Apparently loopback device is being registered first and thus we
receive an event notification when vxlan_net is not ready. Hence,
when we call net_generic() and request vxlan_net_id, we seem to
access garbage at that point in time. In setup_net() where we set
up a newly allocated network namespace, we traverse the list of
pernet ops ...
... and loopback_net_init() is invoked first here, so in the middle
of setup_net() we get this notification in vxlan. As currently we
only care about devices that unregister, move access through
net_generic() there. Fix is based on Cong Wang's proposal, but
only changes what is needed here. It sucks a bit as we only work
around the actual cure: right now it seems the only way to check if
a netns actually finished traversing all init ops would be to check
if it's part of net_namespace_list. But that I find quite expensive
each time we go through a notifier callback. Anyway, did a couple
of tests and it seems good for now.

The virtio-net device currently uses aligned MTU-sized mergeable receive
packet buffers. Network throughput for workloads with large average
packet size can be improved by posting larger receive packet buffers.
However, due to SKB truesize effects, posting large (e.g, PAGE_SIZE)
buffers reduces the throughput of workloads that do not benefit from GRO
and have no large inbound packets.
This patchset introduces virtio-net mergeable buffer size auto-tuning,
with buffer sizes ranging from aligned MTU-size to PAGE_SIZE. Packet
buffer size is chosen based on a per-receive queue EWMA of incoming
packet size.
To unify mergeable receive buffer memory allocation and improve
SKB frag coalescing, all mergeable buffer memory allocation is
migrated to per-receive queue page frag allocators.
The per-receive queue mergeable packet buffer size is exported via
sysfs, and the network device sysfs layer has been extended to add
support for device-specific per-receive queue sysfs attribute groups.

virtio-net: auto-tune mergeable rx buffer size for improved performance
Commit 2613af0ed18a ("virtio_net: migrate mergeable rx buffers to page frag
allocators") changed the mergeable receive buffer size from PAGE_SIZE to
MTU-size, introducing a single-stream regression for benchmarks with large
average packet size. There is no single optimal buffer size for all
workloads. For workloads with packet size <= MTU bytes, MTU + virtio-net
header-sized buffers are preferred as larger buffers reduce the TCP window
due to SKB truesize. However, single-stream workloads with large average
packet sizes have higher throughput if larger (e.g., PAGE_SIZE) buffers
are used.
This commit auto-tunes the mergeable receiver buffer packet size by
choosing the packet buffer size based on an EWMA of the recent packet
sizes for the receive queue. Packet buffer sizes range from MTU_SIZE +
virtio-net header len to PAGE_SIZE. This improves throughput for
large packet workloads, as any workload with average packet size >=
PAGE_SIZE will use PAGE_SIZE buffers.
These optimizations interact positively with recent commit ba275241030c ("virtio-net: coalesce rx frags when possible during rx"),
which coalesces adjacent RX SKB fragments in virtio_net. The coalescing
optimizations benefit buffers of any size.
Benchmarks taken from an average of 5 netperf 30-second TCP_STREAM runs
between two QEMU VMs on a single physical machine. Each VM has two VCPUs
with all offloads & vhost enabled. All VMs and vhost threads run in a
single 4 CPU cgroup cpuset, using cgroups to ensure that other processes
in the system will not be scheduled on the benchmark CPUs. Trunk includes
SKB rx frag coalescing.

To address fragmentation concerns, if after buffer allocation there

unless GFP_WAIT is used. Change skb_page_frag_refill to attempt
higher-order page allocations whether or not GFP_WAIT is used. If
memory cannot be allocated, the allocator will fall back to
successively smaller page allocs (down to order-0 page allocs).
This change brings skb_page_frag_refill in line with the existing
page allocation strategy employed by netdev_alloc_frag, which attempts
higher-order page allocations whether or not GFP_WAIT is set, falling
back to successively lower-order page allocations on failure. Part
of migration of virtio-net to per-receive queue page frag allocators.

====================
tipc: align TIPC behaviours of waiting for events with other stacks
Comparing the current implementations of waiting for events in TIPC
socket layer with other stacks, TIPC's behaviour is very different
because wait_event_interruptible_timeout()/wait_event_interruptible()
are always used by TIPC to wait for events while relevant socket or
port variables are fed to them as their arguments. As socket lock has
to be released temporarily before the two routines of waiting for
events are called, their arguments associated with socket or port
structures are out of socket lock protection. This might cause
serious issues where the process of calling socket syscall such as
sendsmg(), connect(), accept(), and recvmsg(), cannot be waken up
at all even if proper event arrives or improperly be woken up
although the condition of waking up the process is not satisfied
in practice.
Therefore, aligning its behaviours with similar functions implemented
in other stacks, for instance, sk_stream_wait_connect() and
inet_csk_wait_for_connect() etc, can avoid above risks for us.

In function tpacket_snd(), it is okay to use packet_read_pending()

ph != NULL, since we have next frames to process. In case we have
MSG_DONTWAIT, we also do not execute this path as need_wait is
false here anyway, and in case of _no_ MSG_DONTWAIT flag, it is
okay to call a packet_read_pending(), because when we ever reach
that path, we're done processing outgoing frames anyway and only
look if there are skbs still outstanding to be orphaned. We can
stay lockless in this percpu counter since it's acceptable when we
reach this path for the sum to be imprecise first, but we'll level
out at 0 after all pending frames have reached the skb destructor
eventually through tx reclaim. When people pin a tx process to
particular CPUs, we expect overflows to happen in the reference
counter as on one CPU we expect heavy increase; and distributed
through ksoftirqd on all CPUs a decrease, for example. As
David Laight points out, since the C language doesn't define the
result of signed int overflow (i.e. rather than wrap, it is
allowed to saturate as a possible outcome), we have to use
unsigned int as reference count. The sum over all CPUs when tx
is complete will result in 0 again.
The BUG_ON() in tpacket_destruct_skb() we can remove as well. It
can _only_ be set from inside tpacket_snd() path and we made sure
to increase tx_ring.pending in any case before we called po->xmit(skb).
So testing for tx_ring.pending == 0 is not too useful. Instead, it
would rather have been useful to test if lower layers didn't orphan
the skb so that we're missing ring slots being put back to
TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE. But such a bug will be caught in user space
already as we end up realizing that we do not have any
TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE slots left anymore. Therefore, we're all set.
Btw, in case of RX_RING path, we do not make use of the pending
member, therefore we also don't need to use up any percpu memory
here. Also note that __alloc_percpu() already returns a zero-filled
percpu area, so initialization is done already.

is unnecessary in this case since it's enough to just quit

packet: improve socket create/bind latency in some cases
Most people acquire PF_PACKET sockets with a protocol argument in
the socket call, e.g. libpcap does so with htons(ETH_P_ALL) for
all its sockets. Most likely, at some point in time a subsequent
bind() call will follow, e.g. in libpcap with ...
... as arguments. What happens in the kernel is that already
in socket() syscall, we install a proto hook via register_prot_hook()
if our protocol argument is != 0. Yet, in bind() we're almost
doing the same work by doing a unregister_prot_hook() with an
expensive synchronize_net() call in case during socket() the proto
was != 0, plus follow-up register_prot_hook() with a bound device
to it this time, in order to limit traffic we get.
In the case when the protocol and user supplied device index (== 0)
does not change from socket() to bind(), we can spare us doing
the same work twice. Similarly for re-binding to the same device
and protocol. For these scenarios, we can decrease create/bind
latency from ~7447us (sock-bind-2 case) to ~89us (sock-bind-1 case)
with this patch.
Alternatively, for the first case, if people care, they should
simply create their sockets with proto == 0 argument and define
the protocol during bind() as this saves a call to synchronize_net()
as well (sock-bind-3 case).
In all other cases, we're tied to user space behaviour we must not
change, also since a bind() is not strictly required. Thus, we need
the synchronize_net() to make sure no asynchronous packet processing
paths still refer to the previous elements of po->prot_hook.
In case of mmap()ed sockets, the workflow that includes bind() is
socket() -> setsockopt(<ring>) -> bind(). In that case, a pair of
{__unregister, register}_prot_hook is being called from setsockopt()
in order to install the new protocol receive handler. Thus, when
we call bind and can skip a re-hook, we have already previously
installed the new handler. For fanout, this is handled different
entirely, so we should be good.

Recent commit 438e38fadca2f6e57eeecc08326c8a95758594d4
("gre_offload: statically build GRE offloading support") added
new module_init/module_exit calls to the gre_offload.c file.
The file is obj-y and can't be anything other than built-in.
Currently it can never be built modular, so using module_init
as an alias for __initcall can be somewhat misleading.
Fix this up now, so that we can relocate module_init from
init.h into module.h in the future. If we don't do this, we'd
have to add module.h to obviously non-modular code, and that
would be a worse thing. We also make the inclusion explicit.
Note that direct use of __initcall is discouraged, vs. one
of the priority categorized subgroups. As __initcall gets
mapped onto device_initcall, our use of device_initcall
directly in this change means that the runtime impact is
zero -- it will remain at level 6 in initcall ordering.
As for the module_exit, rather than replace it with __exitcall,
we simply remove it, since it appears only UML does anything
with those, and even for UML, there is no relevant cleanup
to be done here.

Srinivas Kandagatla says:
====================
net: stmmac PM related fixes.
During PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE testing, I have noticed that PM support in STMMAC is
partly broken. I had to re-arrange the code to do PM correctly. There were lot
of things I did not like personally and some bits did not work in the first
place. I thought this is the nice opportunity to clean the mess up.
Here is what I did:
any
1> Test PM suspend freeze via pm_test
It did not work for following reasons.
- If the power to gmac is removed when it enters in low power state.
stmmac_resume could not cope up with such behaviour, it was expecting the ip
register contents to be still same as before entering low power, This
assumption is wrong. So I started to add some code to do Hardware
initialization, thats when I started to re-arrange the code. stmmac_open
contains both resource and memory allocations and hardware initialization. I
had to separate these two things in two different functions.
These two patches do that
net: stmmac: move dma allocation to new function
net: stmmac: move hardware setup for stmmac_open to new function
And rest of the other patches are fixing the loose ends, things like mdio
reset, which might be necessary in cases likes hibernation(I did not test).
In hibernation cases the driver was just unregistering with subsystems and
releasing resources which I did not like and its not necessary to do this as
part of PM. So using the same stmmac_suspend/resume made more sense for
hibernation cases than using stmmac_open/release.
Also fixed a NULL pointer dereference bug too.
2> Test WOL via PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE
Did get an wakeup interrupt, but could not wakeup a freeze system.
So I had to add pm_wakeup_event to the driver.
net: stmmac: notify the PM core of a wakeup event. patch.
Also few patches like
net: stmmac: make stmmac_mdio_reset non-static
net: stmmac: restore pinstate in pm resume.
helps the resume function to reset the phy and put back the pins in default
state.

- Rebased to net-next on Dave's suggestion.

In PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE and WOL(Wakeup On Lan) case, when the driver gets a

the pm core about it, so that the system can wakeup from low power.
In cases where there is no involvement of platform specific PM, it
becomes driver responsibility to notify the PM core to wakeup the
system.
Without this WOL with PM_SUSPEND_FREEZE does not work on STi based SOCs.

In hibernation freeze case the driver just releases the resources like
dma buffers, irqs, unregisters the drivers and during restore it does
register, request the resources. This is not really necessary, as part
of power management all the data structures are intact, all the
previously allocated resources can be used after coming out of low
power.
This patch uses the suspend and resume callbacks for freeze and
restore which initializes the hardware correctly without unregistering
or releasing the resources, this should also help in reducing the time
to restore.
Also this patch fixes a bug in stmmac_pltfr_restore and
stmmac_pltfr_freeze where it tries to get hold of platform data via
dev_get_platdata call, which would return NULL in device tree cases and
the next if statement would crash as there is no NULL check.

The driver PM resume assumes that the IP is still powered up and the

should not consider any state of registers after it comes out of low
power. However driver can keep the part of the IP powered up if its a
wake up source. But it can not assume the register state of the IP. Also
its possible that SOC glue layer can take the power off the IP if its
not wake-up source to reduce the power consumption.

Merge branch 'mvneta'
Willy Tarreau says:
====================
Assorted mvneta fixes and improvements
this series provides some fixes for a number of issues met with the
mvneta driver, then adds some improvements. Patches 1-5 are fixes
and would be needed in 3.13 and likely -stable. The next ones are
performance improvements and cleanups :
- driver lockup when reading stats while sending traffic from multiple
CPUs : this obviously only happens on SMP and is the result of missing
locking on the driver. The problem was present since the introduction
of the driver in 3.8. The first patch performs some changes that are
needed for the second one which actually fixes the issue by using
per-cpu counters. It could make sense to backport this to the relevant
stable versions.
- mvneta_tx_timeout calls various functions to reset the NIC, and these
functions sleep, which is not allowed here, resulting in a panic.
Better completely disable this Tx timeout handler for now since it is
never called. The problem was encountered while developing some new
features, it's uncertain whether it's possible to reproduce it with
regular usage, so maybe a backport to stable is not needed.
- replace the Tx timer with a real Tx IRQ. As first reported by Arnaud
Ebalard and explained by Eric Dumazet, there is no way this driver
can work correctly if it uses a driver to recycle the Tx descriptors.
If too many packets are sent at once, the driver quickly ends up with
no descriptors (which happens twice as easily in GSO) and has to wait
10ms for recycling its descriptors and being able to send again. Eric
has worked around this in the core GSO code. But still when routing
traffic or sending UDP packets, the limitation is very visible. Using
Tx IRQs allows Tx descriptors to be recycled when sent. The coalesce
value is still configurable using ethtool. This fix turns the UDP
send bitrate from 134 Mbps to 987 Mbps (ie: line rate). It's made of
two patches, one to add the relevant bits from the original Marvell's
driver, and another one to implement the change. I don't know if it
should be backported to stable, as the bug only causes poor performance.
- Patches 6..8 are essentially cleanups, code deduplication and minor
optimizations for not re-fetching a value we already have (status).
- patch 9 changes the prefetch of Rx descriptor from current one to
next one. In benchmarks, it results in about 1% general performance
increase on HTTP traffic, probably because prefetching the current
descriptor does not leave enough time between the start of prefetch
and its usage.
- patch 10 implements support for build_skb() on Rx path. The driver
now preallocates frags instead of skbs and builds an skb just before
delivering it. This results in a 2% performance increase on HTTP
traffic, and up to 5% on small packet Rx rate.
- patch 11 implements rx_copybreak for small packets (256 bytes). It
avoids a dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single() and increases the Rx
rate by 16.4%, from 486kpps to 573kpps. Further improvements up to
711kpps are possible depending how the DMA is used.
- patches 12 and 13 are extra cleanups made possible by some of the
simplifications above.

calling dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single() is quite expensive compared

mapped. We set the limit to 256 bytes which seems to give good results both
on the XP-GP board and on the AX3/4.
The Rx small packet rate increased by 16.4% doing this, from 486kpps to
573kpps. It is worth noting that even the call to the function
dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu() is expensive (300 ns) although less
than dma_unmap_single(). Without it, the packet rate raises to 711kpps
(+24% more). Thus on systems where coherency from device to CPU is
guaranteed by a snoop control unit, this patch should provide even more
gains, and probably rx_copybreak could be increased.

net: mvneta: replace Tx timer with a real interrupt
Right now the mvneta driver doesn't handle Tx IRQ, and relies on two
mechanisms to flush Tx descriptors : a flush at the end of mvneta_tx()
and a timer. If a burst of packets is emitted faster than the device
can send them, then the queue is stopped until next wake-up of the
timer 10ms later. This causes jerky output traffic with bursts and
pauses, making it difficult to reach line rate with very few streams.
A test on UDP traffic shows that it's not possible to go beyond 134
Mbps / 12 kpps of outgoing traffic with 1500-bytes IP packets. Routed
traffic tends to observe pauses as well if the traffic is bursty,
making it even burstier after the wake-up.
It seems that this feature was inherited from the original driver but
nothing there mentions any reason for not using the interrupt instead,
which the chip supports.
Thus, this patch enables Tx interrupts and removes the timer. It does
the two at once because it's not really possible to make the two
mechanisms coexist, so a split patch doesn't make sense.
First tests performed on a Mirabox (Armada 370) show that less CPU
seems to be used when sending traffic. One reason might be that we now
call the mvneta_tx_done_gbe() with a mask indicating which queues have
been done instead of looping over all of them.
The same UDP test above now happily reaches 987 Mbps / 87.7 kpps.
Single-stream TCP traffic can now more easily reach line rate. HTTP
transfers of 1 MB objects over a single connection went from 730 to
840 Mbps. It is even possible to go significantly higher (>900 Mbps)
by tweaking tcp_tso_win_divisor.
