====================
tipc: improve broadcast implementation
The TIPC broadcast link implementation is currently complex and hard to
follow. It also incurs some amount of code and structure duplication,
something that can be reduced significantly with a little effort.
This commit series introduces a number of improvements which address
both the locking structure, the code/structure duplication issue, and
the overall readbility of the code.
The series consists of three main parts:
1-7: Adaptation to the new link structure, and preparation for the next
step. In particular, we want the broadcast transmission link to
have a life cycle that is longer than any of its potential (unicast
and broadcast receive links) users. This eliminates the need to
always test for the presence of this link before accessing it.
8-10: This is what is really new in this series. Commit #9 is by far
the largest and most important one, because it moves most of
the broadcast functionality into link.c, partially reusing the
fields and functionality of the unicast link. The removal of
the "node_map" infrastructure in commit #10 is also an important
achievement.
11-16: Some improvements leveraging the changes made in the previous
commits.
The series needs commit
53387c4e22ac ("tipc: extend broadcast link window size")
and commit
e53567948f82 ("tipc: conditionally expand buffer headroom over udp tunnel")
which are both present in 'net' but not yet in 'net-next', to apply cleanly.

tipc: ensure binding table initial distribution is sent via first link
Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between
two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk"
update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization
message, i.e., via the first link that is established.
This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link
come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well
pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct
initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened.
This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee.
1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the
"active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0.
(This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep
the current, opposite order)
2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when
it sends it binding table updates.
The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should
be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small
fraction of the total traffic.

tipc: simplify bearer level broadcast
Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast
destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to
have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including
a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers
and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is
also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local
broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to
eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped
multicast in the future.
A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full
set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating
how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol
is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the
nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast
protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the
moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the
retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be
acknowledged by the correct set of destinations.

tipc: make struct tipc_link generic to support broadcast
Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see
that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the
current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast.
The following changes are introduced here:
- A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many
peers need to ack a packet before it can be released.
- A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how
many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released.
- A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer
has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to
start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid
double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of
packets as a result.
- A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts
from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the
transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted
packets on the broadcast media.
When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits,
we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance.

Selection of the path for a multipath route is done using a hash of:

ixgbe, ixgbevf: Add new mbox API xcast mode
The limitation of the number of multicast address for VF is not enough
for the large scale server with SR-IOV feature. IPv6 requires the multicast
MAC address for each IP address to handle the Neighbor Solicitation
message. We couldn't assign over 30 IPv6 addresses to a single VF.
This patch introduces the new mailbox API, IXGBE_VF_UPDATE_XCAST_MODE,
to update multicast mode of VF. This adds 3 modes;
- NONE only L2 exact match addresses or Flow Director enabled
- MULTI BAM and ROMPE set
- ALLMULTI BAM, ROMPE and MPE set
If a guest VF user wants over 30 MAC multicast addresses, set IFF_ALLMULTI
to request PF to update xcast mode to enable VF multicast promiscuous mode.
On the other hand, enabling VF multicast promiscuous mode may affect
security and performance in the network of the NIC. Only trusted VF can
enable multicast promiscuous mode. The behavior of untrusted VF is the
same as previous version.

tcp/dccp: fix hashdance race for passive sessions
Multiple cpus can process duplicates of incoming ACK messages
matching a SYN_RECV request socket. This is a rare event under
normal operations, but definitely can happen.
Only one must win the race, otherwise corruption would occur.
To fix this without adding new atomic ops, we use logic in
inet_ehash_nolisten() to detect the request was present in the same
ehash bucket where we try to insert the new child.
If request socket was not found, we have to undo the child creation.
This actually removes a spin_lock()/spin_unlock() pair in

Using the wmb barrier insures that the descriptor is updated before the

ipv6: protect mtu calculation of wrap-around and infinite loop by rounding issues
Raw sockets with hdrincl enabled can insert ipv6 extension headers
right into the data stream. In case we need to fragment those packets,
we reparse the options header to find the place where we can insert
the fragment header. If the extension headers exceed the link's MTU we
actually cannot make progress in such a case.
Instead of ending up in broken arithmetic or rounding towards 0 and
entering an endless loop in ip6_fragment, just prevent those cases by
aborting early and signal -EMSGSIZE to user space.

overflow-arith: begin to add support for overflow builtin functions
The idea of the overflow-arith.h header is to collect overflow checking
functions in one central place.
If gcc compiler supports the __builtin_overflow_* builtins we use them
because they might give better performance, otherwise the code falls
back to normal overflow checking functions.
The builtin_overflow functions are supported by gcc-5 and clang. The
matter of supporting clang is to just provide a corresponding
CC_HAVE_BUILTIN_OVERFLOW, because the specific overflow checking builtins
don't differ between gcc and clang.
I just provide overflow_usub function here as I intend this to get merged
into net, more functions will definitely follow as they are needed.

tcp: allow dctcp alpha to drop to zero
If alpha is strictly reduced by alpha >> dctcp_shift_g and if alpha is less
than 1 << dctcp_shift_g, then alpha may never reach zero. For example,
given shift_g=4 and alpha=15, alpha >> dctcp_shift_g yields 0 and alpha
remains 15. The effect isn't noticeable in this case below cwnd=137, but
could gradually drive uncongested flows with leftover alpha down to
cwnd=137. A larger dctcp_shift_g would have a greater effect.
This change causes alpha=15 to drop to 0 instead of being decrementing by 1
as it would when alpha=16. However, it requires one less conditional to
implement since it doesn't have to guard against subtracting 1 from 0U. A
decay of 15 is not unreasonable since an equal or greater amount occurs at
alpha >= 240.

netlink: fix locking around NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS
Currently, NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS grabs the netlink table while copying
the membership state to user-space. However, grabing the netlink table is
effectively a write_lock_irq(), and as such we should not be triggering
page-faults in the critical section.
This can be easily reproduced by the following snippet:
int s = socket(AF_NETLINK, SOCK_RAW, NETLINK_ROUTE);
void *p = mmap(0, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANON, -1, 0);
int r = getsockopt(s, 0x10e, 9, p, (void*)((char*)p + 4092));
This should work just fine, but currently triggers EFAULT and a possible
WARN_ON below handle_mm_fault().
Fix this by reducing locking of NETLINK_LIST_MEMBERSHIPS to a read-side
lock. The write-lock was overkill in the first place, and the read-lock
allows page-faults just fine.

====================
bpf_perf_event_output helper
Over the last year there were multiple attempts to let eBPF programs
output data into perf events by He Kuang and Wangnan.
The last one was:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/20/736
It was almost perfect with exception that all bpf programs would sent
data into one global perf_event.
This patch set takes different approach by letting user space
open independent PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT events, so that program
output won't collide.
Wangnan is working on corresponding perf patches.

samples: bpf: add bpf_perf_event_output example
Performance test and example of bpf_perf_event_output().
kprobe is attached to sys_write() and trivial bpf program streams
pid+cookie into userspace via PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT event.
Usage:
$ sudo ./bld_x64/samples/bpf/trace_output
recv
2968913 events per sec

bpf: introduce bpf_perf_event_output() helper
This helper is used to send raw data from eBPF program into
special PERF_TYPE_SOFTWARE/PERF_COUNT_SW_BPF_OUTPUT perf_event.
User space needs to perf_event_open() it (either for one or all cpus) and
store FD into perf_event_array (similar to bpf_perf_event_read() helper)
before eBPF program can send data into it.
Today the programs triggered by kprobe collect the data and either store
it into the maps or print it via bpf_trace_printk() where latter is the debug
facility and not suitable to stream the data. This new helper replaces
such bpf_trace_printk() usage and allows programs to have dedicated
channel into user space for post-processing of the raw data collected.

perf: pad raw data samples automatically
Instead of WARN_ON in perf_event_output() on unpaded raw samples,
pad them automatically.
