Trying to batch Tx response events results in poor performance because
this delays freeing the transmitted skbs.
Instead use the standard RING_FINAL_CHECK_FOR_RESPONSES() macro to be
notified once the next Tx response is placed on the ring.

The PV network protocol is using 4KB page granularity. The goal of this
patch is to allow a Linux using 64KB page granularity using network
device on a non-modified Xen.
It's only necessary to adapt the ring size and break skb data in small
chunk of 4KB. The rest of the code is relying on the grant table code.
Note that we allocate a Linux page for each rx skb but only the first
4KB is used. We may improve the memory usage by extending the size of
the rx skb.

Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN
is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for
PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and
confused developers about the expected behavior.
For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name.
Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN.
For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with
gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some
reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests
No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even
though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion
in xen repo.
Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a
name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page.
Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such
as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up
will come in follow-up patches.

Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along

backend.
The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in
general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to
various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also
included.
Affected Xen drivers:
* blkfront/back
* netfront/back
* pcifront/back
* scsifront/back
* vtpmfront

xen-netfront limits transmitted skbs to be at most 44 segments in size. However,
GSO permits up to 65536 bytes, which means a maximum of 45 segments of 1448
bytes each. This slight reduction in the size of packets means a slight loss in
efficiency.
Since c/s 9ecd1a75d, xen-netfront sets gso_max_size to
XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER,
where XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE is 65535 bytes.
The calculation used by tcp_tso_autosize (and also tcp_xmit_size_goal since c/s
6c09fa09d) in determining when to split an skb into two is
sk->sk_gso_max_size - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER.
So the maximum permitted size of an skb is calculated to be
(XEN_NETIF_MAX_TX_SIZE - MAX_TCP_HEADER) - 1 - MAX_TCP_HEADER.
Intuitively, this looks like the wrong formula -- we don't need two TCP headers.
Instead, there is no need to deviate from the default gso_max_size of 65536 as
this already accommodates the size of the header.
Currently, the largest skb transmitted by netfront is 63712 bytes (44 segments
of 1448 bytes each), as observed via tcpdump. This patch makes netfront send
skbs of up to 65160 bytes (45 segments of 1448 bytes each).
Similarly, the maximum allowable mtu does not need to subtract MAX_TCP_HEADER as
it relates to the size of the whole packet, including the header.

In netfront the Rx and Tx path are independent and use different
locks. The Tx lock is held with hard irqs disabled, but Rx lock is
held with only BH disabled. Since both sides use the same stats lock,
a deadlock may occur.
[ INFO: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected ]
3.16.2 #16 Not tainted
---------------------------------------------------------
swapper/0/0 just changed the state of lock:
(&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock){-.....}, at: [<c03adec8>]
xennet_tx_interrupt+0x14/0x34
but this lock took another, HARDIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(&stat->syncp.seq#2){+.-...}
and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.
other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock);
lock(&stat->syncp.seq#2);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&queue->tx_lock)->rlock);
Using separate locks for the Rx and Tx stats fixes this deadlock.

After d75b1ade56 (net: less interrupt
masking in NAPI) the napi instance is removed from the per-cpu list
prior to calling the n->poll(), and is only requeued if all of the
budget was used. This inadvertently broke netfront because netfront
does not use NAPI correctly.
If netfront had not used all of its budget it would do a final check
for any Rx responses and avoid calling napi_complete() if there were
more responses. It would still return under budget so it would never
be rescheduled. The final check would also not re-enable the Rx
interrupt.
Additionally, xenvif_poll() would also call napi_complete() /after/
enabling the interrupt. This resulted in a race between the
napi_complete() and the napi_schedule() in the interrupt handler. The
use of local_irq_save/restore() avoided by race iff the handler is
running on the same CPU but not if it was running on a different CPU.
Fix both of these by always calling napi_compete() if the budget was
not all used, and then calling napi_schedule() if the final checks
says there's more work.

Commit 97a6d1bb2b (xen-netfront: Fix
handling packets on compound pages with skb_linearize) attempted to
fix a problem where an skb that would have required too many slots
would be dropped causing TCP connections to stall.
However, it filled in the first slot using the original buffer and not
the new one and would use the wrong offset and grant access to the
wrong page.
Netback would notice the malformed request and stop all traffic on the
VIF, reporting:
vif vif-3-0 vif3.0: txreq.offset: 85e, size: 4002, end: 6144
vif vif-3-0 vif3.0: fatal error; disabling device

These BUGs can be erroneously triggered by frags which refer to
tail pages within a compound page. The data in these pages may
overrun the hardware page while still being contained within the
compound page, but since compound_order() evaluates to 0 for tail
pages the assertion fails. The code already iterates through
subsequent pages correctly in this scenario, so the BUGs are
unnecessary and can be removed.

A full Rx ring only requires 1 MiB of memory. This is not enough
memory that it is useful to dynamically scale the number of Rx
requests in the ring based on traffic rates, because:
a) Even the full 1 MiB is a tiny fraction of a typically modern Linux
VM (for example, the AWS micro instance still has 1 GiB of memory).
b) Netfront would have used up to 1 MiB already even with moderate
data rates (there was no adjustment of target based on memory
pressure).
c) Small VMs are going to typically have one VCPU and hence only one
queue.
Keeping the ring full of Rx requests handles bursty traffic better
than trying to converge on an optimal number of requests to keep
filled.
On a 4 core host, an iperf -P 64 -t 60 run from dom0 to a 4 VCPU guest
improved from 5.1 Gbit/s to 5.6 Gbit/s. Gains with more bursty
traffic are expected to be higher.

the stack to determine whether software GSO is needed to be done. A
driver should populate this function if it advertises GSO types for
which there are combinations that it wouldn't be able to handle. For
instance a device that performs UDP tunneling might only implement

or might have limitations on lengths of inner headers.

There is a long known problem with the netfront/netback interface: if the guest
tries to send a packet which constitues more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 ring slots,
it gets dropped. The reason is that netback maps these slots to a frag in the
frags array, which is limited by size. Having so many slots can occur since
compound pages were introduced, as the ring protocol slice them up into
individual (non-compound) page aligned slots. The theoretical worst case
scenario looks like this (note, skbs are limited to 64 Kb here):
linear buffer: at most PAGE_SIZE - 17 * 2 bytes, overlapping page boundary,
using 2 slots
first 15 frags: 1 + PAGE_SIZE + 1 bytes long, first and last bytes are at the
end and the beginning of a page, therefore they use 3 * 15 = 45 slots
last 2 frags: 1 + 1 bytes, overlapping page boundary, 2 * 2 = 4 slots
Although I don't think this 51 slots skb can really happen, we need a solution
which can deal with every scenario. In real life there is only a few slots
overdue, but usually it causes the TCP stream to be blocked, as the retry will
most likely have the same buffer layout.
This patch solves this problem by linearizing the packet. This is not the
fastest way, and it can fail much easier as it tries to allocate a big linear
area for the whole packet, but probably easier by an order of magnitude than
anything else. Probably this code path is not touched very frequently anyway.

Since netfront may reconnect to a backend with a different number of
queues, all per-queue Rx and Tx resources (skbs and grant references)
should be freed when disconnecting.
Without this fix, the Tx and Rx grant refs are not released and
netfront will exhaust them after only a few reconnections. netfront
will fail to connect when no free grant references are available.
Since all Rx bufs are freed and reallocated instead of reused this
will add some additional delay to the reconnection but this is
expected to be small compared to the time taken by any backend hotplug
scripts etc.

In xennet_disconnect_backend(), netif_carrier_off() was called once
per queue when it needs to only be called once.
The queue locking around the netif_carrier_off() call looked very
odd. I think they were supposed to synchronize any NAPI instances with
the expectation that no further NAPI instances would be scheduled
because of the carrier being off (see the check in
xennet_rx_interrupt()). But I can't easily tell if this works
correctly.
Instead, add a napi_synchronize() call after disabling the interrupts.
This is obviously correct as with no Rx interrupts, no further NAPI
instances will be scheduled.

The nesting of the per-queue rx_lock and tx_lock in xennet_connect()
is confusing to both humans and lockdep. The locking is safe because
this is the only place where the locks are nested in this way but
lockdep still warns.
Instead of adding the missing lockdep annotations, refactor the
locking to avoid the confusing nesting. This is still safe, because
the xenbus connection state changes are all serialized by the xenwatch
thread.

When reconnecting to the backend (after a resume/migration, for example),
a different number of queues may be required (since the guest may have
moved to a different host with different capabilities). During the
reconnection the old queues are torn down and new ones created.
Introduce xennet_create_queues() and xennet_destroy_queues() that fixes
three bugs during the reconnection.
- The old info->queues was leaked.
- The old queue's napi instances were not deleted.
- The new queue's napi instances were left disabled (which meant no
packets could be received).
The xennet_destroy_queues() calls is deferred until the reconnection
instead of the disconnection (in xennet_disconnect_backend()) because
napi_disable() might sleep.
