Adds DEVLINK_ESWITCH_MODE_SWITCHDEV_INACTIVE attribute to UAPI and
documentation.
Before having traffic flow through an eswitch, a user may want to have the
ability to block traffic towards the FDB until FDB is fully programmed and
the user is ready to send traffic to it. For example: when two eswitches
are present for vports in a multi-PF setup, one eswitch may take over the
traffic from the other when the user chooses.
Before this take over, a user may want to first program the inactive
eswitch and then once ready redirect traffic to this new eswitch.
switchdev modes transition semantics:
legacy->switchdev_inactive: Create switchdev mode normally, traffic not
allowed to flow yet.
switchdev_inactive->switchdev: Enable traffic to flow.
switchdev->switchdev_inactive: Block traffic on the FDB, FDB and
representros state and content is preserved.
When eswitch is configured to this mode, traffic is ignored/dropped on
this eswitch FDB, while current configuration is kept, e.g FDB rules and
netdev representros are kept available, FDB programming is allowed.
Example:
# start inactive switchdev
devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev_inactive
# setup TC rules, representors etc ..
# activate
devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev

For monitoring, userspace will try to configure the VIF sdata, while the
driver may see the monitor_sdata that is created when only monitor
interfaces are up. This causes the odd situation that it may not be
possible to store the MU-MIMO configuration on monitor_sdata.
Fix this by storing that information on the VIF sdata and updating the
monitor_sdata when available and the interface is up. Also, adjust the
code that adds monitor_sdata so that it will configure MU-MIMO based on
the newly added interface or one of the existing ones.
This should give a mostly consistent behaviour when configuring MU-MIMO
on sniffer interfaces. Should the user configure MU-MIMO on multiple
sniffer interfaces, then mac80211 will simply select one of the
configurations. This behaviour should be good enough and avoids breaking
user expectations in the common scenarios.

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.

Each link can currently use a chanctx and have another one
reserved, and both of these are also tracked backwards in
the assigned_links and reserved_links lists. If we consider
that there aren't *that* many links, this duplicate book-
keeping isn't necessary.
(I think it used to be necessary before the wiphy locking
changes, when chanctx_mtx existed, because we couldn't do
any interface iterations while holding only chanctx_mtx.)
Additionally, for NAN, we're going to want to track which
chanctxs are in use by the (group of) NAN interfaces. For
those, links don't really make sense as such, so chanctxs
need to be assigned to a different data structure.
Thus, as a first step, remove those back-lists of users
(right now only links) of each channel context. This is a
very basic conversion, ieee80211_vif_use_reserved_switch()
should made to iterate smarter.

The current link iteration macros for_each_sdata_link() and
for_each_sdata_link_rcu() are various nested for loops, but
because they iterate all sdata instances and then all links
inside, using 'break' inside the iteration doesn't actually
break out of the whole iteration.
Make it work by tracking whether or not the inner iteration
(over links) actually completed, if it broke out then given
list_for_each_entry() it still iterates all sdata instances
but won't go into them.

TCP SACK compression has been added in 2018 in commit
5d9f4262b7 ("tcp: add SACK compression").
It is working great for WAN flows (with large RTT).
Wifi in particular gets a significant boost _when_ ACK are suppressed.
Add a new sysctl so that we can tune the very conservative 5 % value
that has been used so far in this formula, so that small RTT flows
can benefit from this feature.
delay = min ( 5 % of RTT, 1 ms)
This patch adds new tcp_comp_sack_rtt_percent sysctl
to ease experiments and tuning.
Given that we cap the delay to 1ms (tcp_comp_sack_delay_ns sysctl),
set the default value to 33 %.
Quoting Neal Cardwell ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/CADVnQymZ1tFnEA1Q=vtECs0=Db7zHQ8=+WCQtnhHFVbEOzjVnQ@mail.gmail.com/ )
The rationale for 33% is basically to try to facilitate pipelining,
where there are always at least 3 ACKs and 3 GSO/TSO skbs per SRTT, so
that the path can maintain a budget for 3 full-sized GSO/TSO skbs "in
flight" at all times:
+ 1 skb in the qdisc waiting to be sent by the NIC next
+ 1 skb being sent by the NIC (being serialized by the NIC out onto the wire)
+ 1 skb being received and aggregated by the receiver machine's
aggregation mechanism (some combination of LRO, GRO, and sack
compression)
Note that this is basically the same magic number (3) and the same
rationales as:
(a) tcp_tso_should_defer() ensuring that we defer sending data for no
longer than cwnd/tcp_tso_win_divisor (where tcp_tso_win_divisor = 3),
and
(b) bbr_quantization_budget() ensuring that cwnd is at least 3 GSO/TSO
skbs to maintain pipelining and full throughput at low RTTs

reqsk_timeout() is always called with @timeout being TCP_RTO_MAX.
Let's remove the arg.
As a prep for the next patch, reqsk_timeout() is moved to tcp.h
and renamed to tcp_reqsk_timeout().

Commit 5903123f66 ("tcp: Use BPF timeout setting for SYN ACK
RTO") introduced req->timeout and initialised it in 3 places:
1. reqsk_alloc() sets 0
2. inet_reqsk_alloc() sets TCP_TIMEOUT_INIT
3. tcp_conn_request() sets tcp_timeout_init()
1. has been always redundant as 2. overwrites it immediately.
2. was necessary for TFO SYN+ACK but is no longer needed after
commit 8ea731d4c2 ("tcp: Make SYN ACK RTO tunable by BPF
programs with TFO").
3. was moved to reqsk_queue_hash_req() in the previous patch.
Now, we always initialise req->timeout just before scheduling
the SYN+ACK timer:
* For non-TFO SYN+ACK : reqsk_queue_hash_req()
* For TFO SYN+ACK : tcp_fastopen_create_child()
Let's remove the redundant initialisation of req->timeout in
reqsk_alloc() and inet_reqsk_alloc().

Add support for a new DSA tagging protocol driver for the MaxLinear
GSW1xx switch family. The GSW1xx switches use a proprietary 8-byte
special tag inserted between the source MAC address and the EtherType
field to indicate the source and destination ports for frames
traversing the CPU port.
Implement the tag handling logic to insert the special tag on transmit
and parse it on receive.

syzbot reported[1] a use-after-free when deleting an expired fdb. It is
due to a race condition between learning still happening and a port being
deleted, after all its fdbs have been flushed. The port's state has been
toggled to disabled so no learning should happen at that time, but if we
have MST enabled, it will bypass the port's state, that together with VLAN
filtering disabled can lead to fdb learning at a time when it shouldn't
happen while the port is being deleted. VLAN filtering must be disabled
because we flush the port VLANs when it's being deleted which will stop
learning. This fix adds a check for the port's vlan group which is
initialized to NULL when the port is getting deleted, that avoids the port
state bypass. When MST is enabled there would be a minimal new overhead
in the fast-path because the port's vlan group pointer is cache-hot.

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.
