ixgbe/ixgbevf: Limit maximum jumbo frame size to 9.5K to avoid Tx hangs
This change limits the PF/VF driver to 9.5K max jumbo frame size in order
prevent a possible Tx hang in the adapter when sending frames between
pools.
All of the parts in ixgbe support a maximum frame of 15.5K for standard
traffic, however with SR-IOV or DCB enabled they should be limiting the
MTU size to 9.5K. Instead of adding extra checks which would have to
change the MTU when we go into or out of these modes it is preferred to
just use a standard 9.5K MTU limit for all modes so that this extra
overhead can be avoided.

ixgbevf: Set the netdev number of Tx queues
The driver was not setting the number of real Tx queues in the net_device
structure. This caused some serious issues such as Tx hangs and extremely
poor performance with some usages of the driver.
The issue is best observed by running:
iperf -c <host> -P <n>
Where n is greater than one. The greater the value of n the more likely
the problem is to show up.

After the change "Make neigh lookups directly in output packet path"
(commit a263b30936) IPVS can not reach the real server for DR mode
because we resolve the destination address from IP header, not from
route neighbour. Use the new FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH flag to request
output routes with known nexthop, so that it has preference

Add flag to request that output route should be
returned with known rt_gateway, in case we want to use
it as nexthop for neighbour resolving.
The returned route can be cached as follows:
- in NH exception: because the cached routes are not shared
with other destinations
- in FIB NH: when using gateway because all destinations for
NH share same gateway
As last option, to return rt_gateway!=0 we have to
set DST_NOCACHE.

Add new flag to remember when route is via gateway.
We will use it to allow rt_gateway to contain address of
directly connected host for the cases when DST_NOCACHE is
used or when the NH exception caches per-destination route
without DST_NOCACHE flag, i.e. when routes are not used for
other destinations. By this way we force the neighbour
resolving to work with the routed destination but we
can use different address in the packet, feature needed
for IPVS-DR where original packet for virtual IP is routed
via route to real IP.

After "Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops" (commit d2d68ba9fe) and "Elide fib_validate_source() completely when possible"
(commit 7a9bc9b81a) we can not send ICMP redirects. It seems we
should not cache the RTCF_DOREDIRECT flag in nh_rth_input because
the same fib_info can be used for traffic that is not redirected,
eg. from other input devices or from sources that are not in same subnet.
As result, we have to disable the caching of RTCF_DOREDIRECT
flag and to force source validation for the case when forwarding
traffic to the input device. If traffic comes from directly connected
source we allow redirection as it was done before both changes.
Avoid setting RTCF_DOREDIRECT if IN_DEV_TX_REDIRECTS
is disabled, this can avoid source address validation and to
help caching the routes.
After the change "Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway"
(commit f8126f1d51) we should make sure our ICMP_REDIR_HOST messages
contain daddr instead of 0.0.0.0 when target is directly connected.

vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols
6a32e4f9dd9219261f8856f817e6655114cfec2f made the vlan code skip marking
vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if
there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received
on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be
configured.
As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause
frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had
been received untagged.
For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not
configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached,
macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the
macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading
to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those
are completely unusable on the underlying interface.
The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the
rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards,
before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether
there is an rx_handler or not.

net: gro: selective flush of packets
Current GRO can hold packets in gro_list for almost unlimited
time, in case napi->poll() handler consumes its budget over and over.
In this case, napi_complete()/napi_gro_flush() are not called.
Another problem is that gro_list is flushed in non friendly way :
We scan the list and complete packets in the reverse order.
(youngest packets first, oldest packets last)
This defeats priorities that sender could have cooked.
Since GRO currently only store TCP packets, we dont really notice the
bug because of retransmits, but this behavior can add unexpected
latencies, particularly on mice flows clamped by elephant flows.
This patch makes sure no packet can stay more than 1 ms in queue, and
only in stress situations.

net: remove skb recycling
Over time, skb recycling infrastructure got litle interest and
many bugs. Generic rx path skb allocation is now using page
fragments for efficient GRO / TCP coalescing, and recyling
a tx skb for rx path is not worth the pain.
Last identified bug is that fat skbs can be recycled
and it can endup using high order pages after few iterations.
With help from Maxime Bizon, who pointed out that commit 87151b8689d (net: allow pskb_expand_head() to get maximum tailroom)
introduced this regression for recycled skbs.
Instead of fixing this bug, lets remove skb recycling.
Drivers wanting really hot skbs should use build_skb() anyway,
to allocate/populate sk_buff right before netif_receive_skb()

"There are three main parts:
(1) I found I needed some more fixups in the wake of testing Arm64
(some asm/unistd.h files had weird guards that caused problems -
mostly in arches for which I don't have a compiler) and some
__KERNEL__ splitting needed to take place in Arm64.
(2) I found that c6x was missing some __KERNEL__ guards in its
asm/signal.h. Mark Salter pointed me at a tree with a patch to
remove that file entirely and use the asm-generic variant instead.
(3) Lastly, m68k turned out to have a header installation problem due
to it lacking a kvm_para.h file.
The conditional installation bits for linux/kvm_para.h, linux/kvm.h
and linux/a.out.h weren't very well specified - and didn't work if
an arch didn't have the asm/ version of that file, but there *was*
an asm-generic/ version.
It seems the "ifneq $((wildcard ...),)" for each of those three
headers in include/kernel/Kbuild is invoked twice during header
installation, and the second time it matches on the just installed
asm-generic/kvm_para.h file and thus incorrectly installs
linux/kvm_para.h as well.
Most arches actually have an asm/kvm_para.h, so this wasn't

* Fix PVHVM bootup crashing.
The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports

The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware
as much as possible. That means use as little as possible of PV
operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os
(network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests
operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need
for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen

aoe: for performance support larger packet payloads
tAdd adds the ability to work with large packets composed of a number of
segments, using the scatter gather feature of the block layer (biovecs)
and the network layer (skb frag array). The motivation is the performance
gained by using a packet data payload greater than a page size and by
using the network card's scatter gather feature.
Users of the out-of-tree aoe driver already had these changes, but since
early 2011, they have complained of increased memory utilization and
higher CPU utilization during heavy writes.[1] The commit below appears
related, as it disables scatter gather on non-IP protocols inside the
harmonize_features function, even when the NIC supports sg.
net offloading: Generalize netif_get_vlan_features().
With that regression in place, transmits always linearize sg AoE packets,
but in-kernel users did not have this patch. Before 2.6.38, though, these
changes were working to allow sg to increase performance.

nbd: handle discard requests
Add discard support to nbd. If the nbd-server supports discard, it will
send NBD_FLAG_SEND_TRIM to the client. The client will then set the flag
in the kernel via NBD_SET_FLAGS, which tells the kernel to enable discards
for the device (QUEUE_FLAG_DISCARD).
If discard support is enabled, then when the nbd client system receives a
discard request, this will be passed along to the nbd-server. When the
discard request is received by the nbd-server, it will perform:
fallocate(.. FALLOC_FL_PUNCH_HOLE ..)
To punch a hole in the backend storage, which is no longer needed.

nbd: add set flags ioctl
Add a set-flags ioctl, allowing various option flags to be set on an nbd
device. This allows the nbd-client to set the device flags (to enable
read-only mode, or enable discard support, etc.).
Flags are typically specified by the nbd-server. During the negotiation
phase of the nbd connection, the server sends its flags to the client.
The client then uses NBD_SET_FLAGS to inform the kernel of the options.
Also included is a one-line fix to debug output for the set-timeout ioctl.

The following set of patches provides modifications targeting support of
multiple RapidIO master port (mport) devices on a CPU-side of
RapidIO-capable board. While the RapidIO subsystem code has definitions
suitable for multi-controller/multi-net support, the existing
implementation cannot be considered ready for multiple mport
configurations.
=========== NOTES: =============
a) The patches below do not address RapidIO side view of multiport
processing elements defined in Part 6 of RapidIO spec Rev.2.1 (section
6.4.1). These devices have Base Device ID CSR (0x60) and Component Tag
CSR (0x6C) shared by all SRIO ports. For example, Freescale's P4080,
P3041 and P5020 have a dual-port SRIO controller implemented according
the specification. Enumeration/discovery of such devices from RapidIO
side may require device-specific fixups.
b) Devices referenced above may also require implementation specific
code to setup a host device ID for mport device. These operations are
not addressed by patches in this package.
=================================
Details about provided patches:
1. Fix blocking wait for discovery ready
While it does not happen on PowerPC based platforms, there is
possibility of stalled CPU warning dump on x86 based platforms that run
RapidIO discovery process if they wait too long for being enumerated.
Currently users can avoid it by disabling the soft-lockup detector
using "nosoftlockup" kernel parameter OR by ensuring that enumeration
is completed before soft-lockup is detected.
This patch eliminates blocking wait and keeps a scheduler running.
It also is required for patch 3 below which introduces asynchronous
discovery process.
2. Use device lists handling on per-net basis
This patch allows to correctly support multiple RapidIO nets and
resolves possible issues caused by using single global list of devices
during RapidIO system enumeration/discovery. The most common sign of
existing issue is incorrect contents of switch routing tables in
systems with multiple mport controllers while single-port configuration
performs as expected.
The patch does not eliminate the global RapidIO device list but
changes some routines in enumeration/discovery to use per-net device
lists instead. This way compatibility with upper layer RIO routines is
preserved.
3. Run discovery as an asynchronous process
This patch modifies RapidIO initialization routine to asynchronously
run the discovery process for each corresponding mport. This allows
having an arbitrary order of enumerating and discovering mports without
creating a deadlock situation if an enumerator port was registered
after a discovering one.
On boards with multiple discovering mports it also eliminates order
dependency between mports and may reduce total time of RapidIO
subsystem initialization.
Making netID matching to mportID ensures consistent netID assignment
in multiport RapidIO systems with asynchronous discovery process
(global counter implementation is affected by race between threads).
4. Rework RIONET to support multiple RIO master ports
In the current version of the driver rionet_probe() has comment "XXX
Make multi-net safe". Now it is a good time to address this comment.
This patch makes RIONET driver multi-net safe/capable by introducing
per-net lists of RapidIO network peers. It also enables to register
network adapters for all available mport devices.
5. Add destination ID allocation mechanism
The patch replaces a single global destination ID counter with
per-net allocation mechanism to allow independent destID management for
each available RapidIO network. Using bitmap based mechanism instead
of counters allows destination ID release and reuse in systems that
support hot-swap.
This patch:
Fix blocking wait loop in the RapidIO discovery routine to avoid warning
dumps about stalled CPU on x86 platforms.

rapidio: apply RX/TX enable to active switch ports only
Apply port RX/TX enable operations only to active switch ports.
RapidIO specification (Part 6: LP-Serial Physical Layer) recommends to
keep Output Port Enable (TX) and Input Port Enable (RX) control bits in
disabled state (0b0) after device reset. It also allows to have
implementation specific reset state for these bits.
This patch ensures that TX/RX enable action is applied only to active
switch's ports while preserving an initial state of inactive ones.
This patch is intended to keep inactive switch ports with inbound and
outbound packet transfers disabled to block unexpected packets during hot
insertion event. While it does not fix any visible malfunction it is
intended to prevent such events in future.
