Until now, the requests sent to topology server are queued
to a workqueue by the generic server framework.
These messages are processed by worker threads and trigger the
registered callbacks.
To reduce latency on uniprocessor systems, explicit rescheduling
is performed using cond_resched() after MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT(25)
messages.
This implementation on SMP systems leads to an subscriber refcnt
error as described below:
When a worker thread yields by calling cond_resched() in a SMP
system, a new worker is created on another CPU to process the
pending workitem. Sometimes the sleeping thread wakes up before
the new thread finishes execution.
This breaks the assumption on ordering and being single threaded.
The fault is more frequent when MAX_RECV_MSG_COUNT is lowered.
If the first thread was processing subscription create and the
second thread processing close(), the close request will free
the subscriber and the create request oops as follows:

GRO Fixed IPv4 ID support and GSO partial support
This patch series sets up a few different things.
First it adds support for GRO of frames with a fixed IP ID value. This
will allow us to perform GRO for frames that go through things like an IPv6
to IPv4 header translation.
The second item we add is support for segmenting frames that are generated
this way. Most devices only support an incrementing IP ID value, and in
the case of TCP the IP ID can be ignored in many cases since the DF bit
should be set. So we can technically segment these frames using existing
TSO if we are willing to allow the IP ID to be mangled. As such I have
added a matching feature for the new form of GRO/GSO called TCP IPv4 ID
mangling. With this enabled we can assemble and disassemble a frame with
the sequence number fixed and the only ill effect will be that the IPv4 ID
will be altered which may or may not have any noticeable effect. As such I
have defaulted the feature to disabled.
The third item this patch series adds is support for partial GSO
segmentation. Partial GSO segmentation allows us to split a large frame
into two pieces. The first piece will have an even multiple of MSS worth
of data and the headers before the one pointed to by csum_start will have
been updated so that they are correct for if the data payload had already
been segmented. By doing this we can do things such as precompute the
outer header checksums for a frame to be segmented allowing us to perform
TSO on devices that don't support tunneling, or tunneling with outer header
checksums.
This patch set is based on the net-next tree, but I included "net: remove
netdevice gso_min_segs" in my tree as I assume it is likely to be applied
before this patch set will and I wanted to avoid a merge conflict.
v2: Fixed items reported by Jesse Gross
fixed missing GSO flag in MPLS check
adding DF check for MANGLEID
Moved extra GSO feature checks into gso_features_check
Rebased batches to account for "net: remove netdevice gso_min_segs"
Driver patches from the first patch set should still be compatible. However
I do have a few changes in them so I will submit a v2 of those to Jeff
Kirsher once these patches are accepted into net-next.

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial.
The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for
segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only
really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming
is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers,
and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware.
With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the
following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload:
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM
NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP
NETIF_F_GSO_SIT
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM
In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to
extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the
hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

This patch does two things.
First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field. As
a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from
IPv6 to IPv4. In addition this allows us more flexibility for future
implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when
segmenting the flow.
The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4
ID header in the case of tunneled frames. Specifically it forces the IP ID
to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header.
This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could
possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then
resegmented via GSO.

This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID
field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP
flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4
headers.
In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with
IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the
option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed
IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful
in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID
value is maintained.

devlink + mlxsw: add support for config and control of shared buffers
ASICs implement shared buffer for packet forwarding purposes and enable
flexible partitioning of the shared buffer for different flows and ports,
enabling non-blocking progress of different flows as well as separation
of lossy traffic from loss-less traffic when using Per-Priority Flow
Control (PFC). The shared buffer optimizes the buffer utilization for better
absorption of packet bursts.
This patchset implements API which is based on the model SAI uses. That is
aligned with multiple ASIC vendors so this API should be vendor neutral.

This test covers all the attributes that brctl and sysfs support to set.

Now when we change the attributes of bridge or br_port by netlink,
a relevant netlink notification will be sent, but if we change them
by ioctl or sysfs, no notification will be sent.
We should ensure that whenever those attributes change internally or from
sysfs/ioctl, that a netlink notification is sent out to listeners.
Also, NetworkManager will use this in the future to listen for out-of-band
bridge master attribute updates and incorporate them into the runtime
configuration.
This patch is used for ioctl.

This patch is used for br_sysfs_if, and we also move br_ifinfo_notify out
of store_flag.

This patch is used for br_sysfs_br. and we also need to remove some
rtnl_trylock in old functions so that we can call it in a common one.
For group_addr_store, we cannot make it use store_bridge_parm, because
it's not a string-to-long convert, we will add notification on it
individually.

There are some repetitive codes in stp_state_store, we can remove
them by calling store_bridge_parm.
