We can drop the use of bond->lock for mutual exclusion in
bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate and use RTNL in the sysfs store function
instead. This way we'll prevent races with mode change and interface
up/down as well as simplify update_lacp_rate by removing the check for
port->slave because it'll always be initialized (done while enslaving
with RTNL). This change will also help in the future removal of reader
bond->lock from bond_enslave.

This patch does the initial bonding conversion to RCU. After it the
following modes are protected by RCU alone: roundrobin, active-backup,
broadcast and xor. Modes ALB/TLB and 3ad still acquire bond->lock for
reading, and will be dealt with later. curr_active_slave needs to be
dereferenced via rcu in the converted modes because the only thing
protecting the slave after this patch is rcu_read_lock, so we need the
proper barrier for weakly ordered archs and to make sure we don't have
stale pointer. It's not tagged with __rcu yet because there's still work
to be done to remove the curr_slave_lock, so sparse will complain when
rcu_assign_pointer and rcu_dereference are used, but the alternative to use
rcu_dereference_protected would've created much bigger code churn which is
more difficult to test and review. That will be converted in time.
1. Active-backup mode
1.1 Perf recording while doing iperf -P 4
- old bonding: iperf spent 0.55% in bonding, system spent 0.29% CPU
in bonding
- new bonding: iperf spent 0.29% in bonding, system spent 0.15% CPU
in bonding
1.2. Bandwidth measurements
- old bonding: 16.1 gbps consistently
- new bonding: 17.5 gbps consistently
2. Round-robin mode
2.1 Perf recording while doing iperf -P 4
- old bonding: iperf spent 0.51% in bonding, system spent 0.24% CPU
in bonding
- new bonding: iperf spent 0.16% in bonding, system spent 0.11% CPU
in bonding
2.2 Bandwidth measurements
- old bonding: 8 gbps (variable due to packet reorderings)
- new bonding: 10 gbps (variable due to packet reorderings)
Of course the latency has improved in all converted modes, and moreover
while
doing enslave/release (since it doesn't affect tx anymore).
Also I've stress tested all modes doing enslave/release in a loop while
transmitting traffic.

This patch aims to remove struct bonding's first_slave and struct
slave's next and prev pointers, and replace them with the standard Linux
list API. The old macros are converted to list API as well and some new
primitives are available now. The checks if there're slaves that used
slave_cnt have been replaced by the list_empty macro.
Also a few small style fixes, changing longest -> shortest line in local
variable declarations, leaving an empty line before return and removing
unnecessary brackets.
This is the first step to gradual RCU conversion.

When bond_3ad_get_active_agg_info() is used in all show_ad_ functions
it is not protected against slave manipulation and since it walks over
the slaves and uses them, this can easily result in NULL pointer
dereference or use of freed memory. Both the new wrapper and the
internal function are exported to the bonding as they're needed in
different places.

The 3ad machine state spinlock can be used before it is inititialized
while doing bond_enslave() (and the port is being initialized) since
port->slave is set before the lock is prepared, thus causing soft
lock-ups and a multitude of other nasty bugs.

bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate()
port->slave can be NULL since it's being initialized in bond_enslave
thus dereferencing a NULL pointer in bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate()
Also fix a minor bug, which could cause a port not to have
AD_STATE_LACP_TIMEOUT since there's no sync between
bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate() and bond_3ad_bind_slave(), by changing
the read_lock to a write_lock_bh in bond_3ad_update_lacp_rate().

Cloning all packets in input path have a significant cost.
Use skb_header_pointer()/skb_copy_bits() instead of pskb_may_pull() so
that recv_probe handlers (bond_3ad_lacpdu_recv / bond_arp_rcv /
rlb_arp_recv ) dont touch input skb.

Since commit 3aba891d, bonding processes LACP frames (802.3ad
mode) with bond_handle_frame(). Currently a copy of the skb is
made and the original is left to be processed by other
rx_handlers and the rest of the network stack by returning
RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER. As there is no protocol handler for
PKT_TYPE_LACPDU, the frame is dropped and dev->rx_dropped
increased.
Fix this by making bond_handle_frame() return RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED
if bonding has processed the LACP frame.

This patch resolves two sets of race conditions.
Mitsuo Hayasaka <mitsuo.hayasaka.hu@hitachi.com> reported the
first, as follows:
The bond_close() calls cancel_delayed_work() to cancel delayed works.
It, however, cannot cancel works that were already queued in workqueue.
The bond_open() initializes work->data, and proccess_one_work() refers
get_work_cwq(work)->wq->flags. The get_work_cwq() returns NULL when
work->data has been initialized. Thus, a panic occurs.
He included a patch that converted the cancel_delayed_work calls
in bond_close to flush_delayed_work_sync, which eliminated the above
problem.
His patch is incorporated, at least in principle, into this
patch. In this patch, we use cancel_delayed_work_sync in place of
flush_delayed_work_sync, and also convert bond_uninit in addition to
bond_close.
This conversion to _sync, however, opens new races between
bond_close and three periodically executing workqueue functions:
bond_mii_monitor, bond_alb_monitor and bond_activebackup_arp_mon.
The race occurs because bond_close and bond_uninit are always
called with RTNL held, and these workqueue functions may acquire RTNL to
perform failover-related activities. If bond_close or bond_uninit is
waiting in cancel_delayed_work_sync, deadlock occurs.
These deadlocks are resolved by having the workqueue functions
acquire RTNL conditionally. If the rtnl_trylock() fails, the functions
reschedule and return immediately. For the cases that are attempting to
perform link failover, a delay of 1 is used; for the other cases, the
normal interval is used (as those activities are not as time critical).
Additionally, the bond_mii_monitor function now stores the delay
in a variable (mimicing the structure of activebackup_arp_mon).
Lastly, all of the above renders the kill_timers sentinel moot,
and therefore it has been removed.

The port shouldn't be enabled unless its current MUX
state is DISTRIBUTING which is correctly handled by
ad_mux_machine(), otherwise the packet sent can be
lost because the other end may not be ready.
The issue happens on every port initialization, but
as the ports are expected to move quickly to DISTRIBUTING,
it doesn't cause much problem. However, it does cause
constant packet loss if the other peer has the port
configured to stay in STANDBY (i.e. SYNC set to OFF).

During a test where a pair of bonding interfaces using ARP monitoring
were both brought up and torn down (with an rmmod) repeatedly, a panic
in the timer code was noticed. I tracked this down and determined that
any of the bonding functions that ran as workqueue handlers and requeued
more work might not properly exit when the module was removed.
There was a flag protected by the bond lock called kill_timers that is
set when the interface goes down or the module is removed, but many of
the functions that monitor link status now unlock the bond lock to take
rtnl first. There is a chance that another CPU running the rmmod could
get the lock and set kill_timers after the first check has passed.
This patch does not allow any function to queue work that will make
itself run unless kill_timers is not set. I also noticed while doing
this work that bond_resend_igmp_join_requests did not have a check for
kill_timers, so I added the needed call there as well.

This adds support for a configuring the minimum number of links that
must be active before asserting carrier. It is similar to the Cisco
EtherChannel min-links feature. This allows setting the minimum number
of member ports that must be up (link-up state) before marking the
bond device as up (carrier on). This is useful for situations where
higher level services such as clustering want to ensure a minimum
number of low bandwidth links are active before switchover.

These is also a bug, that if you modify lacp_rate via sysfs,
and add new slaves in bonding, new slaves won't use the latest lacp_rate,
since ad_bond_info->lacp_fast is initialized only once,
in bond_3ad_initialize().
Since both struct bond_params and ad_bond_info have lacp_fast,
they are duplicate and need extra synchronization.
bond_3ad_bind_slave() can use bond_params->lacp_fast to initialize port.
So we can just remove lacp_fast from struct ad_bond_info.

Since now when bonding uses rx_handler, all traffic going into bond
device goes thru bond_handle_frame. So there's no need to go back into
bonding code later via ptype handlers. This patch converts
original ptype handlers into "bonding receive probes". These functions
are called from bond_handle_frame and they are registered per-mode.
Note that vlan packets are also handled because they are always untagged
thanks to vlan_untag()
Note that this also allows arpmon for eth-bond-bridge-vlan topology.

The slave member of struct aggregator does not necessarily point
to a slave which is part of the aggregator. It points to the
slave structure containing the aggregator structure, while
completely different slaves (or no slaves at all) may be part of
the aggregator.
The agg_device_up() function wrongly uses agg->slave to find the state
of the aggregator. Use agg->lag_ports->slave instead. The bug has
been introduced by commit 4cd6fe1c6483cde93e2ec91f58b7af9c9eea51ad

Changes since v1:
* Clarify an unclear comment
* Move a (possible) name change to a separate patch
The ad_rx_machine, ad_periodic_machine and ad_port_selection_logic
functions all inspect and alter common fields within the port structure.
Previous to this patch, only the ad_rx_machines were mutexed, and the
periodic and port_selection could run unmutexed against an ad_rx_machine
trigged by an arriving LACPDU.
This patch remedies the situation by protecting all the state machines
from concurrency. This is accomplished by locking around all the state
machines for a given port, which are executed at regular intervals; and
the ad_rx_machine when handling an incoming LACPDU.

Resulted from bonding driver registering packet handlers via dev_add_pack and
then trying to call pskb_may_pull. If another packet handler (like for AF_PACKET
sockets) gets called first, the delivered skb will have a user count > 1, which
causes pskb_may_pull to BUG halt when it does its skb_shared check. Fix this by
calling skb_share_check prior to the may_pull call sites in the bonding driver
to clone the skb when needed. Tested by myself and the reported successfully.

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

It was recently brought to my attention that 802.3ad mode bonds would no
longer form when using some network hardware after a driver update.
After snooping around I realized that the particular hardware was using
page-based skbs and found that skb->data did not contain a valid LACPDU
as it was not stored there. That explained the inability to form an
802.3ad-based bond. For balance-alb mode bonds this was also an issue
as ARPs would not be properly processed.
This patch fixes the issue in my tests and should be applied to 2.6.36
and as far back as anyone cares to add it to stable.
Thanks to Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com> and Jesse
Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> for the suggestions on this one.

A few lines earlier we assume that best->slave could be either null or non-null so
we should check it here as well.

The language of 802.3ad 43.4.9 requires the "recordPDU" function
to, in part, compare the Partner parameter values in a received LACPDU
to the stored Actor values. If those match, then the Partner's
synchronization state is set to true.
The current 802.3ad implementation is performing these steps out
of order; first, the synchronization check is done, then the paramters are
checked to see if they match (the synch check being done against a match
check of a prior LACPDU). This causes delays in establishing aggregators
in some circumstances.
This patch modifies the 802.3ad code to call __choose_matched,
the function that does the "match" comparisions, as the first step of
__record_pdu, instead of immediately afterwards. This new behavior is
in compliance with the language of the standard.
Some additional commentary relating to code vs. standard is also
added.
Reported by Martin Patterson <martin@gear6.com> who also supplied
the logic of the fix and verified the patch.

Now that the bonding device is no longer used in determining the device to
which to send packets, it can be dropped from the argument list of the various
xmit_hash_policy calls.

AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT and AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY have the same value, but
AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY better reflects the intended semantics.
[ J adds: AD_STATE_LACP_ACTIVITY is a value defined by the standard, and
should be set here in accordance with 802.3ad 43.4.12; AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT
is a constant specific to the Linux 802.3ad implementation that happens
to have the same value ]
The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@@
struct port_params p;
@@
* p.port_state |= AD_SHORT_TIMEOUT
// </smpl>

This patch converts the remaining occurences of raw return values to their
symbolic counterparts in ndo_start_xmit() functions that were missed by the
previous automatic conversion.
Additionally code that assumed the symbolic value of NETDEV_TX_OK to be zero
is changed to explicitly use NETDEV_TX_OK.

One of the purposes of bonding is to allow for redundant links, and failover
correctly if the cable is pulled. If all the members of a bonded device have
no carrier present, the bonded device itself needs to report no carrier present
to user space so management tools (like routing daemons) can respond.
Bonding in 802.3ad mode does not work correctly for this because it incorrectly
chooses a link that is down as a possible aggregator.
