While looking into an MTU issue with sfc, I started noticing that almost
every NIC driver with an ndo_change_mtu function implemented almost
exactly the same range checks, and in many cases, that was the only
practical thing their ndo_change_mtu function was doing. Quite a few
drivers have either 68, 64, 60 or 46 as their minimum MTU value checked,
and then various sizes from 1500 to 65535 for their maximum MTU value. We
can remove a whole lot of redundant code here if we simple store min_mtu
and max_mtu in net_device, and check against those in net/core/dev.c's
dev_set_mtu().
In theory, there should be zero functional change with this patch, it just
puts the infrastructure in place. Subsequent patches will attempt to start
using said infrastructure, with theoretically zero change in
functionality.

Introduce new rtnl UAPI that exposes a list of vlans per VF, giving
the ability for user-space application to specify it for the VF, as an
option to support 802.1ad.
We adjusted IP Link tool to support this option.
For future use cases, the new UAPI supports multiple vlans. For now we
limit the list size to a single vlan in kernel.
Add IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST in addition to IFLA_VF_VLAN to keep backward
compatibility with older versions of IP Link tool.
Add a vlan protocol parameter to the ndo_set_vf_vlan callback.
We kept 802.1Q as the drivers' default vlan protocol.
Suitable ip link tool command examples:
Set vf vlan protocol 802.1ad:
ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad
Set vf to VST (802.1Q) mode:
ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1Q
Or by omitting the new parameter
ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100

fdb dumps spanning multiple skb's currently restart from the first
interface again for every skb. This results in unnecessary
iterations on the already visited interfaces and their fdb
entries. In large scale setups, we have seen this to slow
down fdb dumps considerably. On a system with 30k macs we
see fdb dumps spanning across more than 300 skbs.
To fix the problem, this patch replaces the existing single fdb
marker with three markers: netdev hash entries, netdevs and fdb
index to continue where we left off instead of restarting from the
first netdev. This is consistent with link dumps.
In the process of fixing the performance issue, this patch also
re-implements fix done by
commit 472681d57a ("net: ndo_fdb_dump should report -EMSGSIZE to rtnl_fdb_dump")
(with an internal fix from Wilson Kok) in the following ways:
- change ndo_fdb_dump handlers to return error code instead
of the last fdb index
- use cb->args strictly for dump frag markers and not error codes.
This is consistent with other dump functions.
Below results were taken on a system with 1000 netdevs
and 35085 fdb entries:
before patch:
$time bridge fdb show | wc -l

switchdev_port_fwd_mark_set() is used to set the 'offload_fwd_mark' of
port netdevs so that packets being flooded by the device won't be
flooded twice.
It works by assigning a unique identifier (the ifindex of the first
bridge port) to bridge ports sharing the same parent ID. This prevents
packets from being flooded twice by the same switch, but will flood
packets through bridge ports belonging to a different switch.
This method is problematic when stacked devices are taken into account,
such as VLANs. In such cases, a physical port netdev can have upper
devices being members in two different bridges, thus requiring two
different 'offload_fwd_mark's to be configured on the port netdev, which
is impossible.
The main problem is that packet and netdev marking is performed at the
physical netdev level, whereas flooding occurs between bridge ports,
which are not necessarily port netdevs.
Instead, packet and netdev marking should really be done in the bridge
driver with the switch driver only telling it which packets it already
forwarded. The bridge driver will mark such packets using the mark
assigned to the ingress bridge port and will prevent the packet from
being forwarded through any bridge port sharing the same mark (i.e.
having the same parent ID).
Remove the current switchdev 'offload_fwd_mark' implementation and
instead implement the proposed method. In addition, make rocker - the
sole user of the mark - use the proposed method.

The idea for type_check in dev_get_nest_level() was to count the number
of nested devices of the same type (currently, only macvlan or vlan
devices).
This prevented the false positive lockdep warning on configurations such
as:
eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0 <--- macvlan1
However, this doesn't prevent a warning on a configuration such as:
eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0
eth1 <--- vlan1 <--- macvlan1
In this case, all the locks end up with a nesting subclass of 1, so
lockdep thinks that there is still a deadlock:
- in the first case we have (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) and then
take (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1)
- in the second case, we have (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) and then
take (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1)
By removing the linktype check in dev_get_nest_level() and always
incrementing the nesting depth, lockdep considers this configuration
valid.

Convert the per-device linked list into a hashtable. The primary
motivation for this change is that currently, we're not tracking all the
qdiscs in hierarchy (e.g. excluding default qdiscs), as the lookup
performed over the linked list by qdisc_match_from_root() is rather
expensive.
The ultimate goal is to get rid of hidden qdiscs completely, which will

This patch merges the notifiers for VXLAN and GENEVE into a single UDP
tunnel notifier. The idea is that we will want to only have to make one
notifier call to receive the list of ports for VXLAN and GENEVE tunnels
that need to be offloaded.
In addition we add a new set of ndo functions named ndo_udp_tunnel_add and
ndo_udp_tunnel_del that are meant to allow us to track the tunnel meta-data
such as port and address family as tunnels are added and removed. The
tunnel meta-data is now transported in a structure named udp_tunnel_info
which for now carries the type, address family, and port number. In the
future this could be updated so that we can include a tuple of values
including things such as the destination IP address and other fields.
I also ended up going with a naming scheme that consisted of using the
prefix udp_tunnel on function names. I applied this to the notifier and
ndo ops as well so that it hopefully points to the fact that these are
primarily used in the udp_tunnel functions.

SCTP has this pecualiarity that its packets cannot be just segmented to
(P)MTU. Its chunks must be contained in IP segments, padding respected.
So we can't just generate a big skb, set gso_size to the fragmentation
point and deliver it to IP layer.
This patch takes a different approach. SCTP will now build a skb as it
would be if it was received using GRO. That is, there will be a cover
skb with protocol headers and children ones containing the actual
segments, already segmented to a way that respects SCTP RFCs.
With that, we can tell skb_segment() to just split based on frag_list,
trusting its sizes are already in accordance.
This way SCTP can benefit from GSO and instead of passing several
packets through the stack, it can pass a single large packet.
v2:
- Added support for receiving GSO frames, as requested by Dave Miller.
- Clear skb->cb if packet is GSO (otherwise it's not used by SCTP)
- Added heuristics similar to what we have in TCP for not generating
single GSO packets that fills cwnd.
v3:
- consider sctphdr size in skb_gso_transport_seglen()
- rebased due to 5c7cdf339a ("gso: Remove arbitrary checks for

Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device
to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer
means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds
overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index
more complicated than necessary.
This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK
for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device
trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver
in the future.
dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb
with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current

Fix casting in net_gso_ok. Otherwise the shift on

a INT_MIN, which is then promoted from signed to uint64 which is
0xffffffff80000000, resulting in wrong behavior when it is and'ed with
the feature itself, as in:
This test app:
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
uint64_t feature1;
uint64_t feature2;
int gso_type = 1 << 15;
feature1 = gso_type << 16;
feature2 = (uint64_t)gso_type << 16;
printf("%lx %lx\n", feature1, feature2);
return 0;
}
Gives:
ffffffff80000000 80000000
So that this:
return (features & feature) == feature;
Actually works on more bits than expected and invalid ones.

long and using specialized event types for this purpose seemed to be a
more elegant way. This also comes in beneficial if in future we want to
add offloading knobs for vxlan.

This patch adds support for something I am referring to as GSO partial.
The basic idea is that we can support a broader range of devices for
segmentation if we use fixed outer headers and have the hardware only
really deal with segmenting the inner header. The idea behind the naming
is due to the fact that everything before csum_start will be fixed headers,
and everything after will be the region that is handled by hardware.
With the current implementation it allows us to add support for the
following GSO types with an inner TSO_MANGLEID or TSO6 offload:
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE
NETIF_F_GSO_GRE_CSUM
NETIF_F_GSO_IPIP
NETIF_F_GSO_SIT
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL
NETIF_F_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM
In the case of hardware that already supports tunneling we may be able to
extend this further to support TSO_TCPV4 without TSO_MANGLEID if the
hardware can support updating inner IPv4 headers.

This patch does two things.
First it allows TCP to aggregate TCP frames with a fixed IPv4 ID field. As
a result we should now be able to aggregate flows that were converted from
IPv6 to IPv4. In addition this allows us more flexibility for future
implementations of segmentation as we may be able to use a fixed IP ID when
segmenting the flow.
The second thing this does is that it places limitations on the outer IPv4
ID header in the case of tunneled frames. Specifically it forces the IP ID
to be incrementing by 1 unless the DF bit is set in the outer IPv4 header.
This way we can avoid creating overlapping series of IP IDs that could
possibly be fragmented if the frame goes through GRO and is then
resegmented via GSO.

This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID
field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP
flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4
headers.
In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with
IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the
option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed
IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful
in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID
value is maintained.

This patch fixes an issue I found in which we were dropping frames if we
had enabled checksums on GRE headers that were encapsulated by either FOU
or GUE. Without this patch I was barely able to get 1 Gb/s of throughput.
With this patch applied I am now at least getting around 6 Gb/s.
The issue is due to the fact that with FOU or GUE applied we do not provide
a transport offset pointing to the GRE header, nor do we offload it in
software as the GRE header is completely skipped by GSO and treated like a
VXLAN or GENEVE type header. As such we need to prevent the stack from
generating it and also prevent GRE from generating it via any interface we
create.

When drivers express support for TSO of encapsulated packets, they
only mean that they can do it for one layer of encapsulation.
Supporting additional levels would mean updating, at a minimum,
more IP length fields and they are unaware of this.
No encapsulation device expresses support for handling offloaded
encapsulated packets, so we won't generate these types of frames
in the transmit path. However, GRO doesn't have a check for
multiple levels of encapsulation and will attempt to build them.
UDP tunnel GRO actually does prevent this situation but it only
handles multiple UDP tunnels stacked on top of each other. This
generalizes that solution to prevent any kind of tunnel stacking
that would cause problems.

Netdevice parameter hard_header_len is variously interpreted both as
an upper and lower bound on link layer header length. The field is
used as upper bound when reserving room at allocation, as lower bound
when validating user input in PF_PACKET.
Clarify the definition to be maximum header length. For validation
of untrusted headers, add an optional validate member to header_ops.
Allow bypassing of validation by passing CAP_SYS_RAWIO, for instance
for deliberate testing of corrupt input. In this case, pad trailing
bytes, as some device drivers expect completely initialized headers.

Ethernet drivers implementing both {GS}RXFH and {GS}CHANNELS ethtool ops
incorrectly allow SCHANNELS when it would conflict with the settings
from SRXFH. This occurs because it is not possible for drivers to
understand whether their Rx flow indirection table has been configured
or is in the default state. In addition, drivers currently behave in
various ways when increasing the number of Rx channels.
Some drivers will always destroy the Rx flow indirection table when this
occurs, whether it has been set by the user or not. Other drivers will
attempt to preserve the table even if the user has never modified it
from the default driver settings. Neither of these situation is
desirable because it leads to unexpected behavior or loss of user
configuration.
The correct behavior is to simply return -EINVAL when SCHANNELS would
conflict with the current Rx flow table settings. However, it should
only do so if the current settings were modified by the user. If we
required that the new settings never conflict with the current (default)
Rx flow settings, we would force users to first reduce their Rx flow
settings and then reduce the number of Rx channels.
This patch proposes a solution implemented in net/core/ethtool.c which
ensures that all drivers behave correctly. It checks whether the RXFH
table has been configured to non-default settings, and stores this
information in a private netdev flag. When the number of channels is
requested to change, it first ensures that the current Rx flow table is
not going to assign flows to now disabled channels.

The napi_synchronize() function is defined twice: The definition
for SMP builds waits for other CPUs to be done, while the uniprocessor
variant just contains a barrier and ignores its argument.
In the mvneta driver, this leads to a warning about an unused variable
when we lookup the NAPI struct of another CPU and then don't use it:
ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c: In function 'mvneta_percpu_notifier':
ethernet/marvell/mvneta.c:2910:30: error: unused variable 'other_port' [-Werror=unused-variable]
There are no other CPUs on a UP build, so that code never runs, but
gcc does not know this.
The nicest solution seems to be to turn the napi_synchronize() helper
into an inline function for the UP case as well, as that leads gcc to
not complain about the argument being unused. Once we do that, we can
also combine the two cases into a single function definition and use
if(IS_ENABLED()) rather than #ifdef to make it look a bit nicer.
The warning first came up in linux-4.4, but I failed to catch it
earlier.

This work adds a generalization of the ingress qdisc as a qdisc holding
only classifiers. The clsact qdisc works on ingress, but also on egress.
In both cases, it's execution happens without taking the qdisc lock, and
the main difference for the egress part compared to prior version of [1]
is that this can be applied with _any_ underlying real egress qdisc (also
classless ones).
Besides solving the use-case of [1], that is, allowing for more programmability
on assigning skb->priority for the mqprio case that is supported by most
popular 10G+ NICs, it also opens up a lot more flexibility for other tc
applications. The main work on classification can already be done at clsact
egress time if the use-case allows and state stored for later retrieval
f.e. again in skb->priority with major/minors (which is checked by most
classful qdiscs before consulting tc_classify()) and/or in other skb fields
like skb->tc_index for some light-weight post-processing to get to the
eventual classid in case of a classful qdisc. Another use case is that
the clsact egress part allows to have a central egress counterpart to
the ingress classifiers, so that classifiers can easily share state (e.g.
in cls_bpf via eBPF maps) for ingress and egress.
Currently, default setups like mq + pfifo_fast would require for this to
use, for example, prio qdisc instead (to get a tc_classify() run) and to
duplicate the egress classifier for each queue. With clsact, it allows
for leaving the setup as is, it can additionally assign skb->priority to
put the skb in one of pfifo_fast's bands and it can share state with maps.
Moreover, we can access the skb's dst entry (f.e. to retrieve tclassid)
w/o the need to perform a skb_dst_force() to hold on to it any longer. In
lwt case, we can also use this facility to setup dst metadata via cls_bpf
(bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key()) without needing a real egress qdisc just for
that (case of IFF_NO_QUEUE devices, for example).
The realization can be done without any changes to the scheduler core
framework. All it takes is that we have two a-priori defined minors/child
classes, where we can mux between ingress and egress classifier list
(dev->ingress_cl_list and dev->egress_cl_list, latter stored close to
dev->_tx to avoid extra cacheline miss for moderate loads). The egress
part is a bit similar modelled to handle_ing() and patched to a noop in
case the functionality is not used. Both handlers are now called
sch_handle_ingress() and sch_handle_egress(), code sharing among the two
doesn't seem practical as there are various minor differences in both
paths, so that making them conditional in a single handler would rather
slow things down.
Full compatibility to ingress qdisc is provided as well. Since both
piggyback on TC_H_CLSACT, only one of them (ingress/clsact) can exist
per netdevice, and thus ingress qdisc specific behaviour can be retained
for user space. This means, either a user does 'tc qdisc add dev foo ingress'
and configures ingress qdisc as usual, or the 'tc qdisc add dev foo clsact'
alternative, where both, ingress and egress classifier can be configured
as in the below example. ingress qdisc supports attaching classifier to any
minor number whereas clsact has two fixed minors for muxing between the
lists, therefore to not break user space setups, they are better done as
two separate qdiscs.
I decided to extend the sch_ingress module with clsact functionality so
that commonly used code can be reused, the module is being aliased with
sch_clsact so that it can be auto-loaded properly. Alternative would have been
to add a flag when initializing ingress to alter its behaviour plus aliasing
to a different name (as it's more than just ingress). However, the first would
end up, based on the flag, choosing the new/old behaviour by calling different
function implementations to handle each anyway, the latter would require to
register ingress qdisc once again under different alias. So, this really begs
to provide a minimal, cleaner approach to have Qdisc_ops and Qdisc_class_ops
by its own that share callbacks used by both.
Example, adding qdisc:
# tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
# tc qdisc show dev foo
qdisc mq 0: root
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :1 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :2 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :3 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
qdisc pfifo_fast 0: parent :4 bands 3 priomap 1 2 2 2 1 2 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1
qdisc clsact ffff: parent ffff:fff1
Adding filters (deleting, etc works analogous by specifying ingress/egress):
# tc filter add dev foo ingress bpf da obj bar.o sec ingress
# tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da obj bar.o sec egress
# tc filter show dev foo ingress
filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf
filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 bar.o:[ingress] direct-action

Add skb_csum_offload_chk driver helper function to determine if a
device with limited checksum offload capabilities is able to offload the
checksum for a given packet.
This patch includes:
- The skb_csum_offload_chk function. Returns true if checksum is
offloadable, else false. Optionally, in the case that the checksum
is not offloable, the function can call skb_checksum_help to resolve
the checksum. skb_csum_offload_chk also returns whether the checksum
refers to an encapsulated checksum.
- Definition of skb_csum_offl_spec structure that caller uses to
indicate rules about what it can offload (e.g. IPv4/v6, TCP/UDP only,
whether encapsulated checksums can be offloaded, whether checksum with
IPv6 extension headers can be offloaded).
- Ancilary functions called skb_csum_offload_chk_help,
skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn, skb_csum_off_chk_help_cmn_v4_only.

The name NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is a misnomer. This does not correspond to the
set of features for offloading all checksums. This is a mask of the
checksum offload related features bits. It is incorrect to set both
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM or NETIF_F_IPV6 at the same time for
features of a device.
This patch:
- Changes instances of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK (where
NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is being used as a mask).
- Changes bonding, sfc/efx, ipvlan, macvlan, vlan, and team drivers to

NAPI drivers no longer need to observe a particular protocol
to benefit from busy polling (CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL=y)
napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() are automatically called
from core networking stack, respectively from
netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del()
This patch depends on free_netdev() and netif_napi_del() being
called from process context, which seems to be the norm.
Drivers might still prefer to call napi_hash_del() on their
own, since they might combine all the rcu grace periods into
a single one, knowing their NAPI structures lifetime, while
core networking stack has no idea of a possible combining.
Once this patch proves to not bring serious regressions,

Netfilter fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree. This
large batch that includes fixes for ipset, netfilter ingress, nf_tables
dynamic set instantiation and a longstanding Kconfig dependency problem.
More specifically, they are:
1) Add missing check for empty hook list at the ingress hook, from
Florian Westphal.
2) Input and output interface are swapped at the ingress hook,
reported by Patrick McHardy.
3) Resolve ipset extension alignment issues on ARM, patch from Jozsef
Kadlecsik.
4) Fix bit check on bitmap in ipset hash type, also from Jozsef.
5) Release buckets when all entries have expired in ipset hash type,
again from Jozsef.
6) Oneliner to initialize conntrack tuple object in the PPTP helper,
otherwise the conntrack lookup may fail due to random bits in the
structure holes, patch from Anthony Lineham.
7) Silence a bogus gcc warning in nfnetlink_log, from Arnd Bergmann.
8) Fix Kconfig dependency problems with TPROXY, socket and dup, also
from Arnd.
9) Add __netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats() to allow creating percpu counters
from atomic context, this is required by the follow up fix for
nf_tables.
10) Fix crash from the dynamic set expression, we have to add new clone
operation that should be defined when a simple memcpy is not enough.
This resolves a crash when using per-cpu counters with new Patrick
McHardy's flow table nft support.

Drivers might call napi_disable while not holding the napi instance poll_lock.
In those instances, its possible for a race condition to exist between
poll_one_napi and napi_disable. That is to say, poll_one_napi only tests the
NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit to see if there is work to do during a poll, and as such
the following may happen:
CPU0 CPU1
ndo_tx_timeout napi_poll_dev
napi_disable poll_one_napi
test_and_set_bit (ret 0)
test_bit (ret 1)
reset adapter napi_poll_routine
If the adapter gets a tx timeout without a napi instance scheduled, its possible
for the adapter to think it has exclusive access to the hardware (as the napi
instance is now scheduled via the napi_disable call), while the netpoll code
thinks there is simply work to do. The result is parallel hardware access
leading to corrupt data structures in the driver, and a crash.
Additionaly, there is another, more critical race between netpoll and
napi_disable. The disabled napi state is actually identical to the scheduled
state for a given napi instance. The implication being that, if a napi instance
is disabled, a netconsole instance would see the napi state of the device as
having been scheduled, and poll it, likely while the driver was dong something
requiring exclusive access. In the case above, its fairly clear that not having
the rings in a state ready to be polled will cause any number of crashes.
The fix should be pretty easy. netpoll uses its own bit to indicate that that
the napi instance is in a state of being serviced by netpoll (NAPI_STATE_NPSVC).
We can just gate disabling on that bit as well as the sched bit. That should
prevent netpoll from conducting a napi poll if we convert its set bit to a
test_and_set_bit operation to provide mutual exclusion

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that
call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would
need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process
packets in.
As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions
after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in
many cases a code simplification.
To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to
simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn
just silently drops the struct net.

When we scan a packet for GRO processing, we want to see the most
common packet types in the front of the offload_base list.
So add a priority field so we can handle this properly.
IPv4/IPv6 get the highest priority with the implicit zero priority
field.
Next comes ethernet with a priority of 10, and then we have the MPLS
types with a priority of 15.

This patch adds the Netfilter ingress hook just after the existing tc ingress
hook, that seems to be the consensus solution for this.
Note that the Netfilter hook resides under the global static key that enables
ingress filtering. Nonetheless, Netfilter still also has its own static key for
minimal impact on the existing handle_ing().

I can see gcc gets the code under the ingress static key out of the hot path.
Then, on that cold branch, it generates the code to accomodate the netfilter
ingress static key. My explanation for this is that this reduces the pressure
on the instruction cache for non-users as the new code is out of the hot path,
and it comes with minimal impact for tc ingress users.

Four minor merge conflicts:
1) qca_spi.c renamed the local variable used for the SPI device
from spi_device to spi, meanwhile the spi_set_drvdata() call
got moved further up in the probe function.
2) Two changes were both adding new members to codel params
structure, and thus we had overlapping changes to the
initializer function.
3) 'net' was making a fix to sk_release_kernel() which is
completely removed in 'net-next'.
4) In net_namespace.c, the rtnl_net_fill() call for GET operations
had the command value fixed, meanwhile 'net-next' adjusted the
argument signature a bit.
This also matches example merge resolutions posted by Stephen

Ingress qdisc has no other purpose than calling into tc_classify()
that executes attached classifier(s) and action(s).
It has a 1:1 relationship to dev->ingress_queue. After having commit
087c1a601a ("net: sched: run ingress qdisc without locks") removed
the central ingress lock, one major contention point is gone.
The extra indirection layers however, are not necessary for calling
into ingress qdisc. pktgen calling locally into netif_receive_skb()
with a dummy u32, single CPU result on a Supermicro X10SLM-F, Xeon
E3-1240: before ~21,1 Mpps, after patch ~22,9 Mpps.
We can redirect the private classifier list to the netdev directly,
without changing any classifier API bits (!) and execute on that from
handle_ing() side. The __QDISC_STATE_DEACTIVATE test can be removed,
ingress qdisc doesn't have a queue and thus dev_deactivate_queue()
is also not applicable, ingress_cl_list provides similar behaviour.
In other words, ingress qdisc acts like TCQ_F_BUILTIN qdisc.
One next possible step is the removal of the dev's ingress (dummy)
netdev_queue, and to only have the list member in the netdevice
itself.
Note, the filter chain is RCU protected and individual filter elements
are being kfree'd by sched subsystem after RCU grace period. RCU read
lock is being held by __netif_receive_skb_core().

On the output paths in particular, we have to sometimes deal with two
socket contexts. First, and usually skb->sk, is the local socket that
generated the frame.
And second, is potentially the socket used to control a tunneling
socket, such as one the encapsulates using UDP.
We do not want to disassociate skb->sk when encapsulating in order
to fix this, because that would break socket memory accounting.
The most extreme case where this can cause huge problems is an
AF_PACKET socket transmitting over a vxlan device. We hit code
paths doing checks that assume they are dealing with an ipv4
socket, but are actually operating upon the AF_PACKET one.

We should not consult skb->sk for output decisions in xmit recursion
levels > 0 in the stack. Otherwise local socket settings could influence
the result of e.g. tunnel encapsulation process.
ipv6 does not conform with this in three places:
1) ip6_fragment: we do consult ipv6_npinfo for frag_size
2) sk_mc_loop in ipv6 uses skb->sk and checks if we should
loop the packet back to the local socket
3) ip6_skb_dst_mtu could query the settings from the user socket and
force a wrong MTU
Furthermore:
In sk_mc_loop we could potentially land in WARN_ON(1) if we use a
PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed vxlan device.
Reuse xmit_recursion as we are currently only interested in protecting
tunnel devices.

When a networking device is taken down that has a non-trivial number
of VLAN devices configured under it, we eat a full synchronize_net()
for every such VLAN device.
This is because of the call chain:
NETDEV_DOWN notifier
--> vlan_device_event()
--> dev_change_flags()
--> __dev_change_flags()
--> __dev_close()
--> __dev_close_many()
--> dev_deactivate_many()
--> synchronize_net()
This is kind of rediculous because we already have infrastructure for
batching doing operation X to a list of net devices so that we only
incur one sync.
So make use of that by exporting dev_close_many() and adjusting it's
interfaace so that the caller can fully manage the batch list. Use
this in vlan_device_event() and all the overhead goes away.

Having to say

in structures is a little bit wordy and a little bit error prone.
Instead it is possible to say:
> typedef struct {
> #ifdef CONFIG_NET_NS
> struct net *net;
> #endif
> } possible_net_t;
And then in a header say:
> possible_net_t net;
Which is cleaner and easier to use and easier to test, as the
possible_net_t is always there no matter what the compile options.
Further this allows read_pnet and write_pnet to be functions in all
cases which is better at catching typos.
This change adds possible_net_t, updates the definitions of read_pnet
and write_pnet, updates optional struct net * variables that
write_pnet uses on to have the type possible_net_t, and finally fixes
up the b0rked users of read_pnet and write_pnet.

skb_gro_remcsum_init() initializes the gro_remcsum.delta member only,
leading to compiler warnings about a possibly uninitialized
gro_remcsum.offset member:
drivers/net/vxlan.c: In function ‘vxlan_gro_receive’:
drivers/net/vxlan.c:602: warning: ‘grc.offset’ may be used uninitialized in this function
net/ipv4/fou.c: In function ‘gue_gro_receive’:
net/ipv4/fou.c:262: warning: ‘grc.offset’ may be used uninitialized in this function
While these are harmless for now:
- skb_gro_remcsum_process() sets offset before changing delta,
- skb_gro_remcsum_cleanup() checks if delta is non-zero before
accessing offset,
it's safer to let the initialization function initialize all members.

The current meaning of CHECKSUM_PARTIAL for validating checksums
is that _all_ checksums in the packet are considered valid.
However, in the manner that CHECKSUM_PARTIAL is set only the checksum
at csum_start+csum_offset and any preceding checksums may
be considered valid. If there are checksums in the packet after
csum_offset it is possible they have not been verfied.
This patch changes CHECKSUM_PARTIAL logic in skb_csum_unnecessary and
__skb_gro_checksum_validate_needed to only considered checksums
referring to csum_start and any preceding checksums (with starting
offset before csum_start) to be verified.

Remote checksum offload processing is currently the same for both
the GRO and non-GRO path. When the remote checksum offload option
is encountered, the checksum field referred to is modified in
the packet. So in the GRO case, the packet is modified in the
GRO path and then the operation is skipped when the packet goes
through the normal path based on skb->remcsum_offload. There is
a problem in that the packet may be modified in the GRO path, but
then forwarded off host still containing the remote checksum option.
A remote host will again perform RCO but now the checksum verification
will fail since GRO RCO already modified the checksum.
To fix this, we ensure that GRO restores a packet to it's original
state before returning. In this model, when GRO processes a remote
checksum option it still changes the checksum per the algorithm
but on return from lower layer processing the checksum is restored
to its original value.
In this patch we add define gro_remcsum structure which is passed
to skb_gro_remcsum_process to save offset and delta for the checksum
being changed. After lower layer processing, skb_gro_remcsum_cleanup
is called to restore the checksum before returning from GRO.

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Receive Flow Steering is a nice solution but suffers from
hash collisions when a mix of connected and unconnected traffic
is received on the host, when flow hash table is populated.
Also, clearing flow in inet_release() makes RFS not very good
for short lived flows, as many packets can follow close().
(FIN , ACK packets, ...)
This patch extends the information stored into global hash table
to not only include cpu number, but upper part of the hash value.
I use a 32bit value, and dynamically split it in two parts.
For host with less than 64 possible cpus, this gives 6 bits for the
cpu number, and 26 (32-6) bits for the upper part of the hash.
Since hash bucket selection use low order bits of the hash, we have
a full hash match, if /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries is big
enough.
If the hash found in flow table does not match, we fallback to RPS (if
it is enabled for the rxqueue).
This means that a packet for an non connected flow can avoid the
IPI through a unrelated/victim CPU.
This also means we no longer have to clear the table at socket
close time, and this helps short lived flows performance.

GSO isn't the only offload feature with restrictions that
potentially can't be expressed with the current features mechanism.
Checksum is another although it's a general issue that could in
theory apply to anything. Even if it may be possible to
implement these restrictions in other ways, it can result in
duplicate code or inefficient per-packet behavior.
This generalizes ndo_gso_check so that drivers can remove any
features that don't make sense for a given packet, similar to
netif_skb_features(). It also converts existing driver
restrictions to the new format, completing the work that was
done to support tunnel protocols since the issues apply to
checksums as well.
By actually removing features from the set that are used to do
offloading, it solves another problem with the existing
interface. In these cases, GSO would run with the original set
of features and not do anything because it appears that
segmentation is not required.

This driver is very similar to the macvlan driver except that it
uses L3 on the frame to determine the logical interface while
functioning as packet dispatcher. It inherits L2 of the master
device hence the packets on wire will have the same L2 for all
the packets originating from all virtual devices off of the same
master device.
This driver was developed keeping the namespace use-case in
mind. Hence most of the examples given here take that as the
base setup where main-device belongs to the default-ns and
virtual devices are assigned to the additional namespaces.
The device operates in two different modes and the difference
in these two modes in primarily in the TX side.
(a) L2 mode : In this mode, the device behaves as a L2 device.
TX processing upto L2 happens on the stack of the virtual device
associated with (namespace). Packets are switched after that
into the main device (default-ns) and queued for xmit.
RX processing is simple and all multicast, broadcast (if
applicable), and unicast belonging to the address(es) are
delivered to the virtual devices.
(b) L3 mode : In this mode, the device behaves like a L3 device.
TX processing upto L3 happens on the stack of the virtual device
associated with (namespace). Packets are switched to the
main-device (default-ns) for the L2 processing. Hence the routing
table of the default-ns will be used in this mode.
RX processins is somewhat similar to the L2 mode except that in
this mode only Unicast packets are delivered to the virtual device
while main-dev will handle all other packets.
The devices can be added using the "ip" command from the iproute2
package -
ip link add link <master> <virtual> type ipvlan mode [ l2 | l3 ]

drivers to notify the HCI core of such situations. There's also a minor
fix for mgmt events as well as a sparse warning fix. The code for
sending HCI commands synchronously also gets a fix where we might loose
the completion event in the case of very fast HW (particularly easily
reproducible with an emulated HCI device)."

- Support for a Broadcom BCM20702A1 variant
- Lots of lockdep fixes
- Fixed handling of LE CoC errors that should trigger SMP"

RSS (Receive Side Scaling) typically uses Toeplitz hash and a 40 or 52 bytes
RSS key.
Some drivers use a constant (and well known key), some drivers use a random
key per port, making bonding setups hard to tune. Well known keys increase
attack surface, considering that number of queues is usually a power of two.
This patch provides infrastructure to help drivers doing the right thing.
netdev_rss_key_fill() should be used by drivers to initialize their RSS key,
even if they provide ethtool -X support to let user redefine the key later.
A new /proc/sys/net/core/netdev_rss_key file can be used to get the host
RSS key even for drivers not providing ethtool -x support, in case some
applications want to precisely setup flows to match some RX queues.

Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard.
Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting
goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal
latencies.
To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use :
ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44
But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to
50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when
a packet with TCP Push flag is received.
Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every
incoming packet.
This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do,
based on traffic pattern.
Packets with Push flag wont be delayed.
Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep
receiving data.
This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting
/sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond.
To fully enable this mechanism, drivers should use napi_complete_done()
instead of napi_complete().
Tested:
Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues)
Without this feature, we send back about 305,000 ACK per second.
GRO aggregation ratio is low (811/305 = 2.65 segments per GRO packet)
Setting a timer of 2000 nsec is enough to increase GRO packet sizes
and reduce number of ACK packets. (811/19.2 = 42)
Receiver performs less calls to upper stacks, less wakes up.
This also reduces cpu usage on the sender, as it receives less ACK
packets.
Note that reducing number of wakes up increases cpu efficiency, but can
decrease QPS, as applications wont have the chance to warmup cpu caches
doing a partial read of RPC requests/answers if they fit in one skb.
