CoDel can be too aggressive if a station sends at a very low rate,
leading reduced throughput. This gets worse the more stations are
present, as each station gets more bursty the longer the round-robin
scheduling between stations takes.
This adds dynamic adjustment of CoDel parameters per station. It uses
the rate selection information to estimate throughput and sets more
lenient CoDel parameters if the estimated throughput is below a
threshold (modified by the number of active stations).
A new callback is added that drivers can use to notify mac80211 about
changes in expected throughput, so the same adjustment can be made for
cards that implement rate control in firmware. Drivers that don't use
this will just get the default parameters.

BBR congestion control depends on pacing, and pacing is
currently handled by sch_fq packet scheduler for performance reasons,
and also because implemening pacing with FQ was convenient to truly
avoid bursts.
However there are many cases where this packet scheduler constraint
is not practical.
- Many linux hosts are not focusing on handling thousands of TCP
flows in the most efficient way.
- Some routers use fq_codel or other AQM, but still would like
to use BBR for the few TCP flows they initiate/terminate.
This patch implements an automatic fallback to internal pacing.
Pacing is requested either by BBR or use of SO_MAX_PACING_RATE option.
If sch_fq happens to be in the egress path, pacing is delegated to
the qdisc, otherwise pacing is done by TCP itself.
One advantage of pacing from TCP stack is to get more precise rtt
estimations, and less work done from TX completion, since TCP Small
queue limits are not generally hit. Setups with single TX queue but
many cpus might even benefit from this.
Note that unlike sch_fq, we do not take into account header sizes.
Taking care of these headers would add additional complexity for
no practical differences in behavior.
Some performance numbers using 800 TCP_STREAM flows rate limited to
~48 Mbit per second on 40Gbit NIC.
If MQ+pfifo_fast is used on the NIC :

====================
udp: scalability improvements
This patch series implement an idea suggested by Eric Dumazet to
reduce the contention of the udp sk_receive_queue lock when the socket is
under flood.
An ancillary queue is added to the udp socket, and the socket always
tries first to read packets from such queue. If it's empty, we splice
the content from sk_receive_queue into the ancillary queue.
The first patch introduces some helpers to keep the udp code small, and the
following two implement the ancillary queue strategy. The code is split
to hopefully help the reviewing process.
The measured overall gain under udp flood is up to the 30% depending on
the numa layout and the number of ingress queue used by the relevant nic.
The performance numbers have been gathered using pktgen as sender, with 64
bytes packets, random src port on a host b2b connected via a 10Gbs link
with the dut.
The receiver used the udp_sink program by Jesper [1] and an h/w l4 rx hash on
the ingress nic, so that the number of ingress nic rx queues hit by the udp
traffic could be controlled via ethtool -L.
The udp_sink program was bound to the first idle cpu, to get more
stable numbers.
On a single numa node receiver:
nic rx queues vanilla patched kernel
1 1820 kpps 1900 kpps
2 1950 kpps 2500 kpps
16 1670 kpps 2120 kpps
When using a single nic rx queue, busy polling was also enabled,
elsewhere, in the above scenario, the bh processing becomes the bottle-neck
and this produces large artifacts in the measured performances (e.g.
improving the udp sink run time, decreases the overall tput, since more
action from the scheduler comes into play).

under udp flood the sk_receive_queue spinlock is heavily contended.
This patch try to reduce the contention on such lock adding a
second receive queue to the udp sockets; recvmsg() looks first
in such queue and, only if empty, tries to fetch the data from
sk_receive_queue. The latter is spliced into the newly added
queue every time the receive path has to acquire the
sk_receive_queue lock.
The accounting of forward allocated memory is still protected with
the sk_receive_queue lock, so udp_rmem_release() needs to acquire
both locks when the forward deficit is flushed.
On specific scenarios we can end up acquiring and releasing the
sk_receive_queue lock multiple times; that will be covered by
the next patch

Since XDP TX ring holds "spare" RX buffers anyway, we don't have to
rush the completion. We can wait until ring fills up completely
before trying to reclaim buffers. If RX poll has ended an no
buffer has been queued for XDP TX we have no guarantee we will see
another interrupt, so run the reclaim there as well, to make sure
TX statistics won't become stale.
This should help us reclaim more buffers per single queue controller
register read.
Note that the XDP completion is very trivial, it only adds up
the sizes of transmitted frames for statistics so the latency
spike should be acceptable. In case user sets the ring sizes
to something crazy, limit the completion to 2k entries.
The check if the ring is empty at the beginning of xdp_complete()
is no longer needed - the callers will perform it.

Every address gets added with TENTATIVE flag even for the addresses with
IFA_F_NODAD flag and dad-work is scheduled for them. During this DAD process
we realize it's an address with NODAD and complete the process without
sending any probe. However the TENTATIVE flags stays on the
address for sometime enough to cause misinterpretation when we receive a NS.
While processing NS, if the address has TENTATIVE flag, we mark it DADFAILED
and endup with an address that was originally configured as NODAD with
DADFAILED.
We can't avoid scheduling dad_work for addresses with NODAD but we can
avoid adding TENTATIVE flag to avoid this racy situation.

Device node iterators put the previous value of the index variable, so an
explicit put causes a double put.
In particular, of_mdiobus_register can fail before doing anything
interesting, so one could view it as a no-op from the reference count
point of view.

When using a TX ring buffer, if an error occurs processing a control
message (e.g. invalid message), the net_device reference is not
released.

Macvlan always turns on offload features that have sofware
fallback (NETIF_GSO_SOFTWARE). This allows much higher guest-guest
communications over macvtap.
However, macvtap does not turn on these features for vlan tagged traffic.
As a result, depending on the HW that mactap is configured on, the
performance of guest-guest communication over a vlan is very
inconsistent. If the HW supports TSO/UFO over vlans, then the
performance will be fine. If not, the the performance will suffer
greatly since the VM may continue using TSO/UFO, and will force the host
segment the traffic and possibly overlow the macvtap queue.
This patch adds the always on offloads to vlan_features. This
makes sure that any vlan tagged traffic between 2 guest will not
be segmented needlessly.

There are two pointers in sysfs_display_ring,
one that increments if using normal dma descriptors,
another if using extended dma descriptors.
When printing the normal dma descriptors, the wrong pointer is used,
thus the printed descriptor addresses are incorrect.
