====================
net/ipv6: Separate data structures for FIB and data path

IPv6 uses the same data struct for both control plane (FIB entries) and
data path (dst entries). This struct has elements needed for both paths
adding memory overhead and complexity (taking a dst hold in most places
but an additional reference on rt6i_ref in a few). Furthermore, because
of the dst_alloc tie, all FIB entries are allocated with GFP_ATOMIC.

This patch set separates FIB entries from dst entries, better aligning
IPv6 code with IPv4, simplifying the reference counting and allowing
FIB entries added by userspace (not autoconf) to use GFP_KERNEL. It is
first step to a number of performance and scalability changes.

The end result of this patch set:
  - FIB entries (fib6_info):
        /* size: 208, cachelines: 4, members: 25 */
        /* sum members: 207, holes: 1, sum holes: 1 */

  - dst entries (rt6_info)
       /* size: 240, cachelines: 4, members: 11 */

Versus the the single rt6_info struct today for both paths:
      /* size: 320, cachelines: 5, members: 28 */

This amounts to a 35% reduction in memory use for FIB entries and a
25% reduction for dst entries.

With respect to locking FIB entries use RCU and a single atomic
counter with fib6_info_hold and fib6_info_release helpers to manage
the reference counting. dst entries use only the traditional dst
refcounts with dst_hold and dst_release.

FIB entries for host routes are referenced by inet6_ifaddr and
ifacaddr6. In both cases, additional holds are taken -- similar to
what is done for devices.

This set is the first of many changes to improve the scalability of the
IPv6 code. Follow on changes include:
- consolidating duplicate fib6_info references like IPv4 does with
  duplicate fib_info

- moving fib6_info into a slab cache to avoid allocation roundups to
  power of 2 (the 208 size becomes a 256 actual allocation)

- Allow FIB lookups without generating a dst (e.g., most rt6_lookup
  users just want to verify the egress device). Means moving dst
  allocation to the other side of fib6_rule_lookup which again aligns
  with IPv4 behavior

- using separate standalone nexthop objects which have performance
  benefits beyond fib_info consolidation

At this point I am not seeing any refcount leaks or underflows, no
oops or bug_ons, or warnings from kasan, so I think it is ready for
others to beat up on it finding errors in code paths I have missed.

IPv6 FIB will only contain FIB entries with exception routes added to
the FIB entry. Once this transformation is complete, FIB lookups will
return a fib6_info with the lookup functions still returning a dst
based rt6_info. The current code uses rt6_info for both paths and
overloads the rt6_info variable usually called 'rt'.

This patch introduces a new 'f6i' variable name for the result of the FIB
lookup and keeps 'rt' as the dst based return variable. 'f6i' becomes a
fib6_info in a later patch which is why it is introduced as f6i now;
avoids the additional churn in the later patch.

In addition, remove RTF_CACHE and dst checks from fib6 add and delete
since they can not happen now and will never happen after the data

Similar to IPv4, add fib metrics to the fib struct, which at the moment
is rt6_info. Will be moved to fib6_info in a later patch. Copy metrics
into dst by reference using refcount.

To make the transition:
- add dst_metrics to rt6_info. Default to dst_default_metrics if no
  metrics are passed during route add. No need for a separate pmtu
  entry; it can reference the MTU slot in fib6_metrics

- ip6_convert_metrics allocates memory in the FIB entry and uses
  ip_metrics_convert to copy from netlink attribute to metrics entry

- the convert metrics call is done in ip6_route_info_create simplifying
  the route add path
  + fib6_commit_metrics and fib6_copy_metrics and the temporary
    mx6_config are no longer needed

- add fib6_metric_set helper to change the value of a metric in the
  fib entry since dst_metric_set can no longer be used

- cow_metrics for IPv6 can drop to dst_cow_metrics_generic

- rt6_dst_from_metrics_check is no longer needed

- rt6_fill_node needs the FIB entry and dst as separate arguments to
  keep compatibility with existing output. Current dst address is
  renamed to dest.
  (to be consistent with IPv4 rt6_fill_node really should be split
  into 2 functions similar to fib_dump_info and rt_fill_info)

  - rt6i_flags contains RTF_ANYCAST: fc_type = RTN_ANYCAST

Send a netlink notification when userspace adds a manually configured
address if DAD is enabled and optimistic flag isn't set.
Moreover send RTM_DELADDR notifications for tentative addresses.

Some userspace applications (e.g. NetworkManager) are interested in
addr netlink events albeit the address is still in tentative state,
however events are not sent if DAD process is not completed.
If the address is added and immediately removed userspace listeners
are not notified. This behaviour can be easily reproduced by using
veth interfaces:

$ ip -b - <<EOF
> link add dev vm1 type veth peer name vm2
> link set dev vm1 up
> link set dev vm2 up
> addr add 2001:db8:a:b:1:2:3:4/64 dev vm1

The NCSI driver defines a generic ncsi_channel_filter struct that can be
used to store arbitrarily formatted filters, and several generic methods
of accessing data stored in such a filter.
However in both the driver and as defined in the NCSI specification
there are only two actual filters: VLAN ID filters and MAC address
filters. The splitting of the MAC filter into unicast, multicast, and
mixed is also technically not necessary as these are stored in the same
location in hardware.

To save complexity, particularly in the set up and accessing of these
generic filters, remove them in favour of two specific structs. These
can be acted on directly and do not need several generic helper
functions to use.

This also fixes a memory error found by KASAN on ARM32 (which is not
upstream yet), where response handlers accessing a filter's data field
could write past allocated memory.

XDP redirect memory return API

Submitted against net-next, as it contains NIC driver changes.

This patchset works towards supporting different XDP RX-ring memory
allocators.  As this will be needed by the AF_XDP zero-copy mode.

The patchset uses mlx5 as the sample driver, which gets implemented
XDP_REDIRECT RX-mode, but not ndo_xdp_xmit (as this API is subject to
change thought the patchset).

A new struct xdp_frame is introduced (modeled after cpumap xdp_pkt).
And both ndo_xdp_xmit and the new xdp_return_frame end-up using this.

Support for a driver supplied allocator is implemented, and a
refurbished version of page_pool is the first return allocator type
introduced.  This will be a integration point for AF_XDP zero-copy.

The mlx5 driver evolve into using the page_pool, and see a performance
increase (with ndo_xdp_xmit out ixgbe driver) from 6Mpps to 12Mpps.

The patchset stop at 16 patches (one over limit), but more API changes
are planned.  Specifically extending ndo_xdp_xmit and xdp_return_frame
APIs to support bulking.  As this will address some known limits.

The bpf infrastructure and verifier goes to great length to avoid
bpf progs leaking kernel (pointer) info.

For queueing an xdp_buff via XDP_REDIRECT, xdp_frame info stores
kernel info (incl pointers) in top part of frame data (xdp->data_hard_start).
Checks are in place to assure enough headroom is available for this.

This info is not cleared, and if the frame is reused, then a
malicious user could use bpf_xdp_adjust_head helper to move
xdp->data into this area.  Thus, making this area readable.

This is not super critical as XDP progs requires root or
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, which are privileged enough for such info.  An
effort (is underway) towards moving networking bpf hooks to the
lesser privileged mode CAP_NET_ADMIN, where leaking such info
should be avoided.  Thus, this patch to clear the info when
needed.

completion, result in the cache-line is change to "Shared"
state. Later when the page is reused for RX, then this xdp_frame
cache-line is written, which change the state to "Modified".

This situation already happens (naturally) for, virtio_net, tun and
cpumap as the xdp_frame pointer is the queued object.  In tun and
cpumap, the ptr_ring is used for efficiently transferring cache-lines
(with pointers) between CPUs. Thus, the only option is to
de-referencing xdp_frame.

It is only the ixgbe driver that had an optimization, in which it can
avoid doing the de-reference of xdp_frame.  The driver already have
TX-ring queue, which (in case of remote DMA-TX completion) have to be
transferred between CPUs anyhow.  In this data area, we stored a
struct xdp_mem_info and a data pointer, which allowed us to avoid
de-referencing xdp_frame.

To compensate for this, a prefetchw is used for telling the cache
coherency protocol about our access pattern.  My benchmarks show that
this prefetchw is enough to compensate the ixgbe driver.

This patch shows how it is possible to have both the driver local page
cache, which uses elevated refcnt for "catching"/avoiding SKB
put_page returns the page through the page allocator.  And at the
same time, have pages getting returned to the page_pool from
ndp_xdp_xmit DMA completion.

The performance improvement for XDP_REDIRECT in this patch is really
good.  Especially considering that (currently) the xdp_return_frame
API and page_pool_put_page() does per frame operations of both
rhashtable ID-lookup and locked return into (page_pool) ptr_ring.
(It is the plan to remove these per frame operation in a followup
patchset).

The benchmark performed was RX on mlx5 and XDP_REDIRECT out ixgbe,
with xdp_redirect_map (using devmap) . And the target/maximum
capability of ixgbe is 13Mpps (on this HW setup).

Before this patch for mlx5, XDP redirected frames were returned via
the page allocator.  The single flow performance was 6Mpps, and if I
started two flows the collective performance drop to 4Mpps, because we
hit the page allocator lock (further negative scaling occurs).

Two test scenarios need to be covered, for xdp_return_frame API, which
is DMA-TX completion running on same-CPU or cross-CPU free/return.
Results were same-CPU=10Mpps, and cross-CPU=12Mpps.  This is very
close to our 13Mpps max target.

The reason max target isn't reached in cross-CPU test, is likely due
to RX-ring DMA unmap/map overhead (which doesn't occur in ixgbe to
ixgbe testing).  It is also planned to remove this unnecessary DMA
unmap in a later patchset

V2: Adjustments requested by Tariq
 - Changed page_pool_create return codes not return NULL, only
   ERR_PTR, as this simplifies err handling in drivers.
 - Save a branch in mlx5e_page_release
 - Correct page_pool size calc for MLX5_WQ_TYPE_LINKED_LIST_STRIDING_RQ

V5: Updated patch desc

V8: Adjust for b0cedc84 ("net/mlx5e: Remove rq_headroom field from params")
V9:
 - Adjust for 121e8927 ("net/mlx5e: Refactor RQ XDP_TX indication")
 - Adjust for 73281b78 ("net/mlx5e: Derive Striding RQ size from MTU")
 - Correct handling if page_pool_create fail for MLX5_WQ_TYPE_LINKED_LIST_STRIDING_RQ

V10: Req from Tariq
 - Change pool_size calc for MLX5_WQ_TYPE_LINKED_LIST_STRIDING_RQ
