If the driver receives a TX CQE with status as 0x1 or 0x9 or 0xb,
the completion indexes should not be used. The driver must stop
consuming CQEs from this TXQ/CQ. The TXQ from this point on-wards
to be in a bad state. Driver should destroy and recreate the TXQ.
0x1: LANCER_TX_COMP_LSO_ERR
0x9 LANCER_TX_COMP_SGE_ERR
0xb: LANCER_TX_COMP_PARITY_ERR
Reset the adapter if driver sees this error in TX completion. Also
adding sge error counter in ethtool stats.

====================
net: erspan fixes
The first patch fixes erspan metadata extraction issue from packet
header due to commit d350a823020e ("net: erspan: create erspan metadata
uapi header"). The commit moves the erspan 'version' in
'struct erspan_metadata' in front of 'struct erspan_md2' for later
extensibility, but breaks the existing metadata extraction code due
to extra 4-byte size 'version'. The second patch fixes the case where
tunnel device receives an erspan packet with different tunnel metadata
(ex: version, index, hwid, direction), existing code overwrites the
tunnel device's erspan configuration. The third patch fixes the bpf
tests due to the above patches.

The commit c69de58ba84f ("net: erspan: use bitfield instead of
mask and offset") changes the erspan header to use bitfield, and
commit d350a823020e ("net: erspan: create erspan metadata uapi header")
creates a uapi header file. The above two commit breaks the current
erspan test. This patch fixes it by adapting the above two changes.

The problem is that the htnode is freed before the linked knodes and the
latter will try to access the first at u32_destroy_key() time.
This change addresses the issue using the htnode refcnt to guarantee
the correct free order. While at it also add a RCU annotation,
to keep sparse happy.
v1 -> v2: use rtnl_derefence() instead of RCU read locks
v2 -> v3:
- don't check refcnt in u32_destroy_hnode()
- cleaned-up u32_destroy() implementation
- cleaned-up code comment
v3 -> v4:
- dropped unneeded comment

Support the AFS dynamic root which is a pseudo-volume that doesn't connect
to any server resource, but rather is just a root directory that
dynamically creates mountpoint directories where the name of such a
directory is the name of the cell.
Such a mount can be created thus:
mount -t afs none /afs -o dyn
Dynamic root superblocks aren't shared except by bind mounts and
propagation. Cell root volumes can then be mounted by referring to them by
name, e.g.:
ls /afs/grand.central.org/
ls /afs/.grand.central.org/
The kernel will upcall to consult the DNS if the address wasn't supplied
directly.

Fix server list handling in the following ways:
(1) In afs_alloc_volume(), remove duplicate server list build code. This
was already done by afs_alloc_server_list() which afs_alloc_volume()
previously called. This just results in twice as many VL RPCs.
(2) In afs_deliver_vl_get_entry_by_name_u(), use the number of server
records indicated by ->nServers in the UVLDB record returned by the
VL.GetEntryByNameU RPC call rather than scanning all NMAXNSERVERS
slots. Unused slots may contain garbage.
(3) In afs_alloc_server_list(), don't stop converting a UVLDB record into
a server list just because we can't look up one of the servers. Just
skip that server and go on to the next. If we can't look up any of
the servers then we'll fail at the end.
Without this patch, an attempt to view the umich.edu root cell using
something like "ls /afs/umich.edu" on a dynamic root (future patch) mount
or an autocell mount will result in ENOMEDIUM. The failure is due to kafs
not stopping after nServers'worth of records have been read, but then
trying to access a server with a garbage UUID and getting an error, which
aborts the server list build.

afs_select_fileserver() ends the address cursor it is using in the case in
which we get some sort of network error and run out of addresses to iterate
through, before it jumps to try the next server. This also needs to be
done when the server aborts with some sort of error that means we should
try the next server.
Fix this by:
(1) Move the iterate_address afs_end_cursor() call to the next_server
case.
(2) End the cursor in the failed case.
(3) Make afs_end_cursor() clear the ->begun flag and ->addr pointer in the
address cursor.
(4) Make afs_end_cursor() able to be called on an already cleared cursor.
Without this, something like the following oops may occur:

afs_alloc_volume() needs to release the cell ref it obtained in the case of
an error. Fix this by adding an afs_put_cell() call into the error path.
This can triggered when a lookup for a cell in a dynamic root or an
autocell mount returns an error whilst trying to look up the server (such
as ENOMEDIUM). This results in an assertion failure oops when the module
is unloaded due to outstanding refs on a cell record.

Moving the qrwlock struct definition into a header file introduced
a subtle bug on all little-endian machines, where some files in some
configurations would see the fields in an incorrect order. This was
found by building with an LTO enabled compiler that warns every time we
try to link together files with incompatible data structures.
A second patch changes linux/kconfig.h to always define the symbols,
but this seems to be the root cause of most of the issues, so I'd suggest
we do both.
On a current linux-next kernel, I verified that this header is
responsible for all type mismatches as a result from the endianess
confusion.

The select_idle_sibling() (SIS) rewrite in commit:
10e2f1acd010 ("sched/core: Rewrite and improve select_idle_siblings()")
... replaced a domain iteration with a search that broadly speaking
does a wrapped walk of the scheduler domain sharing a last-level-cache.
While this had a number of improvements, one consequence is that two tasks
that share a waker/wakee relationship push each other around a socket. Even
though two tasks may be active, all cores are evenly used. This is great from
a search perspective and spreads a load across individual cores, but it has
adverse consequences for cpufreq. As each CPU has relatively low utilisation,
cpufreq may decide the utilisation is too low to used a higher P-state and
overall computation throughput suffers.
While individual cpufreq and cpuidle drivers may compensate by artifically
boosting P-state (at c0) or avoiding lower C-states (during idle), it does
not help if hardware-based cpufreq (e.g. HWP) is used.
This patch tracks a recently used CPU based on what CPU a task was running
on when it last was a waker a CPU it was recently using when a task is a
wakee. During SIS, the recently used CPU is used as a target if it's still
allowed by the task and is idle.
The benefit may be non-obvious so consider an example of two tasks
communicating back and forth. Task A may be an application doing IO where
task B is a kworker or kthread like journald. Task A may issue IO, wake
B and B wakes up A on completion. With the existing scheme this may look
like the following (potentially different IDs if SMT is in use but similar
principal applies).
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 2)
A (cpu 2) wake B (wakes on cpu 3)
etc.
A careful reader may wonder why CPU 0 was not idle when B wakes A the
first time and it's simply due to the fact that A can be rescheduled to
another CPU and the pattern is that prev == target when B tries to wakeup A
and the information about CPU 0 has been lost.
With this patch, the pattern is more likely to be:
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
B (cpu 1) wake A (wakes on cpu 0)
A (cpu 0) wake B (wakes on cpu 1)
etc
i.e. two communicating casts are more likely to use just two cores instead
of all available cores sharing a LLC.
The most dramatic speedup was noticed on dbench using the XFS filesystem on
UMA as clients interact heavily with workqueues in that configuration. Note
that a similar speedup is not observed on ext4 as the wakeup pattern
is different:

Hmean 64 1455.57 ( 0.00%) 1434.68 ( -1.44%)
The results can be less dramatic on NUMA where automatic balancing interferes
with the test. It's also known that network benchmarks running on localhost
also benefit quite a bit from this patch (roughly 10% on netperf RR for UDP
and TCP depending on the machine). Hackbench also seens small improvements
(6-11% depending on machine and thread count). The facebook schbench was also
tested but in most cases showed little or no different to wakeup latencies.

wake_affine_idle() prefers to move a task to the current CPU if the
wakeup is due to an interrupt. The expectation is that the interrupt
data is cache hot and relevant to the waking task as well as avoiding
a search. However, there is no way to determine if there was cache hot
data on the previous CPU that may exceed the interrupt data. Furthermore,
round-robin delivery of interrupts can migrate tasks around a socket where
each CPU is under-utilised. This can interact badly with cpufreq which
makes decisions based on per-cpu data. It has been observed on machines
with HWP that p-states are not boosted to their maximum levels even though
the workload is latency and throughput sensitive.
This patch uses the previous CPU for the task if it's idle and cache-affine
with the current CPU even if the current CPU is idle due to the wakup
being related to the interrupt. This reduces migrations at the cost of
the interrupt data not being cache hot when the task wakes.
A variety of workloads were tested on various machines and no adverse
impact was noticed that was outside noise. dbench on ext4 on UMA showed
roughly 10% reduction in the number of CPU migrations and it is a case
where interrupts are frequent for IO competions. In most cases, the
difference in performance is quite small but variability is often
reduced. For example, this is the result for pgbench running on a UMA
machine with different numbers of clients.

When issuing an IPI RT push, where an IPI is sent to each CPU that has more
than one RT task scheduled on it, it references the root domain's rto_mask,
that contains all the CPUs within the root domain that has more than one RT
task in the runable state. The problem is, after the IPIs are initiated, the
rq->lock is released. This means that the root domain that is associated to
the run queue could be freed while the IPIs are going around.
Add a sched_get_rd() and a sched_put_rd() that will increment and decrement
the root domain's ref count respectively. This way when initiating the IPIs,
the scheduler will up the root domain's ref count before releasing the
rq->lock, ensuring that the root domain does not go away until the IPI round
is complete.

When the rto_push_irq_work_func() is called, it looks at the RT overloaded
bitmask in the root domain via the runqueue (rq->rd). The problem is that
during CPU up and down, nothing here stops rq->rd from changing between
taking the rq->rd->rto_lock and releasing it. That means the lock that is
released is not the same lock that was taken.
Instead of using this_rq()->rd to get the root domain, as the irq work is
part of the root domain, we can simply get the root domain from the irq work
that is passed to the routine:
container_of(work, struct root_domain, rto_push_work)
This keeps the root domain consistent.

Fix dst reference count leak in sctp_v4_get_dst() introduced in commit
410f03831 ("sctp: add routing output fallback"):
When walking the address_list, successive ip_route_output_key() calls
may return the same rt->dst with the reference incremented on each call.
The code would not decrement the dst refcount when the dst pointer was
identical from the previous iteration, causing the dst refcnt leak.
Testcase:
ip netns add TEST
ip netns exec TEST ip link set lo up
ip link add dummy0 type dummy
ip link add dummy1 type dummy
ip link add dummy2 type dummy
ip link set dev dummy0 netns TEST
ip link set dev dummy1 netns TEST
ip link set dev dummy2 netns TEST
ip netns exec TEST ip addr add 192.168.1.1/24 dev dummy0
ip netns exec TEST ip link set dummy0 up
ip netns exec TEST ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev dummy1
ip netns exec TEST ip link set dummy1 up
ip netns exec TEST ip addr add 192.168.1.3/24 dev dummy2
ip netns exec TEST ip link set dummy2 up
ip netns exec TEST sctp_test -H 192.168.1.2 -P 20002 -h 192.168.1.1 -p 20000 -s -B 192.168.1.3
ip netns del TEST
In 4.4 and 4.9 kernels this results to:

When going through the bind address list in sctp_v6_get_dst() and
the previously found address is better ('matchlen > bmatchlen'),
the code continues to the next iteration without releasing currently
held destination.
Fix it by releasing 'bdst' before continue to the next iteration, and
instead of introducing one more '!IS_ERR(bdst)' check for dst_release(),
move the already existed one right after ip6_dst_lookup_flow(), i.e. we
shouldn't proceed further if we get an error for the route lookup.

There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:
1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.
x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, and both IRET and SYSEXIT to go
back to user-space. The IRET instruction is core serializing, but not
SYSEXIT.
x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat
code), SYSRETQ, or IRET. Given that SYSRET{L,Q} is not core serializing,
we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.
Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.
