We have assembly code generated by a script. GCC successfully compiles
it. However, the kernel cannot load it on an ARM64 platform with a 4K
page size. In contrast, the same ELF file loads correctly on the same
platform with a 64K page size.
The root cause is the Linux kernel's ELF_MIN_ALIGN limitation on the
program headers of ELF files. The ELF file contains 78 program headers
(the script inserts many holes when generating the assembly code). On
ARM64 with a 4K page size, the ELF_MIN_ALLIGN enforces a maximum of 74
program headers, causing the ELF file to fail. However, with a 64K page
size, the ELF_MIN_ALIGN is relaxed to over 1,184 program headers, allowing
the file to run correctly.
Cook kindly identified[1] that this limitation was introduced in
Linux-0.99.15f without an explanation for its purpose.
The ELF specification does not impose such a restriction on program
headers. Removing the ELF_MIN_ALIGN limitation on program headers to
align with the ELF spec. After removing ELF_MIN_ALIGN limitation,
64K size limitation still exist which should be sufficient.

tbl->phash_buckets[] is only modified in the slow path by pneigh_create()
and pneigh_delete() under the table lock.
Both of them are called under RTNL, so no extra lock is needed, but we
will remove RTNL from the paths.
pneigh_create() looks up a pneigh_entry, and this part can be lockless,
but it would complicate the logic like
1. lookup
2. allocate pengih_entry for GFP_KERNEL
3. lookup again but under lock
4. if found, return it after freeing the allocated memory
5. else, return the new one
Instead, let's add a per-table mutex and run lookup and allocation
under it.

__pneigh_lookup() is the lockless version of pneigh_lookup(),

We will convert RTM_GETNEIGH to RCU.
neigh_get() looks up pneigh_entry by pneigh_lookup() and passes
it to pneigh_fill_info().
Then, we must ensure that the entry is alive till pneigh_fill_info()
completes, but read_lock_bh(&tbl->lock) in pneigh_lookup() does not
guarantee that.
Also, we will convert all readers of tbl->phash_buckets[] to RCU.
Let's use call_rcu() to free pneigh_entry and update phash_buckets[]
and ->next by rcu_assign_pointer().
pneigh_ifdown_and_unlock() uses list_head to avoid overwriting
->next and moving RCU iterators to another list.
pndisc_destructor() (only IPv6 ndisc uses this) uses a mutex, so it
is not delayed to call_rcu(), where we cannot sleep. This is fine
because the mcast code works with RCU and ipv6_dev_mc_dec() frees
mcast objects after RCU grace period.
While at it, we change the return type of pneigh_ifdown_and_unlock()
to void.

The next patch will free pneigh_entry with call_rcu().
Then, we need to annotate neigh_table.phash_buckets[] and
pneigh_entry.next with __rcu.
To make the next patch cleaner, let's annotate the fields in advance.
Currently, all accesses to the fields are under the neigh table lock,
so rcu_dereference_protected() is used with 1 for now, but most of them
(except in pneigh_delete() and pneigh_ifdown_and_unlock()) will be
replaced with rcu_dereference() and rcu_dereference_check().
Note that pneigh_ifdown_and_unlock() changes pneigh_entry.next to a
local list, which is illegal because the RCU iterator could be moved
to another list. This part will be fixed in the next patch.

pneigh_lookup() has ASSERT_RTNL() in the middle of the function, which
is confusing.
When called with the last argument, creat, 0, pneigh_lookup() literally
looks up a proxy neighbour entry. This is the case of the reader path
as the fast path and RTM_GETNEIGH.
pneigh_lookup(), however, creates a pneigh_entry when called with creat 1
from RTM_NEWNEIGH and SIOCSARP, which require RTNL.
Let's split pneigh_lookup() into two functions.
We will convert all the reader paths to RCU, and read_lock_bh(&tbl->lock)
in the new pneigh_lookup() will be dropped.

neigh_valid_get_req() calls neigh_find_table() to fetch neigh_tables[].
neigh_find_table() uses rcu_dereference_rtnl(), but RTNL actually does
not protect it at all; neigh_table_clear() can be called without RTNL

Fortunately, there is no bug because IPv4 is built-in, IPv6 cannot be

Our hardware registers are set through GCE, not by the CPU.
DRM might assume the hardware is disabled immediately after calling
atomic_disable() of drm_plane, but it is only truly disabled after the
GCE IRQ is triggered.
Additionally, the cursor plane in DRM uses async_commit, so DRM will
not wait for vblank and will free the buffer immediately after calling
atomic_disable().
To prevent the framebuffer from being freed before the layer disable
settings are configured into the hardware, which can cause an IOMMU
fault error, a wait_event_timeout has been added to wait for the
ddp_cmdq_cb() callback,indicating that the GCE IRQ has been triggered.

Add support for ETHTOOL_SRXFH (setting hashing fields) in RSS_SET.
The tricky part is dealing with symmetric hashing. In netlink user
can change the hashing fields and symmetric hash in one request,
in IOCTL the two used to be set via different uAPI requests.
Since fields and hash function config are still separate driver
callbacks - changes to the two are not atomic. Keep things simple
and validate the settings against both pre- and post- change ones.
Meaning that we will reject the config request if user tries
to correct the flow fields and set input_xfrm in one request,
or disables input_xfrm and makes flow fields non-symmetric.
We can adjust it later if there's a real need. Starting simple feels
right, and potentially partially applying the settings isn't nice,
either.

Unlike the ioctl don't check if at least one parameter is

so pick the ethtool-nl consistency vs copying ioctl behavior.
There are two special cases here:

2) support for tables of different size.
For (1) I use an empty Netlink attribute (array of size 0).
(2) may require some background. AFAICT a lot of modern devices
allow allocating RSS tables of different sizes. mlx5 can upsize
its tables, bnxt has some "table size calculation", and Intel
folks asked about RSS table sizing in context of resource allocation
in the past. The ethtool IOCTL API has a concept of table size,
but right now the user is expected to provide a table exactly
the size the device requests. Some drivers may change the table
size at runtime (in response to queue count changes) but the
user is not in control of this. What's not great is that all
RSS contexts share the same table size. For example a device
with 128 queues enabled, 16 RSS contexts 8 queues in each will
likely have 256 entry tables for each of the 16 contexts,
while 32 would be more than enough given each context only has
8 queues. To address this the Netlink API should avoid enforcing
table size at the uAPI level, and should allow the user to express
the min table size they expect.
To fully solve (2) we will need more driver plumbing but
at the uAPI level this patch allows the user to specify
a table size smaller than what the device advertises. The device
table size must be a multiple of the user requested table size.
We then replicate the user-provided table to fill the full device
size table. This addresses the "allow the user to express the min
table size" objective, while not enforcing any fixed size.
From Netlink perspective .get_rxfh_indir_size() is now de facto
the "max" table size supported by the device.
We may choose to support table replication in ethtool, too,
when we actually plumb this thru the device APIs.
Initially I was considering moving full pattern generation
to the kernel (which queues to use, at which frequency and
what min sequence length). I don't think this complexity
would buy us much and most if not all devices have pow-2
table sizes, which simplifies the replication a lot.

Kernel-doc requires at least version 3.6 to run, as it uses f-string.
Yet, Kernel build currently calls kernel-doc with -none on some places.
Better not to bail out when older versions are found.
Versions of Python prior to 3.7 do not guarantee to remember the insertion
order of dicts; since kernel-doc depends on that guarantee, running with
such older versions could result in output with reordered sections.
Check Python version when called via command line.
