c5c177b4ac net: Kill ratelimit.h dependency in linux/net.h
Ingo Molnar noticed that we have this unnecessary ratelimit.h
dependency in linux/net.h, which hid compilation problems from
people doing builds only with CONFIG_NET enabled.

Move this stuff out to a seperate net/net_ratelimit.h file and
include that in the only two places where this thing is needed.

86e4ca66e8 bug.h: Move ratelimit warn interfaces to ratelimit.h
As reported by Ingo Molnar, we still have configuration combinations
where use of the WARN_RATELIMIT interfaces break the build because
dependencies don't get met.

Instead of going down the long road of trying to make it so that
ratelimit.h can get included by kernel.h or asm-generic/bug.h,
just move the interface into ratelimit.h and make users have
to include that.

2907c35ff6 net: hold rtnl again in dump callbacks
Commit e67f88dd12 (dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks)
missed fact that rtnl_fill_ifinfo() must be called with rtnl held.

Because of possible deadlocks between two mutexes (cb_mutex and rtnl),
its not easy to solve this problem, so revert this part of the patch.

It also forgot one rcu_read_unlock() in FIB dump_rules()

Add one ASSERT_RTNL() in rtnl_fill_ifinfo() to remind us the rule.

be3fc413da net: use synchronize_rcu_expedited()
synchronize_rcu() is very slow in various situations (HZ=100,
CONFIG_NO_HZ=y, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n)

Extract from my (mostly idle) 8 core machine :

 synchronize_rcu() in 99985 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79982 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 87612 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79827 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 109860 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 98039 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 89841 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79842 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 80151 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 119833 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 99858 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 73999 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79855 us
 synchronize_rcu() in 79853 us

When we hold RTNL mutex, we would like to spend some cpu cycles but not
block too long other processes waiting for this mutex.

We also want to setup/dismantle network features as fast as possible at
boot/shutdown time.

This patch makes synchronize_net() call the expedited version if RTNL is
locked.

synchronize_rcu_expedited() typical delay is about 20 us on my machine.

6df427fe8c net: remove synchronize_net() from netdev_set_master()
In the old days, we used to access dev->master in __netif_receive_skb()
in a rcu_read_lock section.

So one synchronize_net() call was needed in netdev_set_master() to make
sure another cpu could not use old master while/after we release it.

We now use netdev_rx_handler infrastructure and added one
synchronize_net() call in bond_release()/bond_release_all()

Remove the obsolete synchronize_net() from netdev_set_master() and add
one in bridge del_nbp() after its netdev_rx_handler_unregister() call.

This makes enslave -d a bit faster.

268bb0ce3e sanitize <linux/prefetch.h> usage
Commit e66eed651f ("list: remove prefetching from regular list
iterators") removed the include of prefetch.h from list.h, which
uncovered several cases that had apparently relied on that rather
obscure header file dependency.

So this fixes things up a bit, using

   grep -L linux/prefetch.h $(git grep -l '[^a-z_]prefetchw*(' -- '*.[ch]')
   grep -L 'prefetchw*(' $(git grep -l 'linux/prefetch.h' -- '*.[ch]')

to guide us in finding files that either need <linux/prefetch.h>
inclusion, or have it despite not needing it.

There are more of them around (mostly network drivers), but this gets
many core ones.

449f454426 macvlan: remove one synchronize_rcu() call
When one macvlan device is dismantled, we can avoid one
synchronize_rcu() call done after deletion from hash list, since caller
will perform a synchronize_net() call after its ndo_stop() call.

Add a new netdev->dismantle field to signal this dismantle intent.

Reduces RTNL hold time.

It's way past it's usefulness.  And this gets rid of a bunch

0696c3a8ac net:set valid name before calling ndo_init()
In commit 1c5cae815d (net: call dev_alloc_name from register_netdevice),
a bug of bonding was involved, see example 1 and 2.

In register_netdevice(), the name of net_device is not valid until
dev_get_valid_name() is called. But dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init(that is
bond_init) is called before dev_get_valid_name(),
and it uses the invalid name of net_device.

I think register_netdevice() should make sure that the name of net_device is
valid before calling ndo_init().

example 1:
modprobe bonding
ls  /proc/net/bonding/bond%d

ps -eLf
root      3398     2  3398  0    1 21:34 ?        00:00:00 [bond%d]

example 2:
modprobe bonding max_bonds=3

29dd54b72b ethtool: Added support for FW dump
Added code to take FW dump via ethtool. Dump level can be controlled via setting the
dump flag. A get function is provided to query the current setting of the dump flag.
Dump data is obtained from the driver via a separate get function.

Changes from v3:
Fixed buffer length issue in ethtool_get_dump_data function.
Updated kernel doc for ethtool_dump struct and get_dump_flag function.

Changes from v2:
Provided separate commands for get flag and data.
Check for minimum of the two buffer length obtained via ethtool and driver and
use that for dump buffer
Pass up the driver return error codes up to the caller.
Added kernel doc comments.

4940fc889e net: add mac_pton() for parsing MAC address
mac_pton() parses MAC address in form XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX and only in that form.

mac_pton() doesn't dirty result until it's sure string representation is valid.

mac_pton() doesn't care about characters _after_ last octet,
it's up to caller to deal with it.

mac_pton() diverges from 0/-E return value convention.
Target usage:

	if (!mac_pton(str, whatever->mac))
		return -EINVAL;
	/* ->mac being u8 [ETH_ALEN] is filled at this point. */
	/* optionally check str[3 * ETH_ALEN - 1] for termination */

Use mac_pton() in pktgen and netconsole for start.

226bd34114 net: use batched device unregister in veth and macvlan
veth devices dont use the batched device unregisters yet.

Since veth are a pair of devices, it makes sense to use a batch of two
unregisters, this roughly divides dismantle time by two.

Fix this by changing dellink() callers to always provide a non NULL
head. (Idea from Michał Mirosław)

This patch also handles macvlan case : We now dismantle all macvlans on
top of a lower dev at once.

eed2a12f1e net: Allow ethtool to set interface in loopback mode.
This patch enables ethtool to set the loopback mode on a given interface.
By configuring the interface in loopback mode in conjunction with a policy
route / rule, a userland application can stress the egress / ingress path
exposing the flows of the change in progress and potentially help developer(s)
understand the impact of those changes without even sending a packet out
on the network.

Following set of commands illustrates one such example -
    a) ip -4 addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev eth1
    b) ip -4 rule add from all iif eth1 lookup 250
    c) ip -4 route add local 0/0 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 250
    d) arp -Ds 192.168.1.100 eth1
    e) arp -Ds 192.168.1.200 eth1
    f) sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_nonlocal_bind=1
    g) sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_local=1
    # Assuming that the machine has 8 cores
    h) taskset 000f netserver -L 192.168.1.200
    i) taskset 00f0 netperf -t TCP_CRR -L 192.168.1.100 -H 192.168.1.200 -l 30

e67f88dd12 net: dont hold rtnl mutex during netlink dump callbacks
Four years ago, Patrick made a change to hold rtnl mutex during netlink
dump callbacks.

I believe it was a wrong move. This slows down concurrent dumps, making
good old /proc/net/ files faster than rtnetlink in some situations.

This occurred to me because one "ip link show dev ..." was _very_ slow
on a workload adding/removing network devices in background.

All dump callbacks are able to use RCU locking now, so this patch does
roughly a revert of commits :

1c2d670f36 : [RTNETLINK]: Hold rtnl_mutex during netlink dump callbacks
6313c1e099 : [RTNETLINK]: Remove unnecessary locking in dump callbacks

This let writers fight for rtnl mutex and readers going full speed.

It also takes care of phonet : phonet_route_get() is now called from rcu
read section. I renamed it to phonet_route_get_rcu()

8ae6daca85 ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned data
This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's
get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it
is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if
the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't
get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of
setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET).

This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it
sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to
drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings()
does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function
also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline.

All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been
updated.
