Menglong Dong says: ==================== net: tipc: fix FB_MTU eat two pages and do some code cleanup In the first patch, FB_MTU is redefined to make sure data size will not exceed PAGE_SIZE. Besides, I removed the alignment for buf_size in tipc_buf_acquire, because skb_alloc_fclone will do the alignment job. In the second patch, I removed align() in msg.c and replace it with ALIGN(). Changes since V5: - remove blank line after Fixes in commit log in the first patch Changes since V4: - remove ONE_PAGE_SKB_SZ and replace it with one_page_mtu in the first patch. - fix some code style problems for the second patch. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

FB_MTU is used in 'tipc_msg_build()' to alloc smaller skb when memory allocation fails, which can avoid unnecessary sending failures. The value of FB_MTU now is 3744, and the data size will be: (3744 + SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info)) + \ SKB_DATA_ALIGN(BUF_HEADROOM + BUF_TAILROOM + 3)) which is larger than one page(4096), and two pages will be allocated. To avoid it, replace '3744' with a calculation: (PAGE_SIZE - SKB_DATA_ALIGN(BUF_OVERHEAD) - \ SKB_DATA_ALIGN(sizeof(struct skb_shared_info))) What's more, alloc_skb_fclone() will call SKB_DATA_ALIGN for data size, and it's not necessary to make alignment for buf_size in tipc_buf_acquire(). So, just remove it. Fixes: 4c94cc2d ("tipc: fall back to smaller MTU if allocation of local send skb fails") Signed-off-by: -

Guillaume Nault says: ==================== net: reset MAC header consistently across L3 virtual devices Some virtual L3 devices, like vxlan-gpe and gre (in collect_md mode), reset the MAC header pointer after they parsed the outer headers. This accurately reflects the fact that the decapsulated packet is pure L3 packet, as that makes the MAC header 0 bytes long (the MAC and network header pointers are equal). However, many L3 devices only adjust the network header after decapsulation and leave the MAC header pointer to its original value. This can confuse other parts of the networking stack, like TC, which then considers the outer headers as one big MAC header. This patch series makes the following L3 tunnels behave like VXLAN-GPE: bareudp, ipip, sit, gre, ip6gre, ip6tnl, gtp. The case of gre is a bit special. It already resets the MAC header pointer in collect_md mode, so only the classical mode needs to be adjusted. However, gre also has a special case that expects the MAC header pointer to keep pointing to the outer header even after decapsulation. Therefore, patch 4 keeps an exception for this case. Ideally, we'd centralise the call to skb_reset_mac_header() in ip_tunnel_rcv(), to avoid manual calls in ipip (patch 2), sit (patch 3) and gre (patch 4). That's unfortunately not feasible currently, because of the gre special case discussed above that precludes us from resetting the MAC header unconditionally. The original motivation is to redirect bareudp packets to Ethernet devices (as described in patch 1). The rest of this series aims at bringing consistency across all L3 devices (apart from gre's special case unfortunately). Note: the gtp patch results from pure code inspection and has been compiled tested only. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Reset the mac_header pointer even when the tunnel transports only L3 data (in the ARPHRD_ETHER case, this is already done by eth_type_trans). This prevents other parts of the stack from mistakenly accessing the outer header after the packet has been decapsulated. In practice, this allows to push an Ethernet header to ipip6, ip6ip6, mplsip6 or ip6gre packets and redirect them to an Ethernet device: $ tc filter add dev ip6tnl0 ingress matchall \ action vlan push_eth dst_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:01 \ src_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:00 \ action mirred egress redirect dev eth0 Without this patch, push_eth refuses to add an ethernet header because the skb appears to already have a MAC header.

Commit e271c7b4 ("gre: do not keep the GRE header around in collect medata mode") did reset the mac_header for the collect_md case. Let's extend this behaviour to classical gre devices as well. ipgre_header_parse() seems to be the only case that requires mac_header to point to the outer header. We can detect this case accurately by checking ->header_ops. For all other cases, we can reset mac_header. This allows to push an Ethernet header to ipgre packets and redirect them to an Ethernet device: $ tc filter add dev gre0 ingress matchall \ action vlan push_eth dst_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:01 \ src_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:00 \ action mirred egress redirect dev eth0 Before this patch, this worked only for collect_md gre devices. Now this works for regular gre devices as well. Only the special case of gre devices that use ipgre_header_ops isn't supported. Signed-off-by:

Even though sit transports L3 data (IPv6, IPv4 or MPLS) packets, it needs to reset the mac_header pointer, so that other parts of the stack don't mistakenly access the outer header after the packet has been decapsulated. There are two rx handlers to modify: ipip6_rcv() for the ip6ip mode and sit_tunnel_rcv() which is used to re-implement the ipip and mplsip modes of ipip.ko. This allows to push an Ethernet header to sit packets and redirect them to an Ethernet device: $ tc filter add dev sit0 ingress matchall \ action vlan push_eth dst_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:01 \ src_mac 00:00:5e:00:53:00 \ action mirred egress redirect dev eth0 Without this patch, push_eth refuses to add an ethernet header because the skb appears to already have a MAC header.

The newly implemented fwnode_mdbiobus_register turned out to be problematic - in case the fwnode_/of_/acpi_mdio are built as modules, a dependency cycle can be observed during the depmod phase of modules_install, eg.: depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: fwnode_mdio -> of_mdio -> fwnode_mdio depmod: ERROR: Found 2 modules in dependency cycles! OR: depmod: ERROR: Cycle detected: acpi_mdio -> fwnode_mdio -> acpi_mdio depmod: ERROR: Found 2 modules in dependency cycles! A possible solution could be to rework fwnode_mdiobus_register, so that to merge the contents of acpi_mdiobus_register and of_mdiobus_register. However feasible, such change would be very intrusive and affect huge amount of the of_mdiobus_register users. Since there are currently 2 users of ACPI and MDIO (xgmac_mdio and mvmdio), withdraw the fwnode_mdbiobus_register and roll back to a simple 'if' condition in affected drivers.

This patch adds build and driver logic for the "mlxbf_gige" Ethernet driver from Mellanox Technologies. The second generation BlueField SoC from Mellanox supports an out-of-band GigaBit Ethernet management port to the Arm subsystem. This driver supports TCP/IP network connectivity for that port, and provides back-end routines to handle basic ethtool requests. The driver interfaces to the Gigabit Ethernet block of BlueField SoC via MMIO accesses to registers, which contain control information or pointers describing transmit and receive resources. There is a single transmit queue, and the port supports transmit ring sizes of 4 to 256 entries. There is a single receive queue, and the port supports receive ring sizes of 32 to 32K entries. The transmit and receive rings are allocated from DMA coherent memory. There is a 16-bit producer and consumer index per ring to denote software ownership and hardware ownership, respectively. The main driver logic such as probe(), remove(), and netdev ops are in "mlxbf_gige_main.c". Logic in "mlxbf_gige_rx.c" and "mlxbf_gige_tx.c" handles the packet processing for receive and transmit respectively. The logic in "mlxbf_gige_ethtool.c" supports the handling of some basic ethtool requests: get driver info, get ring parameters, get registers, and get statistics. The logic in "mlxbf_gige_mdio.c" is the driver controlling the Mellanox BlueField hardware that interacts with a PHY device via MDIO/MDC pins. This driver does the following: - At driver probe time, it configures several BlueField MDIO parameters such as sample rate, full drive, voltage and MDC - It defines functions to read and write MDIO registers and registers the MDIO bus. - It defines the phy interrupt handler reporting a link up/down status change - This driver's probe is invoked from the main driver logic while the phy interrupt handler is registered in ndo_open. Driver limitations - Only supports 1Gbps speed - Only supports GMII protocol - Supports maximum packet size of 2KB - Does not support scatter-gather buffering Testing - Successful build of kernel for ARM64, ARM32, X86_64 - Tested ARM64 build on FastModels & Palladium - Tested ARM64 build on several Mellanox boards that are built with the BlueField-2 SoC. The testing includes coverage in the areas of networking (e.g. ping, iperf, ifconfig, route), file transfers (e.g. SCP), and various ethtool options relevant to this driver.

This patch is modeled after one by Scott Peterson for i40e. Add tracepoints to the driver, via a new file ice_trace.h and some new trace calls added in interesting places in the driver. Add some tracing for DIMLIB to help debug interrupt moderation problems. Performance should not be affected, and this can be very useful for debugging and adding new trace events to paths in the future. Note eBPF programs can attach to these events, as well as perf can count them since we're attaching to the events subsystem in the kernel. Co-developed-by:

The Broadcom UniMAC MDIO bus from mdio-bcm-unimac module comes too late. So, GENET cannot find the ethernet PHY on UniMAC MDIO bus. This leads GENET fail to attach the PHY as following log: bcmgenet fd580000.ethernet: GENET 5.0 EPHY: 0x0000 ... could not attach to PHY bcmgenet fd580000.ethernet eth0: failed to connect to PHY uart-pl011 fe201000.serial: no DMA platform data libphy: bcmgenet MII bus: probed ... unimac-mdio unimac-mdio.-19: Broadcom UniMAC MDIO bus It is not just coming too late, there is also no way for the module loader to figure out the dependency between GENET and its MDIO bus driver unless we provide this MODULE_SOFTDEP hint. This patch adds the soft dependency to load mdio-bcm-unimac module before genet module to fix this issue.

Currently the PLPMUTD probe will stop for a long period (interval * 30) after it enters search complete state. If there's a pmtu change on the route path, it takes a long time to be aware if the ICMP TooBig packet is lost or filtered. As it says in rfc8899#section-4.3: "A DPLPMTUD method MUST NOT rely solely on this method." (ICMP PTB message). This patch is to enable the other method for search complete state: "A PL can use the DPLPMTUD probing mechanism to periodically generate probe packets of the size of the current PLPMTU." With this patch, the probe will continue with the current pmtu every 'interval' until the PMTU_RAISE_TIMER 'timeout', which we implement by adding raise_count to raise the probe size when it counts to 30 and removing the SCTP_PL_COMPLETE check for PMTU_RAISE_TIMER.

Bailey Forrest says: ==================== gve: Introduce DQO descriptor format DQO is the descriptor format for our next generation virtual NIC. The existing descriptor format will be referred to as "GQI" in the patch set. One major change with DQO is it uses dual descriptor rings for both TX and RX queues. The TX path uses a TX queue to send descriptors to HW, and receives packet completion events on a TX completion queue. The RX path posts buffers to HW using an RX buffer queue and receives incoming packets on an RX queue. One important note is that DQO descriptors and doorbells are little endian. We continue to use the existing big endian control plane infrastructure. The general format of the patch series is: - Refactor existing code/data structures to be shared by DQO - Expand admin queues to support DQO device setup - Expand data structures and device setup to support DQO - Add logic to setup DQO queues - Implement datapath ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The RX queue has an array of `gve_rx_buf_state_dqo` objects. All allocated pages have an associated buf_state object. When a buffer is posted on the RX buffer queue, the buffer ID will be the buf_state's index into the RX queue's array. On packet reception, the RX queue will have one descriptor for each buffer associated with a received packet. Each RX descriptor will have a buffer_id that was posted on the buffer queue. Notable mentions: - We use a default buffer size of 2048 bytes. Based on page size, we may post separate sections of a single page as separate buffers. - The driver holds an extra reference on pages passed up the receive path with an skb and keeps these pages on a list. When posting new buffers to the NIC, we check if any of these pages has only our reference, or another buffer sized segment of the page has no references. If so, it is free to reuse. This page recycling approach is a common netdev optimization that reduces page alloc/free calls. - Pages in the free list have a page_count bias in order to avoid an atomic increment of pagecount every time we attempt to reuse a page. # references = page_count() - bias - In order to track when a page is safe to reuse, we keep track of the last offset which had a single SKB reference. When this occurs, it implies that every single other offset is reusable. Otherwise, we don't know if offsets can be safely reused. - We maintain two free lists of pages. List #1 (recycled_buf_states) contains pages we know can be reused right away. List #2 (used_buf_states) contains pages which cannot be used right away. We only attempt to get pages from list #2 when list #1 is empty. We only attempt to use a small fixed number pages from list #2 before giving up and allocating a new page. Both lists are FIFOs in hope that by the time we attempt to reuse a page, the references were dropped. Signed-off-by:

TX SKBs will have their buffers DMA mapped with the device. Each buffer will have at least one TX descriptor associated. Each SKB will also have a metadata descriptor. Each TX queue maintains an array of `gve_tx_pending_packet_dqo` objects. Every TX SKB will have an associated pending_packet object. A TX SKB's descriptors will use its pending_packet's index as the completion tag, which will be returned on the TX completion queue. The device implements a "flow-miss model". Most packets will simply receive a packet completion. The flow-miss system may choose to process a packet based on its contents. A TX packet which experiences a flow miss would receive a miss completion followed by a later reinjection completion. The miss-completion is received when the packet starts to be processed by the flow-miss system and the reinjection completion is received when the flow-miss system completes processing the packet and sends it on the wire. Notable mentions: - Buffers may be freed after receiving the miss-completion, but in order to avoid packet reordering, we do not complete the SKB until receiving the reinjection completion. - The driver must robustly handle the unlikely scenario where a miss completion does not have an associated reinjection completion. This is accomplished by maintaining a list of packets which have a pending reinjection completion. After a short timeout (5 seconds), the SKB and buffers are released and the pending_packet is moved to a second list which has a longer timeout (60 seconds), where the pending_packet will not be reused. When the longer timeout elapses, the driver may assume the reinjection completion would never be received and the pending_packet may be reused. - Completion handling is triggered by an interrupt and is done in the NAPI poll function. Because the TX path and completion exist in different threading contexts they maintain their own lists for free pending_packet objects. The TX path uses a lock-free approach to steal the list from the completion path. - Both the TSO context and general context descriptors have metadata bytes. The device requires that if multiple descriptors contain the same field, each descriptor must have the same value set for that field. Signed-off-by:
