Declaring and instantiating BPF ring buffer doesn't require any changes to
libbpf, as it's just another type of maps. So using existing BTF-defined maps
syntax with __uint(type, BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF) and __uint(max_elements,
<size-of-ring-buf>) is all that's necessary to create and use BPF ring buffer.
This patch adds BPF ring buffer consumer to libbpf. It is very similar to
perf_buffer implementation in terms of API, but also attempts to fix some
minor problems and inconveniences with existing perf_buffer API.
ring_buffer support both single ring buffer use case (with just using
ring_buffer__new()), as well as allows to add more ring buffers, each with its
own callback and context. This allows to efficiently poll and consume
multiple, potentially completely independent, ring buffers, using single
epoll instance.
The latter is actually a problem in practice for applications
that are using multiple sets of perf buffers. They have to create multiple
instances for struct perf_buffer and poll them independently or in a loop,
each approach having its own problems (e.g., inability to use a common poll
timeout). struct ring_buffer eliminates this problem by aggregating many
independent ring buffer instances under the single "ring buffer manager".
Second, perf_buffer's callback can't return error, so applications that need
to stop polling due to error in data or data signalling the end, have to use
extra mechanisms to signal that polling has to stop. ring_buffer's callback
can return error, which will be passed through back to user code and can be
acted upon appropariately.
Two APIs allow to consume ring buffer data:
- ring_buffer__poll(), which will wait for data availability notification
and will consume data only from reported ring buffer(s); this API allows
to efficiently use resources by reading data only when it becomes
available;
- ring_buffer__consume(), will attempt to read new records regardless of
data availablity notification sub-system. This API is useful for cases
when lowest latency is required, in expense of burning CPU resources.

This commit adds a new MPSC ring buffer implementation into BPF ecosystem,
which allows multiple CPUs to submit data to a single shared ring buffer. On
the consumption side, only single consumer is assumed.
Motivation
----------
There are two distinctive motivators for this work, which are not satisfied by
existing perf buffer, which prompted creation of a new ring buffer
implementation.
- more efficient memory utilization by sharing ring buffer across CPUs;
- preserving ordering of events that happen sequentially in time, even
across multiple CPUs (e.g., fork/exec/exit events for a task).
These two problems are independent, but perf buffer fails to satisfy both.
Both are a result of a choice to have per-CPU perf ring buffer. Both can be
also solved by having an MPSC implementation of ring buffer. The ordering
problem could technically be solved for perf buffer with some in-kernel
counting, but given the first one requires an MPSC buffer, the same solution
would solve the second problem automatically.
Semantics and APIs
------------------
Single ring buffer is presented to BPF programs as an instance of BPF map of
type BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF. Two other alternatives considered, but ultimately
rejected.
One way would be to, similar to BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY, make
BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF could represent an array of ring buffers, but not enforce
"same CPU only" rule. This would be more familiar interface compatible with
existing perf buffer use in BPF, but would fail if application needed more
advanced logic to lookup ring buffer by arbitrary key. HASH_OF_MAPS addresses
this with current approach. Additionally, given the performance of BPF
ringbuf, many use cases would just opt into a simple single ring buffer shared
among all CPUs, for which current approach would be an overkill.
Another approach could introduce a new concept, alongside BPF map, to
represent generic "container" object, which doesn't necessarily have key/value
interface with lookup/update/delete operations. This approach would add a lot
of extra infrastructure that has to be built for observability and verifier
support. It would also add another concept that BPF developers would have to
familiarize themselves with, new syntax in libbpf, etc. But then would really
provide no additional benefits over the approach of using a map.
BPF_MAP_TYPE_RINGBUF doesn't support lookup/update/delete operations, but so
doesn't few other map types (e.g., queue and stack; array doesn't support
delete, etc).
The approach chosen has an advantage of re-using existing BPF map
infrastructure (introspection APIs in kernel, libbpf support, etc), being
familiar concept (no need to teach users a new type of object in BPF program),
and utilizing existing tooling (bpftool). For common scenario of using
a single ring buffer for all CPUs, it's as simple and straightforward, as
would be with a dedicated "container" object. On the other hand, by being
a map, it can be combined with ARRAY_OF_MAPS and HASH_OF_MAPS map-in-maps to
implement a wide variety of topologies, from one ring buffer for each CPU
(e.g., as a replacement for perf buffer use cases), to a complicated
application hashing/sharding of ring buffers (e.g., having a small pool of
ring buffers with hashed task's tgid being a look up key to preserve order,
but reduce contention).
Key and value sizes are enforced to be zero. max_entries is used to specify
the size of ring buffer and has to be a power of 2 value.
There are a bunch of similarities between perf buffer
(BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERF_EVENT_ARRAY) and new BPF ring buffer semantics:
- variable-length records;
- if there is no more space left in ring buffer, reservation fails, no
blocking;
- memory-mappable data area for user-space applications for ease of
consumption and high performance;
- epoll notifications for new incoming data;
- but still the ability to do busy polling for new data to achieve the
lowest latency, if necessary.
BPF ringbuf provides two sets of APIs to BPF programs:
- bpf_ringbuf_output() allows to *copy* data from one place to a ring
buffer, similarly to bpf_perf_event_output();
- bpf_ringbuf_reserve()/bpf_ringbuf_commit()/bpf_ringbuf_discard() APIs
split the whole process into two steps. First, a fixed amount of space is
reserved. If successful, a pointer to a data inside ring buffer data area
is returned, which BPF programs can use similarly to a data inside
array/hash maps. Once ready, this piece of memory is either committed or
discarded. Discard is similar to commit, but makes consumer ignore the
record.
bpf_ringbuf_output() has disadvantage of incurring extra memory copy, because
record has to be prepared in some other place first. But it allows to submit
records of the length that's not known to verifier beforehand. It also closely
matches bpf_perf_event_output(), so will simplify migration significantly.
bpf_ringbuf_reserve() avoids the extra copy of memory by providing a memory
pointer directly to ring buffer memory. In a lot of cases records are larger
than BPF stack space allows, so many programs have use extra per-CPU array as
a temporary heap for preparing sample. bpf_ringbuf_reserve() avoid this needs
completely. But in exchange, it only allows a known constant size of memory to
be reserved, such that verifier can verify that BPF program can't access
memory outside its reserved record space. bpf_ringbuf_output(), while slightly
slower due to extra memory copy, covers some use cases that are not suitable
for bpf_ringbuf_reserve().
The difference between commit and discard is very small. Discard just marks
a record as discarded, and such records are supposed to be ignored by consumer
code. Discard is useful for some advanced use-cases, such as ensuring
all-or-nothing multi-record submission, or emulating temporary malloc()/free()
within single BPF program invocation.
Each reserved record is tracked by verifier through existing
reference-tracking logic, similar to socket ref-tracking. It is thus
impossible to reserve a record, but forget to submit (or discard) it.
bpf_ringbuf_query() helper allows to query various properties of ring buffer.
Currently 4 are supported:
- BPF_RB_AVAIL_DATA returns amount of unconsumed data in ring buffer;
- BPF_RB_RING_SIZE returns the size of ring buffer;
- BPF_RB_CONS_POS/BPF_RB_PROD_POS returns current logical possition of
consumer/producer, respectively.
Returned values are momentarily snapshots of ring buffer state and could be
off by the time helper returns, so this should be used only for
debugging/reporting reasons or for implementing various heuristics, that take
into account highly-changeable nature of some of those characteristics.
One such heuristic might involve more fine-grained control over poll/epoll
notifications about new data availability in ring buffer. Together with
BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP/BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flags for output/commit/discard helpers,
it allows BPF program a high degree of control and, e.g., more efficient
batched notifications. Default self-balancing strategy, though, should be
adequate for most applications and will work reliable and efficiently already.
Design and implementation
-------------------------
This reserve/commit schema allows a natural way for multiple producers, either
on different CPUs or even on the same CPU/in the same BPF program, to reserve
independent records and work with them without blocking other producers. This
means that if BPF program was interruped by another BPF program sharing the
same ring buffer, they will both get a record reserved (provided there is
enough space left) and can work with it and submit it independently. This
applies to NMI context as well, except that due to using a spinlock during
reservation, in NMI context, bpf_ringbuf_reserve() might fail to get a lock,
in which case reservation will fail even if ring buffer is not full.
The ring buffer itself internally is implemented as a power-of-2 sized
circular buffer, with two logical and ever-increasing counters (which might
wrap around on 32-bit architectures, that's not a problem):
- consumer counter shows up to which logical position consumer consumed the
data;
- producer counter denotes amount of data reserved by all producers.
Each time a record is reserved, producer that "owns" the record will
successfully advance producer counter. At that point, data is still not yet
ready to be consumed, though. Each record has 8 byte header, which contains
the length of reserved record, as well as two extra bits: busy bit to denote
that record is still being worked on, and discard bit, which might be set at
commit time if record is discarded. In the latter case, consumer is supposed
to skip the record and move on to the next one. Record header also encodes
record's relative offset from the beginning of ring buffer data area (in
pages). This allows bpf_ringbuf_commit()/bpf_ringbuf_discard() to accept only
the pointer to the record itself, without requiring also the pointer to ring
buffer itself. Ring buffer memory location will be restored from record
metadata header. This significantly simplifies verifier, as well as improving
API usability.
Producer counter increments are serialized under spinlock, so there is
a strict ordering between reservations. Commits, on the other hand, are
completely lockless and independent. All records become available to consumer
in the order of reservations, but only after all previous records where
already committed. It is thus possible for slow producers to temporarily hold
off submitted records, that were reserved later.
Reservation/commit/consumer protocol is verified by litmus tests in
Documentation/litmus-test/bpf-rb.
One interesting implementation bit, that significantly simplifies (and thus
speeds up as well) implementation of both producers and consumers is how data
area is mapped twice contiguously back-to-back in the virtual memory. This
allows to not take any special measures for samples that have to wrap around
at the end of the circular buffer data area, because the next page after the
last data page would be first data page again, and thus the sample will still
appear completely contiguous in virtual memory. See comment and a simple ASCII
diagram showing this visually in bpf_ringbuf_area_alloc().
Another feature that distinguishes BPF ringbuf from perf ring buffer is
a self-pacing notifications of new data being availability.
bpf_ringbuf_commit() implementation will send a notification of new record
being available after commit only if consumer has already caught up right up
to the record being committed. If not, consumer still has to catch up and thus
will see new data anyways without needing an extra poll notification.
Benchmarks (see tools/testing/selftests/bpf/benchs/bench_ringbuf.c) show that
this allows to achieve a very high throughput without having to resort to
tricks like "notify only every Nth sample", which are necessary with perf
buffer. For extreme cases, when BPF program wants more manual control of
notifications, commit/discard/output helpers accept BPF_RB_NO_WAKEUP and
BPF_RB_FORCE_WAKEUP flags, which give full control over notifications of data
availability, but require extra caution and diligence in using this API.
Comparison to alternatives
--------------------------
Before considering implementing BPF ring buffer from scratch existing
alternatives in kernel were evaluated, but didn't seem to meet the needs. They
largely fell into few categores:
- per-CPU buffers (perf, ftrace, etc), which don't satisfy two motivations
outlined above (ordering and memory consumption);
- linked list-based implementations; while some were multi-producer designs,
consuming these from user-space would be very complicated and most
probably not performant; memory-mapping contiguous piece of memory is
simpler and more performant for user-space consumers;
- io_uring is SPSC, but also requires fixed-sized elements. Naively turning
SPSC queue into MPSC w/ lock would have subpar performance compared to
locked reserve + lockless commit, as with BPF ring buffer. Fixed sized
elements would be too limiting for BPF programs, given existing BPF
programs heavily rely on variable-sized perf buffer already;
- specialized implementations (like a new printk ring buffer, [0]) with lots
of printk-specific limitations and implications, that didn't seem to fit
well for intended use with BPF programs.

The test itself is not particularly useful but it encodes a common
pattern we have.
Namely do a sk storage lookup then depending on data here decide if
we need to do more work or alternatively allow packet to PASS. Then
if we need to do more work consult task_struct for more information
about the running task. Finally based on this additional information
drop or pass the data. In this case the suspicious check is not so
realisitic but it encodes the general pattern and uses the helpers
so we test the workflow.
This is a load test to ensure verifier correctly handles this case.

Often it is useful when applying policy to know something about the
task. If the administrator has CAP_SYS_ADMIN rights then they can
use kprobe + networking hook and link the two programs together to
accomplish this. However, this is a bit clunky and also means we have
to call both the network program and kprobe program when we could just
use a single program and avoid passing metadata through sk_msg/skb->cb,
socket, maps, etc.

Following the introduction of CAP_BPF, and the switch from CAP_SYS_ADMIN
to other capabilities for various BPF features, update the capability
checks (and potentially, drops) in bpftool for feature probes. Because
bpftool and/or the system might not know of CAP_BPF yet, some caution is
necessary:
- If compiled and run on a system with CAP_BPF, check CAP_BPF,
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, CAP_PERFMON, CAP_NET_ADMIN.
- Guard against CAP_BPF being undefined, to allow compiling bpftool from
latest sources on older systems. If the system where feature probes
are run does not know of CAP_BPF, stop checking after CAP_SYS_ADMIN,
as this should be the only capability required for all the BPF
probing.
- If compiled from latest sources on a system without CAP_BPF, but later
executed on a newer system with CAP_BPF knowledge, then we only test
CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Some probes may fail if the bpftool process has
CAP_SYS_ADMIN but misses the other capabilities. The alternative would
be to redefine the value for CAP_BPF in bpftool, but this does not
look clean, and the case sounds relatively rare anyway.
Note that libcap offers a cap_to_name() function to retrieve the name of
a given capability (e.g. "cap_sys_admin"). We do not use it because
deriving the names from the macros looks simpler than using
cap_to_name() (doing a strdup() on the string) + cap_free() + handling
the case of failed allocations, when we just want to use the name of the
capability in an error message.
The checks when compiling without libcap (i.e. root versus non-root) are
unchanged.
v2:
- Do not allocate cap_list dynamically.
- Drop BPF-related capabilities when running with "unprivileged", even
if we didn't have the full set in the first place (in v1, we would
skip dropping them in that case).
- Keep track of what capabilities we have, print the names of the
missing ones for privileged probing.
- Attempt to drop only the capabilities we actually have.
- Rename a couple variables.

dpaa2-eth: add PFC support
This patch set adds support for Priority Flow Control in DPAA2 Ethernet
devices.
The first patch make the necessary changes so that multiple
traffic classes are configured. The dequeue priority
of the maximum 8 traffic classes is configured to be equal.
The second patch adds a static distribution to said traffic
classes based on the VLAN PCP field. In the future, this could be
extended through the .setapp() DCB callback for dynamic configuration.
Also, add support for the congestion group taildrop mechanism that
allows us to control the number of frames that can accumulate on a group
of Rx frame queues belonging to the same traffic class.
The basic subset of the DCB ops is implemented so that the user can
query the number of PFC capable traffic classes, their state and
reconfigure them if necessary.
Changes in v3:
- add patches 6-7 which add the PFC functionality
- patch 2/7: revert to explicitly cast mask to u16 * to not get into
sparse warnings
Changes in v4:
- really fix the sparse warnings in 2/7

Leave congestion group taildrop enabled for all traffic classes
when PFC is enabled. Notification threshold is low enough such
that it will be hit first and this also ensures that FQs on
traffic classes which are not PFC enabled won't drain the buffer
pool.
FQ taildrop threshold is kept disabled as long as any form of
flow control is on. Since FQ taildrop works with bytes, not number
of frames, we can't guarantee it will not interfere with the
congestion notification mechanism for all frame sizes.

Add support in dpaa2-eth for PFC (Priority Flow Control)
through the DCB ops.
Instruct the hardware to respond to received PFC frames.
Current firmware doesn't allow us to selectively enable PFC
on the Rx side for some priorities only, so we will react to
all incoming PFC frames (and stop transmitting on the traffic
classes specified in the frame).
Also, configure the hardware to generate PFC frames based on Rx
congestion notifications. When a certain number of frames accumulate in
the ingress queues corresponding to a traffic class, priority flow
control frames are generated for that TC.
The number of PFC traffic classes available can be queried through
lldptool. Also, which of those traffic classes have PFC enabled is also
controlled through the same dcbnl_rtnl_ops callbacks.

Now that we have congestion group taildrop configured at all
times, we can afford to increase the frame queue taildrop
threshold; this will ensure a better response when receiving
bursts of large-sized frames.
Also decouple the buffer pool count from the Rx FQ taildrop
threshold, as above change would increase it too much. Instead,
keep the old count as a hardcoded value.
With the new limits, we try to ensure that:
* we allow enough leeway for large frame bursts (by buffering
enough of them in queues to avoid heavy dropping in case of
bursty traffic, but when overall ingress bandwidth is manageable)
* allow pending frames to be evenly spread between ingress FQs,
regardless of frame size
* avoid dropping frames due to the buffer pool being empty; this
is not a bad behaviour per se, but system overall response is
more linear and predictable when frames are dropped at frame
queue/group level.

The increase in number of ingress frame queues means we now risk
depleting the buffer pool before the FQ taildrop kicks in.
Congestion group taildrop allows us to control the number of frames that
can accumulate on a group of Rx frame queues belonging to the same
traffic class. This setting coexists with the frame queue based
taildrop: whichever limit gets hit first triggers the frame drop.

Ensure the link layer header lies in linear as eth_type_trans pulls
ETH_HLEN. Then take the same code paths for frags as for not frags.
Push the link layer header back just before calling napi_gro_frags.
By pulling up to ETH_HLEN from frag0 into linear, this disables the

bridge: mrp: Add support for MRA role
This patch series extends the MRP with the MRA role.
A node that has the MRA role can behave as a MRM or as a MRC. In case there are
multiple nodes in the topology that has the MRA role then only one node can
behave as MRM and all the others need to be have as MRC. The node that has the
higher priority(lower value) will behave as MRM.
A node that has the MRA role and behaves as MRC, it just needs to forward the
MRP_Test frames between the ring ports but also it needs to detect in case it
stops receiving MRP_Test frames. In that case it would try to behave as MRM.

A node that has the MRA role, it can behave as MRM or MRC.
Initially it starts as MRM and sends MRP_Test frames on both ring ports.
If it detects that there are MRP_Test send by another MRM, then it
checks if these frames have a lower priority than itself. In this case
it would send MRP_Nack frames to notify the other node that it needs to
stop sending MRP_Test frames.
If it receives a MRP_Nack frame then it stops sending MRP_Test frames
and starts to behave as a MRC but it would continue to monitor the
MRP_Test frames send by MRM. If at a point the MRM stops to send
MRP_Test frames it would get the MRM role and start to send MRP_Test
frames.

The fl_flow_key structure is around 500 bytes, so having two of them

otherwise correct change:

I suspect the fl_classify function could be reworked to only have one
of them on the stack and modify it in place, but I could not work out
how to do that.
As a somewhat hacky workaround, move one of them into an out-of-line
function to reduce its scope. This does not necessarily reduce the stack
usage of the outer function, but at least the second copy is removed
from the stack during most of it and does not add up to whatever is
called from there.
I now see 552 bytes of stack usage for fl_classify(), plus 528 bytes
for fl_mask_lookup().

Microchip lan7431 is frequently connected to a phy. However, it
can also be directly connected to a MII remote peer without
any phy in between. For supporting such a phyless hardware setup
in Linux we utilized phylib, which supports a fixed-link
configuration via the device tree. And we added support for
defining the connection type R/GMII in the device tree.
New behavior:
-------------
. The automatic speed and duplex detection of the lan743x silicon
between mac and phy is disabled. Instead phylib is used like in
other typical Linux drivers. The usage of phylib allows to
specify fixed-link parameters in the device tree.
. The device tree entry phy-connection-type is supported now with
the modes RGMII or (G)MII (default).
Development state:
------------------
. Tested with fixed-phy configurations. Not yet tested in normal
configurations with phy. Microchip kindly offered testing
as soon as the Corona measures allow this.
. All review findings of Andrew Lunn are included
Example:
--------
&pcie {
status = "okay";
host@0 {
reg = <0 0 0 0 0>;
#address-cells = <3>;
#size-cells = <2>;
ethernet@0 {

status = "okay";
reg = <0 0 0 0 0>;

devlink: Add support for control packet traps
So far device drivers were only able to register drop and exception
packet traps with devlink. These traps are used for packets that were
either dropped by the underlying device or encountered an exception
(e.g., missing neighbour entry) during forwarding.
However, in the steady state, the majority of the packets being trapped
to the CPU are packets that are required for the correct functioning of
the control plane. For example, ARP request and IGMP query packets.
This patch set allows device drivers to register such control traps with
devlink and expose their default control plane policy to user space.
User space can then tune the packet trap policer settings according to
its needs, as with existing packet traps.
In a similar fashion to exception traps, the action associated with such
traps cannot be changed as it can easily break the control plane. Unlike
drop and exception traps, packets trapped via control traps are not
reported to the kernel's drop monitor as they are not indicative of any
problem.
Patch set overview:
Patches #1-#3 break out layer 3 exceptions to a different group to
provide better granularity. A future patch set will make this completely
configurable.
Patch #4 adds a new trap action ('mirror') that is used for packets that
are forwarded by the device and sent to the CPU. Such packets are marked
by device drivers with 'skb->offload_fwd_mark = 1' in order to prevent
the kernel from forwarding them again.
Patch #5 adds the new trap type, 'control'.
Patches #6-#8 gradually add various control traps to devlink with proper
documentation.
Patch #9 adds a few control traps to netdevsim, which are automatically
exercised by existing devlink-trap selftest.
Patches #10 performs small refactoring in mlxsw.
Patches #11-#13 change mlxsw to register its existing control traps with
devlink.
Patch #14 adds a selftest over mlxsw that exercises all the registered
control traps.

We currently have an Rx listener function for exception traps that marks
received skbs with 'offload_fwd_mark' and injects them to the kernel's
Rx path. The marking is done because all these exceptions occur during
L3 forwarding, after the packets were potentially flooded at L2.
A subsequent patch will add support for control traps. Packets received
via some of these control traps need different handling:
1. Packets might not need to be marked with 'offload_fwd_mark'. For
example, if packet was trapped before L2 forwarding
2. Packets might not need to be injected to the kernel's Rx path. For
example, sampled packets are reported to user space via the psample
module
Factor out a common Rx listener function that only reports trapped
packets to devlink. Call it from mlxsw_sp_rx_no_mark_listener() and
mlxsw_sp_rx_mark_listener() that will inject the packets to the kernel's
Rx path, without and with the marking, respectively.
