sctp: fix sk_wmem_queued and use it to check for writable space
sctp doesn't count and use asoc sndbuf_used, sk sk_wmem_alloc and
sk_wmem_queued properly, which also causes some problem.
This patchset is to improve it.
====================

sk->sk_wmem_queued is used to count the size of chunks in out queue
while sk->sk_wmem_alloc is for counting the size of chunks has been
sent. sctp is increasing both of them before enqueuing the chunks,
and using sk->sk_wmem_alloc to check for writable space.
However, sk_wmem_alloc is also increased by 1 for the skb allocked
for sending in sctp_packet_transmit() but it will not wake up the
waiters when sk_wmem_alloc is decreased in this skb's destructor.
If msg size is equal to sk_sndbuf and sendmsg is waiting for sndbuf,
the check 'msg_len <= sctp_wspace(asoc)' in sctp_wait_for_sndbuf()
will keep waiting if there's a skb allocked in sctp_packet_transmit,
and later even if this skb got freed, the waiting thread will never
get waked up.
This issue has been there since very beginning, so we change to use
sk->sk_wmem_queued to check for writable space as sk_wmem_queued is
not increased for the skb allocked for sending, also as TCP does.
SOCK_SNDBUF_LOCK check is also removed here as it's for tx buf auto
tuning which I will add in another patch.

Now it's confusing that asoc sndbuf_used is doing memory accounting with
SCTP_DATA_SNDSIZE(chunk) + sizeof(sk_buff) + sizeof(sctp_chunk) while sk
sk_wmem_alloc is doing that with skb->truesize + sizeof(sctp_chunk).
It also causes sctp_prsctp_prune to count with a wrong freed memory when
sndbuf_policy is not set.
To make this right and also keep consistent between asoc sndbuf_used, sk
sk_wmem_alloc and sk_wmem_queued, use skb->truesize + sizeof(sctp_chunk)
for them.

1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-10-17
This series adds support for the new igc driver.
The igc driver is the new client driver supporting the Intel I225
Ethernet Controller, which supports 2.5GbE speeds. The reason for
creating a new client driver, instead of adding support for the new
device in e1000e, is that the silicon behaves more like devices
supported in igb driver. It also did not make sense to add a client
part, to the igb driver which supports only 1GbE server parts.
This initial set of patches is designed for basic support (i.e. link and
pass traffic). Follow-on patch series will add more advanced support
like VLAN, Wake-on-LAN, etc..

mlx5-updates-2018-10-17
========================================================================
From Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>:
This series from Paul adds support to mlx5 e-switch tc offloading of multiple priorities and chains.
This is made of four building blocks (along with few minor driver refactors):
[1] Split FDB fast path prio to multiple namespaces
Currently the FDB name-space contains two priorities, fast path (p0) and slow path (p1).
The slow path contains the per representor SQ send-to-vport TX rule and the match-all
RX miss rule. As a pre-step to support multi-chains and priorities, we split the FDB fast path
to multiple namespaces (sub namespaces), each with multiple priorities.
[2] E-Switch chains and priorities
A chain is a group of priorities. We use the fdb parallel sub-namespaces to implement chains,
and a flow table for each priority in them.
Because these namespaces are parallel and in series to the slow path
fdb, the chains aren't connected to each other (but to the slow path),
and one must use a explicit goto action to reach a different chain.
Flow tables for the priorities are created on demand and destroyed
once not used.
[3] Add a no-append flow insertion mode, use it for TC offloads
Enhance the driver fs core, such that if a no-append flag is set by the caller,
we add a new FTE, instead of appending the actions of the inserted rule when
the same match already exists.
For encap rules, we defer the HW offloading till we have a valid neighbor. This can
result in the packet hitting a lower priority rule in the HW DP. Use the no-append API
to push these packets to the slow path FDB table, so they go to the TC kernel DP as done
before priorities where supported.
[4] Offloading tc priorities and chains for eswitch flows
Using [1], [2] and [3] above we add the support for offloading both chains
and priorities. To get to a new chain, use the tc goto action. We support
a fixed prio range 1-16, and chains 0-3.

tcp_bbr: TCP BBR changes for EDT pacing model
Two small patches for TCP BBR to follow up with Eric's recent work to change
the TCP and fq pacing machinery to an "earliest departure time" (EDT) model:
- The first patch adjusts the TCP BBR logic to work with the new
"earliest departure time" (EDT) pacing model.
- The second patch adjusts the TCP BBR logic to centralize the setting
of gain values, to simplify the code and prepare for future changes.

Adjust TCP BBR for the new departure time pacing model in the recent
commit ab408b6dc7449 ("tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest
departure time model").
With TSQ and pacing at lower layers, there are often several skbs
queued in the pacing layer, and thus there is less data "in the
network" than "in flight".
With departure time pacing at lower layers (e.g. fq or potential
future NICs), the data in the pacing layer now has a pre-scheduled
("baked-in") departure time that cannot be changed, even if the
congestion control algorithm decides to use a new pacing rate.
This means that there can be a non-trivial lag between when BBR makes
a pacing rate change and when the inter-skb pacing delays
change. After a pacing rate change, the number of packets in the
network can gradually evolve to be higher or lower, depending on
whether the sending rate is higher or lower than the delivery
rate. Thus ignoring this lag can cause significant overshoot, with the
flow ending up with too many or too few packets in the network.
This commit changes BBR to adapt its pacing rate based on the amount
of data in the network that it estimates has already been "baked in"
by previous departure time decisions. We estimate the number of our
packets that will be in the network at the earliest departure time
(EDT) for the next skb scheduled as:
in_network_at_edt = inflight_at_edt - (EDT - now) * bw
If we're increasing the amount of data in the network ("in_network"),
then we want to know if the transmit of the EDT skb will push
in_network above the target, so our answer includes
bbr_tso_segs_goal() from the skb departing at EDT. If we're decreasing
in_network, then we want to know if in_network will sink too low just
before the EDT transmit, so our answer does not include the segments
from the skb departing at EDT.
Why do we treat pacing_gain > 1.0 case and pacing_gain < 1.0 case
differently? The in_network curve is a step function: in_network goes
up on transmits, and down on ACKs. To accurately predict when
in_network will go beyond our target value, this will happen on
different events, depending on whether we're concerned about
in_network potentially going too high or too low:
o if pushing in_network up (pacing_gain > 1.0),
then in_network goes above target upon a transmit event
o if pushing in_network down (pacing_gain < 1.0),
then in_network goes below target upon an ACK event
This commit changes the BBR state machine to use this estimated
"packets in network" value to make its decisions.

This is a fix for the port_set_speed method for the Topaz family.
Currently the same method is used as for the Peridot family, but
this is wrong for the SERDES port.
On Topaz, the SERDES port is port 5, not 9 and 10 as in Peridot.
Moreover setting alt_bit on Topaz only makes sense for port 0 (for
(differentiating 100mbps vs 200mbps). The SERDES port does not
support more than 2500mbps, so alt_bit does not make any difference.

====================
mlxsw: Add VxLAN support
This patchset adds support for VxLAN offload in the mlxsw driver.
With regards to the forwarding plane, VxLAN support is composed from two
main parts: Encapsulation and decapsulation.
In the device, NVE encapsulation (and VxLAN in particular) takes place
in the bridge. A packet can be encapsulated using VxLAN either because
it hit an FDB entry that forwards it to the router with the IP of the
remote VTEP or because it was flooded, in which case it is sent to a
list of remote VTEPs (in addition to local ports). In either case, the
VNI is derived from the filtering identifier (FID) the packet was
classified to at ingress and the underlay source IP is taken from a
device global configuration.
VxLAN decapsulation takes place in the underlay router, where packets
that hit a local route that corresponds to the source IP of the local
VTEP are decapsulated and injected to the bridge. The packets are
classified to a FID based on the VNI they came with.
The first six patches export the required APIs in the VxLAN and mlxsw
drivers in order to allow for the introduction of the NVE core in the
next two patches. The NVE core is designed to support a variety of NVE
encapsulations (e.g., VxLAN, NVGRE) and different ASICs, but currently
only VxLAN and Spectrum are supported. Spectrum-2 support will be added
in the future.
The last 10 patches add support for VxLAN decapsulation and
encapsulation and include the addition of the required switchdev APIs in
the VxLAN driver. These APIs allow capable drivers to get a notification
about the addition / deletion of FDB entries to / from the VxLAN's FDB.
Subsequent patchset will add selftests (generic and mlxsw-specific),
data plane learning, FDB extack and vetoing and support for VLAN-aware
bridges (one VNI per VxLAN device model).
v2:
* Implement netif_is_vxlan() using rtnl_link_ops->kind (Jakub & Stephen)

In the device, VxLAN encapsulation takes place in the FDB table where
certain {MAC, FID} entries are programmed with an underlay unicast IP.
MAC addresses that are not programmed in the FDB are flooded to the
relevant local ports and also to a list of underlay unicast IPs that are
programmed using the all zeros MAC address in the VxLAN driver.
One difference between the hardware and software data paths is the fact
that in the software data path there are two FDB lookups prior to the
encapsulation of the packet. First in the bridge's FDB table using {MAC,
VID} and another in the VxLAN's FDB table using {MAC, VNI}.
Therefore, when a new VxLAN FDB entry is notified, it is only programmed
to the device if there is a corresponding entry in the bridge's FDB
table. Similarly, when a new bridge FDB entry pointing to the VxLAN
device is notified, it is only programmed to the device if there is a
corresponding entry in the VxLAN's FDB table.
Note that the above scheme will result in a discrepancy between both
data paths if only one FDB table is populated in the software data path.
For example, if only the bridge's FDB is populated with an entry
pointing to a VxLAN device, then a packet hitting the entry will only be
flooded by the kernel to remote VTEPs whereas the device will also flood
the packets to other local ports member in the VLAN.

Enslavement of VxLAN devices to offloaded bridges was never forbidden by
mlxsw, but this patch makes sure the required configuration is performed
in order to allow VxLAN encapsulation and decapsulation to take place in
the device.
The patch handles both the case where a VxLAN device is enslaved to an
already offloaded bridge and the case where the first mlxsw port is
enslaved to a bridge that already has VxLAN device configured.
Invalid configurations are sanitized and an error string is returned via
extack.
Since encapsulation and decapsulation do not occur when the VxLAN device
is down, the driver makes sure to enable / disable these functionalities
based on NETDEV_PRE_UP and NETDEV_DOWN events.
Note that NETDEV_PRE_UP is used in favor of NETDEV_UP, as the former
allows to veto the operation, if necessary.

Currently, an FDB entry only ceases being offloaded when it is deleted.
This changes with VxLAN encapsulation.
Devices capable of performing VxLAN encapsulation usually have only one
FDB table, unlike the software data path which has two - one in the
bridge driver and another in the VxLAN driver.
Therefore, bridge FDB entries pointing to a VxLAN device are only
offloaded if there is a corresponding entry in the VxLAN FDB.
Allow clearing the offload indication in case the corresponding entry
was deleted from the VxLAN FDB.

When notifications are sent about FDB activity, and an FDB entry with
several remotes is removed, the notification is sent only for the first
destination. That makes it impossible to distinguish between the case
where only this first remote is removed, and the one where the FDB entry
is removed as a whole.
Therefore send one notification for each remote of a removed FDB entry.

Offloaded bridge FDB entries are marked with NTF_OFFLOADED. Implement a
similar mechanism for VXLAN, where a given remote destination can be
marked as offloaded.
To that end, introduce a new event, SWITCHDEV_VXLAN_FDB_OFFLOADED,
through which the marking is communicated to the vxlan driver. To
identify which RDST should be marked as offloaded, an
switchdev_notifier_vxlan_fdb_info is passed to the listeners. The
"offloaded" flag in that object determines whether the offloaded mark
should be set or cleared.
When sending offloaded FDB entries over netlink, mark them with
NTF_OFFLOADED.

A switchdev-capable driver that is aware of VXLAN may need to query
VXLAN FDB. In the particular case of mlxsw, this functionality is
limited to querying UC FDBs. Those being easier to deal with than the
general case of RDST chain traversal, introduce an interface to query
specifically UC FDBs: vxlan_fdb_find_uc().
