Extend existing support for netdevice receive queue sysfs attributes to
permit a device-specific attribute group. Initial use case for this
support will be to allow the virtio-net device to export per-receive
queue mergeable receive buffer size.

skb_page_frag_refill currently permits only order-0 page allocs
unless GFP_WAIT is used. Change skb_page_frag_refill to attempt
higher-order page allocations whether or not GFP_WAIT is used. If
memory cannot be allocated, the allocator will fall back to
successively smaller page allocs (down to order-0 page allocs).
This change brings skb_page_frag_refill in line with the existing
page allocation strategy employed by netdev_alloc_frag, which attempts
higher-order page allocations whether or not GFP_WAIT is set, falling
back to successively lower-order page allocations on failure. Part
of migration of virtio-net to per-receive queue page frag allocators.

Comparing the behaviour of how to wait for events in TIPC sendmsg()
with other stacks, the TIPC implementation might be perceived as
different, and sometimes even incorrect. For instance, sk_sleep()
and tport->congested variables associated with socket are exposed
without socket lock protection while wait_event_interruptible_timeout()
accesses them. So standardizing it with similar implementation
in other stacks can help us correct these errors which the process
of calling sendmsg() cannot be woken up event if an expected event
arrive at socket or improperly woken up although the wake condition
doesn't match.

Comparing the behaviour of how to wait for events in TIPC accept()
with other stacks, the TIPC implementation might be perceived as
different, and sometimes even incorrect. As sk_sleep() and
sk->sk_receive_queue variables associated with socket are not
protected by socket lock, the process of calling accept() may be
woken up improperly or sometimes cannot be woken up at all. After
standardizing it with inet_csk_wait_for_connect routine, we can
get benefits including: avoiding 'thundering herd' phenomenon,
adding a timeout mechanism for accept(), coping with a pending
signal, and having sk_sleep() and sk->sk_receive_queue being
always protected within socket lock scope and so on.

Comparing the behaviour of how to wait for events in TIPC connect()
with other stacks, the TIPC implementation might be perceived as
different, and sometimes even incorrect. For instance, as both
sock->state and sk_sleep() are directly fed to
wait_event_interruptible_timeout() as its arguments, and socket lock
has to be released before we call wait_event_interruptible_timeout(),
the two variables associated with socket are exposed out of socket
lock protection, thereby probably getting stale values so that the
process of calling connect() cannot be woken up exactly even if
correct event arrives or it is woken up improperly even if the wake
condition is not satisfied in practice. Therefore, standardizing its
behaviour with sk_stream_wait_connect routine can avoid these risks.
Additionally the implementation of connect routine is simplified as a
whole, allowing it to return correct values in all different cases.

Currently, if a device changes its mtu, first the change happens (invloving
all the side effects), and after that the NETDEV_CHANGEMTU is sent so that
other devices can catch up with the new mtu. However, if they return
NOTIFY_BAD, then the change is reverted and error returned.
This is a really long and costy operation (sometimes). To fix this, add
NETDEV_PRECHANGEMTU notification which is called prior to any change
actually happening, and if any callee returns NOTIFY_BAD - the change is
aborted. This way we're skipping all the playing with apply/revert the mtu.

When initializing a gro_list for a packet, first check the rxhash of
the incoming skb against that of the skb's in the list. This should be
a very strong inidicator of whether the flow is going to be matched,
and potentially allows a lot of other checks to be short circuited.
Use skb_hash_raw so that we don't force the hash to be calculated.
Tested by running netperf 200 TCP_STREAMs between two machines with
GRO, HW rxhash, and 1G. Saw no performance degration, slight reduction
of time in dev_gro_receive.

In PF_PACKET's packet mmap(), we can avoid using one atomic_inc()
and one atomic_dec() call in skb destructor and use a percpu
reference count instead in order to determine if packets are
still pending to be sent out. Micro-benchmark with [1] that has
been slightly modified (that is, protcol = 0 in socket(2) and
bind(2)), example on a rather crappy testing machine; I expect
it to scale and have even better results on bigger machines:
./packet_mm_tx -s7000 -m7200 -z700000 em1, avg over 2500 runs:
With patch: 4,022,015 cyc
Without patch: 4,812,994 cyc

Without patch:

user 0m0.265s
sys 1m35.572s
In function tpacket_snd(), it is okay to use packet_read_pending()
since in fast-path we short-circuit the condition already with
ph != NULL, since we have next frames to process. In case we have
MSG_DONTWAIT, we also do not execute this path as need_wait is
false here anyway, and in case of _no_ MSG_DONTWAIT flag, it is
okay to call a packet_read_pending(), because when we ever reach
that path, we're done processing outgoing frames anyway and only
look if there are skbs still outstanding to be orphaned. We can
stay lockless in this percpu counter since it's acceptable when we
reach this path for the sum to be imprecise first, but we'll level
out at 0 after all pending frames have reached the skb destructor
eventually through tx reclaim. When people pin a tx process to
particular CPUs, we expect overflows to happen in the reference
counter as on one CPU we expect heavy increase; and distributed
through ksoftirqd on all CPUs a decrease, for example. As
David Laight points out, since the C language doesn't define the
result of signed int overflow (i.e. rather than wrap, it is
allowed to saturate as a possible outcome), we have to use
unsigned int as reference count. The sum over all CPUs when tx
is complete will result in 0 again.
The BUG_ON() in tpacket_destruct_skb() we can remove as well. It
can _only_ be set from inside tpacket_snd() path and we made sure
to increase tx_ring.pending in any case before we called po->xmit(skb).
So testing for tx_ring.pending == 0 is not too useful. Instead, it
would rather have been useful to test if lower layers didn't orphan
the skb so that we're missing ring slots being put back to
TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE. But such a bug will be caught in user space
already as we end up realizing that we do not have any
TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE slots left anymore. Therefore, we're all set.
Btw, in case of RX_RING path, we do not make use of the pending
member, therefore we also don't need to use up any percpu memory
here. Also note that __alloc_percpu() already returns a zero-filled
percpu area, so initialization is done already.

In tpacket_snd(), when we've discovered a first frame that is
not in status TP_STATUS_SEND_REQUEST, and return a NULL buffer,
we exit the send routine in case of MSG_DONTWAIT, since we've
finished traversing the mmaped send ring buffer and don't care
about pending frames.
While doing so, we still unconditionally call an expensive
schedule() in the packet_current_frame() "error" path, which
is unnecessary in this case since it's enough to just quit
the function.
Also, in case MSG_DONTWAIT is not set, we should rather test
for need_resched() first and do schedule() only if necessary
since meanwhile pending frames could already have finished
processing and called skb destructor.

Most people acquire PF_PACKET sockets with a protocol argument in
the socket call, e.g. libpcap does so with htons(ETH_P_ALL) for
all its sockets. Most likely, at some point in time a subsequent
bind() call will follow, e.g. in libpcap with ...
memset(&sll, 0, sizeof(sll));
sll.sll_family = AF_PACKET;
sll.sll_ifindex = ifindex;
sll.sll_protocol = htons(ETH_P_ALL);
... as arguments. What happens in the kernel is that already
in socket() syscall, we install a proto hook via register_prot_hook()
if our protocol argument is != 0. Yet, in bind() we're almost
doing the same work by doing a unregister_prot_hook() with an
expensive synchronize_net() call in case during socket() the proto
was != 0, plus follow-up register_prot_hook() with a bound device
to it this time, in order to limit traffic we get.
In the case when the protocol and user supplied device index (== 0)
does not change from socket() to bind(), we can spare us doing
the same work twice. Similarly for re-binding to the same device
and protocol. For these scenarios, we can decrease create/bind
latency from ~7447us (sock-bind-2 case) to ~89us (sock-bind-1 case)
with this patch.
Alternatively, for the first case, if people care, they should
simply create their sockets with proto == 0 argument and define
the protocol during bind() as this saves a call to synchronize_net()
as well (sock-bind-3 case).
In all other cases, we're tied to user space behaviour we must not
change, also since a bind() is not strictly required. Thus, we need
the synchronize_net() to make sure no asynchronous packet processing
paths still refer to the previous elements of po->prot_hook.
In case of mmap()ed sockets, the workflow that includes bind() is
socket() -> setsockopt(<ring>) -> bind(). In that case, a pair of
{__unregister, register}_prot_hook is being called from setsockopt()
in order to install the new protocol receive handler. Thus, when
we call bind and can skip a re-hook, we have already previously
installed the new handler. For fanout, this is handled different
entirely, so we should be good.
Timings on an i7-3520M machine:
* sock-bind-1: 89 us
* sock-bind-2: 7447 us
* sock-bind-3: 75 us
sock-bind-1:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, htons(ETH_P_IP)) = 3
bind(3, {sa_family=AF_PACKET, proto=htons(ETH_P_IP), if=all(0),
pkttype=PACKET_HOST, addr(0)={0, }, 20) = 0

Recent commit 438e38fadca2f6e57eeecc08326c8a95758594d4
("gre_offload: statically build GRE offloading support") added
new module_init/module_exit calls to the gre_offload.c file.
The file is obj-y and can't be anything other than built-in.
Currently it can never be built modular, so using module_init
as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.
Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing. We also make the inclusion explicit.
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall
directly in this change means that the runtime impact is
zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.
As for the module_exit, rather than replace it with __exitcall,
we simply remove it, since it appears only UML does anything
with those, and even for UML, there is no relevant cleanup
to be done here.

eth_type_trans() can read uninitialized memory as drivers
do not necessarily pull more than 14 bytes in skb->head before

eth_type_trans() pulling 2 additional bytes.

Refactor the deletion/update of prefix routes when removing an
address. Now also consider IFA_F_NOPREFIXROUTE and if there is an address
present with this flag, to not cleanup the route. Instead, assume
that userspace is taking care of this route.
Also perform the same cleanup, when userspace changes an existing address
to add NOPREFIXROUTE (to an address that didn't have this flag). This is
done because when the address was added, a prefix route was created for it.
Since the user now wants to handle this route by himself, we cleanup this
route.
This cleanup of the route is not totally robust. There is no guarantee,
that the route we are about to delete was really the one added by the
kernel. This behavior does not change by the patch, and in practice it
should work just fine.

It confuses Smatch when we check "sinit" for NULL and then non-NULL and
that causes a false positive warning later.

This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces
them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to
use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around.
This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32.

We still need this notifier even when we don't config
PROC_FS.
It should be rare to have a kernel without PROC_FS,
so just for completeness.

The existing net/netif_rx and net/netif_receive_skb trace events
provide little information about the skb, nor do they indicate how it
entered the stack.
Add trace events at entry of each of the exported functions, including
most fields that are likely to be interesting for debugging driver
datapath behaviour. Split netif_rx() and netif_receive_skb() so that
internal calls are not traced.

The existing net/net_dev_xmit trace event provides little information
about the skb that has been passed to the driver, and it is not
simple to add more since the skb may already have been freed at
the point the event is emitted.
Add a separate trace event before the skb is passed to the driver,
including most fields that are likely to be interesting for debugging
driver datapath behaviour.
