After doing down/uninit/init/up in hclge_dcb, it is not necessary
to call dcb_ops->map_update in enet, so hclge_map_update can be
called directly in hclge_dcb.
This is for preparing to call hns3_nic_set_real_num_queue with
netdev down when user changes mqprio configuration.

When user changes the mqprio configuration, enet need to be
uninited and inited besides down'ed and up'ed, because the queue
num may change when the TC num changes.
Also, it is more suitable to do the down/unint/init/up operation
in hclge module using hclge_notify_client, because this config
change may affect PF and its VF.

Accept MSG_ZEROCOPY in all the TCP states that allow sendmsg. Remove
the explicit check for ESTABLISHED and CLOSE_WAIT states.
This requires correctly handling zerocopy state (uarg, sk_zckey) in
all paths reachable from other TCP states. Such as the EPIPE case
in sk_stream_wait_connect, which a sendmsg() in incorrect state will
now hit. Most paths are already safe.
Only extension needed is for TCP Fastopen active open. This can build
an skb with data in tcp_send_syn_data. Pass the uarg along with other
fastopen state, so that this skb also generates a zerocopy
notification on release.
Tested with active and passive tcp fastopen packetdrill scripts at

r8169: add EEE support for RTL8168g+
This series adds general EEE support to be used with ethtool.
In addition it implements EEE for chip versions from RTL8168g.
The first patch leaves the default chip settings and the
second enables EEE per default. This allows us to revert patch 2
w/o removing EEE support completely if we should face issues with
EEE on particular chip versions.
Unfortunately Realtek decided not to use the standard EEE MMD
registers but to use proprietary registers. Therefore we can't
use phylib functions like phy_ethtool_set_eee and have to
reimplement the functionality.
Tested on a system with RTL8168g (chip version 40).

net: IP defrag: use rbtrees in IPv6 defragmentation
Currently, IPv6 defragmentation code drops non-last fragments that
are smaller than 1280 bytes: see
commit 0ed4229b08c1 ("ipv6: defrag: drop non-last frags smaller than min mtu")
This behavior is not specified in IPv6 RFCs and appears to break compatibility
with some IPv6 implementations, as reported here:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg543846.html
This patchset contains four patches:
- patch 1 moves rbtree-related code from IPv4 to files shared b/w
IPv4/IPv6
- patch 2 changes IPv6 defragmenation code to use rbtrees for defrag
queue
- patch 3 changes nf_conntrack IPv6 defragmentation code to use rbtrees
- patch 4 changes ip_defrag selftest to test changes made in the
previous three patches.
Along the way, the 1280-byte restrictions are removed.
I plan to introduce similar changes to 6lowpan defragmentation code
once I figure out how to test it.

This patch adds several changes to the ip_defrag selftest, to cover
new IPv6 defrag behavior:
- min IPv6 frag size is now 8 instead of 1280
- new test cases to cover IPv6 defragmentation in nf_conntrack_reasm.c
- new "permissive" mode in negative (overlap) tests: netfilter
sometimes drops invalid packets without passing them to IPv6
underneath, and thus defragmentation sometimes succeeds when
it is expected to fail; so the permissive mode does not fail the
test if the correct reassembled datagram is received instead of a
timeout.

For recovery purposes, qeth keeps track of all registered VIDs. Replace
this by using the infrastructure introduced in
commit 9daae9bd47cf ("net: Call add/kill vid ndo on vlan filter feature toggling").
By managing NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_FILTER as a hw_feature,
netdev_update_features() will select it from dev->wanted_features
and replay all of the netdevice's VIDs to its ndo_vlan_rx_add_vid()
callback.
z/VM NICs strictly require VLAN registration, so don't expose it as
hw_feature there but add a little hack in qeth_enable_hw_features()
to make things work regardless.

When a qeth card is offline, it has no connection to the HW. So none of
our control callbacks can run IO against it, and we can only cache the
input (eg a new MAC address) without providing proper feedback to the
caller. In this context, it seems much more reasonable to simply detach
the netdevice and let the kernel reject any interaction with it.
This also makes all sorts of internal state checks and locking obsolete.

commit 4789a2188048 ("s390/qeth: fix race when setting MAC address")
resolved a race where our initial programming of dev_addr into the HW
and a call to ndo_set_mac_address() could run concurrently. In this
case, we could end up getting confused about which address was actually
set in the HW.
The quick fix was to introduce additional locking that blocks any
ndo_set_mac_address() while the device is being set online. But the race
primarily originated from the fact that we first register the netdevice,
and only then program its dev_addr. By re-ordering this sequence,
userspace will only be able to change the MAC address _after_ we have
finished with setting the initial dev_addr.
Still, the same MAC address race can also occur during a subsequent call
to qeth_l2_set_online(). So keep around the locking for now, until a
follow-up patch fully resolves this.

mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats can be called from two threads,
1) ndo_get_stats64
2) get_ethtool_stats
For this reason and to minimize concurrency issue impact on 64bit machines
mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats folds the software stats into a temporary
variable then copies it to the global driver stats, both ethtool and ndo
statistics callbacks will use the global software stats variable to report
whatever stats they need.
Actually ndo_get_stats64 doesn't need to fold the whole software stats
(mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats), all it needs is five counters to fill the
rtnl_link_stats64 relevant stats parameter.
Hence this patch introduces a simpler helper function to fold software
stats for ndo_get_stats64 which will work directly on rtnl_link_stats64
stats parameter and not on the global or even temporary mlx5e_sw_stats
variable.
Since now mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats is not called by ndo_get_stats64 we
can make it static and remove the temp var.
Unlike mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats the new fold stats function doesn't
need to zero out the output statistics parameter since it is already
done by the stack @dev_get_stats().
This patch is fixing stack usage of mlx5e_grp_sw_update_stats on
x86 gcc-4.9 and higher, the concurrency issue between mlx5's
ndo_get_stats64 and get_ethtool_stats is resolved as well.

Currently we have one cpu in XPS cpumask per tx queue, this is good
enough for default configuration where there is a tx queue per cpu.
However, once configuration changes to use less tx queues, part of the
cpus are not XPS-mapped and so the select queue decision falls back to
hash calculation and balancing is not guaranteed.

In the non-linear SKB memory scheme of Striding RQ, a packet header
could cross page boundary. This requires special care in fast path
that costs LoC, additional runtime instructions and branches.
It could happen when the header (up to 256B) does not fit in
a single stride. Avoid this by working with a stride size that fits
the maximum possible header. Stride is increased form 64B to 256B.
Performance:
Tested packet rate for UDP streams, single ring, on ConnectX-5.
Configuration:
Set Striding RQ and LRO ON (to enabled the non-linear SKB scheme).
GRO OFF, early drop by TC rule.
64B: 4x worse memory utilization, no page-crossers headers
- No degradation (5,887,305 pps).
- The reduction in memory utilization is compensated by the saving of

'tcp_bbr-Improving-TCP-BBR-performance-for-WiFi-and-cellular-networks'

====================
tcp_bbr: Improving TCP BBR performance for WiFi and cellular networks
Ack aggregation is quite prevalent with wifi, cellular and cable modem
link tchnologies, ACK decimation in middleboxes, and common offloading
techniques such as TSO and GRO, at end hosts. Previously, BBR was often
cwnd-limited in the presence of severe ACK aggregation, which resulted in
low throughput due to insufficient data in flight.
To achieve good throughput for wifi and other paths with aggregation, this
patch series implements an ACK aggregation estimator for BBR, which
estimates the maximum recent degree of ACK aggregation and adapts cwnd
based on it. The algorithm is further described by the following
presentation:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/101/materials/slides-101-iccrg-an-update-on-bbr-work-at-google-00

modem link technologies, ACK decimation in middleboxes, and LRO and GRO
in receiving hosts. The aggregation can happen in either direction,
data or ACKs, but in either case the aggregation effect is visible
to the sender in the ACK stream.
Previously BBR's sending was often limited by cwnd under severe ACK
aggregation/decimation because BBR sized the cwnd at 2*BDP. If packets
were acked in bursts after long delays (e.g. one ACK acking 5*BDP after
5*RTT), BBR's sending was halted after sending 2*BDP over 2*RTT, leaving
the bottleneck idle for potentially long periods. Note that loss-based
congestion control does not have this issue because when facing
aggregation it continues increasing cwnd after bursts of ACKs, growing
cwnd until the buffer is full.
To achieve good throughput in the presence of aggregation effects, this
algorithm allows the BBR sender to put extra data in flight to keep the
bottleneck utilized during silences in the ACK stream that it has evidence
to suggest were caused by aggregation.
A summary of the algorithm: when a burst of packets are acked by a
stretched ACK or a burst of ACKs or both, BBR first estimates the expected
amount of data that should have been acked, based on its estimated
bandwidth. Then the surplus ("extra_acked") is recorded in a windowed-max
filter to estimate the recent level of observed ACK aggregation. Then cwnd
is increased by the ACK aggregation estimate. The larger cwnd avoids BBR
being cwnd-limited in the face of ACK silences that recent history suggests
were caused by aggregation. As a sanity check, the ACK aggregation degree
is upper-bounded by the cwnd (at the time of measurement) and a global max
of BW * 100ms. The algorithm is further described by the following
presentation:

In our internal testing, we observed a significant increase in BBR
throughput (measured using netperf), in a basic wifi setup.
- Host1 (sender on ethernet) -> AP -> Host2 (receiver on wifi)
- 2.4 GHz -> BBR before: ~73 Mbps; BBR after: ~102 Mbps; CUBIC: ~100 Mbps
- 5.0 GHz -> BBR before: ~362 Mbps; BBR after: ~593 Mbps; CUBIC: ~601 Mbps
Also, this code is running globally on YouTube TCP connections and produced
significant bandwidth increases for YouTube traffic.
This is based on Ian Swett's max_ack_height_ algorithm from the
QUIC BBR implementation.

Because bbr_target_cwnd() is really a general-purpose BBR helper for
computing some volume of inflight data as a function of the estimated
BDP, refactor it into following helper functions:
- bbr_bdp()
- bbr_quantization_budget()
- bbr_inflight()

Few chip versions use the same sequence to adjust 10M and ALDPS, so
let's factor it out. This patch also fixes a (most likely) typo in
rtl8168g_1_hw_phy_config. There bit 8 in reg 0x14 on page 0x0bcc
was set and not cleared. According to the vendor driver this bit
needs to be cleared in all cases.

Chip versions from RTL8168g onward use the same sequence to disable
ALDPS (Advanced Link-Down Power Saving). So let's factor this out.
