Using an ascii path to register_net_sysctl as opposed to the slightly
awkward ctl_path allows for much simpler code.
We no longer need to malloc dev_name to keep it alive the length of our
sysctl register instead we can use a small temporary buffer on the
stack.

This makes it clearer which sysctls are relative to your current network
namespace.
This makes it a little less error prone by not exposing sysctls for the
initial network namespace in other namespaces.
This is the same way we handle all of our other network interfaces to
userspace and I can't honestly remember why we didn't do this for
sysctls right from the start.

When the fixed race condition happens:
1. While function neigh_periodic_work scans the neighbor hash table
pointed by field tbl->nht, it unlocks and locks tbl->lock between
buckets in order to call cond_resched.
2. Assume that function neigh_periodic_work calls cond_resched, that is,
the lock tbl->lock is available, and function neigh_hash_grow runs.
3. Once function neigh_hash_grow finishes, and RCU calls
neigh_hash_free_rcu, the original struct neigh_hash_table that function
neigh_periodic_work was using doesn't exist anymore.
4. Once back at neigh_periodic_work, whenever the old struct
neigh_hash_table is accessed, things can go badly.

Add ability to return neighbour proxies list to caller if
it sent full ndmsg structure and has NTF_PROXY flag set.
Before this patch (and before iproute2 patches):
$ ip neigh add proxy 2001::1 dev eth0
$ ip -6 neigh show
$
After it and with applied iproute2 patches:
$ ip neigh add proxy 2001::1 dev eth0
$ ip -6 neigh show
2001::1 dev eth0 proxy
$
Compatibility with old versions of iproute2 is not broken,
kernel checks for incoming structure size and properly
works if old structure is came.
[v2]
* changed comments style.
* removed useless line with continue and curly bracket.
* changed incoming message size check from equal to more or
equal.

[PATCH V5 net-next] neigh: new unresolved queue limits
unres_qlen is the number of frames we are able to queue per unresolved
neighbour. Its default value (3) was never changed and is responsible
for strange drops, especially if IP fragments are used, or multiple
sessions start in parallel. Even a single tcp flow can hit this limit.

Whatever situations make this state legitimate when SMP
also would be legitimate when !SMP and f.e. preemption is
enabled.
This is dubious enough that we should just delete it entirely. If we
want to add debugging for neigh timer races, better more thorough
mechanisms are needed.

Dave Jones reported a lockdep splat triggered by an arp_process() call
from parp_redo().
Commit faa9dcf793be (arp: RCU changes) is the origin of the bug, since
it assumed arp_process() was called under rcu_read_lock(), which is not
true in this particular path.
Instead of adding rcu_read_lock() in parp_redo(), I chose to add it in
neigh_proxy_process() to take care of IPv6 side too.

Now that there is a one-to-one correspondance between neighbour

1) dynamic allocation
2) attachment to dst->hh
3) refcounting

being non-zero, and such initialization is always done with
the neighbour's lock held as a writer.

This never, ever, happens.
Neighbour entries are always tied to one address family, and therefore

And mask the hash function result by simply shifting
down the "->hash_shift" most significant bits.
Currently which bits we use is arbitrary since jhash
produces entropy evenly across the whole hash function
result.
But soon we'll be using universal hashing functions,
and in those cases more entropy exists in the higher
bits than the lower bits, because they use multiplies.

The message size allocated for rtnl ifinfo dumps was limited to
a single page. This is not enough for additional interface info
available with devices that support SR-IOV and caused a bug in
which VF info would not be displayed if more than approximately
40 VFs were created per interface.
Implement a new function pointer for the rtnl_register service that will
calculate the amount of data required for the ifinfo dump and allocate
enough data to satisfy the request.

Add a seqlock in struct neighbour to protect neigh->ha[], and avoid
dirtying neighbour in stress situation (many different flows / dsts)
Dirtying takes place because of read_lock(&n->lock) and n->used writes.
Switching to a seqlock, and writing n->used only on jiffies changes
permits less dirtying.

When a new dst is used to send a frame, neigh_resolve_output() tries to
associate an struct hh_cache to this dst, calling neigh_hh_init() with
the neigh rwlock write locked.
Most of the time, hh_cache is already known and linked into neighbour,
so we find it and increment its refcount.
This patch changes the logic so that we call neigh_hh_init() with
neighbour lock read locked only, so that fast path can be run in
parallel by concurrent cpus.
This brings part of the speedup we got with commit c7d4426a98a5f
(introduce DST_NOCACHE flag) for non cached dsts, even for cached ones,
removing one of the contention point that routers hit on multiqueue
enabled machines.
Further improvements would need to use a seqlock instead of an rwlock to
protect neigh->ha[], to not dirty neigh too often and remove two atomic
ops.

This is the second step for neighbour RCU conversion.
(first was commit d6bf7817 : RCU conversion of neigh hash table)
neigh_lookup() becomes lockless, but still take a reference on found
neighbour. (no more read_lock()/read_unlock() on tbl->lock)
struct neighbour gets an additional rcu_head field and is freed after an
RCU grace period.
Future work would need to eventually not take a reference on neighbour
for temporary dst (DST_NOCACHE), but this would need dst->_neighbour to
use a noref bit like we did for skb->_dst.

[PATCH net-next] net neigh: RCU conversion of neigh hash table
Instead of storing hash_buckets, hash_mask and hash_rnd in "struct
neigh_table", a new structure is defined :
struct neigh_hash_table {
struct neighbour **hash_buckets;
unsigned int hash_mask;
__u32 hash_rnd;
struct rcu_head rcu;
};
And "struct neigh_table" has an RCU protected pointer to such a
neigh_hash_table.
This means the signature of (*hash)() function changed: We need to add a
third parameter with the actual hash_rnd value, since this is not
anymore a neigh_table field.

neigh_delete() and neigh_add() dont need to touch device refcount,
we hold RTNL when calling them, so device cannot disappear under us.

While doing stress tests with IP route cache disabled, and multi queue
devices, I noticed a very high contention on one rwlock used in
neighbour code.
When many cpus are trying to send frames (possibly using a high
performance multiqueue device) to the same neighbour, they fight for the
neigh->lock rwlock in order to call neigh_hh_init(), and fight on
hh->hh_refcnt (a pair of atomic_inc/atomic_dec_and_test())
But we dont need to call neigh_hh_init() for dst that are used only
once. It costs four atomic operations at least, on two contended cache
lines, plus the high contention on neigh->lock rwlock.
Introduce a new dst flag, DST_NOCACHE, that is set when dst was not
inserted in route cache.
With the stress test bench, sending 160000000 frames on one neighbour,
results are :

Change "return (EXPR);" to "return EXPR;"
return is not a function, parentheses are not required.

When configuring DMVPN (GRE + openNHRP) and a GRE remote
address is configured a kernel Oops is observed. The
obserseved Oops is caused by a NULL header_ops pointer
(neigh->dev->header_ops) in neigh_update_hhs() when
void (*update)(struct hh_cache*, const struct net_device*, const unsigned char *)
= neigh->dev->header_ops->cache_update;
is executed. The dev associated with the NULL header_ops is
the GRE interface. This patch guards against the
possibility that header_ops is NULL.
This Oops was first observed in kernel version 2.6.26.8.
