cbfd12b3e8 net: phy: ensure phylib state machine is stopped after calling phy_stop
The call to the phylib state machine in phy_stop() just ensures that
the state machine isn't re-triggered, but a state machine call may
be scheduled already. So lets's call phy_stop_machine().
This also allows to get rid of the call to phy_stop_machine() in
phy_disconnect().

435f3f2677 Merge branch 'tcp_openreq_child'
Eric Dumazet says:

====================
tcp: remove code from tcp_create_openreq_child()

tcp_create_openreq_child() is essentially cloning a listener, then
must initialize some fields that can not be inherited.

Listeners are either fresh sockets, or sockets that came through
tcp_disconnect() after a session that dirtied many fields.

By moving code to tcp_disconnect(), we can shorten time taken
to create a clone, since tcp_disconnect() operation is very
unlikely.

In the current implementation, on interface down we disabled NAPI and
then manually drained any remaining ingress frames. This could lead
to a situation when, under heavy traffic, the data availability
notification for some of the channels would not get rearmed correctly.

Change the implementation such that we let all remaining ingress frames
be processed as usual and only disable NAPI once the hardware queues
are empty.

We also add a wait on the Tx side, to allow hardware time to process
all in-flight Tx frames before issueing the disable command.

039d52e15e Merge branch 'vxlan-FDB-veto'
Petr Machata says:

====================
vxlan: Allow vetoing FDB operations

mlxsw does not implement handling of the more advanced types of VXLAN
FDB entries. In order to provide visibility to users, it is important to
be able to reject such FDB entries, ideally with an explanation passed
in extended ack. This patch set implements this.

In patches #1-#4, vxlan is gradually transformed to support vetoing of
FDB entries added (or modified) through vxlan_fdb_update(), and the
default FDB entry added in __vxlan_dev_create().

Patches #5-#7 deal with vxlan_changelink(). The existing code recognizes
that vxlan_fdb_update() may fail, but doesn't attempt to keep things
intact if it does. These patches change the function in several steps to
gracefully handle vetoes (or other failures).

Then in patches #8-#11, extack arguments are added, respectively, to
ndo_fdb_add(), mlxsw's mlxsw_sp_nve_ops.fdb_replay, the functions that
connect to the VXLAN vetoing code, and call_switchdev_notifiers(). Note
that call_switchdev_blocking_notifiers() already does support extack.

Finally in patch #12, mlxsw is extended to add extack messages to
rejected FDB entries. In patch #13, the functionality is tested.

4c59b7d160 vxlan: Add extack to switchdev operations
There are four sources of VXLAN switchdev notifier calls:

- the changelink() link operation, which already supports extack,
- ndo_fdb_add() which got extack support in a previous patch,
- FDB updates due to packet forwarding,
- and vxlan_fdb_replay().

Extend vxlan_fdb_switchdev_call_notifiers() to include extack in the
switchdev message that it sends, and propagate the argument upwards to
the callers. For the first two cases, pass in the extack gotten through
the operation. For case #3, pass in NULL.

To cover the last case, extend vxlan_fdb_replay() to take extack
argument, which might come from whatever operation necessitated the FDB
replay.

12ff91c8ba Merge branch 'improving-TCP-behavior-on-host-congestion'
Yuchung Cheng says:

====================
improving TCP behavior on host congestion

This patch set aims to improve how TCP handle local qdisc congestion
by simplifying the previous implementation.  Previously when an
skb fails to (re)transmit due to local qdisc congestion or other
resource issue, TCP refrains from setting the skb timestamp or the
recovery starting time.

This design makes determining when to abort a stalling socket more
complicated, as the timestamps of these tranmission attempts were
missing. The stack needs to sort of infer when the original attempt
happens. A by-product is a socket may disregard the system timeout
limit (i.e. sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_retries2 or USER_TIMEOUT option),
and continue to retry until the transmission is successful.

In data-center environment when TCP RTO is small, this could cause
the socket to retry frequently for long during qdisc congestion.

The solution is to first unconditionally timestamp skb and recovery
attempt. Then retry more conservatively (twice a second) on local
qdisc congestion but abort the sockets according to the system limit.

c1d5674f83 tcp: less aggressive window probing on local congestion
Previously when the sender fails to send (original) data packet or
window probes due to congestion in the local host (e.g. throttling
in qdisc), it'll retry within an RTO or two up to 500ms.

In low-RTT networks such as data-centers, RTO is often far below
the default minimum 200ms. Then local host congestion could trigger
a retry storm pouring gas to the fire. Worse yet, the probe counter
(icsk_probes_out) is not properly updated so the aggressive retry
may exceed the system limit (15 rounds) until the packet finally
slips through.

On such rare events, it's wise to retry more conservatively
(500ms) and update the stats properly to reflect these incidents
and follow the system limit. Note that this is consistent with
the behaviors when a keep-alive probe or RTO retry is dropped
due to local congestion.

transmission.

Instead we can estimate how long the socket has been stalling
with the probe count and the exponential backoff behavior.

Create a helper to model TCP exponential backoff for the next patch.
This is pure refactor w no behavior change.

c7d13c8faa tcp: properly track retry time on passive Fast Open
This patch addresses a corner issue on timeout behavior of a
passive Fast Open socket.  A passive Fast Open server may write
and close the socket when it is re-trying SYN-ACK to complete
the handshake. After the handshake is completely, the server does
not properly stamp the recovery start time (tp->retrans_stamp is
0), and the socket may abort immediately on the very first FIN
timeout, instead of retying until it passes the system or user
specified limit.

7ae189759c tcp: always set retrans_stamp on recovery
Previously TCP socket's retrans_stamp is not set if the
retransmission has failed to send. As a result if a socket is
experiencing local issues to retransmit packets, determining when
to abort a socket is complicated w/o knowning the starting time of
the recovery since retrans_stamp may remain zero.

This complication causes sub-optimal behavior that TCP may use the
latest, instead of the first, retransmission time to compute the
elapsed time of a stalling connection due to local issues. Then TCP
may disrecard TCP retries settings and keep retrying until it finally
succeed: not a good idea when the local host is already strained.

The simple fix is to always timestamp the start of a recovery.
It's worth noting that retrans_stamp is also used to compare echo
timestamp values to detect spurious recovery. This patch does
not break that because retrans_stamp is still later than when the
original packet was sent.

7f12422c48 tcp: always timestamp on every skb transmission
Previously TCP skbs are not always timestamped if the transmission
failed due to memory or other local issues. This makes deciding
when to abort a socket tricky and complicated because the first
unacknowledged skb's timestamp may be 0 on TCP timeout.

The straight-forward fix is to always timestamp skb on every
transmission attempt. Also every skb retransmission needs to be
flagged properly to avoid RTT under-estimation. This can happen
upon receiving an ACK for the original packet and the a previous
(spurious) retransmission has failed.

It's worth noting that this reverts to the old time-stamping
style before commit 8c72c65b42 ("tcp: update skb->skb_mstamp more
carefully") which addresses a problem in computing the elapsed time
of a stalled window-probing socket. The problem will be addressed
differently in the next patches with a simpler approach.
