Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.
12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.
13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.
Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.
Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y
The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.
This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.
Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
netif_keep_dst(dev);
Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.
The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Earlier change to use usable slave array for TLB mode had an additional
performance advantage. So extending the same logic to all other modes
that use xmit-hash for slave selection (viz 802.3AD, and XOR modes).
Also consolidating this with the earlier TLB change.
The main idea is to build the usable slaves array in the control path
and use that array for slave selection during xmit operation.
Measured performance in a setup with a bond of 4x1G NICs with 200
instances of netperf for the modes involved (3ad, xor, tlb)
cmd: netperf -t TCP_RR -H <TargetHost> -l 60 -s 5
Mode TPS-Before TPS-After
802.3ad : 468,694 493,101
TLB (lb=0): 392,583 392,965

As the code stands today, bonding stats are based simply on the stats
from the member interfaces. If a member was to be removed from a bond,
the stats would instantly drop. This would be confusing to an admin
would would suddonly see interface stats drop while traffic is still
flowing.
In addition to preventing the stats drops mentioned above, new members
will now be added to the bond and only traffic received after the member
was added to the bond will be counted as part of bonding stats. Bonding
counters will also be updated when any slaves are dropped to make sure
the reported stats are reliable.
v2: Changes suggested by Nik to properly allocate/free stats memory.
v3: Properly destroy workqueue and fix netlink configuration path.
v4: Moved cached stats into bonding and slave structs as there does not
seem to be a complexity/performance benefit to using alloc'd memory vs
in-struct memory.

First adjust a couple of locking comments that were left inaccurate,
then adjust comments to use the netdev styling and remove extra new
lines where necessary and add a couple of new lines between declarations
and code. These are all trivial styling changes, no functional change.
Also removed a couple of outdated or obvious comments.
This patch is by no means a complete fix of all netdev style violations
but it gets the bonding closer.

__rlb_next_rx_slave() is a copy of rlb_next_rx_slave() with the
difference that it uses rcu primitives to walk the slave list. We don't
need the two functions and can make rlb_next_rx_slave() a wrapper for
callers which hold RTNL.
So add a comment and ASSERT_RTNL() to make sure what is intended.

Now that we have bond->mode_lock, we can remove the state_machine_lock
and use it in its place. There're no fast paths requiring the per-port
spinlocks so it should be okay to consolidate them into mode_lock.
Also move it inside the unbinding function as we don't want to expose
mode_lock outside of the specific modes.

Mostly all users of curr_slave_lock already have RTNL as we've discussed
previously so there's no point in using it, the one case where the lock
must stay is the 3ad code, in fact it's the only one.
It's okay to remove it from bond_do_fail_over_mac() as it's called with
RTNL and drops the curr_slave_lock anyway.
bond_change_active_slave() is one of the main places where
curr_slave_lock was used, it's okay to remove it as all callers use RTNL
these days before calling it, that's why we move the ASSERT_RTNL() in
the beginning to catch any potential offenders to this rule.
The RTNL argument actually applies to all of the places where
curr_slave_lock has been removed from in this patch.
Also remove the unnecessary bond_deref_active_protected() macro and use
rtnl_dereference() instead.

First in rlb_teach_disabled_mac_on_primary() it's okay to remove
curr_slave_lock as all callers except bond_alb_monitor() already hold
RTNL, and in case bond_alb_monitor() is executing we can at most have a
period with bad throughput (very unlikely though).
In bond_alb_monitor() it's okay to remove the read_lock as the slave
list is walked with RCU and the worst that could happen is another
transmitter at the same time and thus for a period which currently is 10
seconds (bond_alb.h: BOND_ALB_LP_TICKS).
And bond_alb_handle_active_change() is okay because it's always called
with RTNL. Removed the ASSERT_RTNL() because it'll be inserted in the
parent function in a following patch.
