A malicious VF might try to starve the other VFs & PF by creating
contineous doorbell floods. In order to negate this, HW has a threshold of
doorbells per client, which will stop the client doorbells from arriving
if crossed.
The threshold currently configured for VFs is too low - under extreme traffic
scenarios, it's possible for a VF to reach the threshold and thus for its
fastpath to stop working.

Consider the scenario:
For a TCP-style socket, while processing the COOKIE_ECHO chunk in
sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce(), after it has passed a series of sanity check,
a new association would be created in sctp_unpack_cookie(), but afterwards,
some processing maybe failed, and sctp_association_free() will be called to
free the previously allocated association, in sctp_association_free(),
sk_ack_backlog value is decremented for this socket, since the initial
value for sk_ack_backlog is 0, after the decrement, it will be 65535,
a wrap-around problem happens, and if we want to establish new associations
afterward in the same socket, ABORT would be triggered since sctp deem the
accept queue as full.
Fix this issue by only decrementing sk_ack_backlog for associations in
the endpoint's list.

net: Checksum offload changes - Part IV
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simply code
What is in this fourth patch set:
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE instead of changing it to
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. This allows correct reuse in validating multiple
csums in a packet.
- When SW needs to compute the packet checksum, save it as
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. Also mark that checksum was compute by SW.
- Add skb_gro_postpull_rcsum to udp and vxlan to make GRO work with
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE.
v2: Removed patch setting skb_encapsulation when validating checksum
in tcp_gro_receive

Currently when the first checksum in a packet is validated using
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE, ip_summed is overwritten to be CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
so that any subsequent checksums in the packet are not correctly
validated.
This patch adds csum_valid flag in sk_buff and uses that to indicate
validated checksum instead of setting CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. The bit
is set accordingly in the skb_checksum_validate_* functions. The flag
is checked in skb_checksum_complete, so that validation is communicated
between checksum_init and checksum_complete sequence in TCP and UDP.

("sfc: Use TX PIO for sufficiently small packets")
The linux net driver uses memcpy_toio() in order to copy into
the PIO buffers.
Even on a 64bit machine this causes 32bit accesses to a write-
combined memory region.
There are hardware limitations that mean that only 64bit
naturally aligned accesses are safe in all cases.
Due to being write-combined memory region two 32bit accesses
may be coalesced to form a 64bit non 64bit aligned access.
Solution was to open-code the memory copy routines using pointers
and to only enable PIO for x86_64 machines.
Not tested on platforms other than x86_64 because this patch
disables the PIO feature on other platforms.
Compile-tested on x86 to ensure that works.
The WARN_ON_ONCE() code in the previous version of this patch
has been moved into the internal sfc debug driver as the
assertion was unnecessary in the upstream kernel code.

bridge: 802.1ad vlan protocol support
Currently bridge vlan filtering doesn't work fine with 802.1ad protocol.
Only if a bridge is configured without pvid, the bridge receives only
802.1ad tagged frames and no STP is used, it will work.
Otherwise:
- If pvid is configured, it can put only 802.1Q tags but cannot put 802.1ad
tags.
- If 802.1Q and 802.1ad tagged frames arrive in mixture, it applies filtering
regardless of their protocols.
- While an 802.1ad bridge should use another mac address for STP BPDU and
should forward customer's BPDU frames, it can't.
Thus, we can't properly handle frames once 802.1ad is used.
Handling 802.1ad is useful if we want to allow stacked vlans to be used,
e.g., guest VMs wants to use vlan tags and the host also wants to segregate
guest's traffic from other guests' by vlan tags.
Here is the image describing how to configure a bridge to filter VMs traffic.
+-------+p/u +-----+ +---------+
+----+ | |------|vnet0|--|User A VM|
|eth0|--|802.1ad| +-----+ +---------+
+----+ |bridge |p/u +-----+ +---------+
| |------|vnet1|--|User B VM|
+-------+ +-----+ +---------+
p/u: pvid/untagged
This patch set enables us to set vlan protocols per bridge.
This tries to implement a bridge like S-VLAN component in IEEE 802.1Q-2011
spec.
Note that there is another possible implementation that sets vlan protocols
per port. Some HW switches seem to take that approach.
However, I think per-bridge approach is better, because;
- I think the typical usage of an 802.1ad bridge is segregating 802.1Q tagged
traffic (like what is described above), and this doesn't need the ability to
be set protocols per port. Also, If a bridge has many ports and it supports
per-port setting, we might have to make much more extra configurations to
change protocols of all ports.
- I assume that the main perpose to set protocol per port is to assign S-VID
according to C-VID, or to realize two logical bridges (one is an 802.1Q
filtering bridge and the other is an 802.1ad filtering bridge) in one bridge.
The former usually needs additional features such as vlan id mapping, and
is likely to make bridge's code complicated. If a user wants, such enhanced
features can be accomplished by a combination of multiple bridges, so it is
not absolutely necessary to implement these features in a bridge itself.
The latter is simply unnecessary because we can easily make two bridges of
which one is an 802.1Q bridge and the other is an 802.1ad bridge.
Here is an example of the enhanced feature that we can realize by using
multiple bridges and veth interfaces. This way is documented in
IEEE 802.1Q-2011 clause 15.4 (C-tagged service interface).
+----+ +-------+p/u +------+ +----+ +--+
|eth0|--|802.1ad|----veth----|802.1Q|--|vnet|--|VM|
+----+ |bridge |----veth----|bridge| +----+ +--+
+-------+p/u +------+
p/u: pvid/untagged
In this configuration, we can map C-VIDs to any S-VID.
For example;
C-VID 10 and 20 to S-VID 100
C-VID 30 to S-VID 110
This is achieved through the 802.1Q bridge that forwards C-tagged frames to
proper ports of the 802.1ad bridge.
Changes:
v1 -> v2:
- Make the way to forward bridge group addresses more generic by introducing
new mask, group_fwd_mask_required.
RFC -> v1:
- Add S-TAG tx offload.
- Remove a fix around stacked vlan which has already been fixed.
- Take into account Bridge Group Addresses.
- Separate handling of protocol-mismatch from br_vlan_get_tag().
- Change the way to set vlan_proto from netlink to sysfs because no other
existing configuration per bridge can be set by netlink.

This enables us to change the vlan protocol for vlan filtering.
We come to be able to filter frames on the basis of 802.1ad vlan tags
through a bridge.
This also changes br->group_addr if it has not been set by user.
This is needed for an 802.1ad bridge.
(See IEEE 802.1Q-2011 8.13.5.)
Furthermore, this sets br->group_fwd_mask_required so that an 802.1ad
bridge can forward the Nearest Customer Bridge group addresses except
for br->group_addr, which should be passed to higher layer.
To change the vlan protocol, write a protocol in sysfs:

We wish the HCA to preferentially map the IRQs it uses to numa cores
close to it. To accomplish this, we use cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(), that
sets the affinity hint according the following policy:
First it maps IRQs to “close” numa cores. If these are exhausted, the
remaining IRQs are mapped to “far” numa cores.

This function sets the n'th cpu - local cpu's first.
For example: in a 16 cores server with even cpu's local, will get the
following values:
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(0, numa, cpumask) => cpu 0 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(1, numa, cpumask) => cpu 2 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(7, numa, cpumask) => cpu 14 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(8, numa, cpumask) => cpu 1 is set
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(9, numa, cpumask) => cpu 3 is set
...
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first(15, numa, cpumask) => cpu 15 is set
Curently this function will be used by multi queue networking devices to
calculate the irq affinity mask, such that as many local cpu's as
possible will be utilized to handle the mq device irq's.
