That prevents it from being used as an lvalue, which is mostly where
it's used, with the rcu-protected structure, so this will remain a
macro. I'll make it upper-case though.

You're right. I've changed this now. That produces slightly worse code
on gcc 8.2, but that's not really hot path anyway, so it doesn't
matter.

I've made these little helper macros uppercase.

Actually for this function (in contrast with all of the other ones
marked as such, which really must have the annotation), recent gcc
gets it right, so I've removed the annotation. Nice catch.

I've made this a function now and confirmed codegen did not change
significantly.

I've added a comment. The reason, if you're curious, is so that we can
pass it to fls64 on all platforms.

Actually no, it's only used in one place, and that function is pretty
clear about checking beforehand, and even this function checks
implicitly. Looking at my commit log, I had added the annotation to
make clang-analyzer happy, because it couldn't (at the time) deduce
things correctly from rcu_access_pointer(p) checks. It looks like
recent clang-analyzer has fixed that, and besides I'm not sure the
kernel is in the business of adding annotations to work around
static-analyzer-bug-of-the-week. So I've gotten rid of the annotation.
Thanks for bringing my attention to it.

That sounds like it could be useful. Though, I'm trying hard to make
the first patch submission _not_ need to touch any of the rest of the
networking stack. I've actually got a small list of interesting
networking stack changes that might be useful for WireGuard, but I
think I'd prefer to submit these after this is all merged, and each
one separately for a separate discussion, if that's okay with you.

WireGuard clears private key material before going to sleep, so that
ephemeral keys never live longer in ram than their expiration date.
This works well for mostly everything, except Android devices where
crazy out-of-tree wireless drivers (such as qcacld) will actually wake
and sleep the phone constantly, for a few milliseconds each wake, to
handle incoming packets. In this case, we must not zero out ephemeral
keys, so that these packets can actually be decrypted. There are no
other systems that have this characteristic, as far as I can tell, and
I'm certainly not willing to add a runtime configuration nob for that,
and it turns out that matching on CONFIG_ANDROID as such does the
right thing all of the time. If the landscape becomes more
complicated, we can visit it, probably in the form of passing reasons
through to pm_notification and related scaffolding. But in lieu of
this infrastructure someday existing, I prefer to do the
simple-and-always-works-anyway solution.

Good point, I need to increment the drop counters there. I'll add
that; good catch.

Willy and I actually discussed around a year ago adding a series of
wireguard-specific error counters for all the various unusual things
that can happen. This is something I'll probably investigate in
earnest post-merge, as it's a bit of a "bell and whistle" thing, and
the existing counters now are already sufficient for most purposes.

Actually Toke, DaveT, and I have agonized quite a bit over the
queueing mechanisms in WireGuard, as well as two GSoC summers looking
at it with students. There's been lots of flent and rrul and tweaking
involved, and the entire queueing system has gone through probably 15
different revisions of trying things out and experimenting. At this
point, I think the way we're doing queueing and when we're dropping,
and those various factors, are taken care of pretty well. Future work
still involves considering shoehorning some fq_codel in a similar way
that wireless does, and a few other tweeks, but I think the current
system is good and stable and very much sufficient.

The particular instance you're pointing out though, with
staged_packet_queue, is not the relevant queue and isn't what you have
in mind with regards to backpressure. This is simply a very short
lived thing for dealing with packets before a handshake is made, and
for handling xmit being used from multiple cores, but it's not _the_
queueing system that's relevant in the actual buffering and latency
calculations.

A little bit of the queueing stuff is discussed in the paper I
presented at Netdev 2.2, if you're interested:
https://www.wireguard.com/papers/wireguard-netdev22.pdf Some of that
is outdated by now, but should give you some idea.

This is on the hot path, actually. Well, it's not on path of data
packets, but I do consider handshake packets to be fairly "warm". I'm
not especially keen on splitting that up into multiple warn_ons,
mostly because if that is ever hint, something is seriously wrong, and
the whole flow would likely then need auditing anyway.
