The congestion control ops "cwnd_event" currently supports
CA_EVENT_FAST_ACK and CA_EVENT_SLOW_ACK events (among others).
Both FAST and SLOW_ACK are only used by Westwood congestion
control algorithm.
This removes both flags from cwnd_event and adds a new
in_ack_event callback for this. The goal is to be able to
provide more detailed information about ACKs, such as whether
ECE flag was set, or whether the ACK resulted in a window
update.
It is required for DataCenter TCP (DCTCP) congestion control
algorithm as it makes a different choice depending on ECE being
set or not.

This patch adds a flag to TCP congestion algorithms that allows
for requesting to mark IPv4/IPv6 sockets with transport as ECN
capable, that is, ECT(0), when required by a congestion algorithm.
It is currently used and needed in DataCenter TCP (DCTCP), as it
requires both peers to assert ECT on all IP packets sent - it
uses ECN feedback (i.e. CE, Congestion Encountered information)
from switches inside the data center to derive feedback to the
end hosts.
Therefore, simply add a new flag to icsk_ca_ops. Note that DCTCP's
algorithm/behaviour slightly diverges from RFC3168, therefore this
is only (!) enabled iff the assigned congestion control ops module
has requested this. By that, we can tightly couple this logic really
only to the provided congestion control ops.

Split assignment and initialization from one into two functions.
This is required by followup patches that add Datacenter TCP
(DCTCP) congestion control algorithm - we need to be able to
determine if the connection is moderated by DCTCP before the
3WHS has finished.
As we walk the available congestion control list during the
assignment, we are always guaranteed to have Reno present as
it's fixed compiled-in. Therefore, since we're doing the
early assignment, we don't have a real use for the Reno alias
tcp_init_congestion_ops anymore and can thus remove it.
Actual usage of the congestion control operations are being
made after the 3WHS has finished, in some cases however we
can access get_info() via diag if implemented, therefore we
need to zero out the private area for those modules.

While doing high throughput test on a BQL enabled NIC,
I found a very high cost in ndo_start_xmit() when accessing BQL data.
It turned out the problem was caused by compiler trying to be
smart, but involving a bad MESI transaction :
0.05 │ mov 0xc0(%rax),%edi // LOAD dql->num_queued
0.48 │ mov %edx,0xc8(%rax) // STORE dql->last_obj_cnt = count
58.23 │ add %edx,%edi
0.58 │ cmp %edi,0xc4(%rax)
0.76 │ mov %edi,0xc0(%rax) // STORE dql->num_queued += count
0.72 │ js bd8
I got an incredible 10 % gain [1] by making sure cpu do not attempt
to get the cache line in Shared mode, but directly requests for
ownership.
New code :
mov %edx,0xc8(%rax) // STORE dql->last_obj_cnt = count
add %edx,0xc0(%rax) // RMW dql->num_queued += count
mov 0xc4(%rax),%ecx // LOAD dql->adj_limit
mov 0xc0(%rax),%edx // LOAD dql->num_queued
cmp %edx,%ecx
The TX completion was running from another cpu, with high interrupts
rate.
Note that I am using barrier() as a soft hint, as mb() here could be
too heavy cost.
[1] This was a netperf TCP_STREAM with TSO disabled, but GSO enabled.

always included in that specific port setup.

Our goal is to access no more than one cache line access per skb in
a write or receive queue when doing the various walks.
After recent TCP_SKB_CB() reorganizations, it is almost done.
Last part is tcp_skb_pcount() which currently uses
skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_segs, which is a terrible choice, because it needs
3 cache lines in current kernel (skb->head, skb->end, and
shinfo->gso_segs are all in 3 different cache lines, far from skb->cb)
This very simple patch reuses space currently taken by tcp_tw_isn
only in input path, as tcp_skb_pcount is only needed for skb stored in
write queue.
This considerably speeds up tcp_ack(), granted we avoid shinfo->tx_flags
to get SKBTX_ACK_TSTAMP, which seems possible.
This also speeds up all sack processing in general.
This speeds up tcp_sendmsg() because it no longer has to access/dirty
shinfo.

tcp: better TCP_SKB_CB layout
TCP had the assumption that IPCB and IP6CB are first members of skb->cb[]
This is fine, except that IPCB/IP6CB are used in TCP for a very short time
in input path.
What really matters for TCP stack is to get skb->next,
TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq, and TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq in the same cache line.
skb that are immediately consumed do not care because whole skb->cb[] is
hot in cpu cache, while skb that sit in wocket write queue or receive queues
do not need TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->header at all.
This patch set implements the prereq for IPv4, IPv6, and TCP to make this
possible. This makes TCP more efficient.

TCP maintains lists of skb in write queue, and in receive queues
(in order and out of order queues)
Scanning these lists both in input and output path usually requires
access to skb->next, TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->seq, and TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->end_seq
These fields are currently in two different cache lines, meaning we
waste lot of memory bandwidth when these queues are big and flows
have either packet drops or packet reorders.
We can move TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->header at the end of TCP_SKB_CB, because
this header is not used in fast path. This allows TCP to search much faster
in the skb lists.
Even with regular flows, we save one cache line miss in fast path.
Thanks to Christoph Paasch for noticing we need to cleanup
skb->cb[] (IPCB/IP6CB) before entering IP stack in tx path,
and that I forgot IPCB use in tcp_v4_hnd_req() and tcp_v4_save_options().

Only exchange source and destination filenames
if flags contain RENAME_EXCHANGE.
In case if executable file was running and replaced by
other file /proc/PID/exe should still show correct file name,
not the old name of the file by which it was replaced.
The scenario when this bug manifests itself was like this:
* ALT Linux uses rpm and start-stop-daemon;
* during a package upgrade rpm creates a temporary file
for an executable to rename it upon successful unpacking;
* start-stop-daemon is run subsequently and it obtains
the (nonexistant) temporary filename via /proc/PID/exe
thus failing to identify the running process.
Note that "long" filenames (> DNAiME_INLINE_LEN) are still
exchanged without RENAME_EXCHANGE and this behaviour exists
long enough (should be fixed too apparently).
So this patch is just an interim workaround that restores
behavior for "short" names as it was before changes
introduced by commit da1ce0670c14 ("vfs: add cross-rename").
See https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/7/6 for details.
AV: the comments about being more careful with ->d_name.hash
than with ->d_name.name are from back in 2.3.40s; they
became obsolete by 2.3.60s, when we started to unhash the
target instead of swapping hash chain positions followed
by d_delete() as we used to do when dcache was first
introduced.
