40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-05-01
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
The theme of this series is code reduction, with several code cleanups in
this series. Starting with Neerav's removal of the code that implemented
the HMC AQ APIs and calls, since they are now obsolete and not supported
by firmware.
Anjali changes the default of VFs to make sure they are not trusted or
privileged until its explicitly set for trust through the new NDO op
interface. Also limited the number of MAC and VLAN addresses a VF can
add if it is untrusted/privileged.
Carolyn syncs the VF code for the changes made to the PF for the RSS
hash tuple settings, which ends up cleaning up much of the existing code.
Jesse cleans up compiler warnings which were found with gcc's W=2 option.
Then removed duplicate code, especially since only one copy was actually
being used.
Jacob addresses an issue which was found when testing GCC 6's which
happens to produce new warnings when you left shift a signed value
beyond the storage sizeof the type. The converts i40e & i40evf to use
the BIT() macro more consistently.
Alex actually bucks the trend of code removal by adding support for
both drivers to use GSO_PARTIAL so that segmentation of frames with
checksums enabled in outer headers is supported. Fortunately it does
not take much to add this support!

sctp: signal sk_data_ready earlier on data chunks reception
Dave Miller pointed out that fb586f25300f ("sctp: delay calls to
sk_data_ready() as much as possible") may insert latency specially if
the receiving application is running on another CPU and that it would be
better if we signalled as early as possible.
This patch thus basically inverts the logic on fb586f25300f and signals
it as early as possible, similar to what we had before.

mdio_bus: Fix MDIO bus scanning in __mdiobus_register()
Since commit b74766a0a0fe ("phylib: don't return NULL
from get_phy_device()") in linux-next, phy_get_device() will return
ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) instead of NULL if the PHY device ID is all ones.
This causes problem with stmmac driver and likely some other drivers
which call mdiobus_register(). I triggered this bug on SoCFPGA MCVEVK
board with linux-next 20160427 and 20160428. In case of the stmmac, if
there is no PHY node specified in the DT for the stmmac block, the stmmac
driver ( drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_mdio.c function
stmmac_mdio_register() ) will call mdiobus_register() , which will
register the MDIO bus and probe for the PHY.
The mdiobus_register() resp. __mdiobus_register() iterates over all of
the addresses on the MDIO bus and calls mdiobus_scan() for each of them,
which invokes get_phy_device(). Before the aforementioned patch, the
mdiobus_scan() would return NULL if no PHY was found on a given address
and mdiobus_register() would continue and try the next PHY address. Now,
mdiobus_scan() returns ERR_PTR(-ENODEV), which is caught by the
'if (IS_ERR(phydev))' condition and the loop exits immediately if the
PHY address does not contain PHY.
Repair this by explicitly checking for the ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) and if this
error comes around, continue with the next PHY address.

====================
Mellanox 100G mlx5 ethernet aRFS support
This series adds accelerated RFS support for the mlx5e driver.
I have added one patch non-related to aRFS that fixes the rtnl_lock
warning mlx5 driver been getting since b7aade15485a ('vxlan: break dependency with netdev drivers')
aRFS support in details:
A direct TIR per RQ is now required in order to have the essential building blocks
for aRFS. Today the driver has one direct TIR that forwards traffic to RQ[0] (core 0),
and one indirect TIR for RSS indirection table. For that we've added one direct TIR
per RQ, e.g.: TIR[i] -> RQ[i] (core i).
Publicize Modify flow rule destination and reveal it in flow steering API, to have the
ability to dynamically modify the destination TIR(core) for aRFS rules from the
ethernet driver.
Initializing CPU reverse mapping to notify upper layer on internal receive queue cpu
mappings.
Some design refactoring for mlx5e ethernet driver flow tables and flow steering API.
Now the caller of create_flow_table can choose the level of the flow table, this way
we will create the mlx5e flow tables in a reversed order and connect them as we go,
we create flow table[i+1] before flow table[i] to be able to set flow table[i + 1] as
a destination of flow table[i] once flow table[i] is created.
also we have split the main flow table in the following manner:
- From before: RX packet had to visit two flow tables until it is delivered to its receive queue:
RX packet -> vlan filter flow table -> main flow table.
> vlan filter will check the packet vlan field is allowed.
> main flow will check if the dest mac is allowed and will check the l3/l4 headers to
retrieve the RSS hash for steering the packet into its final receive queue.
- Now main flow table is split into l2 dst mac steering table and ttc (traffic type classifier) table:
RX packet -> vlan filter -> l2 table -> ttc table
> vlan filter - same as before
> L2 filter - filter packets according their destination mac address
> ttc table - classify packet headers for RSS steering
- L3/L4 classification rules to steer the packet according to thier headers hash
- in case of none of the rules applies the packet is steered to RQ[0]
After the above refactoring all left to-do is to create aRFS flow table which will manage
aRFS steering rules to forward traffic to the desired RQ (core) and just connect the ttc
table rules destinations to aRFS flow table.
aRFS flow table in case of a miss will deliver the traffic to the core where the original
ttc hash would have chosen.
TTC table is not initialized and enabled until the user explicitly asks to, i.e. setting the NETIF_F_NTUPLE
to ON. This way there is no need for ttc table to forward traffic to aRFS table unless required.
When setting back to OFF aRFS flow table is disabled and disconnected.

Currently, the main flow table is used for two purposes:
One is to do mac filtering and the other is to classify

This design is very complex, for each configured mac address we
have to add eleven rules (rule for each traffic type), the same if the
device is put to promiscuous/allmulti mode.
This scheme isn't scalable for future features like aRFS.
In order to simplify it, the main flow table is split to two flow
tables:
1. l2 table - filter the packet dmac address, if there is a match
we forward to the ttc flow table.
2. TTC (Traffic Type Classifier) table - classify the traffic

ppp: add rtnetlink support
PPP devices lack the ability to be customised at creation time. In
particular they can't be created in a given netns or with a particular
name. Moving or renaming the device after creation is possible, but
creates undesirable transient effects on servers where PPP devices are
constantly created and removed, as users connect and disconnect.
Implementing rtnetlink support solves this problem.
The rtnetlink handlers implemented in this series are minimal, and can
only replace the PPPIOCNEWUNIT ioctl. The rest of PPP ioctls remains
necessary for any other operation on channels and units.
It is perfectly possible to mix PPP devices created by rtnl
and by ioctl(PPPIOCNEWUNIT). Devices will behave in the same way.
mutex_trylock() is used to resolve the locking issue wrt. locking
dependency between rtnl_lock() and ppp_mutex (see ppp_nl_newlink() in
patch #2).
A user visible difference brought by this series is that old PPP
interfaces (those created with ioctl(PPPIOCNEWUNIT)), can now be

- Rebase on net-next.
- Not an RFC anymore.
Changes since v2:
- Define ->rtnl_link_ops for ioctl based PPP devices, so they can

- Move back to original lock ordering between ppp_mutex and rtnl_lock

Define PPP device handler for use with rtnetlink.
The only PPP specific attribute is IFLA_PPP_DEV_FD. It is mandatory and
contains the file descriptor of the associated /dev/ppp instance (the
file descriptor which would have been used for ioctl(PPPIOCNEWUNIT) in
the ioctl-based API). The PPP device is removed when this file
descriptor is released (same behaviour as with ioctl based PPP
devices).
PPP devices created with the rtnetlink API behave like the ones created
with ioctl(PPPIOCNEWUNIT). In particular existing ioctls work the same
way, no matter how the PPP device was created.
The rtnl callbacks are also assigned to ioctl based PPP devices. This
way, rtnl messages have the same effect on any PPP devices.
The immediate effect is that all PPP devices, even ioctl-based
ones, can now be removed with "ip link del".
A minor difference still exists between ioctl and rtnl based PPP
interfaces: in the device name, the number following the "ppp" prefix
corresponds to the PPP unit number for ioctl based devices, while it is
just an unrelated incrementing index for rtnl ones.

vxlan: fix initialization with custom link parameters
Commit 0c867c9bf84c ("vxlan: move Ethernet initialization to a separate
function") changed initialization order and as an unintended result, when the
user specifies additional link parameters (such as IFLA_ADDRESS) while
creating vxlan interface, those are overwritten by vxlan_ether_setup later.
It's necessary to call ether_setup from withing the ->setup callback. That
way, the correct parameters are set by rtnl_create_link later. This is done
also for VXLAN-GPE, as we don't know the interface type yet at that point,
and changed to the correct interface type later.

net: dsa: Provide CPU port statistics to master netdev
This patch overloads the DSA master netdev, aka CPU Ethernet MAC to also
include switch-side statistics, which is useful for debugging purposes,
when the switch is not properly connected to the Ethernet MAC (duplex
mismatch, (RG)MII electrical issues etc.).
We accomplish this by retaining the original copy of the master netdev's
ethtool_ops, and just overload the 3 operations we care about:
get_sset_count, get_strings and get_ethtool_stats so as to intercept
these calls and call into the original master_netdev ethtool_ops, plus
our own.
We take this approach as opposed to providing a set of DSA helper
functions that would retrive the CPU port's statistics, because the
entire purpose of DSA is to allow unmodified Ethernet MAC drivers to be
used as CPU conduit interfaces, therefore, statistics overlay in such
drivers would simply not scale.
The new ethtool -S <iface> output would therefore look like this now:
<iface> statistics

tcp: give prequeue mode some care
TCP prequeue goal is to defer processing of incoming packets
to user space thread currently blocked in a recvmsg() system call.
Intent is to spend less time processing these packets on behalf
of softirq handler, as softirq handler is unfair to normal process
scheduler decisions, as it might interrupt threads that do not
even use networking.
Current prequeue implementation has following issues :
1) It only checks size of the prequeue against sk_rcvbuf
It was fine 15 years ago when sk_rcvbuf was in the 64KB vicinity.
But we now have ~8MB values to cope with modern networking needs.
We have to add sk_rmem_alloc in the equation, since out of order
packets can definitely use up to sk_rcvbuf memory themselves.
2) Even with a fixed memory truesize check, prequeue can be filled
by thousands of packets. When prequeue needs to be flushed, either
from sofirq context (in tcp_prequeue() or timer code), or process
context (in tcp_prequeue_process()), this adds a latency spike
which is often not desirable.
I added a fixed limit of 32 packets, as this translated to a max
flush time of 60 us on my test hosts.
Also note that all packets in prequeue are not accounted for tcp_mem,
since they are not charged against sk_forward_alloc at this point.
This is probably not a big deal.
Note that this might increase LINUX_MIB_TCPPREQUEUEDROPPED counts,
which is misnamed, as packets are not dropped at all, but rather pushed
to the stack (where they can be either consumed or dropped)

~ The first 3 patches are bug fixes. The fixes in this

~ The test results are based on the recently posted net fix:
"tcp: Fix SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK when handling dup acks"
One potential use case is to use MSG_EOR with
SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK to get a more accurate
TCP ack timestamping on application protocol with
multiple outgoing response messages (e.g. HTTP2).
One of our use case is at the webserver. The webserver tracks
the HTTP2 response latency by measuring when the webserver sends
the first byte to the socket till the TCP ACK of the last byte
is received. In the cases where we don't have client side
measurement, measuring from the server side is the only option.
In the cases we have the client side measurement, the server side
data can also be used to justify/cross-check-with the client
side data.
