This patch series works towards the goal of minimizing the amount of things that can change in an ipv4 route. In a regime where the routing cache is removed, route changes will lead to cloning in the FIB tables or similar. The largest trigger of route metrics writes, TCP, now has it's own cache of dynamic metric state. The timewait timestamps are stored there now as well. As a result of that, pre-cowing metrics is no longer necessary, and therefore FLOWI_FLAG_PRECOW_METRICS is removed. Redirect and PMTU handling is moved back into the ipv4 routes. I'm sorry for all the headaches trying to do this in the inetpeer has caused, it was the wrong approach for sure. Since metrics become read-only for ipv4 we no longer need the inetpeer hung off of the ipv4 routes either. So those disappear too. Also, timewait sockets no longer need to hold onto an inetpeer either. After this series, we still have some details to resolve wrt. PMTU and redirects for a route-cache-less system: 1) With just the plain route cache removal, PMTU will continue to work mostly fine. This is because of how the local route users call down into the PMTU update code with the route they already hold. However, if we wish to cache pre-computed routes in fib_info nexthops (which we want for performance), then we need to add route cloning for PMTU events. 2) Redirects require more work. First, redirects must be changed to be handled like PMTU. Wherein we call down into the sockets and other entities, and then they call back into the routing code with the route they were using. So we'll be adding an ->update_nexthop() method alongside ->update_pmtu(). And then, like for PMTU, we'll need cloning support once we start caching routes in the fib_info nexthops. But that's it, we can completely pull the trigger and remove the routing cache with minimal disruptions. As it is, this patch series alone helps a lot of things. For one, routing cache entry creation should be a lot faster, because we no longer do inetpeer lookups (even to check if an entry exists). This patch series also opens the door for non-DST_HOST ipv4 routes, because nothing fundamentally cares about rt->rt_dst any more. It can be removed with the base routing cache removal patch. In fact, that was the primary goal of this patch series. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Nothing every writes to ipv4 metrics any longer. PMTU is stored in rt->rt_pmtu. Dynamic TCP metrics are stored in a special TCP metrics cache, completely outside of the routes. Therefore ->cow_metrics() can simply nothing more than a WARN_ON trigger so we can catch anyone who tries to add new writes to ipv4 route metrics. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Maintain a local hash table of TCP dynamic metrics blobs. Computed TCP metrics are no longer maintained in the route metrics. The table uses RCU and an extremely simple hash so that it has low latency and low overhead. A simple hash is legitimate because we only make metrics blobs for fully established connections. Some tweaking of the default hash table sizes, metric timeouts, and the hash chain length limit certainly could use some tweaking. But the basic design seems sound.

Macro spin_event_timeout() was designed for simple polling of hardware registers with a timeout, so use it when we poll the MIIMIND register. This allows us to return an error code instead of polling indefinitely. Note that PHY_INIT_TIMEOUT is a count of loop iterations, so we can't use it for spin_event_timeout(), which asks for microseconds.

While doing some recent work on sctp sack bundling I noted that sctp_packet_append_chunk was pretty inefficient. Specifially, it was called recursively while trying to bundle auth and sack chunks. Because of that we call sctp_packet_bundle_sack and sctp_packet_bundle_auth a total of 4 times for every call to sctp_packet_append_chunk, knowing that at least 3 of those calls will do nothing. So lets refactor sctp_packet_bundle_auth to have an outer part that does the attempted bundling, and an inner part that just does the chunk appends. This saves us several calls per iteration that we just don't need. Also, noticed that the auth and sack bundling fail to free the chunks they allocate if the append fails, so make sure we add that in Signed-off-by: NNeil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: Vlad Yasevich <vyasevich@gmail.com> CC: "David S.
