csum_partial() is a generic function which is not optimised for small fixed
length calculations, and its use requires to store "from" and "to" values in
memory while we already have them available in registers. This also has impact,
especially on RISC processors. In the same spirit as the change done by
Eric Dumazet on csum_replace2(), this patch rewrites inet_proto_csum_replace4()
taking into account RFC1624.
I spotted during a NATted tcp transfert that csum_partial() is one of top 5
consuming functions (around 8%), and the second user of csum_partial() is
inet_proto_csum_replace4().

net_get_random_once depends on the static keys infrastructure to patch up
the branch to the slow path during boot. This was realized by abusing the
static keys api and defining a new initializer to not enable the call
site while still indicating that the branch point should get patched
up. This was needed to have the fast path considered likely by gcc.
The static key initialization during boot up normally walks through all
the registered keys and either patches in ideal nops or enables the jump
site but omitted that step on x86 if ideal nops where already placed at
static_key branch points. Thus net_get_random_once branches not always
became active.
This patch switches net_get_random_once to the ordinary static_key
api and thus places the kernel fast path in the - by gcc considered -
unlikely path. Microbenchmarks on Intel and AMD x86-64 showed that
the unlikely path actually beats the likely path in terms of cycle cost
and that different nop patterns did not make much difference, thus this
switch should not be noticeable.

I initial build non irq safe version of net_get_random_once because I
would liked to have the freedom to defer even the extraction process of
get_random_bytes until the nonblocking pool is fully seeded.
I don't think this is a good idea anymore and thus this patch makes
net_get_random_once irq safe. Now someone using net_get_random_once does
not need to care from where it is called.

net_get_random_once is a new macro which handles the initialization
of secret keys. It is possible to call it in the fast path. Only the
initialization depends on the spinlock and is rather slow. Otherwise
it should get used just before the key is used to delay the entropy
extration as late as possible to get better randomness. It returns true
if the key got initialized.
The usage of static_keys for net_get_random_once is a bit uncommon so
it needs some further explanation why this actually works:
=== In the simple non-HAVE_JUMP_LABEL case we actually have ===
no constrains to use static_key_(true|false) on keys initialized with
STATIC_KEY_INIT_(FALSE|TRUE). So this path just expands in favor of
the likely case that the initialization is already done. The key is
initialized like this:
___done_key = { .enabled = ATOMIC_INIT(0) }
The check
if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \
expands into (pseudo code)
if (!likely(___done_key > 0))
, so we take the fast path as soon as ___done_key is increased from the
helper function.
=== If HAVE_JUMP_LABELs are available this depends ===
on patching of jumps into the prepared NOPs, which is done in
jump_label_init at boot-up time (from start_kernel). It is forbidden
and dangerous to use net_get_random_once in functions which are called
before that!
At compilation time NOPs are generated at the call sites of
net_get_random_once. E.g. net/ipv6/inet6_hashtable.c:inet6_ehashfn (we
need to call net_get_random_once two times in inet6_ehashfn, so two NOPs):
71: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
76: 0f 1f 44 00 00 nopl 0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
Both will be patched to the actual jumps to the end of the function to
call __net_get_random_once at boot time as explained above.
arch_static_branch is optimized and inlined for false as return value and
actually also returns false in case the NOP is placed in the instruction
stream. So in the fast case we get a "return false". But because we
initialize ___done_key with (enabled != (entries & 1)) this call-site
will get patched up at boot thus returning true. The final check looks
like this:
if (!static_key_true(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \
expands to
if (!!static_key_false(&___done_key)) \
___ret = __net_get_random_once(buf, \
So we get true at boot time and as soon as static_key_slow_inc is called
on the key it will invert the logic and return false for the fast path.
static_key_slow_inc will change the branch because it got initialized
with .enabled == 0. After static_key_slow_inc is called on the key the
branch is replaced with a nop again.
=== Misc: ===
The helper defers the increment into a workqueue so we don't
have problems calling this code from atomic sections. A seperate boolean
(___done) guards the case where we enter net_get_random_once again before
the increment happend.

in4_pton converts a textual representation of an ip4 address
into an integer representation. However, when the textual representation
is of in the form ip:port, e.g. 192.168.1.1:5060, and 'delim' is set to
-1, the function bails out with an error when reading the colon.
It makes sense to allow the colon as a delimiting character without
explicitly having to set it through the 'delim' variable as there can be
no ambiguity in the point where the ip address is completely parsed. This
function is indeed called from nf_conntrack_sip.c in this way to parse
textual ip:port combinations which fails due to the reason stated above.

As a preparation for changing that, we need to convert various 0 -> NR_CPUS

(The above only applies to users of asm-generic/percpu.h. powerpc has gone it
