Li, Liang Z 905726c1c5 xen-netfront: Remove the meaningless code
The function netif_set_real_num_tx_queues() will return -EINVAL if
the second parameter < 1, so call this function with the second
parameter set to 0 is meaningless.

Julien Grall 6c10127d91 net/xen-netfront: Correct printf format in xennet_get_responses
rx->status is an int16_t, print it using %d rather than %u in order to
have a meaningful value when the field is negative.

Also use %u rather than %x for rx->offset.

xennet_remove() freed the queues before freeing the netdevice which
results in a use-after-free when free_netdev() tries to delete the

Wei Liu ccc9d90a9a xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring
Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along
information. This might limit the throughput between frontend and
backend.

The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in
general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to
various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also
included.

Affected Xen drivers:
* blkfront/back
* netfront/back
* pcifront/back
* scsifront/back
* vtpmfront

The interface is documented, as before, in xenbus_client.c.

Jonathan Davies 0c36820e2a xen-netfront: transmit fully GSO-sized packets
xen-netfront limits transmitted skbs to be at most 44 segments in size. However,
GSO permits up to 65536 bytes, which means a maximum of 45 segments of 1448
bytes each. This slight reduction in the size of packets means a slight loss in
efficiency.

Since c/s 9ecd1a75d, xen-netfront sets gso_max_size to
    XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER,
where XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE is 65535 bytes.

The calculation used by tcp_tso_autosize (and also tcp_xmit_size_goal since c/s
6c09fa09d) in determining when to split an skb into two is
    sk->sk_gso_max_size - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER.

So the maximum permitted size of an skb is calculated to be
    (XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER) - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER.

Intuitively, this looks like the wrong formula -- we don't need two TCP headers.
Instead, there is no need to deviate from the default gso_max_size of 65536 as
this already accommodates the size of the header.

Currently, the largest skb transmitted by netfront is 63712 bytes (44 segments
of 1448 bytes each), as observed via tcpdump. This patch makes netfront send
skbs of up to 65160 bytes (45 segments of 1448 bytes each).

Similarly, the maximum allowable mtu does not need to subtract MAX_TCP_HEADER as
it relates to the size of the whole packet, including the header.

David Vrabel 900e183301 xen-netfront: use different locks for Rx and Tx stats
In netfront the Rx and Tx path are independent and use different
locks.  The Tx lock is held with hard irqs disabled, but Rx lock is
held with only BH disabled.  Since both sides use the same stats lock,
a deadlock may occur.

  [ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
  3.16.2 #16 Not tainted
  ---------------------------------------------------------
  swapper/0/0 just changed the state of lock:
   (&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock){-.....}, at: [<c03adec8>]
  xennet_tx_interrupt+0x14/0x34
  but this lock took another, HARDIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
   (&stat->syncp.seq#2){+.-...}
  and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
  other info that might help us debug this:
   Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

         CPU0                    CPU1
         ----                    ----
    lock(&stat->syncp.seq#2);
                                 local_irq_disable();
                                 lock(&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock);
                                 lock(&stat->syncp.seq#2);
    <Interrupt>
      lock(&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock);

Using separate locks for the Rx and Tx stats fixes this deadlock.

David Vrabel 6a6dc08ff6 xen-netfront: use napi_complete() correctly to prevent Rx stalling
After d75b1ade56 (net: less interrupt
masking in NAPI) the napi instance is removed from the per-cpu list
prior to calling the n->poll(), and is only requeued if all of the
budget was used.  This inadvertently broke netfront because netfront
does not use NAPI correctly.

If netfront had not used all of its budget it would do a final check
for any Rx responses and avoid calling napi_complete() if there were
more responses.  It would still return under budget so it would never
be rescheduled.  The final check would also not re-enable the Rx
interrupt.

Additionally, xenvif_poll() would also call napi_complete() /after/
enabling the interrupt.  This resulted in a race between the
napi_complete() and the napi_schedule() in the interrupt handler.  The
use of local_irq_save/restore() avoided by race iff the handler is
running on the same CPU but not if it was running on a different CPU.

Fix both of these by always calling napi_compete() if the budget was
not all used, and then calling napi_schedule() if the final checks
says there's more work.

fix a problem where an skb that would have required too many slots
would be dropped causing TCP connections to stall.

However, it filled in the first slot using the original buffer and not
the new one and would use the wrong offset and grant access to the
wrong page.

Netback would notice the malformed request and stop all traffic on the
VIF, reporting:

overrun the hardware page while still being contained within the
compound page, but since compound_order() evaluates to 0 for tail

subsequent pages correctly in this scenario, so the BUGs are

David Vrabel 1f3c2eba1e xen-netfront: always keep the Rx ring full of requests
A full Rx ring only requires 1 MiB of memory.  This is not enough
memory that it is useful to dynamically scale the number of Rx
requests in the ring based on traffic rates, because:

a) Even the full 1 MiB is a tiny fraction of a typically modern Linux
   VM (for example, the AWS micro instance still has 1 GiB of memory).

b) Netfront would have used up to 1 MiB already even with moderate
   data rates (there was no adjustment of target based on memory
   pressure).

c) Small VMs are going to typically have one VCPU and hence only one
   queue.

Keeping the ring full of Rx requests handles bursty traffic better
than trying to converge on an optimal number of requests to keep
filled.

On a 4 core host, an iperf -P 64 -t 60 run from dom0 to a 4 VCPU guest
improved from 5.1 Gbit/s to 5.6 Gbit/s.  Gains with more bursty
traffic are expected to be higher.

Zoltan Kiss 97a6d1bb2b xen-netfront: Fix handling packets on compound pages with skb_linearize
There is a long known problem with the netfront/netback interface: if the guest
tries to send a packet which constitues more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 ring slots,
it gets dropped. The reason is that netback maps these slots to a frag in the
frags array, which is limited by size. Having so many slots can occur since
compound pages were introduced, as the ring protocol slice them up into
individual (non-compound) page aligned slots. The theoretical worst case
scenario looks like this (note, skbs are limited to 64 Kb here):
linear buffer: at most PAGE_SIZE - 17 * 2 bytes, overlapping page boundary,
using 2 slots
first 15 frags: 1 + PAGE_SIZE + 1 bytes long, first and last bytes are at the
end and the beginning of a page, therefore they use 3 * 15 = 45 slots
last 2 frags: 1 + 1 bytes, overlapping page boundary, 2 * 2 = 4 slots
Although I don't think this 51 slots skb can really happen, we need a solution
which can deal with every scenario. In real life there is only a few slots
overdue, but usually it causes the TCP stream to be blocked, as the retry will
most likely have the same buffer layout.
This patch solves this problem by linearizing the packet. This is not the
fastest way, and it can fail much easier as it tries to allocate a big linear
area for the whole packet, but probably easier by an order of magnitude than
anything else. Probably this code path is not touched very frequently anyway.

David Vrabel a5b5dc3ce4 xen-netfront: release per-queue Tx and Rx resource when disconnecting
Since netfront may reconnect to a backend with a different number of
queues, all per-queue Rx and Tx resources (skbs and grant references)
should be freed when disconnecting.

Without this fix, the Tx and Rx grant refs are not released and
netfront will exhaust them after only a few reconnections.  netfront
will fail to connect when no free grant references are available.

Since all Rx bufs are freed and reallocated instead of reused this
will add some additional delay to the reconnection but this is
expected to be small compared to the time taken by any backend hotplug
scripts etc.

David Vrabel f9feb1e6a2 xen-netfront: call netif_carrier_off() only once when disconnecting
In xennet_disconnect_backend(), netif_carrier_off() was called once
per queue when it needs to only be called once.

The queue locking around the netif_carrier_off() call looked very
odd. I think they were supposed to synchronize any NAPI instances with
the expectation that no further NAPI instances would be scheduled
because of the carrier being off (see the check in
xennet_rx_interrupt()).  But I can't easily tell if this works
correctly.

Instead, add a napi_synchronize() call after disabling the interrupts.
This is obviously correct as with no Rx interrupts, no further NAPI
instances will be scheduled.

David Vrabel f50b407653 xen-netfront: don't nest queue locks in xennet_connect()
The nesting of the per-queue rx_lock and tx_lock in xennet_connect()
is confusing to both humans and lockdep.  The locking is safe because
this is the only place where the locks are nested in this way but
lockdep still warns.

Instead of adding the missing lockdep annotations, refactor the
locking to avoid the confusing nesting.  This is still safe, because
the xenbus connection state changes are all serialized by the xenwatch
thread.

David Vrabel ce58725fec xen-netfront: recreate queues correctly when reconnecting
When reconnecting to the backend (after a resume/migration, for example),
a different number of queues may be required (since the guest may have
moved to a different host with different capabilities).  During the
reconnection the old queues are torn down and new ones created.

Introduce xennet_create_queues() and xennet_destroy_queues() that fixes
three bugs during the reconnection.

- The old info->queues was leaked.
- The old queue's napi instances were not deleted.
- The new queue's napi instances were left disabled (which meant no
  packets could be received).

The xennet_destroy_queues() calls is deferred until the reconnection
instead of the disconnection (in xennet_disconnect_backend()) because
napi_disable() might sleep.

Wei Liu d554f73df6 xen-netfront: reset skb network header before checksum
In ed1f50c3a ("net: add skb_checksum_setup") we introduced some checksum
functions in core driver. Subsequent change b5cf66cd1 ("xen-netfront:
use new skb_checksum_setup function") made use of those functions to
replace its own implementation.

However with that change netfront is broken. It sees a lot of checksum
error. That's because its own implementation of checksum function was a
bit hacky (dereferencing skb->data directly) while the new function was
implemented using ip_hdr(). The network header is not reset before skb
is passed to the new function. When the new function tries to do its
job, it's confused and reports error.

The fix is simple, we need to reset network header before passing skb to
checksum function. Netback is not affected as it already does the right
thing.

Annie Li cefe0078ee xen-netfront: fix resource leak in netfront
This patch removes grant transfer releasing code from netfront, and uses
gnttab_end_foreign_access to end grant access since
gnttab_end_foreign_access_ref may fail when the grant entry is
currently used for reading or writing.

* clean up grant transfer code kept from old netfront(2.6.18) which grants
pages for access/map and transfer. But grant transfer is deprecated in current
netfront, so remove corresponding release code for transfer.

* fix resource leak, release grant access (through gnttab_end_foreign_access)
and skb for tx/rx path, use get_page to ensure page is released when grant
access is completed successfully.

Xen-blkfront/xen-tpmfront/xen-pcifront also have similar issue, but patches
for them will be created separately.

V6: Correct subject line and commit message.

V5: Remove unecessary change in xennet_end_access.

V4: Revert put_page in gnttab_end_foreign_access, and keep netfront change in
single patch.

V3: Changes as suggestion from David Vrabel, ensure pages are not freed untill
grant acess is ended.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
 "Mostly these are fixes for fallout due to merge window changes, as
  well as cures for problems that have been with us for a much longer
  period of time"

 1) Johannes Berg noticed two major deficiencies in our genetlink
    registration.  Some genetlink protocols we passing in constant
    counts for their ops array rather than something like
    ARRAY_SIZE(ops) or similar.  Also, some genetlink protocols were
    using fixed IDs for their multicast groups.

    We have to retain these fixed IDs to keep existing userland tools
    working, but reserve them so that other multicast groups used by
    other protocols can not possibly conflict.

    In dealing with these two problems, we actually now use less state
    management for genetlink operations and multicast groups.

 2) When configuring interface hardware timestamping, fix several
    drivers that simply do not validate that the hwtstamp_config value
    is one the driver actually supports.  From Ben Hutchings.

 3) Invalid memory references in mwifiex driver, from Amitkumar Karwar.

 4) In dev_forward_skb(), set the skb->protocol in the right order
    relative to skb_scrub_packet().  From Alexei Starovoitov.

 5) Bridge erroneously fails to use the proper wrapper functions to make
    calls to netdev_ops->ndo_vlan_rx_{add,kill}_vid.  Fix from Toshiaki
    Makita.

 6) When detaching a bridge port, make sure to flush all VLAN IDs to
    prevent them from leaking, also from Toshiaki Makita.

 7) Put in a compromise for TCP Small Queues so that deep queued devices
    that delay TX reclaim non-trivially don't have such a performance
    decrease.  One particularly problematic area is 802.11 AMPDU in
    wireless.  From Eric Dumazet.

 8) Fix crashes in tcp_fastopen_cache_get(), we can see NULL socket dsts
    here.  Fix from Eric Dumzaet, reported by Dave Jones.

 9) Fix use after free in ipv6 SIT driver, from Willem de Bruijn.

10) When computing mergeable buffer sizes, virtio-net fails to take the

Ma JieYue fdcf77659c xen-netfront: fix missing rx_refill_timer when allocate memory failed
There was a bug in xennet_alloc_rx_buffers, when allocating page or
sk_buff failed, and at the same time rx_batch queue not empty,
the rx_refill_timer timer won't be scheduled. If finally the remaining
request buffers in rx ring less than what backend driver expected,
the backend driver would think of rx ring as full and start dropping packets.
In such situation, there is no way for the netfront driver to recover
automatically, so that the device can not work properly.

The patch fixes the problem by always scheduling rx_refill_timer timer when
alloc_page or __netdev_alloc_skb fails, no matter whether rx_batch queue is
empty or not. It ensures that the rx ring request buffers will finally meet
the backend needs.
