Large receive offloading is known to cause problems if received packets
are passed to other host. Therefore the kernel disables it by calling
dev_disable_lro() whenever a network device is enslaved in a bridge or
forwarding is enabled for it (or globally). For virtual devices we need
to disable LRO on the underlying physical device (which is actually
receiving the packets).
Current dev_disable_lro() code handles this propagation for a vlan
(including 802.1ad nested vlan), macvlan or a vlan on top of a macvlan.
It doesn't handle other stacked devices and their combinations, in
particular propagation from a bond to its slaves which often causes
problems in virtualization setups.
As we now have generic data structures describing the upper-lower device
relationship, dev_disable_lro() can be generalized to disable LRO also
for all lower devices (if any) once it is disabled for the device
itself.
For bonding and teaming devices, it is necessary to disable LRO not only
on current slaves at the moment when dev_disable_lro() is called but
also on any slave (port) added later.

Replace __skb_alloc_pages with simpler function
This patch series replaces __skb_alloc_pages with a much simpler function,

__skb_alloc_pages had an sk_buff pointer that was being passed as NULL in
call places where it was called. In a couple of cases the NULL was passed
by variable and this led to unnecessary code being run.
As such in order to simplify things the __dev_alloc_pages call only takes a
mask and the page order being requested. In addition it takes advantage of
several behaviors already built into the page allocator so that it can just
set GFP flags unconditionally.

net: Add device Rx page allocation function
This patch implements __dev_alloc_pages and __dev_alloc_page. These are
meant to replace the __skb_alloc_pages and __skb_alloc_page functions. The
reason for doing this is that it occurred to me that __skb_alloc_page is
supposed to be passed an sk_buff pointer, but it is NULL in all cases where
it is used. Worse is that in the case of ixgbe it is passed NULL via the
sk_buff pointer in the rx_buffer info structure which means the compiler is
not correctly stripping it out.
The naming for these functions is based on dev_alloc_skb and __dev_alloc_skb.
There was originally a netdev_alloc_page, however that was passed a
net_device pointer and this function is not so I thought it best to follow
that naming scheme since that is the same difference between dev_alloc_skb
and netdev_alloc_skb.
In the case of anything greater than order 0 it is assumed that we want a
compound page so __GFP_COMP is set for all allocations as we expect a
compound page when assigning a page frag.
The other change in this patch is to exploit the behaviors of the page
allocator in how it handles flags. So for example we can always set
__GFP_COMP and __GFP_MEMALLOC since they are ignored if they are not
applicable or are overridden by another flag.

tcp: move sk_mark_napi_id() at the right place
sk_mark_napi_id() is used to record for a flow napi id of incoming
packets for busypoll sake.
We should do this only on established flows, not on listeners.
This was 'working' by virtue of the socket cloning, but doing
this on SYN packets in unecessary cache line dirtying.
Even if we move sk_napi_id in the same cache line than sk_lock,
we are working to make SYN processing lockless, so it is desirable
to set sk_napi_id only for established flows.

As a result of the fact that we never processed the stopped ack for X,
the Tx path is led to incorrectly believe that the peer is still

net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer
Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard.
Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting
goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal
latencies.
To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use :
ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44
But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to
50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when
a packet with TCP Push flag is received.
Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every
incoming packet.
This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do,
based on traffic pattern.
Packets with Push flag wont be delayed.
Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep
receiving data.
This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting
/sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond.
To fully enable this mechanism, drivers should use napi_complete_done()
instead of napi_complete().
