Some drivers are unable to perform TX completions in a bound time.
They instead call skb_orphan()
Problem is skb_fclone_busy() has to detect this case, otherwise
we block TCP retransmits and can freeze unlucky tcp sessions on
mostly idle hosts.

If the skb is not dropped afterwards we should run consume_skb instead
kfree_skb. Inside of function skb_unshare we do always a kfree_skb,
doesn't depend if skb_copy failed or was successful.
This patch switch this behaviour like skb_share_check, if allocation of
sk_buff failed we use kfree_skb otherwise consume_skb.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.

Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().

SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE has overloaded meaning depending on type of skb.
1: If skb is allocated from head_cache, it indicates fclone is not available.
2: If skb is a companion fclone skb (allocated from fclone_cache), it indicates
it is available to be used.
To avoid confusion for case 2 above, this patch replaces
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE with SKB_FCLONE_FREE where appropriate. For fclone
companion skbs, this indicates it is free for use.
SKB_FCLONE_UNAVAILABLE will now simply indicate skb is from head_cache and
cannot / will not have a companion fclone.

skb_udp_segment is the function called from udp4_ufo_fragment to
segment a UDP tunnel packet. This function currently assumes
segmentation is transparent Ethernet bridging (i.e. VXLAN
encapsulation). This patch generalizes the function to
operate on either Ethertype or IP protocol.
The inner_protocol field must be set to the protocol of the inner
header. This can now be either an Ethertype or an IP protocol
(in a union). A new flag in the skbuff indicates which type is
effective. skb_set_inner_protocol and skb_set_inner_ipproto
helper functions were added to set the inner_protocol. These
functions are called from the point where the tunnel encapsulation
is occuring.
When skb_udp_tunnel_segment is called, the function to segment the
inner packet is selected based on the inner IP or Ethertype. In the
case of an IP protocol encapsulation, the function is derived from
inet[6]_offloads. In the case of Ethertype, skb->protocol is
set to the inner_protocol and skb_mac_gso_segment is called. (GRE
currently does this, but it might be possible to lookup the protocol
in offload_base and call the appropriate segmenation function
directly).

====================
pull request: netfilter/ipvs updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
1) Four patches to make the new nf_tables masquerading support
independent of the x_tables infrastructure. This also resolves a
compilation breakage if the masquerade target is disabled but the
nf_tables masq expression is enabled.
2) ipset updates via Jozsef Kadlecsik. This includes the addition of the
skbinfo extension that allows you to store packet metainformation in the
elements. This can be used to fetch and restore this to the packets through
the iptables SET target, patches from Anton Danilov.
3) Add the hash:mac set type to ipset, from Jozsef Kadlecsick.
4) Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler via Simon Horman. This provides
a fail-over IPVS scheduler (unlike existing load balancing schedulers).
Connections are directed to the appropriate server based solely on
highest weight value and server availability, patch from Kenny Mathis.
5) Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa.
Simon Horman informs that the motivation for this is to allow more
flexibility in the choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers
and real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection
from an end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and
vice versa. No ip_vs_sync support yet though. Patches from Alex Gartrell
and Julian Anastasov.
6) Add global generation ID to the nf_tables ruleset. When dumping from
several different object lists, we need a way to identify that an update
has ocurred so userspace knows that it needs to refresh its lists. This
also includes a new command to obtain the 32-bits generation ID. The
less significant 16-bits of this ID is also exposed through res_id field
in the nfnetlink header to quickly detect the interference and retry when
there is no risk of ID wraparound.
7) Move br_netfilter out of the bridge core. The br_netfilter code is
built in the bridge core by default. This causes problems of different
kind to people that don't want this: Jesper reported performance drop due
to the inconditional hook registration and I remember to have read complains
on netdev from people regarding the unexpected behaviour of our bridging
stack when br_netfilter is enabled (fragmentation handling, layer 3 and
upper inspection). People that still need this should easily undo the
damage by modprobing the new br_netfilter module.
8) Dump the set policy nf_tables that allows set parameterization. So
userspace can keep user-defined preferences when saving the ruleset.
From Arturo Borrero.
9) Use __seq_open_private() helper function to reduce boiler plate code
in x_tables, From Rob Jones.
10) Safer default behaviour in case that you forget to load the protocol
tracker. Daniel Borkmann and Florian Westphal detected that if your
ruleset is stateful, you allow traffic to at least one single SCTP port
and the SCTP protocol tracker is not loaded, then any SCTP traffic may
be pass through unfiltered. After this patch, the connection tracking
classifies SCTP/DCCP/UDPlite/GRE packets as invalid if your kernel has
been compiled with support for these modules.
====================
Trivially resolved conflict in include/linux/skbuff.h, Eric moved some
netfilter skbuff members around, and the netfilter tree adjusted the

With proliferation of bit fields in sk_buff, __copy_skb_header() became
quite expensive, showing as the most expensive function in a GSO
workload.
__copy_skb_header() performance is also critical for non GSO TCP
operations, as it is used from skb_clone()
This patch carefully moves all the fields that were not copied in a
separate zone : cloned, nohdr, fclone, peeked, head_frag, xmit_more
Then I moved all other fields and all other copied fields in a section
delimited by headers_start[0]/headers_end[0] section so that we
can use a single memcpy() call, inlined by compiler using long
word load/stores.
I also tried to make all copies in the natural orders of sk_buff,
to help hardware prefetching.
I made sure sk_buff size did not change.

Per commit "77873803363c net_dma: mark broken" net_dma is no longer used
and there is no plan to fix it.
This is the mechanical removal of bits in CONFIG_NET_DMA ifdef guards.
Reverting the remainder of the net_dma induced changes is deferred to
subsequent patches.

While profiling TCP stack, I noticed one useless atomic operation
in tcp_sendmsg(), caused by skb_header_release().
It turns out all current skb_header_release() users have a fresh skb,
that no other user can see, so we can avoid one atomic operation.

Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
don't need this.
This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.
Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.
However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
didn't notice that this has been deprecated.
On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
seem to require.
This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

Currently we have 2 pkt_type_offset functions doing the same thing and
spread across the architecture files. Remove those and replace them
with a PKT_TYPE_OFFSET macro helper which gets the constant value from a
zero sized sk_buff member right in front of the bitfield with offsetof.

This patch updates some of the flow_dissector api so that it can be used to
parse the length of ethernet buffers stored in fragments. Most of the
changes needed were to __skb_get_poff as it needed to be updated to support
sending a linear buffer instead of a skb.
I have split __skb_get_poff into two functions, the first is skb_get_poff
and it retains the functionality of the original __skb_get_poff. The other
function is __skb_get_poff which now works much like __skb_flow_dissect in
relation to skb_flow_dissect in that it provides the same functionality but
works with just a data buffer and hlen instead of needing an skb.

The phy timestamping takes a different path than the regular timestamping
does in that it will create a clone first so that the packets needing to be
timestamped can be placed in a queue, or the context block could be used.
In order to support these use cases I am pulling the core of the code out
so it can be used in other drivers beyond just phy devices.
In addition I have added a destructor named sock_efree which is meant to
provide a simple way for dropping the reference to skb exceptions that
aren't part of either the receive or send windows for the socket, and I
have removed some duplication in spots where this destructor could be used
in place of sock_edemux.

For normal path, added skb_checksum_try_convert which is called
to attempt to convert CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. The
primary condition to allow this is that ip_summed is CHECKSUM_NONE
and csum_valid is true, which will be the state after consuming
a CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
For GRO path, added skb_gro_checksum_try_convert which is the GRO
analogue of skb_checksum_try_convert. The primary condition to allow
this is that NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt == 0 and
NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_valid is set. This implies that we have consumed
all available CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY checksums in the GRO path.

This flag indicates that an invalid checksum was detected in the
packet. __skb_mark_checksum_bad helper function was added to set this.
Checksums can be marked bad from a driver or the GRO path (the latter
is implemented in this patch). csum_bad is checked in
__skb_checksum_validate_complete (i.e. calling that when ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_NONE).
csum_bad works in conjunction with ip_summed value. In the case that
ip_summed is CHECKSUM_NONE and csum_bad is set, this implies that the
first (or next) checksum encountered in the packet is bad. When
ip_summed is CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, the first checksum after the last
one validated is bad. For example, if ip_summed == CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY,
csum_level == 1, and csum_bad is set-- then the third checksum in the
packet is bad. In the normal path, the packet will be dropped when
processing the protocol layer of the bad checksum:
__skb_decr_checksum_unnecessary called twice for the good checksums
changing ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE so that
__skb_checksum_validate_complete is called to validate the third
checksum and that will fail since csum_bad is set.

This patch:
- Clarifies the specific requirements of devices returning

- Adds csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
This replaces the overloading of skb->encapsulation, that field is
is now only used to indicate inner headers are valid.
- Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum
as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed.
- Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new
csum_level model.

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.

Drivers, and perhaps other entities we have not yet considered,
sometimes want to know how deep the protocol headers go before
deciding how large of an SKB to allocate and how much of the packet to
place into the linear SKB area.
For example, consider a driver which has a device which DMAs into
pools of pages and then tells the driver where the data went in the
DMA descriptor(s). The driver can then build an SKB and reference
most of the data via SKB fragments (which are page/offset/length
triplets).
However at least some of the front of the packet should be placed into
the linear SKB area, which comes before the fragments, so that packet
processing can get at the headers efficiently. The first thing each
protocol layer is going to do is a "pskb_may_pull()" so we might as
well aggregate as much of this as possible while we're building the
SKB in the driver.
Part of supporting this is that we don't have an SKB yet, so we want
to be able to let the flow dissector operate on a raw buffer in order
to compute the offset of the end of the headers.
So now we have a __skb_flow_dissect() which takes an explicit data
pointer and length.

Currently the functionality to untag traffic on input resides
as part of the vlan module and is build only when VLAN support
is enabled in the kernel. When VLAN is disabled, the function
vlan_untag() turns into a stub and doesn't really untag the
packets. This seems to create an interesting interaction
between VMs supporting checksum offloading and some network drivers.
There are some drivers that do not allow the user to change
tx-vlan-offload feature of the driver. These drivers also seem
to assume that any VLAN-tagged traffic they transmit will
have the vlan information in the vlan_tci and not in the vlan
header already in the skb. When transmitting skbs that already
have tagged data with partial checksum set, the checksum doesn't
appear to be updated correctly by the card thus resulting in a
failure to establish TCP connections.
The following is a packet trace taken on the receiver where a
sender is a VM with a VLAN configued. The host VM is running on
doest not have VLAN support and the outging interface on the
host is tg3:
10:12:43.503055 52:54:00:ae:42:3f > 28:d2:44:7d:c2:de, ethertype 802.1Q

4294838888 ecr 0,nop,wscale 7], length 0
This connection finally times out.
I've only access to the TG3 hardware in this configuration thus have
only tested this with TG3 driver. There are a lot of other drivers
that do not permit user changes to vlan acceleration features, and
I don't know if they all suffere from a similar issue.
The patch attempt to fix this another way. It moves the vlan header
stipping code out of the vlan module and always builds it into the
kernel network core. This way, even if vlan is not supported on
a virtualizatoin host, the virtual machines running on top of such
host will still work with VLANs enabled.

Add SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK, a request for a tstamp when the last byte
in the send() call is acknowledged. It implements the feature for TCP.
The timestamp is generated when the TCP socket cumulative ACK is moved
beyond the tracked seqno for the first time. The feature ignores SACK
and FACK, because those acknowledge the specific byte, but not
necessarily the entire contents of the buffer up to that byte.

Kernel transmit latency is often incurred in the packet scheduler.
Introduce a new timestamp on transmission just before entering the
scheduler. When data travels through multiple devices (bonding,
tunneling, ...) each device will export an individual timestamp.

Datagrams timestamped on transmission can coexist in the kernel stack
and be reordered in packet scheduling. When reading looped datagrams
from the socket error queue it is not always possible to unique
correlate looped data with original send() call (for application
level retransmits). Even if possible, it may be expensive and complex,
requiring packet inspection.
Introduce a data-independent ID mechanism to associate timestamps with
send calls. Pass an ID alongside the timestamp in field ee_data of
sock_extended_err.
The ID is a simple 32 bit unsigned int that is associated with the
socket and incremented on each send() call for which software tx
timestamp generation is enabled.
The feature is enabled only if SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID is set, to
avoid changing ee_data for existing applications that expect it 0.
The counter is reset each time the flag is reenabled. Reenabling
does not change the ID of already submitted data. It is possible
to receive out of order IDs if the timestamp stream is not quiesced
first.

Applications that request kernel tx timestamps with SO_TIMESTAMPING
read timestamps as recvmsg() ancillary data. The response is defined
implicitly as timespec[3].
1) define struct scm_timestamping explicitly and
2) add support for new tstamp types. On tx, scm_timestamping always
accompanies a sock_extended_err. Define previously unused field
ee_info to signal the type of ts[0]. Introduce SCM_TSTAMP_SND to
define the existing behavior.
The reception path is not modified. On rx, no struct similar to
sock_extended_err is passed along with SCM_TIMESTAMPING.

The SO_TIMESTAMPING API defines three types of timestamps: software,
hardware in raw format (hwtstamp) and hardware converted to system
format (syststamp). The last has been deprecated in favor of combining
hwtstamp with a PTP clock driver. There are no active users in the
kernel.
The option was device driver dependent. If set, but without hardware
support, the correct behavior is to return zero in the relevant field
in the SCM_TIMESTAMPING ancillary message. Without device drivers
implementing the option, this field is effectively always zero.
Remove the internal plumbing to dissuage new drivers from implementing
the feature. Keep the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HARDWARE flag, however, to
avoid breaking existing applications that request the timestamp.

The SO_TIMESTAMPING API defines option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SYS_HW.
This feature is deprecated. It should not be implemented by new
device drivers. Existing drivers do not implement it, either --
with one exception.
Driver developers are encouraged to expose the NIC hw clock as a
PTP HW clock source, instead, and synchronize system time to the
HW source.
The control flag cannot be removed due to being part of the ABI, nor
can the structure scm_timestamping that is returned. Due to the one
legacy driver, the internal datapath and structure are not removed.
This patch only clearly marks the interface as deprecated. Device
drivers should always return a syststamp value of zero.

Currently when the first checksum in a packet is validated using
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE, ip_summed is overwritten to be CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
so that any subsequent checksums in the packet are not correctly
validated.
This patch adds csum_valid flag in sk_buff and uses that to indicate
validated checksum instead of setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. The bit
is set accordingly in the skb_checksum_validate_* functions. The flag
is checked in skb_checksum_complete, so that validation is communicated
between checksum_init and checksum_complete sequence in TCP and UDP.

When creating a GSO packet segment we may need to set more than
one checksum in the packet (for instance a TCP checksum and
UDP checksum for VXLAN encapsulation). To be efficient, we want
to do checksum calculation for any part of the packet at most once.
This patch adds csum_start offset to skb_gso_cb. This tracks the
starting offset for skb->csum which is initially set in skb_segment.
When a protocol needs to compute a transport checksum it calls
gso_make_checksum which computes the checksum value from the start
of transport header to csum_start and then adds in skb->csum to get
the full checksum. skb->csum and csum_start are then updated to reflect
the checksum of the resultant packet starting from the transport header.
This patch also adds a flag to skbuff, encap_hdr_csum, which is set
in *gso_segment fucntions to indicate that a tunnel protocol needs
checksum calculation

Create a general __skb_checksum_validate function (actually a
macro) to subsume the various checksum_init functions. This
function can either init the checksum, or do the full validation
(logically checksum_init+skb_check_complete)-- a flag specifies
if full vaidation is performed. Also, there is a flag to the function
to indicate that zero checksums are allowed (to support optional
UDP checksums).
Added several stub functions for calling __skb_checksum_validate.

Currently netpoll and skb_release_head_state assume that a skb is
freeable in hard irq context except when skb->destructor is set.
The reality is far from this. So add a function skb_irq_freeable to
compute the full test and in the process be the living documentation
of what the requirements are of actually freeing a skb in hard irq
context.

This commit fixes a build error reported by Fengguang, that is
triggered when CONFIG_NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING is not set:
ERROR: "ptp_classify_raw" [drivers/net/ethernet/oki-semi/pch_gbe/pch_gbe.ko] undefined!
The fix is to introduce its own file for the PTP BPF classifier,
so that PTP_1588_CLOCK and/or NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING can select
it independently from each other. IXP4xx driver on ARM needs to
select it as well since it does not seem to select PTP_1588_CLOCK
or similar that would pull it in automatically.
This also allows for hiding all of the internals of the BPF PTP
program inside that file, and only exporting relevant API bits
to drivers.
This patch also adds a kdoc documentation of ptp_classify_raw()
API to make it clear that it can return PTP_CLASS_* defines. Also,
the BPF program has been translated into bpf_asm code, so that it
can be more easily read and altered (extensively documented in [1]).
In the kernel tree under tools/net/ we have bpf_asm and bpf_dbg
tools, so the commented program can simply be translated via
`./bpf_asm -c prog` where prog is a file that contains the
commented code. This makes it easily readable/verifiable and when
there's a need to change something, jump offsets etc do not need
to be replaced manually which can be very error prone. Instead,
a newly translated version via bpf_asm can simply replace the old
code. I have checked opcode diffs before/after and it's the very
same filter.
