Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-10-17 This series adds support for the new igc driver. The igc driver is the new client driver supporting the Intel I225 Ethernet Controller, which supports 2.5GbE speeds. The reason for creating a new client driver, instead of adding support for the new device in e1000e, is that the silicon behaves more like devices supported in igb driver. It also did not make sense to add a client part, to the igb driver which supports only 1GbE server parts. This initial set of patches is designed for basic support (i.e. link and pass traffic). Follow-on patch series will add more advanced support like VLAN, Wake-on-LAN, etc.. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

mlx5-updates-2018-10-17 ======================================================================== From Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com>: This series from Paul adds support to mlx5 e-switch tc offloading of multiple priorities and chains. This is made of four building blocks (along with few minor driver refactors): [1] Split FDB fast path prio to multiple namespaces Currently the FDB name-space contains two priorities, fast path (p0) and slow path (p1). The slow path contains the per representor SQ send-to-vport TX rule and the match-all RX miss rule. As a pre-step to support multi-chains and priorities, we split the FDB fast path to multiple namespaces (sub namespaces), each with multiple priorities. [2] E-Switch chains and priorities A chain is a group of priorities. We use the fdb parallel sub-namespaces to implement chains, and a flow table for each priority in them. Because these namespaces are parallel and in series to the slow path fdb, the chains aren't connected to each other (but to the slow path), and one must use a explicit goto action to reach a different chain. Flow tables for the priorities are created on demand and destroyed once not used. [3] Add a no-append flow insertion mode, use it for TC offloads Enhance the driver fs core, such that if a no-append flag is set by the caller, we add a new FTE, instead of appending the actions of the inserted rule when the same match already exists. For encap rules, we defer the HW offloading till we have a valid neighbor. This can result in the packet hitting a lower priority rule in the HW DP. Use the no-append API to push these packets to the slow path FDB table, so they go to the TC kernel DP as done before priorities where supported. [4] Offloading tc priorities and chains for eswitch flows Using [1], [2] and [3] above we add the support for offloading both chains and priorities. To get to a new chain, use the tc goto action. We support a fixed prio range 1-16, and chains 0-3. ============================================================================= Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

From Li RongQing. 2) We currently do a sizeof(element) instead of a sizeof(array) check when initializing the ovec array of the secpath. Currently this array can have only one element, so code is OK but error-prone. Change this to do a sizeof(array) check so that we can add more elements in future.

Neal Cardwell authored
Adjust TCP BBR for the new departure time pacing model in the recent commit ab408b6d ("tcp: switch tcp and sch_fq to new earliest departure time model"). With TSQ and pacing at lower layers, there are often several skbs queued in the pacing layer, and thus there is less data "in the network" than "in flight". With departure time pacing at lower layers (e.g. fq or potential future NICs), the data in the pacing layer now has a pre-scheduled ("baked-in") departure time that cannot be changed, even if the congestion control algorithm decides to use a new pacing rate. This means that there can be a non-trivial lag between when BBR makes a pacing rate change and when the inter-skb pacing delays change. After a pacing rate change, the number of packets in the network can gradually evolve to be higher or lower, depending on whether the sending rate is higher or lower than the delivery rate. Thus ignoring this lag can cause significant overshoot, with the flow ending up with too many or too few packets in the network. This commit changes BBR to adapt its pacing rate based on the amount of data in the network that it estimates has already been "baked in" by previous departure time decisions. We estimate the number of our packets that will be in the network at the earliest departure time (EDT) for the next skb scheduled as: in_network_at_edt = inflight_at_edt - (EDT - now) * bw If we're increasing the amount of data in the network ("in_network"), then we want to know if the transmit of the EDT skb will push in_network above the target, so our answer includes bbr_tso_segs_goal() from the skb departing at EDT. If we're decreasing in_network, then we want to know if in_network will sink too low just before the EDT transmit, so our answer does not include the segments from the skb departing at EDT. Why do we treat pacing_gain > 1.0 case and pacing_gain < 1.0 case differently? The in_network curve is a step function: in_network goes up on transmits, and down on ACKs. To accurately predict when in_network will go beyond our target value, this will happen on different events, depending on whether we're concerned about in_network potentially going too high or too low: o if pushing in_network up (pacing_gain > 1.0), then in_network goes above target upon a transmit event o if pushing in_network down (pacing_gain < 1.0), then in_network goes below target upon an ACK event This commit changes the BBR state machine to use this estimated "packets in network" value to make its decisions.

To support above - Mbox messaging support for sending msgs from AF to PF has been added. - Added mbox msgs so that PFs can register/unregister for link events. - Link notifications are sent to PF under two scenarioss. 1. When a asynchronous link change notification is received from firmware with notification flag turned on for that PF. 2. Upon notification turn on request, the current link status is send to the PF. Also added a new mailbox msg using which RVU PF/VF can retrieve their mapped CGX LMAC's current link info. Link info includes status, speed, duplex and lmac type.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Add VxLAN support This patchset adds support for VxLAN offload in the mlxsw driver. With regards to the forwarding plane, VxLAN support is composed from two main parts: Encapsulation and decapsulation. In the device, NVE encapsulation (and VxLAN in particular) takes place in the bridge. A packet can be encapsulated using VxLAN either because it hit an FDB entry that forwards it to the router with the IP of the remote VTEP or because it was flooded, in which case it is sent to a list of remote VTEPs (in addition to local ports). In either case, the VNI is derived from the filtering identifier (FID) the packet was classified to at ingress and the underlay source IP is taken from a device global configuration. VxLAN decapsulation takes place in the underlay router, where packets that hit a local route that corresponds to the source IP of the local VTEP are decapsulated and injected to the bridge. The packets are classified to a FID based on the VNI they came with. The first six patches export the required APIs in the VxLAN and mlxsw drivers in order to allow for the introduction of the NVE core in the next two patches. The NVE core is designed to support a variety of NVE encapsulations (e.g., VxLAN, NVGRE) and different ASICs, but currently only VxLAN and Spectrum are supported. Spectrum-2 support will be added in the future. The last 10 patches add support for VxLAN decapsulation and encapsulation and include the addition of the required switchdev APIs in the VxLAN driver. These APIs allow capable drivers to get a notification about the addition / deletion of FDB entries to / from the VxLAN's FDB. Subsequent patchset will add selftests (generic and mlxsw-specific), data plane learning, FDB extack and vetoing and support for VLAN-aware bridges (one VNI per VxLAN device model). v2: * Implement netif_is_vxlan() using rtnl_link_ops->kind (Jakub & Stephen) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In the device, VxLAN encapsulation takes place in the FDB table where certain {MAC, FID} entries are programmed with an underlay unicast IP. MAC addresses that are not programmed in the FDB are flooded to the relevant local ports and also to a list of underlay unicast IPs that are programmed using the all zeros MAC address in the VxLAN driver. One difference between the hardware and software data paths is the fact that in the software data path there are two FDB lookups prior to the encapsulation of the packet. First in the bridge's FDB table using {MAC, VID} and another in the VxLAN's FDB table using {MAC, VNI}. Therefore, when a new VxLAN FDB entry is notified, it is only programmed to the device if there is a corresponding entry in the bridge's FDB table. Similarly, when a new bridge FDB entry pointing to the VxLAN device is notified, it is only programmed to the device if there is a corresponding entry in the VxLAN's FDB table. Note that the above scheme will result in a discrepancy between both data paths if only one FDB table is populated in the software data path. For example, if only the bridge's FDB is populated with an entry pointing to a VxLAN device, then a packet hitting the entry will only be flooded by the kernel to remote VTEPs whereas the device will also flood the packets to other local ports member in the VLAN.

Enslavement of VxLAN devices to offloaded bridges was never forbidden by mlxsw, but this patch makes sure the required configuration is performed in order to allow VxLAN encapsulation and decapsulation to take place in the device. The patch handles both the case where a VxLAN device is enslaved to an already offloaded bridge and the case where the first mlxsw port is enslaved to a bridge that already has VxLAN device configured. Invalid configurations are sanitized and an error string is returned via extack. Since encapsulation and decapsulation do not occur when the VxLAN device is down, the driver makes sure to enable / disable these functionalities based on NETDEV_PRE_UP and NETDEV_DOWN events. Note that NETDEV_PRE_UP is used in favor of NETDEV_UP, as the former allows to veto the operation, if necessary.

Currently, an FDB entry only ceases being offloaded when it is deleted. This changes with VxLAN encapsulation. Devices capable of performing VxLAN encapsulation usually have only one FDB table, unlike the software data path which has two - one in the bridge driver and another in the VxLAN driver. Therefore, bridge FDB entries pointing to a VxLAN device are only offloaded if there is a corresponding entry in the VxLAN FDB. Allow clearing the offload indication in case the corresponding entry was deleted from the VxLAN FDB.

Offloaded bridge FDB entries are marked with NTF_OFFLOADED. Implement a similar mechanism for VXLAN, where a given remote destination can be marked as offloaded. To that end, introduce a new event, SWITCHDEV_VXLAN_FDB_OFFLOADED, through which the marking is communicated to the vxlan driver. To identify which RDST should be marked as offloaded, an switchdev_notifier_vxlan_fdb_info is passed to the listeners. The "offloaded" flag in that object determines whether the offloaded mark should be set or cleared. When sending offloaded FDB entries over netlink, mark them with NTF_OFFLOADED.

When offloading VXLAN devices, drivers need to know about events in VXLAN FDB database. Since VXLAN models a bridge, it is natural to distribute the VXLAN FDB notifications using the pre-existing switchdev notification mechanism. To that end, introduce two new notification types: SWITCHDEV_VXLAN_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE and SWITCHDEV_VXLAN_FDB_DEL_TO_DEVICE. Introduce a new function, vxlan_fdb_switchdev_call_notifiers() to send the new notifier types, and a struct switchdev_notifier_vxlan_fdb_info to communicate the details of the FDB entry under consideration.
