<title>net: memcg: late association of sock to memcg</title>

<content type='text'>
If a TCP socket is allocated in IRQ context or cloned from unassociated
(i.e. not associated to a memcg) in IRQ context then it will remain
unassociated for its whole life. Almost half of the TCPs created on the
system are created in IRQ context, so, memory used by such sockets will
not be accounted by the memcg.

This issue is more widespread in cgroup v1 where network memory
accounting is opt-in but it can happen in cgroup v2 if the source socket
for the cloning was created in root memcg.

To fix the issue, just do the association of the sockets at the accept()
time in the process context and then force charge the memory buffer
already used and reserved by the socket.

<title>xsk, net: Make sock_def_readable() have external linkage</title>

XDP sockets use the default implementation of struct sock's
sk_data_ready callback, which is sock_def_readable(). This function
is called in the XDP socket fast-path, and involves a retpoline. By
letting sock_def_readable() have external linkage, and being called
directly, the retpoline can be avoided.

<title>net: annotate lockless accesses to sk-&gt;sk_pacing_shift</title>

sk-&gt;sk_pacing_shift can be read and written without lock
synchronization. This patch adds annotations to
document this fact and avoid future syzbot complains.

This might also avoid unexpected false sharing
in sk_pacing_shift_update(), as the compiler
could remove the conditional check and always
write over sk-&gt;sk_pacing_shift :

if (sk-&gt;sk_pacing_shift != val)
	sk-&gt;sk_pacing_shift = val;

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "The main changes in this cycle were:

   - A comprehensive rewrite of the robust/PI futex code's exit handling
     to fix various exit races. (Thomas Gleixner et al)

   - Rework the generic REFCOUNT_FULL implementation using
     atomic_fetch_* operations so that the performance impact of the
     cmpxchg() loops is mitigated for common refcount operations.

     With these performance improvements the generic implementation of
     refcount_t should be good enough for everybody - and this got
     confirmed by performance testing, so remove ARCH_HAS_REFCOUNT and
     REFCOUNT_FULL entirely, leaving the generic implementation enabled
     unconditionally. (Will Deacon)

   - Other misc changes, fixes, cleanups"

The only slightly tricky merge conflict was the netdevsim because the
mutex locking fix overlapped a lot of driver reload reorganization.

The rest were (relatively) trivial in nature.

Use READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() annotations to document this,
and avoid some compiler 'optimizations'.

Busy polling usually runs without locks.
Let's use skb_queue_empty_lockless() instead of skb_queue_empty()

Also uses READ_ONCE() in __skb_try_recv_datagram() to address
a similar potential problem.

Busy polling usually runs without locks.
Let's use skb_queue_empty_lockless() instead of skb_queue_empty()

Also uses READ_ONCE() in __skb_try_recv_datagram() to address
a similar potential problem.

Several cases of overlapping changes which were for the most
part trivially resolvable.

For the sake of tcp_poll(), there are few places where we fetch
sk-&gt;sk_wmem_queued while this field can change from IRQ or other cpu.

We need to add READ_ONCE() annotations, and also make sure write
sides use corresponding WRITE_ONCE() to avoid store-tearing.

sk_wmem_queued_add() helper is added so that we can in
the future convert to ADD_ONCE() or equivalent if/when
available.
