net: Rewrite netif_set_xps_queues to address several issues
This change is meant to address several issues I found within the
netif_set_xps_queues function.
If the allocation of one of the maps to be assigned to new_dev_maps failed
we could end up with the device map in an inconsistent state since we had
already worked through a number of CPUs and removed or added the queue. To
address that I split the process into several steps. The first of which is
just the allocation of updated maps for CPUs that will need larger maps to
store the queue. By doing this we can fail gracefully without actually
altering the contents of the current device map.
The second issue I found was the fact that we were always allocating a new
device map even if we were not adding any queues. I have updated the code
so that we only allocate a new device map if we are adding queues,
otherwise if we are not adding any queues to CPUs we just skip to the
removal process.
The last change I made was to reuse the code from remove_xps_queue to remove
the queue from the CPU. By making this change we can be consistent in how
we go about adding and removing the queues from the CPUs.

softirq: reduce latencies
In various network workloads, __do_softirq() latencies can be up
to 20 ms if HZ=1000, and 200 ms if HZ=100.
This is because we iterate 10 times in the softirq dispatcher,
and some actions can consume a lot of cycles.
This patch changes the fallback to ksoftirqd condition to :
- A time limit of 2 ms.
- need_resched() being set on current task
When one of this condition is met, we wakeup ksoftirqd for further
softirq processing if we still have pending softirqs.
Using need_resched() as the only condition can trigger RCU stalls,
as we can keep BH disabled for too long.
I ran several benchmarks and got no significant difference in
throughput, but a very significant reduction of latencies (one order
of magnitude) :

net_sched: more precise pkt_len computation
One long standing problem with TSO/GSO/GRO packets is that skb->len
doesn't represent a precise amount of bytes on wire.
Headers are only accounted for the first segment.
For TCP, thats typically 66 bytes per 1448 bytes segment missing,
an error of 4.5 % for normal MSS value.
As consequences :
1) TBF/CBQ/HTB/NETEM/... can send more bytes than the assigned limits.
2) Device stats are slightly under estimated as well.
Fix this by taking account of headers in qdisc_skb_cb(skb)->pkt_len
computation.
Packet schedulers should use qdisc pkt_len instead of skb->len for their
bandwidth limitations, and TSO enabled devices drivers could use pkt_len
if their statistics are not hardware assisted, and if they don't scratch
skb->cb[] first word.
Both egress and ingress paths work, thanks to commit
fda55eca5a
(net: introduce skb_transport_header_was_set()) : If GRO built
a GSO packet, it also set the transport header for us.

bgmac: driver for GBit MAC core on BCMA bus
BCMA is a Broadcom specific bus with devices AKA cores. All recent BCMA
based SoCs have gigabit ethernet provided by the GBit MAC core. This
patch adds driver for such a cores registering itself as a netdev. It
has been tested on a BCM4706 and BCM4718 chipsets.
In the kernel tree there is already b44 driver which has some common
things with bgmac, however there are many differences that has led to
the decision or writing a new driver:
1) GBit MAC cores appear on BCMA bus (not SSB as in case of b44)
2) There is 64bit DMA engine which differs from 32bit one
3) There is no CAM (Content Addressable Memory) in GBit MAC
4) We have 4 TX queues on GBit MAC devices (instead of 1)
5) Many registers have different addresses/values
6) RX header flags are also different
The driver in it's state is functional how, however there is of course
place for improvements:
1) Supporting more net_device_ops
2) SUpporting more ethtool_ops
3) Unaligned addressing in DMA
4) Writing separated PHY driver

Merge branch 'delete-8390-EISA' of git://git./linux/kernel/git/paulg/linux
Paul Gortmaker says:
====================
I'd like to propose that we get rid of these old 8390 EISA drivers.
Of the five deleted here, I wrote four -- and while that doesn't give
me any authority for deletion above anyone else, it does at least
allow me to comment on the absolute absence of anyone reaching
out to the driver author for assistance in the last dozen years.
Eventually we'll probably get rid of EISA bus support, since in
x86, the hardware is close to 20 years old and already too resource
constrained to be useful today. However there might still be
a few DEC Alpha enthusiasts with old EISA machines kept alive,
and so I expect we'll have to wait a bit longer to get unanimous
agreement to proceed with the full EISA removal (although I'd
love to be proven wrong on that).
Most of the DEC Alpha machines shipped in a PCI configuration, and
even the few that were EISA had DEC tulip based ethernet and no
reason to be needing the inferior 8390 technology. So the interest
here for any possible DEC enthusiasts with EISA boxes about these
old 8390 drivers should be nil.
These really were rare cards -- in fact the smc-ultra32 is the only
one that I'd ever seen in person. Even back in the mid 90's when
the drivers were written, I would guess that the user base was less
than 10 people across all of them.
The following patch was created with --irreversible-delete for
ease of review (it skips showing the content of files that are
deleted); however the complete patch can be pulled as per below.

The NS8390 chip was essentially the 1st widespread PC ethernet

Even with better technologies available (bus mastering etc)
the 8390 managed to get used on a few rare EISA cards in the
early to mid 1990s.
The EISA bus in the x86 world was largely confined to systems
ranging from 486 to 586 (essentially 200MHz or lower, and less
than 100MB RAM) -- i.e. machines unlikely to be still in service,
and even less likely to be running a 3.9+ kernel.
On top of that, only one of the five really ever was considered
non-experimental; the smc-ultra32 was the one -- since it was
largely just an EISA version of the popular smc-ultra ISA card.
All the others had such a tiny user base that they simply never
could be considered anything more than experimental.

ndisc: Remove unused space at tail of skb for ndisc messages. (TAKE 3)
Currently, the size of skb allocated for NDISC is MAX_HEADER +
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) + packet length + dev->needed_tailroom,
but only LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) bytes is "reserved" for headers.
As a result, the skb looks like this (after construction of the
message):
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|<--MAX_HEADER-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
As the name implies, "MAX_HEADER" is used for headers, and should
be "reserved" in prior to packet construction. Or, if some space
is really required at the tail of ther skb, it should be
explicitly documented.
We have several option after construction of NDISC message:
Option 1:
head data tail end
+---------------------------------------------+
+ | | |
+---------------------------------------------+
|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
Option 2:
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------+
+ | | |
+--------------------------------------------------+
|<--MAX_HEADER-->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
= dev
->needed_
tailroom
Option 3:
head data tail end
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+ | | | |
+--------------------------------------------------------------+
|<--MAX_HEADER-->|<-hlen---->|<---ipv6 packet------>|<--tlen-->|
=LL_ = dev
RESERVED_ ->needed_
SPACE(dev) tailroom
Our tunnel drivers try expanding headroom and the space for tunnel
encapsulation was not a mandatory space -- so we are not seeing
bugs here --, but just for optimization for performance critial
situations.
Since NDISC messages are not performance critical unlike TCP,
and as we know outgoing device, LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) should be
just enough for the device in most (if not all) cases:
LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) <= LL_MAX_HEADER <= MAX_HEADER
Note that LL_RESERVED_SPACE(dev) is also enough for NDISC over
SIT (e.g., ISATAP).
So, I think Option 1 is just fine here.

net: introduce upper device lists and remove dev->master
Jiri Pirko says:
====================
This is a V6 of a repost of my previous patchset:
"[patch net-next v2 00/15] net: introduce upper device lists and remove dev->master" from Aug 14
The discussion around
"[net-next] bonding: don't allow the master to become its slave"
forced me to think about upper<->lower device connections.
This patchset adds a possibility to record upper device linkage.
All upper<->lower devices are converted to use this mechanism right after.
That leads to dev->master removal because this info becomes redundant since
"master links" have the same value.
After all changes, there is no longer possible to do things as:
"bond->someotherdevice->samebond"
Also I think that drivers like cxgb3, qlcnic, qeth would benefit by this
in future by being able to get more appropriate info about l3 addresses.
v5->v6:
- netdev_has_upper_dev() - added statement to comment that this is looking at
the immediate upper devices only.
- renamed "RTNL semaphore" -> "RTNL lock" in all comments
- renamed __netdev_has_upper_dev() to __netdev_search_upper_dev() to emhasize
the difference to netdev_has_upper_dev()
v4->v5:
- fixed missed typo in drivers/infiniband/hw/nes/nes_cm.c
v3->v4:
- comments in __netdev_upper_dev_link() squashed into one line
- kfree_rcu used instead of call_rcu in netdev_upper_dev_unlink()
v2->v3:
- removed recursion in __netdev_has_upper_dev()
- refreshed bits to be applicable on current net-next
v1->v2:
- s/unique/master/ better naming + stays closer to the past
- fixed vlan err goto
- original patch 15 (WARN_ON change) is squashed into the first patch
