Introduce a new API to register RPC services on IPv6 interfaces to allow
the NFS server and lockd to advertise on IPv6 networks.
Unlike rpcb_register(), the new rpcb_v4_register() function uses rpcbind
protocol version 4 to contact the local rpcbind daemon. The version 4
SET/UNSET procedures allow services to register address families besides
AF_INET, register at specific network interfaces, and register transport
protocols besides UDP and TCP. All of this functionality is exposed via
the new rpcb_v4_register() kernel API.
A user-space rpcbind daemon implementation that supports version 4 of the
rpcbind protocol is required in order to make use of this new API.
Note that rpcbind version 3 is sufficient to support the new rpcbind
facilities listed above, but most extant implementations use version 4.

The tpacket_hdr is not 64 bit clean due to use of an unsigned long

Add support for a version 2 tpacket protocol that removes these
limitations.
Userspace can query the header size through a new getsockopt option
and change the protocol version through a setsockopt option. The
changes needed to switch to the new protocol version are:
1. replace struct tpacket_hdr by struct tpacket2_hdr
2. query header len and save
3. set protocol version to 2
- set up ring as usual
4. for getting the sockaddr_ll, use (void *)hdr + TPACKET_ALIGN(hdrlen)
instead of (void *)hdr + TPACKET_ALIGN(sizeof(struct tpacket_hdr))
Steps 2 and 4 can be omitted if the struct sockaddr_ll isn't needed.

This patch simplifies and speeds up TIPC's algorithm for identifying
on-node and off-node destinations that overlap a multicast name
sequence range. Rather than traversing the list of all known name
publications within the cluster, it now traverses the (potentially
much shorter) list of name publications made by the node itself, and
determines if any off-node destinations exist by comparing the sizes
of the two lists. (Since the node list must be a subset of the
cluster list, a difference in sizes means that at least one off-node
destination must exist.)

Currently, almost every interface type has a 'bss' pointer
pointing to BSS information. This BSS information, however,
is for a _local_ BSS, not for the BSS we joined, so having
it on a STA mode interface makes little sense, but now they
have it pointing to the master device, which is an AP mode
virtual interface. However, except for some bitrate control
data, this pointer is only used in AP/VLAN modes (for power
saving stations.)
Overall, it is not necessary to even have the master netdev
be a valid virtual interface, and it doesn't have to be on
the list of interfaces either.
This patch changes the master netdev to be special, it now
- no longer is on the list of virtual interfaces, which
lets me remove a lot of tests for that
- no longer has sub_if_data attached, since that isn't used
Additionally, this patch changes some vlan/ap mode handling
that is related to these 'bss' pointers described above (but
in the VLAN case they actually make sense because there they
point to the AP they belong to); it also adds some debugging
code to IEEE80211_DEV_TO_SUB_IF to validate it is not called
on the master netdev any more.

This fixes a bug in the logic of the TFRC loss detection:
* new_loss_indicated() should not be called while a loss is pending;
* but the code allows this;
* thus, for two subsequent gaps in the sequence space, when loss_count
has not yet reached NDUPACK=3, the loss_count is falsely reduced to 1.
To avoid further and similar problems, all loss handling and loss detection is
now done inside tfrc_rx_hist_handle_loss(), using an appropriate routine to
track new losses.
Further changes:
----------------
* added a reminder that no RX history operations should be performed when
rx_handle_loss() has identified a (new) loss, since the function takes

Add a XFRM_STATE_AF_UNSPEC flag to handle the AF_UNSPEC behavior for
the selector family. Userspace applications can set this flag to leave
the selector family of the xfrm_state unspecified. This can be used
to to handle inter family tunnels if the selector is not set from
userspace.

In commit a07f5f508a "[IPV4] fib_trie: style
cleanup", the changes to check_leaf() and fn_trie_lookup() were wrong - where
fn_trie_lookup() would previously return a negative error value from
check_leaf(), it now returns 0.
Now fn_trie_lookup() doesn't appear to care about plen, so we can revert
check_leaf() to returning the error value.

When a conntrack entry is destroyed in process context and destruction
is interrupted by packet processing and the packet is an attempt to
reopen a closed connection, TCP conntrack tries to kill the old entry
itself and returns NF_REPEAT to pass the packet through the hook
again. This may lead to an endless loop: TCP conntrack repeatedly
finds the old entry, but can not kill it itself since destruction
is already in progress, but destruction in process context can not
complete since TCP conntrack is keeping the CPU busy.
Drop the packet in TCP conntrack if we can't kill the connection
ourselves to avoid this.

This removes the fast_start parameter from the rc_pid parameters
information and instead uses the parameter macro when initializing
the rc_pid state. Since the parameter is only used on initialization,
there is no point of making exporting it via debugfs. This also fixes
uninitialized memory references to the fast_start and norm_offset
parameters detected by the kmemcheck utility. Thanks to Vegard Nossum
for reporting the bug.

If another task is busy in rpcb_getport_async number, it is more efficient
to have it wake us up when it has finished instead of arbitrarily sleeping
for 5 seconds.
Also ensure that rpcb_wake_rpcbind_waiters() is called regardless of
whether or not rpcb_getport_done() gets called.

Some server vendors support the higher versions of rpcbind only for
AF_INET6. The kernel doesn't need to use v3 or v4 for AF_INET anyway,
so change the kernel's rpcbind client to query AF_INET servers over
rpcbind v2 only.
This has a few interesting benefits:
1. If the rpcbind request is going over TCP, and the server doesn't
support rpcbind versions 3 or 4, the client reduces by two the number
of ephemeral ports left in TIME_WAIT for each rpcbind request. This
will help during NFS mount storms.
2. The rpcbind interaction with servers that don't support rpcbind
versions 3 or 4 will use less network traffic. Also helpful
during mount storms.
3. We can eliminate the kernel build option that controls whether the
kernel's rpcbind client uses rpcbind version 3 and 4 for AF_INET
servers. Less complicated kernel configuration...

Clean up: Change the version 2 procedure name to GETPORT. It's the same
procedure number as GETADDR, but version 2 implementations usually refer
to it as GETPORT.
This also now matches the procedure name used in the version 2 procedure
entry in the rpcb_next_version[] array, making it slightly less confusing.

The RPC client uses the rq_xtime field in each RPC request to determine the
round-trip time of the request. Currently, the rq_xtime field is
initialized by each transport just before it starts enqueing a request to
be sent. However, transports do not handle initializing this value
consistently; sometimes they don't initialize it at all.
To make the measurement of request round-trip time consistent for all
RPC client transport capabilities, pull rq_xtime initialization into the
RPC client's generic transport logic. Now all transports will get a
standardized RTT measure automatically, from:
xprt_transmit()
to
xprt_complete_rqst()
This makes round-trip time calculation more accurate for the TCP transport.
The socket ->sendmsg() method can return "-EAGAIN" if the socket's output
buffer is full, so the TCP transport's ->send_request() method may call
the ->sendmsg() method repeatedly until it gets all of the request's bytes
queued in the socket's buffer.
Currently, the TCP transport sets the rq_xtime field every time through
that loop so the final value is the timestamp just before the *last* call
to the underlying socket's ->sendmsg() method. After this patch, the
rq_xtime field contains a timestamp that reflects the time just before the
*first* call to ->sendmsg().
This is consequential under heavy workloads because large requests often
take multiple ->sendmsg() calls to get all the bytes of a request queued.
The TCP transport causes the request to sleep until the remote end of the
socket has received enough bytes to clear space in the socket's local
output buffer. This delay can be quite significant.
The method introduced by this patch is a more accurate measure of RTT
for stream transports, since the server can cause enough back pressure
to delay (ie increase the latency of) requests from the client.
Additionally, this patch corrects the behavior of the RDMA transport, which
entirely neglected to initialize the rq_xtime field. RPC performance
metrics for RDMA transports now display correct RPC request round trip
times.
