This patch add a generic, lockless dst cache implementation.
The need for lock is avoided updating the dst cache fields
only in per cpu scope, and requiring that the cache manipulation
functions are invoked with the local bh disabled.
The refresh_ts and reset_ts fields are used to ensure the cache
consistency in case of cuncurrent cache update (dst_cache_set*) and
reset operation (dst_cache_reset).
Consider the following scenario:
CPU1: CPU2:
<cache lookup with emtpy cache: it fails>
<get dst via uncached route lookup>
<related configuration changes>
dst_cache_reset()
dst_cache_set()
The dst entry set passed to dst_cache_set() should not be used
for later dst cache lookup, because it's obtained using old
configuration values.
Since the refresh_ts is updated only on dst_cache lookup, the
cached value in the above scenario will be discarded on the next
lookup.

Ethernet drivers implementing both {GS}RXFH and {GS}CHANNELS ethtool ops
incorrectly allow SCHANNELS when it would conflict with the settings
from SRXFH. This occurs because it is not possible for drivers to
understand whether their Rx flow indirection table has been configured
or is in the default state. In addition, drivers currently behave in
various ways when increasing the number of Rx channels.
Some drivers will always destroy the Rx flow indirection table when this
occurs, whether it has been set by the user or not. Other drivers will
attempt to preserve the table even if the user has never modified it
from the default driver settings. Neither of these situation is
desirable because it leads to unexpected behavior or loss of user
configuration.
The correct behavior is to simply return -EINVAL when SCHANNELS would
conflict with the current Rx flow table settings. However, it should
only do so if the current settings were modified by the user. If we
required that the new settings never conflict with the current (default)
Rx flow settings, we would force users to first reduce their Rx flow
settings and then reduce the number of Rx channels.
This patch proposes a solution implemented in net/core/ethtool.c which
ensures that all drivers behave correctly. It checks whether the RXFH
table has been configured to non-default settings, and stores this
information in a private netdev flag. When the number of channels is
requested to change, it first ensures that the current Rx flow table is
not going to assign flows to now disabled channels.

The arithmetic properties of the ones-complement checksum mean that a
correctly checksummed inner packet, including its checksum, has a ones
complement sum depending only on whatever value was used to initialise
the checksum field before checksumming (in the case of TCP and UDP,
this is the ones complement sum of the pseudo header, complemented).
Consequently, if we are going to offload the inner checksum with
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, we can compute the outer checksum based only on the
packed data not covered by the inner checksum, and the initial value of
the inner checksum field.

The network stack defers SKBs free, in-case free happens in IRQ or
when IRQs are disabled. This happens in __dev_kfree_skb_irq() that
writes SKBs that were free'ed during IRQ to the softirq completion
queue (softnet_data.completion_queue).
These SKBs are naturally delayed, and cleaned up during NET_TX_SOFTIRQ
in function net_tx_action(). Take advantage of this a use the skb
defer and flush API, as we are already in softirq context.
For modern drivers this rarely happens. Although most drivers do call
dev_kfree_skb_any(), which detects the situation and calls
__dev_kfree_skb_irq() when needed. This due to netpoll can call from
IRQ context.

Discovered that network stack were hitting the kmem_cache/SLUB
slowpath when freeing SKBs. Doing bulk free with kmem_cache_free_bulk
can speedup this slowpath.
NAPI context is a bit special, lets take advantage of that for bulk
free'ing SKBs.
In NAPI context we are running in softirq, which gives us certain
protection. A softirq can run on several CPUs at once. BUT the
important part is a softirq will never preempt another softirq running
on the same CPU. This gives us the opportunity to access per-cpu
variables in softirq context.
Extend napi_alloc_cache (before only contained page_frag_cache) to be
a struct with a small array based stack for holding SKBs. Introduce a
SKB defer and flush API for accessing this.
Introduce napi_consume_skb() as replacement for e.g. dev_consume_skb_any()
when running in NAPI context. A small trick to handle/detect if we
are called from netpoll is to see if budget is 0. In that case, we
need to invoke dev_consume_skb_irq().

Operations with the GENL_ADMIN_PERM flag fail permissions checks because
this flag means we call netlink_capable, which uses the init user ns.
Instead, let's introduce a new flag, GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM for operations
which should be allowed inside a user namespace.
The motivation for this is to be able to run openvswitch in unprivileged
containers. I've tested this and it seems to work, but I really have no
idea about the security consequences of this patch, so thoughts would be
much appreciated.
v2: use the GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag instead of a check in each function
v3: use separate ifs for UNS_ADMIN_PERM and ADMIN_PERM, instead of one
massive one

This patch makes it so that we can offload the checksums for a packet up
to a certain point and then begin computing the checksums via software.
Setting this up is fairly straight forward as all we need to do is reset
the values stored in csum and csum_start for the GSO context block.
One complication for this is remote checksum offload. In order to allow
the inner checksums to be offloaded while computing the outer checksum
manually we needed to have some way of indicating that the offload wasn't
real. In order to do that I replaced CHECKSUM_PARTIAL with
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the case of us computing checksums for the outer
header while skipping computing checksums for the inner headers. We clean
up the ip_summed flag and set it to either CHECKSUM_PARTIAL or
CHECKSUM_NONE once we hand the packet off to the next lower level.

This patch moves the checksum maintained by GSO out of skb->csum and into
the GSO context block in order to allow for us to work on outer checksums
while maintaining the inner checksum offsets in the case of the inner
checksum being offloaded, while the outer checksums will be computed.
While updating the code I also did a minor cleanu-up on gso_make_checksum.
The change is mostly to make it so that we store the values and compute the
checksum instead of computing the checksum and then storing the values we
needed to update.

This change extends the fast SO_REUSEPORT socket lookup implemented
for UDP to TCP. Listener sockets with SO_REUSEPORT and the same
receive address are additionally added to an array for faster
random access. This means that only a single socket from the group
must be found in the listener list before any socket in the group can
be used to receive a packet. Previously, every socket in the group
needed to be considered before handing off the incoming packet.
This feature also exposes the ability to use a BPF program when

In order to support fast lookups for TCP sockets with SO_REUSEPORT,
the function that adds sockets to the listening hash set needs
to be able to check receive address equality. Since this equality
check is different for IPv4 and IPv6, we will need two different
socket hashing functions.
This patch adds inet6_hash identical to the existing inet_hash function
and updates the appropriate references. A following patch will
differentiate the two by passing different comparison functions to
__inet_hash.
Additionally, in order to use the IPv6 address equality function from
inet6_hashtables (which is compiled as a built-in object when IPv6 is
enabled) it also needs to be in a built-in object file as well. This
moves ipv6_rcv_saddr_equal into inet_hashtables to accomplish this.

This patch changes the accounting of how many packets are
newly acked or sacked when the sender receives an ACK.
The current approach basically computes
newly_acked_sacked = (prior_packets - prior_sacked) -
(tp->packets_out - tp->sacked_out)
where prior_packets and prior_sacked out are snapshot
at the beginning of the ACK processing.
The new approach tracks the delivery information via a new
TCP state variable "delivered" which monotically increases
as new packets are delivered in order or out-of-order.
The reason for this change is that the current approach is
brittle that produces negative or inaccurate estimate.
1) For non-SACK connections, an ACK that advances the SND.UNA
could reset the DUPACK counters (tp->sacked_out) in
tcp_process_loss() or tcp_fastretrans_alert(). This inflates
the inflight suddenly and causes under-estimate or even
negative estimate. Here is a real example:
before after (processing ACK)
packets_out 75 73
sacked_out 23 0
ca state Loss Open
The old approach computes (75-23) - (73 - 0) = -21 delivered
while the new approach computes 1 delivered since it
considers the 2nd-24th packets are delivered OOO.
2) MSS change would re-count packets_out and sacked_out so
the estimate is in-accurate and can even become negative.
E.g., the inflight is doubled when MSS is halved.
3) Spurious retransmission signaled by DSACK is not accounted
The new approach is simpler and more robust. For SACK connections,
tp->delivered increments as packets are being acked or sacked in
SACK and ACK processing.
For non-sack connections, it's done in tcp_remove_reno_sacks() and
tcp_add_reno_sack(). When an ACK advances the SND.UNA, tp->delivered
is incremented by the number of packets ACKed (less the current
number of DUPACKs received plus one packet hole). Upon receiving
a DUPACK, tp->delivered is incremented assuming one out-of-order
packet is delivered.
Upon receiving a DSACK, tp->delivered is incremtened assuming one
retransmission is delivered in tcp_sacktag_write_queue().
