Cache the congestion window setting that was determined during a call's
transmission phase when it finishes so that it can be used by the next call
to the same peer, thereby shortcutting the slow-start algorithm.
The value is stored in the rxrpc_peer struct and is accessed without
locking. Each call takes the value that happens to be there when it starts
and just overwrites the value when it finishes.

Florian Weimer seems to have a glibc test-case which requires that
loopback interfaces does not get ICMP ratelimited. This was broken by
commit c0303efeab73 ("net: reduce cycles spend on ICMP replies that
gets rate limited").
An ICMP response will usually be routed back-out the same incoming
interface. Thus, take advantage of this and skip global ICMP
ratelimit when the incoming device is loopback. In the unlikely event
that the outgoing it not loopback, due to strange routing policy
rules, ICMP rate limiting still works via peer ratelimiting via
icmpv4_xrlim_allow(). Thus, we should still comply with RFC1812
(section 4.3.2.8 "Rate Limiting").
This seems to fix the reproducer given by Florian. While still
avoiding to perform expensive and unneeded outgoing route lookup for
rate limited packets (in the non-loopback case).

This change remove some more duplicated code reusing skb_unref() in

unlikely(!skb) test - napi_consume_skb() already check it a few lines
above - but the compiler is smart enough to optimize the duplicated

There are two problems:
1) In MIPS the __NR_* macros expand to an expression, this causes the
sections of the object file to be named like:
.
.
.
[ 5] kprobe/(5000 + 1) PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000160 ...
[ 6] kprobe/(5000 + 0) PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000258 ...
[ 7] kprobe/(5000 + 9) PROGBITS 0000000000000000 000348 ...
.
.
.
The fix here is to use the "asm_offsets" trick to evaluate the macros
in the C compiler and generate a header file with a usable form of the
macros.
2) MIPS syscall numbers start at 5000, so we need a bigger map to hold
the sub-programs.

On MIPS, conditional branches can only span 32k instructions. To
exceed this limit in the JIT with the BPF maximum of 4k insns, we need
to choose eBPF insns that expand to more than 8 machine instructions.
Use BPF_LD_ABS as it is quite complex. This forces the JIT to invert
the sense of the branch to branch around a long jump to the end.
This (somewhat) verifies that the branch inversion logic and target
address calculation of the long jumps are done correctly.

Currently, verifier will reject a program if it contains an
narrower load from the bpf context structure. For example,
__u8 h = __sk_buff->hash, or
__u16 p = __sk_buff->protocol
__u32 sample_period = bpf_perf_event_data->sample_period
which are narrower loads of 4-byte or 8-byte field.
This patch solves the issue by:
. Introduce a new parameter ctx_field_size to carry the
field size of narrower load from prog type
specific *__is_valid_access validator back to verifier.
. The non-zero ctx_field_size for a memory access indicates
(1). underlying prog type specific convert_ctx_accesses
supporting non-whole-field access
(2). the current insn is a narrower or whole field access.
. In verifier, for such loads where load memory size is
less than ctx_field_size, verifier transforms it
to a full field load followed by proper masking.
. Currently, __sk_buff and bpf_perf_event_data->sample_period
are supporting narrowing loads.
. Narrower stores are still not allowed as typical ctx stores
are just normal stores.
Because of this change, some tests in verifier will fail and
these tests are removed. As a bonus, rename some out of bound
__sk_buff->cb access to proper field name and remove two
redundant "skb cb oob" tests.

It is not necessary in this case, we already have RTNL lock here
so it is enough to protect concurrent writers. For the reader,
i.e. tcf_act_police(), it needs to make decision based on this
rate estimator, in the worst case we drop more/less packets than
necessary while changing the rate in parallel, it is still acceptable.

The ixgbe driver has logic to handle only one Tx timestamp at a time,
using a state bit lock to avoid multiple requests at once.
It may be possible, if incredibly unlikely, that a Tx timestamp event is
requested but never completes. Since we use an interrupt scheme to
determine when the Tx timestamp occurred we would never clear the state
bit in this case.
Add an ixgbe_ptp_tx_hang() function similar to the already existing
ixgbe_ptp_rx_hang() function. This function runs in the watchdog routine
and makes sure we eventually recover from this case instead of
permanently disabling Tx timestamps.
Note: there is no currently known way to cause this without hacking the
driver code to force it.

The ixgbe driver uses a state bit lock to avoid handling more than one Tx
timestamp request at once. This is required because hardware is limited
to a single set of registers for Tx timestamps.
The state bit lock is not properly cleaned up during
ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring() if the transmit fails such as due to DMA or TSO
failure. In some hardware this results in blocking timestamps until the
service task times out. In other hardware this results in a permanent
lock of the timestamp bit because we never receive an interrupt
indicating the timestamp occurred, since indeed the packet was never
transmitted.
Fix this by checking for DMA and TSO errors in ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring() and
properly cleaning up after ourselves when these occur.

Hardware related to the ixgbe driver is limited to handling a single Tx
timestamp request at a time. Thus, the driver ignores requests for Tx
timestamp while waiting for the current request to finish. It uses
a state bit lock which enforces that only one timestamp request is
honored at a time.
Unfortunately this suffers from a simple race condition. The bit lock is
not cleared until after skb_tstamp_tx() is called notifying applications
of a new Tx timestamp. Even a well behaved application sending only one
packet at a time and waiting for a response can wake up and send a new
packet before the bit lock is cleared. This results in needlessly
dropping some Tx timestamp requests.
We can fix this by unlocking the state bit as soon as we read the
Timestamp register, as this is the first point at which it is safe to
unlock.
To avoid issues with the skb pointer, we'll use a copy of the pointer
and set the global variable in the driver structure to NULL first. This
ensures that the next timestamp request does not modify our local copy
of the skb pointer.
This ensures that well behaved applications do not accidentally race
with the unlock bit. Obviously an application which sends multiple Tx
timestamp requests at once will still only timestamp one packet at
a time. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this.

The IBM vNIC protocol provides support for the user to initiate
a failover from the client LPAR in case the current backing infrastructure
is deemed inadequate or in an error state.
Support for two H_VIOCTL sub-commands for vNIC devices are required
to implement this function. These commands are H_GET_SESSION_TOKEN
and H_SESSION_ERR_DETECTED.
"[H_GET_SESSION_TOKEN] is used to obtain a session token from a VNIC client
adapter. This token is opaque to the caller and is intended to be used in
tandem with the SESSION_ERROR_DETECTED vioctl subfunction."
"[H_SESSION_ERR_DETECTED] is used to report that the currently active
backing device for a VNIC client adapter is behaving poorly, and that
the hypervisor should attempt to fail over to a different backing device,
if one is available."
To provide tools access to this functionality the vNIC driver creates a
sysfs file that, when written to, will send a request to pHyp to failover
to a different backing device.

where the struct ip_sf_list's were already freed by:
kfree+0xe8/0x2b0 mm/slub.c:3882
ip_mc_clear_src+0x69/0x1c0 net/ipv4/igmp.c:2078
ip_mc_dec_group+0x19a/0x470 net/ipv4/igmp.c:1618
ip_mc_drop_socket+0x145/0x230 net/ipv4/igmp.c:2609
inet_release+0x4e/0x1c0 net/ipv4/af_inet.c:411
sock_release+0x8d/0x1e0 net/socket.c:597
sock_close+0x16/0x20 net/socket.c:1072
This happens because we don't hold pmc->lock in ip_mc_clear_src()
and a parallel mr_ifc_timer timer could jump in and access them.
The RCU lock is there but it is merely for pmc itself, this
spinlock could actually ensure we don't access them in parallel.
Thanks to Eric and Long for discussion on this bug.

On GOP port 0 two MAC modes are available: GMAC and XLG. The XLG MAC is
used for 10G connectivity. This patch adds a basic 10G support by
allowing to use the XLG MAC on port 0 and by reworking the
port_enable/disable functions so that the XLG MAC is configured when
using 10G.

Getting the device version out of the driver really aids debugging.
