In order to facilitate development for netlink protocol dissector,
fill the unused field skb->pkt_type of the cloned skb with a hint
of the address space of the new owner (receiver) socket in the
notion of "to kernel" resp. "to user".
At the time we invoke __netlink_deliver_tap_skb(), we already have
set the new skb owner via netlink_skb_set_owner_r(), so we can use
that for netlink_is_kernel() probing.
In normal PF_PACKET network traffic, this field denotes if the
packet is destined for us (PACKET_HOST), if it's broadcast
(PACKET_BROADCAST), etc.
As we only have 3 bit reserved, we can use the value (= 6) of
PACKET_FASTROUTE as it's _not used_ anywhere in the whole kernel
and not supported anywhere, and packets of such type were never
exposed to user space, so there are no overlapping users of such
kind. Thus, as wished, that seems the only way to make both
PACKET_* values non-overlapping and therefore device agnostic.
By using those two flags for netlink skbs on nlmon devices, they
can be made available and picked up via sll_pkttype (previously
unused in netlink context) in struct sockaddr_ll. We now have
these two directions:
- PACKET_USER (= 6) -> to user space
- PACKET_KERNEL (= 7) -> to kernel space
Partial `ip a` example strace for sa_family=AF_NETLINK with
detected nl msg direction:
syscall: direction:
sendto(3, ...) = 40 /* to kernel */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 3404 /* to user */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 1120 /* to user */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 20 /* to user */
sendto(3, ...) = 40 /* to kernel */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 168 /* to user */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 144 /* to user */
recvmsg(3, ...) = 20 /* to user */

When we set burst to 1514 with low rate in userspace,
the kernel get a value of burst that less than 1514,
which doesn't work.
Because it may make some loss when transform burst
to buffer in userspace. This makes burst lose some
bytes, when the kernel transform the buffer back to
burst.
This patch adds two new attributes to support sending
burst/mtu to kernel directly to avoid the loss.

This patch implements the first size-based qdisc that attempts to
differentiate between small flows and heavy-hitters. The goal is to
catch the heavy-hitters and move them to a separate queue with less
priority so that bulk traffic does not affect the latency of critical
traffic. Currently "less priority" means less weight (2:1 in
particular) in a Weighted Deficit Round Robin (WDRR) scheduler.
In essence, this patch addresses the "delay-bloat" problem due to
bloated buffers. In some systems, large queues may be necessary for
obtaining CPU efficiency, or due to the presence of unresponsive
traffic like UDP, or just a large number of connections with each
having a small amount of outstanding traffic. In these circumstances,
HHF aims to reduce the HoL blocking for latency sensitive traffic,
while not impacting the queues built up by bulk traffic. HHF can also
be used in conjunction with other AQM mechanisms such as CoDel.
To capture heavy-hitters, we implement the "multi-stage filter" design
in the following paper:
C. Estan and G. Varghese, "New Directions in Traffic Measurement and
Accounting", in ACM SIGCOMM, 2002.
Some configurable qdisc settings through 'tc':
- hhf_reset_timeout: period to reset counter values in the multi-stage
filter (default 40ms)
- hhf_admit_bytes: threshold to classify heavy-hitters
(default 128KB)
- hhf_evict_timeout: threshold to evict idle heavy-hitters
(default 1s)
- hhf_non_hh_weight: Weighted Deficit Round Robin (WDRR) weight for
non-heavy-hitters (default 2)
- hh_flows_limit: max number of heavy-hitter flow entries
(default 2048)
Note that the ratio between hhf_admit_bytes and hhf_reset_timeout
reflects the bandwidth of heavy-hitters that we attempt to capture
(25Mbps with the above default settings).
The false negative rate (heavy-hitter flows getting away unclassified)
is zero by the design of the multi-stage filter algorithm.
With 100 heavy-hitter flows, using four hashes and 4000 counters yields
a false positive rate (non-heavy-hitters mistakenly classified as
heavy-hitters) of less than 1e-4.

This patch introduces a PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS socket option, that
allows for using a similar xmit() function as in pktgen instead
of taking the dev_queue_xmit() path. This can be very useful when
PF_PACKET applications are required to be used in a similar
scenario as pktgen, but with full, flexible packet payload that
needs to be provided, for example.
On default, nothing changes in behaviour for normal PF_PACKET
TX users, so everything stays as is for applications. New users,
however, can now set PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS if needed to prevent
own packets from i) reentering packet_rcv() and ii) to directly
push the frame to the driver.
In doing so we can increase pps (here 64 byte packets) for
PF_PACKET a bit:
# CPUs -- QDISC_BYPASS -- qdisc path -- qdisc path[**]
1 CPU == 1,509,628 pps -- 1,208,708 -- 1,247,436
2 CPUs == 3,198,659 pps -- 2,536,012 -- 1,605,779
3 CPUs == 4,787,992 pps -- 3,788,740 -- 1,735,610

[**]: qdisc path with packet_rcv(), how probably most people
seem to use it (hopefully not anymore if not needed)
The test was done using a modified trafgen, sending a simple
static 64 bytes packet, on all CPUs. The trick in the fast
"qdisc path" case, is to avoid reentering packet_rcv() by
setting the RAW socket protocol to zero, like:
socket(PF_PACKET, SOCK_RAW, 0);
Tradeoffs are documented as well in this patch, clearly, if
queues are busy, we will drop more packets, tc disciplines are
ignored, and these packets are not visible to taps anymore. For
a pktgen like scenario, we argue that this is acceptable.
The pointer to the xmit function has been placed in packet
socket structure hole between cached_dev and prot_hook that
is hot anyway as we're working on cached_dev in each send path.

With the introduction of TCP Small Queues, TSO auto sizing, and TCP
pacing, we can implement Automatic Corking in the kernel, to help
applications doing small write()/sendmsg() to TCP sockets.
Idea is to change tcp_push() to check if the current skb payload is
under skb optimal size (a multiple of MSS bytes)
If under 'size_goal', and at least one packet is still in Qdisc or
NIC TX queues, set the TCP Small Queue Throttled bit, so that the push
will be delayed up to TX completion time.
This delay might allow the application to coalesce more bytes
in the skb in following write()/sendmsg()/sendfile() system calls.
The exact duration of the delay is depending on the dynamics
of the system, and might be zero if no packet for this flow
is actually held in Qdisc or NIC TX ring.
Using FQ/pacing is a way to increase the probability of
autocorking being triggered.
Add a new sysctl (/proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_autocorking) to control
this feature and default it to 1 (enabled)
Add a new SNMP counter : nstat -a | grep TcpExtTCPAutoCorking
This counter is incremented every time we detected skb was under used
and its flush was deferred.
Tested:
Interesting effects when using line buffered commands under ssh.
Excellent performance results in term of cpu usage and total throughput.

SIOCGHWTSTAMP ioctl
1. Add the SIOCGHWTSTAMP ioctl and update the timestamping
documentation.
2. Implement SIOCGHWTSTAMP in most drivers that support SIOCSHWTSTAMP.
3. Add a test program to exercise SIOC{G,S}HWTSTAMP.

Some devices, such as new Intuos series tablets, have a hardware switch to
turn touch data on/off. To report the state, SW_MUTE_DEVICE is added
in include/uapi/linux/input.h.

Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Here is a pile of bug fixes that accumulated while I was in Europe"
1) In fixing kernel leaks to userspace during copying of socket
addresses, we broke a case that used to work, namely the user
providing a buffer larger than the in-kernel generic socket address
structure. This broke Ruby amongst other things. Fix from Dan
Carpenter.
2) Fix regression added by byte queue limit support in 8139cp driver,
from Yang Yingliang.
3) The addition of MSG_SENDPAGE_NOTLAST buggered up a few sendpage
implementations, they should just treat it the same as MSG_MORE.
Fix from Richard Weinberger and Shawn Landden.
4) Handle icmpv4 errors received on ipv6 SIT tunnels correctly, from
Oussama Ghorbel. In particular we should send an ICMPv6 unreachable
in such situations.
5) Fix some regressions in the recent genetlink fixes, in particular
get the pmcraid driver to use the new safer interfaces correctly.
From Johannes Berg.
6) macvtap was converted to use a per-cpu set of statistics, but some
code was still bumping tx_dropped elsewhere. From Jason Wang.
7) Fix build failure of xen-netback due to missing include on some
architectures, from Andy Whitecroft.
8) macvtap double counts received packets in statistics, fix from Vlad
Yasevich.
9) Fix various cases of using *_STATS_BH() when *_STATS() is more
appropriate. From Eric Dumazet and Hannes Frederic Sowa.
10) Pktgen ipsec mode doesn't update the ipv4 header length and checksum
properly after encapsulation. Fix from Fan Du.
* git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (61 commits)
net/mlx4_en: Remove selftest TX queues empty condition
{pktgen, xfrm} Update IPv4 header total len and checksum after tranformation
virtio_net: make all RX paths handle erors consistently
virtio_net: fix error handling for mergeable buffers
virtio_net: Fixed a trivial typo (fitler --> filter)
netem: fix gemodel loss generator
netem: fix loss 4 state model
netem: missing break in ge loss generator
net/hsr: Support iproute print_opt ('ip -details ...')
net/hsr: Very small fix of comment style.
MAINTAINERS: Added net/hsr/ maintainer
ipv6: fix possible seqlock deadlock in ip6_finish_output2
ixgbe: Make ixgbe_identify_qsfp_module_generic static
ixgbe: turn NETIF_F_HW_L2FW_DOFFLOAD off by default
ixgbe: ixgbe_fwd_ring_down needs to be static
e1000: fix possible reset_task running after adapter down
e1000: fix lockdep warning in e1000_reset_task
e1000: prevent oops when adapter is being closed and reset simultaneously
igb: Fixed Wake On LAN support

nla_put_flag needs a real nl80211 attribute id, not a wiphy flag bit.
While at it, split 5 and 10 MHz capability flags in case we ever need
to support hardware that can only do one of the two.
Also move the flag settings to the split-only information so we don't
increase the space needed for old userspace.
