Typically, each TC filter has its own action. All the actions of the
same type are saved in its hash table. But the hash buckets are too
small that it degrades to a list. And the performance is greatly
affected. For example, it takes about 0m11.914s to insert 64K rules.
If we convert the hash table to IDR, it only takes about 0m1.500s.
The improvement is huge.
But please note that the test result is based on previous patch that
cls_flower uses IDR.

Currently, all filters with the same priority are linked in a doubly
linked list. Every filter should have a unique handle. To make the
handle unique, we need to iterate the list every time to see if the
handle exists or not when inserting a new filter. It is time-consuming.
For example, it takes about 5m3.169s to insert 64K rules.
This patch changes cls_flower to use IDR. With this patch, it
takes about 0m1.127s to insert 64K rules. The improvement is huge.
But please note that in this testing, all filters share the same action.
If every filter has a unique action, that is another bottleneck.
Follow-up patch in this patchset addresses that.

This reverts commit 45f119bf93.
Eric Dumazet says:
We found at Google a significant regression caused by
45f119bf93 tcp: remove header prediction
In typical RPC (TCP_RR), when a TCP socket receives data, we now call
tcp_ack() while we used to not call it.
This touches enough cache lines to cause a slowdown.
so problem does not seem to be HP removal itself but the tcp_ack()
call. Therefore, it might be possible to remove HP after all, provided
one finds a way to elide tcp_ack for most cases.

Florian reported UDP xmit drops that could be root caused to the
too small neigh limit.
Current limit is 64 KB, meaning that even a single UDP socket would hit
it, since its default sk_sndbuf comes from net.core.wmem_default
(~212992 bytes on 64bit arches).
Once ARP/ND resolution is in progress, we should allow a little more
packets to be queued, at least for one producer.
Once neigh arp_queue is filled, a rogue socket should hit its sk_sndbuf
limit and either block in sendmsg() or return -EAGAIN.

Creating as specific xdp_redirect_map variant of the xdp tracepoints

There is a need to separate the xdp_redirect tracepoint into two
tracepoints, for separating the error case from the normal forward
case.
Due to the extreme speeds XDP is operating at, loading a tracepoint
have a measurable impact. Single core XDP REDIRECT (ethtool tuned
rx-usecs 25) can do 13.7 Mpps forwarding, but loading a simple
bpf_prog at the tracepoint (with a return 0) reduce perf to 10.2 Mpps
(CPU E5-1650 v4 @ 3.60GHz, driver: ixgbe)
The overhead of loading a bpf-based tracepoint can be calculated to
cost 25 nanosec ((1/13782002-1/10267937)*10^9 = -24.83 ns).
Using perf record on the tracepoint event, with a non-matching --filter
expression, the overhead is much larger. Performance drops to 8.3 Mpps,
cost 48 nanosec ((1/13782002-1/8312497)*10^9 = -47.74))
Having a separate tracepoint for err cases, which should be less
frequent, allow running a continuous monitor for errors while not
affecting the redirect forward performance (this have also been
verified by measurements).

To make sense of the map index, the tracepoint user also need to know
that map we are talking about. Supply the map pointer but only expose
the map->id.
The 'to_index' is renamed 'to_ifindex'. In the xdp_redirect_map case,
this is the result of the devmap lookup. The map lookup key is exposed
as map_index, which is needed to troubleshoot in case the lookup failed.
The 'to_ifindex' is placed after 'err' to keep TP_STRUCT as common as
possible.
This also keeps the TP_STRUCT similar enough, that userspace can write
a monitor program, that doesn't need to care about whether
bpf_redirect or bpf_redirect_map were used.

Supplying the action argument XDP_REDIRECT to the tracepoint xdp_redirect

David Howells says:
====================
rxrpc: Miscellany
Here are a number of patches that make some changes/fixes and add a couple
of extensions to AF_RXRPC for kernel services to use. The changes and
fixes are:
(1) Use time64_t rather than u32 outside of protocol or
UAPI-representative structures.
(2) Use the correct time stamp when loading a key from an XDR-encoded
Kerberos 5 key.
(3) Fix IPv6 support.
(4) Fix some places where the error code is being incorrectly made
positive before returning.
(5) Remove some white space.
And the extensions:
(6) Add an end-of-Tx phase notification, thereby allowing kAFS to
transition the state on its own call record at the correct point,
rather than having to do it in advance and risk non-completion of the
call in the wrong state.
(7) Allow a kernel client call to be retried if it fails on a network
error, thereby making it possible for kAFS to iterate over a number of
IP addresses without having to reload the Tx queue and re-encrypt data
each time.

Allow a client call that failed on network error to be retried, provided
that the Tx queue still holds DATA packet 1. This allows an operation to
be submitted to another server or another address for the same server
without having to repackage and re-encrypt the data so far processed.
Two new functions are provided:
(1) rxrpc_kernel_check_call() - This is used to find out the completion
state of a call to guess whether it can be retried and whether it
should be retried.
(2) rxrpc_kernel_retry_call() - Disconnect the call from its current
connection, reset the state and submit it as a new client call to a
new address. The new address need not match the previous address.
A call may be retried even if all the data hasn't been loaded into it yet;
a partially constructed will be retained at the same point it was at when
an error condition was detected. msg_data_left() can be used to find out
how much data was packaged before the error occurred.

Add a callback to rxrpc_kernel_send_data() so that a kernel service can get
a notification that the AF_RXRPC call has transitioned out the Tx phase and
is now waiting for a reply or a final ACK.
This is called from AF_RXRPC with the call state lock held so the
notification is guaranteed to come before any reply is passed back.
Further, modify the AFS filesystem to make use of this so that we don't have
to change the afs_call state before sending the last bit of data.

Fix IPv6 support in AF_RXRPC in the following ways:
(1) When extracting the address from a received IPv4 packet, if the local
transport socket is open for IPv6 then fill out the sockaddr_rxrpc
struct for an IPv4-mapped-to-IPv6 AF_INET6 transport address instead
of an AF_INET one.
(2) When sending CHALLENGE or RESPONSE packets, the transport length needs
to be set from the sockaddr_rxrpc::transport_len field rather than
sizeof() on the IPv4 transport address.
(3) When processing an IPv4 ICMP packet received by an IPv6 socket, set up
the address correctly before searching for the affected peer.

It is ugly to hide a u32-filter-specific pointer inside Qdisc,
this breaks the TC layers:
1. Qdisc is a generic representation, should not have any specific
data of any type
2. Qdisc layer is above filter layer, should only save filters in
the list of struct tcf_proto.
This pointer is used as the head of the chain of u32 hash tables,
that is struct tc_u_hnode, because u32 filter is very special,
it allows to create multiple hash tables within one qdisc and
across multiple u32 filters.
Instead of using this ugly pointer, we can just save it in a global
hash table key'ed by (dev ifindex, qdisc handle), therefore we can
still treat it as a per qdisc basis data structure conceptually.
Of course, because of network namespaces, this key is not unique
at all, but it is fine as we already have a pointer to Qdisc in
struct tc_u_common, we can just compare the pointers when collision.
And this only affects slow paths, has no impact to fast path,
thanks to the pointer ->tp_c.

For TC classes, their ->get() and ->put() are always paired, and the
reference counting is completely useless, because:
1) For class modification and dumping paths, we already hold RTNL lock,
so all of these ->get(),->change(),->put() are atomic.
2) For filter bindiing/unbinding, we use other reference counter than
this one, and they should have RTNL lock too.
3) For ->qlen_notify(), it is special because it is called on ->enqueue()
path, but we already hold qdisc tree lock there, and we hold this
tree lock when graft or delete the class too, so it should not be gone
or changed until we release the tree lock.
Therefore, this patch removes ->get() and ->put(), but:
1) Adds a new ->find() to find the pointer to a class by classid, no
refcnt.
2) Move the original class destroy upon the last refcnt into ->delete(),
right after releasing tree lock. This is fine because the class is
already removed from hash when holding the lock.
For those who also use ->put() as ->unbind(), just rename them to reflect
this change.

locally generated packets). The resulting packet looks like IPv6 -> SRH ->
Ethernet -> original L3 payload. The next header field of the SRH is set to
NEXTHDR_NONE.

Usage example:
ip route add 1.2.3.4 encap seg6 mode encap segs fc00::1,fc00::2 dev eth0

Allow our callers to influence the choice of ECMP link by honoring the
hash passed together with the flow info. This allows for special
treatment of ICMP errors which we would like to route over the same path
as the IPv6 datagram that triggered the error.
Also go through rt6_multipath_hash(), in the usual case when we aren't
dealing with an ICMP error, so that there is one central place where
multipath hash is computed.

Commit 644d0e6569 ("ipv6 Use get_hash_from_flowi6 for rt6 hash") has
turned rt6_info_hash_nhsfn() into a one-liner, so it no longer makes
sense to keep it around. Also remove the accompanying comment that has
become outdated.

When forwarding or sending out an ICMPv6 error, look at the embedded
packet that triggered the error and compute a flow hash over its
headers.
This let's us route the ICMP error together with the flow it belongs to
when multipath (ECMP) routing is in use, which in turn makes Path MTU
Discovery work in ECMP load-balanced or anycast setups (RFC 7690).
Granted, end-hosts behind the ECMP router (aka servers) need to reflect
the IPv6 Flow Label for PMTUD to work.
The code is organized to be in parallel with ipv4 stack:
ip_multipath_l3_keys -> ip6_multipath_l3_keys
fib_multipath_hash -> rt6_multipath_hash

Reflecting IPv6 Flow Label at server nodes is useful in environments
that employ multipath routing to load balance the requests. As "IPv6
Flow Label Reflection" standard draft [1] points out - ICMPv6 PTB error
messages generated in response to a downstream packets from the server
can be routed by a load balancer back to the original server without
looking at transport headers, if the server applies the flow label
reflection. This enables the Path MTU Discovery past the ECMP router in
load-balance or anycast environments where each server node is reachable
by only one path.
Introduce a sysctl to enable flow label reflection per net namespace for
all newly created sockets. Same could be earlier achieved only per
socket by setting the IPV6_FL_F_REFLECT flag for the IPV6_FLOWLABEL_MGR
socket option.
