Host queues (Qdisc + NIC) can hold packets so long that TCP can
eventually retransmit a packet before the first transmit even left
the host.
Its not clear right now if we could avoid this in the first place :
- We could arm RTO timer not at the time we enqueue packets, but
at the time we TX complete them (tcp_wfree())
- Cancel the sending of the new copy of the packet if prior one
is still in queue.
This patch adds instrumentation so that we can at least see how
often this problem happens.
TCPSpuriousRtxHostQueues SNMP counter is incremented every time
we detect the fast clone is not yet freed in tcp_transmit_skb()

====================
A number of improvements for net-next/3.10.
Highlights include:
* Properly exposing linux/openvswitch.h to userspace after the uapi
changes.
* Simplification of locking. It immediately makes things simpler to
reason about and avoids holding RTNL mutex for longer than
necessary. In the near future it will also enable tunnel
registration and more fine-grained locking.

Commit 7e98d53086 (Synchronize fuse header with
one used in library) added #ifdef __linux__ around defines if it is not set.
The kernel build is self-contained and can be built on non-Linux toolchains.
After the mentioned commit builds on non-Linux toolchains will try to include
stdint.h and fail due to -nostdinc, and then fail with a bunch of undefined type
errors.
Fix by checking for __KERNEL__ instead of __linux__ and using the standard int
types instead of the linux specific ones.

This patch introduces an UAPI header for the SCTP protocol,
so that we can facilitate the maintenance and development of
user land applications or libraries, in particular in terms
of header synchronization.
To not break compatibility, some fragments from lksctp-tools'
netinet/sctp.h have been carefully included, while taking care
that neither kernel nor user land breaks, so both compile fine
with this change (for lksctp-tools I tested with the old
netinet/sctp.h header and with a newly adapted one that includes
the uapi sctp header). lksctp-tools smoke test run through
successfully as well in both cases.

This patch adds support for IPv6 tokenized IIDs, that allow
for administrators to assign well-known host-part addresses
to nodes whilst still obtaining global network prefix from
Router Advertisements. It is currently in draft status.
The primary target for such support is server platforms
where addresses are usually manually configured, rather
than using DHCPv6 or SLAAC. By using tokenised identifiers,
hosts can still determine their network prefix by use of
SLAAC, but more readily be automatically renumbered should
their network prefix change. [...]
The disadvantage with static addresses is that they are
likely to require manual editing should the network prefix
in use change. If instead there were a method to only
manually configure the static identifier part of the IPv6
address, then the address could be automatically updated
when a new prefix was introduced, as described in [RFC4192]
for example. In such cases a DNS server might be
configured with such a tokenised interface identifier of
::53, and SLAAC would use the token in constructing the
interface address, using the advertised prefix. [...]
http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02
The implementation is partially based on top of Mark K.
Thompson's proof of concept. However, it uses the Netlink
interface for configuration resp. data retrival, so that
it can be easily extended in future. Successfully tested
by myself.

Current NFQUEUE target uses a hash, computed over source and
destination address (and other parameters), for steering the packet
to the actual NFQUEUE. This, however forgets about the fact that the
packet eventually is handled by a particular CPU on user request.
If E. g.
1) IRQ affinity is used to handle packets on a particular CPU already
(both single-queue or multi-queue case)
and/or
2) RPS is used to steer packets to a specific softirq
the target easily chooses an NFQUEUE which is not handled by a process
pinned to the same CPU.
The idea is therefore to use the CPU index for determining the
NFQUEUE handling the packet.
E. g. when having a system with 4 CPUs, 4 MQ queues and 4 NFQUEUEs it
looks like this:
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
|NFQ#0| |NFQ#1| |NFQ#2| |NFQ#3|
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
^ ^ ^ ^
| |NFQUEUE | |
+ + + +
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
|rx-0 | |rx-1 | |rx-2 | |rx-3 |
+-----+ +-----+ +-----+ +-----+
The NFQUEUEs not necessarily have to start with number 0, setups with
less NFQUEUEs than packet-handling CPUs are not a problem as well.
This patch extends the NFQUEUE target to accept a new
NFQ_FLAG_CPU_FANOUT flag. If this is specified the target uses the
CPU index for determining the NFQUEUE being used. I have to introduce
rev3 for this. The 'flags' are folded into _v2 'bypass'.
By changing the way which queue is assigned, I'm able to improve the
performance if the processes reading on the NFQUEUs are pinned
correctly.

For some events it's useful to weight sample with a hardware
provided number. This expresses how expensive the action the
sample represent was. This allows the profiler to scale
the samples to be more informative to the programmer.
There is already the period which is used similarly, but it
means something different, so I chose to not overload it.
Instead a new sample type for WEIGHT is added.
Can be used for multiple things. Initially it is used for TSX
abort costs and profiling by memory latencies (so to make
expensive load appear higher up in the histograms). The concept
is quite generic and can be extended to many other kinds of
events or architectures, as long as the hardware provides
suitable auxillary values. In principle it could be also used
for software tracepoints.
This adds the generic glue. A new optional sample format for a
64-bit weight value.

ASoC/extcon: arizona: Fix interaction between HPDET and headphone outputs
This patch series covers both ASoC and extcon subsystems and fixes an
interaction between the HPDET function and the headphone outputs - we
really shouldn't run HPDET while the headphone is active. The first
patch is a refactoring to make the extcon side easier.
Userspace applications need to know the maximum supported message
size.
The cdc-wdm driver translates between a character device stream
and a message based protocol. Each message is transported as a
usb control message with no further encapsulation or syncronization.
Each read or write on the character device should translate to
exactly one usb control message to ensure that message boundaries
are kept intact. That means that the userspace application must
know the maximum message size supported by the device and driver,
making this size a vital part of the cdc-wdm character device API.
CDC WDM and CDC MBIM functions export the maximum supported
message size through CDC functional descriptors. The cdc-wdm and
cdc_mbim drivers will parse these descriptors and use the value
chosen by the device. The only current way for a userspace
application to retrive the value is by duplicating the descriptor
parsing. This is an unnecessary complex task, and application
writers are likely to postpone it, using a fixed value and adding
a "todo" item.
QMI functions have no way to tell the host what message size they
support. The qmi_wwan driver use a fixed value based on protocol
recommendations and observed device behaviour. Userspace
applications must know and hard code the same value. This scheme
will break if we ever encounter a QMI device needing a device
specific message size quirk. We are currently unable to support
such a device because using a non default size would break the
implicit userspace API.
The message size is currently a hidden attribute of the cdc-wdm
userspace API. Retrieving it is unnecessarily complex, increasing
the possibility of drivers and applications using different limits.
The resulting errors are hard to debug, and can only be replicated
on identical hardware.
Exporting the maximum message size from the driver simplifies the
task for the userspace application, and creates a unified
information source independent of device and function class. It also
serves to document that the message size is part of the cdc-wdm
userspace API.
This proposed API extension has been presented for the authors of
userspace applications and libraries using the current API: libmbim,
libqmi, uqmi, oFono and ModemManager. The replies were:
Aleksander Morgado:
"We do really need max message size for MBIM; and as you say, it may be
good to have the max message size info also for QMI, so the new ioctl
seems a good addition. So +1 from my side, for what it's worth."
Dan Williams:
"Yeah, +1 here. I'd prefer the sysfs file, but the fact that that
doesn't work for fd passing pretty much kills it."
No negative replies are so far received.

Simplify the debugging ioctls by creating the VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_NAME ioctl.
This will eventually replace VIDIOC_DBG_G_CHIP_IDENT. Chip matching is done
by the name or index of subdevices or an index to a bridge chip. Most of this
can all be done automatically, so most drivers just need to provide get/set
register ops.
In particular, it is now possible to get/set subdev registers without
requiring assistance of the bridge driver.

Groups can be received as an optional parameter NETLINK_DIAG_GROUPS.
Netlink sockets cab be filtered by protocols.
The socket inode number and cookie is reserved for future per-socket info
retrieving. The per-protocol filtering is also reserved for future by
requiring the sdiag_protocol to be zero.
The file /proc/net/netlink doesn't provide enough information for
dumping netlink sockets. It doesn't provide dst_group, dst_portid,
groups above 32.

It is very useful to do dynamic truncation of packets. In particular,
we're interested to push the necessary header bytes to the user space and
cut off user payload that should probably not be transferred for some reasons
(e.g. privacy, speed, or others). With the ancillary extension PAY_OFFSET,
we can load it into the accumulator, and return it. E.g. in bpfc syntax ...
ld #poff ; { 0x20, 0, 0, 0xfffff034 },
ret a ; { 0x16, 0, 0, 0x00000000 },
... as a filter will accomplish this without having to do a big hackery in
a BPF filter itself. Follow-up JIT implementations are welcome.
