commit c9af6db4c1 (net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation)
has a suspicous piece:
- skb_shinfo(skb1)->gso_type = skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type;
-
+ skb_shinfo(skb)->tx_flags = skb_shinfo(skb1)->tx_flags & SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG;
skb1 is the new skb, therefore should be on the left side of the assignment.
This patch fixes it.

Following patch adds GRE protocol offload handler so that
skb_gso_segment() can segment GRE packets.
SKB GSO CB is added to keep track of total header length so that
skb_segment can push entire header. e.g. in case of GRE, skb_segment
need to push inner and outer headers to every segment.
New NETIF_F_GRE_GSO feature is added for devices which support HW
GRE TSO offload. Currently none of devices support it therefore GRE GSO
always fall backs to software GSO.

Patch cef401de7b (net: fix possible wrong checksum
generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by
defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type.
net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation
offload of such packets without the feature.
Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses
same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag
SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by
the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared
info tx_flags rather than gso_type.
tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with
shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to
GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this.

Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate
wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten
by the user between the checksum computation and transmit.
He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be
avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg().
This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set
in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be
modified by the user.
Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(),
sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

This patch adds support in the kernel for offloading in the NIC Tx and Rx
checksumming for encapsulated packets (such as VXLAN and IP GRE).
For Tx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set the right bits
in netdev->hw_enc_features. The protocol driver will have to set the
skb->encapsulation bit and populate the inner headers, so the NIC driver will
use those inner headers to calculate the csum in hardware.
For Rx encapsulation offload, the driver will need to set again the
skb->encapsulation flag and the skb->ip_csum to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
In that case the protocol driver should push the decapsulated packet up
to the stack, again with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. In ether case, the protocol
driver should set the skb->encapsulation flag back to zero. Finally the
protocol driver should have NETIF_F_RXCSUM flag set in its features.

If head is stolen, we free the sk_buff,
without removing references on secpath (skb->sp).
So IPsec + IP defrag/reassembly (using skb coalescing), or
TCP coalescing could leak secpath objects.

Over time, skb recycling infrastructure got litle interest and

We currently use percpu order-0 pages in __netdev_alloc_frag
to deliver fragments used by __netdev_alloc_skb()
Depending on NIC driver and arch being 32 or 64 bit, it allows a page to
be split in several fragments (between 1 and 8), assuming PAGE_SIZE=4096
Switching to bigger pages (32768 bytes for PAGE_SIZE=4096 case) allows :
- Better filling of space (the ending hole overhead is less an issue)
- Less calls to page allocator or accesses to page->_count
- Could allow struct skb_shared_info futures changes without major
performance impact.
This patch implements a transparent fallback to smaller
pages in case of memory pressure.
It also uses a standard "struct page_frag" instead of a custom one.

We currently use a per socket order-0 page cache for tcp_sendmsg()
operations.
This page is used to build fragments for skbs.
Its done to increase probability of coalescing small write() into
single segments in skbs still in write queue (not yet sent)
But it wastes a lot of memory for applications handling many mostly
idle sockets, since each socket holds one page in sk->sk_sndmsg_page
Its also quite inefficient to build TSO 64KB packets, because we need
about 16 pages per skb on arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096, so we hit
page allocator more than wanted.
This patch adds a per task frag allocator and uses bigger pages,
if available. An automatic fallback is done in case of memory pressure.
(up to 32768 bytes per frag, thats order-3 pages on x86)
This increases TCP stream performance by 20% on loopback device,
but also benefits on other network devices, since 8x less frags are
mapped on transmit and unmapped on tx completion. Alexander Duyck
mentioned a probable performance win on systems with IOMMU enabled.
Its possible some SG enabled hardware cant cope with bigger fragments,
but their ndo_start_xmit() should already handle this, splitting a
fragment in sub fragments, since some arches have PAGE_SIZE=65536

Change the skb allocation API to indicate RX usage and use this to fall
back to the PFMEMALLOC reserve when needed. SKBs allocated from the
reserve are tagged in skb->pfmemalloc. If an SKB is allocated from the
reserve and the socket is later found to be unrelated to page reclaim, the
packet is dropped so that the memory remains available for page reclaim.
Network protocols are expected to recover from this packet loss.

This patch is meant to help improve performance by reducing the number of
locked operations required to allocate a frag on x86 and other platforms.
This is accomplished by using atomic_set operations on the page count
instead of calling get_page and put_page. It is based on work originally
provided by Eric Dumazet.
In addition it also helps to reduce memory overhead when using TCP. This
is done by recycling the page if the only holder of the frame is the
netdev_alloc_frag call itself. This can occur when skb heads are stolen by
either GRO or TCP and the driver providing the packets is using paged frags
to store all of the data for the packets.

__alloc_skb() now extends tailroom to allow the use of padding added
by the heap allocator.

Move tcp_try_coalesce() protocol independent part to
skb_try_coalesce().
skb_try_coalesce() can be used in IPv4 defrag and IPv6 reassembly,
to build optimized skbs (less sk_buff, and possibly less 'headers')
skb_try_coalesce() is zero copy, unless the copy can fit in destination
header (its a rare case)
kfree_skb_partial() is also moved to net/core/skbuff.c and exported,
because IPv6 will need it in patch (ipv6: use skb coalescing in
reassembly).

Fix two issues introduced in commit a1c7fff7e1
( net: netdev_alloc_skb() use build_skb() )
- Must be IRQ safe (non NAPI drivers can use it)
- Must not leak the frag if build_skb() fails to allocate sk_buff
This patch introduces netdev_alloc_frag() for drivers willing to
use build_skb() instead of __netdev_alloc_skb() variants.
Factorize code so that :
__dev_alloc_skb() is a wrapper around __netdev_alloc_skb(), and
dev_alloc_skb() a wrapper around netdev_alloc_skb()
Use __GFP_COLD flag.
Almost all network drivers now benefit from skb->head_frag
infrastructure.

netdev_alloc_skb() is used by networks driver in their RX path to
allocate an skb to receive an incoming frame.
With recent skb->head_frag infrastructure, it makes sense to change
netdev_alloc_skb() to use build_skb() and a frag allocator.
This permits a zero copy splice(socket->pipe), and better GRO or TCP
coalescing.

Use the current logging style.
This enables use of dynamic debugging as well.
Convert printk(KERN_<LEVEL> to pr_<level>.
Add pr_fmt. Remove embedded prefixes, use
%s, __func__ instead.

With the recent changes for how we compute the skb truesize it occurs to me
we are probably going to have a lot of calls to skb_end_pointer -
skb->head. Instead of running all over the place doing that it would make
more sense to just make it a separate inline skb_end_offset(skb) that way
we can return the correct value without having gcc having to do all the
optimization to cancel out skb->head - skb->head.
