Some qdisc like cake, codel, fq_codel might drop packets
in their dequeue() method.
This is currently problematic because dequeue() runs with
the qdisc spinlock held. Freeing skbs can be extremely expensive.
Add qdisc_dequeue_drop() method and a new TCQ_F_DEQUEUE_DROPS
so that these qdiscs can opt-in to defer the skb frees
after the socket spinlock is released.
TCQ_F_DEQUEUE_DROPS is an attempt to not penalize other qdiscs
with an extra cache line miss.

In commit 100dfa74ca ("net: dev_queue_xmit() llist adoption")

Note that skb->priority and skb->hash share a common cache line,

- Replace NAPI_SKB_CACHE_HALF with NAPI_SKB_CACHE_FREE
- Only free 32 skbs in napi_skb_cache_put()
Since the first patch adjusting NAPI_SKB_CACHE_SIZE to 128, the number
of packets to be freed in the softirq was increased from 32 to 64.
Considering a subsequent net_rx_action() calling napi_poll() a few
times can easily consume the 64 available slots and we can afford
keeping a higher value of sk_buffs in per-cpu storage, decrease
NAPI_SKB_CACHE_FREE to 32 like before. So now the logic is 1) keeping
96 skbs, 2) freeing 32 skbs at one time.

After commit b61785852e ("net: increase skb_defer_max default to 128")
changed the value sysctl_skb_defer_max to avoid many calls to
kick_defer_list_purge(), the same situation can be applied to
NAPI_SKB_CACHE_SIZE that was proposed in 2016. It's a trade-off between
using pre-allocated memory in skb_cache and saving more a bit heavy
function calls in the softirq context.
With this patch applied, we can have more skbs per-cpu to accelerate the
sending path that needs to acquire new skbs.

This is a followup of commit e20dfbad8a ("net: fix napi_consume_skb()
with alien skbs").
Now the per-cpu napi_skb_cache is populated from TX completion path,
we can make use of this cache, especially for cpus not used
from a driver NAPI poll (primary user of napi_cache).
We can use the napi_skb_cache only if current context is not from hard irq.
With this patch, I consistently reach 130 Mpps on my UDP tx stress test
and reduce SLUB spinlock contention to smaller values.
Note there is still some SLUB contention for skb->head allocations.
I had to tune /sys/kernel/slab/skbuff_small_head/cpu_partial

The ethtool tsconfig Netlink path can trigger a null pointer
dereference. A call chain such as:
tsconfig_prepare_data() ->
dev_get_hwtstamp_phylib() ->
vlan_hwtstamp_get() ->
generic_hwtstamp_get_lower() ->
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower()
results in generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() being called with
kernel_cfg->ifr as NULL.
The generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower() function does not expect
a NULL ifr and dereferences it, leading to a system crash.
Fix this by adding a NULL check for kernel_cfg->ifr in
generic_hwtstamp_ioctl_lower(). If ifr is NULL, return -EINVAL.

Since Eric proposed an idea about adding indirect call wrappers for
UDP and managed to see a huge improvement[1], the same situation can
also be applied in xsk scenario.
This patch adds an indirect call for xsk and helps current copy mode
improve the performance by around 1% stably which was observed with
IXGBE at 10Gb/sec loaded. If the throughput grows, the positive effect
will be magnified. I applied this patch on top of batch xmit series[2],
and was able to see <5% improvement from our internal application
which is a little bit unstable though.
Use INDIRECT wrappers to keep xsk_destruct_skb static as it used to
be when the mitigation config is off.
Be aware of the freeing path that can be very hot since the frequency
can reach around 2,000,000 times per second with the xdpsock test.

commit efa95b01da ("netpoll: fix use after free") incorrectly
ignored the refcount and prematurely set dev->npinfo to NULL during
netpoll cleanup, leading to improper behavior and memory leaks.
Scenario causing lack of proper cleanup:
1) A netpoll is associated with a NIC (e.g., eth0) and netdev->npinfo is
allocated, and refcnt = 1
- Keep in mind that npinfo is shared among all netpoll instances. In
this case, there is just one.
2) Another netpoll is also associated with the same NIC and
npinfo->refcnt += 1.
- Now dev->npinfo->refcnt = 2;
- There is just one npinfo associated to the netdev.
3) When the first netpolls goes to clean up:
- The first cleanup succeeds and clears np->dev->npinfo, ignoring
refcnt.
- It basically calls `RCU_INIT_POINTER(np->dev->npinfo, NULL);`
- Set dev->npinfo = NULL, without proper cleanup
- No ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is either called
4) Now the second target tries to clean up
- The second cleanup fails because np->dev->npinfo is already NULL.
* In this case, ops->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() was never called, and
the skb pool is not cleaned as well (for the second netpoll
instance)
- This leaks npinfo and skbpool skbs, which is clearly reported by
kmemleak.
Revert commit efa95b01da ("netpoll: fix use after free") and adds
clarifying comments emphasizing that npinfo cleanup should only happen
once the refcount reaches zero, ensuring stable and correct netpoll
behavior.

One GRO-cell device's NAPI callback can nest into the GRO-cell of
another device if the underlying device is also using GRO-cell.
This is the case for IPsec over vxlan.
These two GRO-cells are separate devices. From lockdep's point of view
it is the same because each device is sharing the same lock class and so
it reports a possible deadlock assuming one device is nesting into
itself.
Hold the bh_lock only while accessing gro_cell::napi_skbs in
gro_cell_poll(). This reduces the locking scope and avoids acquiring the
same lock class multiple times.

Fix a AA deadlock in refill_skbs() where memory allocation while holding
skb_pool->lock can trigger a recursive lock acquisition attempt.
The deadlock scenario occurs when the system is under severe memory
pressure:
1. refill_skbs() acquires skb_pool->lock (spinlock)
2. alloc_skb() is called while holding the lock
3. Memory allocator fails and calls slab_out_of_memory()
4. This triggers printk() for the OOM warning
5. The console output path calls netpoll_send_udp()
6. netpoll_send_udp() attempts to acquire the same skb_pool->lock
7. Deadlock: the lock is already held by the same CPU
Call stack:
refill_skbs()
spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- lock acquired
__alloc_skb()
kmem_cache_alloc_node_noprof()
slab_out_of_memory()
printk()
console_flush_all()
netpoll_send_udp()
skb_dequeue()
spin_lock_irqsave(&skb_pool->lock) <- deadlock attempt
This bug was exposed by commit 248f6571fd ("netpoll: Optimize skb
refilling on critical path") which removed refill_skbs() from the
critical path (where nested printk was being deferred), letting nested
printk being called from inside refill_skbs()
Refactor refill_skbs() to never allocate memory while holding
the spinlock.
Another possible solution to fix this problem is protecting the
refill_skbs() from nested printks, basically calling
printk_deferred_{enter,exit}() in refill_skbs(), then, any nested
pr_warn() would be deferred.
I prefer this approach, given I _think_ it might be a good idea to move
the alloc_skb() from GFP_ATOMIC to GFP_KERNEL in the future, so, having
the alloc_skb() outside of the lock will be necessary step.
There is a possible TOCTOU issue when checking for the pool length, and
queueing the new allocated skb, but, this is not an issue, given that
an extra SKB in the pool is harmless and it will be eventually used.

Revert struct sockaddr from flexible array to fixed 14-byte "sa_data",
to solve over 36,000 -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings, since
struct sockaddr is embedded within many network structs.
With socket/proto sockaddr-based internal APIs switched to use struct
sockaddr_unsized, there should be no more uses of struct sockaddr that
depend on reading beyond the end of struct sockaddr::sa_data that might
trigger bounds checking.
Comparing an x86_64 "allyesconfig" vmlinux build before and after this
patch showed no new "ud1" instructions from CONFIG_UBSAN_BOUNDS nor any
new "field-spanning" memcpy CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE instrumentations.

Gathering interface statistics can be a relatively expensive operation
on certain systems as it requires iterating over all the cpus.
RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS was first introduced [1] to skip AF_INET6
statistics from interface dumps and it was then extended [2] to
also exclude IFLA_VF_INFO.
The semantics of the flag does not seem to be limited to AF_INET
or VF statistics and having a way to query the interface status
(e.g: carrier, address) without retrieving its statistics seems
reasonable. So this patch extends the use RTEXT_FILTER_SKIP_STATS
to also affect IFLA_STATS.

NAPI_STATE_THREADED also.
When the threaded NAPI is scheduled, set NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL to
signal napi_complete_done not to rearm interrupts.
Whenever NAPI_STATE_THREADED_BUSY_POLL is unset, the
NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL will be unset, napi_complete_done unsets the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED_THREADED bit also, which in turn will make the kthread

The zero-copy Device Memory (Devmem) transmit path
relies on the socket's route cache (`dst_entry`) to
validate that the packet is being sent via the network
device to which the DMA buffer was bound.
However, this check incorrectly fails and returns `-ENODEV`
if the socket's route cache entry (`dst`) is merely missing
or expired (`dst == NULL`). This scenario is observed during
network events, such as when flow steering rules are deleted,
leading to a temporary route cache invalidation.
This patch fixes -ENODEV error for `net_devmem_get_binding()`
by doing the following:
1. It attempts to rebuild the route via `rebuild_header()`
if the route is initially missing (`dst == NULL`). This
allows the TCP/IP stack to recover from transient route
cache misses.
2. It uses `rcu_read_lock()` and `dst_dev_rcu()` to safely
access the network device pointer (`dst_dev`) from the
route, preventing use-after-free conditions if the
device is concurrently removed.
3. It maintains the critical safety check by validating
that the retrieved destination device (`dst_dev`) is
exactly the device registered in the Devmem binding
(`binding->dev`).
These changes prevent unnecessary ENODEV failures while
maintaining the critical safety requirement that the
Devmem resources are only used on the bound network device.

Add the ability to append the incoming IP interface information to
ICMPv6 error messages in accordance with RFC 5837 and RFC 4884. This is
required for more meaningful traceroute results in unnumbered networks.
The feature is disabled by default and controlled via a new sysctl
("net.ipv6.icmp.errors_extension_mask") which accepts a bitmask of ICMP
extensions to append to ICMP error messages. Currently, only a single
value is supported, but the interface and the implementation should be
able to support more extensions, if needed.
Clone the skb and copy the relevant data portions before modifying the
skb as the caller of icmp6_send() still owns the skb after the function
returns. This should be fine since by default ICMP error messages are
rate limited to 1000 per second and no more than 1 per second per
specific host.
Trim or pad the packet to 128 bytes before appending the ICMP extension
structure in order to be compatible with legacy applications that assume
that the ICMP extension structure always starts at this offset (the
minimum length specified by RFC 4884).
Since commit 20e1954fe2 ("ipv6: RFC 4884 partial support for SIT/GRE
tunnels") it is possible for icmp6_send() to be called with an skb that
already contains ICMP extensions. This can happen when we receive an
ICMPv4 message with extensions from a tunnel and translate it to an
ICMPv6 message towards an IPv6 host in the overlay network. I could not
find an RFC that supports this behavior, but it makes sense to not
overwrite the original extensions that were appended to the packet.
Therefore, avoid appending extensions if the length field in the
provided ICMPv6 header is already filled.
Export netdev_copy_name() using EXPORT_IPV6_MOD_GPL() to make it
available to IPv6 when it is built as a module.
