The TSO and GSO segmented packets already benefit from bulking
on their own.

The TSO packets have always taken advantage of the only updating
the tailptr once for a large packet.

The GSO segmented packets have recently taken advantage of
bulking xmit_more API, via merge commit 53fda7f7 ("Merge
branch 'xmit_list'"), specifically via commit 7f2e870f ("net:
Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.")
allowing qdisc requeue of remaining list.  And via commit
ce93718f ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we
software segment GSO frames.").

This patch allow further bulking of TSO/GSO packets together,
when dequeueing from the qdisc.

Testing:
 Measuring HoL (Head-of-Line) blocking for TSO and GSO, with
netperf-wrapper. Bulking several TSO show no performance regressions
(requeues were in the area 32 requeues/sec).

Bulking several GSOs does show small regression or very small
improvement (requeues were in the area 8000 requeues/sec).

 Using ixgbe 10Gbit/s with GSO bulking, we can measure some additional
latency. Base-case, which is "normal" GSO bulking, sees varying
high-prio queue delay between 0.38ms to 0.47ms.  Bulking several GSOs
together, result in a stable high-prio queue delay of 0.50ms.

 Using igb at 100Mbit/s with GSO bulking, shows an improvement.
Base-case sees varying high-prio queue delay between 2.23ms to 2.35ms

Based on DaveM's recent API work on dev_hard_start_xmit(), that allows
sending/processing an entire skb list.

This patch implements qdisc bulk dequeue, by allowing multiple packets
to be dequeued in dequeue_skb().

The optimization principle for this is two fold, (1) to amortize
locking cost and (2) avoid expensive tailptr update for notifying HW.
 (1) Several packets are dequeued while holding the qdisc root_lock,
amortizing locking cost over several packet.  The dequeued SKB list is
processed under the TXQ lock in dev_hard_start_xmit(), thus also
amortizing the cost of the TXQ lock.
 (2) Further more, dev_hard_start_xmit() will utilize the skb->xmit_more
API to delay HW tailptr update, which also reduces the cost per
packet.

One restriction of the new API is that every SKB must belong to the
same TXQ.  This patch takes the easy way out, by restricting bulk
dequeue to qdisc's with the TCQ_F_ONETXQUEUE flag, that specifies the
qdisc only have attached a single TXQ.

Some detail about the flow; dev_hard_start_xmit() will process the skb
list, and transmit packets individually towards the driver (see
xmit_one()).  In case the driver stops midway in the list, the
remaining skb list is returned by dev_hard_start_xmit().  In
sch_direct_xmit() this returned list is requeued by dev_requeue_skb().

To avoid overshooting the HW limits, which results in requeuing, the
patch limits the amount of bytes dequeued, based on the drivers BQL
limits.  In-effect bulking will only happen for BQL enabled drivers.

Small amounts for extra HoL blocking (2x MTU/0.24ms) were
measured at 100Mbit/s, with bulking 8 packets, but the
oscillating nature of the measurement indicate something, like
sched latency might be causing this effect. More comparisons
show, that this oscillation goes away occationally. Thus, we
disregard this artifact completely and remove any "magic" bulking
limit.

For now, as a conservative approach, stop bulking when seeing TSO and
segmented GSO packets.  They already benefit from bulking on their own.
A followup patch add this, to allow easier bisect-ability for finding
regressions.

In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators
need to be handled correctly.

To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is
only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not
the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu
stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag.

Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per
second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated
to use the per cpu statistics.

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.

This patch also makes pfifo_fast more of a first class qdisc, since
it is now possible to manually override the default and explicitly

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.

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'.

I believe net/core/dev.c is a better place for netif_notify_peers(),
because other net event notify functions also stay in this file.

And rename it to netdev_notify_peers().

This adds the /sys/class/net/DEV/queues/Q/tx_timeout attribute
containing the total number of timeout events on the given queue. It
is always available with CONFIG_SYSFS, independently of
CONFIG_RPS/XPS.

Credits to Stephen Hemminger for a preliminary version of this patch.

Tested:
  without CONFIG_SYSFS (compilation only)
  with sysfs and without CONFIG_RPS & CONFIG_XPS
  with sysfs and without CONFIG_RPS
  with sysfs and without CONFIG_XPS
  with defaults

Results on dummy device can be seen in my netconf 2011
slides. These results are for a 10Gige IXGBE intel
nic - on another i5 machine, very similar specs to
the one used in the netconf2011 results.
It turns out - this is a hell lot worse than dummy
and so this patch is even more beneficial for 10G.

Test setup:
----------

System under test sending packets out.
Additional box connected directly dropping packets.
Installed prio qdisc on the eth device and default
netdev default length of 1000 used as is.
The 3 prio bands each were set to 100 (didnt factor in
the results).

5 packet runs were made and the middle 3 picked.

results
-------

The "cpu" column indicates the which cpu the sample
was taken on,
The "Pkt runx" carries the number of packets a cpu
dequeued when forced to be in the "dequeuer" role.
The "avg" for each run is the number of times each
cpu should be a "dequeuer" if the system was fair.

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.

This interface uses a temporary buffer, but for no real reason.
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.
