Zapping pages is required only if we are calling vm_insert_page into a
region where pages had previously been mapped. Receive zerocopy allows
reusing such regions, and hitherto called zap_page_range() before
calling vm_insert_page() in that range.
zap_page_range() can also be triggered from userspace with
madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). If userspace is configured to call this before
reusing a segment, or if there was nothing mapped at this virtual
address to begin with, we can avoid calling zap_page_range() under the
socket lock. That said, if userspace does not do that, then we are
still responsible for calling zap_page_range().
This patch adds a flag that the user can use to hint to the kernel
that a zap is not required. If the flag is not set, or if an older
user application does not have a flags field at all, then the kernel
calls zap_page_range as before. Also, if the flag is set but a zap is
still required, the kernel performs that zap as necessary. Thus
incorrectly indicating that a zap can be avoided does not change the
correctness of operation. It also increases the batchsize for
vm_insert_pages and prefetches the page struct for the batch since
we're about to bump the refcount.
An alternative mechanism could be to not have a flag, assume by
default a zap is not needed, and fall back to zapping if needed.
However, this would harm performance for older applications for which
a zap is necessary, and thus we implement it with an explicit flag
so newer applications can opt in.
When using RPC-style traffic with medium sized (tens of KB) RPCs, this
change yields an efficency improvement of about 30% for QPS/CPU usage.

When TCP receive zerocopy does not successfully map the entire
requested space, it outputs a 'hint' that the caller should recvmsg().
Augment zerocopy to accept a user buffer that it tries to copy this
hint into - if it is possible to copy the entire hint, it will do so.
This elides a recvmsg() call for received traffic that isn't exactly
page-aligned in size.
This was tested with RPC-style traffic of arbitrary sizes. Normally,
each received message required at least one getsockopt() call, and one
recvmsg() call for the remaining unaligned data.
With this change, almost all of the recvmsg() calls are eliminated,
leading to a savings of about 25%-50% in number of system calls
for RPC-style workloads.

SRv6 End.DT4 is defined in the SRv6 Network Programming [1].
The SRv6 End.DT4 is used to implement IPv4 L3VPN use-cases in
multi-tenants environments. It decapsulates the received packets and it
performs IPv4 routing lookup in the routing table of the tenant.
The SRv6 End.DT4 Linux implementation leverages a VRF device in order to
force the routing lookup into the associated routing table.
To make the End.DT4 work properly, it must be guaranteed that the routing
table used for routing lookup operations is bound to one and only one
VRF during the tunnel creation. Such constraint has to be enforced by
enabling the VRF strict_mode sysctl parameter, i.e:
$ sysctl -wq net.vrf.strict_mode=1.
At JANOG44, LINE corporation presented their multi-tenant DC architecture
using SRv6 [2]. In the slides, they reported that the Linux kernel is
missing the support of SRv6 End.DT4 behavior.
The SRv6 End.DT4 behavior can be instantiated using a command similar to
the following:
$ ip route add 2001:db8::1 encap seg6local action End.DT4 vrftable 100 dev eth0
We introduce the "vrftable" extension in iproute2 in a following patch.

A batadv net_device is associated to a B.A.T.M.A.N. routing algorithm. This
algorithm has to be selected before the interface is initialized and cannot
be changed after that. The only way to select this algorithm was a module
parameter which specifies the default algorithm used during the creation of
the net_device.
This module parameter is writeable over
/sys/module/batman_adv/parameters/routing_algo and thus allows switching of
the routing algorithm:
1. change routing_algo parameter
2. create new batadv net_device
But this is not race free because another process can be scheduled between
1 + 2 and in that time frame change the routing_algo parameter again.
It is much cleaner to directly provide this information inside the
rtnetlink's RTM_NEWLINK message. The two processes would be (in regards of
the creation parameter of their batadv interfaces) be isolated. This also
eases the integration of batadv devices inside tools like network-manager
or systemd-networkd which are not expecting to operate on /sys before a new
net_device is created.

The batadv generic netlink family can be used to retrieve the current state
and set various configuration settings. But there are also settings which
must be set before the actual interface is created.
The rtnetlink already uses IFLA_INFO_DATA to allow net_device families to
transfer such configurations. The minimal required functionality for this
is now available for the batadv rtnl_link_ops. Also a new IFLA class of
attributes will be attached to it because rtnetlink only allows 51
different attributes but batadv_nl_attrs already contains 62 attributes.

Add ability for user-space programs to specify non-vmlinux BTF when attaching
BTF-powered BPF programs: raw_tp, fentry/fexit/fmod_ret, LSM, etc. For this,
attach_prog_fd (now with the alias name attach_btf_obj_fd) should specify FD
of a module or vmlinux BTF object. For backwards compatibility reasons,
0 denotes vmlinux BTF. Only kernel BTF (vmlinux or module) can be specified.

Background:
Broadcast and multicast packages are enqueued for later processing.
This queue was previously hardcoded to 1000.
This proved insufficient for handling very high packet rates.
This resulted in packet drops for multicast.
While at the same time unicast worked fine.
The change:
This patch make the queue length adjustable to accommodate
for environments with very high multicast packet rate.
But still keeps the default value of 1000 unless specified.
The queue length is specified as a request per macvlan
using the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN parameter.
The actual used queue length will then be the maximum of
any macvlan connected to the same port. The actual used
queue length for the port can be retrieved (read only)
by the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN_USED parameter for verification.
This will be followed up by a patch to iproute2
in order to adjust the parameter from userspace.

The existing busy-polling mode, enabled by the SO_BUSY_POLL socket
option or system-wide using the /proc/sys/net/core/busy_read knob, is
an opportunistic. That means that if the NAPI context is not
scheduled, it will poll it. If, after busy-polling, the budget is
exceeded the busy-polling logic will schedule the NAPI onto the
regular softirq handling.
One implication of the behavior above is that a busy/heavy loaded NAPI
context will never enter/allow for busy-polling. Some applications
prefer that most NAPI processing would be done by busy-polling.
This series adds a new socket option, SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, that works
in concert with the napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout
knobs. The napi_defer_hard_irqs and gro_flush_timeout knobs were
introduced in commit 6f8b12d661 ("net: napi: add hard irqs deferral
feature"), and allows for a user to defer interrupts to be enabled and
instead schedule the NAPI context from a watchdog timer. When a user
enables the SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL, again with the other knobs enabled,
and the NAPI context is being processed by a softirq, the softirq NAPI
processing will exit early to allow the busy-polling to be performed.
If the application stops performing busy-polling via a system call,
the watchdog timer defined by gro_flush_timeout will timeout, and
regular softirq handling will resume.
In summary; Heavy traffic applications that prefer busy-polling over
softirq processing should use this option.
Example usage:
$ echo 2 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/napi_defer_hard_irqs
$ echo 200000 | sudo tee /sys/class/net/ens785f1/gro_flush_timeout
Note that the timeout should be larger than the userspace processing
window, otherwise the watchdog will timeout and fall back to regular
softirq processing.
Enable the SO_BUSY_POLL/SO_PREFER_BUSY_POLL options on your socket.

Currently, the openvswitch module is not accepting the correctly formated
netlink message for the TTL decrement action. For both setting and getting
the dec_ttl action, the actions should be nested in the
OVS_DEC_TTL_ATTR_ACTION attribute as mentioned in the openvswitch.h uapi.
When the original patch was sent, it was tested with a private OVS userspace
implementation. This implementation was unfortunately not upstreamed and
reviewed, hence an erroneous version of this patch was sent out.
Leaving the patch as-is would cause problems as the kernel module could
interpret additional attributes as actions and vice-versa, due to the
actions not being encapsulated/nested within the actual attribute, but
being concatinated after it.
