This avoids an indirect call in the receive path for TCP and UDP packets. TCP takes precedence on UDP, so that we have a single additional conditional in the common case. When IPV6 is build as module, all gro symbols except UDPv6 are builtin, while the latter belong to the ipv6 module, so we need some special care. v1 -> v2: - adapted to INDIRECT_CALL_ changes v2 -> v3: - fix build issue with CONFIG_IPV6=m Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This avoids an indirect calls for L3 GRO receive path, both for ipv4 and ipv6, if the latter is not compiled as a module. Note that when IPv6 is compiled as builtin, it will be checked first, so we have a single additional compare for the more common path. v1 -> v2: - adapted to INDIRECT_CALL_ changes Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This header define a bunch of helpers that allow avoiding the retpoline overhead when calling builtin functions via function pointers. It boils down to explicitly comparing the function pointers to known builtin functions and eventually invoke directly the latter. The macros defined here implement the boilerplate for the above schema and will be used by the next patches. rfc -> v1: - use branch prediction hint, as suggested by Eric v1 -> v2: - list explicitly the builtin function names in INDIRECT_CALL_*(), as suggested by Ed Cree Suggested-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently the driver issues 2 mmio reads to figure out the number of transmitted packets and clean them. We can get rid of the expensive reads since BIT 31 of the Tx descriptor can be used for that. We can also remove the budget counting of Tx completions since all of the descriptors are not deliberately processed. Performance numbers using pktgen are: size pre-patch(pps) post-patch(pps) 64 362483 427916 128 358315 411686 256 352725 389683 512 215675 216464 1024 113812 114442 Signed-off-by: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Running pktgen with packets sizes > 512b ends up in the interface Txq getting stuck. "netsec 522d0000.ethernet eth0: netsec_netdev_start_xmit: TxQFull!" appears on dmesg but the interface never recovers. It requires an ifconfig down/up to make the interface usable again. The reason that triggers this, is a race condition between .ndo_start_xmit and the napi completion. The available budget is calculated first and indicates the queue is full. Due to a costly netif_err() the queue is not stopped in time while the napi completion runs, clears the irq and frees up descriptors, thus the queue never wakes up again. Fix this by moving the print after stopping the queue, make the print ratelimited, add barriers and check for cleaned descriptors..

A recent commit allows sockets bound to a VRF to receive ipv6 link local packets. However, it only works for UDP and worse TCP connection attempts to the LLA with the only listener bound to the VRF just hang where as before the client gets a reset and connection refused. Fix by adjusting ir_iif for LL addresses and packets received through a device enslaved to a VRF.

Peter Oskolkov says: ==================== net: prefer listeners bound to an address A relatively common use case is to have several IPs configured on a host, and have different listeners for each of them. We would like to add a "catch all" listener on addr_any, to match incoming connections not served by any of the listeners bound to a specific address. However, port-only lookups can match addr_any sockets when sockets listening on specific addresses are present if so_reuseport flag is set. This patchset eliminates lookups into port-only hashtable, as lookups by (addr,port) tuple are easily available. In a future patchset I plan to explore whether it is possible to remove port-only hashtables completely: additional refactoring will be required, as some non-lookup code uses the hashtables. ==================== Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Specifically, fix the locking order to be consistent - table lock followed by neighbor lock, and then entries in the FAILED state should always be candidates for forced_gc without waiting for any time span (return to the eviction logic prior to the separate gc_list). Patch 3 removes 2 now unnecessary arguments to neigh_del. Patch 4 moves a helper from a header file to core code in preparation for Patch 5 which removes NTF_EXT_LEARNED entries from the gc_list.

Petr Machata says: ==================== Introduce NETDEV_PRE_CHANGEADDR Spectrum devices have a limitation that all router interfaces need to have the same address prefix. In Spectrum-1, the requirement is for the initial 38 bits of all RIFs to be the same, in Spectrum-2 the limit is 36 bits. Currently violations of this requirement are not diagnosed. At the same time, if the condition is not upheld, the mismatched MAC address ends up overwriting the common prefix, and all RIF MAC addresses silently change to the new prefix. It is therefore desirable to be able at least to diagnose the issue, and better to reject attempts to change MAC addresses in ways that is incompatible with the device. Currently MAC address changes are notified through emission of NETDEV_CHANGEADDR, which is done after the change. Extending this message to allow vetoing is certainly possible, but several other notification types have instead adopted a simple two-stage approach: first a "pre" notification is sent to make sure all interested parties are OK with the change that's about to be done. Then the change is done, and afterwards a "post" notification is sent. This dual approach is easier to use: when the change is vetoed, nothing has changed yet, and it's therefore unnecessary to roll anything back. Therefore this patchset introduces it for NETDEV_CHANGEADDR as well. One prominent path to emitting NETDEV_CHANGEADDR is through dev_set_mac_address(). Therefore in patch #1, give this function an extack argument, so that a textual reason for rejection (or a warning) can be communicated back to the user. In patch #2, add the new notification type. In patch #3, have dev.c emit the notification for instances of dev_addr change, or addition of an address to dev_addrs list. In patches #4 and #5, extend the bridge driver to handle and emit the new notifier. In patch #6, change IPVLAN to emit the new notifier. Likewise for bonding driver in patches #7 and #8. Note that the team driver doesn't need this treatment, as it goes through dev_set_mac_address(). In patches #9, #10 and #11 adapt mlxsw to veto MAC addresses on router interfaces, if they violate the requirement that all RIF MAC addresses have the same prefix. Finally in patches #12 and #13, add a test for vetoing of a direct change of a port device MAC, and indirect change of a bridge MAC. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When a FID RIF is created for a bridge with IP address, its MAC address must obey the same requirements as other RIFs. Test that attempts to change the address incompatibly by attaching a device are vetoed with extack.
