This tc action allows you to retrieve the connection tracking mark
This action has been used heavily by openwrt for a few years now.
There are known limitations currently:
doesn't work for initial packets, since we only query the ct table.
Fine given use case is for returning packets
no implicit defrag.
frags should be rare so fix later..
won't work for more complex tasks, e.g. lookup of other extensions
since we have no means to store results
we still have a 2nd lookup later on via normal conntrack path.
This shouldn't break anything though since skb->nfct isn't altered.
V2:
remove unnecessary braces (Jiri)
change the action identifier to 14 (Jiri)
Fix some stylistic issues caught by checkpatch
V3:
Move module params to bottom (Cong)
Get rid of tcf_hashinfo_init and friends and conform to newer API (Cong)

tc code implicitly considers skb->protocol even in case of accelerated
vlan paths and expects vlan protocol type here. However, on rx path,
if the vlan header was already stripped, skb->protocol contains value
of next header. Similar situation is on tx path.
So for skbs that use skb->vlan_tci for tagging, use skb->vlan_proto instead.

Restore the quota fairness between qdisc's, that we broke with commit
5772e9a346 ("qdisc: bulk dequeue support for qdiscs with TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE").
Before that commit, the quota in __qdisc_run() were in packets as
dequeue_skb() would only dequeue a single packet, that assumption
broke with bulk dequeue.
We choose not to account for the number of packets inside the TSO/GSO
packets (accessable via "skb_gso_segs"). As the previous fairness
also had this "defect". Thus, GSO/TSO packets counts as a single
packet.
Further more, we choose to slack on accuracy, by allowing a bulk
dequeue try_bulk_dequeue_skb() to exceed the "packets" limit, only
limited by the BQL bytelimit. This is done because BQL prefers to get
its full budget for appropriate feedback from TX completion.
In future, we might consider reworking this further and, if it allows,
switch to a time-based model, as suggested by Eric. Right now, we only
restore old semantics.
Joint work with Eric, Hannes, Daniel and Jesper. Hannes wrote the
first patch in cooperation with Daniel and Jesper. Eric rewrote the
patch.

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.
Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.
Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y
The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.
This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.
Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
netif_keep_dst(dev);
Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.
The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

Using the tcf_proto pointer 'tp' from inside the classifiers callback
is not valid because it may have been cleaned up by another call_rcu
occuring on another CPU.
'tp' is currently being used by tcf_unbind_filter() in this patch we
move instances of tcf_unbind_filter outside of the call_rcu() context.
This is safe to do because any running schedulers will either read the
valid class field or it will be zeroed.
And all schedulers today when the class is 0 do a lookup using the
same call used by the tcf_exts_bind(). So even if we have a running
classifier hit the null class pointer it will do a lookup and get
to the same result. This is particularly fragile at the moment because
the only way to verify this is to audit the schedulers call sites.

Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every
packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled()
It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of
global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows,
some of them can be throttled, while others are not.
Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to
qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled()
in sch_fq.

Validation of skb can be pretty expensive :
GSO segmentation and/or checksum computations.
We can do this without holding qdisc lock, so that other cpus
can queue additional packets.
Trick is that requeued packets were already validated, so we carry
a boolean so that sch_direct_xmit() can validate a fresh skb list,
or directly use an old one.
Tested on 40Gb NIC (8 TX queues) and 200 concurrent flows, 48 threads
host.
Turning TSO on or off had no effect on throughput, only few more cpu
cycles. Lock contention on qdisc lock disappeared.
Same if disabling TX checksum offload.

The TSO and GSO segmented packets already benefit from bulking
on their own.
The TSO packets have always taken advantage of the only updating
the tailptr once for a large packet.
The GSO segmented packets have recently taken advantage of
bulking xmit_more API, via merge commit 53fda7f7f9 ("Merge
branch 'xmit_list'"), specifically via commit 7f2e870f2a ("net:
Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.")
allowing qdisc requeue of remaining list. And via commit
ce93718fb7 ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we
software segment GSO frames.").
This patch allow further bulking of TSO/GSO packets together,
when dequeueing from the qdisc.
Testing:
Measuring HoL (Head-of-Line) blocking for TSO and GSO, with
netperf-wrapper. Bulking several TSO show no performance regressions
(requeues were in the area 32 requeues/sec).
Bulking several GSOs does show small regression or very small
improvement (requeues were in the area 8000 requeues/sec).
Using ixgbe 10Gbit/s with GSO bulking, we can measure some additional
latency. Base-case, which is "normal" GSO bulking, sees varying
high-prio queue delay between 0.38ms to 0.47ms. Bulking several GSOs
together, result in a stable high-prio queue delay of 0.50ms.
Using igb at 100Mbit/s with GSO bulking, shows an improvement.
Base-case sees varying high-prio queue delay between 2.23ms to 2.35ms

Based on DaveM's recent API work on dev_hard_start_xmit(), that allows
sending/processing an entire skb list.
This patch implements qdisc bulk dequeue, by allowing multiple packets
to be dequeued in dequeue_skb().
The optimization principle for this is two fold, (1) to amortize
locking cost and (2) avoid expensive tailptr update for notifying HW.
(1) Several packets are dequeued while holding the qdisc root_lock,
amortizing locking cost over several packet. The dequeued SKB list is
processed under the TXQ lock in dev_hard_start_xmit(), thus also
amortizing the cost of the TXQ lock.
(2) Further more, dev_hard_start_xmit() will utilize the skb->xmit_more
API to delay HW tailptr update, which also reduces the cost per
packet.
One restriction of the new API is that every SKB must belong to the
same TXQ. This patch takes the easy way out, by restricting bulk
dequeue to qdisc's with the TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE flag, that specifies the
qdisc only have attached a single TXQ.
Some detail about the flow; dev_hard_start_xmit() will process the skb
list, and transmit packets individually towards the driver (see
xmit_one()). In case the driver stops midway in the list, the
remaining skb list is returned by dev_hard_start_xmit(). In
sch_direct_xmit() this returned list is requeued by dev_requeue_skb().
To avoid overshooting the HW limits, which results in requeuing, the
patch limits the amount of bytes dequeued, based on the drivers BQL
limits. In-effect bulking will only happen for BQL enabled drivers.
Small amounts for extra HoL blocking (2x MTU/0.24ms) were
measured at 100Mbit/s, with bulking 8 packets, but the
oscillating nature of the measurement indicate something, like
sched latency might be causing this effect. More comparisons
show, that this oscillation goes away occationally. Thus, we
disregard this artifact completely and remove any "magic" bulking
limit.
For now, as a conservative approach, stop bulking when seeing TSO and
segmented GSO packets. They already benefit from bulking on their own.
A followup patch add this, to allow easier bisect-ability for finding
regressions.

This removes the use of qstats->qlen variable from the classifiers
and makes it an explicit argument to gnet_stats_copy_queue().
The qlen represents the qdisc queue length and is packed into
the qstats at the last moment before passnig to user space. By
handling it explicitely we avoid, in the percpu stats case, having
to figure out which per_cpu variable to put it in.
It would probably be best to remove it from qstats completely
but qstats is a user space ABI and can't be broken. A future
patch could make an internal only qstats structure that would
avoid having to allocate an additional u32 variable on the
Qdisc struct. This would make the qstats struct 128bits instead
of 128+32.

In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
need to be handled correctly.
To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.
Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
to use the per cpu statistics.

When kmemdup() fails, we should return -ENOMEM.

While using a MQ + NETEM setup, I had confirmation that the default
timer migration ( /proc/sys/kernel/timer_migration ) is killing us.
Installing this on a receiver side of a TCP_STREAM test, (NIC has 8 TX
queues) :
EST="est 1sec 4sec"
for ETH in eth1
do
tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null
tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:1 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 6ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:2 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 8ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:3 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 10ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:4 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 12ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:5 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 14ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:6 $EST netem limit 70000 delay 16ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:7 $EST netem limit 80000 delay 18ms
tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:8 $EST netem limit 90000 delay 20ms
done
We can see that timers get migrated into a single cpu, presumably idle
at the time timers are set up.
Then all qdisc dequeues run from this cpu and huge lock contention
happens. This single cpu is stuck in softirq mode and cannot dequeue
fast enough.
39.24% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock
2.65% [kernel] [k] netem_enqueue
1.80% [kernel] [k] netem_dequeue
1.63% [kernel] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string
1.45% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock_bh
By pinning qdisc timers on the cpu running the qdisc, we respect proper
XPS setting and remove this lock contention.
5.84% [kernel] [k] netem_enqueue
4.83% [kernel] [k] _raw_spin_lock
2.92% [kernel] [k] copy_user_enhanced_fast_string
Current Qdiscs that benefit from this change are :
netem, cbq, fq, hfsc, tbf, htb.
