In order to increase the drivers reliability in noisy environments,

On processors with multi-engine crypto accelerators, it is possible that
multiple records get encrypted in parallel and their encryption
completion is notified to different cpus in multicore processor. This
leads to the situation where tls_encrypt_done() starts executing in
parallel on different cores. In current implementation, encrypted
records are queued to tx_ready_list in tls_encrypt_done(). This requires
addition to linked list 'tx_ready_list' to be protected. As
tls_decrypt_done() could be executing in irq content, it is not possible
to protect linked list addition operation using a lock.

To fix the problem, we remove linked list addition operation from the
irq context. We do tx_ready_list addition/removal operation from
application context only and get rid of possible multiple access to
the linked list. Before starting encryption on the record, we add it to
the tail of tx_ready_list. To prevent tls_tx_records() from transmitting
it, we mark the record with a new flag 'tx_ready' in 'struct tls_rec'.
When record encryption gets completed, tls_encrypt_done() has to only
update the 'tx_ready' flag to true & linked list add operation is not
required.

The changed logic brings some other side benefits. Since the records
are always submitted in tls sequence number order for encryption, the
tx_ready_list always remains sorted and addition of new records to it
does not have to traverse the linked list.

Lastly, we renamed tx_ready_list in 'struct tls_sw_context_tx' to
'tx_list'. This is because now, the some of the records at the tail are
not ready to transmit.

Up until now, mlxsw tolerated firmware versions that weren't exactly

allowed the users to test various firmware versions as long as they were

On the other hand, it made it impossible for mlxsw to put a hard lower
bound on a version that fixes all problems known to date. If a user had
a somewhat older FW version installed, mlxsw would start up just fine,
possibly performing non-optimally as it would use features that trigger

Currently, ip[6]frag_high_thresh sysctl values in new namespaces are
hard-limited to those of the root/init ns.

There are at least two use cases when it would be desirable to
set the high_thresh values higher in a child namespace vs the global hard
limit:

- a security/ddos protection policy may lower the thresholds in the
  root/init ns but allow for a special exception in a child namespace
- testing: a test running in a namespace may want to set these
  thresholds higher in its namespace than what is in the root/init ns

The new behavior:

 # ip netns add testns
 # ip netns exec testns bash

 # sysctl -w net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh=9000000
 net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh = 9000000

 # sysctl net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh
 net.ipv4.ipfrag_high_thresh = 9000000

 # sysctl -w net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh=9000000
 net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh = 9000000

 # sysctl net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh
 net.ipv6.ip6frag_high_thresh = 9000000

 # ip netns add testns
 # ip netns exec testns bash

tcp: switch to Early Departure Time model

In the early days, pacing has been implemented in sch_fq (FQ)
in a generic way :

- SO_MAX_PACING_RATE could be used by any sockets.

- TCP would vary effective pacing rate based on CWND*MSS/SRTT

- FQ would ensure delays between packets based on current
  sk->sk_pacing_rate, but with some quantum based artifacts.
  (inflating RPC tail latencies)

- BBR then tweaked the pacing rate in its various phases
  (PROBE, DRAIN, ...)

This worked reasonably well, but had the side effect that TCP RTT
samples would be inflated by the sojourn time of the packets in FQ.

Also note that when FQ is not used and TCP wants pacing, the
internal pacing fallback has very different behavior, since TCP
emits packets at the time they should be sent (with unreasonable
assumptions about scheduling costs)

Van Jacobson gave a talk at Netdev 0x12 in Montreal, about letting
TCP (or applications for UDP messages) decide of the Earliest
Departure Time, instead of letting packet schedulers derive it
from pacing rate.

Recent additions in linux provided SO_TXTIME and a new ETF qdisc
supporting the new skb->tstamp role

This patch series converts TCP and FQ to the same model.

This might in the future allow us to relax tight TSQ limits
(if FQ is present in the output path), and thus lower
number of callbacks to tcp_write_xmit(), thanks to batching.

This will be followed by FQ change allowing SO_TXTIME support
so that QUIC servers can let the pacing being done in FQ (or
offloaded if network device permits)

TCP keeps track of tcp_wstamp_ns by itself, meaning sch_fq
no longer has to do it.

Thanks to this model, TCP can get more accurate RTT samples,
since pacing no longer inflates them.

This has the nice effect of removing some delays caused by FQ
quantum mechanism, causing inflated max/P99 latencies.

Also we might relax TCP Small Queue tight limits in the future,
since this new model allow TCP to build bigger batches, since
sch_fq (or a device with earliest departure time offload) ensure
these packets will be delivered on time.

Note that other protocols are not converted (they will probably
never be) so sch_fq has still support for SO_MAX_PACING_RATE

Tested:

Test showing FQ pacing quantum artifact for low-rate flows,
adding unexpected throttles for RPC flows, inflating max and P99 latencies.

The parameters chosen here are to show what happens typically when
a TCP flow has a reduced pacing rate (this can be caused by a reduced
cwin after few losses, or/and rtt above few ms)
