The address in the switchdev_obj_fdb structure is currently represented as a pointer. Replacing it for a 6-byte array allows switchdev to carry addresses directly read from hardware registers, not stored by the switch chip driver (as in Rocker).

There is a race condition in store_rps_map that allows jump label count in rps_needed to go below zero. This can happen when concurrently attempting to set and a clear map. Scenario: 1. rps_needed count is zero 2. New map is assigned by setting thread, but rps_needed count _not_ yet incremented (rps_needed count still zero) 2. Map is cleared by second thread, old_map set to that just assigned 3. Second thread performs static_key_slow_dec, rps_needed count now goes negative Fix is to increment or decrement rps_needed under the spinlock.

IFLA_VXLAN_FLOWBASED is useless without IFLA_VXLAN_COLLECT_METADATA, so combine them into single IFLA_VXLAN_COLLECT_METADATA flag. 'flowbased' doesn't convey real meaning of the vxlan tunnel mode. This mode can be used by routing, tc+bpf and ovs. Only ovs is strictly flow based, so 'collect metadata' is a better name for this tunnel mode.

Sowmini Varadhan says: ==================== RDS-TCP: Network namespace support This patch series contains the set of changes to correctly set up the infra for PF_RDS sockets that use TCP as the transport in multiple network namespaces. Patch 1 in the series is the minimal set of changes to allow a single instance of RDS-TCP to run in any (i.e init_net or other) net namespace. The changes in this patch set ensure that the execution of 'modprobe [-r] rds_tcp' sets up the kernel TCP sockets relative to the current netns, so that RDS applications can send/recv packets from that netns, and the netns can later be deleted cleanly. Patch 2 of the series further allows multiple RDS-TCP instances, one per network namespace. The changes in this patch allows dynamic creation/tear-down of RDS-TCP client and server sockets across all current and future namespaces. v2 changes from RFC sent out earlier: David Ahern comments in patch 1, net_device notifier in patch 2, patch 3 broken off and submitted separately. v3: Cong Wang review comments. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Register pernet subsys init/stop functions that will set up and tear down per-net RDS-TCP listen endpoints. Unregister pernet subusys functions on 'modprobe -r' to clean up these end points. Enable keepalive on both accept and connect socket endpoints. The keepalive timer expiration will ensure that client socket endpoints will be removed as appropriate from the netns when an interface is removed from a namespace. Register a device notifier callback that will clean up all sockets (and thus avoid the need to wait for keepalive timeout) when the loopback device is unregistered from the netns indicating that the netns is getting deleted.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-08-05 This series contains updates to i40e, i40evf and e1000e. Anjali adds support for x772 devices to i40e and i40evf. With the added support, x772 supports offloading of the outer UDP transmit and receive checksum for tunneled packets. Also supports evicting ATR filters in the hardware, so update the driver with this new feature set. Raanan provides several fixes for e1000e, first rectifies the Energy Efficient Ethernet in Sx code so that it only applies to parts that actually support EEE in Sx. Fix whitespace and moved ICH8 related define to the proper context. Fixed the ASPM locking which was reported by Bjorn Helgaas. Fix a workaround implementation for systime which could experience a large non-linear increment of the systime value when checking for overflow. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The pr_debug family of functions turns into a no-op when -DDEBUG is not specified, opting instead to call "no_printk", which gets compiled to a no-op (but retains gcc's nice warnings about printf-style arguments). The problem with net_dbg_ratelimited is that it is defined to be a variant of net_ratelimited_function, which expands to essentially: if (net_ratelimit()) pr_debug(fmt, ...); When DEBUG is not defined, then this becomes, if (net_ratelimit()) ; This seems benign, except it isn't. Firstly, there's the obvious overhead of calling net_ratelimit needlessly, which does quite some book keeping for the rate limiting. Given that the pr_debug and net_dbg_ratelimited family of functions are sprinkled liberally through performance critical code, with developers assuming they'll be compiled out to a no-op most of the time, we certainly do not want this needless book keeping. Secondly, and most visibly, even though no debug message is printed when DEBUG is not defined, if there is a flood of invocations, dmesg winds up peppered with messages such as "net_ratelimit: 320 callbacks suppressed". This is because our aforementioned net_ratelimit() function actually prints this text in some circumstances. It's especially odd to see this when there isn't any other accompanying debug message. So, in sum, it doesn't make sense to have this function's current behavior, and instead it should match what every other debug family of functions in the kernel does with !DEBUG -- nothing. This patch replaces calls to net_dbg_ratelimited when !DEBUG with no_printk, keeping with the idiom of all the other debug print helpers. Also, though not strictly neccessary, it guards the call with an if (0) so that all evaluation of any arguments are sure to be compiled out. Signed-off-by: Jason A.

Nicolas Schichan says: ==================== test_bpf improvements Please find below the patch series with my latest changes to test_bpf. The first patch checks for unexpected NULL generated skbs before running the filter. The second patch adds the possibility for tests to generate fragmented skbs. The third patch tests LD_ABS and LD_IND on fragmented skbs. The fourth patch adds the possibility to restrict the tests being run by specifying the name/id/range of the test(s) to run via module parameters. The fifth patch tests LD_ABS and LD_IND on non fragmented skbs with various sizes and alignments. The sixth and final patch checks that the interpreter or JIT correctly resets A and X to 0. This serie is against today's net-next tree. Changes in V2: * move declaration of 'ptr' in if() block in patch 2/6. * fix various typos in patch 4/6 * rework default init of test_range array and cleanup exclude_test() return condition in patch 4/6. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When developping on the interpreter or a particular JIT, it can be interesting to restrict the tests list to a specific test or a particular range of tests. This patch adds the following module parameters to the test_bpf module: * test_name=<string>: only the specified named test will be run. * test_id=<number>: only the test with the specified id will be run (see the output of test_bpf without parameters to get the test id). * test_range=<number>,<number>: only the tests within IDs in the specified id range are run (see the output of test_bpf without parameters to get the test ids). Any invalid range, test id or test name will result in -EINVAL being returned and no tests being run.

Amir Vadai says: ==================== net/mlx5e: Driver updates 04-Aug-2015 This patchset introduces two features to the ConnectX-4 driver: Patch 8/8 ("Support physical port counters") exposes some hardware counters through ethtool. Rest of the patches are preparation and usage of what we call light-weight netdev open/close. Some flows that used to be in the ndo_open/stop are moved to the PCI probe/remove flows - i.e. we will make the netdev open/close operations more "light-weight". The benefits of this change are: 1) Reduce the execution time of the stop/open operations. 2) Avoid saving SW shadows of resource configurations that must persist through stop/open operations (e.g flow table steering rules), and avoid deleting/applying them from/to the device upon netdev stop/open. 3) Avoid synchronizing threads that access those resources with the netdev stop/open threads. Instead of create/destroy the resource during netdev open/stop, This patchset changes the behavior such that upon netdev stop, traffic is redirected to a "Drop RQ" (a RQ that silently drops, at the NIC HW level all incoming traffic). After redirecting the traffic, RX/TX software resources could be destroyed. During netdev open, the RX/TX rings are created and traffic is redirected to the RX rings. Patchset was applied and tested over commit ba7591d8 ("ebpf: add skb->hash to offset map for usage in {cls, act}_bpf or filters") ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Now that TIRs, TISs and flow tables are kept alive while the netdev is stopped (after executing ndo_stop()) we can do the following improvements: - Obsolete the active_vlans SW shadow. - Do not delete/add flow table rules upon ndo_stop/open. In addition to simplifying the flow, this change also fastens the ndo_open/close operations. - Obsolete synchronization of threads accessing the flow tables with the netdev stop/open threads.

Rename some functions that used to be invoked upon ndo_open/stop and are now invoked upon create/destroy_netdev() in order to better hint their place in the flow.

Generally an RX packet flows through the following objects: Flow table --> TIR --> RQT --> RQ Where: - TIR stands for "Transport Interface Receive", defining the RSS and LRO paramaters. - RQT stands for "RQ Table", implementing the RSS indirection table. - RQ stands for "Receive Queue" For flows that do not need LRO, nor RSS, the driver made a shortcut to the above RX flow by pointing to the RQ directly from the TIR, yielding this flow: Flow table --> TIR --> RQ In this commit we remove this shortcut by "inserting" a single-RQ RQT between the TIR and the RQ, i.e RX packets will reach the same RQ but will go through an RQT of size 1, pointing to just a single RQ. This way the RX traffic re-direction to/from the "Drop RQ" will be more uniform (AKA "one flow"), as it will involve only RQTs re-direction and no TIRs re-direction.

This adds the required changes to support the new multi-function mode in the offloaded storage protocols. Dave, Please consider applying this series to `net-next'. Do notice that this involves non-networking driver changes - but sending this as a single series seemed like the best approach as we had to have bnx2x changes to support the new functionality. If this is problematic, please tell us what's the preferred solution here.
