Add a tracepoint to log in rxrpc_resend() which packets will be
retransmitted. Note that if a positive ACK comes in whilst we have dropped
the lock to retransmit another packet, the actual retransmission may not
happen, though some of the effects will (such as altering the congestion
management).

Add a tracepoint to log proposed ACKs, including whether the proposal is
used to update a pending ACK or is discarded in favour of an easlier,
higher priority ACK.
Whilst we're at it, get rid of the rxrpc_acks() function and access the
name array directly. We do, however, need to validate the ACK reason
number given to trace_rxrpc_rx_ack() to make sure we don't overrun the
array.

rxrpc_send_call_packet() is invoking the tx_ack tracepoint before it checks
whether there's an ACK to transmit (another thread may jump in and transmit
it).
Fix this by only invoking the tracepoint if we get a valid ACK to transmit.
Further, only allocate a serial number if we're going to actually transmit
something.

When the last packet of data to be transmitted on a call is queued, tx_top
is set and then the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag is set. Unfortunately, this
leaves a race in the ACK processing side of things because the flag affects
the interpretation of tx_top and also allows us to start receiving reply
data before we've finished transmitting.
To fix this, make the following changes:
(1) rxrpc_queue_packet() now sets a marker in the annotation buffer
instead of setting the RXRPC_CALL_TX_LAST flag.
(2) rxrpc_rotate_tx_window() detects the marker and sets the flag in the
same context as the routines that use it.
(3) rxrpc_end_tx_phase() is simplified to just shift the call state.
The Tx window must have been rotated before calling to discard the
last packet.
(4) rxrpc_receiving_reply() is added to handle the arrival of the first
DATA packet of a reply to a client call (which is an implicit ACK of
the Tx phase).
(5) The last part of rxrpc_input_ack() is reordered to perform Tx
rotation, then soft-ACK application and then to end the phase if we've
rotated the last packet. In the event of a terminal ACK, the soft-ACK
application will be skipped as nAcks should be 0.
(6) rxrpc_input_ackall() now has to rotate as well as ending the phase.
In addition:
(7) Alter the transmit tracepoint to log the rotation of the last packet.
(8) Remove the no-longer relevant queue_reqack tracepoint note. The
ACK-REQUESTED packet header flag is now set as needed when we actually
transmit the packet and may vary by retransmission.

Fix the call timer in the following ways:
(1) If call->resend_at or call->ack_at are before or equal to the current
time, then ignore that timeout.
(2) If call->expire_at is before or equal to the current time, then don't
set the timer at all (possibly we should queue the call).
(3) Don't skip modifying the timer if timer_pending() is true. This
indicates that the timer is working, not that it has expired and is
running/waiting to run its expiry handler.
Also call rxrpc_set_timer() to start the call timer going rather than
calling add_timer().

When rxrpc_input_soft_acks() is parsing the soft-ACKs from an ACK packet,
it updates the Tx packet annotations in the annotation buffer. If a
soft-ACK is an ACK, then we overwrite unack'd, nak'd or to-be-retransmitted
states and that is fine; but if the soft-ACK is an NACK, we overwrite the
to-be-retransmitted with a nak - which isn't.
Instead, we need to let any scheduled retransmission stand if the packet
was NAK'd.
Note that we don't reissue a resend if the annotation is in the
to-be-retransmitted state because someone else must've scheduled the
resend already.

Support Remote Invalidation. A private message is exchanged with
the client upon RDMA transport connect that indicates whether
Send With Invalidation may be used by the server to send RPC
replies. The invalidate_rkey is arbitrarily chosen from among
rkeys present in the RPC-over-RDMA header's chunk lists.
Send With Invalidate improves performance only when clients can
recognize, while processing an RPC reply, that an rkey has already
been invalidated. That has been submitted as a separate change.
In the future, the RPC-over-RDMA protocol might support Remote
Invalidation properly. The protocol needs to enable signaling
between peers to indicate when Remote Invalidation can be used
for each individual RPC.

The ctxt's count field is overloaded to mean the number of pages in
the ctxt->page array and the number of SGEs in the ctxt->sge array.
Typically these two numbers are the same.
However, when an inline RPC reply is constructed from an xdr_buf
with a tail iovec, the head and tail often occupy the same page,
but each are DMA mapped independently. In that case, ->count equals
the number of pages, but it does not equal the number of SGEs.
There's one more SGE, for the tail iovec. Hence there is one more
DMA mapping than there are pages in the ctxt->page array.
This isn't a real problem until the server's iommu is enabled. Then
each RPC reply that has content in that iovec orphans a DMA mapping
that consists of real resources.
krb5i and krb5p always populate that tail iovec. After a couple
million sent krb5i/p RPC replies, the NFS server starts behaving
erratically. Reboot is needed to clear the problem.

With TCP MTU probing enabled and offload TX checksumming disabled,
tcp_mtu_probe() calculated the wrong checksum when a fragment being copied
into the probe's SKB had an odd length. This was caused by the direct use
of skb_copy_and_csum_bits() to calculate the checksum, as it pads the
fragment being copied, if needed. When this fragment was not the last, a
subsequent call used the previous checksum without considering this
padding.
The effect was a stale connection in one way, as even retransmissions
wouldn't solve the problem, because the checksum was never recalculated for
the full SKB length.

It looks like the following patch can make FQ very precise, even in VM
or stressed hosts. It matters at high pacing rates.
We take into account the difference between the time that was programmed
when last packet was sent, and current time (a drift of tens of usecs is
often observed)
Add an EWMA of the unthrottle latency to help diagnostics.
This latency is the difference between current time and oldest packet in
delayed RB-tree. This accounts for the high resolution timer latency,
but can be different under stress, as fq_check_throttled() can be
opportunistically be called from a dequeue() called after an enqueue()
for a different flow.

sctp_acked() is using 32bit arithmetics on 16bits vars, via TSN_lte()
macros, which is weird and confusing.
Once the offset to ctsn is calculated, all wrapping is already handled
and thus to verify the Gap Ack blocks we can just use pure
less/big-or-equal than checks.
Also, rename gap variable to tsn_offset, so it's more meaningful, as
it doesn't point to any gap at all.
Even so, I don't think this discrepancy resulted in any practical bug.
This patch is a preparation for the next one, which will introduce
typecheck() for TSN_lte() macros and would cause a compile error here.

Currently, the user can specify the queue numbers by _QUEUE_NUM and
_QUEUE_TOTAL attributes, this is enough in most situations.
But acctually, it is not very flexible, for example:
tcp dport 80 mapped to queue0
tcp dport 81 mapped to queue1
tcp dport 82 mapped to queue2
In order to do this thing, we must add 3 nft rules, and more
mapping meant more rules ...
So take one register to select the queue number, then we can add one
simple rule to mapping queues, maybe like this:
queue num tcp dport map { 80:0, 81:1, 82:2 ... }
Florian Westphal also proposed wider usage scenarios:
queue num jhash ip saddr . ip daddr mod ...
queue num meta cpu ...
queue num meta mark ...
The last point is how to load a queue number from sreg, although we can
use *(u16*)®s->data[reg] to load the queue number, just like nat expr
to load its l4port do.
But we will cooperate with hash expr, meta cpu, meta mark expr and so on.
They all store the result to u32 type, so cast it to u16 pointer and
dereference it will generate wrong result in the big endian system.
So just keep it simple, we treat queue number as u32 type, although u16
type is already enough.

Each namespace has an owning user namespace and now there is not way
to discover these relationships.
Pid and user namepaces are hierarchical. There is no way to discover
parent-child relationships too.
Why we may want to know relationships between namespaces?
One use would be visualization, in order to understand the running
system. Another would be to answer the question: what capability does
process X have to perform operations on a resource governed by namespace
Y?
One more use-case (which usually called abnormal) is checkpoint/restart.
In CRIU we are going to dump and restore nested namespaces.
There [1] was a discussion about which interface to choose to determing
relationships between namespaces.
Eric suggested to add two ioctl-s [2]:
> Grumble, Grumble. I think this may actually a case for creating ioctls
> for these two cases. Now that random nsfs file descriptors are bind

Here is an implementaions of these ioctl-s.
$ man man7/namespaces.7
...
Since Linux 4.X, the following ioctl(2) calls are supported for
namespace file descriptors. The correct syntax is:
fd = ioctl(ns_fd, ioctl_type);
where ioctl_type is one of the following:
NS_GET_USERNS
Returns a file descriptor that refers to an owning user names‐
pace.
NS_GET_PARENT
Returns a file descriptor that refers to a parent namespace.
This ioctl(2) can be used for pid and user namespaces. For
user namespaces, NS_GET_PARENT and NS_GET_USERNS have the same
meaning.
In addition to generic ioctl(2) errors, the following specific ones
can occur:
EINVAL NS_GET_PARENT was called for a nonhierarchical namespace.
EPERM The requested namespace is outside of the current namespace
scope.

rxrpc: Preparation for slow-start algorithm [ver #2]
Here are some patches that prepare for improvements in ACK generation and
for the implementation of the slow-start part of the protocol:
(1) Stop storing the protocol header in the Tx socket buffers, but rather
generate it on the fly. This potentially saves a little space and
makes it easier to alter the header just before transmission (the
flags may get altered and the serial number has to be changed).
(2) Mask off the Tx buffer annotations and add a flag to record which ones
have already been resent.
(3) Track RTT on a per-peer basis for use in future changes. Tracepoints
are added to log this.
(4) Send PING ACKs in response to incoming calls to elicit a PING-RESPONSE
ACK from which RTT data can be calculated. The response also carries
other useful information.
(5) Expedite PING-RESPONSE ACK generation from sendmsg. If we're actively
using sendmsg, this allows us, under some circumstances, to avoid
having to rely on the background work item to run to generate this
ACK.
This requires ktime_sub_ms() to be added.
(6) Set the REQUEST-ACK flag on some DATA packets to elicit ACK-REQUESTED
ACKs from which RTT data can be calculated.
(7) Limit the use of pings and ACK requests for RTT determination.
Changes:
(V2) Don't use the C division operator for 64-bit division. One instance
should use do_div() and the other should be using nsecs_to_jiffies().
The last two patches got transposed, leading to an undefined symbol
in one of them.
