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>cgroup, netclassid: periodically release file_lock on classid updating</title>

<id>018d26fcd12a75fb9b5fe233762aa3f2f0854b88</id>
<content type='text'>
In our production environment we have faced with problem that updating
classid in cgroup with heavy tasks cause long freeze of the file tables
in this tasks. By heavy tasks we understand tasks with many threads and
opened sockets (e.g. balancers). This freeze leads to an increase number
of client timeouts.

This patch implements following logic to fix this issue:
аfter iterating 1000 file descriptors file table lock will be released
thus providing a time gap for socket creation/deletion.

Now update is non atomic and socket may be skipped using calls:

dup2(oldfd, newfd);
close(oldfd);

But this case is not typical. Moreover before this patch skip is possible
too by hiding socket fd in unix socket buffer.

New sockets will be allocated with updated classid because cgroup state
is updated before start of the file descriptors iteration.

So in common cases this patch has no side effects.

Fixes the lower and upper bounds when there are multiple TCs and
traffic is on the the same TC on the same device.

The lower bound is represented by 'qoffset' and the upper limit for
hash value is 'qcount + qoffset'. This gives a clean Rx to Tx queue
mapping when there are multiple TCs, as the queue indices for upper TCs
will be offset by 'qoffset'.

v2: Fixed commit description based on comments.

Fixes: 1b837d489e06 ("net: Revoke export for __skb_tx_hash, update it to just be static skb_tx_hash")

Variables declared in a switch statement before any case statements
cannot be automatically initialized with compiler instrumentation (as
they are not part of any execution flow). With GCC's proposed automatic
stack variable initialization feature, this triggers a warning (and they
don't get initialized). Clang's automatic stack variable initialization
(via CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL=y) doesn't throw a warning, but it also
doesn't initialize such variables[1]. Note that these warnings (or silent
skipping) happen before the dead-store elimination optimization phase,
so even when the automatic initializations are later elided in favor of
direct initializations, the warnings remain.

To avoid these problems, move such variables into the "case" where
they're used or lift them up into the main function body.

net/core/skbuff.c: In function ‘skb_checksum_setup_ip’:

Ahmed reported ouf-of-order issues bisected to commit ba27b4cdaaa6
("net: dev: introduce support for sch BYPASS for lockless qdisc").
I can't find any working solution other than a plain revert.

This will introduce some minor performance regressions for
pfifo_fast qdisc. I plan to address them in net-next with more
indirect call wrapper boilerplate for qdiscs.
