _weight() variants take an explicit weight argument.
I opted for a _weight() suffix rather than a __ prefix, because
we use __ in places to mean that caller needs to also issue a

The macro dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() disables preemption and invokes
netdev_core_stats_alloc() to return a per-CPU pointer.
netdev_core_stats_alloc() will allocate memory on its first invocation
which breaks on PREEMPT_RT because it requires non-atomic context for
memory allocation.
This can be avoided by enabling preemption in netdev_core_stats_alloc()
assuming the caller always disables preemption.
It might be better to replace local_inc() with this_cpu_inc() now that
dev_core_stats_##FIELD##_inc() gained a preempt-disable section and does
not rely on already disabled preemption. This results in less

Logic added in commit f35f821935 ("tcp: defer skb freeing after socket
lock is released") helped bulk TCP flows to move the cost of skbs
frees outside of critical section where socket lock was held.
But for RPC traffic, or hosts with RFS enabled, the solution is far from
being ideal.
For RPC traffic, recvmsg() has to return to user space right after
skb payload has been consumed, meaning that BH handler has no chance
to pick the skb before recvmsg() thread. This issue is more visible
with BIG TCP, as more RPC fit one skb.
For RFS, even if BH handler picks the skbs, they are still picked
from the cpu on which user thread is running.
Ideally, it is better to free the skbs (and associated page frags)
on the cpu that originally allocated them.
This patch removes the per socket anchor (sk->defer_list) and
instead uses a per-cpu list, which will hold more skbs per round.
This new per-cpu list is drained at the end of net_action_rx(),
after incoming packets have been processed, to lower latencies.
In normal conditions, skbs are added to the per-cpu list with
no further action. In the (unlikely) cases where the cpu does not
run net_action_rx() handler fast enough, we use an IPI to raise
NET_RX_SOFTIRQ on the remote cpu.
Also, we do not bother draining the per-cpu list from dev_cpu_dead()
This is because skbs in this list have no requirement on how fast
they should be freed.
Note that we can add in the future a small per-cpu cache
if we see any contention on sd->defer_lock.
Tested on a pair of hosts with 100Gbit NIC, RFS enabled,
and /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_rmem[2] tuned to 16MB to work around
page recycling strategy used by NIC driver (its page pool capacity
being too small compared to number of skbs/pages held in sockets
receive queues)
Note that this tuning was only done to demonstrate worse
conditions for skb freeing for this particular test.
These conditions can happen in more general production workload.

This patch fixes issue:
* If we install tc filters with act_skbedit in clsact hook.
It doesn't work, because netdev_core_pick_tx() overwrites
queue_mapping.
$ tc filter ... action skbedit queue_mapping 1
And this patch is useful:
* We can use FQ + EDT to implement efficient policies. Tx queues
are picked by xps, ndo_select_queue of netdev driver, or skb hash
in netdev_core_pick_tx(). In fact, the netdev driver, and skb
hash are _not_ under control. xps uses the CPUs map to select Tx
queues, but we can't figure out which task_struct of pod/containter
running on this cpu in most case. We can use clsact filters to classify
one pod/container traffic to one Tx queue. Why ?
In containter networking environment, there are two kinds of pod/
containter/net-namespace. One kind (e.g. P1, P2), the high throughput
is key in these applications. But avoid running out of network resource,
the outbound traffic of these pods is limited, using or sharing one
dedicated Tx queues assigned HTB/TBF/FQ Qdisc. Other kind of pods
(e.g. Pn), the low latency of data access is key. And the traffic is not
limited. Pods use or share other dedicated Tx queues assigned FIFO Qdisc.
This choice provides two benefits. First, contention on the HTB/FQ Qdisc
lock is significantly reduced since fewer CPUs contend for the same queue.
More importantly, Qdisc contention can be eliminated completely if each
CPU has its own FIFO Qdisc for the second kind of pods.
There must be a mechanism in place to support classifying traffic based on
pods/container to different Tx queues. Note that clsact is outside of Qdisc
while Qdisc can run a classifier to select a sub-queue under the lock.
In general recording the decision in the skb seems a little heavy handed.
This patch introduces a per-CPU variable, suggested by Eric.
The xmit.skip_txqueue flag is firstly cleared in __dev_queue_xmit().
- Tx Qdisc may install that skbedit actions, then xmit.skip_txqueue flag
is set in qdisc->enqueue() though tx queue has been selected in
netdev_tx_queue_mapping() or netdev_core_pick_tx(). That flag is cleared
firstly in __dev_queue_xmit(), is useful:
- Avoid picking Tx queue with netdev_tx_queue_mapping() in next netdev
in such case: eth0 macvlan - eth0.3 vlan - eth0 ixgbe-phy:
For example, eth0, macvlan in pod, which root Qdisc install skbedit
queue_mapping, send packets to eth0.3, vlan in host. In __dev_queue_xmit() of
eth0.3, clear the flag, does not select tx queue according to skb->queue_mapping
because there is no filters in clsact or tx Qdisc of this netdev.
Same action taked in eth0, ixgbe in Host.
- Avoid picking Tx queue for next packet. If we set xmit.skip_txqueue
in tx Qdisc (qdisc->enqueue()), the proper way to clear it is clearing it
in __dev_queue_xmit when processing next packets.
For performance reasons, use the static key. If user does not config the NET_EGRESS,
the patch will not be compiled.

There's a number of functions and static variables used
under net/core/ but not from the outside. We currently
dump most of them into netdevice.h. That bad for many
reasons:
- netdevice.h is very cluttered, hard to figure out
what the APIs are;
- netdevice.h is very long;
- we have to touch netdevice.h more which causes expensive
incremental builds.
Create a header under net/core/ and move some declarations.
The new header is also a bit of a catch-all but that's
fine, if we create more specific headers people will
likely over-think where their declaration fit best.
And end up putting them in netdevice.h, again.
More work should be done on splitting netdevice.h into more
targeted headers, but that'd be more time consuming so small
steps.

In [1], Will raised a potential issue that the cfg80211 code,
which does (from a locking perspective)
rtnl_lock()
wiphy_lock()
rtnl_unlock()
might be suspectible to ABBA deadlocks, because rtnl_unlock()
calls netdev_run_todo(), which might end up calling rtnl_lock()
again, which could then deadlock (see the comment in the code
added here for the scenario).
Some back and forth and thinking ensued, but clearly this can't
happen if the net_todo_list is empty at the rtnl_unlock() here.
Clearly, the code here cannot actually put an entry on it, and
all other users of rtnl_unlock() will empty it since that will
always go through netdev_run_todo(), emptying the list.
So the only other way to get there would be to add to the list
and then unlock the RTNL without going through rtnl_unlock(),
which is only possible through __rtnl_unlock(). However, this
isn't exported and not used in many places, and none of them
seem to be able to unregister before using it.
Therefore, add a WARN_ON() in the code to ensure this invariant
won't be broken, so that the cfg80211 (or any similar) code
stays safe.
