Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:

- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
  instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
  lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
  control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
  watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
  when tso is disabled for lower device.

Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.

With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.

In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

Separate the unreg_list and the close_list in dev_close_many preventing
dev_close_many from permuting the unreg_list.  The permutations of the
unreg_list have resulted in cases where the loopback device is accessed
it has been freed in code such as dst_ifdown.  Resulting in subtle memory
corruption.

This is the second bug from sharing the storage between the close_list
and the unreg_list.  The issues that crop up with sharing are
apparently too subtle to show up in normal testing or usage, so let's
forget about being clever and use two separate lists.

By default, the pfifo_fast queue discipline has been used by default
for all devices. But we have better choices now.

This patch allow setting the default queueing discipline with sysctl.
This allows easy use of better queueing disciplines on all devices
without having to use tc qdisc scripts. It is intended to allow
an easy path for distributions to make fq_codel or sfq the default
qdisc.

This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly
use pfifo_fast. The behavior for systems who do not use the sysctl
is unchanged, they still get pfifo_fast

Also removes leftover random # in sysctl net core.

commit 56b765b7 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
broke the "linklayer atm" handling.

 tc class add ... htb rate X ceil Y linklayer atm

The linklayer setting is implemented by modifying the rate table
which is send to the kernel.  No direct parameter were
transferred to the kernel indicating the linklayer setting.

The commit 56b765b7 ("htb: improved accuracy at high rates")
removed the use of the rate table system.

To keep compatible with older iproute2 utils, this patch detects
the linklayer by parsing the rate table.  It also supports future
versions of iproute2 to send this linklayer parameter to the
kernel directly. This is done by using the __reserved field in
struct tc_ratespec, to convey the choosen linklayer option, but
only using the lower 4 bits of this field.

Linklayer detection is limited to speeds below 100Mbit/s, because
at high rates the rtab is gets too inaccurate, so bad that
several fields contain the same values, this resembling the ATM
detect.  Fields even start to contain "0" time to send, e.g. at
1000Mbit/s sending a 96 bytes packet cost "0", thus the rtab have
been more broken than we first realized.

Vlan devices are LLTX and don't update their own trans_start, so if
dev_trans_start has to be called with a vlan device then 0 or a stale
value will be returned. Currently the bonding is the only such user, and
it's needed for proper arp monitoring when the slaves are vlans.
Fix this by extracting the vlan's real device trans_start.

With BQL being deployed, we can more likely have following behavior :

We dequeue a packet from qdisc in dequeue_skb(), then we realize target
tx queue is in XOFF state in sch_direct_xmit(), and we have to hold the
skb into gso_skb for later.

This shows in stats (tc -s qdisc dev eth0) as requeues.

Problem of these requeues is that high priority packets can not be
dequeued as long as this (possibly low prio and big TSO packet) is not
removed from gso_skb.

At 1Gbps speed, a full size TSO packet is 500 us of extra latency.

In some cases, we know that all packets dequeued from a qdisc are
for a particular and known txq :

- If device is non multi queue
- For all MQ/MQPRIO slave qdiscs

This patch introduces a new qdisc flag, TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE to mark
this capability, so that dequeue_skb() is allowed to dequeue a packet
only if the associated txq is not stopped.

This indeed reduce latencies for high prio packets (or improve fairness
with sfq/fq_codel), and almost remove qdisc 'requeues'.

It seems we need to provide ability for stacked devices
to use specific lock_class_key for sch->busylock

We could instead default l2tpeth tx_queue_len to 0 (no qdisc), but
a user might use a qdisc anyway.

(So same fixes are probably needed on non LLTX stacked drivers)

As you can see the system is still not perfect but
is a lot better than what it was before...

At the moment we use the old backlog weight, weight_p
which is 64 packets. It seems to be reasonably fine
with that value.
The system could be made more fair if we reduce the
weight_p (as per my presentation), but we are going
to affect the shared backlog weight. Unless deemed
necessary, I think the default value is fine. If not
we could add yet another knob.

And now can generate warnings like:

Just return driver->name directly or "".

dev_deactivate_many() issues one synchronize_rcu() call after qdiscs set
to noop_qdisc.

This call is here to make sure they are no outstanding qdisc-less
dev_queue_xmit calls before returning to caller.

But in dismantle phase, we dont have to wait, because we wont activate
again the device, and we are going to wait one rcu grace period later in
rollback_registered_many().

After this patch, device dismantle uses one synchronize_net() and one
rcu_barrier() call only, so we have a ~30% speedup and a smaller RTNL
latency.

Because of various alignements [SLUB / qdisc], we use 512 bytes of
memory for one {p|b}fifo qdisc, instead of 256 bytes on 64bit arches and
192 bytes on 32bit ones.

Move the "u32 limit" inside "struct Qdisc" (no impact on other qdiscs)

Change qdisc_alloc(), first trying a regular allocation before an
oversized one.

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

In the beginning with batching unreg_list was a list that was used only
once in the lifetime of a network device (I think).  Now we have calls
using the unreg_list that can happen multiple times in the life of a
network device like dev_deactivate and dev_close that are also using the
unreg_list.  In addition in unregister_netdevice_queue we also do a
list_move because for devices like veth pairs it is possible that
unregister_netdevice_queue will be called multiple times.

So I think the change below to fix dev_deactivate which Eric D. missed
will fix this problem.  Now to go test that.

Now qdisc stab is handled before TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS test in
__dev_xmit_skb(), we can generalize TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS to other qdiscs
than pfifo_fast : pfifo, bfifo, pfifo_head_drop and sfq

SFQ is special because it can have external classifiers, and in these
cases, we cannot bypass queue discipline (packet could be dropped by
classifier) without admin asking it, or further changes.

Its worth doing this, especially for SFQ, avoiding dirtying memory in
case no packets are already waiting in queue.

This patch converts stab qdisc management to RCU, so that we can perform
the qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() call before getting qdisc lock.

This shortens the lock's held time in __dev_xmit_skb().

This permits more qdiscs to get TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS status, avoiding lot of
cache misses and so reducing latencies.

This implements a mqprio queueing discipline that by default creates
a pfifo_fast qdisc per tx queue and provides the needed configuration
interface.

Using the mqprio qdisc the number of tcs currently in use along
with the range of queues alloted to each class can be configured. By
default skbs are mapped to traffic classes using the skb priority.
This mapping is configurable.

Configurable parameters,

struct tc_mqprio_qopt {
	__u8    num_tc;
	__u8    prio_tc_map[TC_BITMASK + 1];
	__u8    hw;
	__u16   count[TC_MAX_QUEUE];
	__u16   offset[TC_MAX_QUEUE];
};

Here the count/offset pairing give the queue alignment and the
prio_tc_map gives the mapping from skb->priority to tc.

The hw bit determines if the hardware should configure the count
and offset values. If the hardware bit is set then the operation
will fail if the hardware does not implement the ndo_setup_tc
operation. This is to avoid undetermined states where the hardware
may or may not control the queue mapping. Also minimal bounds
checking is done on the count/offset to verify a queue does not
exceed num_tx_queues and that queue ranges do not overlap. Otherwise
it is left to user policy or hardware configuration to create
useful mappings.

It is expected that hardware QOS schemes can be implemented by
creating appropriate mappings of queues in ndo_tc_setup().

One expected use case is drivers will use the ndo_setup_tc to map
queue ranges onto 802.1Q traffic classes. This provides a generic
mechanism to map network traffic onto these traffic classes and
removes the need for lower layer drivers to know specifics about
traffic types.

Allocate qdisc memory according to NUMA properties of cpus included in
xps map.

To be effective, qdisc should be (re)setup after changes
of /sys/class/net/eth<n>/queues/tx-<n>/xps_cpus

I added a numa_node field in struct netdev_queue, containing NUMA node
if all cpus included in xps_cpus share same node, else -1.
