After enabling DMAC and CMAC, configure detail registers one by one. DMAC includes DLE (data link engine), packet preload engine, HFC (HCI flow control) for DMA channels, security egine and etc. CMAC includes scheduler, address CAM, RX filter, CCA control and etc. The SER IMR is to configure to help SER. When hardware TX/RX get abnormal, it raises an interrupt to firmware to determine if send C2H events to notify driver to reset PCI bus or call ieee80211_restart_hw(). Signed-off-by:

The sys_init is to enable hardware function block of DMAC (data-path MAC), CMAC (control-path MAC) and others called 'chip_func'. To understand the functionality of this function, we keep some functions as empty. The other is typ_fltr_opt that is to configure filter option to decide whether RX packets engine can forward packets to host or WiFi CPU. Signed-off-by:

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== pull-request: bpf-next 2023-12-18 This PR is larger than usual and contains changes in various parts of the kernel. The main changes are: 1) Fix kCFI bugs in BPF, from Peter Zijlstra. End result: all forms of indirect calls from BPF into kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y. 2) Introduce BPF token object, from Andrii Nakryiko. It adds an ability to delegate a subset of BPF features from privileged daemon (e.g., systemd) through special mount options for userns-bound BPF FS to a trusted unprivileged application. The design accommodates suggestions from Christian Brauner and Paul Moore. Example: $ sudo mkdir -p /sys/fs/bpf/token $ sudo mount -t bpf bpffs /sys/fs/bpf/token \ -o delegate_cmds=prog_load:MAP_CREATE \ -o delegate_progs=kprobe \ -o delegate_attachs=xdp 3) Various verifier improvements and fixes, from Andrii Nakryiko, Andrei Matei. - Complete precision tracking support for register spills - Fix verification of possibly-zero-sized stack accesses - Fix access to uninit stack slots - Track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single digit to 50-60% for some programs. - Fix verifier retval logic 4) Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints, from Larysa Zaremba. 5) Allocate BPF trampoline via bpf_prog_pack mechanism, from Song Liu. End result: better memory utilization and lower I$ miss for calls to BPF via BPF trampoline. 6) Fix race between BPF prog accessing inner map and parallel delete, from Hou Tao. 7) Add bpf_xdp_get_xfrm_state() kfunc, from Daniel Xu. It allows BPF interact with IPSEC infra. The intent is to support software RSS (via XDP) for the upcoming ipsec pcpu work. Experiments on AWS demonstrate single tunnel pcpu ipsec reaching line rate on 100G ENA nics. 8) Expand bpf_cgrp_storage to support cgroup1 non-attach, from Yafang Shao. 9) BPF file verification via fsverity, from Song Liu. It allows BPF progs get fsverity digest. * tag 'for-netdev' of https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/bpf/bpf-next: (164 commits) bpf: Ensure precise is reset to false in __mark_reg_const_zero() selftests/bpf: Add more uprobe multi fail tests bpf: Fail uprobe multi link with negative offset selftests/bpf: Test the release of map btf s390/bpf: Fix indirect trampoline generation selftests/bpf: Temporarily disable dummy_struct_ops test on s390 x86/cfi,bpf: Fix bpf_exception_cb() signature bpf: Fix dtor CFI cfi: Add CFI_NOSEAL() x86/cfi,bpf: Fix bpf_struct_ops CFI x86/cfi,bpf: Fix bpf_callback_t CFI x86/cfi,bpf: Fix BPF JIT call cfi: Flip headers selftests/bpf: Add test for abnormal cnt during multi-kprobe attachment selftests/bpf: Don't use libbpf_get_error() in kprobe_multi_test selftests/bpf: Add test for abnormal cnt during multi-uprobe attachment bpf: Limit the number of kprobes when attaching program to multiple kprobes bpf: Limit the number of uprobes when attaching program to multiple uprobes bpf: xdp: Register generic_kfunc_set with XDP programs selftests/bpf: utilize string values for delegate_xxx mount options ... ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231219000520.34178-1-alexei.starovoitov@gmail.comSigned-off-by:Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

It is safe to always start with imprecise SCALAR_VALUE register. Previously __mark_reg_const_zero() relied on caller to reset precise mark, but it's very error prone and we already missed it in a few places. So instead make __mark_reg_const_zero() reset precision always, as it's a safe default for SCALAR_VALUE. Explanation is basically the same as for why we are resetting (or rather not setting) precision in current state. If necessary, precision propagation will set it to precise correctly. As such, also remove a big comment about forward precision propagation in mark_reg_stack_read() and avoid unnecessarily setting precision to true after reading from STACK_ZERO stack. Again, precision propagation will correctly handle this, if that SCALAR_VALUE register will ever be needed to be precise. Reported-by:

Donald Hunter says: ==================== tools/net/ynl: Add 'sub-message' support to ynl This patchset adds a 'sub-message' attribute type to the netlink-raw schema and implements it in ynl. This provides support for kind-specific options attributes as used in rt_link and tc raw netlink families. A description of the new 'sub-message' attribute type and the corresponding sub-message definitions is provided in patch 3. The patchset includes updates to the rt_link spec and a new tc spec that make use of the new 'sub-message' attribute type. As mentioned in patch 4, encode support is not yet implemented in ynl and support for sub-message selectors at a different nest level from the key attribute is not yet supported. I plan to work on these in follow-up patches. Patches 1 is code cleanup in ynl Patches 2-4 add sub-message support to the schema and ynl with documentation updates. Patch 5 adds binary and pad support to structs in netlink-raw. Patches 6-8 contain specs that use the sub-message attribute type.

Donald Hunter authored
Add a 'sub-message' attribute type with a selector that supports polymorphic attribute formats for raw netlink families like tc. A sub-message attribute uses the value of another attribute as a selector key to choose the right sub-message format. For example if the following attribute has already been decoded: { "kind": "gre" } and we encounter the following attribute spec: - name: data type: sub-message sub-message: linkinfo-data-msg selector: kind Then we look for a sub-message definition called 'linkinfo-data-msg' and use the value of the 'kind' attribute i.e. 'gre' as the key to choose the correct format for the sub-message: sub-messages: name: linkinfo-data-msg formats: - value: bridge attribute-set: linkinfo-bridge-attrs - value: gre attribute-set: linkinfo-gre-attrs - value: geneve attribute-set: linkinfo-geneve-attrs This would decode the attribute value as a sub-message with the attribute-set called 'linkinfo-gre-attrs' as the attribute space. A sub-message can have an optional 'fixed-header' followed by zero or more attributes from an attribute-set. For example the following 'tc-options-msg' sub-message defines message formats that use a mixture of fixed-header, attribute-set or both together: sub-messages: - name: tc-options-msg formats: - value: bfifo fixed-header: tc-fifo-qopt - value: cake attribute-set: tc-cake-attrs - value: netem fixed-header: tc-netem-qopt attribute-set: tc-netem-attrs Reviewed-by: -

Currently the __uprobe_register will return 0 (success) when called with negative offset. The reason is that the call to register_for_each_vma and then build_map_info won't return error for negative offset. They just won't do anything - no matching vma is found so there's no registered breakpoint for the uprobe. I don't think we can change the behaviour of __uprobe_register and fail for negative uprobe offset, because apps might depend on that already. But I think we can still make the change and check for it on bpf multi link syscall level. Also moving the __get_user call and check for the offsets to the top of loop, to fail early without extra __get_user calls for ref_ctr_offset and cookie arrays. Signed-off-by:

When there is bpf_list_head or bpf_rb_root field in map value, the free of map btf and the free of map value may run concurrently and there may be use-after-free problem, so add two test cases to demonstrate it. And the use-after-free problem can been easily reproduced by using bpf_next tree and a KASAN-enabled kernel. The first test case tests the racing between the free of map btf and the free of array map. It constructs the racing by releasing the array map in the end after other ref-counter of map btf has been released. To delay the free of array map and make it be invoked after btf_free_rcu() is invoked, it stresses system_unbound_wq by closing multiple percpu array maps before it closes the array map. The second case tests the racing between the free of map btf and the free of inner map. Beside using the similar method as the first one does, it uses bpf_map_delete_elem() to delete the inner map and to defer the release of inner map after one RCU grace period. The reason for using two skeletons is to prevent the release of outer map and inner map in map_in_map_btf.c interfering the release of bpf map in normal_map_btf.c. Signed-off-by:

Current API for PHY package are limited to single address to configure global settings for the PHY package. It was found that some PHY package (for example the qca807x, a PHY package that is shipped with a bundle of 5 PHY) requires multiple PHY address to configure global settings. An example scenario is a PHY that have a dedicated PHY for PSGMII/serdes calibrarion and have a specific PHY in the package where the global PHY mode is set and affects every other PHY in the package. Change the API in the following way: - Change phy_package_join() to take the base addr of the PHY package instead of the global PHY addr. - Make __/phy_package_write/read() require an additional arg that select what global PHY address to use by passing the offset from the base addr passed on phy_package_join(). Each user of this API is updated to follow this new implementation following a pattern where an enum is defined to declare the offset of the addr. We also drop the check if shared is defined as any user of the phy_package_read/write is expected to use phy_package_join first. Misuse of this will correctly trigger a kernel panic for NULL pointer exception. Signed-off-by:

In scenarios with a higher number of small packets, it can significantly affect the success rate of coalescing.

In order to address the issues encountered with commit 1effe8ca ("skbuff: fix coalescing for page_pool fragment recycling"), the combination of the following condition was excluded from skb coalescing: from->pp_recycle = 1 from->cloned = 1 to->pp_recycle = 1 However, with page pool environments, the aforementioned combination can be quite common(ex. NetworkMananger may lead to the additional packet_type being registered, thus the cloning). In scenarios with a higher number of small packets, it can significantly affect the success rate of coalescing. For example, considering packets of 256 bytes size, our comparison of coalescing success rate is as follows: Without page pool: 70% With page pool: 13% Consequently, this has an impact on performance: Without page pool: 2.57 Gbits/sec With page pool: 2.26 Gbits/sec Therefore, it seems worthwhile to optimize this scenario and enable coalescing of this particular combination. To achieve this, we need to ensure the correct increment of the "from" SKB page's page pool reference count (pp_ref_count). Following this optimization, the success rate of coalescing measured in our environment has improved as follows: With page pool: 60% This success rate is approaching the rate achieved without using page pool, and the performance has also been improved: With page pool: 2.52 Gbits/sec Below is the performance comparison for small packets before and after this optimization. We observe no impact to packets larger than 4K. packet size before after improved (bytes) (Gbits/sec) (Gbits/sec) 128 1.19 1.27 7.13% 256 2.26 2.52 11.75% 512 4.13 4.81 16.50% 1024 6.17 6.73 9.05% 2048 14.54 15.47 6.45% 4096 25.44 27.87 9.52% Signed-off-by:
