Here we had an overlapping change, where in 'net' the extraneous stats
bump was being removed whilst in 'net-next' the final argument to
udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() was being changed.

Once virtio starts using the DMA API, we won't be able to safely DMA
from the stack. virtio-net does a couple of config DMA requests
from small stack buffers -- switch to using dynamically-allocated
memory.
This should have no effect on any performance-critical code paths.

NAPI drivers no longer need to observe a particular protocol
to benefit from busy polling (CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL=y)
napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() are automatically called
from core networking stack, respectively from
netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del()
This patch depends on free_netdev() and netif_napi_del() being
called from process context, which seems to be the norm.
Drivers might still prefer to call napi_hash_del() on their
own, since they might combine all the rcu grace periods into
a single one, knowing their NAPI structures lifetime, while
core networking stack has no idea of a possible combining.
Once this patch proves to not bring serious regressions,
we will cleanup drivers to either remove napi_hash_del()
or provide appropriate rcu grace periods combining.

We would like to automatically provide busy polling support
to all NAPI drivers, without them having to implement anything.
skb_mark_napi_id() can be called from napi_gro_receive() and
napi_get_frags().
Few drivers are still calling skb_mark_napi_id() because
they use netif_receive_skb(). They should eventually call
napi_gro_receive() instead. I will leave this to drivers
maintainers.

Usually an skb does not have up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags. So no need to
initialize the unuse part of sg. This patch initialize the sg based on
the real number it will used:
- during xmit, it could be inferred from nr_frags and can_push.
- for small receive buffer, it will also be 2.

Instead of using the out-of-line EWMA calculation, use DECLARE_EWMA()
to create static inlines. On x86/64 this results in no change in code
size for me, but reduces the struct receive_queue size by the two
unsigned long values that store the parameters.

virtio declares support for NETIF_F_FRAGLIST, but assumes
that there are at most MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 2 fragments which isn't
always true with a fraglist.
A longer fraglist in the skb will make the call to skb_to_sgvec overflow
the sg array, leading to memory corruption.
Drop NETIF_F_FRAGLIST so we only get what we can handle.

Straightforward patch to add GRO processing to virtio_net.
napi_complete_done() usage allows more aggressive aggregation,
opted-in by setting /sys/class/net/xxx/gro_flush_timeout
Tested:
Setting /sys/class/net/xxx/gro_flush_timeout to 1000 nsec,
Rick Jones reported following results.
One VM of each on a pair of OpenStack compute nodes with E5-2650Lv3 CPUs
and Intel 82599ES-based NICs. So, two "before" and two "after" VMs.
The OpenStack compute nodes were running OpenStack Kilo, with VxLAN
encapsulation being used through OVS so no GRO coming-up the host
stack. The compute nodes themselves were running a 3.14-based kernel.
Single-stream netperf, CPU utilizations and thus service demands are
based on intra-guest reported CPU.

There's no need to do header check for virtio-net since:
- Host sets dodgy for all gso packets from guest and check the header.
- Host should be prepared for all kinds of evil packets from guest, since
malicious guest can send any kinds of packet.
So this patch sets NETIF_F_GSO_ROBUST for virtio-net to skip the check.

The commit d75b1ade567ffab085e8adbbdacf0092d10cd09c (net: less
interrupt masking in NAPI) breaks virtio_net in an insidious way.
It is now required that if the entire budget is consumed when poll
returns, the napi poll_list must remain empty. However, like some
other drivers virtio_net tries to do a last-ditch check and if
there is more work it will call napi_schedule and then immediately
process some of this new work. Should the entire budget be consumed
while processing such new work then we will violate the new caller
contract.
This patch fixes this by not touching any work when we reschedule
in virtio_net.
The worst part of this bug is that the list corruption causes other
napi users to be moved off-list. In my case I was chasing a stall
in IPsec (IPsec uses netif_rx) and I only belatedly realised that it
was virtio_net which caused the stall even though the virtio_net
poll was still functioning perfectly after IPsec stalled.

IPv6 does not allow fragmentation by routers, so there is no
fragmentation ID in the fixed header. UFO for IPv6 requires the ID to
be passed separately, but there is no provision for this in the virtio
net protocol.
Until recently our software implementation of UFO/IPv6 generated a new
ID, but this was a bug. Now we will use ID=0 for any UFO/IPv6 packet
passed through a tap, which is even worse.
Unfortunately there is no distinction between UFO/IPv4 and v6
features, so disable UFO on taps and virtio_net completely until we
have a proper solution.
We cannot depend on VM managers respecting the tap feature flags, so
keep accepting UFO packets but log a warning the first time we do
this.

As reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer, for high packet rates the
overhead of having another indirect call in the TX path is
non-trivial.
There is the indirect call itself, and then there is all of the
reloading of the state to refetch the tail pointer value and
then write the device register.
Move to a more passive scheme, which requires very light modifications
to the device drivers.
The signal is a new skb->xmit_more value, if it is non-zero it means
that more SKBs are pending to be transmitted on the same queue as the
current SKB. And therefore, the driver may elide the tail pointer
update.
Right now skb->xmit_more is always zero.

this patch just reuse NAPI state to avoid extra overhead for fast path

connected through 40gb mlx4 cards. With both busy_poll and busy_read
are set to 50 in guest, 1 byte netperf tcp_rr shows 127% improvement:

Move common receive logic to a new helper virtnet_receive(). It will
also be used by rx busy polling method.

net: get rid of SET_ETHTOOL_OPS
Dave Miller mentioned he'd like to see SET_ETHTOOL_OPS gone.
This does that.
Mostly done via coccinelle script:
@@
struct ethtool_ops *ops;
struct net_device *dev;
@@
- SET_ETHTOOL_OPS(dev, ops);
+ dev->ethtool_ops = ops;
Compile tested only, but I'd seriously wonder if this broke anything.

This is a small supplement for commit e7428e95a06fb516fac1308bd0e176e27c0b9287
("virtio-net: put virtio-net header inline with data"). TCP packages have
enough room to put virtio-net header in, but UDP packages do not. By
setting dev->needed_headroom for virtio-net device, UDP packages could have
enough room.
For UDP packages, sk_buff is alloced in fun __ip_append_data. The size is
"alloclen + hh_len + 15", and "hh_len = LL_RESERVED_SPACE(rt-dst.dev);".
The Macro is defined as follows:
#define LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) \
((((dev)->hard_header_len+(dev)->needed_headroom)\
&~(HH_DATA_MOD - 1)) + HH_DATA_MOD)
By default, for UDP packages, after skb is allocated, only 16 bytes
reserved. And 2 bytes remained after mac header is set. That is not enough
to put virtio-net header in. If we set dev->needed_headroom to 12 or 10
(according to mergeable_rx_bufs is on or off ), more room can be reserved.
Then there is enough room for UDP packages to put the header in.

Execute "ethtool -L eth0 combined 0" in guest, if multiqueue
is enabled, virtnet_send_command() will return -EINVAL error,
there is a validation in QEMU.
But if multiqueue is disabled, virtnet_set_queues() will just
return zero (success). We should return error for this situation.
