Sofar far pktgen have had a restriction to only use one device per kernel
thread. With the new multiqueue architecture this is no longer adequate.
The patch below is an effort to remove this by in pktgen configuration
adding a tag to the device name a la eth0@0 etc. The tag is used for
usual device config just as before. Also a new flag is introduced to mirror
queue_map with sending threads smp_processor_id() QUEUE_MAP_CPU.
An example: We use 4 CPU's to send to one 10g interface (eth0)
and we use the new tagging to send a mix of packet sizes, 64, 576 and
1500 bytes. Also we use TX queues according to smp_processor_id()

If a netdevice does not support hardware GSO, allowing the stack to
use GSO anyway and then splitting the GSO skb into MSS-sized pieces
as it is handed to the netdevice for transmitting is likely still
a win as far as throughput and/or CPU usage are concerned, since it
reduces the number of trips through the output path.
This patch enables the use of GSO on any netdevice that supports SG.
If a GSO skb is then sent to a netdevice that supports SG but does not
support hardware GSO, net/core/dev.c:dev_hard_start_xmit() will take
care of doing the necessary GSO segmentation in software.

Bug report from Steven Jan Springl:
Issuing the following command causes a kernel oops:
tc qdisc add dev eth0 handle ffff: ingress
The problem mostly stems from all of the special case handling of
ingress qdiscs.
So, to fix this, do the grafting operation the same way we do for TX
qdiscs. Which means that dev_activate() and dev_deactivate() now do
the "qdisc_sleeping <--> qdisc" transitions on dev->rx_queue too.
Future simplifications are possible now, mainly because it is
impossible for dev_queue->{qdisc,qdisc_sleeping} to be NULL. There
are NULL checks all over to handle the ingress qdisc special case
that used to exist before this commit.

Idea is from Patrick McHardy.
Instead of managing the list of qdiscs on the device level, manage it
in the root qdisc of a netdev_queue. This solves all kinds of
visibility issues during qdisc destruction.
The way to iterate over all qdiscs of a netdev_queue is to visit
the netdev_queue->qdisc, and then traverse it's list.
The only special case is to ignore builting qdiscs at the root when
dumping or doing a qdisc_lookup(). That was not needed previously
because builtin qdiscs were not added to the device's qdisc_list.
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
When we have shared qdiscs, packets come out of the qdiscs
for multiple transmit queues.
Therefore it doesn't make any sense to schedule the transmit
queue when logically we cannot know ahead of time the TX
queue of the SKB that the qdisc->dequeue() will give us.
Just for sanity I added a BUG check to make sure we never
get into a state where the noop_qdisc is scheduled.

Devices or device layers can set this to control the queue selection
performed by dev_pick_tx().
This function runs under RCU protection, which allows overriding
functions to have some way of synchronizing with things like dynamic
->real_num_tx_queues adjustments.
This makes the spinlock prefetch in dev_queue_xmit() a little bit
less effective, but that's the price right now for correctness.

This effectively "flips the switch" by making the core networking
and multiqueue-aware drivers use the new TX multiqueue structures.
Non-multiqueue drivers need no changes. The interfaces they use such
as netif_stop_queue() degenerate into an operation on TX queue zero.
So everything "just works" for them.
Code that really wants to do "X" to all TX queues now invokes a
routine that does so, such as netif_tx_wake_all_queues(),
netif_tx_stop_all_queues(), etc.
pktgen and netpoll required a little bit more surgery than the others.
In particular the pktgen changes, whilst functional, could be largely
improved. The initial check in pktgen_xmit() will sometimes check the
wrong queue, which is mostly harmless. The thing to do is probably to
invoke fill_packet() earlier.
The bulk of the netpoll changes is to make the code operate solely on
the TX queue indicated by by the SKB queue mapping.
Setting of the SKB queue mapping is entirely confined inside of
net/core/dev.c:dev_pick_tx(). If we end up needing any kind of
special semantics (drops, for example) it will be implemented here.
Finally, we now have a "real_num_tx_queues" which is where the driver
indicates how many TX queues are actually active.
With IGB changes from Jeff Kirsher.

alloc_netdev_mq() now allocates an array of netdev_queue
structures for TX, based upon the queue_count argument.
Furthermore, all accesses to the TX queues are now vectored
through the netdev_get_tx_queue() and netdev_for_each_tx_queue()
interfaces. This makes it easy to grep the tree for all
things that want to get to a TX queue of a net device.
Problem spots which are not really multiqueue aware yet, and
only work with one queue, can easily be spotted by grepping
for all netdev_get_tx_queue() calls that pass in a zero index.
