When adding a vxlan tc rule, and a neighbour isn't available, we
don't insert any rule to hardware. Once we enable offloading flows
with multiple priorities, a packet that should have matched this rule
will continue in hardware pipeline and might match a wrong one.
This is unlike in tc software path where it will be matched and
forwarded to the vxlan device (which will cause a ARP lookup
eventually) and stop processing further tc filters.
To address that, when when a neighbour isn't available (EAGAIN from
attach_encap), or gets deleted, change the original action to be a
forward to slow path instead. Neighbour update will restore the original
action once the neighbour becomes available. This will be done atomically
so at any given time we will have a the correct match.

When replacing a tc flower rule, flower first requests to add the
new rule (new action), then deletes the old one.
But currently when asked to add a new tc flower flow, we append the
actions (and counters to it).
This can result in a fte with two flow counters or conflicting
actions (drop and encap action) which firmware complains/errs
about and isn't achieving what the user aimed for.
Instead, insert the flow using the new no-append flag which will add a
new HW rule, the old flow and rule will be deleted later by flower

If no-append flag is set, we will add a new FTE, instead of appending
the actions of the inserted rule when the same match already exists.
While here, move the has_flow_tag boolean indicator to be a flag too.

A chain is a group of priorities, so use the fdb parallel
sub namespaces to implement chains, and a flow table for each
priority in them.
Because these namespaces are parallel and in series to the slow path
fdb, the chains aren't connected to one another (but to the slow path),
and one must use a explicit goto action to reach a different chain.
Flow tables for the priorities will be created on demand and destroyed
once not used.
The Firmware has four pools of tables for sizes S/XS/M/L (4k, 64k, 1m, 4m).
We maintain ghost copies of the pools occupancy.
When a new table is to be created, we scan the pools from large to small
and find the 1st table size which can be now created. When a table is
destroyed, we update the relevant pool.
Multi chain/prio isn't enabled yet by this patch, for now all flows
will use the default chain 0, and prio 1.

Towards supporting multi-chains and priorities, split the FDB fast path
to multiple namespaces (sub namespaces), each with multiple priorities.
This patch adds a new flow steering type, FS_TYPE_PRIO_CHAINS, which is
like current FS_TYPE_PRIO, but may contain only namespaces, and those
will be in parallel to one another in terms of managing of the flow
tables connections inside them. Meaning, while searching for the next
or previous flow table to connect for a new table inside such namespace
we skip the parallel namespaces in the same level under the
FS_TYPE_PRIO_CHAINS prio we originated from.
We use this new type for splitting the fast path prio into multiple
parallel namespaces, each containing normal prios.
The prios inside them (and their tables) will be connected to one
another, but not from one parallel namespace to another, instead the
last prio in each namespace will be connected to the next prio in
the containing FDB namespace, which is the slow path prio.

Currently, when a flow rule is created using the FS core layer, the caller
has to pass the entire flow counter object and not just the counter HW
handle (ID). This requires both the FS core and the caller to have
knowledge about the inner implementation of the FS layer flow counters
cache and limits the possible users.
Move to use the counter ID across the place when dealing with flows.
Doing this decoupling, now can we privatize the inner implementation
of the flow counters.

There's no real reason for the e-switch logic to manage the creation of
counters for offloaded flows. The API already has the directive for the
caller to denote they want to attach a counter to the created flow.
As such, we go and move the management of flow counters to the mlx5e
tc offload logic. This also lets us remove an inelegant interface where
the FS layer had to provide a way to retrieve a counter from a flow rule.

Eric reported that syzkaller triggered a splat in tcp_cleanup_ulp()
where assertion sock_owned_by_me() failed. This happened through
inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() first releasing the socket lock,
then calling into tcp_done(newsk) which is called after the
inet_csk_prepare_forced_close() and therefore without the socket
lock held. The sock_owned_by_me() assertion can generally be
removed as the only place where tcp_cleanup_ulp() is called from
now is out of inet_csk_destroy_sock() -> sk->sk_prot->destroy()
where socket is in dead state and unreachable. Therefore, add a
comment why the check is not needed instead.

Align the use of local PTT to propagate through the qed_mcp* API's.
Global ptt should not be used.
Register access should be done through layers. Register address is
mapped into a PTT, PF translation table. Several interface functions
require a PTT to direct read/write into register. There is a pool of
PTT maintained, and several PTT are used simultaneously to access
device registers in different flows. Same PTT should not be used in
flows that can run concurrently.
To avoid running out of PTT resources, too many PTT should not be
acquired without releasing them. Every PF has a global PTT, which is
used throughout the life of PF, in most important flows for register
access. Generic functions acquire the PTT locally and release after
the use. This patch aligns the use of Global PTT and Local PTT
accordingly.

net: Kernel side filtering for route dumps
Implement kernel side filtering of route dumps by protocol (e.g., which
routing daemon installed the route), route type (e.g., unicast), table
id and nexthop device.
iproute2 has been doing this filtering in userspace for years; pushing
the filters to the kernel side reduces the amount of data the kernel
sends and reduces wasted cycles on both sides processing unwanted data.
These initial options provide a huge improvement for efficiently
examining routes on large scale systems.
v2
- better handling of requests for a specific table. Rather than walking
the hash of all tables, lookup the specific table and dump it
- refactor mr_rtm_dumproute moving the loop over the table into a
helper that can be invoked directly
- add hook to return NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED in DONE message to ensure
it is returned even when the dump returns nothing

be used to look up the device index without taking a reference. From

With dump filtering we need a way to ensure the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED
flag is set on a message back to the user if the data returned is
influenced by some input attributes. Normally this can be done as
messages are added to the skb, but if the filter results in no data
being returned, the user could be confused as to why.
This patch adds answer_flags to the netlink_callback allowing dump
handlers to set the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED at a minimum in the
NLMSG_DONE message ensuring the flag gets back to the user.
The netlink_callback space is initialized to 0 via a memset in
__netlink_dump_start, so init of the new answer_flags is covered.

When TCP implements its own pacing (when no fq packet scheduler is used),
it is arming high resolution timer after a packet is sent.
But in many cases (like TCP_RR kind of workloads), this high resolution
timer expires before the application attempts to write the following
packet. This overhead also happens when the flow is ACK clocked and
cwnd limited instead of being limited by the pacing rate.
This leads to extra overhead (high number of IRQ)
Now tcp_wstamp_ns is reserved for the pacing timer only
(after commit "tcp: do not change tcp_wstamp_ns in tcp_mstamp_refresh"),
we can setup the timer only when a packet is about to be sent,
and if tcp_wstamp_ns is in the future.
This leads to a ~10% performance increase in TCP_RR workloads.

being sent without pacing delay.

In commit fefa569a9d4b ("net_sched: sch_fq: account for schedule/timers
drifts") we added a mitigation for scheduling jitter in fq packet scheduler.
This patch does the same in TCP stack, now it is using EDT model.
Note that this mitigation is valid for both external (fq packet scheduler)
or internal TCP pacing.
This uses the same strategy than the above commit, allowing
a time credit of half the packet currently sent.
Consider following case :
An skb is sent, after an idle period of 300 usec.
The air-time (skb->len/pacing_rate) is 500 usec
Instead of setting the pacing timer to now+500 usec,
it will use now+min(500/2, 300) -> now+250usec
This is like having a token bucket with a depth of half
an skb.
Tested:
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root pfifo_fast
Before
netperf -P0 -H remote -- -q 1000000000 # 8000Mbit
540000 262144 262144 10.00 7710.43
After :
netperf -P0 -H remote -- -q 1000000000 # 8000 Mbit
540000 262144 262144 10.00 7999.75 # Much closer to 8000Mbit target
