61d46bf979 macvtap: correctly linearize skb when zerocopy is used
Userspace may produce vectors greater than MAX_SKB_FRAGS. When we try to
linearize parts of the skb to let the rest of iov to be fit in
the frags, we need count copylen into linear when calling macvtap_alloc_skb()
instead of partly counting it into data_len. Since this breaks
zerocopy_sg_from_iovec() since its inner counter assumes nr_frags should
be zero at beginning. This cause nr_frags to be increased wrongly without
setting the correct frags.

This bug were introduced from b92946e291
(macvtap: zerocopy: validate vectors before building skb).

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fec_main.c

The GRE conflict is between a bug fix (kfree_skb --> kfree_skb_list)
and the splitting of the gre.c code into seperate files.

The FEC conflict was two sets of changes adding ethtool support code
in an "!CONFIG_M5272" CPP protected block.

Finally the sh_eth.c conflict was between one commit add bits set
in the .eesr_err_check mask whilst another commit removed the
.tx_error_check member and assignments.

3e4f8b7873 macvtap: Perform GSO on forwarding path.
When macvtap forwards skb to its tap, it needs to check
if GSO needs to be performed.  This is sometimes necessary
when the HW device performed GRO, but the guest reading
from the tap does not support it (ex: Windows 7).

2be5c76794 macvtap: Let TUNSETOFFLOAD actually controll offload features.
When the user issues TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl, macvtap does not do
anything other then to verify arguments.  This patch adds
functionality to allow users to actually control offload features.
NETIF_F_GSO and NETIF_F_GRO are always on, but the rest of the
features can be controlled.

ac4e4af1e5 macvtap: Consistently use rcu functions
Currently macvtap uses rcu_bh functions in its
user facing fuction macvtap_get_user() and macvtap_put_user().
However, its packet handlers use normal rcu as the rcu_read_lock()
is taken in netif_receive_skb().  We can safely discontinue
the usage or rcu with bh disabled.

441ac0fcaa macvtap: Convert to using rtnl lock
Macvtap uses a private lock to protect the relationship between
macvtap_queue and macvlan_dev.  The private lock is not needed
since the relationship is managed by user via open(), release(),
and dellink() calls.  dellink() already happens under rtnl, so
we can safely convert open() and release(), and use it in ioctl()
as well.

Suggested by Eric Dumazet.

376b1aabe1 macvtap: eliminate linear search
Linear search were used in both get_slot() and macvtap_get_queue(), this is
because:

- macvtap didn't reshuffle the array of taps when create or destroy a queue, so
  when adding a new queue, macvtap must do linear search to find a location for
  the new queue. This will also complicate the TUNSETQUEUE implementation for
  multiqueue API.
- the queue itself didn't track the queue index, so the we must do a linear
  search in the array to find the location of a existed queue.

The solution is straightforward: reshuffle the array and introduce a queue_index
to macvtap_queue.

Complier may generate codes that re-read the vlan->numvtaps during
macvtap_get_queue(). This may lead a race if vlan->numvtaps were changed in the
same time and which can lead unexpected result (e.g. very huge value).

We need prevent the compiler from generating such codes by adding an

Set the transport header for 1) some drivers (e.g ixgbe) needs l4 header 2)
precise packet length estimation (introduced in 1def9238) needs l4 header to

For the packets with partial checksum, the patch just set the transport header
to csum_start. Otherwise tries to use skb_flow_dissect() to get l4 offset, if it
fails, just pretend no l4 header.

c9af6db4c1 net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.
Patch cef401de7b (net: fix possible wrong checksum
generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by
defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type.
net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation
offload of such packets without the feature.

Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses
same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag
SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by
the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared
info tx_flags rather than gso_type.

tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with
shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to
GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this.

cef401de7b net: fix possible wrong checksum generation
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate
wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten
by the user between the checksum computation and transmit.

He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be
avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg().

This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set
in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be
modified by the user.

Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(),
sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

Tested:

$ netperf -H 7.7.8.84

Performance of the SENDFILE is impacted by the extra allocation and
copy, and because we use order-0 pages, while the TCP_STREAM uses
bigger pages.

e09eff7fc1 macvtap: Fix the minor device number allocation
On systems that create and delete lots of dynamic devices the
31bit linux ifindex fails to fit in the 16bit macvtap minor,
resulting in unusable macvtap devices.  I have systems running
automated tests that that hit this condition in just a few days.

Use a linux idr allocator to track which mavtap minor numbers
are available and and to track the association between macvtap
minor numbers and macvtap network devices.

Remove the unnecessary unneccessary check to see if the network
device we have found is indeed a macvtap device.  With macvtap
specific data structures it is impossible to find any other
kind of networking device.

Increase the macvtap minor range from 65536 to the full 20 bits
that is supported by linux device numbers.  It doesn't solve the
original problem but there is no penalty for a larger minor
device range.

There's no need for the guest to validate the checksum if it have been
validated by host nics. So this patch introduces a new flag -
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID which is used to bypass the checksum
examing in guest. The backend (tap/macvtap) may set this flag when
met skbs with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to save cpu utilization.

No feature negotiation is needed as old driver just ignore this flag.

Iperf shows 12%-30% performance improvement for UDP traffic. For TCP,
when gro is on no difference as it produces skb with partial
checksum. But when gro is disabled, 20% or even higher improvement
could be measured by netperf.

1ac9ad1394 net: remove dev_txq_stats_fold()
After recent changes, (percpu stats on vlan/tunnels...), we dont need
anymore per struct netdev_queue tx_bytes/tx_packets/tx_dropped counters.

Only remaining users are ixgbe, sch_teql, gianfar & macvlan :

1) ixgbe can be converted to use existing tx_ring counters.

2) macvlan incremented txq->tx_dropped, it can use the
dev->stats.tx_dropped counter.

3) sch_teql : almost revert ab35cd4b8f (Use net_device internal stats)
    Now we have ndo_get_stats64(), use it, even for "unsigned long"
fields (No need to bring back a struct net_device_stats)

4) gianfar adds a stats structure per tx queue to hold
tx_bytes/tx_packets

This removes a lockdep warning (and possible lockup) in rndis gadget,
calling dev_get_stats() from hard IRQ context.

a macvtap device can be opened multiple times and the fd's can be
used to register eg, as backend for vhost.

8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.
