For correctness, we need to configure the packet filters for timestamping during bnxt_open. This way they are always configured after firmware reset or chip reset. We should not assume that the filters will always be retained across resets. This patch modifies the ioctl handler and always configures the PTP filters in the bnxt_open() path.

This driver was using the TX IRQ handler to perform all TX completion tasks. Under heavy TX network load, this can cause significant irqs-off latencies (found to be in the hundreds of microseconds using ftrace). This can cause other issues, such as overrunning serial UART FIFOs when using high baud rates with limited UART FIFO sizes. Switch to using a NAPI poll handler to perform the TX completion work to get this out of hard IRQ context and avoid the IRQ latency impact. A separate poll handler is used for TX and RX since they have separate IRQs on this controller, so that the completion work for each of them stays on the same CPU as the interrupt. Testing on a Xilinx MPSoC ZU9EG platform using iperf3 from a Linux PC through a switch at 1G link speed showed no significant change in TX or RX throughput, with approximately 941 Mbps before and after. Hard IRQ time in the TX throughput test was significantly reduced from 12% to below 1% on the CPU handling TX interrupts, with total hard+soft IRQ CPU usage dropping from about 56% down to 48%.

The axienet_start_xmit function was updating the tx_bd_tail variable multiple times, with potential rollbacks on error or invalid intermediate positions, even though this variable is also used in the TX completion path. Use READ_ONCE where this variable is read and WRITE_ONCE where it is written to make this update more atomic, and move the write before the MMIO write to start the transfer, so it is protected by that implicit write barrier.

INET_MATCH() runs without holding a lock on the socket. We probably need to annotate most reads. This patch makes INET_MATCH() an inline function to ease our changes. v2: We remove the 32bit version of it, as modern compilers should generate the same code really, no need to try to be smarter. Also make 'struct net *net' the first argument. Signed-off-by:

If reading the Interrupt Source Flag register fails with -ENODEV, then the PHY has been hot-removed and the correct response is to bail out instead of throwing a WARN splat and attempting to suspend the PHY. The PHY should be stopped in due course anyway as the kernel asynchronously tears down the device.

Cache the interrupt mask to avoid re-reading it from the PHY upon every interrupt. This will simplify a subsequent commit which detects hot-removal in the interrupt handler and bails out. Analyzing and debugging PHY transactions also becomes simpler if such redundant reads are avoided. Last not least, interrupt overhead and latency is slightly improved.

Link status of SMSC LAN95xx chips is polled once per second, even though they're capable of signaling PHY interrupts through the MAC layer. Forward those interrupts to the PHY driver to avoid polling. Benefits are reduced bus traffic, reduced CPU overhead and quicker interface bringup. Polling was introduced in 2016 by commit d69d1694 ("usbnet: smsc95xx: fix link detection for disabled autonegotiation"). Back then, the LAN95xx driver neglected to enable the ENERGYON interrupt, hence couldn't detect link-up events when auto-negotiation was disabled. The proper solution would have been to enable the ENERGYON interrupt instead of polling. Since then, PHY handling was moved from the LAN95xx driver to the SMSC PHY driver with commit 05b35e7e ("smsc95xx: add phylib support"). That PHY driver is capable of link detection with auto-negotiation disabled because it enables the ENERGYON interrupt. Note that signaling interrupts through the MAC layer not only works with the integrated PHY, but also with an external PHY, provided its interrupt pin is attached to LAN95xx's nPHY_INT pin. In the unlikely event that the interrupt pin of an external PHY is attached to a GPIO of the SoC (or not connected at all), the driver can be amended to retrieve the irq from the PHY's of_node. To forward PHY interrupts to phylib, it is not sufficient to call phy_mac_interrupt(). Instead, the PHY's interrupt handler needs to run so that PHY interrupts are cleared. That's because according to page 119 of the LAN950x datasheet, "The source of this interrupt is a level. The interrupt persists until it is cleared in the PHY." https://www.microchip.com/content/dam/mchp/documents/UNG/ProductDocuments/DataSheets/LAN950x-Data-Sheet-DS00001875D.pdf Therefore, create an IRQ domain with a single IRQ for the PHY. In the future, the IRQ domain may be extended to support the 11 GPIOs on the LAN95xx. Normally the PHY interrupt should be masked until the PHY driver has cleared it. However masking requires a (sleeping) USB transaction and interrupts are received in (non-sleepable) softirq context. I decided not to mask the interrupt at all (by using the dummy_irq_chip's noop ->irq_mask() callback): The USB interrupt endpoint is polled in 1 msec intervals and normally that's sufficient to wake the PHY driver's IRQ thread and have it clear the interrupt. If it does take longer, worst thing that can happen is the IRQ thread is woken again. No big deal. Because PHY interrupts are now perpetually enabled, there's no need to selectively enable them on suspend. So remove all invocations of smsc95xx_enable_phy_wakeup_interrupts(). In smsc95xx_resume(), move the call of phy_init_hw() before usbnet_resume() (which restarts the status URB) to ensure that the PHY is fully initialized when an interrupt is handled.

When a PHY interrupt is signaled, the SMSC LAN95xx driver updates the MAC full duplex mode and PHY flow control registers based on cached data in struct phy_device: smsc95xx_status() # raises EVENT_LINK_RESET usbnet_deferred_kevent() smsc95xx_link_reset() # uses cached data in phydev Simultaneously, phylib polls link status once per second and updates that cached data: phy_state_machine() phy_check_link_status() phy_read_status() lan87xx_read_status() genphy_read_status() # updates cached data in phydev If smsc95xx_link_reset() wins the race against genphy_read_status(), the registers may be updated based on stale data. E.g. if the link was previously down, phydev->duplex is set to DUPLEX_UNKNOWN and that's what smsc95xx_link_reset() will use, even though genphy_read_status() may update it to DUPLEX_FULL afterwards. PHY interrupts are currently only enabled on suspend to trigger wakeup, so the impact of the race is limited, but we're about to enable them perpetually. Avoid the race by delaying execution of smsc95xx_link_reset() until phy_state_machine() has done its job and calls back via smsc95xx_handle_link_change(). Signaling EVENT_LINK_RESET on wakeup is not necessary because phylib picks up link status changes through polling. So drop the declaration of a ->link_reset() callback. Note that the semicolon on a line by itself added in smsc95xx_status() is a placeholder for a function call which will be added in a subsequent commit. That function call will actually handle the INT_ENP_PHY_INT_ interrupt.

smsc95xx_reset() resets the PHY behind the PHY driver's back, which seems like a bad idea generally. Remove that portion of the function. We're about to use PHY interrupts instead of polling to detect link changes on SMSC LAN95xx chips. Because smsc95xx_reset() is called from usbnet_open(), PHY interrupt settings are lost whenever the net_device is brought up. There are two other callers of smsc95xx_reset(), namely smsc95xx_bind() and smsc95xx_reset_resume(), and both may indeed benefit from a PHY reset. However they already perform one through their calls to phy_connect_direct() and phy_init_hw().

Upon receiving data from the Interrupt Endpoint, the SMSC LAN95xx driver attempts to clear the signaled interrupts by writing "all ones" to the Interrupt Status Register. However the driver only ever enables a single type of interrupt, namely the PHY Interrupt. And according to page 119 of the LAN950x datasheet, its bit in the Interrupt Status Register is read-only. There's no other way to clear it than in a separate PHY register: https://www.microchip.com/content/dam/mchp/documents/UNG/ProductDocuments/DataSheets/LAN950x-Data-Sheet-DS00001875D.pdf Consequently, writing "all ones" to the Interrupt Status Register is pointless and can be dropped.

Commit 2c9d6c2b ("usbnet: run unbind() before unregister_netdev()") sought to fix a use-after-free on disconnect of USB Ethernet adapters. It turns out that a different fix is necessary to address the issue: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/18b3541e5372bc9b9fc733d422f4e698c089077c.1650177997.git.lukas@wunner.de/ So the commit was not necessary. The commit made binding and unbinding of USB Ethernet asymmetrical: Before, usbnet_probe() first invoked the ->bind() callback and then register_netdev(). usbnet_disconnect() mirrored that by first invoking unregister_netdev() and then ->unbind(). Since the commit, the order in usbnet_disconnect() is reversed and no longer mirrors usbnet_probe(). One consequence is that a PHY disconnected (and stopped) in ->unbind() is afterwards stopped once more by unregister_netdev() as it closes the netdev before unregistering. That necessitates a contortion in ->stop() because the PHY may only be stopped if it hasn't already been disconnected. Reverting the commit allows making the call to phy_stop() unconditional in ->stop().

The listen sk is currently stored in two hash tables, listening_hash (hashed by port) and lhash2 (hashed by port and address). After commit 0ee58dad ("net: tcp6: prefer listeners bound to an address") and commit d9fbc7f6 ("net: tcp: prefer listeners bound to an address"), the TCP-SYN lookup fast path does not use listening_hash.

This patch adds a test that has 300 VIPs listening on port 443. Each VIP:443 will have 80 listening socks by using SO_REUSEPORT. Thus, it will have 24000 listening socks. Before removing the port only listening_hash, all socks will be in the same port 443 bucket and inet_reuseport_add_sock() spends much time to walk through the bucket. After removing the port only listening_hash and move all usage to the port+addr lhash2, each bucket in the ideal case has 80 sk which is much smaller than before. Here is the test result from a qemu: Before: listen 24000 socks took 210.210485362 (~210s) After: listen 24000 socks took 0.207173 (~210ms) Signed-off-by:

The latter patch has a selftest to demonstrate this case. This patch takes this chance to move all remaining listening_hash usages to lhash2 and then retire listening_hash. Since most changes need to be done together, it is hard to cut the listening_hash to lhash2 switch into small patches. The changes in this patch is highlighted here for the review purpose. 1. Because of the listening_hash removal, lhash2 can use the sk->sk_nulls_node instead of the icsk->icsk_listen_portaddr_node. This will also keep the sk_unhashed() check to work as is after stop adding sk to listening_hash. The union is removed from inet_listen_hashbucket because only nulls_head is needed. 2. icsk->icsk_listen_portaddr_node and its helpers are removed. 3. The current lhash2 users needs to iterate with sk_nulls_node instead of icsk_listen_portaddr_node. One case is in the inet[6]_lhash2_lookup(). Another case is the seq_file iterator in tcp_ipv4.c. One thing to note is sk_nulls_next() is needed because the old inet_lhash2_for_each_icsk_continue() does a "next" first before iterating. 4. Move the remaining listening_hash usage to lhash2 inet_reuseport_add_sock() which this series is trying to improve. inet_diag.c and mptcp_diag.c are the final two remaining use cases and is moved to lhash2 now also.

This patch folds lhash2 related functions into __inet_hash and inet_unhash. This will make the removal of the listening_hash in a latter patch easier to review. First, this patch folds inet_hash2 into __inet_hash. For unhash, the current call sequence is like inet_unhash() => __inet_unhash() => inet_unhash2(). The specific testing cases in __inet_unhash() are mostly related to TCP_LISTEN sk and its caller inet_unhash() already has the TCP_LISTEN test, so this patch folds both __inet_unhash() and inet_unhash2() into inet_unhash(). Note that all listening_hash users also have lhash2 initialized, so the !h->lhash2 check is no longer needed. Signed-off-by:

With the upcoming increase in complexity associated with assigning DSA tag_8021q CPU ports to certain user ports, it becomes necessary for the switch lib to be able to retrieve the index of a certain ocelot_port. Therefore, introduce a new u8 to ocelot_port (same size as the chip_port used by the ocelot switchdev driver) and rework the existing code to populate and use it. Signed-off-by:

The error handling for the current tagging protocol change procedure is a bit brittle (we dismantle the previous tagging protocol entirely before setting up the new one). By identifying which parts of a tagging protocol are unique to itself and which parts are shared with the other, we can implement a protocol change procedure where error handling is a bit more robust, because we start setting up the new protocol first, and tear down the old one only after the setup of the specific and shared parts succeeded. The protocol change is a bit too open-coded too, in the area of migrating host flood settings and MDBs. By identifying what differs between tagging protocols (the forwarding masks for host flooding) we can implement a more straightforward migration procedure which is handled in the shared portion of the protocol change, rather than individually by each protocol. Therefore, a more structured approach calls for the introduction of a structure of function pointers per tagging protocol. This covers setup, teardown and the host forwarding mask. In the future it will also cover how to prepare for a new DSA master. The initial tagging protocol setup (at driver probe time) and the final teardown (at driver removal time) are also adapted to call into the structured methods of the specific protocol in current use. This is especially relevant for teardown, where we previously called felix_del_tag_protocol() only for the first CPU port. But by not specifying which CPU port this is for, we gain more flexibility to support multiple CPU ports in the future. Signed-off-by:

Ocelot switches support a single active CPU port at a time (at least as a trapping destination, i.e. for control traffic). This is true regardless of whether we are using the native copy-to-CPU-port-module functionality, or a redirect action towards the software-defined tag_8021q CPU port. Currently we assume that the trapping destination in tag_8021q mode is the first CPU port, yet in the future we may want to migrate the user ports to the second CPU port. For that to work, we need to make sure that the tag_8021q trapping destination is a CPU port that is active, i.e. is used by at least some user port on which the trap was added. Otherwise, we may end up redirecting the traffic to a CPU port which isn't even up. Note that due to the current design where we simply choose the CPU port of the first port from the trap's ingress port mask, it may be that a CPU port absorbes control traffic from user ports which aren't affine to it as per user space's request. This isn't ideal, but is the lesser of two evils. Following the user-configured affinity for traps would mean that we can no longer reuse a single TCAM entry for multiple traps, which is what we actually do for e.g. PTP. Either we duplicate and deduplicate TCAM entries on the fly when user-to-CPU-port mappings change (which is unnecessarily complicated), or we redirect trapped traffic to all tag_8021q CPU ports if multiple such ports are in use. The latter would have actually been nice, if it actually worked, but it doesn't, since a OCELOT_MASK_MODE_REDIRECT action towards multiple ports would not take PGID_SRC into consideration, and it would just duplicate the packet towards each (CPU) port, leading to duplicates in software.

DSA has not supported (and probably will not support in the future either) independent tagging protocols per CPU port. Different switch drivers have different requirements, some may need to replicate some settings for each CPU port, some may need to apply some settings on a single CPU port, while some may have to configure some global settings and then some per-CPU-port settings. In any case, the current model where DSA calls ->change_tag_protocol for each CPU port turns out to be impractical for drivers where there are global things to be done. For example, felix calls dsa_tag_8021q_register(), which makes no sense per CPU port, so it suppresses the second call. Let drivers deal with replication towards all CPU ports, and remove the CPU port argument from the function prototype. Signed-off-by:

At the time - commit 7569459a ("net: dsa: manage flooding on the CPU ports") - not introducing a dedicated switch callback for host flooding made sense, because for the only user, the felix driver, there was nothing different to do for the CPU port than set the flood flags on the CPU port just like on any other bridge port. There are 2 reasons why this approach is not good enough, however. (1) Other drivers, like sja1105, support configuring flooding as a function of {ingress port, egress port}, whereas the DSA ->port_bridge_flags() function only operates on an egress port. So with that driver we'd have useless host flooding from user ports which don't need it. (2) Even with the felix driver, support for multiple CPU ports makes it difficult to piggyback on ->port_bridge_flags(). The way in which the felix driver is going to support host-filtered addresses with multiple CPU ports is that it will direct these addresses towards both CPU ports (in a sort of multicast fashion), then restrict the forwarding to only one of the two using the forwarding masks. Consequently, flooding will also be enabled towards both CPU ports. However, ->port_bridge_flags() gets passed the index of a single CPU port, and that leaves the flood settings out of sync between the 2 CPU ports. This is to say, it's better to have a specific driver method for host flooding, which takes the user port as argument. This solves problem (1) by allowing the driver to do different things for different user ports, and problem (2) by abstracting the operation and letting the driver do whatever, rather than explicitly making the DSA core point to the CPU port it thinks needs to be touched. This new method also creates a problem, which is that cross-chip setups are not handled. However I don't have hardware right now where I can test what is the proper thing to do, and there isn't hardware compatible with multi-switch trees that supports host flooding. So it remains a problem to be tackled in the future. Signed-off-by:

Similar to dsa_user_ports() which retrieves a port mask of all user ports, introduce dsa_cpu_ports() which retrieves the mask of all CPU ports of a switch. Signed-off-by:

For symmetry with host FDBs and MDBs where the indirection is now handled outside the ocelot switch lib, do the same for bridge port flags (unicast/multicast/broadcast flooding). The only caller of the ocelot switch lib which uses the NPI port is the Felix DSA driver. Signed-off-by:
