tcp: TCP Small Queues
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.

Merge branch 'metrics_restructure'
This patch series works towards the goal of minimizing the amount
of things that can change in an ipv4 route.
In a regime where the routing cache is removed, route changes will
lead to cloning in the FIB tables or similar.
The largest trigger of route metrics writes, TCP, now has it's own
cache of dynamic metric state. The timewait timestamps are stored
there now as well.
As a result of that, pre-cowing metrics is no longer necessary,
and therefore FLOWI_FLAG_PRECOW_METRICS is removed.
Redirect and PMTU handling is moved back into the ipv4 routes. I'm
sorry for all the headaches trying to do this in the inetpeer has
caused, it was the wrong approach for sure.
Since metrics become read-only for ipv4 we no longer need the inetpeer
hung off of the ipv4 routes either. So those disappear too.
Also, timewait sockets no longer need to hold onto an inetpeer either.
After this series, we still have some details to resolve wrt. PMTU and
redirects for a route-cache-less system:
1) With just the plain route cache removal, PMTU will continue to
work mostly fine. This is because of how the local route users
call down into the PMTU update code with the route they already
hold.
However, if we wish to cache pre-computed routes in fib_info
nexthops (which we want for performance), then we need to add
route cloning for PMTU events.
2) Redirects require more work. First, redirects must be changed to
be handled like PMTU. Wherein we call down into the sockets and
other entities, and then they call back into the routing code with
the route they were using.
So we'll be adding an ->update_nexthop() method alongside
->update_pmtu().
And then, like for PMTU, we'll need cloning support once we start
caching routes in the fib_info nexthops.
But that's it, we can completely pull the trigger and remove the
routing cache with minimal disruptions.
As it is, this patch series alone helps a lot of things. For one,
routing cache entry creation should be a lot faster, because we no
longer do inetpeer lookups (even to check if an entry exists).
This patch series also opens the door for non-DST_HOST ipv4 routes,
because nothing fundamentally cares about rt->rt_dst any more. It
can be removed with the base routing cache removal patch. In fact,
that was the primary goal of this patch series.

accesses in cgrp_destroy(), read_priomap() & skb_update_prio()

bonding: debugfs and network namespaces are incompatible
The bonding debugfs support has been broken in the presence of network
namespaces since it has been added. The debugfs support does not handle
multiple bonding devices with the same name in different network
namespaces.
I haven't had any bug reports, and I'm not interested in getting any.
Disable the debugfs support when network namespaces are enabled.

bonding: Manage /proc/net/bonding/ entries from the netdev events
It was recently reported that moving a bonding device between network
namespaces causes warnings from /proc. It turns out after the move we
were trying to add and to remove the /proc/net/bonding entries from the
wrong network namespace.
Move the bonding /proc registration code into the NETDEV_REGISTER and
NETDEV_UNREGISTER events where the proc registration and unregistration
will always happen at the right time.

as the manual of module_pci_driver says that
it can be used when the init and exit functions of
the module does nothing but the pci_register_driver
and pci_unregister_driver.
use it for rdc's r6040 driver, as the init and exit
paths does as above, and also this reduces a little
amount of code.

For the higher mtu sizes requiring the buffer size greater than 8192,
the buffers are sent or received using multiple dma descriptors/ same
descriptor with option of multi buffer handling.
It was observed during tests that the driver was missing on data
packets during the normal ping operations if the data buffers being used
catered to jumbo frame handling.
The memory barrriers are added in between preparation of dma descriptors
in the jumbo frame handling path to ensure all instructions before
enabling the dma are complete.

It was observed that during multiple reboots nfs hangs. The status of
receive descriptors shows that all the descriptors were in control of
CPU, and none were assigned to DMA.
Also the DMA status register confirmed that the Rx buffer is
unavailable.
This patch adds the fix for the same by adding the memory barriers to
ascertain that the all instructions before enabling the Rx or Tx DMA are
completed which involves the proper setting of the ownership bit in DMA
descriptors.

iwlegacy: don't mess up the SCD when removing a key
When we remove a key, we put a key index which was supposed
to tell the fw that we are actually removing the key. But
instead the fw took that index as a valid index and messed
up the SRAM of the device.
This memory corruption on the device mangled the data of
the SCD. The impact on the user is that SCD queue 2 got
stuck after having removed keys.

If we only monitor while associated, the following
can happen:
- we're associated, and the queue stuck check
runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X
- we disassociate, stopping the monitoring,
which leaves the time set to X
- almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue
a frame
- before the frame is transmitted, we monitor
for stuck queues, and find the time set to
X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms,
so we decide that the queue is stuck and
erroneously restart the device

On rt2x00_dmastart() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX and on
rt2x00_dmadone() we increase index specified by Q_INDEX_DONE. So entries
between Q_INDEX_DONE and Q_INDEX are those we currently process in the
hardware. Entries between Q_INDEX and Q_INDEX_DONE are those we can
submit to the hardware.
According to that fix rt2x00usb_kick_queue(), as we need to submit RX
entries that are not processed by the hardware. It worked before only
for empty queue, otherwise was broken.
Note that for TX queues indexes ordering are ok. We need to kick entries
that have filled skb, but was not submitted to the hardware, i.e.
started from Q_INDEX_DONE and have ENTRY_DATA_PENDING bit set.
From practical standpoint this fixes RX queue stall, usually reproducible
in AP mode, like for example reported here:

mac80211: destroy assoc_data correctly if assoc fails
If association failed due to internal error (e.g. no
supported rates IE), we call ieee80211_destroy_assoc_data()
with assoc=true, while we actually reject the association.
This results in the BSSID not being zeroed out.
After passing assoc=false, we no longer have to call
sta_info_destroy_addr() explicitly. While on it, move
the "associated" message after the assoc_success check.

we set max_prioidx to the first zero bit index of prioidx_map in
function get_prioidx.
So when we delete the low index netprio cgroup and adding a new
netprio cgroup again,the max_prioidx will be set to the low index.
when we set the high index cgroup's net_prio.ifpriomap,the function
write_priomap will call update_netdev_tables to alloc memory which
size is sizeof(struct netprio_map) + sizeof(u32) * (max_prioidx + 1),
so the size of array that map->priomap point to is max_prioidx +1,
which is low than what we actually need.
fix this by adding check in get_prioidx,only set max_prioidx when
max_prioidx low than the new prioidx.
