Current struct pernet_operations exit() handlers are highly
discouraged to call synchronize_rcu().
There are cases where we need them, and exit_batch() does
not help the common case where a single netns is dismantled.
This patch leverages the existing synchronize_rcu() call
in cleanup_net()
Calling optional ->pre_exit() method before ->exit() or
->exit_batch() allows to benefit from a single synchronize_rcu()
call.
Note that the synchronize_rcu() calls added in this patch
are only in error paths or slow paths.

xdp: page_pool fixes and in-flight accounting
This patchset fix page_pool API and users, such that drivers can use it for
DMA-mapping. A number of places exist, where the DMA-mapping would not get
released/unmapped, all these are fixed. This occurs e.g. when an xdp_frame
gets converted to an SKB. As network stack doesn't have any callback for XDP
memory models.
The patchset also address a shutdown race-condition. Today removing a XDP
memory model, based on page_pool, is only delayed one RCU grace period. This
isn't enough as redirected xdp_frames can still be in-flight on different
queues (remote driver TX, cpumap or veth).
We stress that when drivers use page_pool for DMA-mapping, then they MUST
use one packet per page. This might change in the future, but more work lies
ahead, before we can lift this restriction.
This patchset change the page_pool API to be more strict, as in-flight page
accounting is added.

If bugs exists or are introduced later e.g. by drivers misusing the API,
then we want to warn about the issue, such that developer notice. This patch
will generate a bit of noise in form of periodic pr_warn every 30 seconds.
It is not nice to have this stall warning running forever. Thus, this patch
will (after 120 attempts) force disconnect the mem id (from the rhashtable)
and free the page_pool object. This will cause fallback to the put_page() as
before, which only potentially leak DMA-mappings, if objects are really
stuck for this long. In that unlikely case, a WARN_ONCE should show us the
call stack.

This patch is needed before we can allow drivers to use page_pool for
DMA-mappings. Today with page_pool and XDP return API, it is possible to
remove the page_pool object (from rhashtable), while there are still
in-flight packet-pages. This is safely handled via RCU and failed lookups in
__xdp_return() fallback to call put_page(), when page_pool object is gone.
In-case page is still DMA mapped, this will result in page note getting
correctly DMA unmapped.
To solve this, the page_pool is extended with tracking in-flight pages. And
XDP disconnect system queries page_pool and waits, via workqueue, for all
in-flight pages to be returned.
To avoid killing performance when tracking in-flight pages, the implement
use two (unsigned) counters, that in placed on different cache-lines, and
can be used to deduct in-flight packets. This is done by mapping the
unsigned "sequence" counters onto signed Two's complement arithmetic
operations. This is e.g. used by kernel's time_after macros, described in
kernel commit 1ba3aab303 and 5a581b367b, and also explained in RFC1982.
The trick is these two incrementing counters only need to be read and
compared, when checking if it's safe to free the page_pool structure. Which
will only happen when driver have disconnected RX/alloc side. Thus, on a
non-fast-path.
It is chosen that page_pool tracking is also enabled for the non-DMA
use-case, as this can be used for statistics later.
After this patch, using page_pool requires more strict resource "release",
e.g. via page_pool_release_page() that was introduced in this patchset, and
previous patches implement/fix this more strict requirement.
Drivers no-longer call page_pool_destroy(). Drivers already call
xdp_rxq_info_unreg() which call xdp_rxq_info_unreg_mem_model(), which will
attempt to disconnect the mem id, and if attempt fails schedule the
disconnect for later via delayed workqueue.

net: mvpp2: cls: Allow steering based on vlan tag
The PPv2 classifier can perform flow steering based on keys extracted
from the VLAN tag. This series adds support for using the vlan id and
the vlan prio as keys, using the ethtool interface.
Patch 1 is a preparatory patch that prevent false-positive matches,
using a dedicated lookup id for the RSS C2 lookup.
Patch 2 allows to separate the flows based on the header fields they
contain. The main goal is to be able to separate tagged traffic from
untagged traffic for flow steering, just as we already do for RSS.
Patch 3 solves an issue we have when extracting fields that aren't full
bytes, such as the vlan tag which is 12 bits wide, or the priority which
is 3 bits wide.
Finally, patch 4 adds support for steering based on both vlan id and
priority, extracted from the outermost tag.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
This commit allows using the vlan Id and priority as parts of the key
for classification offload. These fields are extracted from the
outermost tag, if multiple tags are present.
Vlan Id and priority are considered as 2 different fields by the
classifier, however the fields are both appended in the Header Extracted
Key in the same layout as they are found in the tags. This means that
when steering only based on the prio, a 16-bit slot is still taken in
the HEK.
The classifier doesn't allow extracting the DEI bit from the tag, so we
explicitly prevent user from using this bit in the key.
This commit adds the vlan priotity as a compatible HEK field for
tagged traffic, meaning that we limit the possibility of extracting this
field only to the flows that contain tagged traffic.

The C2 TCAM used for classification uses a key (Header Extracted Key)
built by concatenating several fields extracted from the packet header.
After a lot of trial-and-error and some guess work, it seems the HEK is
right justified, with the first fields being stored in the MSB, then
concatenated up until the LSB.
Until now, this doesn't cause any issue since all HEK fields we use are
full bytes. However this is an issue for the upcoming VLAN id and pri
extraction, which aren't full bytes.
Rework the way we built that TCAM key, by changing the order in which we
append the fields.

classifying on VLAN tag can only be done on flows used for tagged
traffic.

When performing a TCAM lookup in the C2 engine, it's possible that
multiple entries match the packet. To make sure the correct entry match
when performing a lookup, the Flow Table can set a lookup type, which
will be used in the TCAM lookup, thus preventing such false-positives.
We need to make sure the RSS match doesn't interfere with other
classification lookups, hence we use a dedicated lookup_type for it.

====================
mlxsw: Improve IPv6 route insertion rate
Unlike IPv4, an IPv6 multipath route in the kernel is composed from
multiple sibling routes, each representing a single nexthop.
Therefore, an addition of a multipath route with N nexthops translates
to N in-kernel notifications. This is inefficient for device drivers
that need to program the route to the underlying device. Each time a new
nexthop is appended, a new nexthop group needs to be constructed and the
old one deleted.
This patchset improves the situation by sending a single notification
for a multipath route addition / deletion instead of one per-nexthop.
When adding thousands of multipath routes with 16 nexthops, I measured
an improvement of about x10 in the insertion rate.
Patches #1-#3 add a flag that indicates that in-kernel notifications
need to be suppressed and extend the IPv6 FIB notification info with
information about the number of sibling routes that are being notified.
Patches #4-#5 adjust the two current listeners to these notifications to
ignore notifications about IPv6 multipath routes.
Patches #6-#7 adds add / delete notifications for IPv6 multipath routes.
Patches #8-#14 do the same for mlxsw.
Patch #15 finally removes the limitations added in patches #4-#5 and
stops the kernel from sending a notification for each added / deleted
nexthop.
Patch #16 adds test cases.
v2 (David Ahern):
* Remove patch adjusting netdevsim to consume resources for each
fib6_info. Instead, consume one resource for the entire multipath
route
* Remove 'multipath_rt' usage in patch #10
* Remove 'multipath_rt' from 'struct fib6_entry_notifier_info' in patch
#15. The member is only removed in this patch to prevent drivers from
processing multipath routes twice during the series
