Commit 28d82dc1c4 ("epoll: limit paths") that I did to limit the
number of possible wakeup paths in epoll is causing a few applications
to longer work (dovecot for one).
The original patch is really about limiting the amount of epoll nesting
(since epoll fds can be attached to other fds). Thus, we probably can
allow an unlimited number of paths of depth 1. My current patch limits
it at 1000. And enforce the limits on paths that have a greater depth.

This change makes it so that we always write the DMA address for the skb
itself on the same tx_buffer struct that the skb is written on. This way
we don't need the MAPPED_AS_PAGE flag and we always know it will be the
first DMA value that we will have to unmap.
In addition I have found an issue in which we were leaking a DMA mapping if
the value happened to be 0 which is possible on some platforms. In order
to resolve that I have updated the transmit path to use the length instead
of the DMA mapping in order to determine if a mapping is actually present.
One other tweak in this patch is that it only writes the olinfo information
on the first descriptor. As it turns out it isn't necessary to write it
for anything but the first descriptor so there is no need to carry it
forward.

This change makes it more likely that the descriptor flags setup will use
cmov instructions instead of conditional jumps when setting up the flags.
The advantage to this is that the code should just flow a bit more
smoothly.
To do this it is necessary to set the TX_FLAGS_CSUM bit in tx_flags when
doing TSO so that we also do the checksum in addition to the segmentation

This patch replaces the existing Rx hot-path in the ixgbe driver with a new
implementation that is based on performing a double buffered receive. The
ixgbe driver already had something similar in place for its' packet split
path, however in that case we were still receiving the header for the
packet into the sk_buff. The big change here is the entire receive path
will receive into pages only, and then pull the header out of the page and
copy it into the sk_buff data. There are several motivations behind this
approach.
First, this allows us to avoid several cache misses as we were taking a
set of cache misses for allocating the sk_buff and then another set for
receiving data into the sk_buff. We are able to avoid these misses on
receive now as we allocate the sk_buff when data is available.
Second we are able to see a considerable performance gain when an IOMMU is
enabled because we are no longer unmapping every buffer on receive.
Instead we can delay the unmap until we are unable to use the page, and
instead we can simply call sync_single_range on the half of the page that
contains new data.
Finally we are able to drop a considerable amount of code from the driver
as we no longer have to support 2 different receive modes, packet split and
one buffer. This allows us to optimize the Rx path further since less
branching is required.

I found recently that the arp_process function which handles all of our received
arp frames, is using IPV4_DEVCONF_ALL macro to check the state of the arp_process
flag. This seems wrong, as it implies that either none or all of the network
interfaces accept gratuitous arps. This patch corrects that, allowing
per-interface arp_accept configuration to deviate from the all setting. Note
this also brings us into line with the way the arp_filter setting is handled
during arp_process execution.

When writing files to afs I sometimes hit a BUG:
kernel BUG at fs/afs/rxrpc.c:179!
With a backtrace of:
afs_free_call
afs_make_call
afs_fs_store_data
afs_vnode_store_data
afs_write_back_from_locked_page
afs_writepages_region

The cause is:
ASSERT(skb_queue_empty(&call->rx_queue));
Looking at a tcpdump of the session the abort happens because we
are exceeding our disk quota:
rx abort fs reply store-data error diskquota exceeded (32)
So the abort error is valid. We hit the BUG because we haven't
freed all the resources for the call.
By freeing any skbs in call->rx_queue before calling afs_free_call
we avoid hitting leaking memory and avoid hitting the BUG.

This reverts commit d47a0ac7b6 (sch_sfq: dont put new flow at the end of

As Jesper found out, patch sounded great but has bad side effects.
In stress situation, pushing new flows in front of the queue can prevent
old flows doing any progress. Packets can stay in SFQ queue for
unlimited amount of time.
It's possible to add heuristics to limit this problem, but this would
add complexity outside of SFQ scope.
A more sensible answer to Dave Taht concerns (who reported the issued I
tried to solve in original commit) is probably to use a qdisc hierarchy
so that high prio packets dont enter a potentially crowded SFQ qdisc.
