Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c
	net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
	net/ipv4/inet_diag.c

The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky.  The conflict
hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least.  It
split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual
conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being
be_map_pci_bars().

So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top
of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since
the last time I merged.  And this worked beautifully.

The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple
overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve.

edafc132ba xen-netback: making the bandwidth limiter runtime settable
With the current netback, the bandwidth limiter's parameters are only
settable during vif setup time.  This patch register a watch on them, and
thus makes them runtime changeable.

When the watch fires, the timer is reset.  The timer's mutex is used for
fencing the change.

c8a4d29988 xen-netback: notify immediately after pushing Tx response.
This fixes a performance regression introduced by
7fbb9d8415 (xen-netback: release pending
index before pushing Tx responses)

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).

b0c21badf1 xen-netback: refactor xenvif_handle_frag_list()
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.

49d9991a18 xen-netback: unref frags when handling a from-guest skb with a frag list
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.

7fbb9d8415 xen-netback: release pending index before pushing Tx responses
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.

42b5212fee xen-netback: stop the guest rx thread after a fatal error
After commit e9d8b2c296 (xen-netback:
disable rogue vif in kthread context), a fatal (protocol) error would
leave the guest Rx thread spinning, wasting CPU time.  Commit
ecf08d2dbb (xen-netback: reintroduce
guest Rx stall detection) made this even worse by removing a
cond_resched() from this path.

Since a fatal error is non-recoverable, just allow the guest Rx thread
to exit.  This requires taking additional refs to the task so the
thread exiting early is handled safely.

1650d5455b xen-netback: always fully coalesce guest Rx packets
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).

26c0e10258 xen-netback: support frontends without feature-rx-notify again
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.

7e5d775395 xen-netback: remove unconditional __pskb_pull_tail() in guest Tx path
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).

ecf08d2dbb xen-netback: reintroduce guest Rx stall detection
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.

f48da8b14d xen-netback: fix unlimited guest Rx internal queue and carrier flapping
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.

bc96f648df xen-netback: make feature-rx-notify mandatory
Frontends that do not provide feature-rx-notify may stall because
netback depends on the notification from frontend to wake the guest Rx
thread (even if can_queue is false).

This could be fixed but feature-rx-notify was introduced in 2006 and I
am not aware of any frontends that do not implement this.

e24f8191cc xen-netback: move netif_napi_add before binding interrupt
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
add/remove calls").

Ideally function calls to create kthreads should also be moved before
binding but I intent to fix this regression with minimal changes and
refactor the code with another patch.

f34a4cf9c9 xen-netback: Turn off the carrier if the guest is not able to receive
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.

to release the frags, if there is any. For the main skb nr_frags is set to 0 to

f51de24356 xen-netback: Adding debugfs "io_ring_qX" files
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.
