====================
Replacing net_mutex with rw_semaphore

this is the third version of the patchset introducing net_sem
instead of net_mutex. The patchset adds net_sem in addition
to net_mutex and allows pernet_operations to be "async". This
flag means, the pernet_operations methods are safe to be
executed with any other pernet_operations (un)initializing
another net.

If there are only async pernet_operations in the system,
net_mutex is not used either for setup_net() or for cleanup_net().

The pernet_operations converted in this patchset allow
to create minimal .config to have network working, and
the changes improve the performance like you may see
below:

    %for i in {1..10000}; do unshare -n bash -c exit; done

    *before*
    real 1m40,377s
    user 0m9,672s
    sys 0m19,928s

    *after*
    real 0m17,007s
    user 0m5,311s
    sys 0m11,779

    (5.8 times faster)

In the future, when all pernet_operations become async,
we'll just remove this "async" field tree-wide.

All the new logic is concentrated in patches [1-5/32].
The rest of patches converts specific operations:
review, rationale of they can be converted, and setting
of async flag.

These pernet operations consist of exit() and exit_batch() methods.

default_device_exit() moves not-local and virtual devices to init_net.
There is nothing exciting, because this may happen in any time
on a working system, and rtnl_lock() and synchronize_net() protect
us from all cases of external dereference.

The same for default_device_exit_batch(). Similar unregisteration
may happen in any time on a system. Here several lists (like todo_list),
which are accessed under rtnl_lock(). After rtnl_unlock() and
netdev_run_todo() all the devices are flushed.

These pernet_operations have only init() method. It allocates
memory for net_device, calls register_netdev() and assigns
net::loopback_dev.

register_netdev() is allowed be used without additional locks,
as it's synchronized on rtnl_lock(). There are many examples
of using this functon directly from ioctl().

The only difference, compared to ioctl(), is that net is not
completely alive at this moment. But it looks like, there is
no way for parallel pernet_operations to dereference
the net_device, as the most of struct net_device lists,
where it's linked, are related to net, and the net is not liked.

The exceptions are net_device::unreg_list, close_list, todo_list,
used for unregistration, and ::link_watch_list, where net_device
may be linked to global lists.

Unregistration of loopback_dev obviously can't happen, when
loopback_net_init() is executing, as the net as alive. It occurs
in default_device_ops, which currently requires net_mutex,
and it behaves as a barrier at the moment. It will be considered
in next patch.

Speaking about link_watch_list, it seems, there is no way
for loopback_dev at time of registration to be linked in lweventlist
and be available for another pernet_operations.

Currently, the mutex is mostly used to protect pernet operations
list. It orders setup_net() and cleanup_net() with parallel
{un,}register_pernet_operations() calls, so ->exit{,batch} methods
of the same pernet operations are executed for a dying net, as
were used to call ->init methods, even after the net namespace
is unlinked from net_namespace_list in cleanup_net().

But there are several problems with scalability. The first one
is that more than one net can't be created or destroyed
at the same moment on the node. For big machines with many cpus
running many containers it's very sensitive.

The second one is that it's need to synchronize_rcu() after net
is removed from net_namespace_list():

Destroy net_ns:
cleanup_net()
  mutex_lock(&net_mutex)
  list_del_rcu(&net->list)
  synchronize_rcu()                                  <--- Sleep there for ages
  list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
    ops_exit_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
  list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
    ops_free_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
  mutex_unlock(&net_mutex)

This primitive is not fast, especially on the systems with many processors
and/or when preemptible RCU is enabled in config. So, all the time, while
cleanup_net() is waiting for RCU grace period, creation of new net namespaces
is not possible, the tasks, who makes it, are sleeping on the same mutex:

Create net_ns:
copy_net_ns()
  mutex_lock_killable(&net_mutex)                    <--- Sleep there for ages

I observed 20-30 seconds hangs of "unshare -n" on ordinary 8-cpu laptop
with preemptible RCU enabled after CRIU tests round is finished.

The solution is to convert net_mutex to the rw_semaphore and add fine grain
locks to really small number of pernet_operations, what really need them.

Then, pernet_operations::init/::exit methods, modifying the net-related data,
will require down_read() locking only, while down_write() will be used
for changing pernet_list (i.e., when modules are being loaded and unloaded).

This gives signify performance increase, after all patch set is applied,
like you may see here:

%for i in {1..10000}; do unshare -n bash -c exit; done

*before*
real 1m40,377s
user 0m9,672s
sys 0m19,928s

*after*
real 0m17,007s
user 0m5,311s
sys 0m11,779

(5.8 times faster)

describes the variables it protects, and makes to use, where appropriate.

The only change is that assignment:

becomes reordered with:

	list_add_tail_rcu(&net->list, &net_namespace_list);

The order does not have visible effect, and it is a simple
cleanup because of:

init_net_initialized is used in !CONFIG_NET_NS case
to order proc_net_ns_ops registration occuring at boot time:

	start_kernel()->proc_root_init()->proc_net_init(),
with
	net_ns_init()->setup_net(&init_net, &init_user_ns)

Alan fixes a spelling mistake in code comments.  Fixes an issue on older
firmware versions or NPAR enabled PFs which do not support the
I40E_FLAG_DISABLE_FW_LLDP flag and would get into a situation where any
attempt to change any priv flag would be forbidden.

Alex got busy with the ITR code and made several cleanups and fixes so
that we can more easily understand what is going on.  The fixes included
a computational fix when determining the register offset, as well as a
fix for unnecessarily toggling the CLEARPBA bit which could lead to
potential lost events if auto-masking is not enabled.

Filip adds a necessary delay to recover after a EMP reset when using

This patch replaces the existing mechanism for determining the correct
value to program for adaptive ITR with yet another new and more
complicated approach.

The basic idea from a 30K foot view is that this new approach will push the
Rx interrupt moderation up so that by default it starts in low latency and
is gradually pushed up into a higher latency setup as long as doing so
increases the number of packets processed, if the number of packets drops
to 4 to 1 per packet we will reset and just base our ITR on the size of the
packets being received. For Tx we leave it floating at a high interrupt
delay and do not pull it down unless we start processing more than 112
packets per interrupt. If we start exceeding that we will cut our interrupt
rates in half until we are back below 112.

The side effect of these patches are that we will be processing more
packets per interrupt. This is both a good and a bad thing as it means we
will not be blocking processing in the case of things like pktgen and XDP,
but we will also be consuming a bit more CPU in the cases of things such as
network throughput tests using netperf.

One delta from this versus the ixgbe version of the changes is that I have
made the interrupt moderation a bit more aggressive when we are in bulk
mode by moving our "goldilocks zone" up from 48 to 96 to 56 to 112. The
main motivation behind moving this is to address the fact that we need to
update less frequently, and have more fine grained control due to the
separate Tx and Rx ITR times.

This patch is mostly prep-work for replacing the current approach to
programming the dynamic aka adaptive ITR. Specifically here what we are
doing is splitting the Tx and Rx ITR each into two separate values.

The first value current_itr represents the current value of the register.

The second value target_itr represents the desired value of the register.

The general plan by doing this is to allow for deferring the update of the
ITR value under certain circumstances. For now we will work with what we
have, but in the future I hope to change the behavior so that we always
only update one ITR at a time using some simple logic to determine which
ITR requires an update.

While testing code for the recent ITR changes I found that updating the Tx
ITR appeared to have no effect with everything defaulting to the Rx ITR. A
bit of digging narrowed it down the fact that we were asking the PF to
associate all causes with ITR 0 as we weren't populating the itr_idx values
for either Rx or Tx.

To correct it I have added the configuration for these values to this
patch. In addition I did some minor clean-up to just add a local pointer
for the vector map instead of dereferencing it based off of the index
repeatedly. In my opinion this makes the resultant code a bit more readable
and saves us a few characters.

Instead of using the register value for the defines when setting up the
ring ITR we can just use the actual values and avoid the use of shifts and

This helps to make the code more readable as we can quickly translate from

"int *socklen" parameter is awkward. For example, if caller does not
care, it still needs to provide on-stack storage for the value
it does not need.

None of the many FOO_getname() functions of various protocols
ever used old value of *socklen. They always just overwrite it.

This change drops this parameter, and makes all these functions, on success,
return length of sockaddr. It's always >= 0 and can be differentiated
from an error.

Tests in callers are changed from "if (err)" to "if (err < 0)", where needed.

rpc_sockname() lost "int buflen" parameter, since its only use was
to be passed to kernel_getsockname() as &buflen and subsequently
not used in any way.

Userspace API is not changed.
