Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to
a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity
and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching
the header with the helpers).
The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used
in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used
most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

Currently on stable trees we have support for netmem/devmem RX but not
TX. It is not safe to forward/redirect an RX unreadable netmem packet
into the device's TX path, as the device may call dma-mapping APIs on
dma addrs that should not be passed to it.
Fix this by preventing the xmit of unreadable skbs.
Tested by configuring tc redirect:
sudo tc qdisc add dev eth1 ingress
sudo tc filter add dev eth1 ingress protocol ip prio 1 flower ip_proto \
tcp src_ip 192.168.1.12 action mirred egress redirect dev eth1
Before, I see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.
After, I don't see unreadable skbs in the driver's TX path passed to dma
mapping APIs.

To preserve the atomicity, hold the lock while applying multiple
attributes. The major issue with a full conversion to the instance
lock are software nesting devices (bonding/team/vrf/etc). Those
devices call into the core stack for their lower (potentially
real hw) devices. To avoid explicitly wrapping all those places
into instance lock/unlock, introduce new API boundaries:
- (some) existing dev_xxx calls are now considered "external"
(to drivers) APIs and they transparently grab the instance
lock if needed (dev_api.c)
- new netif_xxx calls are internal core stack API (naming is
sketchy, I've tried netdev_xxx_locked per Jakub's suggestion,
but it feels a bit verbose; but happy to get back to this
naming scheme if this is the preference)
This avoids touching most of the existing ioctl/sysfs/drivers paths.
Note the special handling of ndo_xxx_slave operations: I exploit
the fact that none of the drivers that call these functions
need/use instance lock. At the same time, they use dev_xxx
APIs, so the lower device has to be unlocked.
Changes in unregister_netdevice_many_notify (to protect dev->state
with instance lock) trigger lockdep - the loop over close_list
(mostly from cleanup_net) introduces spurious ordering issues.
netdev_lock_cmp_fn has a justification on why it's ok to suppress
for now.

For the drivers that use shaper API, switch to the mode where
core stack holds the netdev lock. This affects two drivers:
* iavf - already grabs netdev lock in ndo_open/ndo_stop, so mostly
remove these
* netdevsim - switch to _locked APIs to avoid deadlock
iavf_close diff is a bit confusing, the existing call looks like this:
iavf_close() {
netdev_lock()
..
netdev_unlock()
wait_event_timeout(down_waitqueue)
}
I change it to the following:
netdev_lock()
iavf_close() {
..
netdev_unlock()
wait_event_timeout(down_waitqueue)
netdev_lock() // reusing this lock call
}
netdev_unlock()
Since I'm reusing existing netdev_lock call, so it looks like I only
add netdev_unlock.

In fact, these two are not tied closely to each other. The only
requirements to GRO are to use it in the BH context and have some
sane limits on the packet batches, e.g. NAPI has a limit of its
budget (64/8/etc.).
Move purely GRO fields into a new structure, &gro_node. Embed it
into &napi_struct and adjust all the references.
gro_node::cached_napi_id is effectively the same as
napi_struct::napi_id, but to be used on GRO hotpath to mark skbs.
napi_struct::napi_id is now a fully control path field.
Three Ethernet drivers use napi_gro_flush() not really meant to be
exported, so move it to <net/gro.h> and add that include there.
napi_gro_receive() is used in more than 100 drivers, keep it
in <linux/netdevice.h>.
This does not make GRO ready to use outside of the NAPI context
yet.

A common task for most drivers is to remember the user-set CPU affinity
to its IRQs. On each netdev reset, the driver should re-assign the user's
settings to the IRQs. Unify this task across all drivers by moving the CPU
affinity to napi->config.
However, to move the CPU affinity to core, we also need to move aRFS
rmap management since aRFS uses its own IRQ notifiers.
For the aRFS, add a new netdev flag "rx_cpu_rmap_auto". Drivers supporting
aRFS should set the flag via netif_enable_cpu_rmap() and core will allocate
and manage the aRFS rmaps. Freeing the rmap is also done by core when the
netdev is freed. For better IRQ affinity management, move the IRQ rmap
notifier inside the napi_struct and add new notify.notify and
notify.release functions: netif_irq_cpu_rmap_notify() and
netif_napi_affinity_release().
Now we have the aRFS rmap management in core, add CPU affinity mask to
napi_config. To delegate the CPU affinity management to the core, drivers
must:
1 - set the new netdev flag "irq_affinity_auto":
netif_enable_irq_affinity(netdev)
2 - create the napi with persistent config:
netif_napi_add_config()
3 - bind an IRQ to the napi instance: netif_napi_set_irq()
the core will then make sure to use re-assign affinity to the napi's
IRQ.
The default IRQ mask is set to one cpu starting from the closest NUMA.

napi_schedule() is expected to be called either:
* From an interrupt, where raised softirqs are handled on IRQ exit
* From a softirq disabled section, where raised softirqs are handled on
the next call to local_bh_enable().
* From a softirq handler, where raised softirqs are handled on the next
round in do_softirq(), or further deferred to a dedicated kthread.
Other bare tasks context may end up ignoring the raised NET_RX vector
until the next random softirq handling opportunity, which may not
happen before a while if the CPU goes idle afterwards with the tick
stopped.
Such "misuses" have been detected on several places thanks to messages
of the kind:
"NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!!"
For example:
__raise_softirq_irqoff
__napi_schedule
rtl8152_runtime_resume.isra.0
rtl8152_resume
usb_resume_interface.isra.0
usb_resume_both
__rpm_callback
rpm_callback
rpm_resume
__pm_runtime_resume
usb_autoresume_device
usb_remote_wakeup
hub_event
process_one_work
worker_thread
kthread
ret_from_fork
ret_from_fork_asm
And also:
* drivers/net/usb/r8152.c::rtl_work_func_t
* drivers/net/netdevsim/netdev.c::nsim_start_xmit
There is a long history of issues of this kind:
019edd01d1 ("ath10k: sdio: Add missing BH locking around napi_schdule()")
3300685893 ("idpf: disable local BH when scheduling napi for marker packets")

8cf699ec84 ("mlx4: do not call napi_schedule() without care")
ec13ee8014 ("virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule")
This shows that relying on the caller to arrange a proper context for
the softirqs to be handled while calling napi_schedule() is very fragile
and error prone. Also fixing them can also prove challenging if the
caller may be called from different kinds of contexts.
Therefore fix this from napi_schedule() itself with waking up ksoftirqd
when softirqs are raised from task contexts.

Add a new sock_ops callback, BPF_SOCK_OPS_TSTAMP_SCHED_CB. This
callback will occur at the same timestamping point as the user
space's SCM_TSTAMP_SCHED. The BPF program can use it to get the
same SCM_TSTAMP_SCHED timestamp without modifying the user-space
application.

ensuring that the new BPF timestamping and the current user
space's SO_TIMESTAMPING do not interfere with each other.

After the previous commit is finally safe to revert commit dbae2b0628
("net: skb: introduce and use a single page frag cache"): do it here.
The intended goal of such change was to counter a performance regression
introduced by commit 3226b158e6 ("net: avoid 32 x truesize
under-estimation for tiny skbs").
Unfortunately, the blamed commit introduces another regression for the
virtio_net driver. Such a driver calls napi_alloc_skb() with a tiny
size, so that the whole head frag could fit a 512-byte block.
The single page frag cache uses a 1K fragment for such allocation, and
the additional overhead, under small UDP packets flood, makes the page
allocator a bottleneck.
Thanks to commit bf9f1baa27 ("net: add dedicated kmem_cache for
typical/small skb->head"), this revert does not re-introduce the
original regression. Actually, in the relevant test on top of this
revert, I measure a small but noticeable positive delta, just above
noise level.
The revert itself required some additional mangling due to recent updates
in the affected code.

After the cited commit, dev_net(dev) is fetched before holding RTNL
and passed to __unregister_netdevice_notifier_net().
However, dev_net(dev) might be different after holding RTNL.
In the reported case [0], while removing a VF device, its netns was
being dismantled and the VF was moved to init_net.
So the following sequence is basically illegal when dev was fetched
without lookup:
net = dev_net(dev);
rtnl_net_lock(net);
Let's use a new helper rtnl_net_dev_lock() to fix the race.
It fetches dev_net_rcu(dev), bumps its net->passive, and checks if
dev_net_rcu(dev) is changed after rtnl_net_lock().

Remove the redundant inner declaration and reuse the existing old_flags

safe to reuse the variable. This eliminates the warning while

David Wei says:
====================
io_uring zero copy rx
This patchset contains net/ patches needed by a new io_uring request
implementing zero copy rx into userspace pages, eliminating a kernel
to user copy.
We configure a page pool that a driver uses to fill a hw rx queue to
hand out user pages instead of kernel pages. Any data that ends up
hitting this hw rx queue will thus be dma'd into userspace memory
directly, without needing to be bounced through kernel memory. 'Reading'
data out of a socket instead becomes a _notification_ mechanism, where
the kernel tells userspace where the data is. The overall approach is
similar to the devmem TCP proposal.
This relies on hw header/data split, flow steering and RSS to ensure
packet headers remain in kernel memory and only desired flows hit a hw
rx queue configured for zero copy. Configuring this is outside of the
scope of this patchset.
We share netdev core infra with devmem TCP. The main difference is that
io_uring is used for the uAPI and the lifetime of all objects are bound
to an io_uring instance. Data is 'read' using a new io_uring request
type. When done, data is returned via a new shared refill queue. A zero
copy page pool refills a hw rx queue from this refill queue directly. Of
course, the lifetime of these data buffers are managed by io_uring
rather than the networking stack, with different refcounting rules.
This patchset is the first step adding basic zero copy support. We will
extend this iteratively with new features e.g. dynamically allocated
zero copy areas, THP support, dmabuf support, improved copy fallback,
general optimisations and more.
In terms of netdev support, we're first targeting Broadcom bnxt. Patches
aren't included since Taehee Yoo has already sent a more comprehensive
patchset adding support in [1]. Google gve should already support this,
and Mellanox mlx5 support is WIP pending driver changes.

Drivers should always disable a NAPI instance before removing it.
If they don't the instance may be queued for polling.
Since commit 86e25f40aa ("net: napi: Add napi_config")
we also remove the NAPI from the busy polling hash table
in napi_disable(), so not disabling would leave a stale
entry there.
Use of busy polling is relatively uncommon so bugs may be lurking
in the drivers. Add an explicit warning.

After the blamed commits below, some UDP tunnel use dstats for
accounting. On the xmit path, all the UDP-base tunnels ends up
using iptunnel_xmit_stats() for stats accounting, and the latter
assumes the relevant (tunnel) network device uses tstats.
The end result is some 'funny' stat report for the mentioned UDP
tunnel, e.g. when no packet is actually dropped and a bunch of
packets are transmitted:
gnv2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1450 qdisc noqueue \
state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether ee:7d:09:87:90:ea brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
RX: bytes packets errors dropped missed mcast
14916 23 0 15 0 0
TX: bytes packets errors dropped carrier collsns
0 1566 0 0 0 0
Address the issue ensuring the same binary layout for the overlapping
fields of dstats and tstats. While this solution is a bit hackish, is
smaller and with no performance pitfall compared to other alternatives
i.e. supporting both dstat and tstat in iptunnel_xmit_stats() or
reverting the blamed commit.
With time we should possibly move all the IP-based tunnel (and virtual
devices) to dstats.

Device-bound programs are used to support RX metadata kfuncs. These
kfuncs are driver-specific and rely on the driver context to read the
metadata. This means they can't work in generic XDP mode. However, there
is no check to disallow such programs from being attached in generic
mode, in which case the metadata kfuncs will be called in an invalid
context, leading to crashes.
Fix this by adding a check to disallow attaching device-bound programs
in generic mode.

Page ppol tried to cache the NAPI ID in page pool info to avoid
having a dependency on the life cycle of the NAPI instance.
Since commit under Fixes the NAPI ID is not populated until
napi_enable() and there's a good chance that page pool is
created before NAPI gets enabled.
Protect the NAPI pointer with the existing page pool mutex,
the reading path already holds it. napi_id itself we need
to READ_ONCE(), it's protected by netdev_lock() which are
not holding in page pool.
Before this patch napi IDs were missing for mlx5:

This patch addresses issues with filter counting in block (tcf_block),
particularly for software bypass scenarios, by introducing a more
accurate mechanism using useswcnt.
Previously, filtercnt and skipswcnt were introduced by:
Commit 2081fd3445 ("net: sched: cls_api: add filter counter") and
Commit f631ef39d8 ("net: sched: cls_api: add skip_sw counter")
filtercnt tracked all tp (tcf_proto) objects added to a block, and
skipswcnt counted tp objects with the skipsw attribute set.
The problem is: a single tp can contain multiple filters, some with skipsw
and others without. The current implementation fails in the case:
When the first filter in a tp has skipsw, both skipswcnt and filtercnt
are incremented, then adding a second filter without skipsw to the same
tp does not modify these counters because tp->counted is already set.
This results in bypass software behavior based solely on skipswcnt
equaling filtercnt, even when the block includes filters without
skipsw. Consequently, filters without skipsw are inadvertently bypassed.
To address this, the patch introduces useswcnt in block to explicitly count
tp objects containing at least one filter without skipsw. Key changes
include:
Whenever a filter without skipsw is added, its tp is marked with usesw
and counted in useswcnt. tc_run() now uses useswcnt to determine software
bypass, eliminating reliance on filtercnt and skipswcnt.
This refined approach prevents software bypass for blocks containing
mixed filters, ensuring correct behavior in tc_run().
Additionally, as atomic operations on useswcnt ensure thread safety and
tp->lock guards access to tp->usesw and tp->counted, the broader lock
down_write(&block->cb_lock) is no longer required in tc_new_tfilter(),
and this resolves a performance regression caused by the filter counting
mechanism during parallel filter insertions.
The improvement can be demonstrated using the following script:
# cat insert_tc_rules.sh
tc qdisc add dev ens1f0np0 ingress
for i in $(seq 16); do
taskset -c $i tc -b rules_$i.txt &
done
wait
Each of rules_$i.txt files above includes 100000 tc filter rules to a
mlx5 driver NIC ens1f0np0.
