When the packet pointed to by retransmit_skb_hint is unlinked by ACK,
retransmit_skb_hint will be set to NULL in tcp_clean_rtx_queue().
If packet loss is detected at this time, retransmit_skb_hint will be set
to point to the current packet loss in tcp_verify_retransmit_hint(),
then the packets that were previously marked lost but not retransmitted
due to the restriction of cwnd will be skipped and cannot be
retransmitted.
To fix this, when retransmit_skb_hint is NULL, retransmit_skb_hint can
be reset only after all marked lost packets are retransmitted
(retrans_out >= lost_out), otherwise we need to traverse from
tcp_rtx_queue_head in tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue().

When registering a umem area that is sufficiently large (>1G on an
x86), kmalloc cannot be used to allocate one of the internal data
structures, as the size requested gets too large. Use kvmalloc instead
that falls back on vmalloc if the allocation is too large for kmalloc.
Also add accounting for this structure as it is triggered by a user

To safely get rid of all rpcrdma_reps from a particular connection
instance, xprtrdma has to wait until each of those reps is finished
being used. A rep may be backing the rq_rcv_buf of an RPC that has
just completed, for example.
Since it is safe to invoke rpcrdma_rep_destroy() only in the Receive
completion handler, simply mark reps remaining in the rb_all_reps
list after the transport is drained. These will then be deleted as
rpcrdma_post_recvs pulls them off the rep free list.

This reduces the hardware and memory footprint of an unconnected
transport.
At some point in the future, transport reconnect will allow
resolving the destination IP address through a different device. The
current change enables reps for the new connection to be allocated

Note that this does not destroy _all_ the transport's reps... there
will be a few that are still part of a running RPC completion.

Currently the underlying RDMA device is chosen at transport set-up
time. But it will soon be at connect time instead.
The maximum size of a transport header is based on device
capabilities. Thus transport header buffers have to be allocated
_after_ the underlying device has been chosen (via address and route
resolution); ie, in the connect worker.
Thus, move the allocation of transport header buffers to the connect
worker, after the point at which the underlying RDMA device has been
chosen.
This also means the RDMA device is available to do a DMA mapping of
these buffers at connect time, instead of in the hot I/O path. Make
that optimization as well.

This means that possibly one or two in-tree devices are no longer

The size of the sendctx queue depends on the value stored in

Eventually, rpcrdma_ia_open() and rpcrdma_ep_create() will be called
in the connect worker rather than at transport set-up time. The

TKIP replay protection was skipped for the very first frame received
after a new key is configured. While this is potentially needed to avoid
dropping a frame in some cases, this does leave a window for replay
attacks with group-addressed frames at the station side. Any earlier
frame sent by the AP using the same key would be accepted as a valid
frame and the internal RSC would then be updated to the TSC from that
frame. This would allow multiple previously transmitted group-addressed
frames to be replayed until the next valid new group-addressed frame
from the AP is received by the station.
Fix this by limiting the no-replay-protection exception to apply only
for the case where TSC=0, i.e., when this is for the very first frame
protected using the new key, and the local RSC had not been set to a
higher value when configuring the key (which may happen with GTK).

When performing L3 offload, routes and nexthops are usually programmed
into two different tables in the underlying device. Therefore, the fact
that a nexthop resides in hardware does not necessarily mean that all
the associated routes also reside in hardware and vice-versa.
While the kernel can signal to user space the presence of a nexthop in
hardware (via 'RTNH_F_OFFLOAD'), it does not have a corresponding flag
for routes. In addition, the fact that a route resides in hardware does
not necessarily mean that the traffic is offloaded. For example,
unreachable routes (i.e., 'RTN_UNREACHABLE') are programmed to trap
packets to the CPU so that the kernel will be able to generate the
appropriate ICMP error packet.
This patch adds an "offload" and "trap" indications to IPv4 routes, so
that users will have better visibility into the offload process.
'struct fib_alias' is extended with two new fields that indicate if the
route resides in hardware or not and if it is offloading traffic from
the kernel or trapping packets to it. Note that the new fields are added
in the 6 bytes hole and therefore the struct still fits in a single
cache line [1].
Capable drivers are expected to invoke fib_alias_hw_flags_set() with the
route's key in order to set the flags.
The indications are dumped to user space via a new flags (i.e.,
'RTM_F_OFFLOAD' and 'RTM_F_TRAP') in the 'rtm_flags' field in the
ancillary header.

Subsequent patches will add an offload / trap indication to routes which
will signal if the route is present in hardware or not.
After programming the route to the hardware, drivers will have to ask
the IPv4 code to set the flags by passing the route's key.
In the case of route replace, the new route is notified before it is
actually inserted into the FIB alias list. This can prevent simple
drivers (e.g., netdevsim) that program the route to the hardware in the
same context it is notified in from being able to set the flag.
Solve this by first inserting the new route to the list and rollback the
operation in case the route was vetoed.

In order to prevent overconsumption of resources on the remote side QRTR

The mechanism works by the sender keeping track of the number of
outstanding unconfirmed messages that has been transmitted to a
particular node/port pair.
Upon count reaching a low watermark (L) the confirm_rx bit is set in the
outgoing message and when the count reaching a high watermark (H)
transmission will be blocked upon the reception of a resume_tx message
from the remote, that resets the counter to 0.
This guarantees that there will be at most 2H - L messages in flight.
