To enable bifurcated device support, rtnl_lock is released before calling
userspace callbacks and asynchronous requests are enabled.

But these changes caused more issues, like bug #809, #816. To reduce the
scope of the problems, the bifurcated device support related changes are
only enabled when it is requested explicitly with new 'enable_bifurcated'
module parameter.
And bifurcated device support is disabled by default.

So the bifurcated device related problems are isolated and they can be
fixed without impacting all use cases.

Bugzilla ID: 816
Fixes: 631217c76135 ("kni: fix kernel deadlock with bifurcated device")

Calling userspace with semaphore held is still risky and buggy.
There is no guarantee that the userspace DPDK application will be well behaved.
And if it is not, the spinning holding RTNL would break any other network management
functions in the kernel.

These are the kind of problems that make me think it there should be a
big "DO NOT USE THIS" onto KNI. Maybe make it print a big nasty message
(see kernel VFIO without IOMMU description) or mark kernel as tainted??

See: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/KernelStagingPolicy

Something like:

Hi Stephen,

Because of what you described above, we tried the option that releases the RTNL
lock before userspace callback,
That caused a deadlock in the ifdown, and we add a workaround for it.

But now we are facing with two more issues because of the rtnl lock release,
- Bugzilla ID: 816, MAC set cause kernel deadlock
- Some requests are overwritten (because of the workaround we put for ifdown)

This patch just converts the default behavior to what it was previously.
Releasing rtnl lock still supported with the module param, but I think it
is not good idea to make it default while it is know that it is buggy.

@Thomas, @David,
Can it be possible to get this patch for -rc4? Since it has potential
to cause a deadlock in kernel as it is.

I can send a new version with documentation update.

I am for discussing above separate from this patch, since this patch
restores the behavior that exist since KNI module exists.

Is it possible for userspace to choose the correct behavior instead
of module option. Users will do it wrong.

Any user of KNI will already get tainted because KNI is out of tree driver.

To enable bifurcated device support, rtnl_lock is released before calling
userspace callbacks and asynchronous requests are enabled.

But these changes caused more issues, like bug #809, #816. To reduce the
scope of the problems, the bifurcated device support related changes are
only enabled when it is requested explicitly with new 'enable_bifurcated'
module parameter.
And bifurcated device support is disabled by default.

So the bifurcated device related problems are isolated and they can be
fixed without impacting all use cases.

That is why default is changed. If user will use bifurcated driver, user will
know it and need to explicitly request this support.

I don't think there is a way to know automatically which device/interface
will be used with KNI, that is why user config is required.

Right now KNI is with a defect that can cause a deadlock in the kernel with
its default config, that is why I think we should get this fix first for the
release.

I mean the note and explicit 'add_taint()' you mentioned above, can we separate
it from this bug fix.
