This fixes a performance regression introduced by
7fbb9d8415 (xen-netback: release pending

Moving the notify outside of the spin locks means it can be delayed a
long time (if the dealloc thread is descheduled or there is an
interrupt or softirq).

When handling a from-guest frag list, xenvif_handle_frag_list()
replaces the frags before calling the destructor to clean up the
original (foreign) frags. Whilst this is safe (the destructor doesn't
actually use the frags), it looks odd.
Reorder the function to be less confusing.

Every time a VIF is destroyed up to 256 pages may be leaked if packets
with more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags were transmitted from the guest.
Even worse, if another user of ballooned pages allocated one of these
ballooned pages it would not handle the unexpectedly >1 page count
(e.g., gntdev would deadlock when unmapping a grant because the page
count would never reach 1).
When handling a from-guest skb with a frag list, unref the frags
before releasing them so they are freed correctly when the VIF is
destroyed.

If the pending indexes are released /after/ pushing the Tx response
then a stale pending index may be used if a new Tx request is
immediately pushed by the frontend. The may cause various WARNINGs or
BUGs if the stale pending index is actually still in use.
Fix this by releasing the pending index before pushing the Tx
response.
The full barrier for the pending ring update is not required since the
the Tx response push already has a suitable write barrier.

Since a fatal error is non-recoverable, just allow the guest Rx thread

Always fully coalesce guest Rx packets into the minimum number of ring
slots. Reducing the number of slots per packet has significant
performance benefits when receiving off-host traffic.
Results from XenServer's performance benchmarks:
Baseline Full coalesce
Interhost VM receive 7.2 Gb/s 11 Gb/s
Interhost aggregate 24 Gb/s 24 Gb/s
Intrahost single stream 14 Gb/s 14 Gb/s
Intrahost aggregate 34 Gb/s 34 Gb/s
However, this can increase the number of grant ops per packet which
decreases performance of backend (dom0) to VM traffic (by ~10%)
/unless/ grant copy has been optimized for adjacent ops with the same
source or destination (see "grant-table: defer releasing pages
acquired in a grant copy"[1] expected in Xen 4.6).

Commit bc96f648df (xen-netback: make
feature-rx-notify mandatory) incorrectly assumed that there were no
frontends in use that did not support this feature. But the frontend
driver in MiniOS does not and since this is used by (qemu) stubdoms,
these stopped working.
Netback sort of works as-is in this mode except:
- If there are no Rx requests and the internal Rx queue fills, only
the drain timeout will wake the thread. The default drain timeout
of 10 s would give unacceptable pauses.
- If an Rx stall was detected and the internal Rx queue is drained,
then the Rx thread would never wake.
Handle these two cases (when feature-rx-notify is disabled) by:
- Reducing the drain timeout to 30 ms.
- Disabling Rx stall detection.

Unconditionally pulling 128 bytes into the linear area is not required
for:
- security: Every protocol demux starts with pskb_may_pull() to pull
frag data into the linear area, if necessary, before looking at
headers.
- performance: Netback has already grant copied up-to 128 bytes from
the first slot of a packet into the linear area. The first slot
normally contain all the IPv4/IPv6 and TCP/UDP headers.
The unconditional pull would often copy frag data unnecessarily. This
is a performance problem when running on a version of Xen where grant
unmap avoids TLB flushes for pages which are not accessed. TLB
flushes can now be avoided for > 99% of unmaps (it was 0% before).
Grant unmap TLB flush avoidance will be available in a future version
of Xen (probably 4.6).

If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and
turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being
queued and drained when they expire.
A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a
an extended period of time (default 60 s).
If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the
expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The
carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready.
When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state
and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests.

Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and
it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are
discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken.
1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not
consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx
queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound.
The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill
leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S
slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback
queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer
slots.
2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the
(host) Tx queue is not stopped.
3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback
will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking
the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with
only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might
not fit in this).
The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib,
enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started
based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory
used by packets on the internal queue.
This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be
removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest
Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet.
skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the
current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect
when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired
skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can
be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to
wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain
timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets.
Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit.

Interrupt is enabled when bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler returns.
If there's interrupt pending interrupt handler is invoked.
NAPI needs to be initialised before binding interrupt otherwise the
interrupt handler will try to scheduling a NAPI instance that is not
initialised yet, resulting in kernel OOPS.
This fixes a regression introduced in ea2c5e13 ("xen-netback: move NAPI

Ideally function calls to create kthreads should also be moved before
binding but I intent to fix this regression with minimal changes and

Currently when the guest is not able to receive more packets, qdisc layer starts
a timer, and when it goes off, qdisc is started again to deliver a packet again.
This is a very slow way to drain the queues, consumes unnecessary resources and
slows down other guests shutdown.
This patch change the behaviour by turning the carrier off when that timer
fires, so all the packets are freed up which were stucked waiting for that vif.
Instead of the rx_queue_purge bool it uses the VIF_STATUS_RX_PURGE_EVENT bit to
signal the thread that either the timeout happened or an RX interrupt arrived,
so the thread can check what it should do. It also disables NAPI, so the guest
can't transmit, but leaves the interrupts on, so it can resurrect.
Only the queues which brought down the interface can enable it again, the bit
QUEUE_STATUS_RX_STALLED makes sure of that.

When the grant operations failed, the skb is freed up eventually, and it tries
to release the frags, if there is any. For the main skb nr_frags is set to 0 to
avoid this, but on the frag_list it iterates through the frags array, and tries
to call put_page on the page pointer which contains garbage at that time.

The error handling for skb's with frag_list was completely wrong, it caused
double unmap attempts to happen if the error was on the first skb. Move it to
the right place in the loop.

This patch adds debugfs capabilities to netback. There used to be a similar
patch floating around for classic kernel, but it used procfs. It is based on a
very similar blkback patch.
It creates xen-netback/[vifname]/io_ring_q[queueno] files, reading them output
various ring variables etc. Writing "kick" into it imitates an interrupt
happened, it can be useful to check whether the ring is just stalled due to a
missed interrupt.

The original code uses netdev->real_num_tx_queues to bookkeep number of
queues and invokes netif_set_real_num_tx_queues to set the number of
queues. However, netif_set_real_num_tx_queues doesn't allow
real_num_tx_queues to be smaller than 1, which means setting the number
to 0 will not work and real_num_tx_queues is untouched.
This is bogus when xenvif_free is invoked before any number of queues is
allocated. That function needs to iterate through all queues to free
resources. Using the wrong number of queues results in NULL pointer
dereference.
So we bookkeep the number of queues in xen-netback to solve this
problem. This fixes a regression introduced by multiqueue patchset in
3.16-rc1.
There's another bug in original code that the real number of RX queues
is never set. In current Xen multiqueue design, the number of TX queues
and RX queues are in fact the same. We need to set the numbers of TX and
RX queues to the same value.
Also remove xenvif_select_queue and leave queue selection to core
driver, as suggested by David Miller.

commit e9ce7cb6b1 ("xen-netback: Factor queue-specific data into
queue struct") added a use of vzalloc/vfree to interface.c, but
removed the #include <linux/vmalloc.h> statement at the same time,
which causes this build error:
drivers/net/xen-netback/interface.c: In function 'xenvif_free':
drivers/net/xen-netback/interface.c:754:2: error: implicit declaration of function 'vfree' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

A recent commit (a02eb4 "xen-netback: worse-case estimate in xenvif_rx_action is
underestimating") capped the slot estimation to MAX_SKB_FRAGS, but that triggers
the next BUG_ON a few lines down, as the packet consumes more slots than
estimated.
This patch introduces full_coalesce on the skb callback buffer, which is used in
start_new_rx_buffer() to decide whether netback needs coalescing more
aggresively. By doing that, no packet should need more than
(XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE + 1) / PAGE_SIZE data slots (excluding the optional GSO
slot, it doesn't carry data, therefore irrelevant in this case), as the provided
buffers are fully utilized.

Builds on the refactoring of the previous patch to implement multiple
queues between xen-netfront and xen-netback.
Writes the maximum supported number of queues into XenStore, and reads
the values written by the frontend to determine how many queues to use.
Ring references and event channels are read from XenStore on a per-queue
basis and rings are connected accordingly.
Also adds code to handle the cleanup of any already initialised queues
if the initialisation of a subsequent queue fails.
