Protect call->state changes against the call being prematurely terminated
due to a signal.
What can happen is that a signal causes afs_wait_for_call_to_complete() to
abort an afs_call because it's not yet complete whilst afs_deliver_to_call()
is delivering data to that call.
If the data delivery causes the state to change, this may overwrite the state
of the afs_call, making it not-yet-complete again - but no further
notifications will be forthcoming from AF_RXRPC as the rxrpc call has been
aborted and completed, so kAFS will just hang in various places waiting for
that call or on page bits that need clearing by that call.
A tracepoint to monitor call state changes is also provided.

Because parsing of the directory wasn't being done under any sort of lock,
the pages holding the directory content can get invalidated whilst the
parsing is ongoing.
Further, the directory page check function gets called outside of the page
lock, so if the page gets cleared or updated, this may return reports of
bad magic numbers in the directory page.
Also, the directory may change size whilst checking and parsing are
ongoing, so more care needs to be taken here.
Fix this by:
(1) Perform the page check from the page filling function before we set
PageUptodate and drop the page lock.
(2) Check for the file having shrunk and the page having been abandoned
before checking the page contents.
(3) Lock the page whilst parsing it for the directory iterator.
Whilst we're at it, add a tracepoint to report check failure.

Fix the total-length calculation in afs_make_call() when the operation
being dispatched has data from a series of pages attached.
Despite the patched code looking like that it should reduce mathematically
to the current code, it doesn't because the 32-bit unsigned arithmetic
being used to calculate the page-offset-difference doesn't correctly extend
to a 64-bit value when the result is effectively negative.
Without this, some FS.StoreData operations that span multiple pages fail,
reporting too little or too much data.

YFS VL servers offer an upgraded Volume Location service that can return
IPv6 addresses to fileservers and volume servers in addition to IPv4
addresses using the YFSVL.GetEndpoints operation which we should use if
it's available.
To this end:
(1) Make rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() return the call's current service ID so
that the caller can detect service upgrade and see what the service
was upgraded to.
(2) When we see a VL server address we haven't seen before, send a
VL.GetCapabilities operation to it with the service upgrade bit set.
If we get an upgrade to the YFS VL service, change the service ID in
the address list for that address to use the upgraded service and set
a flag to note that this appears to be a YFS-compatible server.
(3) If, when a server's addresses are being looked up, we note that we
previously detected a YFS-compatible server, then send the
YFSVL.GetEndpoints operation rather than VL.GetAddrsU.
(4) Build a fileserver address list from the reply of YFSVL.GetEndpoints,
including both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Volume server addresses are
discarded.
(5) The address list is sorted by address and port now, instead of just
address. This allows multiple servers on the same host sitting on
different ports.

The current code assumes that volumes and servers are per-cell and are
never shared, but this is not enforced, and, indeed, public cells do exist
that are aliases of each other. Further, an organisation can, say, set up
a public cell and a private cell with overlapping, but not identical, sets
of servers. The difference is purely in the database attached to the VL
servers.
The current code will malfunction if it sees a server in two cells as it
assumes global address -> server record mappings and that each server is in
just one cell.
Further, each server may have multiple addresses - and may have addresses
of different families (IPv4 and IPv6, say).
To this end, the following structural changes are made:
(1) Server record management is overhauled:
(a) Server records are made independent of cell. The namespace keeps
track of them, volume records have lists of them and each vnode
has a server on which its callback interest currently resides.
(b) The cell record no longer keeps a list of servers known to be in
that cell.
(c) The server records are now kept in a flat list because there's no
single address to sort on.
(d) Server records are now keyed by their UUID within the namespace.
(e) The addresses for a server are obtained with the VL.GetAddrsU
rather than with VL.GetEntryByName, using the server's UUID as a
parameter.
(f) Cached server records are garbage collected after a period of
non-use and are counted out of existence before purging is allowed
to complete. This protects the work functions against rmmod.
(g) The servers list is now in /proc/fs/afs/servers.
(2) Volume record management is overhauled:
(a) An RCU-replaceable server list is introduced. This tracks both
servers and their coresponding callback interests.
(b) The superblock is now keyed on cell record and numeric volume ID.
(c) The volume record is now tied to the superblock which mounts it,
and is activated when mounted and deactivated when unmounted.
This makes it easier to handle the cache cookie without causing a
double-use in fscache.
(d) The volume record is loaded from the VLDB using VL.GetEntryByNameU
to get the server UUID list.
(e) The volume name is updated if it is seen to have changed when the
volume is updated (the update is keyed on the volume ID).
(3) The vlocation record is got rid of and VLDB records are no longer
cached. Sufficient information is stored in the volume record, though
an update to a volume record is now no longer shared between related
volumes (volumes come in bundles of three: R/W, R/O and backup).
and the following procedural changes are made:
(1) The fileserver cursor introduced previously is now fleshed out and
used to iterate over fileservers and their addresses.
(2) Volume status is checked during iteration, and the server list is
replaced if a change is detected.
(3) Server status is checked during iteration, and the address list is
replaced if a change is detected.
(4) The abort code is saved into the address list cursor and -ECONNABORTED
returned in afs_make_call() if a remote abort happened rather than
translating the abort into an error message. This allows actions to
be taken depending on the abort code more easily.
(a) If a VMOVED abort is seen then this is handled by rechecking the
volume and restarting the iteration.
(b) If a VBUSY, VRESTARTING or VSALVAGING abort is seen then this is
handled by sleeping for a short period and retrying and/or trying
other servers that might serve that volume. A message is also
displayed once until the condition has cleared.
(c) If a VOFFLINE abort is seen, then this is handled as VBUSY for the
moment.
(d) If a VNOVOL abort is seen, the volume is rechecked in the VLDB to
see if it has been deleted; if not, the fileserver is probably
indicating that the volume couldn't be attached and needs
salvaging.
(e) If statfs() sees one of these aborts, it does not sleep, but
rather returns an error, so as not to block the umount program.
(5) The fileserver iteration functions in vnode.c are now merged into
their callers and more heavily macroised around the cursor. vnode.c
is removed.
(6) Operations on a particular vnode are serialised on that vnode because
the server will lock that vnode whilst it operates on it, so a second
op sent will just have to wait.
(7) Fileservers are probed with FS.GetCapabilities before being used.
This is where service upgrade will be done.
(8) A callback interest on a fileserver is set up before an FS operation
is performed and passed through to afs_make_call() so that it can be
set on the vnode if the operation returns a callback. The callback
interest is passed through to afs_iget() also so that it can be set
there too.
In general, record updating is done on an as-needed basis when we try to
access servers, volumes or vnodes rather than offloading it to work items
and special threads.
Notes:
(1) Pre AFS-3.4 servers are no longer supported, though this can be added
back if necessary (AFS-3.4 was released in 1998).
(2) VBUSY is retried forever for the moment at intervals of 1s.
(3) /proc/fs/afs/<cell>/servers no longer exists.

Add an RCU replaceable address list structure to hold a list of server
addresses. The list also holds the
To this end:
(1) A cell's VL server address list can be loaded directly via insmod or
echo to /proc/fs/afs/cells or dynamically from a DNS query for AFSDB
or SRV records.
(2) Anyone wanting to use a cell's VL server address must wait until the
cell record comes online and has tried to obtain some addresses.
(3) An FS server's address list, for the moment, has a single entry that
is the key to the server list. This will change in the future when a
server is instead keyed on its UUID and the VL.GetAddrsU operation is
used.
(4) An 'address cursor' concept is introduced to handle iteration through
the address list. This is passed to the afs_make_call() as, in the
future, stuff (such as abort code) that doesn't outlast the call will
be returned in it.
In the future, we might want to annotate the list with information about
how each address fares. We might then want to propagate such annotations
over address list replacement.
Whilst we're at it, we allow IPv6 addresses to be specified in
colon-delimited lists by enclosing them in square brackets.

Overhaul the way that the in-kernel AFS client keeps track of cells in the
following manner:
(1) Cells are now held in an rbtree to make walking them quicker and RCU
managed (though this is probably overkill).
(2) Cells now have a manager work item that:
(A) Looks after fetching and refreshing the VL server list.
(B) Manages cell record lifetime, including initialising and
destruction.
(B) Manages cell record caching whereby threads are kept around for a
certain time after last use and then destroyed.
(C) Manages the FS-Cache index cookie for a cell. It is not permitted
for a cookie to be in use twice, so we have to be careful to not
allow a new cell record to exist at the same time as an old record
of the same name.
(3) Each AFS network namespace is given a manager work item that manages
the cells within it, maintaining a single timer to prod cells into
updating their DNS records.
This uses the reduce_timer() facility to make the timer expire at the
soonest timed event that needs happening.
(4) When a module is being unloaded, cells and cell managers are now
counted out using dec_after_work() to make sure the module text is
pinned until after the data structures have been cleaned up.
(5) Each cell's VL server list is now protected by a seqlock rather than a
semaphore.

Overhaul permit caching in AFS by making it per-vnode and sharing permit
lists where possible.
When most of the fileserver operations are called, they return a status
structure indicating the (revised) details of the vnode or vnodes involved
in the operation. This includes the access mark derived from the ACL
(named CallerAccess in the protocol definition file). This is cacheable
and if the ACL changes, the server will tell us that it is breaking the
callback promise, at which point we can discard the currently cached
permits.
With this patch, the afs_permits structure has, at the end, an array of
{ key, CallerAccess } elements, sorted by key pointer. This is then cached
in a hash table so that it can be shared between vnodes with the same
access permits.
Permit lists can only be shared if they contain the exact same set of
key->CallerAccess mappings.
Note that that table is global rather than being per-net_ns. If the keys
in a permit list cross net_ns boundaries, there is no problem sharing the
cached permits, since the permits are just integer masks.
Since permit lists pin keys, the permit cache also makes it easier for a
future patch to find all occurrences of a key and remove them by means of
setting the afs_permits::invalidated flag and then clearing the appropriate
key pointer. In such an event, memory barriers will need adding.
Lastly, the permit caching is skipped if the server has sent either a
vnode-specific or an entire-server callback since the start of the
operation.

Overhaul the AFS callback handling by the following means:
(1) Don't give up callback promises on vnodes that we are no longer using,
rather let them just expire on the server or let the server break
them. This is actually more efficient for the server as the callback
lookup is expensive if there are lots of extant callbacks.
(2) Only give up the callback promises we have from a server when the
server record is destroyed. Then we can just give up *all* the
callback promises on it in one go.
(3) Servers can end up being shared between cells if cells are aliased, so
don't add all the vnodes being backed by a particular server into a
big FID-indexed tree on that server as there may be duplicates.
Instead have each volume instance (~= superblock) register an interest
in a server as it starts to make use of it and use this to allow the
processor for callbacks from the server to find the superblock and
thence the inode corresponding to the FID being broken by means of
ilookup_nowait().
(4) Rather than iterating over the entire callback list when a mass-break
comes in from the server, maintain a counter of mass-breaks in
afs_server (cb_seq) and make afs_validate() check it against the copy
in afs_vnode.
It would be nice not to have to take a read_lock whilst doing this,
but that's tricky without using RCU.
(5) Save a ref on the fileserver we're using for a call in the afs_call
struct so that we can access its cb_s_break during call decoding.
(6) Write-lock around callback and status storage in a vnode and read-lock
around getattr so that we don't see the status mid-update.
This has the following consequences:
(1) Data invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate() on a
vnode. Unfortunately, we need to use a key to query the server, but
getting one from a background thread is tricky without caching loads
of keys all over the place.
(2) Mass invalidation isn't seen until someone calls afs_validate().
(3) Callback breaking is going to hit the inode_hash_lock quite a bit.
Could this be replaced with rcu_read_lock() since inodes are destroyed
under RCU conditions.

Lay the groundwork for supporting network namespaces (netns) to the AFS
filesystem by moving various global features to a network-namespace struct
(afs_net) and providing an instance of this as a temporary global variable
that everything uses via accessor functions for the moment.
The following changes have been made:
(1) Store the netns in the superblock info. This will be obtained from
the mounter's nsproxy on a manual mount and inherited from the parent
superblock on an automount.
(2) The cell list is made per-netns. It can be viewed through
/proc/net/afs/cells and also be modified by writing commands to that
file.
(3) The local workstation cell is set per-ns in /proc/net/afs/rootcell.
This is unset by default.
(4) The 'rootcell' module parameter, which sets a cell and VL server list
modifies the init net namespace, thereby allowing an AFS root fs to be
theoretically used.
(5) The volume location lists and the file lock manager are made
per-netns.
(6) The AF_RXRPC socket and associated I/O bits are made per-ns.
The various workqueues remain global for the moment.
Changes still to be made:
(1) /proc/fs/afs/ should be moved to /proc/net/afs/ and a symlink emplaced
from the old name.
(2) A per-netns subsys needs to be registered for AFS into which it can
store its per-netns data.
(3) Rather than the AF_RXRPC socket being opened on module init, it needs
to be opened on the creation of a superblock in that netns.
(4) The socket needs to be closed when the last superblock using it is
destroyed and all outstanding client calls on it have been completed.
This prevents a reference loop on the namespace.
(5) It is possible that several namespaces will want to use AFS, in which
case each one will need its own UDP port. These can either be set
through /proc/net/afs/cm_port or the kernel can pick one at random.
The init_ns gets 7001 by default.
Other issues that need resolving:
(1) The DNS keyring needs net-namespacing.
(2) Where do upcalls go (eg. DNS request-key upcall)?
(3) Need something like open_socket_in_file_ns() syscall so that AFS
command line tools attempting to operate on an AFS file/volume have
their RPC calls go to the right place.

net: improve the process of redirect and toobig for ipv6 tunnels
Now let's say there are 3 kinds of icmp packets to process for tunnels,
toobig(needfrag), redirect, others, their process should be:
- toobig(needfrag)
update the lower dst's pmtu by route cache, also update sk dst's pmtu
if possible, or it will be fine if sk dst pmtu will get updated on tx
path.
- redirect
update the lower dst's gw by route cache and return, no need to send
this redirect packet to user sk.
- others
send the packet to user's sk, or it will also be fine to use err_count
to count it and report fail link on tx path.
All ipv4 tunnels basically follow this while some of ipv6 tunnels are
doing in different ways, like ip6gre and ip6_tunnels update tnl dev's
mtu instead of updating lower dst pmtu, no redirect process on their
err_handlers, which doesn't make any sense and even causes performance
problems.
This patchset is to improve the process of redirect and toobig for ip6gre
ip4ip6, ip6ip6 tunnels, as in ipv4 tunnels.

Now ip6gre processes toobig icmp packet by setting gre dev's mtu in
ip6gre_err, which would cause few things not good:
- It couldn't set mtu with dev_set_mtu due to it's not in user context,
which causes route cache and idev->cnf.mtu6 not to be updated.
- It has to update sk dst pmtu in tx path according to gredev->mtu for
ip6gre, while it updates pmtu again according to lower dst pmtu in
ip6_tnl_xmit.
- To change dev->mtu by toobig icmp packet is not a good idea, it should
only work on pmtu.
This patch is to process toobig by updating the lower dst's pmtu, as later
sk dst pmtu will be updated in ip6_tnl_xmit, the same way as in ip4gre.
Note that gre dev's mtu will not be updated any more, it doesn't make any

In xmit process, the variables are set many times. In fact,
it is enough for these variables to be set once.
After a long time test, the throughput performance is better
than before.

====================
Openvswitch meter action
This patch series is the first attempt to add openvswitch
meter support. We have previously experimented with adding
metering support in nftables. However 1) It was not clear
how to expose a named nftables object cleanly, and 2)
the logic that implements metering is quite small, < 100 lines
of code.
With those two observations, it seems cleaner to add meter
support in the openvswitch module directly.

OVS kernel datapath so far does not support Openflow meter action.
This is the first stab at adding kernel datapath meter support.
This implementation supports only drop band type.

net: dsa: b53: Support prepended Broadcom tags
This patch series adds support for prepended 4-bytes Broadcom tags that we
already support. This type of tag will typically be used when interfaced to
a SoC like BCM58xx (NorthStar Plus) which supports a Flow Accelerator (WIP).
In that case, we need to support a slightly different tagging format.
The first patch does a bit of re-factoring and passes a port index to
the get_tag_protocol() function since at least two different drivers need
that type of information (mt7530, b53) to support tagging or not.
