In the iov_iter struct, separate the iterator type from the iterator
direction and use accessor functions to access them in most places.
Convert a bunch of places to use switch-statements to access them rather
then chains of bitwise-AND statements. This makes it easier to add further
iterator types. Also, this can be more efficient as to implement a switch
of small contiguous integers, the compiler can use ~50% fewer compare
instructions than it has to use bitwise-and instructions.
Further, cease passing the iterator type into the iterator setup function.
The iterator function can set that itself. Only the direction is required.

Use accessor functions to access an iterator's type and direction. This
allows for the possibility of using some other method of determining the
type of iterator than if-chains with bitwise-AND conditions.

From Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>:
This series from Paul adds support to mlx5 e-switch tc offloading of multiple priorities and chains.
This is made of four building blocks (along with few minor driver refactors):
[1] Split FDB fast path prio to multiple namespaces
Currently the FDB name-space contains two priorities, fast path (p0) and slow path (p1).
The slow path contains the per representor SQ send-to-vport TX rule and the match-all
RX miss rule. As a pre-step to support multi-chains and priorities, we split the FDB fast path
to multiple namespaces (sub namespaces), each with multiple priorities.
[2] E-Switch chains and priorities
A chain is a group of priorities. We use the fdb parallel sub-namespaces to implement chains,
and a flow table for each priority in them.
Because these namespaces are parallel and in series to the slow path
fdb, the chains aren't connected to each other (but to the slow path),
and one must use a explicit goto action to reach a different chain.
Flow tables for the priorities are created on demand and destroyed
once not used.
[3] Add a no-append flow insertion mode, use it for TC offloads
Enhance the driver fs core, such that if a no-append flag is set by the caller,
we add a new FTE, instead of appending the actions of the inserted rule when
the same match already exists.
For encap rules, we defer the HW offloading till we have a valid neighbor. This can
result in the packet hitting a lower priority rule in the HW DP. Use the no-append API
to push these packets to the slow path FDB table, so they go to the TC kernel DP as done
before priorities where supported.
[4] Offloading tc priorities and chains for eswitch flows
Using [1], [2] and [3] above we add the support for offloading both chains
and priorities. To get to a new chain, use the tc goto action. We support
a fixed prio range 1-16, and chains 0-3.

Jann Horn points out that our TLB flushing was subtly wrong for the
mremap() case. What makes mremap() special is that we don't follow the
usual "add page to list of pages to be freed, then flush tlb, and then
free pages". No, mremap() obviously just _moves_ the page from one page
table location to another.
That matters, because mremap() thus doesn't directly control the
lifetime of the moved page with a freelist: instead, the lifetime of the
page is controlled by the page table locking, that serializes access to
the entry.
As a result, we need to flush the TLB not just before releasing the lock
for the source location (to avoid any concurrent accesses to the entry),
but also before we release the destination page table lock (to avoid the
TLB being flushed after somebody else has already done something to that
page).
This also makes the whole "need_flush" logic unnecessary, since we now
always end up flushing the TLB for every valid entry.

This changes with VxLAN encapsulation.
Devices capable of performing VxLAN encapsulation usually have only one

Therefore, bridge FDB entries pointing to a VxLAN device are only

Drivers that support tunnel decapsulation (IPinIP or NVE) need to
configure the underlying device to conform to the behavior outlined in
RFC 6040 with respect to the ECN bits.
This behavior is implemented by INET_ECN_decapsulate() which requires an
skb to be passed where the ECN CE bit can be potentially set. Since
these drivers do not need to mark an skb, but only configure the device
to do so, factor out the business logic to __INET_ECN_decapsulate() and
potentially perform the marking in INET_ECN_decapsulate().
This allows drivers to invoke __INET_ECN_decapsulate() and configure the
device.

Towards supporting multi-chains and priorities, split the FDB fast path

This patch adds a new flow steering type, FS_TYPE_PRIO_CHAINS, which is
like current FS_TYPE_PRIO, but may contain only namespaces, and those
will be in parallel to one another in terms of managing of the flow
tables connections inside them. Meaning, while searching for the next
or previous flow table to connect for a new table inside such namespace
we skip the parallel namespaces in the same level under the
FS_TYPE_PRIO_CHAINS prio we originated from.
We use this new type for splitting the fast path prio into multiple
parallel namespaces, each containing normal prios.
The prios inside them (and their tables) will be connected to one
another, but not from one parallel namespace to another, instead the
last prio in each namespace will be connected to the next prio in
the containing FDB namespace, which is the slow path prio.

cache and limits the possible users.
Move to use the counter ID across the place when dealing with flows.

There's no real reason for the e-switch logic to manage the creation of
counters for offloaded flows. The API already has the directive for the
caller to denote they want to attach a counter to the created flow.
As such, we go and move the management of flow counters to the mlx5e
tc offload logic. This also lets us remove an inelegant interface where
the FS layer had to provide a way to retrieve a counter from a flow rule.

commit 46e0c9be20 ("kernel: tracepoints: add support for relative
references") changes the layout of the __tracepoint_ptrs section on
architectures supporting relative references. However, it does so
without turning struct tracepoint * const into const int elsewhere in
the tracepoint code, which has the following side-effect:
Setting mod->num_tracepoints is done in by module.c:
mod->tracepoints_ptrs = section_objs(info, "__tracepoints_ptrs",
sizeof(*mod->tracepoints_ptrs),
&mod->num_tracepoints);
Basically, since sizeof(*mod->tracepoints_ptrs) is a pointer size
(rather than sizeof(int)), num_tracepoints is erroneously set to half the
size it should be on 64-bit arch. So a module with an odd number of
tracepoints misses the last tracepoint due to effect of integer
division.
So in the module going notifier:
for_each_tracepoint_range(mod->tracepoints_ptrs,
mod->tracepoints_ptrs + mod->num_tracepoints,
tp_module_going_check_quiescent, NULL);
the expression (mod->tracepoints_ptrs + mod->num_tracepoints) actually
evaluates to something within the bounds of the array, but miss the
last tracepoint if the number of tracepoints is odd on 64-bit arch.
Fix this by introducing a new typedef: tracepoint_ptr_t, which
is either "const int" on architectures that have PREL32 relocations,
or "struct tracepoint * const" on architectures that does not have
this feature.
Also provide a new tracepoint_ptr_defer() static inline to
encapsulate deferencing this type rather than duplicate code and
ugly idefs within the for_each_tracepoint_range() implementation.
This issue appears in 4.19-rc kernels, and should ideally be fixed
before the end of the rc cycle.

With dump filtering we need a way to ensure the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED
flag is set on a message back to the user if the data returned is
influenced by some input attributes. Normally this can be done as
messages are added to the skb, but if the filter results in no data
being returned, the user could be confused as to why.
This patch adds answer_flags to the netlink_callback allowing dump
handlers to set the NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED at a minimum in the
NLMSG_DONE message ensuring the flag gets back to the user.
The netlink_callback space is initialized to 0 via a memset in

sk_pacing_rate has beed introduced as a u32 field in 2013,
effectively limiting per flow pacing to 34Gbit.
We believe it is time to allow TCP to pace high speed flows
on 64bit hosts, as we now can reach 100Gbit on one TCP flow.
This patch adds no cost for 32bit kernels.
The tcpi_pacing_rate and tcpi_max_pacing_rate were already
exported as 64bit, so iproute2/ss command require no changes.
Unfortunately the SO_MAX_PACING_RATE socket option will stay
32bit and we will need to add a new option to let applications
control high pacing rates.

In EDT design, I made the mistake of using tcp_wstamp_ns
to store the last tcp_clock_ns() sample and to store the
pacing virtual timer.
This causes major regressions at high speed flows.
Introduce tcp_clock_cache to store last tcp_clock_ns().
This is needed because some arches have slow high-resolution
kernel time service.
tcp_wstamp_ns is only updated when a packet is sent.
Note that we can remove tcp_mstamp in the future since
tcp_mstamp is essentially tcp_clock_cache/1000, so the
apparent socket size increase is temporary.

Other than asoc pmtu sync from all transports, sctp_assoc_sync_pmtu
is also processing transport pmtu_pending by icmp packets. But it's
meaningless to use sctp_dst_mtu(t->dst) as new pmtu for a transport.
The right pmtu value should come from the icmp packet, and it would
be saved into transport->mtu_info in this patch and used later when
the pmtu sync happens in sctp_sendmsg_to_asoc or sctp_packet_config.
Besides, without this patch, as pmtu can only be updated correctly
when receiving a icmp packet and no place is holding sock lock, it
will take long time if the sock is busy with sending packets.
Note that it doesn't process transport->mtu_info in .release_cb(),
as there is no enough information for pmtu update, like for which
asoc or transport. It is not worth traversing all asocs to check
pmtu_pending. So unlike tcp, sctp does this in tx path, for which
mtu_info needs to be atomic_t.

Later, commit 2152caea71 ("ipv6: Do not depend on rt->n in rt6_probe().")

DEC FDDIcontroller 700 (DEFZA) uses a Tx/Rx queue pair to communicate
SMT frames with adapter's firmware. Any SMT frame received from the RMC
via the Rx queue is queued back by the driver to the SMT Rx queue for
the firmware to process. Similarly the firmware uses the SMT Tx queue
to supply the driver with SMT frames which are queued back to the Tx
queue for the RMC to send to the ring.
When a network tap is attached to an FDDI interface handled by `defza'
any incoming SMT frames captured are queued to our usual processing of
network data received, which in turn delivers them to any listening
taps.
However the outgoing SMT frames produced by the firmware bypass our
network protocol stack and are therefore not delivered to taps. This in
turn means that taps are missing a part of network traffic sent by the
adapter, which may make it more difficult to track down network problems
or do general traffic analysis.
Call `dev_queue_xmit_nit' then in the SMT Tx path, having checked that
a network tap is attached, with a newly-created `dev_nit_active' helper
wrapping the usual condition used in the transmit path.

Add support for the DEC FDDIcontroller 700 (DEFZA), Digital Equipment
Corporation's first-generation FDDI network interface adapter, made for
TURBOchannel and based on a discrete version of what eventually became
Motorola's widely used CAMEL chipset.
The CAMEL chipset is present for example in the DEC FDDIcontroller
TURBOchannel, EISA and PCI adapters (DEFTA/DEFEA/DEFPA) that we support
with the `defxx' driver, however the host bus interface logic and the
firmware API are different in the DEFZA and hence a separate driver is
required.
There isn't much to say about the driver except that it works, but there
is one peculiarity to mention. The adapter implements two Tx/Rx queue
pairs.
Of these one pair is the usual network Tx/Rx queue pair, in this case
used by the adapter to exchange frames with the ring, via the RMC (Ring
Memory Controller) chip. The Tx queue is handled directly by the RMC
chip and resides in onboard packet memory. The Rx queue is maintained
via DMA in host memory by adapter's firmware copying received data
stored by the RMC in onboard packet memory.
The other pair is used to communicate SMT frames with adapter's
firmware. Any SMT frame received from the RMC via the Rx queue must be
queued back by the driver to the SMT Rx queue for the firmware to
process. Similarly the firmware uses the SMT Tx queue to supply the
driver with SMT frames that must be queued back to the Tx queue for the
RMC to send to the ring.
This solution was chosen because the designers ran out of PCB space and
could not squeeze in more logic onto the board that would be required to
handle this SMT frame traffic without the need to involve the driver, as
with the later DEFTA/DEFEA/DEFPA adapters.
Finally the driver does some Frame Control byte decoding, so to avoid
magic numbers some macros are added to <linux/if_fddi.h>.
