RFC 2863 says:
The lowerLayerDown state is also a refinement on the down state.
This new state indicates that this interface runs "on top of" one or
more other interfaces (see ifStackTable) and that this interface is
down specifically because one or more of these lower-layer interfaces
are down.
DSA interfaces are virtual network devices, stacked on top of the DSA
master, but they have a physical MAC, with a PHY that reports a real
link status.
But since DSA (perhaps improperly) uses an iflink to describe the
relationship to its master since commit c084080151e1 ("dsa: set ->iflink
on slave interfaces to the ifindex of the parent"), default_operstate()
will misinterpret this to mean that every time the carrier of a DSA
interface is not ok, it is because of the master being not ok.
In fact, since commit c0a8a9c27493 ("net: dsa: automatically bring user
ports down when master goes down"), DSA cannot even in theory be in the
lowerLayerDown state, because it just calls dev_close_many(), thereby
going down, when the master goes down.
We could revert the commit that creates an iflink between a DSA user
port and its master, especially since now we have an alternative
IFLA_DSA_MASTER which has less side effects. But there may be tooling in
use which relies on the iflink, which has existed since 2009.
We could also probably do something local within DSA to overwrite what
rfc2863_policy() did, in a way similar to hsr_set_operstate(), but this
seems like a hack.
What seems appropriate is to follow the iflink, and check the carrier
status of that interface as well. If that's down too, yes, keep
reporting lowerLayerDown, otherwise just down.

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic
reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn
but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively
recent and should be the default for new code.
Rename:
dev_hold_track() -> netdev_hold()
dev_put_track() -> netdev_put()
dev_replace_track() -> netdev_ref_replace()

There's a number of functions and static variables used
under net/core/ but not from the outside. We currently
dump most of them into netdevice.h. That bad for many
reasons:
- netdevice.h is very cluttered, hard to figure out
what the APIs are;
- netdevice.h is very long;
- we have to touch netdevice.h more which causes expensive
incremental builds.
Create a header under net/core/ and move some declarations.
The new header is also a bit of a catch-all but that's
fine, if we create more specific headers people will
likely over-think where their declaration fit best.
And end up putting them in netdevice.h, again.
More work should be done on splitting netdevice.h into more
targeted headers, but that'd be more time consuming so small
steps.

We are still chasing some syzbot reports where we think a rogue dev_put()
is called with no corresponding prior dev_hold().
Unfortunately it eats a reference on dev->dev_refcnt taken by innocent
dev_hold_track(), meaning that the refcount saturation splat comes
too late to be useful.
Make sure that 'not tracked' dev_put() and dev_hold() better use
CONFIG_NET_DEV_REFCNT_TRACKER=y debug infrastructure:
Prior patch in the series allowed ref_tracker_alloc() and ref_tracker_free()
to be called with a NULL @trackerp parameter, and to use a separate refcount
only to detect too many put() even in the following case:
dev_hold_track(dev, tracker_1, GFP_ATOMIC);
dev_hold(dev);
dev_put(dev);
dev_put(dev); // Should complain loudly here.
dev_put_track(dev, tracker_1); // instead of here
Add clarification about netdev_tracker_alloc() role.
v2: I replaced the dev_put() in linkwatch_do_dev()
with __dev_put() because callers called netdev_tracker_free().

Apparently a concurrent linkwatch_add_event() could
run while we are in __linkwatch_run_queue().
We need to free dev->linkwatch_dev_tracker tracker
under lweventlist_lock protection to avoid this race.

The writer acquires dev_base_lock with disabled bottom halves.
The reader can acquire dev_base_lock without disabling bottom halves
because there is no writer in softirq context.
On PREEMPT_RT the softirqs are preemptible and local_bh_disable() acts
as a lock to ensure that resources, that are protected by disabling
bottom halves, remain protected.
This leads to a circular locking dependency if the lock acquired with
disabled bottom halves (as in write_lock_bh()) and somewhere else with
enabled bottom halves (as by read_lock() in netstat_show()) followed by
disabling bottom halves (cxgb_get_stats() -> t4_wr_mbox_meat_timeout()
-> spin_lock_bh()). This is the reverse locking order.
All read_lock() invocation are from sysfs callback which are not invoked
from softirq context. Therefore there is no need to disable bottom
halves while acquiring a write lock.
Acquire the write lock of dev_base_lock without disabling bottom halves.

After migrating my laptop from 4.19-LTS to 5.4-LTS a while ago I noticed
that my Ethernet port to which a bond and a VLAN interface are attached
appeared to remain up after resuming from suspend with the cable unplugged
(and that problem still persists with 5.10-LTS).
It happens that the following happens:
- the network driver (e1000e here) prepares to suspend, calls e1000e_down()
which calls netif_carrier_off() to signal that the link is going down.
- netif_carrier_off() adds a link_watch event to the list of events for
this device
- the device is completely stopped.
- the machine suspends
- the cable is unplugged and the machine brought to another location
- the machine is resumed
- the queued linkwatch events are processed for the device
- the device doesn't yet have the __LINK_STATE_PRESENT bit and its events
are silently dropped
- the device is resumed with its link down
- the upper VLAN and bond interfaces are never notified that the link had
been turned down and remain up
- the only way to provoke a change is to physically connect the machine
to a port and possibly unplug it.
The state after resume looks like this:
$ ip -br li | egrep 'bond|eth'
bond0 UP e8:6a:64:64:64:64 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,MASTER,UP,LOWER_UP>
eth0 DOWN e8:6a:64:64:64:64 <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP>
eth0.2@eth0 UP e8:6a:64:64:64:64 <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,SLAVE,UP,LOWER_UP>
Placing an explicit call to netdev_state_change() either in the suspend
or the resume code in the NIC driver worked around this but the solution
is not satisfying.
The issue in fact really is in link_watch that loses events while it
ought not to. It happens that the test for the device being present was
added by commit 124eee3f6955 ("net: linkwatch: add check for netdevice
being present to linkwatch_do_dev") in 4.20 to avoid an access to
devices that are not present.
Instead of dropping events, this patch proceeds slightly differently by
postponing their handling so that they happen after the device is fully
resumed.

When user has configured a large number of virtual netdev, such
as 4K vlans, the carrier on/off operation of the real netdev
will also cause it's virtual netdev's link state to be processed
in linkwatch. Currently, the processing is done in a work queue,
which may cause rtnl locking starvation problem and worker
starvation problem for other work queue, such as irqfd_inject wq.
This patch releases the cpu when link watch worker has processed
a fixed number of netdev' link watch event, and schedule the
work queue again when there is still link watch event remaining.

When bringing down the netdevice (incl. detaching it) and calling
netif_carrier_off directly or indirectly the latter triggers an
asynchronous linkwatch event.
This linkwatch event eventually may fail to access chip registers in
the ndo_get_stats/ndo_get_stats64 callback because the device isn't
accessible any longer, see call trace in [0].
To prevent this scenario don't check for IFF_UP only, but also make
sure that the netdevice is present.

It takes 1sec for bond link down notification to hit user-space
when all slaves of the bond go down. 1sec is too long for
protocol daemons in user-space relying on bond notification
to recover (eg: multichassis lag implementations in user-space).
Since the link event code already marks team device port link events
as urgent, this patch moves the code to cover all lag ports and master.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.
2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.
3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.
4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.
5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.
6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.
7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
Borkmann.
8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.
9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very
many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are
a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
allocator c) less waste of space.
From Eric Dumazet.
11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.
12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
From Stephen Hemminger.
13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.
Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated
asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state
reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is
on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support
carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN.
For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the
carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the
device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a
unregistered device, and commit b473001 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch
events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But
this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier
detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN.
The same issue exists with the dormant state.
The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of
the device, is:
rtnl_lock();
rc = register_netdevice(dev);
if (rc)
goto out_unlock;
netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */
rtnl_unlock();
but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many
drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the
device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of
linkwatch.
Commit 22604c8 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted
to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was
reverted as it could lead to deadlock.
This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time
only.

Now that mod_delayed_work() is safe to call from IRQ handlers,
__cancel_delayed_work() followed by queue_delayed_work() can be
replaced with mod_delayed_work().
Most conversions are straight-forward except for the following.
* net/core/link_watch.c: linkwatch_schedule_work() was doing a quite
elaborate dancing around its delayed_work. Collapse it such that
linkwatch_work is queued for immediate execution if LW_URGENT and
existing timer is kept otherwise.

There is a time-lag of IFF_RUNNING flag consistency between vlan and
real devices when the real devices are in problem such as link or cable
broken.
This leads to a degradation of Availability such as a delay of failover
in HA systems using vlan since the detection of the problem at real
device is delayed.
We can avoid the linkwatch delay (~1 sec) for devices linked to another
ones, since delay is already done for the realdev.

As reported by Ben Greer and Froncois Romieu. The code path in
the netif_carrier code leads it to try and disable
a late workqueue to reenable it immediately
netif_carrier_on
-> linkwatch_fire_event
-> linkwatch_schedule_work
-> cancel_delayed_work
-> del_timer_sync
If __cancel_delayed_work is used instead then there is no
problem of waiting for running linkwatch_event.
There is a race between linkwatch_event running re-scheduling
but it is harmless to schedule an extra scan of the linkwatch queue.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Thanks guys, here an updated version then, before linkwatch surgery ?
In this version, I force the event to be sent synchronously.
[PATCH net-next-2.6] linkwatch: linkwatch_forget_dev() to speedup device dismantle
time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105
real 0m0.266s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.001s
real 0m0.770s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
real 0m1.022s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
One problem of current schem in vlan dismantle phase is the
holding of device done by following chain :
vlan_dev_stop() ->
netif_carrier_off(dev) ->
linkwatch_fire_event(dev) ->
dev_hold() ...
And __linkwatch_run_queue() runs up to one second later...
A generic fix to this problem is to add a linkwatch_forget_dev() method
to unlink the device from the list of watched devices.
dev->link_watch_next becomes dev->link_watch_list (and use a bit more memory),
to be able to unlink device in O(1).
After patch :
time ip link del eth3.103 ; time ip link del eth3.104 ; time ip link del eth3.105
real 0m0.024s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s

Urgent events may be delayed if we already have a non-urgent event
queued for that device. This patch changes this by making sure that
an urgent event is always looked at immediately.
I've replaced the LW_RUNNING flag by LW_URGENT since whether work
is scheduled is already kept track by the work queue system.
The only complication is that we have to provide some exclusion for
the setting linkwatch_nextevent which is available in the actual
work function.

When the jiffies wrap around or when the system boots up for the first

update linkwatch_nextevent when only urgent events are processed.

wrap-around occurs.

Currently all link carrier events are delayed by up to a second
before they're processed to prevent link storms. This causes
unnecessary packet loss during that interval.
In fact, we can achieve the same effect in preventing storms by
only delaying down events and unnecssary up events. The latter
is defined as up events when we're already up.

These days the link watch mechanism is an integral part of the
network subsystem as it manages the carrier status. So it now
makes sense to allocate some memory for it in net_device rather
than allocating it on demand.
In fact, this is necessary because we can't tolerate a memory
allocation failure since that means we'd have to potentially
throw a link up event away.
It also simplifies the code greatly.
In doing so I discovered a subtle race condition in the use
of singleevent. This race condition still exists (and is
somewhat magnified) without singleevent but it's now plugged
thanks to an smp_mb__before_clear_bit.

Pass the work_struct pointer to the work function rather than context data.
The work function can use container_of() to work out the data.
For the cases where the container of the work_struct may go away the moment the
pending bit is cleared, it is made possible to defer the release of the
structure by deferring the clearing of the pending bit.
To make this work, an extra flag is introduced into the management side of the
work_struct. This governs auto-release of the structure upon execution.
Ordinarily, the work queue executor would release the work_struct for further
scheduling or deallocation by clearing the pending bit prior to jumping to the
work function. This means that, unless the driver makes some guarantee itself
that the work_struct won't go away, the work function may not access anything
else in the work_struct or its container lest they be deallocated.. This is a
problem if the auxiliary data is taken away (as done by the last patch).
However, if the pending bit is *not* cleared before jumping to the work
function, then the work function *may* access the work_struct and its container
with no problems. But then the work function must itself release the
work_struct by calling work_release().
In most cases, automatic release is fine, so this is the default. Special
initiators exist for the non-auto-release case (ending in _NAR).

Separate delayable work items from non-delayable work items be splitting them
into a separate structure (delayed_work), which incorporates a work_struct and
the timer_list removed from work_struct.
The work_struct struct is huge, and this limits it's usefulness. On a 64-bit
architecture it's nearly 100 bytes in size. This reduces that by half for the
non-delayable type of event.

The test used in the linkwatch does not handle wrap-arounds correctly.
Since the intention of the code is to eliminate bursts of messages we
can afford to delay things up to a second. Using that fact we can
easily handle wrap-arounds by making sure that we don't delay things
by more than one second.
This is based on diagnosis and a patch by Stefan Rompf.

this patch adds a dormant flag to network devices, RFC2863 operstate derived
from these flags and possibility for userspace interaction. It allows drivers
to signal that a device is unusable for user traffic without disabling
queueing (and therefore the possibility for protocol establishment traffic to
flow) and a userspace supplicant (WPA, 802.1X) to mark a device unusable
without changes to the driver.
It is the result of our long discussion. However I must admit that it
represents what Jamal and I agreed on with compromises towards Krzysztof, but
Thomas and Krzysztof still disagree with some parts. Anyway I think it should
be applied.

Some network drivers call netif_stop_queue() when detecting loss of
carrier. This leads to packets being queued up at the qdisc level for
an unbound period of time. In order to prevent this effect, the core
networking stack will now cease to queue packets for any device, that
is operationally down (i.e. the queue is flushed and disabled).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
