The new netlink API is no longer "v2" but rather the standard API and
the legacy API is now "nl compat". We split them into separate
start/stop and put them in different files in order to further
distinguish them.

Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from
hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic
is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated.
Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good
for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close().
(FIN , ACK packets, ...)
This patch extends the information stored into global hash table
to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value.
I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts.
For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the
cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash.
Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have
a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big
enough.
If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if
it is enabled for the rxqueue).
This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the
IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU.
This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket
close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

rt6_probe allocates a struct __rt6_probe_work and schedules a work handler rt6_probe_deferred.
But rt6_probe_deferred kfree's the struct work_struct instead of struct __rt6_probe_work.
This works, because struct work_struct is the first element of struct __rt6_probe_work.
Change it to kfree struct __rt6_probe_work to not implicitly depend on
struct work_struct being the first element.
This does not affect the generated code.

tcp: mitigate TCP ACK loops due to out-of-window validation dupacks
This patch series mitigates "ack loop" DoS scenarios by rate-limiting
outgoing duplicate ACKs sent in response to incoming "out of window"
segments.
Background
-----------
There are several cases in which the TCP RFCs specify that a TCP
endpoint should send a pure duplicate ACK in response to a pure
duplicate ACK that appears to be invalid due to being "out of window":
(1) RFC 793 (section 3.9, page 69) specifies that endpoints should
send a duplicate ACK in response to an ACK when the incoming
sequence number is invalid due to being outside the receive
window: "If an incoming segment is not acceptable, an
acknowledgment should be sent in reply".
(2) RFC 793 (section 3.9, page 72) says: "If the ACK acknowledges
something not yet sent (SEG.ACK > SND.NXT) then send an ACK".
(3) RFC 1323 (section 4.2.1, page 18) specifies that endpoints should
send a duplicate ACK in response to an ACK when the PAWS check for
the incoming timestamp value fails: "If .... SEG.TSval < TS.Recent
and if TS.Recent is valid ... Send an acknowledgement in reply"
The problem
------------
Normally, this is not a problem. However, a buggy middlebox or
malicious man-in-the-middle can inject a few packets into the
conversation that advance each endpoint's notion of the current window
(sequence, ACK, or timestamp), without either side noticing. In this
case, from then on each side can think the other is sending invalid
segments. Thus an infinite feedback loop of duplicate ACKs can ensue,
as each endpoint receives a duplicate ACK, decides that it is invalid
(due to sequence number, ACK number, or timestamp), and then sends a
dupack in reply, which the other side decides is invalid, responding
with a dupack... ad infinitum. This ping-pong feedback loop can happen
at a very high rate.
This phenomenon can and does happen in practice. It has been seen in
datacenter and Internet contexts at Google, and has been documented by
Anil Agarwal in the Nov 2013 tcpm thread "TCP mismatched sequence
numbers issue", and Avery Fay in the Feb 2015 Linux netdev thread
"Invalid timestamp? causing tight ack loop (hundreds of thousands of
packets / sec)".
This patch series
------------------
This patch series mitigates such ack loops by rate-limiting outgoing
duplicate ACKs sent in response to incoming TCP packets that are for
an existing connection but that are invalid due to any of the reasons
mentioned above: sequence number (1), ACK field (2), or timestamp
value (3). The rate limit for such duplicate ACKs is specified by a
new sysctl, tcp_invalid_ratelimit, which specifies the minimal space
between such outbound duplicate ACKs, in milliseconds. The default is
500 (500ms), and 0 disables the mechanism.
We rate-limit these duplicate ACK responses rather than blocking them
entirely or resetting the connection, because legitimate connections
can rely on dupacks in response to some out-of-window segments. For
example, zero window probes are typically sent with a sequence number
that is below the current window, and ZWPs thus expect to thus elicit
a dupack in response.
Testing: this approach has been in use at Google for a while.

Ensure that in state FIN_WAIT2 or TIME_WAIT, where the connection is
represented by a tcp_timewait_sock, we rate limit dupacks in response
to incoming packets (a) with TCP timestamps that fail PAWS checks, or
(b) with sequence numbers that are out of the acceptable window.
We do not send a dupack in response to out-of-window packets if it has
been less than sysctl_tcp_invalid_ratelimit (default 500ms) since we
last sent a dupack in response to an out-of-window packet.

There is already a similar (although global) rate-limiting mechanism
for "challenge ACKs". When deciding whether to send a challence ACK,
we first consult the new per-connection rate limit, and then the
global rate limit.

In the SYN_RECV state, where the TCP connection is represented by
tcp_request_sock, we now rate-limit SYNACKs in response to a client's
retransmitted SYNs: we do not send a SYNACK in response to client SYN
if it has been less than sysctl_tcp_invalid_ratelimit (default 500ms)
since we last sent a SYNACK in response to a client's retransmitted
SYN.
This allows the vast majority of legitimate client connections to
proceed unimpeded, even for the most aggressive platforms, iOS and
MacOS, which actually retransmit SYNs 1-second intervals for several
times in a row. They use SYN RTO timeouts following the progression:
1,1,1,1,1,2,4,8,16,32.

Helpers for mitigating ACK loops by rate-limiting dupacks sent in
response to incoming out-of-window packets.
This patch includes:
- rate-limiting logic
- sysctl to control how often we allow dupacks to out-of-window packets
- SNMP counter for cases where we rate-limited our dupack sending
The rate-limiting logic in this patch decides to not send dupacks in
response to out-of-window segments if (a) they are SYNs or pure ACKs
and (b) the remote endpoint is sending them faster than the configured
rate limit.
We rate-limit our responses rather than blocking them entirely or
resetting the connection, because legitimate connections can rely on
dupacks in response to some out-of-window segments. For example, zero
window probes are typically sent with a sequence number that is below
the current window, and ZWPs thus expect to thus elicit a dupack in
response.
We allow dupacks in response to TCP segments with data, because these
may be spurious retransmissions for which the remote endpoint wants to
receive DSACKs. This is safe because segments with data can't
realistically be part of ACK loops, which by their nature consist of
each side sending pure/data-less ACKs to each other.
The dupack interval is controlled by a new sysctl knob,
tcp_invalid_ratelimit, given in milliseconds, in case an administrator
needs to dial this upward in the face of a high-rate DoS attack. The
name and units are chosen to be analogous to the existing analogous
knob for ICMP, icmp_ratelimit.
The default value for tcp_invalid_ratelimit is 500ms, which allows at
most one such dupack per 500ms. This is chosen to be 2x faster than
the 1-second minimum RTO interval allowed by RFC 6298 (section 2, rule
2.4). We allow the extra 2x factor because network delay variations
can cause packets sent at 1 second intervals to be compressed and
arrive much closer.

====================
be2net: patch set
Hi Dave, pls consider applying the following patch-set to the
net-next tree. It has 5 code/style cleanup patches and 4 patches that
add functionality to the driver.
Patch 1 moves routines that were not needed to be in be.h to the respective
src files, to avoid unnecessary compilation.
Patch 2 replaces (1 << x) with BIT(x) macro
Patch 3 refactors code that checks if a FW flash file is compatible
with the adapter. The code is now refactored into 2 routines, the first one
gets the file type from the image file and the 2nd routine checks if the
file type is compatible with the adapter.
Patch 4 adds compatibility checks for flashing a FW image on the new
Skyhawk P2 HW revision.
Patch 5 adds support for a new "offset based" flashing scheme, wherein
the driver informs the FW of the offset at which each component in the flash
file is to be flashed at. This helps flashing components that were
previously not recognized by the running FW.
Patch 6 simplifies the be_cmd_rx_filter() routine, by passing to it the
filter flags already used in the FW cmd, instead of the netdev flags that
were converted to the FW-cmd flags.
Patch 7 introduces helper routines in be_set_rx_mode() and be_vid_config()
to improve code readability.
Patch 8 adds processing of port-misconfig async event sent by the FW.
Patch 9 removes unnecessary swapping of a field in the TX desc.

The 32-bit fields of a tx-wrb are little endian. The driver is currently
using be_dws_le_to_cpu() routine to swap (cpu to le) all the fields of
a tx-wrb. So, the rsvd field is also unnecessarily swapped.
This patch fixes this by individually swapping the required fields.
Also, the type of the fields in eth_tx_wrb{} is now changed to __le32
from u32 to avoid sparse warnings.
