No longer needed, as the protocol handlers now all properly

This introduce TSQ (TCP Small Queues)
TSQ goal is to reduce number of TCP packets in xmit queues (qdisc &
device queues), to reduce RTT and cwnd bias, part of the bufferbloat
problem.
sk->sk_wmem_alloc not allowed to grow above a given limit,
allowing no more than ~128KB [1] per tcp socket in qdisc/dev layers at a
given time.
TSO packets are sized/capped to half the limit, so that we have two
TSO packets in flight, allowing better bandwidth use.
As a side effect, setting the limit to 40000 automatically reduces the
standard gso max limit (65536) to 40000/2 : It can help to reduce
latencies of high prio packets, having smaller TSO packets.
This means we divert sock_wfree() to a tcp_wfree() handler, to
queue/send following frames when skb_orphan() [2] is called for the
already queued skbs.
Results on my dev machines (tg3/ixgbe nics) are really impressive,
using standard pfifo_fast, and with or without TSO/GSO.
Without reduction of nominal bandwidth, we have reduction of buffering
per bulk sender :
< 1ms on Gbit (instead of 50ms with TSO)
< 8ms on 100Mbit (instead of 132 ms)
I no longer have 4 MBytes backlogged in qdisc by a single netperf
session, and both side socket autotuning no longer use 4 Mbytes.
As skb destructor cannot restart xmit itself ( as qdisc lock might be
taken at this point ), we delegate the work to a tasklet. We use one
tasklest per cpu for performance reasons.
If tasklet finds a socket owned by the user, it sets TSQ_OWNED flag.
This flag is tested in a new protocol method called from release_sock(),
to eventually send new segments.
[1] New /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_limit_output_bytes tunable
[2] skb_orphan() is usually called at TX completion time,
but some drivers call it in their start_xmit() handler.
These drivers should at least use BQL, or else a single TCP
session can still fill the whole NIC TX ring, since TSQ will
have no effect.

Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs.
Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics.
The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low
latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only
make metrics blobs for fully established connections.
Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and
the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But
the basic design seems sound.

The device managed flow steering API has three promiscuous modes:
1. Uplink - captures all the packets that arrive to the port.
2. Allmulti - captures all multicast packets arriving to the port.
3. Function port - for future use, this mode is not implemented yet.
Use these modes with the flow_attach and flow_detach firmware commands
according to the promiscuous state of the netdevice.

The driver is modified to support three operation modes.
If supported by firmware use the device managed flow steering
API, that which we call device managed steering mode. Else, if
the firmware supports the B0 steering mode use it, and finally,
if none of the above, use the A0 steering mode.
When the steering mode is device managed, the code is modified
such that L2 based rules set by the mlx4_en driver for Ethernet
unicast and multicast, and the IB stack multicast attach calls
done through the mlx4_ib driver are all routed to use the device
managed API.
When attaching rule using device managed flow steering API,
the firmware returns a 64 bit registration id, which is to be
provided during detach.
Currently the firmware is always programmed during HCA initialization
to use standard L2 hashing. Future work should be done to allow
configuring the flow-steering hash function with common, non
proprietary means.

Instead of checking the firmware supported steering mode in various
places in the code, add a dedicated field in the mlx4 device capabilities
structure which is written once during the initialization flow and read
across the code.
This also set the grounds for add new steering modes. Currently two modes
are supported, and are named after the ConnectX HW versions A0 and B0.
A0 steering uses mac_index, vlan_index and priority to steer traffic
into pre-defined range of QPs.
B0 steering uses Ethernet L2 hashing rules and is enabled only
if the firmware supports both unicast and multicast B0 steering,
The current steering modes are relevant for Ethernet traffic only,
such that Infiniband steering remains untouched.

If the user hasn't actually installed any custom rules, or fiddled
with the default ones, don't go through the whole FIB rules layer.
It's just pure overhead.
Instead do what we do with CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES disabled, check
the individual tables by hand, one by one.
Also, move fib_num_tclassid_users into the ipv4 network namespace.

When a dst_confirm() happens, mark the confirmation as pending in the
dst. Then on the next packet out, when we have the neigh in-hand, do
the update.
This removes the dependency in dst_confirm() of dst's having an
attached neigh.
While we're here, remove the explicit 'dst' NULL check, all except 2
or 3 call sites ensure it's not NULL. So just fix those cases up.

This patch adds the support for the Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
to the Physical Abstraction Layer.
To support the EEE we have to access to the MMD registers 3.20 and
7.60/61. So two new functions have been added to read/write the MMD
registers (clause 45).
An Ethernet driver (I tested the stmmac) can invoke the phy_init_eee to properly
check if the EEE is supported by the PHYs and it can also set the clock
stop enable bit in the 3.0 register.
The phy_get_eee_err can be used for reporting the number of time where
the PHY failed to complete its normal wake sequence.
In the end, this patch also adds the EEE ethtool support implementing:
o phy_ethtool_set_eee
o phy_ethtool_get_eee
v1: initial patch
v2: fixed some errors especially on naming convention
v3: renamed again the mmd read/write functions thank to Ben's feedback
v4: moved file to phy.c and added the ethtool support.
v5: fixed phy_adv_to_eee, phy_eee_to_supported, phy_eee_to_adv return
values according to ethtool API (thanks to Ben's feedback).
Renamed some macros to avoid too long names.
v6: fixed kernel-doc comments to be properly parsed.
Fixed the phy_init_eee function: we need to check which link mode
was autonegotiated and then the corresponding bits in 7.60 and 7.61
registers.
v7: reviewed the way to get the negotiated settings.
v8: fixed a problem in the phy_init_eee return value erroneously added
when included the phy_read_status call.
v9: do not remove the MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_100TX and MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV_1000T
and fixed the eee_{cap,lp,adv} declaration as "int" instead of u16.

It was noticed recently that when we send data on a transport, its possible that
we might bundle a sack that arrived on a different transport. While this isn't
a major problem, it does go against the SHOULD requirement in section 6.4 of RFC
2960:
An endpoint SHOULD transmit reply chunks (e.g., SACK, HEARTBEAT ACK,
etc.) to the same destination transport address from which it
received the DATA or control chunk to which it is replying. This
rule should also be followed if the endpoint is bundling DATA chunks
together with the reply chunk.
This patch seeks to correct that. It restricts the bundling of sack operations
to only those transports which have moved the ctsn of the association forward
since the last sack. By doing this we guarantee that we only bundle outbound
saks on a transport that has received a chunk since the last sack. This brings
us into stricter compliance with the RFC.
Vlad had initially suggested that we strictly allow only sack bundling on the
transport that last moved the ctsn forward. While this makes sense, I was
concerned that doing so prevented us from bundling in the case where we had
received chunks that moved the ctsn on multiple transports. In those cases, the
RFC allows us to select any of the transports having received chunks to bundle
the sack on. so I've modified the approach to allow for that, by adding a state
variable to each transport that tracks weather it has moved the ctsn since the
last sack. This I think keeps our behavior (and performance), close enough to
our current profile that I think we can do this without a sysctl knob to
enable/disable it.

This patch adds the following structure:
struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
unsigned int groups;
void (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
struct mutex *cb_mutex;
};
That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
for netlink kernel sockets.
I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
left in the original interface.
That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
easy extensibility of this interface in the future.
This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.
