Linux-2.6.12-rc2

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!

net: Fix skb->csum update in inet_proto_csum_replace16().

skb->csum is updated incorrectly, when manipulation for
NF_NAT_MANIP_SRC\DST is done on IPV6 packet.

Fix:
There is no need to update skb->csum in inet_proto_csum_replace16(),
because update in two fields a.) IPv6 src/dst address and b.) L4 header
checksum cancels each other for skb->csum calculation. Whereas
inet_proto_csum_replace4 function needs to update skb->csum, because
update in 3 fields a.) IPv4 src/dst address, b.) IPv4 Header checksum
and c.) L4 header checksum results in same diff as L4 Header checksum
for skb->csum calculation.

Pull networking updates from David Millar:
"Here are some highlights from the 2065 networking commits that
happened this development cycle:

1) XDP support for IXGBE (John Fastabend) and thunderx (Sunil Kowuri)

2) Add a generic XDP driver, so that anyone can test XDP even if they
lack a networking device whose driver has explicit XDP support
(me).

3) Sparc64 now has an eBPF JIT too (me)

4) Add a BPF program testing framework via BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN (Alexei
Starovoitov)

5) Make netfitler network namespace teardown less expensive (Florian
Westphal)

6) Add symmetric hashing support to nft_hash (Laura Garcia Liebana)

7) Implement NAPI and GRO in netvsc driver (Stephen Hemminger)

8) Support TC flower offload statistics in mlxsw (Arkadi Sharshevsky)

9) Multiqueue support in stmmac driver (Joao Pinto)

10) Remove TCP timewait recycling, it never really could possibly work
well in the real world and timestamp randomization really zaps any
hint of usability this feature had (Soheil Hassas Yeganeh)

11) Support level3 vs level4 ECMP route hashing in ipv4 (Nikolay
Aleksandrov)

12) Add socket busy poll support to epoll (Sridhar Samudrala)

13) Netlink extended ACK support (Johannes Berg, Pablo Neira Ayuso,
and several others)

14) IPSEC hw offload infrastructure (Steffen Klassert)"

net: Convert LIMIT_NETDEBUG to net_dbg_ratelimited

Use the more common dynamic_debug capable net_dbg_ratelimited
and remove the LIMIT_NETDEBUG macro.

All messages are still ratelimited.

Some KERN_<LEVEL> uses are changed to KERN_DEBUG.

This may have some negative impact on messages that were
emitted at KERN_INFO that are not not enabled at all unless
DEBUG is defined or dynamic_debug is enabled. Even so,
these messages are now _not_ emitted by default.

This also eliminates the use of the net_msg_warn sysctl
"/proc/sys/net/core/warnings". For backward compatibility,
the sysctl is not removed, but it has no function. The extern
declaration of net_msg_warn is removed from sock.h and made
static in net/core/sysctl_net_core.c

Miscellanea:

o Update the sysctl documentation
o Remove the embedded uses of pr_fmt
o Coalesce format fragments
o Realign arguments

net: optimise inet_proto_csum_replace4()

csum_partial() is a generic function which is not optimised for small fixed
length calculations, and its use requires to store "from" and "to" values in
memory while we already have them available in registers. This also has impact,
especially on RISC processors. In the same spirit as the change done by
Eric Dumazet on csum_replace2(), this patch rewrites inet_proto_csum_replace4()
taking into account RFC1624.

I spotted during a NATted tcp transfert that csum_partial() is one of top 5
consuming functions (around 8%), and the second user of csum_partial() is
inet_proto_csum_replace4().

net: avoid dependency of net_get_random_once on nop patching

net_get_random_once depends on the static keys infrastructure to patch up
the branch to the slow path during boot. This was realized by abusing the
static keys api and defining a new initializer to not enable the call
site while still indicating that the branch point should get patched
up. This was needed to have the fast path considered likely by gcc.

The static key initialization during boot up normally walks through all
the registered keys and either patches in ideal nops or enables the jump
site but omitted that step on x86 if ideal nops where already placed at
static_key branch points. Thus net_get_random_once branches not always
became active.

This patch switches net_get_random_once to the ordinary static_key
api and thus places the kernel fast path in the - by gcc considered -
unlikely path. Microbenchmarks on Intel and AMD x86-64 showed that
the unlikely path actually beats the likely path in terms of cycle cost
and that different nop patterns did not make much difference, thus this
switch should not be noticeable.

I initial build non irq safe version of net_get_random_once because I

I don't think this is a good idea anymore and thus this patch makes
net_get_random_once irq safe. Now someone using net_get_random_once does
not need to care from where it is called.

net: introduce new macro net_get_random_once

net_get_random_once is a new macro which handles the initialization
of secret keys. It is possible to call it in the fast path. Only the
initialization depends on the spinlock and is rather slow. Otherwise
it should get used just before the key is used to delay the entropy
extration as late as possible to get better randomness. It returns true
if the key got initialized.

The usage of static_keys for net_get_random_once is a bit uncommon so
it needs some further explanation why this actually works:

=== In the simple non-HAVE_JUMP_LABEL case we actually have ===
no constrains to use static_key_(true|false) on keys initialized with
STATIC_KEY_INIT_(FALSE|TRUE). So this path just expands in favor of
the likely case that the initialization is already done. The key is
initialized like this:

___done_key = { .enabled = ATOMIC_INIT(0) }

The check

if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \

expands into (pseudo code)

if (!likely(___done_key > 0))

, so we take the fast path as soon as ___done_key is increased from the
helper function.

=== If HAVE_JUMP_LABELs are available this depends ===
on patching of jumps into the prepared NOPs, which is done in
jump_label_init at boot-up time (from start_kernel). It is forbidden
and dangerous to use net_get_random_once in functions which are called
before that!

At compilation time NOPs are generated at the call sites of
net_get_random_once. E.g. net/ipv6/inet6_hashtable.c:inet6_ehashfn (we
need to call net_get_random_once two times in inet6_ehashfn, so two NOPs):

71: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
76: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)

Both will be patched to the actual jumps to the end of the function to
call __net_get_random_once at boot time as explained above.

arch_static_branch is optimized and inlined for false as return value and
actually also returns false in case the NOP is placed in the instruction
stream. So in the fast case we get a "return false". But because we
initialize ___done_key with (enabled != (entries & 1)) this call-site
will get patched up at boot thus returning true. The final check looks
like this:

if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \

expands to

if (!!static_key_false(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \

So we get true at boot time and as soon as static_key_slow_inc is called
on the key it will invert the logic and return false for the fast path.
static_key_slow_inc will change the branch because it got initialized
with .enabled == 0. After static_key_slow_inc is called on the key the
branch is replaced with a nop again.

=== Misc: ===
The helper defers the increment into a workqueue so we don't
have problems calling this code from atomic sections. A seperate boolean
(___done) guards the case where we enter net_get_random_once again before
the increment happend.
