I had many reports that TSQ logic breaks wifi aggregation.

Current logic is to allow up to 1 ms of bytes to be queued into qdisc
and drivers queues.

But Wifi aggregation needs a bigger budget to allow bigger rates to
be discovered by various TCP Congestion Controls algorithms.

This patch adds an extra socket field, allowing wifi drivers to select
another log scale to derive TCP Small Queue credit from current pacing
rate.

Initial value is 10, meaning that this patch does not change current
behavior.

We expect wifi drivers to set this field to smaller values (tests have
been done with values from 6 to 9)

They would have to use following template :

if (skb->sk && skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift != MY_PACING_SHIFT)
     skb->sk->sk_pacing_shift = MY_PACING_SHIFT;

net: improve the process of redirect and toobig for ipv6 tunnels

Now let's say there are 3 kinds of icmp packets to process for tunnels,
toobig(needfrag), redirect, others, their process should be:

 - toobig(needfrag)
   update the lower dst's pmtu by route cache, also update sk dst's pmtu
   if possible, or it will be fine if sk dst pmtu will get updated on tx
   path.

 - redirect
   update the lower dst's gw by route cache and return, no need to send
   this redirect packet to user sk.

 - others
   send the packet to user's sk, or it will also be fine to use err_count
   to count it and report fail link on tx path.

All ipv4 tunnels basically follow this while some of ipv6 tunnels are
doing in different ways, like ip6gre and ip6_tunnels update tnl dev's
mtu instead of updating lower dst pmtu, no redirect process on their
err_handlers, which doesn't make any sense and even causes performance
problems.

This patchset is to improve the process of redirect and toobig for ip6gre
ip4ip6, ip6ip6 tunnels, as in ipv4 tunnels.

Now ip6gre processes toobig icmp packet by setting gre dev's mtu in
ip6gre_err, which would cause few things not good:

  - It couldn't set mtu with dev_set_mtu due to it's not in user context,
    which causes route cache and idev->cnf.mtu6 not to be updated.

  - It has to update sk dst pmtu in tx path according to gredev->mtu for
    ip6gre, while it updates pmtu again according to lower dst pmtu in
    ip6_tnl_xmit.

  - To change dev->mtu by toobig icmp packet is not a good idea, it should
    only work on pmtu.

This patch is to process toobig by updating the lower dst's pmtu, as later
sk dst pmtu will be updated in ip6_tnl_xmit, the same way as in ip4gre.

Note that gre dev's mtu will not be updated any more, it doesn't make any
sense to change dev's mtu after receiving a toobig packet.

Openvswitch meter action

This patch series is the first attempt to add openvswitch
meter support. We have previously experimented with adding
metering support in nftables. However 1) It was not clear
how to expose a named nftables object cleanly, and 2)
the logic that implements metering is quite small, < 100 lines
of code.

With those two observations, it seems cleaner to add meter
support in the openvswitch module directly.

net: dsa: b53: Support prepended Broadcom tags

This patch series adds support for prepended 4-bytes Broadcom tags that we
already support. This type of tag will typically be used when interfaced to
a SoC like BCM58xx (NorthStar Plus) which supports a Flow Accelerator (WIP).
In that case, we need to support a slightly different tagging format.

The first patch does a bit of re-factoring and passes a port index to
the get_tag_protocol() function since at least two different drivers need
that type of information (mt7530, b53) to support tagging or not.
====================

On BCM58xx devices (Northstar Plus), there is an accelerator attached to

appropriate tagging protocol in that case. We need to change

The way people generally use netlink_dump is that they fill in the skb
as much as possible, breaking when nla_put returns an error. Then, they
get called again and start filling out the next skb, and again, and so
forth. The mechanism at work here is the ability for the iterative
dumping function to detect when the skb is filled up and not fill it
past the brim, waiting for a fresh skb for the rest of the data.

However, if the attributes are small and nicely packed, it is possible
that a dump callback function successfully fills in attributes until the
skb is of size 4080 (libmnl's default page-sized receive buffer size).
The dump function completes, satisfied, and then, if it happens to be
that this is actually the last skb, and no further ones are to be sent,
then netlink_dump will add on the NLMSG_DONE part:

  nlh = nlmsg_put_answer(skb, cb, NLMSG_DONE, sizeof(len), NLM_F_MULTI);

It is very important that netlink_dump does this, of course. However, in
this example, that call to nlmsg_put_answer will fail, because the
previous filling by the dump function did not leave it enough room. And
how could it possibly have done so? All of the nla_put variety of
functions simply check to see if the skb has enough tailroom,
independent of the context it is in.

In order to keep the important assumptions of all netlink dump users, it
is therefore important to give them an skb that has this end part of the
tail already reserved, so that the call to nlmsg_put_answer does not
fail. Otherwise, library authors are forced to find some bizarre sized
receive buffer that has a large modulo relative to the common sizes of
messages received, which is ugly and buggy.

This patch thus saves the NLMSG_DONE for an additional message, for the
case that things are dangerously close to the brim. This requires
keeping track of the errno from ->dump() across calls.
