<title>SUNRPC: always free ctxt when freeing deferred request</title>

<id>urn:sha1:948f072ada23e0a504c5e4d7d71d4c83bd0785ec</id>
<content type='text'>
Since the -&gt;xprt_ctxt pointer was added to svc_deferred_req, it has not
been sufficient to use kfree() to free a deferred request.  We may need
to free the ctxt as well.

As freeing the ctxt is all that -&gt;xpo_release_rqst() does, we repurpose
it to explicit do that even when the ctxt is not stored in an rqst.
So we now have -&gt;xpo_release_ctxt() which is given an xprt and a ctxt,
which may have been taken either from an rqst or from a dreq.  The
caller is now responsible for clearing that pointer after the call to
-&gt;xpo_release_ctxt.

We also clear dr-&gt;xprt_ctxt when the ctxt is moved into a new rqst when
revisiting a deferred request.  This ensures there is only one pointer
to the ctxt, so the risk of double freeing in future is reduced.  The
new code in svc_xprt_release which releases both the ctxt and any
rq_deferred depends on this.

<title>SUNRPC: Support TLS handshake in the server-side TCP socket code</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch adds opportunitistic RPC-with-TLS to the Linux in-kernel
NFS server. If the client requests RPC-with-TLS and the user space
handshake agent is running, the server will set up a TLS session.

There are no policy settings yet. For example, the server cannot
yet require the use of RPC-with-TLS to access its data.

There's no need for the cost of this extra virtual function call
during every RPC transaction: the RQ_SECURE bit can be set properly
in -&gt;xpo_recvfrom() instead.

Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
 "The sprinkling of SPI drivers is because we added a new one and Mark
  sent us a SPI driver interface conversion pull request.

  Core
  ----

   - Introduce XDP multi-buffer support, allowing the use of XDP with
     jumbo frame MTUs and combination with Rx coalescing offloads (LRO).

   - Speed up netns dismantling (5x) and lower the memory cost a little.
     Remove unnecessary per-netns sockets. Scope some lists to a netns.
     Cut down RCU syncing. Use batch methods. Allow netdev registration
     to complete out of order.

   - Support distinguishing timestamp types (ingress vs egress) and
     maintaining them across packet scrubbing points (e.g. redirect).

   - Continue the work of annotating packet drop reasons throughout the
     stack.

   - Switch netdev error counters from an atomic to dynamically
     allocated per-CPU counters.

   - Rework a few preempt_disable(), local_irq_save() and busy waiting
     sections problematic on PREEMPT_RT.

   - Extend the ref_tracker to allow catching use-after-free bugs.

  BPF
  ---

   - Introduce "packing allocator" for BPF JIT images. JITed code is
     marked read only, and used to be allocated at page granularity.
     Custom allocator allows for more efficient memory use, lower iTLB
     pressure and prevents identity mapping huge pages from getting
     split.

   - Make use of BTF type annotations (e.g. __user, __percpu) to enforce
     the correct probe read access method, add appropriate helpers.

   - Convert the BPF preload to use light skeleton and drop the
     user-mode-driver dependency.

   - Allow XDP BPF_PROG_RUN test infra to send real packets, enabling
     its use as a packet generator.

   - Allow local storage memory to be allocated with GFP_KERNEL if
     called from a hook allowed to sleep.

   - Introduce fprobe (multi kprobe) to speed up mass attachment (arch
     bits to come later).

   - Add unstable conntrack lookup helpers for BPF by using the BPF
     kfunc infra.

   - Allow cgroup BPF progs to return custom errors to user space.

   - Add support for AF_UNIX iterator batching.

   - Allow iterator programs to use sleepable helpers.

   - Support JIT of add, and, or, xor and xchg atomic ops on arm64.

   - Add BTFGen support to bpftool which allows to use CO-RE in kernels
     without BTF info.

   - Large number of libbpf API improvements, cleanups and deprecations.

  Protocols
  ---------

   - Micro-optimize UDPv6 Tx, gaining up to 5% in test on dummy netdev.

   - Adjust TSO packet sizes based on min_rtt, allowing very low latency
     links (data centers) to always send full-sized TSO super-frames.

   - Make IPv6 flow label changes (AKA hash rethink) more configurable,
     via sysctl and setsockopt. Distinguish between server and client
     behavior.

   - VxLAN support to "collect metadata" devices to terminate only
     configured VNIs. This is similar to VLAN filtering in the bridge.

   - Support inserting IPv6 IOAM information to a fraction of frames.

   - Add protocol attribute to IP addresses to allow identifying where
     given address comes from (kernel-generated, DHCP etc.)

   - Support setting socket and IPv6 options via cmsg on ping6 sockets.

   - Reject mis-use of ECN bits in IP headers as part of DSCP/TOS.
     Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib-rules.

   - Add support for locked bridge ports (for 802.1X).

   - tun: support NAPI for packets received from batched XDP buffs,
     doubling the performance in some scenarios.

   - IPv6 extension header handling in Open vSwitch.

   - Support IPv6 control message load balancing in bonding, prevent
     neighbor solicitation and advertisement from using the wrong port.
     Support NS/NA monitor selection similar to existing ARP monitor.

   - SMC
      - improve performance with TCP_CORK and sendfile()
      - support auto-corking
      - support TCP_NODELAY

   - MCTP (Management Component Transport Protocol)
      - add user space tag control interface
      - I2C binding driver (as specified by DMTF DSP0237)

   - Multi-BSSID beacon handling in AP mode for WiFi.

   - Bluetooth:
      - handle MSFT Monitor Device Event
      - add MGMT Adv Monitor Device Found/Lost events

   - Multi-Path TCP:
      - add support for the SO_SNDTIMEO socket option
      - lots of selftest cleanups and improvements

   - Increase the max PDU size in CAN ISOTP to 64 kB.

  Driver API
  ----------

   - Add HW counters for SW netdevs, a mechanism for devices which
     offload packet forwarding to report packet statistics back to
     software interfaces such as tunnels.

   - Select the default NIC queue count as a fraction of number of
     physical CPU cores, instead of hard-coding to 8.

   - Expose devlink instance locks to drivers. Allow device layer of
     drivers to use that lock directly instead of creating their own
     which always runs into ordering issues in devlink callbacks.

   - Add header/data split indication to guide user space enabling of
     TCP zero-copy Rx.

   - Allow configuring completion queue event size.

   - Refactor page_pool to enable fragmenting after allocation.

   - Add allocation and page reuse statistics to page_pool.

   - Improve Multiple Spanning Trees support in the bridge to allow
     reuse of topologies across VLANs, saving HW resources in switches.

   - DSA (Distributed Switch Architecture):
      - replay and offload of host VLAN entries
      - offload of static and local FDB entries on LAG interfaces
      - FDB isolation and unicast filtering

<title>SUNRPC: Teach server to recognize RPC_AUTH_TLS</title>

<content type='text'>
Initial support for the RPC_AUTH_TLS authentication flavor enables
NFSD to eventually accept an RPC_AUTH_TLS probe from clients. This
patch simply prevents NFSD from rejecting these probes completely.

In the meantime, graft this support in now so that RPC_AUTH_TLS
support keeps up with generic code and API changes in the RPC
server.

Down the road, server-side transport implementations will populate
xpo_start_tls when they can support RPC-with-TLS. For example, TCP
will eventually populate it, but RDMA won't.

<id>urn:sha1:a9ff2e99e9fa501ec965da03c18a5422b37a2f44</id>
<content type='text'>
We have never been able to track down and address the underlying
cause of the performance issues with workqueue-based service
support. svo_enqueue_xprt is called multiple times per RPC, so
it adds instruction path length, but always ends up at the same
function: svc_xprt_do_enqueue(). We do not anticipate needing
this flexibility for dynamic nfsd thread management support.

As a micro-optimization, remove .svo_enqueue_xprt because
Spectre/Meltdown makes virtual function calls more costly.

This change essentially reverts commit b9e13cdfac70 ("nfsd/sunrpc:
turn enqueueing a svc_xprt into a svc_serv operation").
