There are four sources of VXLAN switchdev notifier calls:
- the changelink() link operation, which already supports extack,
- ndo_fdb_add() which got extack support in a previous patch,
- FDB updates due to packet forwarding,
- and vxlan_fdb_replay().
Extend vxlan_fdb_switchdev_call_notifiers() to include extack in the
switchdev message that it sends, and propagate the argument upwards to
the callers. For the first two cases, pass in the extack gotten through
the operation. For case #3, pass in NULL.
To cover the last case, extend vxlan_fdb_replay() to take extack
argument, which might come from whatever operation necessitated the FDB
replay.

Drivers may not be able to support certain FDB entries, and an error
code is insufficient to give clear hints as to the reasons of rejection.
In order to make it possible to communicate the rejection reason, extend
ndo_fdb_add() with an extack argument. Adapt the existing
implementations of ndo_fdb_add() to take the parameter (and ignore it).
Pass the extack parameter when invoking ndo_fdb_add() from rtnl_fdb_add().

If a change in remote address prompts a change in a default FDB entry,
that change might be vetoed. If that happens, it would then be necessary
to reinstate the already-removed default FDB entry corresponding to the
previous remote address.
Instead, arrange to have the previous address removed only after the
FDB is successfully vetted.

When an FDB entry is vetoed, it is necessary to unroll the changes that
have already been done. To avoid having to unroll vxlan_config_apply(),
postpone the call after the point where the vetoing takes place. Since
the call can't fail, it doesn't necessitate any cleanups in the
preceding FDB update logic.
Correspondingly, move down the mod_timer() call as well.
References to *dst need to be replaced with references to conf.
Additionally, old_dst and old_age_interval are not necessary anymore,
and therefore drop them.

The changelink operation may cause change in remote address, and

====================
improving TCP behavior on host congestion
This patch set aims to improve how TCP handle local qdisc congestion
by simplifying the previous implementation. Previously when an
skb fails to (re)transmit due to local qdisc congestion or other
resource issue, TCP refrains from setting the skb timestamp or the
recovery starting time.
This design makes determining when to abort a stalling socket more
complicated, as the timestamps of these tranmission attempts were
missing. The stack needs to sort of infer when the original attempt
happens. A by-product is a socket may disregard the system timeout
limit (i.e. sysctl net.ipv4.tcp_retries2 or USER_TIMEOUT option),
and continue to retry until the transmission is successful.
In data-center environment when TCP RTO is small, this could cause
the socket to retry frequently for long during qdisc congestion.
The solution is to first unconditionally timestamp skb and recovery
attempt. Then retry more conservatively (twice a second) on local
qdisc congestion but abort the sockets according to the system limit.

Previously when the sender fails to send (original) data packet or
window probes due to congestion in the local host (e.g. throttling
in qdisc), it'll retry within an RTO or two up to 500ms.
In low-RTT networks such as data-centers, RTO is often far below
the default minimum 200ms. Then local host congestion could trigger
a retry storm pouring gas to the fire. Worse yet, the probe counter
(icsk_probes_out) is not properly updated so the aggressive retry
may exceed the system limit (15 rounds) until the packet finally
slips through.
On such rare events, it's wise to retry more conservatively
(500ms) and update the stats properly to reflect these incidents
and follow the system limit. Note that this is consistent with
the behaviors when a keep-alive probe or RTO retry is dropped
due to local congestion.

Previously we use the next unsent skb's timestamp to determine
when to abort a socket stalling on window probes. This no longer
works as skb timestamp reflects the last instead of the first
transmission.
Instead we can estimate how long the socket has been stalling
with the probe count and the exponential backoff behavior.

This patch addresses a corner issue on timeout behavior of a
passive Fast Open socket. A passive Fast Open server may write
and close the socket when it is re-trying SYN-ACK to complete
the handshake. After the handshake is completely, the server does
not properly stamp the recovery start time (tp->retrans_stamp is
0), and the socket may abort immediately on the very first FIN
timeout, instead of retying until it passes the system or user
specified limit.

Previously TCP socket's retrans_stamp is not set if the
retransmission has failed to send. As a result if a socket is
experiencing local issues to retransmit packets, determining when
to abort a socket is complicated w/o knowning the starting time of
the recovery since retrans_stamp may remain zero.
This complication causes sub-optimal behavior that TCP may use the
latest, instead of the first, retransmission time to compute the
elapsed time of a stalling connection due to local issues. Then TCP
may disrecard TCP retries settings and keep retrying until it finally
succeed: not a good idea when the local host is already strained.
The simple fix is to always timestamp the start of a recovery.
It's worth noting that retrans_stamp is also used to compare echo
timestamp values to detect spurious recovery. This patch does
not break that because retrans_stamp is still later than when the
original packet was sent.

Previously TCP skbs are not always timestamped if the transmission
failed due to memory or other local issues. This makes deciding
when to abort a socket tricky and complicated because the first
unacknowledged skb's timestamp may be 0 on TCP timeout.
The straight-forward fix is to always timestamp skb on every
transmission attempt. Also every skb retransmission needs to be
flagged properly to avoid RTT under-estimation. This can happen
upon receiving an ACK for the original packet and the a previous
(spurious) retransmission has failed.
It's worth noting that this reverts to the old time-stamping
style before commit 8c72c65b426b ("tcp: update skb->skb_mstamp more
carefully") which addresses a problem in computing the elapsed time
of a stalled window-probing socket. The problem will be addressed
differently in the next patches with a simpler approach.

This introduces a new generic SOL_SOCKET-level socket option called
SO_BINDTOIFINDEX. It behaves similar to SO_BINDTODEVICE, but takes a
network interface index as argument, rather than the network interface
name.
User-space often refers to network-interfaces via their index, but has
to temporarily resolve it to a name for a call into SO_BINDTODEVICE.
This might pose problems when the network-device is renamed
asynchronously by other parts of the system. When this happens, the
SO_BINDTODEVICE might either fail, or worse, it might bind to the wrong
device.
In most cases user-space only ever operates on devices which they
either manage themselves, or otherwise have a guarantee that the device
name will not change (e.g., devices that are UP cannot be renamed).
However, particularly in libraries this guarantee is non-obvious and it
would be nice if that race-condition would simply not exist. It would
make it easier for those libraries to operate even in situations where
the device-name might change under the hood.
A real use-case that we recently hit is trying to start the network
stack early in the initrd but make it survive into the real system.
Existing distributions rename network-interfaces during the transition
from initrd into the real system. This, obviously, cannot affect
devices that are up and running (unless you also consider moving them
between network-namespaces). However, the network manager now has to
make sure its management engine for dormant devices will not run in
parallel to these renames. Particularly, when you offload operations
like DHCP into separate processes, these might setup their sockets
early, and thus have to resolve the device-name possibly running into
this race-condition.
By avoiding a call to resolve the device-name, we no longer depend on
the name and can run network setup of dormant devices in parallel to
the transition off the initrd. The SO_BINDTOIFINDEX ioctl plugs this
race.

This fixes recvmsg() to be able to peek across multiple tls records.
Without this patch, the tls's selftests test case
'recv_peek_large_buf_mult_recs' fails. Each tls receive context now
maintains a 'rx_list' to retain incoming skb carrying tls records. If a
tls record needs to be retained e.g. for peek case or for the case when
the buffer passed to recvmsg() has a length smaller than decrypted
record length, then it is added to 'rx_list'. Additionally, records are
added in 'rx_list' if the crypto operation runs in async mode. The
records are dequeued from 'rx_list' after the decrypted data is consumed
by copying into the buffer passed to recvmsg(). In case, the MSG_PEEK
flag is used in recvmsg(), then records are not consumed or removed
from the 'rx_list'.

Function sk_msg_clone has been modified to merge the data from source sg
entry to destination sg entry if the cloned data resides in same page
and is contiguous to the end entry of destination sk_msg. This improves
kernel tls throughput to the tune of 10%.
When the user space tls application calls sendmsg() with MSG_MORE, it leads
to calling sk_msg_clone() with new data being cloned placed continuous to
previously cloned data. Without this optimization, a new SG entry in
the destination sk_msg i.e. rec->msg_plaintext in tls_clone_plaintext_msg()
gets used. This leads to exhaustion of sg entries in rec->msg_plaintext
even before a full 16K of allowable record data is accumulated. Hence we
lose oppurtunity to encrypt and send a full 16K record.
With this patch, the kernel tls can accumulate full 16K of record data
irrespective of the size of data passed in sendmsg() with MSG_MORE.

Some time ago phydev_info() and friends have been added. They allow to
improve and simplify logging.

This workaround attempt helped for some but not all affected users.
With commit 11287b693d03 ("r8169: load Realtek PHY driver module
before r8169") we have a better workaround now, so we an remove
the first attempt.

Jakub Kicinski says:
====================
nfp: flower: improve flower resilience
This series contains mostly changes which improve nfp flower
offload's resilience, but are too large or risky to push into net.
Fred makes the driver waits for flower FW responses uninterruptible,
and a little longer (~40ms).
Pieter adds support for cards with multiple rule memories.
John reworks the MAC offloads. He says:
> When potential tunnel end-point MACs are offloaded, they are assigned an
> index. This index may be associated with a port number meaning that if a
> packet matches an offloaded MAC address on the card, then the ingress
> port for that MAC can also be verified. In the case of shared MACs (e.g.
> on a linux bond) there may be situations where this index maps to only
> one of the ports that share the MAC.
>
> The idea of 'global' MAC indexes are supported that bypass the check on
> ingress port on the NFP. The patchset tracks shared MACs and assigns
> global indexes to these. It also ensures that port based indexes are
> re-applied if a single port becomes the only user of an offloaded MAC.
>
> Other patches in the set aim to tidy code without changing functionality.
> There is also a delete offload message introduced to ensure that MACs no
> longer in use in kernel space are removed from the firmware lookup tables.
