[ Upstream commit b4fe85f9c9146f60457e9512fb6055e69e6a7a65 ]

Drivers like vxlan use the recently introduced
udp_tunnel_xmit_skb/udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb APIs. udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb
makes use of ip6tunnel_xmit, and ip6tunnel_xmit, after sending the
packet, updates the struct stats using the usual
u64_stats_update_begin/end calls on this_cpu_ptr(dev-&gt;tstats).
udp_tunnel_xmit_skb makes use of iptunnel_xmit, which doesn't touch
tstats, so drivers like vxlan, immediately after, call
iptunnel_xmit_stats, which does the same thing - calls
u64_stats_update_begin/end on this_cpu_ptr(dev-&gt;tstats).

While vxlan is probably fine (I don't know?), calling a similar function
from, say, an unbound workqueue, on a fully preemptable kernel causes
real issues:

[  188.434537] BUG: using smp_processor_id() in preemptible [00000000] code: kworker/u8:0/6
[  188.435579] caller is debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x20
[  188.435583] CPU: 0 PID: 6 Comm: kworker/u8:0 Not tainted 4.2.6 #2

[  188.435619]  [&lt;ffffffff81915f77&gt;] debug_smp_processor_id+0x17/0x20

The solution would be to protect the whole
this_cpu_ptr(dev-&gt;tstats)/u64_stats_update_begin/end blocks with
disabling preemption and then reenabling it.

Like the previous patch, which fixes ipv4 tunnels, here is the ipv6 part.

Before the patch, the external ipv6 header + gre header were included on
tx.

idst-&gt;cookie.  It also makes dst freeing from fib tree to undergo a
rcu grace period.

<id>urn:sha1:cdf3464e6c6bd764277cbbe992cd12da735b92fb</id>
<content type='text'>
Problems in the current dst_entry cache in the ip6_tunnel:

1. ip6_tnl_dst_set is racy.  There is no lock to protect it:
   - One major problem is that the dst refcnt gets messed up. F.e.
     the same dst_cache can be released multiple times and then
     triggering the infamous dst refcnt &lt; 0 warning message.
   - Another issue is the inconsistency between dst_cache and
     dst_cookie.

   It can be reproduced by adding and removing the ip6gre tunnel
   while running a super_netperf TCP_CRR test.

2. ip6_tnl_dst_get does not take the dst refcnt before returning
   the dst.

This patch:
1. Create a percpu dst_entry cache in ip6_tnl
2. Use a spinlock to protect the dst_cache operations
3. ip6_tnl_dst_get always takes the dst refcnt before returning

It is a prep work to fix the dst_entry refcnt bugs in
ip6_tunnel.

This patch rename:
1. ip6_tnl_dst_check() to ip6_tnl_dst_get() to better
   reflect that it will take a dst refcnt in the next patch.
2. ip6_tnl_dst_store() to ip6_tnl_dst_set() to have a more
   conventional name matching with ip6_tnl_dst_get().

That was we can make sure the output path of ipv4/ipv6 operate on
the UDP socket rather than whatever random thing happens to be in
skb-&gt;sk.

<id>urn:sha1:d50051407f136028108cfda068d55ef053a54fe1</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently we need the IP6_TNL_F_CAP_XMIT capabiltiy to transmit
packets through an ipv6 tunnel. This capability is set when the
tunnel gets configured, based on the tunnel endpoint addresses.

On tunnels with wildcard tunnel endpoints, we need to do the
capabiltiy checking on a per packet basis like it is done in
the receive path.

This patch extends ip6_tnl_xmit_ctl() to take local and remote
addresses as parameters to allow for per packet capabiltiy
checking.

They are same, so unify them as one, pcpu_sw_netstats.

Define pcpu_sw_netstat in netdevice.h, remove pcpu_tstats
from if_tunnel and remove br_cpu_netstats from br_private.h
