This avoids an indirect calls for L3 GRO receive path, both

Note that when IPv6 is compiled as builtin, it will be checked first,

It boils down to explicitly comparing the function pointers to

Currently the driver issues 2 mmio reads to figure out the number of
transmitted packets and clean them. We can get rid of the expensive
reads since BIT 31 of the Tx descriptor can be used for that.
We can also remove the budget counting of Tx completions since all of
the descriptors are not deliberately processed.

Running pktgen with packets sizes > 512b ends up in the interface Txq
getting stuck.
"netsec 522d0000.ethernet eth0: netsec_netdev_start_xmit: TxQFull!"
appears on dmesg but the interface never recovers. It requires an
ifconfig down/up to make the interface usable again.
The reason that triggers this, is a race condition between
.ndo_start_xmit and the napi completion. The available budget is
calculated first and indicates the queue is full. Due to a costly
netif_err() the queue is not stopped in time while the napi completion
runs, clears the irq and frees up descriptors, thus the queue never wakes
up again.
Fix this by moving the print after stopping the queue, make the print
ratelimited, add barriers and check for cleaned descriptors..

net: prefer listeners bound to an address
A relatively common use case is to have several IPs configured
on a host, and have different listeners for each of them. We would
like to add a "catch all" listener on addr_any, to match incoming
connections not served by any of the listeners bound to a specific
address.
However, port-only lookups can match addr_any sockets when sockets
listening on specific addresses are present if so_reuseport flag
is set. This patchset eliminates lookups into port-only hashtable,
as lookups by (addr,port) tuple are easily available.
In a future patchset I plan to explore whether it is possible
to remove port-only hashtables completely: additional refactoring
will be required, as some non-lookup code uses the hashtables.

Patch 3 removes 2 now unnecessary arguments to neigh_del.
Patch 4 moves a helper from a header file to core code in preparation
for Patch 5 which removes NTF_EXT_LEARNED entries from the gc_list.

====================
Introduce NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR
Spectrum devices have a limitation that all router interfaces need to
have the same address prefix. In Spectrum-1, the requirement is for the
initial 38 bits of all RIFs to be the same, in Spectrum-2 the limit is
36 bits. Currently violations of this requirement are not diagnosed. At
the same time, if the condition is not upheld, the mismatched MAC
address ends up overwriting the common prefix, and all RIF MAC addresses
silently change to the new prefix.
It is therefore desirable to be able at least to diagnose the issue, and
better to reject attempts to change MAC addresses in ways that is
incompatible with the device.
Currently MAC address changes are notified through emission of
NETDEV_CHANGEADDR, which is done after the change. Extending this
message to allow vetoing is certainly possible, but several other
notification types have instead adopted a simple two-stage approach:
first a "pre" notification is sent to make sure all interested parties
are OK with the change that's about to be done. Then the change is done,
and afterwards a "post" notification is sent.
This dual approach is easier to use: when the change is vetoed, nothing
has changed yet, and it's therefore unnecessary to roll anything back.
Therefore this patchset introduces it for NETDEV_CHANGEADDR as well.
One prominent path to emitting NETDEV_CHANGEADDR is through
dev_set_mac_address(). Therefore in patch #1, give this function an
extack argument, so that a textual reason for rejection (or a warning)
can be communicated back to the user.
In patch #2, add the new notification type. In patch #3, have dev.c emit
the notification for instances of dev_addr change, or addition of an
address to dev_addrs list.
In patches #4 and #5, extend the bridge driver to handle and emit the
new notifier.
In patch #6, change IPVLAN to emit the new notifier.
Likewise for bonding driver in patches #7 and #8. Note that the team
driver doesn't need this treatment, as it goes through
dev_set_mac_address().
In patches #9, #10 and #11 adapt mlxsw to veto MAC addresses on router
interfaces, if they violate the requirement that all RIF MAC addresses
have the same prefix.
Finally in patches #12 and #13, add a test for vetoing of a direct
change of a port device MAC, and indirect change of a bridge MAC.
