Current code does not lock anything when calculating the TX and RX stats.
As a result, the RX and TX data reported by ifconfig are not accuracy in a
system with high network throughput and multiple CPUs (in my test,
RX/TX = 83% between 2 HyperV VM nodes which have 8 vCPUs and 40G Ethernet).

This patch fixed the above issue by using per_cpu stats.
netvsc_get_stats64() summarizes TX and RX data by iterating over all CPUs
to get their respective stats.

commit d2788d34 ("net: sched: further simplify handle_ing")
removed the call to qdisc_enqueue_root().

However, after this removal we no longer set qdisc pkt length.
This breaks traffic policing on ingress.

This is the minimum fix: set qdisc pkt length before tc_classify.

Only setting the length does remove support for 'stab' on ingress, but
as Alexei pointed out:
 "Though it was allowed to add qdisc_size_table to ingress, it's useless.
  Nothing takes advantage of recomputed qdisc_pkt_len".

Jamal suggested to use qdisc_pkt_len_init(), but as Eric mentioned that
would result in qdisc_pkt_len_init to no longer get inlined due to the
additional 2nd call site.

ingress policing is rare and GRO doesn't really work that well with police
on ingress, as we see packets > mtu and drop skbs that  -- without
aggregation -- would still have fitted the policier budget.
Thus to have reliable/smooth ingress policing GRO has to be turned off.

When we send a burst of syncookies, then exit this mode,
tcp_synq_no_recent_overflow() can return false if the ACK packets coming
from clients are coming three seconds after the end of syncookie

This is a way too strong requirement and conflicts with rest of
syncookie code which allows ACK to be aged up to 2 minutes.

tipc: some link layer improvements

We continue eliminating redundant complexity at the link layer, and

====================
Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently, the packet sequence number is updated and added to each
packet at the moment a packet is added to the link backlog queue.
This is wasteful, since it forces the code to traverse the send
packet list packet by packet when adding them to the backlog queue.
It would be better to just splice the whole packet list into the
backlog queue when that is the right action to do.

In this commit, we do this change. Also, since the sequence numbers
cannot now be assigned to the packets at the moment they are added
the backlog queue, we do instead calculate and add them at the moment
of transmission, when the backlog queue has to be traversed anyway.
We do this in the function tipc_link_push_packet().

The link congestion algorithm used until now implies two problems.

- It is too generous towards lower-level messages in situations of high
  load by giving "absolute" bandwidth guarantees to the different
  priority levels. LOW traffic is guaranteed 10%, MEDIUM is guaranted
  20%, HIGH is guaranteed 30%, and CRITICAL is guaranteed 40% of the
  available bandwidth. But, in the absence of higher level traffic, the
  ratio between two distinct levels becomes unreasonable. E.g. if there
  is only LOW and MEDIUM traffic on a system, the former is guaranteed
  1/3 of the bandwidth, and the latter 2/3. This again means that if
  there is e.g. one LOW user and 10 MEDIUM users, the  former will have
  33.3% of the bandwidth, and the others will have to compete for the
  remainder, i.e. each will end up with 6.7% of the capacity.

- Packets of type MSG_BUNDLER are created at SYSTEM importance level,
  but only after the packets bundled into it have passed the congestion
  test for their own respective levels. Since bundled packets don't
  result in incrementing the level counter for their own importance,
  only occasionally for the SYSTEM level counter, they do in practice
  obtain SYSTEM level importance. Hence, the current implementation
  provides a gap in the congestion algorithm that in the worst case
  may lead to a link reset.

We now refine the congestion algorithm as follows:

- A message is accepted to the link backlog only if its own level
  counter, and all superior level counters, permit it.

- The importance of a created bundle packet is set according to its
  contents. A bundle packet created from messges at levels LOW to
  CRITICAL is given importance level CRITICAL, while a bundle created
  from a SYSTEM level message is given importance SYSTEM. In the latter
  case only subsequent SYSTEM level messages are allowed to be bundled
  into it.

This solves the first problem described above, by making the bandwidth
guarantee relative to the total number of users at all levels; only
the upper limit for each level remains absolute. In the example
described above, the single LOW user would use 1/11th of the bandwidth,
the same as each of the ten MEDIUM users, but he still has the same
guarantee against starvation as the latter ones.

The fix also solves the second problem. If the CRITICAL level is filled
up by bundle packets of that level, no lower level packets will be
accepted any more.

We change the sequence number checkpointing that is performed

we store a checkpoint of the next expected sequence number "rcv_nxt"
at each timer expiration, and compare it to the current expected
number at next timeout expiration. Instead, we now use the already
existing field "silent_intv_cnt" for this task. We step the counter
at each timeout expiration, and zero it at each valid received packet.
If no valid packet has been received from the peer after "abort_limit"
number of silent timer intervals, the link is declared faulty and reset.

We also remove the multiple instances of timer activation from inside

We now make the incoming and outgoing sequence numbers to unsigned

includes a number of header files that themselves should be allowed
to include core.h. In reality this is unnecessary, because core.h does
not need to know the full signature of any of the structs it refers to,
only their type declaration.

In this commit, we remove all dependencies from core.h towards any

Prior to this commit, the link timer has been running at a "continuity
interval" of configured link tolerance/4. When a timer wakes up and
discovers that there has been no sign of life from the peer during the
previous interval, it divides its own timer interval by another factor
four, and starts sending one probe per new interval. When the configured
link tolerance time has passed without answer, i.e. after 16 unacked
probes, the link is declared faulty and reset.

This is unnecessary complex. It is sufficient to continue with the
original continuity interval, and instead reset the link after four
missed probe responses. This makes the timer handling in the link
simpler, and opens up for some planned later changes in this area.
This commit implements this change.

OS2BMC feature will allow the server to communicate with the on-board
BMC/idrac (Baseboard Management Controller) over the LOM via
standard Ethernet.

When OS2BMC feature is enabled, the LOM will filter traffic coming
from the host. If the destination MAC address matches the iDRAC MAC
address, it will forward the packet to the NC-SI side band interface
for iDRAC processing. Otherwise, it would send it out on the wire to
the external network. Broadcast and multicast packets are sent on the
side-band NC-SI channel and on the wire as well. Some of the packet
filters are not supported in the NIC and hence driver will identify
such packets and will hint the NIC to send those packets to the BMC.
This is done by duplicating packets on the management ring. Packets
are sent to the management ring, by setting mgmt bit in the wrb header.
The NIC will forward the packets on the management ring to the BMC
through the side-band NC-SI channel.

Netfilter ingress support (v4)

This is the v4 round of patches to add the Netfilter ingress hook, it basically
comes in two steps:

1) Add the CONFIG_NET_INGRESS switch to wrap the ingress static key around it.
   The idea is to use the same global static key to avoid adding more code to
   the hot path.

2) Add the Netfilter ingress hook after the tc ingress hook, under the global
   ingress_needed static key. As I said, the netfilter ingress hook also has
   its own static key, that is nested under the global static key. Please, see
   patch 5/5 for performance numbers and more information.

I originally started this next round, as it was suggested, exploring the
independent static key for netfilter ingress just after tc ingress, but the
results that I gathered from that patch are not good for non-users:

Result: OK: 6425927(c6425843+d83) usec, 100000000 (60byte,0frags)
  15561955pps 7469Mb/sec (7469738400bps) errors: 100000000

this roughly means 500Kpps less performance wrt. the base numbers, so that's
the reason why I discarded that approach and I focused on this.

The idea of this patchset is to open the window to nf_tables, which comes with
features that will work out-of-the-box (once the boiler plate code to support
the 'netdev' table family is in place), to avoid repeating myself [1], the most
relevant features are:

1) Multi-dimensional key dictionary lookups.
2) Arbitrary stateful flow tables.
3) Transactions and good support for dynamic updates.

But there are also interest aspects to consider from userspace, such as the
ability to support new layer 2 protocols without kernel updates, a well-defined
netlink interface, userspace libraries and utilities for third party
applications, among others.

I hope we can be happy with this approach.

Please, apply. Thanks.

This patch adds the Netfilter ingress hook just after the existing tc ingress
hook, that seems to be the consensus solution for this.

Note that the Netfilter hook resides under the global static key that enables
ingress filtering. Nonetheless, Netfilter still also has its own static key for
minimal impact on the existing handle_ing().

Note that the results are very similar before and after.

I can see gcc gets the code under the ingress static key out of the hot path.
Then, on that cold branch, it generates the code to accomodate the netfilter
ingress static key. My explanation for this is that this reduces the pressure
on the instruction cache for non-users as the new code is out of the hot path,
and it comes with minimal impact for tc ingress users.

This new config switch enables the ingress filtering infrastructure that is
controlled through the ingress_needed static key. This prepares the
introduction of the Netfilter ingress hook that resides under this unique
static key.

Note that CONFIG_SCH_INGRESS automatically selects this, that should be no
problem since this also depends on CONFIG_NET_CLS_ACT.
