ubuf info allocator uses guest controlled head as an index,
so a malicious guest could put the same head entry in the ring twice,
and we will get two callbacks on the same value.
To fix use upend_idx which is guaranteed to be unique.

Currently, the polling errors were ignored, which can lead following issues:
- vhost remove itself unconditionally from waitqueue when stopping the poll,
this may crash the kernel since the previous attempt of starting may fail to
add itself to the waitqueue
- userspace may think the backend were successfully set even when the polling
failed.
Solve this by:
- check poll->wqh before trying to remove from waitqueue
- report polling errors in vhost_poll_start(), tx_poll_start(), the return value
will be checked and returned when userspace want to set the backend
After this fix, there still could be a polling failure after backend is set, it
will addressed by the next patch.

Zero copy TX has been around for a while now.
We seem to be down to eliminating theoretical bugs
and performance tuning at this point:
it's probably time to enable it by default so that
most users get the benefit.
Keep the flag around meanwhile so users can experiment
with disabling this if they experience regressions.
I expect that we will remove it in the future.

For short packets zerocopy mode adds overhead
of managing heads which isn't necessary: we
could simly update used ring directly
same as with zerocopy disabled.
Things seem to run a bit faster if we detect
and bypass head management when zcopy isn't used.

When memory map changes, we need to flush outstanding
DMAs as they might in theory reference old memory addresses.
To do this simply stop initiating new DMAs
and wait for ubufs ref count to drop to 0.
Afterwards reset the count back to 1.

vring changes already do a flush internally where appropriate, so we do
not need a second flush.
It's currently not very expensive but a follow-up patch makes flush more
heavy-weight, so remove the extra flush here to avoid regressing
performance if call or kick fds are changed on data path.

These packet counters are used to drive the zercopy
selection heuristic so nothing too bad happens if they are off a bit -
and they are also reset once in a while.
But it's cleaner to clear them when backend is set so that
we start in a known state.

Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode,
net core might still decide to copy the skb later
which is somewhat slower than a copy in user
context: data copy overhead is added to the cost of
page pin/unpin. The result is that enabling tx zero copy
option leads to higher CPU utilization for guest to guest
and guest to host traffic.
To fix this, suppress zero copy tx after a given number of
packets triggered late data copy. Re-enable periodically
to detect workload changes.

Currently, we restart tx polling unconditionally when sendmsg()
fails. This would cause unnecessary wakeups of vhost wokers and waste
cpu utlization when evil userspace(guest driver) is able to hit EFAULT or
EINVAL.
The polling is only needed when the socket send buffer were exceeded or not
enough memory. So fix this by restarting polling only when sendmsg() returns
EAGAIN/ENOBUFS.

>From: Shirley Ma <mashirle@us.ibm.com>
This adds experimental zero copy support in vhost-net,
disabled by default. To enable, set
experimental_zcopytx module option to 1.
This patch maintains the outstanding userspace buffers in the
sequence it is delivered to vhost. The outstanding userspace buffers
will be marked as done once the lower device buffers DMA has finished.
This is monitored through last reference of kfree_skb callback. Two
buffer indices are used for this purpose.
The vhost-net device passes the userspace buffers info to lower device
skb through message control. DMA done status check and guest
notification are handled by handle_tx: in the worst case is all buffers
in the vq are in pending/done status, so we need to notify guest to
release DMA done buffers first before we get any new buffers from the
vq.
One known problem is that if the guest stops submitting
buffers, buffers might never get used until some
further action, e.g. device reset. This does not
seem to affect linux guests.

Codes duplication were found between the handling of mergeable and big
buffers, so this patch tries to unify them. This could be easily done
by adding a quota to the get_rx_bufs() which is used to limit the
number of buffers it returns (for mergeable buffer, the quota is
simply UIO_MAXIOV, for big buffers, the quota is just 1), and then the
previous handle_rx_mergeable() could be resued also for big buffers.

All file_operations should get a .llseek operation so we can make
nonseekable_open the default for future file operations without a
.llseek pointer.
The three cases that we can automatically detect are no_llseek, seq_lseek
and default_llseek. For cases where we can we can automatically prove that
the file offset is always ignored, we use noop_llseek, which maintains
the current behavior of not returning an error from a seek.
New drivers should normally not use noop_llseek but instead use no_llseek
and call nonseekable_open at open time. Existing drivers can be converted
to do the same when the maintainer knows for certain that no user code
relies on calling seek on the device file.
The generated code is often incorrectly indented and right now contains
comments that clarify for each added line why a specific variant was
chosen. In the version that gets submitted upstream, the comments will
be gone and I will manually fix the indentation, because there does not
seem to be a way to do that using coccinelle.
Some amount of new code is currently sitting in linux-next that should get
the same modifications, which I will do at the end of the merge window.
Many thanks to Julia Lawall for helping me learn to write a semantic
patch that does all this.

In mergeable buffer case, we use headcount, log_num
and seg as indexes in same-size arrays, and
we know that headcount <= seg and
log_num equals either 0 or seg.
Therefore, the right thing to do is range-check seg,
not headcount as we do now: these will be different
if guest chains s/g descriptors (this does not
happen now, but we can not trust the guest).
Long term, we should add BUG_ON checks to verify
two other indexes are what we think they should be.

This adds support for mergeable buffers in vhost-net: this is needed
for older guests without indirect buffer support, as well
as for zero copy with some devices.
Includes changes by Michael S. Tsirkin to make the
patch as low risk as possible (i.e., close to no changes
when feature is disabled).

Replace vhost_workqueue with per-vhost kthread. Other than callback
argument change from struct work_struct * to struct vhost_work *,
there's no visible change to vhost_poll_*() interface.
This conversion is to make each vhost use a dedicated kthread so that
resource control via cgroup can be applied.
Partially based on Sridhar Samudrala's patch.
* Updated to use sub structure vhost_work instead of directly using
vhost_poll at Michael's suggestion.
* Added flusher wake_up() optimization at Michael's suggestion.
Changes by MST:
* Converted atomics/barrier use to a spinlock.
* Create thread on SET_OWNER
* Fix flushing

Fix merge conflict in drivers/vhost/net.c with guidance from
Stephen Rothwell.
Revert the effects of net-2.6 commit 573201f36fd9c7c6d5218cdcd9948cee700b277d
since net-next-2.6 has fixes that make bridge netpoll work properly thus
we don't need it disabled.
