tcp: exponential backoff in tcp_send_ack()
We had outages caused by repeated skb allocation failures in tcp_send_ack()
It is time to add exponential backoff to reduce number of attempts.
Before doing so, first patch removes icsk_ack.blocked to make
room for a new field (icsk_ack.retry)

Whenever host is under very high memory pressure,
__tcp_send_ack() skb allocation fails, and we setup
a 200 ms (TCP_DELACK_MAX) timer before retrying.
On hosts with high number of TCP sockets, we can spend
considerable amount of cpu cycles in these attempts,
add high pressure on various spinlocks in mm-layer,
ultimately blocking threads attempting to free space
from making any progress.
This patch adds standard exponential backoff to avoid
adding fuel to the fire.

mlxsw: PFC and headroom selftests
Recent changes in the headroom management code made it clear that an
automated way of testing this functionality is needed. This patchset brings
two tests: a synthetic headroom behavior test, which verifies mechanics of
headroom management. And a PFC test, which verifies whether this behavior
actually translates into a working lossless configuration.
Both of these tests rely on mlnx_qos[1], a tool that interfaces with Linux
DCB API. The tool was originally written to work with Mellanox NICs, but
does not actually rely on anything Mellanox-specific, and can be used for
mlxsw as well as for any other NIC-like driver. Unlike Open LLDP it does
support buffer commands and permits a fire-and-forget approach to
configuration, which makes it very handy for writing of selftests.
Patches #1-#3 extend the selftest devlink_lib.sh in various ways. Patch #4
then adds a helper wrapper for mlnx_qos to mlxsw's qos_lib.sh.
Patch #5 adds a test for management of port headroom.
Patch #6 adds a PFC test.

Changing pool type from static to dynamic causes reinterpretation of
threshold values. They therefore need to be saved before pool type is
changed, then the pool type can be changed, and then the new values need
to be set up.
For that reason, set cannot subsume save, because it would be saving the
wrong thing, with possibly a nonsensical value, and restore would then fail
to restore the nonsensical value.
Thus extract a _save() from each of the relevant _set()'s. This way it is

HW support for VCAP IS1 and ES0 in mscc_ocelot
The patches from RFC series "Offload tc-flower to mscc_ocelot switch
using VCAP chains" have been split into 2:
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/list/?series=204810&state=*
This is the boring part, that deals with the prerequisites, and not with
tc-flower integration. Apart from the initialization of some hardware
blocks, which at this point still don't do anything, no new
functionality is introduced.
- Key and action field offsets are defined for the supported switches.
- VCAP properties are added to the driver for the new TCAM blocks. But
instead of adding them manually as was done for IS2, which is error
prone, the driver is refactored to read these parameters from
hardware, which is possible.
- Some improvements regarding the processing of struct ocelot_vcap_filter.
- Extending the code to be compatible with full and quarter keys.
This series was tested, along with other patches not yet submitted, on
the Felix and Seville switches.

Currently a new filter is created, containing just enough correct

on it.
This will be limiting us in the future, when we'll have more metadata
associated with a filter, which will matter in the stats() and destroy()
callbacks, and which we can't make up on the spot. For example, we'll
start "offloading" some dummy tc filter entries for the TCAM skeleton,
but we won't actually be adding them to the hardware, or to block->rules.

In fact, I'm pretty sure these 2 numbers can never be different from one
another. By hardware definition, the entry (key) TCAM rows are divided
into the same number of sub-words as its associated action RAM rows.
But nonetheless, let's at least rename the variables such that

In the Ocelot switches there are 3 TCAMs: VCAP ES0, IS1 and IS2, which
have the same configuration interface, but different sets of keys and
actions. The driver currently only supports VCAP IS2.
In preparation of VCAP IS1 and ES0 support, the existing code must be
generalized to work with any VCAP.
In that direction, we should move the structures that depend upon VCAP
instantiation, like vcap_is2_keys and vcap_is2_actions, out of struct
ocelot and into struct vcap_props .keys and .actions, a structure that
is replicated 3 times, once per VCAP. We'll pass that structure as an
argument to each function that does the key and action packing - only
the control logic needs to distinguish between ocelot->vcap[VCAP_IS2]
or IS1 or ES0.
Another change is to make use of the newly introduced ocelot_target_read
and ocelot_target_write API, since the 3 VCAPs have the same registers
but put at different addresses.

Although it doesn't look like it is possible to hit these conditions
from user space, there are 2 separate, but related, issues.
First, the ocelot_vcap_block_get_filter_index function, née
ocelot_ace_rule_get_index_id prior to the aae4e500e1 ("net: mscc:
ocelot: generalize the "ACE/ACL" names") rename, does not do what the
author probably intended. If the desired filter entry is not present in
the ACL block, this function returns an index equal to the total number
of filters, instead of -1, which is maybe what was intended, judging
from the curious initialization with -1, and the "++index" idioms.
Either way, none of the callers seems to expect this behavior.
Second issue, the callers don't actually check the return value at all.
So in case the filter is not found in the rule list, propagate the
return code.
So update the callers and also take the opportunity to get rid of the
odd coding idioms that appear to work but don't.

There are some targets (register blocks) in the Ocelot switch that are
instantiated more than once. For example, the VCAP IS1, IS2 and ES0
blocks all share the same register layout for interacting with the cache
for the TCAM and the action RAM.
For the VCAPs, the procedure for servicing them is actually common. We
just need an API specifying which VCAP we are talking to, and we do that
via these raw ocelot_target_read and ocelot_target_write accessors.
In plain ocelot_read, the target is encoded into the register enum
itself:
u16 target = reg >> TARGET_OFFSET;
For the VCAPs, the registers are currently defined like this:
enum ocelot_reg {
[...]
S2_CORE_UPDATE_CTRL = S2 << TARGET_OFFSET,
S2_CORE_MV_CFG,
S2_CACHE_ENTRY_DAT,
S2_CACHE_MASK_DAT,
S2_CACHE_ACTION_DAT,
S2_CACHE_CNT_DAT,
S2_CACHE_TG_DAT,
[...]
};
which is precisely what we want to avoid, because we'd have to duplicate
the same register map for S1 and for S0, and then figure out how to pass
VCAP instance-specific registers to the ocelot_read calls (basically
another lookup table that undoes the effect of shifting with
TARGET_OFFSET).
So for some targets, propose a more raw API, similar to what is
currently done with ocelot_port_readl and ocelot_port_writel. Those
targets can only be accessed with ocelot_target_{read,write} and not
with ocelot_{read,write} after the conversion, which is fine.
The VCAP registers are not actually modified to use this new API as of
this patch. They will be modified in the next one.

Linus clearly requested that code in drivers and libraries which changes
behaviour based on execution context should either be split up so that
e.g. task context invocations and BH invocations have different interfaces
or if that's not possible the context information has to be provided by the
caller which knows in which context it is executing.
This includes conditional locking, allocation mode (GFP_*) decisions and
avoidance of code paths which might sleep.
In the long run, usage of 'preemptible, in_*irq etc.' should be banned from
driver code completely.

rtl_lps_enter() and rtl_lps_leave() are using in_interrupt() to detect
whether it is safe to acquire a mutex or if it is required to defer to a
workqueue.
The usage of in_interrupt() in drivers is phased out and Linus clearly
requested that code which changes behaviour depending on context should
either be seperated or the context be conveyed in an argument passed by the

in_interrupt() also is only partially correct because it fails to chose the
correct code path when just preemption or interrupts are disabled.
Add an argument 'may_block' to both functions and adjust the callers to
pass the context information.
The following call chains were analyzed to be safe to block:
rtl_watchdog_wq_callback()
rlf_lps_leave/enter()
rtl_op_suspend()
rtl_lps_leave()
rtl_op_bss_info_changed()
rtl_lps_leave()
rtl_op_sw_scan_start()

_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt()
rtl_lps_leave()
_rtl_pci_interrupt()
_rtl_pci_rx_interrupt()
rtl_is_special_data()
rtl_lps_leave()

setup_special_tx()
rtl_lps_leave()
_rtl_pci_interrupt()
_rtl_pci_tx_isr
rtl_lps_leave()
halbtc_leave_lps()
rtl_lps_leave()
This leaves four callers of rtl_lps_enter/leave() where the analyzis
stopped dead in the maze of several nested pointer based callchains and
lack of rtlwifi hardware to debug this via tracing:
halbtc_leave_lps(), halbtc_enter_lps(), halbtc_normal_lps(),
halbtc_pre_normal_lps()

These home brewn printk debug aids are tedious to work with and provide

brcmf_sdio_isr() is using in_interrupt() to distinguish if it is called
from a interrupt service routine or from a worker thread.
Passing such information from the calling context is preferred and
requested by Linus, so add an argument `in_isr' to brcmf_sdio_isr() and let
the callers pass the information about the calling context.

lmc_trace() was first introduced in commit e7a392d5158af ("Import
2.3.99pre6-5") and was not touched ever since.
The reason for looking at this was to get rid of the in_interrupt() usage,
but while looking at it the following observations were made:
- At least lmc_get_stats() (->ndo_get_stats()) is invoked with disabled
preemption which is not detected by the in_interrupt() check, which
would cause schedule() to be called from invalid context.
- The code is hidden behind #ifdef LMC_TRACE which is not defined within
the kernel and wasn't at the time it was introduced.
- Three jiffies don't match 50ms. msleep() would be a better match which
would also avoid the schedule() invocation. But why have it to begin
with?
- Nobody would do something like this today. Either netdev_dbg() or
trace_printk() or a trace event would be used. If only the functions
related to this driver are interesting then ftrace can be used with
filtering.
As it is obviously broken for years, simply remove it.

The comment above nc_vendor_write() suggests that the function could become
async so that is usable in `in_interrupt()' context or that it already is
safe to be called from such a context.
Eitherway: The function did not become async since v2.4.9.2 (2002) and it
must be not be called from `in_interrupt()' context because it sleeps on
mutltiple occations.
Remove the misleading comment.

kaweth_async_set_rx_mode() invokes kaweth_contol() and has two callers:
- kaweth_open() which is invoked from preemptible context
.
- kaweth_start_xmit() which holds a spinlock and has bottom halfs disabled.
If called from kaweth_start_xmit() kaweth_async_set_rx_mode() obviously
cannot block, which means it can't call kaweth_control(). This is detected
with an in_interrupt() check.
Replace the in_interrupt() check in kaweth_async_set_rx_mode() with an
argument which is set true by the caller if the context is safe to sleep,
otherwise false.
Now kaweth_control() is only called from preemptible context which means
there is no need for GFP_ATOMIC allocations anymore. Replace it with
usb_control_msg(). Cleanup the code a bit while at it.
Finally remove kaweth_control() since the last user is gone.

kaweth_control() is almost the same as usb_control_msg() except for the
memory allocation mode (GFP_ATOMIC vs GFP_NOIO) and the in_interrupt()
check.
All the invocations of kaweth_control() are within the probe function in
fully preemtible context so there is no reason to use atomic allocations,
GFP_NOIO which is used by usb_control_msg() is perfectly fine.
Replace kaweth_control() invocations from probe with usb_control_msg().

in_interrupt() is ill defined and does not provide what the name
suggests. The usage especially in driver code is deprecated and
a tree wide effort to clean up and consolidate the (ab)usage of
in_interrupt() and related checks is happening.
handle_regs_int() is always invoked as part of URB callback which is either
invoked from hard or soft interrupt context.
Remove the magic assertion.

vxge_os_dma_malloc() and vxge_os_dma_malloc_async() are both called from
callchains which use GFP_KERNEL allocations unconditionally or have other
requirements to be called from fully preemptible task context..
vxge_os_dma_malloc():
1) __vxge_hw_blockpool_create() <- GFP_KERNEL
2) __vxge_hw_mempool_grow() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_malloc()
vxge_os_dma_malloc_async():
1 __vxge_hw_mempool_grow() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_malloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_blocks_add()
2) vxge_hw_vpath_open() <- vzalloc()
__vxge_hw_blockpool_block_allocate()
That means neither of these functions needs a conditional allocation mode.
Remove the in_interrupt() conditional and use GFP_KERNEL.

lance_interrupt() contains two pointless checks:
- A check whether the 'dev_id' argument is NULL. 'dev_id' is the pointer
which was handed in to request_irq() and the interrupt handler will
always be invoked with that pointer as 'dev_id' argument by the core
code.
- A check for interrupt reentrancy. The core code already guarantees
non-reentrancy of interrupt handlers.
Remove these check.

bigmac_init_rings() has an argument signaling if it is called from the
interrupt handler. This is used to decide between GFP_KERNEL and GFP_ATOMIC
for memory allocations.
But it also checks in_interrupt() to handle invocations which come from the
timer callback bigmac_timer() via bigmac_hw_init(), which is invoked with
'in_irq = 0'. While the timer callback is clearly not in hard interrupt
context it is still not sleepable context.
Rename the argument to `non_blocking' and set it to true if invoked from
the timer callback or the interrupt handler which allows to remove the
in_interrupt() check and makes the code consistent.

efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf() is now only invoked from thread context
and can sleep after efx::stats_lock is dropped.

efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf() used in_interrupt() to figure out
whether it is safe to sleep (for MCDI) or not.
The only caller from which it was not is efx_net_stats(), which can be
invoked under dev_base_lock from net-sysfs::netstat_show().
So add a new update_stats_atomic() method to struct efx_nic_type, and call
it from efx_net_stats(), removing the need for
efx_ef10_try_update_nic_stats_vf() to behave differently for this case
(which it wasn't doing correctly anyway).
For all nic_types other than EF10 VF, this method is NULL so the the
regular update_stats() methods are invoked , which are happy with being
called from atomic contexts.
Fixes: f00bf2305c ("sfc: don't update stats on VF when called in atomic context")
