This patch makes it so that we can support transmit packet steering without
sysfs needing to be enabled. The reason for making this change is to make
it so that a driver can make use of the XPS even while the sysfs portion of
the interface is not present.

This change is meant to address several issues I found within the
netif_set_xps_queues function.
If the allocation of one of the maps to be assigned to new_dev_maps failed
we could end up with the device map in an inconsistent state since we had
already worked through a number of CPUs and removed or added the queue. To
address that I split the process into several steps. The first of which is
just the allocation of updated maps for CPUs that will need larger maps to
store the queue. By doing this we can fail gracefully without actually
altering the contents of the current device map.
The second issue I found was the fact that we were always allocating a new
device map even if we were not adding any queues. I have updated the code
so that we only allocate a new device map if we are adding queues,
otherwise if we are not adding any queues to CPUs we just skip to the
removal process.
The last change I made was to reuse the code from remove_xps_queue to remove
the queue from the CPU. By making this change we can be consistent in how
we go about adding and removing the queues from the CPUs.

This patch does a minor refactor on netif_reset_xps_queue to address a few
items I noticed.
First is the fact that we are doing removal of queues in both
netif_reset_xps_queue and netif_set_xps_queue. Since there is no need to
have the code in two places I am pushing it out into a separate function
and will come back in another patch and reuse the code in
netif_set_xps_queue.
The second item this change addresses is the fact that the Tx queues were
not getting their numa_node value cleared as a part of the XPS queue reset.
This patch resolves that by resetting the numa_node value if the dev_maps
value is set.

This patch adds two functions, netif_reset_xps_queue and
netif_set_xps_queue. The main idea behind these two functions is to
provide a mechanism through which drivers can update their defaults in
regards to XPS.
Currently no such mechanism exists and as a result we cannot use XPS for
things such as ATR which would require a basic configuration to start in
which the Tx queues are mapped to CPUs via a 1:1 mapping. With this change
I am making it possible for drivers such as ixgbe to be able to use the XPS
feature by controlling the default configuration.

This change splits the core bits of netdev_pick_tx into a separate function.
The main idea behind this is to make this code accessible to select queue
functions when they decide to process the standard path instead of their
own custom path in their select queue routine.

One long standing problem with TSO/GSO/GRO packets is that skb->len
doesn't represent a precise amount of bytes on wire.
Headers are only accounted for the first segment.
For TCP, thats typically 66 bytes per 1448 bytes segment missing,
an error of 4.5 % for normal MSS value.
As consequences :
1) TBF/CBQ/HTB/NETEM/... can send more bytes than the assigned limits.
2) Device stats are slightly under estimated as well.
Fix this by taking account of headers in qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len
computation.
Packet schedulers should use qdisc pkt_len instead of skb->len for their
bandwidth limitations, and TSO enabled devices drivers could use pkt_len
if their statistics are not hardware assisted, and if they don't scratch
skb->cb[] first word.
Both egress and ingress paths work, thanks to commit fda55eca5a
(net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()) : If GRO built
a GSO packet, it also set the transport header for us.

Replace ip6_route_lookup() with addrconf_get_prefix_route() when
looking up for a prefix route. This ensures that the connected prefix
is looked up in the main table, and avoids the selection of other
matching routes located in different tables as well as blackhole
or prohibited entries.
In addition, this fixes an Opps introduced by commit 64c6d08e (ipv6:
del unreachable route when an addr is deleted on lo), that would occur
when a blackhole or prohibited entry is selected by ip6_route_lookup().
Such entries have a NULL rt6i_table argument, which is accessed by
__ip6_del_rt() when trying to lock rt6i_table->tb6_lock.
The function addrconf_is_prefix_route() is not used anymore and is
removed.

The tests on the flags in addrconf_get_prefix_route() does no make

must not match with the route flags, so the test must be done

We have skb_mac_header_was_set() helper to tell if mac_header
was set on a skb. We would like the same for transport_header.
__netif_receive_skb() doesn't reset the transport header if already
set by GRO layer.
Note that network stacks usually reset the transport header anyway,
after pulling the network header, so this change only allows
a followup patch to have more precise qdisc pkt_len computation
for GSO packets at ingress side.

If the rpc_task exits while holding the socket write lock before it has
allocated an rpc slot, then the usual mechanism for releasing the write
lock in xprt_release() is defeated.
The problem occurs if the call to xprt_lock_write() initially fails, so
that the rpc_task is put on the xprt->sending wait queue. If the task
exits after being assigned the lock by __xprt_lock_write_func, but
before it has retried the call to xprt_lock_and_alloc_slot(), then
it calls xprt_release() while holding the write lock, but will
immediately exit due to the test for task->tk_rqstp != NULL.

Now that irq sum accounting for /proc/stat's "intr" line works again we
have the oddity that the sum field (first field) contains only the sum
of the second (external irqs) and third field (I/O interrupts).
The reason for that is that these two fields are already sums of all other
fields. So if we would sum up everything we would count every interrupt
twice.
This is broken since the split interrupt accounting was merged two years
ago: 052ff461c8427629aee887ccc27478fc7373237c "[S390] irq: have detailed
statistics for interrupt types".
To fix this remove the split interrupt fields from /proc/stat's "intr"
line again and only have them in /proc/interrupts.
This restores the old behaviour, seems to be the only sane fix and mimics
a behaviour from other architectures where /proc/interrupts also contains
more than /proc/stat's "intr" line does.

Commit 0d0863b02002 ("sctp: Change defaults on cookie hmac selection")
added a "choice" to the sctp Kconfig file. It introduced a bug which
led to an infinite loop when while running "make oldconfig".
The problem is that the wrong symbol was defined as the default value
for the choice. Using the correct value gets rid of the infinite loop.
Note: if CONFIG_SCTP_COOKIE_HMAC_SHA1=y was present in the input

splice() can handle pages of any order, but network code tries hard to
split them in PAGE_SIZE units. Not quite successfully anyway, as
__splice_segment() assumed poff < PAGE_SIZE. This is true for
the skb->data part, not necessarily for the fragments.
This patch removes this logic to give the pages as they are in the skb.

Currently, the size of skb allocated for NDISC is MAX_HEADER +
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) + packet length + dev->needed_tailroom,
but only LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) bytes is "reserved" for headers.
As a result, the skb looks like this (after construction of the
message):
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|<--MAX_HEADER-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
As the name implies, "MAX_HEADER" is used for headers, and should
be "reserved" in prior to packet construction. Or, if some space
is really required at the tail of ther skb, it should be
explicitly documented.
We have several option after construction of NDISC message:
Option 1:
head data tail end
+---------------------------------------------+
+ | | |
+---------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_

+--------------------------------------------------+

=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
Our tunnel drivers try expanding headroom and the space for tunnel
encapsulation was not a mandatory space -- so we are not seeing
bugs here --, but just for optimization for performance critial
situations.
Since NDISC messages are not performance critical unlike TCP,
and as we know outgoing device, LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) should be
just enough for the device in most (if not all) cases:
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) <= LL_MAX_HEADER <= MAX_HEADER
Note that LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) is also enough for NDISC over
SIT (e.g., ISATAP).
So, I think Option 1 is just fine here.

Up to now, the debug and info messages from the ipconfig subsytem
claim to display the IP address of the DHCP/BOOTP server but
display instead the IP address of the bootserver. Fix that.

When using nanosleep() in an userspace application we get a
ratelimit warning
NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
for 10 times.
This patch replaces netif_rx() with netif_rx_ni() which has
to be used from process/softirq context.
The process/softirq context will be called from fakelb driver.
See linux-kernel commit 481a819 for similar fix.

Also, since all users call __vlan_find_dev_deep() with rcu_read_lock,
make no possibility to call this with rtnl mutex held only.

This lists are supposed to serve for storing pointers to all upper devices.
Eventually it will replace dev->master pointer which is used for
bonding, bridge, team but it cannot be used for vlan, macvlan where
there might be multiple upper present. In case the upper link is
replacement for dev->master, it is marked with "master" flag.
New upper device list resolves this limitation. Also, the information
stored in lists is used for preventing looping setups like
"bond->somethingelse->samebond"
