On driver load: - Initialize resource dump data structure and memory access tools (mkey & pd). - Read the resource dump's menu which contains the FW segment identifier. Each record is identified by the segment name (ASCII). During the driver's course of life, users (like reporters) may request dumps per segment. The user should create a command providing the segment identifier (SW enumeration) and command keys. In return, the user receives a command context. In order to receive the dump, the user should supply the command context and a memory (aligned to a PAGE) on which the dump content will be written. Since the dump may be larger than the given memory, the user may resubmit the command until received an indication of end-of-dump. It is the user's responsibility to destroy the command.

After performing an unbind/bind operation the network is no longer functional on i.MX6 (which has a single FEC instance): # echo 2188000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/fec/unbind # echo 2188000.ethernet > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/fec/bind [ 10.756519] pps pps0: new PPS source ptp0 [ 10.792626] libphy: fec_enet_mii_bus: probed [ 10.799330] fec 2188000.ethernet eth0: registered PHC device 1 # udhcpc -i eth0 udhcpc: started, v1.31.1 [ 14.985211] fec 2188000.ethernet eth0: no PHY, assuming direct connection to switch [ 14.993140] libphy: PHY fixed-0:00 not found [ 14.997643] fec 2188000.ethernet eth0: could not attach to PHY On SoCs with two FEC instances there are some cases where one FEC instance depends on the other one being present.

When 2 callers call smc_lgr_terminate() at the same time for the same lgr, one gets the lgr_lock and deletes the lgr from the list and releases the lock. Then the second caller gets the lock and tries to delete it again. In smc_lgr_terminate() add a check if the link group lgr is already deleted from the link group list and prevent to try to delete it a second time. And add a check if the lgr is marked as freeing, which means that a termination is already pending.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Reduce dependency between bridge and router code This patch set reduces the dependency between the bridge and the router code in preparation for RTNL removal from the route insertion path in mlxsw. The motivation and solution are explained in detail in patch #3. The main idea is that we need to stop special-casing the VXLAN devices with regards to the reference counting of the FIDs. Otherwise, we can bump into the situation described in patch #3, where the routing code calls into the bridge code which calls back into the routing code. After adding a mutex to protect router data structures to remove RTNL dependency, this can result in an AA deadlock. Patches #1 and #2 are preparations. They convert the FIDs to use 'refcount_t' for reference counting in order to catch over/under flows and add extack to the bridge creation function. Patches #3-#5 reduce the dependency between the bridge and the router code. First, by having the VXLAN device take a reference on the FID in patch #3 and then by removing unnecessary code following the change in patch #3. Patches #6-#10 adjust existing selftests and add new ones to exercise the new code paths. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The addition of a VLAN on a bridge slave prompts the driver to have the local port in question join the FID corresponding to this VLAN. Before recent changes, the operation of joining the FID would also mean that the driver would enable VXLAN tunneling if a VXLAN device was also member in the VLAN. In case the configuration of the VXLAN tunnel was not supported, an extack error would be returned. Since the operation of joining the FID no longer means that VXLAN tunneling is potentially enabled, the test is no longer relevant. Remove it.

Commit f40be47a ("mlxsw: spectrum_router: Do not force specific configuration order") added a call from the routing code to the bridge code in order to handle the case where VNI should be set on a FID following the joining of the router port to the FID. This is no longer required, as previous patches made VXLAN devices explicitly take a reference on the FID and set VNI on it. Therefore, remove the unnecessary call and simply have the RIF take a reference on the FID without checking if VNI should also be set on it.

Up until now only local ports and the router port (which is also a local port) took a reference on the corresponding FID (Filtering Identifier) when joining a bridge. For example: 192.0.2.1/24 br0 | +------+------+ | | swp1 vxlan0 In this case the reference count of the FID will be '2'. Since the VXLAN device does not take a reference on the FID, whenever a local port joins the bridge it needs to check if a VXLAN device is already enslaved. If the VXLAN device should be mapped to the FID in question, then the VXLAN device's VNI is set on the FID. Beside the fact that this scheme special-cases the VXLAN device, it also creates an unnecessary dependency between the routing and bridge code: 1. [R] IP address is added on 'br0', which prompts the creation of a RIF and a backing FID 2. [B] VNI is enabled on backing FID 3. [R] Host route corresponding to VXLAN device's source address is promoted to perform NVE decapsulation [R] - Routing code [B] - Bridge code This back and forth dependency will become problematic when a lock is added in the routing code instead of relying on RTNL, as it will result in an AA deadlock. Instead, have the VXLAN device take a reference on the FID just like all the other netdev members of the bridge. In order to correctly handle the case where VXLAN devices are already enslaved to the bridge when it is offloaded, walk the bridge's slaves and replay the configuration.

When a real dev unregisters, vlan_device_event() also unregisters all of its vlan interfaces. For each VID this ends up in __vlan_vid_del(), which attempts to remove the VID from the real dev's VLAN filter. But the unregistering real dev might no longer be able to issue the required IOs, and return an error. Subsequently we raise a noisy warning msg that is not appropriate for this situation: the real dev is being torn down anyway, there shouldn't be any worry about cleanly releasing all of its HW-internal resources. So to avoid scaring innocent users, suppress this warning when the failed deletion happens on an unregistering device. While at it also convert the raw pr_warn() to a more fitting netdev_warn().

Vlad Buslov says: ==================== Remove rtnl lock dependency from flow_action infra Currently, TC flow_action infrastructure code obtain rtnl lock before accessing action state in tc_setup_flow_action() function and releases it afterwards. This behavior is not supposed to impact TC filter insertion rate because filling flow_action representation is only a small part of creating new filter and expensive operations (hardware offload callbacks, classifiers, cls API code that creates chains and classifiers instances) already support unlocked execution. However, typical vswitch implementation might need to also dump TC filters concurrently, for example to age out unused flows or update flow counters. TC dump is fully serialized and holds rtnl lock during its whole execution in kernel space. As such, it can significantly impact concurrent tasks that try to intermittently obtain rtnl lock when filling intermediate representation for new filter offload (performance evaluation at the end of this mail). Refactor flow_action cls API infrastructure and its dependencies to not rely on rtnl lock for synchronization. Patch set overview: - Refactor tc_setup_flow_action() to obtain action tcf_lock when accessing action state. Fix its dependencies to not obtain tcf_lock themselves and assume that caller already holds it (needs to be done in same patch to prevent deadlock) and not to call sleeping functions (needs to be done in same patch to prevent "sleeping while atomic" dmesg warnings). - Refactor action helper functions to require tcf_lock instead of rtnl. Internally, all of the actions already use tcf_lock for synchronization to accommodate unlocked classifier API, so this change relies on already existing functionality. - Remove rtnl lock and "rtnl_held" argument from tc_setup_flow_action() function. To test the change, multiple concurrent TC instances are invoked with following command: time ls add* | xargs -n 1 -P 100 sudo tc -b Ten batch files with following typical rules (100k each) are used: filter add dev ens1f0_0 protocol ip ingress prio 1 handle 1 flower src_mac e4:11:0:0:0:0 dst_mac e4:12:0:0:0:0 src_ip 192.168.111.1 dst_ip 192.168.111.2 ip_proto udp dst_port 1 src_port 1 action tunnel_key set id 1 src_ip 2.2.2.2 dst_ip 2.2.2.3 dst_port 4789 no_percpu action mirred egress redirect dev vxlan1 no_percpu TC dump of same device is called in infinite loop from five concurrent instances: while true do tc -s filter show dev $NIC ingress >/dev/null done Results obtained on current net-next commit 9f68e365 ("Merge tag 'drm-next-2020-01-30' of git://anongit.freedesktop.org/drm/drm"): | net-next | this change ---------------+----------+------------- TC add | 6.3s | 6.3s TC add + dump | 29.3s | 6.8s Test results confirm significant impact of concurrent TC dump.

In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock, take action's tcfa_lock when constructing its representation as flow_action_entry structure. Refactor tcf_sample_get_group() to assume that caller holds tcf_lock and don't take it manually. This callback is only called from flow_action infra representation translator which now calls it with tcf_lock held, so this refactoring is necessary to prevent deadlock. Allocate memory with GFP_ATOMIC flag for ip_tunnel_info copy because tcf_tunnel_info_copy() is only called from flow_action representation infra code with tcf_lock spinlock taken.
