virtio_net: add ethtool get/set settings support
Patch 1 adds ethtool speed/duplex validation functions which check if the
value is defined. Patch 2 adds support for ethtool (get|set)_settings and
uses the validation functions to check the user-supplied values.
v2: split in 2 patches to allow everyone to make use of the validation
functions and allow virtio_net devices to be half duplex
v3: added a check to return error if the user tries to change anything else
besides duplex/speed as per Michael's comment
v4: Set port type to PORT_OTHER
v5: clear diff1.port (ignore port) when checking for changes since we set
it now and ethtool uses it in the set request

This patch allows the user to set and retrieve speed and duplex of the
virtio_net device via ethtool. Having this functionality is very helpful
for simulating different environments and also enables the virtio_net
device to participate in operations where proper speed and duplex are
required (e.g. currently bonding lacp mode requires full duplex). Custom
speed and duplex are not allowed, the user-supplied settings are validated
before applying.
Example:
$ ethtool eth1
Settings for eth1:
...
Speed: Unknown!
Duplex: Unknown! (255)
$ ethtool -s eth1 speed 1000 duplex full
$ ethtool eth1
Settings for eth1:
...
Speed: 1000Mb/s
Duplex: Full

tcp: congestion control refactoring
This patch set refactors the sequence of congestion control,
loss recovery, and transmission logic in TCP ack processing.
The design goal is to decouple and sequence them in the following order:
0. ACK accounting: free or tag sent packets [unchanged]
1. loss recovery: identify lost/ecn packets and update congestion state
2. congestion control: up/down cwnd and pacing rate based on (1)
3. transmission: send new or retransmit old based on (1) and (2)
This refactoring makes the cwnd changes more clear because it's done
in one place. The packet accounting is also more robust especially
for connections that do not support SACK. Patch 1-4 and 6 are
refactoring and patch 5 improves TCP performance under reordering.

This change enables congestion control to update cwnd based on
not only packet cumulatively acked but also packets delivered
out-of-order. This makes congestion control robust against packet
reordering because it may raise cwnd as long as packets are being
delivered once reordering has been detected (i.e., it only cares
the amount of packets delivered, not the ordering among them).

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().

Currently the cwnd is reduced and increased in various different
places. The reduction happens in various places in the recovery
state processing (tcp_fastretrans_alert) while the increase
happens afterward.
A better sequence is to identify lost packets and update
the congestion control state (icsk_ca_state) first. Then base
on the new state, up/down the cwnd in one central place. It's
more clear to reason cwnd changes.

My recent patch to the Xen Project documents a protocol for 'dynamic

protocol to not require a shared ring reconnection to turn the feature off.
Instead the backend watches the "request-multicast-control" key in xenstore
and turns the feature off if the key value is written to zero.
This patch adds support for dynamic multicast control in xen-netback.

The SRIOV resource distribution logic for RX/TX queue counts is not optimal
when a small number of VFs are enabled. It does not take into account the
VF's EQ count while computing the queue counts. Because of this, the VF
gets a large number of queues, though it doesn't have sufficient EQs,
resulting in wasted queue resources. And the PF gets a smaller share of
queues though it has more EQs. Fix this by capping the VF queue count at
its EQ count.

vxlan: cleanup headers and tx path
This is first part of vxlan cleanup. It makes vxlan.h better organized and
removes code duplication in the tx path. There's no change in functionality.
This is in preparation for VXLAN-GPE support. Other sets will follow with
cleanup of rx path, modifications of vxlan interface setup and
cleanup/modification of fdb handling. The goal of these patchsets is to
consolidate VXLAN extension handling (right now it's scattered all around
the code) and allow vxlan to operate in L3 mode (i.e. without inner Ethernet
headers).

Considering current pty code and multiple devpts instances, it's possible
to umount a devpts file system while a program still has /dev/tty opened
pointing to a previosuly closed pty pair in that instance. In the case all
ptmx and pts/N files are closed, umount can be done. If the program closes
/dev/tty after umount is done, devpts_kill_index will use now an invalid
super_block, which was already destroyed in the umount operation after
running ->kill_sb. This is another "use after free" type of issue, but now
related to the allocated super_block instance.
To avoid the problem (warning at ida_remove and potential crashes) for
this specific case, I added two functions in devpts which grabs additional
references to the super_block, which pty code now uses so it makes sure
the super block structure is still valid until pty shutdown is done.
I also moved the additional inode references to the same functions, which
also covered similar case with inode being freed before /dev/tty final
close/shutdown.

This change fixes a bug for a corner case where we have the the last
release from a pty master/slave coming from a previously opened /dev/tty
file. When this happens, the tty->driver_data can be stale, due to all
ptmx or pts/N files having already been closed before (and thus the inode
related to these files, which tty->driver_data points to, being already
freed/destroyed).
The fix here is to keep a reference on the opened master ptmx inode.
We maintain the inode referenced until the final pty_unix98_shutdown,
and only pass this inode to devpts_kill_index.

add_softcursor() stores the contents of the text buffer position in this
variable before drawing the softcursor, whereas hide_softcursor() writes
the value back. A value of -1 means that no cursor has been drawn and
therefore no character is to be restored. softcursor_original, however,
is only implicitly initialized with 0. Therefore, when hide_softcursor
is called for the first time (console_init -> con_init -> redraw_screen
-> hide_cursor), it wrongly writes 0x0000 in the top left corner of
the text buffer. Normally, this is just as black as the rest of the
screen (vc_video_erase_char) and can't be seen, but it appears as a
black cursor rectangle on non-black backgrounds e.g. with boot option
"vt.global_cursor_default=0 vt.color=0xf0". softcursor_original needs

The nozomi wireless data driver has its own helper function to
transfer data from a FIFO, doing an extra byte swap on big-endian
architectures, presumably to bring the data back into byte-serial
order after readw() or readl() perform their implicit byteswap.
This helper function is used in the receive_data() function to
first read the length into a 32-bit variable, which causes
a compile-time warning:
drivers/tty/nozomi.c: In function 'receive_data':
drivers/tty/nozomi.c:857:9: warning: 'size' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
The problem is that gcc is unsure whether the data was actually
read or not. We know that it is at this point, so we can replace
it with a single readl() to shut up that warning.
I am leaving the byteswap in there, to preserve the existing
behavior, even though this seems fishy: Reading the length of
the data into a cpu-endian variable should normally not use
a second byteswap on big-endian systems, unless the hardware
is aware of the CPU endianess.
There appears to be a lot more confusion about endianess in this
driver, so it probably has not worked on big-endian systems in
a long time, if ever, and I have no way to test it. It's well
possible that this driver has not been used by anyone in a while,
the last patch that looks like it was tested on the hardware is
from 2008.
