====================
This set introduces bpf_iter for task_vma, which can be used to generate
information similar to /proc/pid/maps. Patch 4/4 adds an example that
mimics /proc/pid/maps.
Current /proc/<pid>/maps and /proc/<pid>/smaps provide information of
vma's of a process. However, these information are not flexible enough to
cover all use cases. For example, if a vma cover mixed 2MB pages and 4kB
pages (x86_64), there is no easy way to tell which address ranges are
backed by 2MB pages. task_vma solves the problem by enabling the user to
generate customize information based on the vma (and vma->vm_mm,
vma->vm_file, etc.).
Changes v6 => v7:
1. Let BPF iter program use bpf_d_path without specifying sleepable.
(Alexei)
Changes v5 => v6:
1. Add more comments for task_vma_seq_get_next() to explain the logic
of find_vma() calls. (Alexei)
2. Skip vma found by find_vma() when both vm_start and vm_end matches
prev_vm_[start|end]. Previous versions only compares vm_start.
IOW, if vma of [4k, 8k] is replaced by [4k, 12k] after relocking
mmap_lock, v5 will skip the new vma, while v6 will process it.
Changes v4 => v5:
1. Fix a refcount leak on task_struct. (Yonghong)
2. Fix the selftest. (Yonghong)
Changes v3 => v4:
1. Avoid skipping vma by assigning invalid prev_vm_start in
task_vma_seq_stop(). (Yonghong)
2. Move "again" label in task_vma_seq_get_next() save a check. (Yonghong)
Changes v2 => v3:
1. Rewrite 1/4 so that we hold mmap_lock while calling BPF program. This
enables the BPF program to access the real vma with BTF. (Alexei)
2. Fix the logic when the control is returned to user space. (Yonghong)
3. Revise commit log and cover letter. (Yonghong)
Changes v1 => v2:
1. Small fixes in task_iter.c and the selftests. (Yonghong)

Introduce task_vma bpf_iter to print memory information of a process. It
can be used to print customized information similar to /proc/<pid>/maps.
Current /proc/<pid>/maps and /proc/<pid>/smaps provide information of
vma's of a process. However, these information are not flexible enough to

generate customize information based on the vma (and vma->vm_mm,

To access the vma safely in the BPF program, task_vma iterator holds
target mmap_lock while calling the BPF program. If the mmap_lock is
contended, task_vma unlocks mmap_lock between iterations to unblock the
writer(s). This lock contention avoidance mechanism is similar to the one
used in show_smaps_rollup().

When libbpf initializes the kernel's struct_ops in
"bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops()", it enforces all
pointer types must be a function pointer and rejects
others. It turns out to be too strict. For example,
when directly using "struct tcp_congestion_ops" from vmlinux.h,
it has a "struct module *owner" member and it is set to NULL
in a bpf_tcp_cc.o.
Instead, it only needs to ensure the member is a function
pointer if it has been set (relocated) to a bpf-prog.
This patch moves the "btf_is_func_proto(kern_mtype)" check
after the existing "if (!prog) { continue; }". The original debug
message in "if (!prog) { continue; }" is also removed since it is
no longer valid. Beside, there is a later debug message to tell
which function pointer is set.
The "btf_is_func_proto(mtype)" has already been guaranteed
in "bpf_object__collect_st_ops_relos()" which has been run
before "bpf_map__init_kern_struct_ops()". Thus, this check
is removed.
v2:
- Remove outdated debug message (Andrii)
Remove because there is a later debug message to tell
which function pointer is set.
- Following mtype->type is no longer needed. Remove:
"skip_mods_and_typedefs(btf, mtype->type, &mtype_id)"
- Do "if (!prog)" test before skip_mods_and_typedefs.

The biggest flaw in current minstrel_ht is the fact that it needs way too
many probing packets to be able to quickly find the best rate.
Depending on the wifi hardware and operating mode, this can significantly
reduce throughput when not operating at the highest available data rate.
In order to be able to significantly reduce the amount of rate sampling,
we need a much smarter selection of probing rates.
The new approach introduced by this patch maintains a limited set of
available rates to be tested during a statistics window.
They are split into distinct categories:
- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_INC - incremental rate upgrade:
Pick the next rate group and find the first rate that is faster than
the current max. throughput rate
- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_JUMP - random testing of higher rates:
Pick a random rate from the next group that is faster than the current
max throughput rate. This allows faster adaptation when the link changes
significantly
- MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_SLOW - test a rate between max_prob, max_tp2 and
max_tp in order to reduce the gap between them
In order to prioritize sampling, every 6 attempts are split into 3x INC,
2x JUMP, 1x SLOW.
Available rates are checked and refilled on every stats window update.
With this approach, we finally get a very small delta in throughput when
comparing setting the optimal data rate as a fixed rate vs normal rate
control operation.

In order to more gracefully be able to fall back to lower rates without too
much throughput fluctuations, initialize all untested rates below tested ones
to the maximum probabilty of higher rates.
Usually this leads to untested lower rates getting initialized with a
probability value of 100%, making them better candidates for fallback without
having to rely on random probing

Sparse started warning on this function because we can potentially
return an uninitialized value. The reason is that if the caller
passes a min_bw value that is higher then the last value in bws[], we
will not go into the loop and reg_rule will remain initialized. This
cannot happen because the only caller of this function uses either 1

This patch unifies sending control port frames
over nl80211 and AF_PACKET sockets a little more.
Before this patch, EAPOL frames got QoS prioritization
only when using AF_PACKET sockets.
__ieee80211_select_queue only selects a QoS-enabled queue
for control port frames, when the control port protocol
is set correctly on the skb. For the AF_PACKET path this
works, but the nl80211 path used ETH_P_802_3.
Another check for injected frames in wme.c then prevented
the QoS TID to be copied in the frame.
In order to fix this, get rid of the frame injection marking
for nl80211 ctrl port and set the correct ethernet protocol.
Please note:
An erlier version of this path tried to prevent
frame aggregation for control port frames in order to speed up
the initial connection setup a little. This seemed to cause
issues on my older Intel dvm-based hardware, and was therefore
removed again. Future commits which try to reintroduce this
have to check carefully how hw behaves with aggregated and
non-aggregated traffic for the same TID.

Use napi to reduce overhead on rx interrupts.
Driver used to interrupt kernel for every Rx packet, this could
affect both system and network performance. NAPI is a mechanism that
uses polling when processing huge amount of traffic, by doing this
the number of interrupts can be decreased.
Network performance can also benefit from this patch. Since TCP
connection is bidirectional and acks are required for every several
packets. These ack packets occupie the PCI bus bandwidth and could
lead to performance degradation.
When napi is used, GRO receive is enabled by default in the mac80211
stack. So mac80211 won't pass every RX TCP packets to the kernel TCP
network stack immediately. Instead an aggregated large length TCP packet
will be delivered.
This reduces the tx acks sent and gains rx performance. After the patch,
the Rx throughput increases about 25Mbps in 11ac.

Since we set the IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL flag, so use_rts in
ieee80211_tx_info will never be set in the ieee80211_xmit_fast path.
Add length check for skb to decide whether rts is needed.
