be1f4f48ce net: sctp: Inline the functions from command.c
sctp_init_cmd_seq() and sctp_next_cmd() are only called from one place.
The call sequence for sctp_add_cmd_sf() is likely to be longer than
the inlined code.
With sctp_add_cmd_sf() inlined the compiler can optimise repeated calls.

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-07-03

Please pull this first batch of wireless updates intended for the
3.17 stream...

For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:

"The biggest thing here is probably Arik's TDLS rework, beyond that we
have smaller improvements and features like David's scanning IE thing,
Luca's queue work, some CSA work, etc. Also your PID rate control
removal, of course."

For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:

"I have here a whole bunch of various things. Andy contributes
better debug prints for dvm specific flows and a module parameter to
completely disable power save for dvm. Andrei is sharing the premises
of his work on CSA - more to come. Eran and Liad keep on working
on the new devices. I have the regular amount of BT Coex stuff and
I continue to work on the firmware error report system adding more
debug capabilities. More to come on that subject too."

On top of that, there are some cleanups to the new rsi driver, some
continuing improvements to the rtl818x drivers, and the usual bundles
of updates to ath9k, b43, mwifiex, wil6210, and a few other bits here
and there.

f266a683a4 net/hsr: Better frame dispatch
This patch removes the separate paths for frames coming from the outside, and
frames sent from the HSR device, and instead makes all frames go through
hsr_forward_skb() in hsr_forward.c. This greatly improves code readability and
also opens up the possibility for future support of the HSR Interlink device
that is the basis for HSR RedBoxes and HSR QuadBoxes, as well as VLAN
compatibility.

Other improvements:
* A reduction in the number of times an skb is copied on machines without
  HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, which improves throughput somewhat.
* Headers are now created using the standard eth_header(), and using the
  standard hard_header_len.
* Each HSR slave now gets its own private skb, so slave-specific fields can be
  correctly set.

cb1ce2ef38 ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit
Automatically generate flow labels for IPv6 packets on transmit.
The flow label is computed based on skb_get_hash. The flow label will
only automatically be set when it is zero otherwise (i.e. flow label
manager hasn't set one). This supports the transmit side functionality
of RFC 6438.

Added an IPv6 sysctl auto_flowlabels to enable/disable this behavior
system wide, and added IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket option to enable this
functionality per socket.

By default, auto flowlabels are disabled to avoid possible conflicts
with flow label manager, however if this feature proves useful we
may want to enable it by default.

It should also be noted that FreeBSD has already implemented automatic
flow labels (including the sysctl and socket option). In FreeBSD,
automatic flow labels default to enabled.

Performance impact:

Running super_netperf with 200 flows for TCP_RR and UDP_RR for
IPv6. Note that in UDP case, __skb_get_hash will be called for
every packet with explains slight regression. In the TCP case
the hash is saved in the socket so there is no regression.

Automatic flow labels disabled:

  TCP_RR:
    86.53% CPU utilization
    127/195/322 90/95/99% latencies

b73c3d0e4f net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit
For a connected socket we can precompute the flow hash for setting
in skb->hash on output. This is a performance advantage over
calculating the skb->hash for every packet on the connection. The
computation is done using the common hash algorithm to be consistent
with computations done for packets of the connection in other states
where thers is no socket (e.g. time-wait, syn-recv, syn-cookies).

This patch adds sk_txhash to the sock structure. inet_set_txhash and
ip6_set_txhash functions are added which are called from points in
TCP and UDP where socket moves to established state.

skb_set_hash_from_sk is a function which sets skb->hash from the
sock txhash value. This is called in UDP and TCP transmit path when
transmitting within the context of a socket.

Tested: ran super_netperf with 200 TCP_RR streams over a vxlan
interface (in this case skb_get_hash called on every TX packet to
create a UDP source port).

Before fix:

  95.02% CPU utilization
  154/256/505 90/95/99% latencies
  1.13042e+06 tps

  Time in functions:
    0.28% skb_flow_dissect
    0.21% __skb_get_hash

After fix:

  94.95% CPU utilization
  156/254/485 90/95/99% latencies
  1.15447e+06

  Neither __skb_get_hash nor skb_flow_dissect appear in perf

3f53bd8f8b tipc: fix link acknowledge logic in receive path
Link state acks triggered from the receive path is done before
the last received packet have been processed by the link layer.
The effect of this is that the last received packet will not be
included in the ack. This causes problems if the link window is
set to TIPC_MIN_LINK_WIN, where the ack interval will be equal to
the link tolerance, and the link enters a stop-and-go behavior.
We move the ack logic to after link state processing, just before
the packet is delivered to higher layers.

86c6a2c75a tcp: switch snt_synack back to measuring transmit time of first SYNACK
Always store in snt_synack the time at which the server received the
first client SYN and attempted to send the first SYNACK.

Recent commit aa27fc501 ("tcp: tcp_v[46]_conn_request: fix snt_synack
initialization") resolved an inconsistency between IPv4 and IPv6 in
the initialization of snt_synack. This commit brings back the idea
from 843f4a55e (tcp: use tcp_v4_send_synack on first SYN-ACK), which
was going for the original behavior of snt_synack from the commit
where it was added in 9ad7c049f0 ("tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT
sample from 3WHS for the passive open side") in v3.1.

In addition to being simpler (and probably a tiny bit faster),
unconditionally storing the time of the first SYNACK attempt has been
useful because it allows calculating a performance metric quantifying
how long it took to establish a passive TCP connection.

8f61059a96 net: sctp: improve timer slack calculation for transport HBs
RFC4960, section 8.3 says:

  On an idle destination address that is allowed to heartbeat,
  it is recommended that a HEARTBEAT chunk is sent once per RTO
  of that destination address plus the protocol parameter
  'HB.interval', with jittering of +/- 50% of the RTO value,
  and exponential backoff of the RTO if the previous HEARTBEAT
  is unanswered.

Currently, we calculate jitter via sctp_jitter() function first,
and then add its result to the current RTO for the new timeout:

  TMO = RTO + (RAND() % RTO) - (RTO / 2)
              `------------------------^-=> sctp_jitter()

Instead, we can just simplify all this by directly calculating:

  TMO = (RTO / 2) + (RAND() % RTO)

With the help of prandom_u32_max(), we don't need to open code
our own global PRNG, but can instead just make use of the per
CPU implementation of prandom with better quality numbers. Also,
we can now spare us the conditional for divide by zero check
since no div or mod operation needs to be used. Note that
prandom_u32_max() won't emit the same result as a mod operation,
but we really don't care here as we only want to have a random
number scaled into RTO interval.

Note, exponential RTO backoff is handeled elsewhere, namely in
sctp_do_8_2_transport_strike().

9fe516ba3f inet: move ipv6only in sock_common
When an UDP application switches from AF_INET to AF_INET6 sockets, we
have a small performance degradation for IPv4 communications because of
extra cache line misses to access ipv6only information.

This can also be noticed for TCP listeners, as ipv6_only_sock() is also
used from __inet_lookup_listener()->compute_score()

This is magnified when SO_REUSEPORT is used.

Move ipv6only into struct sock_common so that it is available at
no extra cost in lookups.

8788370a1d pktgen: RCU-ify "if_list" to remove lock in next_to_run()
The if_lock()/if_unlock() in next_to_run() adds a significant
overhead, because its called for every packet in busy loop of
pktgen_thread_worker().  (Thomas Graf originally pointed me
at this lock problem).

Removing these two "LOCK" operations should in theory save us approx
16ns (8ns x 2), as illustrated below we do save 16ns when removing
the locks and introducing RCU protection.

Performance data with CLONE_SKB==100000, TX-size=512, rx-usecs=30:
 (single CPU performance, ixgbe 10Gbit/s, E5-2630)
 * Prev   : 5684009 pps --> 175.93ns (1/5684009*10^9)
 * RCU-fix: 6272204 pps --> 159.43ns (1/6272204*10^9)
 * Diff   : +588195 pps --> -16.50ns

To understand this RCU patch, I describe the pktgen thread model
below.

In pktgen there is several kernel threads, but there is only one CPU
running each kernel thread.  Communication with the kernel threads are
done through some thread control flags.  This allow the thread to
change data structures at a know synchronization point, see main
thread func pktgen_thread_worker().

Userspace changes are communicated through proc-file writes.  There
are three types of changes, general control changes "pgctrl"
(func:pgctrl_write), thread changes "kpktgend_X"
(func:pktgen_thread_write), and interface config changes "etcX@N"
(func:pktgen_if_write).

Userspace "pgctrl" and "thread" changes are synchronized via the mutex
pktgen_thread_lock, thus only a single userspace instance can run.
The mutex is taken while the packet generator is running, by pgctrl
"start".  Thus e.g. "add_device" cannot be invoked when pktgen is
running/started.

All "pgctrl" and all "thread" changes, except thread "add_device",
communicate via the thread control flags.  The main problem is the
exception "add_device", that modifies threads "if_list" directly.

Fortunately "add_device" cannot be invoked while pktgen is running.
But there exists a race between "rem_device_all" and "add_device"
(which normally don't occur, because "rem_device_all" waits 125ms
before returning). Background'ing "rem_device_all" and running
"add_device" immediately allow the race to occur.

The race affects the threads (list of devices) "if_list".  The if_lock
is used for protecting this "if_list".  Other readers are given
lock-free access to the list under RCU read sections.

Note, interface config changes (via proc) can occur while pktgen is
running, which worries me a bit.  I'm assuming proc_remove() takes
appropriate locks, to assure no writers exists after proc_remove()
finish.

I've been running a script exercising the race condition (leading me
to fix the proc_remove order), without any issues.  The script also
exercises concurrent proc writes, while the interface config is
getting removed.

baac167b70 pktgen: avoid expensive set_current_state() call in loop
Avoid calling set_current_state() inside the busy-loop in
pktgen_thread_worker().  In case of pkt_dev->delay, then it is still
used/enabled in pktgen_xmit() via the spin() call.

The set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE) uses a xchg, which implicit
is LOCK prefixed.  I've measured the asm LOCK operation to take approx
8ns on this E5-2630 CPU.  Performance increase corrolate with this
measurement.

Performance data with CLONE_SKB==100000, rx-usecs=30:
 (single CPU performance, ixgbe 10Gbit/s, E5-2630)
 * Prev:  5454050 pps --> 183.35ns (1/5454050*10^9)
 * Now:   5684009 pps --> 175.93ns (1/5684009*10^9)
 * Diff:  +229959 pps -->  -7.42ns

b0ab2fabb5 rtnetlink: allow to register ops without ops->setup set
So far, it is assumed that ops->setup is filled up. But there might be
case that ops might make sense even without ->setup. In that case,
forbid to newlink and dellink.

This allows to register simple rtnl link ops containing only ->kind.
That allows consistent way of passing device kind (either device-kind or
slave-kind) to userspace.

d933319657 ipv6: Allow accepting RA from local IP addresses.
This can be used in virtual networking applications, and
may have other uses as well.  The option is disabled by
default.

A specific use case is setting up virtual routers, bridges, and
hosts on a single OS without the use of network namespaces or
virtual machines.  With proper use of ip rules, routing tables,
veth interface pairs and/or other virtual interfaces,
and applications that can bind to interfaces and/or IP addresses,
it is possibly to create one or more virtual routers with multiple
hosts attached.  The host interfaces can act as IPv6 systems,
with radvd running on the ports in the virtual routers.  With the
option provided in this patch enabled, those hosts can now properly
obtain IPv6 addresses from the radvd.
