vlan_device_event() generates nested UP/DOWN, MTU and feature
change events. It executes an event for the VLAN device directly
from the notifier - while the locks of the lower device are held.
This causes deadlocks, for example:
bond (3) bond_update_speed_duplex(vlan)
| ^ v
vlan (2) UP(vlan) (4) vlan_ethtool_get_link_ksettings()
| ^ v
dummy (1) UP(dummy) (5) __ethtool_get_link_ksettings()
The dummy device is ops locked, vlan creates a nested event (2),
then bond wants to ask vlan for link state (3). bond uses the
"I'm already holding the instance lock" flavor of API. But in
this case the lock held refers to vlan itself. We hit vlan's
link settings trampoline (4) and call __ethtool_get_link_ksettings()
which tries to lock dummy. Deadlock. There's no clean way for us
to tell the vlan_ethtool_get_link_ksettings() that the caller
is already in lower device's critical section.
Defer the propagation to the per-netdev work facility instead:
the notifier only schedules netdev_work_sched(vlandev, VLAN_WORK_*),
and ndo_work (vlan_dev_work) applies the change later. Hopefully
nobody expects the VLAN state changes to be instantaneous.
If someone does expect the changes to be instantaneous we will
have to do the same thing Stan did for rx_mode and "strategically"
place sync calls, to make sure such delayed works are executed
after we drop the ops lock but before we drop rtnl_lock.
Stan suggests that if we need that down the line we may
consider reshaping the mechanism into "async notifications".
AFAICT only vlan does this sort of netdev open chaining,
so as a first try I think that sticking the complexity into
the vlan code makes sense.
One corner case is that we need to cancel the event if user
explicitly changes the state before work could run. Consider
the following operations with vlan0 on top of dummy0:
ip link set dev dummy0 up # queues work to up vlan0
ip link set dev vlan0 down # user explicitly downs the vlan
ndo_work # acts on the stale event

The rx_mode update runs from a workqueue: drivers have their
ndo_set_rx_mode_async() callback executed by a single global
work item under RTNL and ops lock. This is a useful pattern.
Support multiple "events" that need to be serviced and make RX_MODE
sync the first one. Call the events "core" because later on
we will let drivers define and schedule their own.

Syzbot reported a KASAN slab-use-after-free in fib_rules_lookup().
The root cause is a race condition where packets can escape the backlog
flushing during device unregistration (e.g., during netns exit).
Commit e9e4dd3267d0 ("net: do not process device backlog during unregistration")
introduced a lockless netif_running() check in enqueue_to_backlog() to
prevent queuing packets to an unregistering device.
However, this creates a TOCTOU race window.
A lockless transmitter (like veth_xmit) can pass
the check before dev_close() clears IFF_UP. If the transmitter is then
delayed, flush_all_backlogs() can run and finish before the transmitter
grabs the backlog lock and queues the packet. The packet then escapes
the flush and triggers UAF later when processed.
Fix this by moving the netif_running() check inside the backlog lock.
This serializes the check with the flush work (which also grabs the lock).
We then either queue the packet before the flush runs (so it gets flushed),
or check netif_running() after the flush/close completes (so it gets dropped).

Blamed commit converted the untracked dev_hold()/dev_put() calls
in the watchdog code to use the tracked dev_hold_track()/dev_put_track()
(which were later renamed/interfaced to netdev_hold() and netdev_put()).
By introducing dev->watchdog_dev_tracker to store the
reference tracking information without adding synchronization
between netdev_watchdog_up() and dev_watchdog(), it enabled the
race condition where this pointer could be overwritten or freed
concurrently, leading to the list corruption crash syzbot reported:

This patch has three coordinated parts:
1) Add dev->watchdog_lock and dev->watchdog_ref_held to serialize watchdog operations.
2) Remove netdev_watchdog_up() call from netif_carrier_on():
This ensures netdev_watchdog_up() is only called from process/BH context
(via linkwatch workqueue dev_activate()), allowing us to use
spin_lock_bh() for synchronization.
3) Synchronize watchdog up and watchdog timer:
Protect netdev_watchdog_up() with tx_global_lock and watchdog_lock.
Only allocate a new tracker in netdev_watchdog_up() if one is
not already present.
In dev_watchdog(), ensure we don't release the tracker if the
timer was rescheduled either by dev_watchdog() itself or concurrently
by netdev_watchdog_up().

When ndo_set_rx_mode_async returns an error, schedule a retry with
exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s -- 15s total). Give up after the
4th retry and log an error via netdev_err().
This moves retry logic from individual drivers into the core stack.
Timer callback does not hold a ref on dev. Safe because the timer can
only be armed when dev is IFF_UP, and __dev_close_many runs
timer_delete_sync before clearing IFF_UP. Unregister always closes
IFF_UP devices first, so by the time dev can be freed the timer is
dead and cannot be re-armed.

Jakub suggests renaming the existing assert to match
the netdev_lock_ops_compat() semantics.
We want netdev_assert_locked_ops() to mean - if the driver
is ops locked - check that it's holding the device lock.
The existing helper check for either ops lock or rtnl_lock,
which is the locking behavior of netdev_lock_ops_compat().
The reason for naming divergence is likely that
netdev_ops_assert_locked() predated the _compat() helpers.

In the following patch, we want to call rtnl_fill_prop_list() without
RTNL being held, but after a device reference was taken.
We need to free altnames in netdev_run_todo() instead of
unregister_netdevice_many_notify().
Freeing will only happen once all device references
have been released.
Note that dev->name_node serves as the anchor for altnames,
thus must be also freed in netdev_run_todo().

Skip the extra call to napi->poll(), if the gro timer is armed at the
end of busy polling. This removes the need for having a separate
__busy_poll_stop() routine and its code is moved directly into the
relevant places in busy_poll_stop(). Remove obsolete comment about
ndo_busy_poll_stop().
This is a follow-up to commit 58e2330bd455 ("net: napi: Avoid gro timer
misfiring at end of busypoll"), which has deferred arming the gro timer
to the end of __busy_poll_stop() to eliminate a race condition between
a short timer and long poll that could leave the queue stuck with
interrupts disabled and no timer armed.

When a netkit virtual device leases queues from a physical NIC, devmem
TX bindings created on the netkit device must still result in the dmabuf
being mapped for dma by the physical device. This patch accomplishes
this by teaching the bind handler to search for the underlying
DMA-capable device by looking it up via leased rx queues. The function
netdev_find_netmem_tx_dev(), used for finding the underlying DMA-capable
device, can be extended to support other non-netkit NETMEM_TX_NO_DMA
devices in the future if needed.
Additionally, this patch extends validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() to
support the netkit case, where the skb is validated twice: once on the
netkit guest device and again on the physical NIC after BPF redirect or
ip forwarding.

Devices that support netmem TX previously set dev->netmem_tx = true.
This was checked in validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() to drop unreadable
skbs (skbs with dmabuf-backed frags) before they reach drivers that
would mishandle them or devices that would not have the iommu mappings
for them.
A subsequent patch will introduce a third state for virtual devices
that forward unreadable skbs without ever performing DMA on them. To
prepare for that, convert the boolean dev->netmem_tx into an enum:
NETMEM_TX_NONE - no netmem TX support (drop unreadable skbs)
NETMEM_TX_DMA - full support, device does DMA
Update the existing NIC drivers (bnxt, gve, mlx5, fbnic) and the
validators in net/core to use the new enum. No functional change.

The protodown functionality allows user space to turn off the carrier of
a net device:
# ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
# ip link add name macvlan1 up link dummy1 type macvlan mode bridge
# ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on
$ ip -br link show dev macvlan1
macvlan1@dummy1 DOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
When protodown is turned off, the core unconditionally turns on the
carrier of the net device:
# ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off
$ ip -br link show dev macvlan1
macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
This is wrong as it means that a macvlan can end up with a carrier when
its lower device does not have a carrier:
# ip link set dev dummy1 carrier off
$ ip -br link show dev macvlan1
macvlan1@dummy1 LOWERLAYERDOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>
# ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown on
# ip link set dev macvlan1 protodown off
$ ip -br link show dev macvlan1
macvlan1@dummy1 UP 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP>
Solve this by resolving the linked net device and if one exists, inherit
its carrier state when protodown is turned off. Otherwise, if no linked
net device exists, as before, simply turn on the carrier.
Resolve the linked net device using a new helper and have it return the
device itself (in a similar fashion to dev_get_iflink()) if the device
does not implement both ndo_get_iflink() and get_link_net(). If the
latter is not implemented, it is unclear in which network namespace we
should look up the linked net device. Currently, this helper is only
used for net devices that support protodown (macvlan and vxlan) and for
both it returns the correct result.
Output with the patch:
# ip link add name dummy1 up type dummy
# ip link add name macvlan1 up link dummy1 type macvlan mode bridge
# ip link set dev dummy1 carrier off
$ ip -br link show dev macvlan1
macvlan1@dummy1 LOWERLAYERDOWN 0a:5c:a3:05:c7:86 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP>

A subsequent patch will make netif_carrier_on() a NOP for net devices
that have protodown turned on so that they will not accidentally gain
carrier. As a preparation, set dev->proto_down before calling
netif_carrier_{off,on}().
Note that the only driver that supports protodown and has a notion of a
carrier is macvlan and it is calling netif_carrier_{off,on}() with RTNL
held.

When in irq deferral mode (defer-hard-irqs > 0), a short enough
gro-flush timeout can trigger before NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared if the
last poll in busy_poll_stop() takes too long. This can have the effect
of leaving the queue stuck with interrupts disabled and no timer armed
which results in a tx timeout if there is no subsequent busypoll cycle.
To prevent this, defer the gro-flush timer arm after the last poll.

"Delete some obsolete networking code
Old code like amateur radio and NFC have long been a burden to core
networking developers. syzbot loves to find bugs in BKL-era code, and
noobs try to fix them.
If we want to have a fighting chance of surviving the LLM-pocalypse
this code needs to find a dedicated owner or get deleted. We've talked
about these deletions multiple times in the past and every time
someone wanted the code to stay. It is never very clear to me how many
of those people actually use the code vs are just nostalgic to see it
go. Amateur radio did have occasional users (or so I think) but most
users switched to user space implementations since its all super slow
stuff. Nobody stepped up to maintain the kernel code.
We were lucky enough to find someone who wants to help with NFC so
we're giving that a chance. Let's try to put the rest of this code

Now that all in-tree ops-locked drivers have been converted to
ndo_set_rx_mode_async, add a warning in register_netdevice to catch
any remaining or newly added drivers that use ndo_set_rx_mode with
ops locking. This ensures future driver authors are guided toward
the async path.
Also route ops-locked devices through netdev_rx_mode_work even if they
lack rx_mode NDOs, to ensure netdev_ops_assert_locked() does not fire
on the legacy path where only RTNL is held.

under netdev_ops_lock instead of under the addr_lock spinlock. This
is required because __dev_set_promiscuity calls dev_change_rx_flags
and __dev_notify_flags, both of which may need to sleep.
Change ASSERT_RTNL() to netdev_ops_assert_locked() in
__dev_set_promiscuity, netif_set_allmulti and __dev_change_flags
since these are now called from the work queue under the ops lock.

Add a per-device netdev_hw_addr_list cache (rx_mode_addr_cache) that
allows __hw_addr_list_snapshot() and __hw_addr_list_reconcile() to
reuse previously allocated entries instead of hitting GFP_ATOMIC on
every snapshot cycle.
snapshot pops entries from the cache when available, falling back to
__hw_addr_create(). reconcile splices both snapshot lists back into
the cache via __hw_addr_splice(). The cache is flushed in
free_netdev().

Add ndo_set_rx_mode_async callback that drivers can implement instead
of the legacy ndo_set_rx_mode. The legacy callback runs under the
netif_addr_lock spinlock with BHs disabled, preventing drivers from
sleeping. The async variant runs from a work queue with rtnl_lock and
netdev_lock_ops held, in fully sleepable context.
When __dev_set_rx_mode() sees ndo_set_rx_mode_async, it schedules
netdev_rx_mode_work instead of calling the driver inline. The work
function takes two snapshots of each address list (uc/mc) under
the addr_lock, then drops the lock and calls the driver with the
work copies. After the driver returns, it reconciles the snapshots
back to the real lists under the lock.
Add netif_rx_mode_sync() to opportunistically execute the pending
workqueue update inline, so that rx mode changes are committed
before returning to userspace:
- dev_change_flags (SIOCSIFFLAGS / RTM_NEWLINK)
- dev_set_promiscuity
- dev_set_allmulti
- dev_ifsioc SIOCADDMULTI / SIOCDELMULTI
- do_setlink (RTM_SETLINK)
Note that some deep hierarchies still do skip the lower updates via:
- dev_uc_sync
- dev_mc_sync
If we do end up hitting user-visible issues, we can add more calls to
netif_rx_mode_sync in specific places. But hopefully we should not,
the actual user-visible lists are still synced, it's that just HW state
that might be lagging.

dev_put() releases a reference which didn't have a tracker.
References without a tracker are accounted in the tracking
code as "no_tracker". We can't free the tracker and then
call dev_put(). The references themselves will be fine
but the tracking code will think it's a double-release:
refcount_t: decrement hit 0; leaking memory.
IOW commit under fixes confused dev_put() (release never tracked
reference) with __dev_put() (just release the reference, skipping
the reference tracking infra).
Since __netdev_put_lock() uses dev_put() we can't feed a previously
tracked netdev ref into it. Let's flip things around.
netdev_put(dev, NULL) is the same as dev_put(dev) so make
netdev_put_lock() the real function and have __netdev_put_lock()
feed it a NULL tracker for all the cases that were untracked.

Add a netdevice notifier in netkit to watch for NETDEV_UNREGISTER events.
If the target device is indeed NETREG_UNREGISTERING and previously leased
a queue to a netkit device, then collect the related netkit devices and
batch-unregister_netdevice_many() them.
If this were not done, then the netkit device would hold a reference on
the physical device preventing it from going away. However, in case of
both io_uring zero-copy as well as AF_XDP this situation is handled
gracefully and the allocated resources are torn down.
In the case where mentioned infra is used through netkit, the applications
have a reference on netkit, and netkit in turn holds a reference on the
physical device. In order to have netkit release the reference on the
physical device, we need such watcher to then unregister the netkit ones.
This is generally quite similar to the dependency handling in case of
tunnels (e.g. vxlan bound to a underlying netdev) where the tunnel device
gets removed along with the physical device.

When a process in a container wants to setup a memory provider, it will
use the virtual netdev and a leased rxq, and call netif_mp_{open,close}_rxq
to try and restart the queue. At this point, proxy the queue restart on
the real rxq in the physical netdev.
For memory providers (io_uring zero-copy rx and devmem), it causes the
real rxq in the physical netdev to be filled from a memory provider that
has DMA mapped memory from a process within a container.

Most ndo_start_xmit() methods expects headers of gso packets
to be already in skb->head.
net/core/tso.c users are particularly at risk, because tso_build_hdr()
does a memcpy(hdr, skb->data, hdr_len);
qdisc_pkt_len_segs_init() already does a dissection of gso packets.
Use pskb_may_pull() instead of skb_header_pointer() to make
sure drivers do not have to reimplement this.
Some malicious packets could be fed, detect them so that we can
drop them sooner with a new SKB_DROP_REASON_SKB_BAD_GSO drop_reason.

Syzbot reported a KMSAN uninit-value warning in gso_features_check()
called from netif_skb_features() [1].
gso_features_check() reads iph->frag_off to decide whether to clear
mangleid_features. Accessing the IPv4 header via ip_hdr()/inner_ip_hdr()
can rely on skb header offsets that are not always safe for direct
dereference on packets injected from PF_PACKET paths.
Use skb_header_pointer() for the TCPv4 frag_off check so the header read
is robust whether data is already linear or needs copying.

NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM only advertises support for checksum offload of
packets without IPv6 extension headers. Packets with extension
headers must fall back onto software checksumming. Since TSO
depends on checksum offload, those must revert to GSO.
The below commit introduces that fallback. It always checks
network header length. For tunneled packets, the inner header length
must be checked instead. Extend the check accordingly.
A special case is tunneled packets without inner IP protocol. Such as
RFC 6951 SCTP in UDP. Those are not standard IPv6 followed by
transport header either, so also must revert to the software GSO path.

dev_open() already is exported, but drivers which use the netdev
instance lock need to use netif_open() instead. netif_close() is
also already exported [1] so this completes the pairing.
This export is required for the following fbnic self tests to
avoid calling ndo_stop() and ndo_open() in favor of the
more appropriate netif_open() and netif_close() that notifies
any listeners that the interface went down to test and is now
coming back up.

Following typical script is extremely disruptive,
because each graft operation calls dev_deactivate()
which resets all the queues of the device.
QPARAM="limit 100000 flow_limit 1000 buckets 4096"
TXQS=64
for ETH in eth1
do
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
for i in `seq 1 $TXQS`
do
slot=$( printf %x $(( i )) )
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$slot fq $QPARAM
done
done
One can add "ip link set dev $ETH down/up" to reduce the disruption time:
QPARAM="limit 100000 flow_limit 1000 buckets 4096"
TXQS=64
for ETH in eth1
do
ip link set dev $ETH down
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
for i in `seq 1 $TXQS`
do
slot=$( printf %x $(( i )) )
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$slot fq $QPARAM
done
ip link set dev $ETH up
done
Or we can add a @reset_needed flag to dev_deactivate() and
dev_deactivate_many().
This flag is set to true at device dismantle or linkwatch_do_dev(),
and to false for graft operations.
In the future, we might only stop one queue instead of the whole
device, ie call dev_deactivate_queue() instead of dev_deactivate().
I think the problem (quadratic behavior) was added in commit
2fb541c862c9 ("net: sch_generic: aviod concurrent reset and enqueue op
for lockless qdisc") but this does not look serious enough to deserve
risky backports.

After acquiring netdev_queue::_xmit_lock the number of the CPU owning
the lock is recorded in netdev_queue::xmit_lock_owner. This works as
long as the BH context is not preemptible.
On PREEMPT_RT the softirq context is preemptible and without the
softirq-lock it is possible to have multiple user in __dev_queue_xmit()
submitting a skb on the same CPU. This is fine in general but this means
also that the current CPU is recorded as netdev_queue::xmit_lock_owner.
This in turn leads to the recursion alert and the skb is dropped.
Instead checking the for CPU number, that owns the lock, PREEMPT_RT can
check if the lockowner matches the current task.
Add netif_tx_owned() which returns true if the current context owns the
lock by comparing the provided CPU number with the recorded number. This
resembles the current check by negating the condition (the current check
returns true if the lock is not owned).
On PREEMPT_RT use rt_mutex_owner() to return the lock owner and compare
the current task against it.
Use the new helper in __dev_queue_xmit() and netif_local_xmit_active()
which provides a similar check.

binding->dev is protected on the write-side in
mp_dmabuf_devmem_uninstall() against concurrent writes, but due to the
concurrent bare reads in net_devmem_get_binding() and
validate_xmit_unreadable_skb() it should be wrapped in a
READ_ONCE/WRITE_ONCE pair to make sure no compiler optimizations play
with the underlying register in unforeseen ways.
Doesn't present a critical bug because the known compiler optimizations
don't result in bad behavior. There is no tearing on u64, and load
omissions/invented loads would only break if additional binding->dev
references were inlined together (they aren't right now).
This just more strictly follows the linux memory model (i.e.,

Since XDP programs are called from a NAPI poll context, the RCU
reference liveness is ensured by local_bh_disable().
Commit aeea1b86f936 ("bpf, devmap: Exclude XDP broadcast to master
device") started to call netdev_upper_get_next_dev_rcu() from this
context, but missed adding rcu_read_lock_bh_held() as a condition to the
RCU checks.
While both bh_disabled and rcu_read_lock() provide RCU protection,
lockdep complains since the check condition is insufficient [1].
Add rcu_read_lock_bh_held() as condition to help lockdep to understand
the dereference is safe, in the same way as commit 694cea395fde ("bpf:
Allow RCU-protected lookups to happen from bh context").

I was debugging a NIC driver when I noticed that when I enable
threaded busypoll, bpftrace hangs when starting up. dmesg showed:
rcu_tasks_wait_gp: rcu_tasks grace period number 85 (since boot) is 10658 jiffies old.
rcu_tasks_wait_gp: rcu_tasks grace period number 85 (since boot) is 40793 jiffies old.

The cause is that in threaded busypoll, the main loop is in
napi_threaded_poll rather than napi_threaded_poll_loop, where the
latter rarely iterates more than once within its loop. For
rcu_softirq_qs_periodic inside napi_threaded_poll_loop to report its
qs state, the last_qs must be 100ms behind, and this can't happen
because napi_threaded_poll_loop rarely iterates in threaded busypoll,
and each time napi_threaded_poll_loop is called last_qs is reset to
latest jiffies.
This patch changes so that in threaded busypoll, last_qs is saved
in the outer napi_threaded_poll, and whether busy_poll_last_qs
is NULL indicates whether napi_threaded_poll_loop is called for
busypoll. This way last_qs would not reset to latest jiffies on
each invocation of napi_threaded_poll_loop.

Create new enum qdisc_drop_reason and trace_qdisc_drop tracepoint
for qdisc layer drop diagnostics with direct qdisc context visibility.
The new tracepoint includes qdisc handle, parent, kind (name), and
device information. Existing SKB_DROP_REASON_QDISC_DROP is retained
for backwards compatibility via kfree_skb_reason().
Convert qdiscs with drop reasons to use the new infrastructure.
Change CAKE's cobalt_should_drop() return type from enum skb_drop_reason
to enum qdisc_drop_reason to fix implicit enum conversion warnings.
Use QDISC_DROP_UNSPEC as the 'not dropped' sentinel instead of
SKB_NOT_DROPPED_YET. Both have the same compiled value (0), so the
comparison logic remains semantically equivalent.

udpgro_frglist.sh and udpgro_bench.sh are the flakiest tests
currently in NIPA. They fail in the same exact way, TCP GRO
test stalls occasionally and the test gets killed after 10min.
These tests use veth to simulate GRO. They attach a trivial
("return XDP_PASS;") XDP program to the veth to force TSO off
and NAPI on.
Digging into the failure mode we can see that the connection
is completely stuck after a burst of drops. The sender's snd_nxt
is at sequence number N [1], but the receiver claims to have
received (rcv_nxt) up to N + 3 * MSS [2]. Last piece of the puzzle
is that senders rtx queue is not empty (let's say the block in
the rtx queue is at sequence number N - 4 * MSS [3]).
In this state, sender sends a retransmission from the rtx queue
with a single segment, and sequence numbers N-4*MSS:N-3*MSS [3].
Receiver sees it and responds with an ACK all the way up to
N + 3 * MSS [2]. But sender will reject this ack as TCP_ACK_UNSENT_DATA
because it has no recollection of ever sending data that far out [1].
And we are stuck.
The root cause is the mess of the xmit return codes. veth returns
an error when it can't xmit a frame. We end up with a loss event
like this:
-------------------------------------------------
| GSO super frame 1 | GSO super frame 2 |
|-----------------------------------------------|
| seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg | seg |
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
-------------------------------------------------
x ok ok <ok>| ok ok ok <x>
\\
snd_nxt
"x" means packet lost by veth, and "ok" means it went thru.
Since veth has TSO disabled in this test it sees individual segments.
Segment 1 is on the retransmit queue and will be resent.
So why did the sender not advance snd_nxt even tho it clearly did
send up to seg 8? tcp_write_xmit() interprets the return code
from the core to mean that data has not been sent at all. Since
TCP deals with GSO super frames, not individual segment the crux
of the problem is that loss of a single segment can be interpreted
as loss of all. TCP only sees the last return code for the last
segment of the GSO frame (in <> brackets in the diagram above).
Of course for the problem to occur we need a setup or a device
without a Qdisc. Otherwise Qdisc layer disconnects the protocol
layer from the device errors completely.
We have multiple ways to fix this.
1) make veth not return an error when it lost a packet.
While this is what I think we did in the past, the issue keeps
reappearing and it's annoying to debug. The game of whack
a mole is not great.
2) fix the damn return codes
We only talk about NETDEV_TX_OK and NETDEV_TX_BUSY in the
documentation, so maybe we should make the return code from
ndo_start_xmit() a boolean. I like that the most, but perhaps
some ancient, not-really-networking protocol would suffer.
3) make TCP ignore the errors
It is not entirely clear to me what benefit TCP gets from
interpreting the result of ip_queue_xmit()? Specifically once
the connection is established and we're pushing data - packet
loss is just packet loss?
4) this fix
Ignore the rc in the Qdisc-less+GSO case, since it's unreliable.
We already always return OK in the TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS case.
In the Qdisc-less case let's be a bit more conservative and only
mask the GSO errors. This path is taken by non-IP-"networks"
like CAN, MCTP etc, so we could regress some ancient thing.
This is the simplest, but also maybe the hackiest fix?
Similar fix has been proposed by Eric in the past but never committed
because original reporter was working with an OOT driver and wasn't
providing feedback (see Link).

Blamed commit made the assumption that the RPS table for each receive
queue would have the same size, and that it would not change.
Compute flow_id in set_rps_cpu(), do not assume we can use the value
computed by get_rps_cpu(). Otherwise we risk out-of-bound access
and/or crashes.

This converts some of the visually simpler cases that have been split
over multiple lines. I only did the ones that are easy to verify the
resulting diff by having just that final GFP_KERNEL argument on the next
line.
Somebody should probably do a proper coccinelle script for this, but for
me the trivial script actually resulted in an assertion failure in the
middle of the script. I probably had made it a bit _too_ trivial.
So after fighting that far a while I decided to just do some of the
syntactically simpler cases with variations of the previous 'sed'
scripts.
The more syntactically complex multi-line cases would mostly really want
whitespace cleanup anyway.
