Introduce net_rwsem to protect net_namespace_list

The series introduces fine grained rw_semaphore, which will be used
instead of rtnl_lock() to protect net_namespace_list.

This improves scalability and allows to do non-exclusive sleepable
iteration for_each_net(), which is enough for most cases.

all to CC.

rt_genid_bump_all() consists of ipv4 and ipv6 part.
ipv4 part is incrementing of net::ipv4::rt_genid,
and I see many places, where it's read without rtnl_lock().

ipv6 part calls __fib6_clean_all(), and it's also
called without rtnl_lock() in other places.

and we can remove it.

This function iterates over net_namespace_list and flushes
the queue for every of them. What does this rtnl_lock()
protects?! Since we may add skbs to net::wext_nlevents
without rtnl_lock(), it does not protects us about queuers.

It guarantees, two threads can't flush the queue in parallel,
that can change the order, but since skb can be queued
in any order, it doesn't matter, how many threads do this
in parallel. In case of several threads, this will be even
faster.

So, we can remove rtnl_lock() here, as it was used for
iteration over net_namespace_list only.

rtnl_lock() is used everywhere, and contention is very high.
When someone wants to iterate over alive net namespaces,
he/she has no a possibility to do that without exclusive lock.
But the exclusive rtnl_lock() in such places is overkill,
and it just increases the contention. Yes, there is already
for_each_net_rcu() in kernel, but it requires rcu_read_lock(),
and this can't be sleepable. Also, sometimes it may be need
really prevent net_namespace_list growth, so for_each_net_rcu()
is not fit there.

This patch introduces new rw_semaphore, which will be used
instead of rtnl_mutex to protect net_namespace_list. It is
sleepable and allows not-exclusive iterations over net
namespaces list. It allows to stop using rtnl_lock()
in several places (what is made in next patches) and makes
less the time, we keep rtnl_mutex. Here we just add new lock,
while the explanation of we can remove rtnl_lock() there are
in next patches.

Fine grained locks generally are better, then one big lock,
so let's do that with net_namespace_list, while the situation
allows that.

sfc: rework locking around filter management

The use of a spinlock to protect filter state combined with the need for a
 sleeping operation (MCDI) to apply that state to the NIC (on EF10) led to
 unfixable race conditions, around the handling of filter restoration after
 an MC reboot.
So, this patch series removes the requirement to be able to modify the SW
 filter table from atomic context, by using a workqueue to request
 asynchronous filter operations (which are needed for ARFS).  Then, the
 filter table locks are changed to mutexes, replacing the dance of spinlocks
 and 'busy' flags.  Also, a mutex is added to protect the RSS context state,
 since otherwise a similar race is possible around restoring that after an
 MC reboot.  While we're at it, fix a couple of other related bugs.

 because the destination VI (spec->dmaq_id, MC_CMD_FILTER_OP_IN_RX_QUEUE) does

Instead of having an efx->type->filter_rfs_insert() method, just use
 workitems with a worker function that calls efx->type->filter_insert().
The only user of this is efx_filter_rfs(), which now queues a call to
 efx_filter_rfs_work().
Similarly, efx_filter_rfs_expire() is now a worker function called on a
 new channel->filter_work work_struct, so the method
 efx->type->filter_rfs_expire_one() is no longer called in atomic context.
 We also add a new mutex efx->rps_mutex to protect the RPS state (efx->
 rps_expire_channel, efx->rps_expire_index, and channel->rps_flow_id) so
 that the taking of efx->filter_lock can be moved to
 efx->type->filter_rfs_expire_one().
Thus, all filter table functions are now called in a sleepable context,
 allowing them to use sleeping locks in a future patch.

If tdc is executing test cases inside a namespace, only the
first command in a compound statement will be executed inside
the namespace by tdc. As a result, the subsequent commands
are not executed inside the namespace and the test will fail.

Example:

for i in {x..y}; do args="foo"; done && tc actions add $args

The namespace execution feature will prepend 'ip netns exec'
to the command:

ip netns exec tcut for i in {x..y}; do args="foo"; done && \
  tc actions add $args

So the actual tc command is not parsed by the shell as being
part of the namespace execution.

Enclosing these compound statements inside a bash invocation
with proper escape characters resolves the problem by creating
a subshell inside the namespace.

net: mvpp2: Remove unnecessary dynamic allocs

Some utility functions in mvpp2 make use of dynamic alloc to exchange temporary
objects representing Parser Entries (which are generic filtering entries in the
PPv2 controller).

These objects are small (44 bytes each), we can use the stack to exchange them.

Some previous discussion on this topic showed that the mvpp2_prs_hw_read, which
initializes a struct mvpp2_prs_entry based on one of its fields, can easily lead
to erroneous code if we don't zero-out the struct beforehand :

https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/3/21/739

To fix this, I propose to rename mvpp2_prs_hw_read into mvpp2_prs_init_from_hw,
make it zero-out the struct and take the index as a parameter. That's what's
done in the first patch of the series.

The second patch is the V3 of
("net: mvpp2: Don't use dynamic allocs for local variables"), making use of
mvpp2_prs_init_from_hw and taking previous comments into account.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Some helper functions that search for given entries in the TCAM filter
on PPv2 controller make use of dynamically alloced temporary variables,
allocated with GFP_KERNEL. These functions can be called in atomic
context, and dynamic alloc is not really needed in these cases anyways.

This commit gets rid of dynamic allocs and use stack allocation in the
following functions, and where they're used :
 - mvpp2_prs_flow_find
 - mvpp2_prs_vlan_find
 - mvpp2_prs_double_vlan_find
 - mvpp2_prs_mac_da_range_find

For all these functions, instead of returning an temporary object
representing the TCAM entry, we simply return the TCAM id that matches
the requested entry.

The mvpp2_prs_hw_read function uses the 'index' field of the struct
mvpp2_prs_entry to initialize the rest of the fields. This makes it
unclear from a caller's perspective, who needs to manipulate a struct
that is not entirely initialized.

This commit makes it an init function for prs_entry, by passing it the
index as a parameter. The function now zeroes the entry, and sets the
index field before doing all other init from HW.

The function is renamed 'mvpp2_prs_init_from_hw' to make that clear.
