Commit 5e953778 ("ipconfig: add
nameserver IPs to kernel-parameter ip=") adds the IP addresses of
discovered name servers to the summary printed by ipconfig when
configuration is complete. It appears the intention in ip_auto_config()
was to print the name servers on a new line (especially given the
spacing and lack of comma before "nameserver0="), but they're actually
printed on the same line as the NFS root filesystem configuration
summary:

  [    0.686186] IP-Config: Complete:
  [    0.686226]      device=eth0, hwaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, ipaddr=10.0.0.2, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=10.0.0.1
  [    0.686328]      host=test, domain=example.com, nis-domain=(none)
  [    0.686386]      bootserver=10.0.0.1, rootserver=10.0.0.1, rootpath=     nameserver0=10.0.0.1

This makes it harder to read and parse ipconfig's output. Instead, print
the name servers on a separate line:

  [    0.791250] IP-Config: Complete:
  [    0.791289]      device=eth0, hwaddr=xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx, ipaddr=10.0.0.2, mask=255.255.255.0, gw=10.0.0.1

ic_do_bootp_ext() is responsible for parsing the "ip=" and "nfsaddrs="
kernel parameters. If a "." character is found in parameter 4 (the
client's hostname), everything before the first "." is used as the
hostname, and everything after it is used as the NIS domain name (but
not necessarily the DNS domain name).

====================
A few rhashtables cleanups

2 patches fixes documentation
1 fixes a bit in rhashtable_walk_start()
1 improves rhashtable_walk stability.

All reviewed and Acked.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When a walk of an rhashtable is interrupted with rhastable_walk_stop()
and then rhashtable_walk_start(), the location to restart from is based
on a 'skip' count in the current hash chain, and this can be incorrect
if insertions or deletions have happened.  This does not happen when
the walk is not stopped and started as iter->p is a placeholder which
is safe to use while holding the RCU read lock.

In rhashtable_walk_start() we can revalidate that 'p' is still in the
same hash chain.  If it isn't then the current method is still used.

With this patch, if a rhashtable walker ensures that the current
object remains in the table over a stop/start period (possibly by
elevating the reference count if that is sufficient), it can be sure
that a walk will not miss objects that were in the hashtable for the
whole time of the walk.

rhashtable_walk_start() may not find the object even though it is
still in the hashtable if a rehash has moved it to a new table.  In
this case it will (eventually) get -EAGAIN and will need to proceed
through the whole table again to be sure to see everything at least
once.

Introduce adaptive TX interrupt moderation to net DIM

Net DIM is a library designed for dynamic interrupt moderation. It was
implemented and optimized with receive side interrupts in mind, since these
are usually the CPU expensive ones. This patch-set introduces adaptive transmit
interrupt moderation to net DIM, complete with a usage in the mlx5e driver.
Using adaptive TX behavior would reduce interrupt rate for multiple scenarios.
Furthermore, it is essential for increasing bandwidth on cases where payload
aggregation is required.

v3: Remove "inline" from functions in .c files (requested by DaveM). Revert
adding "enabled" field from struct net_dim and applied mlx5e structural
suggestions (suggested by SaeedM).

v2: Rebase over proper tree.

v1: Fix compilation issues due to missed function renaming.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Add support for adaptive TX moderation. This greatly reduces TX interrupt
rate and increases bandwidth, mostly for TCP bandwidth over ARM
architecture (below). There is a slight single stream TCP with very large
message sizes degradation (x86). In this case if there's any moderation on
transmitted packets the bandwidth would reduce due to hitting TCP output limit.
Since this is a synthetic case, this is still worth doing.

Performance improvement (ConnectX-4Lx 40GbE, ARM)
TCP 64B bandwidth with 1-50 streams increased 6-35%.
TCP 64B bandwidth with 100-500 streams increased 20-70%.

Performance improvement (ConnectX-5 100GbE, x86)
Bandwidth: increased up to 40% (1024B with 10s of streams).
Interrupt rate: reduced up to 50% (1024B with 1000s of streams).

Performance degradation (ConnectX-5 100GbE, x86)
Bandwidth: up to 10% decrease single stream TCP (1MB message size from
51Gb/s to 47Gb/s).

Interrupt moderation for TX traffic requires different profiles than RX
interrupt moderation. The main goal here is to reduce interrupt rate and
allow better payload aggregation by keeping SKBs in the TX queue a bit
longer. Ping-pong behavior would get a profile with a short timer, so
latency wouldn't increase for these scenarios. There might be a slight
degradation in bandwidth for single stream with large message sizes, since
net.ipv4.tcp_limit_output_bytes is limiting the allowed TX traffic, but
with many streams performance is always improved.

Similar to commit a2ac9990 ("vhost-net: set packet weight of
tx polling to 2 * vq size"), we need a packet-based limit for
handler_rx, too - elsewhere, under rx flood with small packets,
tx can be delayed for a very long time, even without busypolling.

The pkt limit applied to handle_rx must be the same applied by
handle_tx, or we will get unfair scheduling between rx and tx.
Tying such limit to the queue length makes it less effective for
large queue length values and can introduce large process
scheduler latencies, so a constant valued is used - likewise
the existing bytes limit.

The selected limit has been validated with PVP[1] performance
test with different queue sizes:

queue size		256	512	1024

baseline		366	354	362
weight 128		715	723	670
weight 256		740	745	733
weight 512		600	460	583
weight 1024		423	427	418

A packet weight of 256 gives peek performances in under all the
tested scenarios.

No measurable regression in unidirectional performance tests has
been detected.

tcp_rcv_space_adjust is called every time data is copied to user space,
introducing a tcp tracepoint for which could show us when the packet is
copied to user.

When a tcp packet arrives, tcp_rcv_established() will be called and with
the existed tracepoint tcp_probe we could get the time when this packet
arrives.
Then this packet will be copied to user, and tcp_rcv_space_adjust will
be called and with this new introduced tracepoint we could get the time
when this packet is copied to user.
With these two tracepoints, we could figure out whether the user program
processes this packet immediately or there's latency.

Hence in the printk message, sk_cookie is printed as a key to relate
tcp_rcv_space_adjust with tcp_probe.

Maybe we could export sockfd in this new tracepoint as well, then we
could relate this new tracepoint with epoll/read/recv* tracepoints, and
finally that could show us the whole lifespan of this packet. But we
could also implement that with pid as these functions are executed in
process context.

When a dst entry is created from a fib entry, the 'from' in rt6_info

fib entry is changed.

When a fib entry is deleted, the pcpu routes on it are walked releasing
the fib6_info reference. This is needed for the fib6_info cleanup to
happen and to make sure all device references are released in a timely
manner.

There is a race window when a FIB entry is deleted and the 'from' on the
pcpu route is dropped and the pcpu route hits a cookie check. Handle
