Implementation of dynamic queue limits (dql). This is a libary which
allows a queue limit to be dynamically managed. The goal of dql is
to set the queue limit, number of objects to the queue, to be minimized
without allowing the queue to be starved.
dql would be used with a queue which has these properties:
1) Objects are queued up to some limit which can be expressed as a
count of objects.
2) Periodically a completion process executes which retires consumed
objects.
3) Starvation occurs when limit has been reached, all queued data has
actually been consumed but completion processing has not yet run,
so queuing new data is blocked.
4) Minimizing the amount of queued data is desirable.
A canonical example of such a queue would be a NIC HW transmit queue.
The queue limit is dynamic, it will increase or decrease over time
depending on the workload. The queue limit is recalculated each time
completion processing is done. Increases occur when the queue is
starved and can exponentially increase over successive intervals.
Decreases occur when more data is being maintained in the queue than
needed to prevent starvation. The number of extra objects, or "slack",
is measured over successive intervals, and to avoid hysteresis the
limit is only reduced by the miminum slack seen over a configurable
time period.
dql API provides routines to manage the queue:
- dql_init is called to intialize the dql structure
- dql_reset is called to reset dynamic values
- dql_queued called when objects are being enqueued
- dql_avail returns availability in the queue
- dql_completed is called when objects have be consumed in the queue
Configuration consists of:
- max_limit, maximum limit
- min_limit, minimum limit
- slack_hold_time, time to measure instances of slack before reducing
queue limit

Since 2005 (c1b4a7e695)
tcp_tso_should_defer has been using tcp_max_burst() as a target limit
for deciding how large to make outgoing TSO packets when not using
sysctl_tcp_tso_win_divisor. But since 2008
(dd9e0dda66) tcp_max_burst() returns the
reordering degree. We should not have tcp_tso_should_defer attempt to
build larger segments just because there is more reordering. This
commit splits the notion of deferral size used in TSO from the notion
of burst size used in cwnd moderation, and returns the TSO deferral
limit to its original value.

struct nr_route_struct's mnemonic permits a string of up to 7 bytes to be

a node to the routing table might result in the kernel attempting to read
copy a too long string.
Mnemonic is part of the NET/ROM routing protocol; NET/ROM routing table
updates only broadcast 6 bytes. The 7th byte in the mnemonic array exists
only as a \0 termination character for the kernel code's convenience.
Fixed by rejecting mnemonic strings that have no terminating \0 in the first
7 characters. Do this test only NETROM_NODE to avoid breaking NETROM_NEIGH
where userland might passing an uninitialized mnemonic field.

Tg3 normally gets a performance boost by increasing the PCI Maximum Read
Request Size (MRRS) to 4k. Unfortunately, this is causing some problems
on particular hardware platforms. This patch removes all code that
modifies the MRRS except for one case.
As part of a solution to fix an internal FIFO problem on the 5719, the
driver artificially capped the MRRS to 2k for the entire 5719, and later
5720, ASIC revs. This was overly aggressive and only really needed to
be done for the 5719 A0. In the spirit of the rest of this patch, the
driver will only reprogram the MRRS for this device if the value exceeds
the 2k cap.

On the earliest TSO capable devices, TSO was accomplished through
firmware. The TSO cannot coexist with ASF management firmware though.
The tg3 driver determines whether or not ASF is enabled by calling
tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg(), which checks a particular bit of NIC memory.
Commit dabc5c670d, entitled "tg3: Move
TSO_CAPABLE assignment", accidentally moved the code that determines
TSO capabilities earlier than the call to tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg(). As a
consequence, the driver was attempting to determine TSO capabilities
before it had all the data it needed to make the decision.
This patch fixes the problem by revisiting and reevaluating the decision
after tg3_get_eeprom_hw_cfg() is called.

The problem: Senders were overriding cwnd values picked during an undo
by calling tcp_moderate_cwnd() in tcp_try_to_open().
The fix: Don't moderate cwnd in tcp_try_to_open() if we're in
TCP_CA_Open, since doing so is generally unnecessary and specifically
would override a DSACK-based undo of a cwnd reduction made in fast
recovery.

Previously, SACK-enabled connections hung around in TCP_CA_Disorder
state while snd_una==high_seq, just waiting to accumulate DSACKs and
hopefully undo a cwnd reduction. This could and did lead to the
following unfortunate scenario: if some incoming ACKs advance snd_una
beyond high_seq then we were setting undo_marker to 0 and moving to
TCP_CA_Open, so if (due to reordering in the ACK return path) we
shortly thereafter received a DSACK then we were no longer able to
undo the cwnd reduction.
The change: Simplify the congestion avoidance state machine by
removing the behavior where SACK-enabled connections hung around in
the TCP_CA_Disorder state just waiting for DSACKs. Instead, when
snd_una advances to high_seq or beyond we typically move to
TCP_CA_Open immediately and allow an undo in either TCP_CA_Open or
TCP_CA_Disorder if we later receive enough DSACKs.

The bug: When the ACK field is below snd_una (which can happen when
ACKs are reordered), senders ignored DSACKs (preventing undo) and did
not call tcp_fastretrans_alert, so they did not increment
prr_delivered to reflect newly-SACKed sequence ranges, and did not
call tcp_xmit_retransmit_queue, thus passing up chances to send out
more retransmitted and new packets based on any newly-SACKed packets.
The change: When the ACK field is below snd_una (the "old_ack" goto
label), call tcp_fastretrans_alert to allow undo based on any
newly-arrived DSACKs and try to send out more packets based on
newly-SACKed packets.
