After TIPC doesn't depend on iocb argument in its internal
implementations of sendmsg() and recvmsg() hooks defined in proto
structure, no any user is using iocb argument in them at all now.
Then we can drop the redundant iocb argument completely from kinds of
implementations of both sendmsg() and recvmsg() in the entire
networking stack.

Currently the iocb argument is used to idenfiy whether or not socket
lock is hold before tipc_sendmsg()/tipc_send_stream() is called. But
this usage prevents iocb argument from being dropped through sendmsg()
at socket common layer. Therefore, in the commit we introduce two new
functions called __tipc_sendmsg() and __tipc_send_stream(). When they
are invoked, it assumes that their callers have taken socket lock,
thereby avoiding the weird usage of iocb argument.

In a previous commit in this series we resolved a race problem during
unicast message reception.
Here, we resolve the same problem at multicast reception. We apply the
same technique: an input queue serializing the delivery of arriving
buffers. The main difference is that here we do it in two steps.
First, the broadcast link feeds arriving buffers into the tail of an
arrival queue, which head is consumed at the socket level, and where
destination lookup is performed. Second, if the lookup is successful,
the resulting buffer clones are fed into a second queue, the input
queue. This queue is consumed at reception in the socket just like
in the unicast case. Both queues are protected by the same lock, -the
one of the input queue.

The structure 'tipc_port_list' is used to collect port numbers
representing multicast destination socket on a receiving node.
The list is not based on a standard linked list, and is in reality
optimized for the uncommon case that there are more than one
multicast destinations per node. This makes the list handling
unecessarily complex, and as a consequence, even the socket
multicast reception becomes more complex.
In this commit, we replace 'tipc_port_list' with a new 'struct
tipc_plist', which is based on a standard list. We give the new
list stack (push/pop) semantics, someting that simplifies
the implementation of the function tipc_sk_mcast_rcv().

TIPC handles message cardinality and sequencing at the link layer,
before passing messages upwards to the destination sockets. During the
upcall from link to socket no locks are held. It is therefore possible,
and we see it happen occasionally, that messages arriving in different
threads and delivered in sequence still bypass each other before they
reach the destination socket. This must not happen, since it violates
the sequentiality guarantee.
We solve this by adding a new input buffer queue to the link structure.
Arriving messages are added safely to the tail of that queue by the
link, while the head of the queue is consumed, also safely, by the
receiving socket. Sequentiality is secured per socket by only allowing
buffers to be dequeued inside the socket lock. Since there may be multiple
simultaneous readers of the queue, we use a 'filter' parameter to reduce
the risk that they peek the same buffer from the queue, hence also
reducing the risk of contention on the receiving socket locks.
This solves the sequentiality problem, and seems to cause no measurable
performance degradation.
A nice side effect of this change is that lock handling in the functions
tipc_rcv() and tipc_bcast_rcv() now becomes uniform, something that
will enable future simplifications of those functions.

The list for outgoing traffic buffers from a socket is currently
allocated on the stack. This forces us to initialize the queue for
each sent message, something costing extra CPU cycles in the most
critical data path. Later in this series we will introduce a new
safe input buffer queue, something that would force us to initialize
even the spinlock of the outgoing queue. A closer analysis reveals
that the queue always is filled and emptied within the same lock_sock()
session. It is therefore safe to use a queue aggregated in the socket
itself for this purpose. Since there already exists a queue for this
in struct sock, sk_write_queue, we introduce use of that queue in

The function tipc_msg_eval() is in reality doing two related, but

This is confusing, and in this commit we choose to break it up into two
functions. A new function, tipc_msg_lookup_dest(), first attempts to find

The most common usage of namespace information is when we fetch the
own node addess from the net structure. This leads to a lot of
passing around of a parameter of type 'struct net *' between
functions just to make them able to obtain this address.
However, in many cases this is unnecessary. The own node address
is readily available as a member of both struct tipc_sock and
tipc_link, and can be fetched from there instead.
The fact that the vast majority of functions in socket.c and link.c
anyway are maintaining a pointer to their respective base structures
makes this option even more compelling.
In this commit, we introduce the inline functions tsk_own_node()
and link_own_node() to make it easy for functions to fetch the node
address from those structs instead of having to pass along and
dereference the namespace struct.
In particular, we make calls to the msg_xx() functions in msg.{h,c}
context independent by directly passing them the own node address
as parameter when needed. Those functions should be regarded as
leaves in the code dependency tree, and it is hence desirable to
keep them namspace unaware.
Apart from a potential positive effect on cache behavior, these
changes make it easier to introduce the changes that will follow
later in this series.

especially after namespace is completely supported.
If port ID is replaced with socket instance as tipc_sk_timeout()'s

handler - tipc_sk_timeout() is run asynchronously, socket reference
must be held before its timer is launched, and must be carefully

As tipc reference table is statically allocated, its memory size
requested on stack initialization stage is quite big even if the
maximum port number is just restricted to 8191 currently, however,
the number already becomes insufficient in practice. But if the
maximum ports is allowed to its theory value - 2^32, its consumed
memory size will reach a ridiculously unacceptable value. Apart from
this, heavy tipc users spend a considerable amount of time in
tipc_sk_get() due to the read-lock on ref_table_lock.
If tipc reference table is converted with generic rhashtable, above
mentioned both disadvantages would be resolved respectively: making
use of the new resizable hash table can avoid locking on the lookup;
smaller memory size is required at initial stage, for example, 256
hash bucket slots are requested at the beginning phase instead of
allocating the entire 8191 slots in old mode. The hash table will
grow if entries exceeds 75% of table size up to a total table size
of 1M, and it will automatically shrink if usage falls below 30%,
but the minimum table size is allowed down to 256.
Also converts ref_table_lock to a separate mutex to protect hash table
mutations on write side. Lastly defers the release of the socket
reference using call_rcu() to allow using an RCU read-side protected
call to rhashtable_lookup().

to tipc_sk_sock_show() and tipc_sk_reinit() repectively.

After the latest changes to the socket/port layer the existence of
the functions tipc_port_init() and tipc_port_destroy() cannot be
justified. They are both called only once, from tipc_sk_create() and
tipc_sk_delete() respectively, and their functionality can better be
merged into the latter two functions.
This also entails that all remaining references to port_lock now are
made from inside socket.c, something that will make it easier to remove
this lock.

The function tipc_acknowledge() is a remnant from the obsolete native
API. Currently, it grabs port_lock, before building an acknowledge
message and sending it to the peer.
Since all access to socket members now is protected by the socket lock,
it has become unnecessary to grab port_lock here.
In this commit, we remove the usage of port_lock, simplify the
function, and move it to socket.c, renaming it to tipc_sk_send_ack().

tipc_port_connect()/tipc_port_disconnect() are remnants of the obsolete
native API. Their only task is to grab port_lock and call the functions
__tipc_port_connect()/__tipc_port_disconnect() respectively, which will
perform the actual state change.
Since socket/port exection now is single-threaded the use of port_lock
is not needed any more, so we can safely replace the two functions with
their lock-free counterparts.
In this commit, we remove the two functions. Furthermore, the contents
of __tipc_port_disconnect() is so trivial that we choose to eliminate
that function too, expanding its functionality into tipc_shutdown().
__tipc_port_connect() is simplified, moved to socket.c, and given the
more correct name tipc_sk_finish_conn(). Finally, we eliminate the
function auto_connect(), and expand its contents into filter_connect().

tipc_port_shutdown() is a remnant from the now obsolete native
interface. As such it grabs port_lock in order to protect itself
from concurrent BH processing.
However, after the recent changes to the port/socket upcalls, sockets
are now basically single-threaded, and all execution, except the read-only
tipc_sk_timer(), is executing within the protection of lock_sock(). So
the use of port_lock is not needed here.
In this commit we eliminate the whole function, and merge it into its
only caller, tipc_shutdown().
