If RPS is enabled, this allows configuring a default rps
mask, which is effective since receive queue creation time.
A default RPS mask allows the system admin to ensure proper
isolation, avoiding races at network namespace or device
creation time.
The default RPS mask is initially empty, and can be
modified via a newly added sysctl entry.

Add a Netlink spec-compatible family for netdevs.
This is a very simple implementation without much
thought going into it.
It allows us to reap all the benefits of Netlink specs,
one can use the generic client to issue the commands:
$ ./cli.py --spec netdev.yaml --dump dev_get
[{'ifindex': 1, 'xdp-features': set()},
{'ifindex': 2, 'xdp-features': {'basic', 'ndo-xmit', 'redirect'}},
{'ifindex': 3, 'xdp-features': {'rx-sg'}}]
the generic python library does not have flags-by-name
support, yet, but we also don't have to carry strings
in the messages, as user space can get the names from
the spec.

This patch introduces gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size
per device and adds netlink attributes for them, so that IPV4
BIG TCP can be guarded by a separate tunable in the next patch.
To not break the old application using "gso/gro_max_size" for
IPv4 GSO packets, this patch updates "gso/gro_ipv4_max_size"
in netif_set_gso/gro_max_size() if the new size isn't greater
than GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE, so that nothing will change even if
userspace doesn't realize the new netlink attributes.

Define a new kfunc set (xdp_metadata_kfunc_ids) which implements all possible
XDP metatada kfuncs. Not all devices have to implement them. If kfunc is not
supported by the target device, the default implementation is called instead.
The verifier, at load time, replaces a call to the generic kfunc with a call
to the per-device one. Per-device kfunc pointers are stored in separate
struct xdp_metadata_ops.

Currently, in bonding it reused the IFF_SLAVE flag and checked it
in ipv6 addrconf to prevent ipv6 addrconf.
However, it is not a proper flag to use for no ipv6 addrconf, for
bonding it has to move IFF_SLAVE flag setting ahead of dev_open()
in bond_enslave(). Also, IFF_MASTER/SLAVE are historical flags
used in bonding and eql, as Jiri mentioned, the new devices like
Team, Failover do not use this flag.
So as Jiri suggested, this patch adds IFF_NO_ADDRCONF in priv_flags
of the device to indicate no ipv6 addconf, and uses it in bonding
and moves IFF_SLAVE flag setting back to its original place.

Both in RX and TX, the traffic that performs IPsec packet offload
transformation is accounted by HW. It is needed to properly handle
hard limits that require to drop the packet.
It means that XFRM core needs to update internal counters with the one
that accounted by the HW, so new callbacks are introduced in this patch.
In case of soft or hard limit is occurred, the driver should call to
xfrm_state_check_expire() that will perform key rekeying exactly as
done by XFRM core.

Long standing KCSAN issues are caused by data-race around
some dev->stats changes.
Most performance critical paths already use per-cpu
variables, or per-queue ones.
It is reasonable (and more correct) to use atomic operations
for the slow paths.
This patch adds an union for each field of net_device_stats,
so that we can convert paths that are not yet protected
by a spinlock or a mutex.
netdev_stats_to_stats64() no longer has an #if BITS_PER_LONG==64
Note that the memcpy() we were using on 64bit arches
had no provision to avoid load-tearing,
while atomic_long_read() is providing the needed protection
at no cost.

Allow a network interface to be renamed when the interface
is up.
As described in the netconsole documentation [1], when netconsole is
used as a built-in, it will bring up the specified interface as soon as
possible. As a result, user space will not be able to rename the
interface since the kernel disallows renaming of interfaces that are
administratively up unless the 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' private flag was set
by the kernel.
The original solution [2] to this problem was to add a new parameter to
the netconsole configuration parameters that allows renaming of
the interface used by netconsole while it is administratively up.
However, during the discussion that followed, it became apparent that we
have no reason to keep the current restriction and instead we should
allow user space to rename interfaces regardless of their administrative
state:
1. The restriction was put in place over 20 years ago when renaming was
only possible via IOCTL and before rtnetlink started notifying user
space about such changes like it does today.
2. The 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' flag was added over 3 years ago in version
5.2 and no regressions were reported.
3. In-kernel listeners to 'NETDEV_CHANGENAME' do not seem to care about
the administrative state of interface.
Therefore, allow user space to rename running interfaces by removing the
restriction and the associated 'IFF_LIVE_RENAME_OK' flag. Help in
possible triage by emitting a message to the kernel log that an
interface was renamed while UP.

bitmap_and(tmp, map1, map2, nbits);
weight = bitmap_weight(tmp, nbits);
bitmap_free(tmp);

When adding optional new features to Qdisc offloads, existing drivers
must reject the new configuration until they are coded up to act on it.
Since modifying all drivers in lockstep with the changes in the Qdisc
can create problems of its own, it would be nice if there existed an
automatic opt-in mechanism for offloading optional features.
Jakub proposes that we multiplex one more kind of call through
ndo_setup_tc(): one where the driver populates a Qdisc-specific
capability structure.
First user will be taprio in further changes. Here we are introducing
the definitions for the base functionality.

After commit 3226b158e67c ("net: avoid 32 x truesize under-estimation
for tiny skbs") we are observing 10-20% regressions in performance
tests with small packets. The perf trace points to high pressure on
the slab allocator.
This change tries to improve the allocation schema for small packets
using an idea originally suggested by Eric: a new per CPU page frag is
introduced and used in __napi_alloc_skb to cope with small allocation
requests.
To ensure that the above does not lead to excessive truesize
underestimation, the frag size for small allocation is inflated to 1K
and all the above is restricted to build with 4K page size.
Note that we need to update accordingly the run-time check introduced
with commit fd9ea57f4e95 ("net: add napi_get_frags_check() helper").
Alex suggested a smart page refcount schema to reduce the number
of atomic operations and deal properly with pfmemalloc pages.
Under small packet UDP flood, I measure a 15% peak tput increases.

Some network drivers use __dev_mc_sync()/__dev_uc_sync() and therefore
program the hardware only with addresses with a non-zero sync_cnt.
Some of the above drivers also need to save/restore the address
filtering lists when certain events happen, and they need to walk
through the struct net_device :: uc and struct net_device :: mc lists.
But these lists contain unsynced addresses too.
To keep the appearance of an elementary form of data encapsulation,
provide iterators through these lists that only look at entries with a
non-zero sync_cnt, instead of filtering entries out from device drivers.

Add some documentation for netdev_tx_sent_queue() and
netdev_tx_completed_queue()
Stating that netdev_tx_completed_queue() must be called once
per TX completion round is apparently not obvious for everybody.

Use try_cmpxchg instead of cmpxchg (*ptr, old, new) == old in
napi_if_scheduled_mark_missed. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns
success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg
(and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg).
Also, try_cmpxchg implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when cmpxchg
fails, enabling further code simplifications.

DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention
from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol
history museum not in Linux kernel.
It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support
for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on
Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well.
Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling.
This means that there is still an empty neighbour table
for AF_DECNET.
The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match
current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic
reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn
but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively
recent and should be the default for new code.
Rename:
dev_hold_track() -> netdev_hold()
dev_put_track() -> netdev_put()
dev_replace_track() -> netdev_ref_replace()

Most protocol-specific pointers in struct net_device are under
a respective ifdef. Wireless is the notable exception. Since
there's a sizable number of custom-built kernels for datacenter
workloads which don't build wireless it seems reasonable to
ifdefy those pointers as well.
While at it move IPv4 and IPv6 pointers up, those are special
for obvious reasons.

When calling dev_fill_forward_path on a pppoe device, the provided destination
address is invalid. In order for the bridge fdb lookup to succeed, the pppoe
code needs to update ctx->daddr to the correct value.

A cpu can observe sd->defer_count reaching 128,
and call smp_call_function_single_async()
Problem is that the remote CPU can clear sd->defer_count
before the IPI is run/acknowledged.
Other cpus can queue more packets and also decide
to call smp_call_function_single_async() while the pending
IPI was not yet delivered.
This is a common issue with smp_call_function_single_async().
Callers must ensure correct synchronization and serialization.
I triggered this issue while experimenting smaller threshold.
Performing the call to smp_call_function_single_async()
under sd->defer_lock protection did not solve the problem.
Commit 5a18ceca6350 ("smp: Allow smp_call_function_single_async()
to insert locked csd") replaced an informative WARN_ON_ONCE()
with a return of -EBUSY, which is often ignored.
Test of CSD_FLAG_LOCK presence is racy anyway.

Allow the gro_max_size to exceed a value larger than 65536.
There weren't really any external limitations that prevented this other
than the fact that IPv4 only supports a 16 bit length field. Since we have
the option of adding a hop-by-hop header for IPv6 we can allow IPv6 to
exceed this value and for IPv4 and non-TCP flows we can cap things at 65536
via a constant rather than relying on gro_max_size.
[edumazet] limit GRO_MAX_SIZE to (8 * 65535) to avoid overflows.

Minimal TCP MSS size is 8 bytes, and shinfo->gso_segs

The code for gso_max_size was added originally to allow for debugging and
workaround of buggy devices that couldn't support TSO with blocks 64K in
size. The original reason for limiting it to 64K was because that was the
existing limits of IPv4 and non-jumbogram IPv6 length fields.
With the addition of Big TCP we can remove this limit and allow the value
to potentially go up to UINT_MAX and instead be limited by the tso_max_size
value.
So in order to support this we need to go through and clean up the
remaining users of the gso_max_size value so that the values will cap at
64K for non-TCPv6 flows. In addition we can clean up the GSO_MAX_SIZE value
so that 64K becomes GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE and UINT_MAX will now be the upper
limit for GSO_MAX_SIZE.
v6: (edumazet) fixed a compile error if CONFIG_IPV6=n,
in a new sk_trim_gso_size() helper.
netif_set_tso_max_size() caps the requested TSO size
with GSO_MAX_SIZE.

If a physical clock supports a free running cycle counter, then
timestamps shall be based on this time too. For TX it is known in
advance before the transmission if a timestamp based on the free running
cycle counter is needed. For RX it is impossible to know which timestamp
is needed before the packet is received and assigned to a socket.
Support late timestamp determination by a network device. Therefore, an
address/cookie is stored within the new netdev_data field of struct
skb_shared_hwtstamps. This address/cookie is provided to a new network
device function called ndo_get_tstamp(), which returns a timestamp based
on the normal/adjustable time or based on the free running cycle
counter. If function is not supported, then timestamp handling is not
changed.
This mechanism is intended for RX, but TX use is also possible.
