mac80211: allow using AP_LINK_PS with mac80211-generated TIM IE
In 46fa38e84b65 ("mac80211: allow software PS-Poll/U-APSD with
AP_LINK_PS"), Johannes allowed to use mac80211's code for handling
stations that go to PS or send PS-Poll / uAPSD trigger frames for
devices that enable RSS.
This means that mac80211 doesn't look at frames anymore but rather
relies on a notification that will come from the device when a PS
transition occurs or when a PS-Poll / trigger frame is detected by
the device.
iwlwifi will need this capability but still needs mac80211 to take
care of the TIM IE. Today, if a driver sets AP_LINK_PS, mac80211
will not update the TIM IE. Change mac80211 to check existence of
the set_tim driver callback rather than using AP_LINK_PS to decide
if the driver handles the TIM IE internally or not.

mac80211: allow driver to handle packet-loss mechanism
Based on consecutive msdu failures, mac80211 triggers CQM packet-loss
mechanism. Drivers like ath10k that have its own connection monitoring
algorithm, offloaded to firmware for triggering station kickout. In case
of station kickout, driver will report low ack status by mac80211 API
(ieee80211_report_low_ack).
This flag will enable the driver to completely rely on firmware events
for station kickout and bypass mac80211 packet loss mechanism.

The ability to change the max_rx_aggregation frames is useful

There exist some devices (latest mobile phones and some AP's)

These devices won't respect the AMPDU size that was negotiated during
association (even though they do respect the maximal number of packets).
This violation is characterized by a valid number of packets in
a single AMPDU. Even so, the total size will exceed the size negotiated
during association.
Eventually, this will cause some undefined behavior, which in turn
causes the hw to drop packets, causing the throughput to plummet.
This patch will make the subframe limitation to be held by each station,

Merge branch 'vrf-tx-hook'
David Ahern says:
====================
net: Convert vrf to tx hook
The motivation for this series is that ICMP Unreachable - Fragmentation
Needed packets are not handled properly for VRFs. Specifically, the
FIB lookup in __ip_rt_update_pmtu fails so no nexthop exception is
created with the reduced MTU. As a result connections stall if packets
larger than the smallest MTU in the path are generated.
While investigating that problem I also noticed that the MSS for all
connections in a VRF is based on the VRF device's MTU and not the
route the packets ultimately go through. VRF currently uses a dst
to direct packets to the device. The first FIB lookup returns this dst
and then the lookup in the VRF driver gets the actual output route. A
side effect of this design is that the VRF dst is cached on sockets
and then used for calculations like the MSS.
This series fixes this problem by removing the hook in the FIB lookups
that returns the dst pointing to the VRF device to the VRF and always
doing the actual FIB lookup. This allows the real dst to be used
throughout the stack (for example the MSS). Packets are diverted to
the VRF device on Tx using an l3mdev hook in the output path similar to
to what is done for Rx. The end result is a simpler implementation for
VRF with fewer intrusions into the network stack and symmetrical packet
handling for Rx and Tx paths.
Comparison of netperf performance for a build without l3mdev (best case
performance), the old vrf driver and the VRF driver from this series.
Data are collected using VMs with virtio + vhost. The netperf client
runs in the VM and netserver runs in the host. 1-byte RR tests are done
as these packets exaggerate the performance hit due to the extra lookups
done for l3mdev and VRF.

1. 'no l3mdev' == NET_L3_MASTER_DEV is unset so code is compiled out
2. 'vrf old' == data for existing implementation
3. 'vrf new' == data with this series
4. 'l3mdev, no vrf' == NET_L3_MASTER_DEV is enabled but traffic is not
going through a VRF
About the series
- patch 1 adds the flow update (changing oif or iif to L3 master device
and setting the flag to skip the oif check) to ipv4 and ipv6 paths just
before hitting the rules. This catches all code paths in a single spot.
- patch 2 adds the Tx hook to push the packet to the l3mdev if relevant
- patch 3 adds some checks so the vrf device can act as a vrf-local
loopback. These changes were not needed before since the vrf dst was
returned from the lookup.
- patches 4 and 5 flip the ipv4 and ipv6 stacks to the tx hook leaving
the route lookup to be the real one. The dst flip happens at the
beginning of the L3 output path so the VRFs can have device based
features such as netfilter, tc and tcpdump.
- patches 6-11 remove no longer needed l3mdev code
v2
- properly handle IPv6 link scope addresses
- keep the device xmit path and associated dst which is switched in by
the l3_out hook. packets still need to go through the xmit path in
case the user puts a qdisc on the vrf device and to allow tc rules.
version 1 short circuited the tx handling and only covered netfilter
and tcpdump.

This series from Mohamad improves the driver load/unload flows
to seamlessly handle pci errors and device internal errors recovery
reset flows.
Current pci and internal error handling is too heavy and is done
with a full restart of the driver by unregistering mlx5 interfaces
(mlx5e netedevs and mlx5_ib) which will cause losing all the current
interfaces and mlx5 core configurations.
To improve this, we add new callback functions of mlx5 interface
object (attach/detach) to be called upon reset flows when errors are
detected rather than calling register and unregister interfaces.
On their side, interfaces such as (mlx5e and mlx5_ib) can choose to implement
those callback, if not, the old heavy reset will be called for that interface.
For non-interface mlx5 modules such as sriov and eswitch, we refactored
and reorganized the code in a way that the software state objects are created
only once on driver load. Those software state objects are kept upon reset recovery
flows and only freed once on driver unload. On seamless soft reset flows, only
hardware resources are released on stop and re-allocated on start according to the
current soft state.
In this series only mlx5e interface implements attach/detach callbacks
so that the netdevice will be kept alive on reset. On detach only hardware resources
are released and the netdevice will be marked as detached to the stack. Once
attached again it will re-allocate the hardware resources according to the current
netdevice state, and all the configurations and the software state will be kept or restored
after recovery.
Note: I will be out of office all next week, in case of any updates
or V2 is required, Tariq will post the new series, I hope it is ok.

net: fs_enet: don't unmap DMA when packet len is below copybreak
When the length of the packet is below the defined copybreak limit,
the received packet is copied into a newly allocated skb in order
to reuse the skb. This is only interesting if it allow us to avoid
a new DMA mapping. We shall therefore not DMA unmap and remap the
skb->data. Instead, we invalidate the cache
with dma_sync_single_for_cpu() once the received data has been
copied into the new skb.
The following measures have been obtained on a mpc885 running at 132Mhz.
Measurement is done using the timebase with packets sent to the target
with 'ping -s 1' (packet len is 60):
* Without this patch: 182 TB ticks
* With this patch: 143 TB ticks
As a comparison, if we set the copybreak limit to 0, then we get
148 TB ticks. It means that without this patch, duration is even
worse when copying received data to a new skb instead of
allocating a new skb for next packet to be received

Initially, a NAPI TX routine has been implemented separately from
NAPI RX, as done on the freescale/gianfar driver.
By merging NAPI RX and NAPI TX, we reduce the amount of TX completion
interrupts.
Handling of the budget in association with TX interrupts is based on
indications provided at https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/napi
We never proceed more than the complete TX ring on a single run.
At the same time, we fix an issue in the handling of fep->tx_free:
It is only when fep->tx_free goes up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS that
we need to wake up the queue. There is no need to call
netif_wake_queue() at every packet successfully transmitted.

====================
net/sched: ip tunnel metadata set/release/classify by using TC
This patchset introduces ip tunnel manipulation support using the TC subsystem.
In the decap flow, it enables the user to redirect packets from a shared tunnel
device and classify by outer and inner headers. The outer headers are extracted
from the metadata and used by the flower filter. A new action act_tunnel_key,
releases the metadata.
In the encap flow, act_tunnel_key creates a metadata object to be used by the
shared tunnel device. The actual redirection to the tunnel device is done using
act_mirred.
For example:
$ tc qdisc add dev vnet0 ingress
$ tc filter add dev vnet0 protocol ip parent ffff: \

ip_proto 1 \
action tunnel_key set \
src_ip 11.11.0.1 \

bpf: add BPF_CALL_x macros for declaring helpers
This work adds BPF_CALL_<n>() macros and converts all the eBPF helper functions
to use them, in a similar fashion like we do with SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>() macros
that are used today. Motivation for this is to hide all the register handling
and all necessary casts from the user, so that it is done automatically in the
background when adding a BPF_CALL_<n>() call.
This makes current helpers easier to review, eases to write future helpers,
avoids getting the casting mess wrong, and allows for extending all helpers at
once (f.e. build time checks, etc). It also helps detecting more easily in
code reviews that unused registers are not instrumented in the code by accident,
breaking compatibility with existing programs.
BPF_CALL_<n>() internals are quite similar to SYSCALL_DEFINE<n>() ones with some
fundamental differences, for example, for generating the actual helper function
that carries all u64 regs, we need to fill unused regs, so that we always end up
with 5 u64 regs as an argument.
I reviewed several 0-5 generated BPF_CALL_<n>() variants of the .i results and
they look all as expected. No sparse issue spotted. We let this also sit for a
few days with Fengguang's kbuild test robot, and there were no issues seen. On
s390, it barked on the "uses dynamic stack allocation" notice, which is an old
one from bpf_perf_event_output{,_tp}() reappearing here due to the conversion
to the call wrapper, just telling that the perf raw record/frag sits on stack
(gcc with s390's -mwarn-dynamicstack), but that's all. Did various runtime tests
and they were fine as well. All eBPF helpers are now converted to use these
macros, getting rid of a good chunk of all the raw castings.
