mlx5e-updates-2018-09-05

This series provides updates to mlx5 ethernet driver.

1) Starting with a four patches series to optimize flow counters updates,
From Vlad Buslov:
==============================================

By default mlx5 driver updates cached counters each second. Update function
consumes noticeable amount of CPU resources. The goal of this patch series
is to optimize update function.

Investigation revealed following bottlenecks in fs counters
implementation:
 1) Update code(scheduled each second) iterates over all counters twice.
 (first for finding and deleting counters that are marked for deletion,
 second iteration is for actually updating the counters)
 2) Counters are stored in rb tree. Linear iteration over all rb tree
 elements(rb_next in profiling data) consumed ~65% of time spent in
 update function.

Following optimizations were implemented:
 1) Instead of just marking counters for deletion, store them in
 standalone list. This removes first iteration over whole counters tree.
 2) Store counters in sorted list to optimize traversing them and remove
 calls to rb_next.

First implementation of these changes caused degradation of performance,
instead of improving it. Investigation revealed that there first cache
line of struct mlx5_fc is full and adding anything to it causes amount
of cache misses to double. To mitigate that, following refactorings were
implemented:
 - Change 'addlist' list type from double linked to single linked. This
 allowes to get free space for one additional pointer that is used to
 store deletion list(optimization 1)
 - Substitute rb tree with idr. Idr is non-intrusive data structure and
 doesn't require adding any new members to struct mlx5_fc. Use free
 space that became available for double linked sorted list that is used
 for traversing all counters. (optimization 2)

Described changes reduced CPU time spent in mlx5_fc_stats_work from 70%
to 44%. (global perf profile mode)
============================================

The rest of the series are misc updates:

2) From Kamal, Move mlx5e_priv_flags into en_ethtool.c, to avoid a
compilation warning.

3) From Roi Dayan, Move Q counters allocation and drop RQ to init_rx profile
function to avoid allocating Q counters when not required.

4) From Shay Agroskin, Replace PTP clock lock from RW lock to seq lock.
Almost double the packet rate when timestamping is active on multiple TX
queues.

5) From: Natali Shechtman, set ECN for received packets using CQE indication.

6) From: Alaa Hleihel, don't set CHECKSUM_COMPLETE on SCTP packets.
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE is not applicable to SCTP protocol.

net: dsa: b53: SerDes support

This patch series adds support for the SerDes found on NorthStar Plus

other similar designs).

Changes in v3:

- properly hunk the request_threaded_irq() bits into patch #2

Changes in v2:

- migrate to threaded interrupt (Andrew)
- fixed a case where MLO_AN_FIXED's mac_config would still call into
  the serdes_config callback
- added an additional check on the phylink interface in mac_config

Add support for the Northstar Plus SerDes which is accessed through a

probably will not want to use, make it a configurable option with a
default on ARCH_BCM_NSP where it is the most useful currently.

The SerDes supports both SGMII and 1000baseX modes for both lanes, and
2500baseX for one of the lanes, and is internally looking like a
seemingly standard MII PHY, except for the few bits that got repurposed.

rtnetlink: add IFA_TARGET_NETNSID for RTM_GETADDR

This iteration should mainly addresses the suggestion to use
IFA_TARGET_NETNSID as the property name. Additionally, an an alias for
the already existing IFLA_IF_NETNSID property is added.

Note that two additional cleanup patches (8\9 and 9\9) were added to
address concerns raised that passing more than 6 arguments to a function
will cause additional variables to be pushed onto the stack instead of
being placed into registers. The way I addressed this is by introducing
two new struct inet{6}_fill_args that are used to pass common
information down to inet{6}_fill_if*() functions shortening all those
functions to three pointer arguments.
If this is something more people than Kirill find useful they can be
kept if not they can simply be dropped in later iterations of this
series or when merging.

Here is a short overview:
1. Rename from IFA_IF_NETNSID to IFA_TARGET_NETNSID.
2. Add IFLA_TARGET_NETNSID as an alias for IFA_IFLA_NETNSID and switch
   all occurrences over to the new alias.
3. Add inet4_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in
   inet_fill_if*() functions.
4. Add inet6_fill_args struct to avoid passing more than 6 arguments in
   inet_fill_if*() functions.

The only functional change is the export of rtnl_get_net_ns_capable()
which is needed in case ipv6 is built as a module.

Note, I did not change the property name to IFA_TARGET_NSID as there was
no clear agreement what would be preferred. My personal preference is to
keep the IFA_IF_NETNSID name because it aligns naturally with the
IFLA_IF_NETNSID property for RTM_*LINK requests. Jiri seems to prefer
this name too.
However, if there is agreement that another property name makes more
sense I'm happy to send a v2 that changes this.

To test this patchset I performed 1 million getifaddrs() requests
against a network namespace containing 5 interfaces (lo, eth{0-4}). The
first test used a network namespace aware getifaddrs() implementation I
wrote and the second test used the traditional setns() + getifaddrs()
method. The results show that this patchsets allows userspace to cut
retrieval time in half:
1. netns_getifaddrs():      82 microseconds
2. setns() + getifaddrs(): 162 microseconds

A while back we introduced and enabled IFLA_IF_NETNSID in
RTM_{DEL,GET,NEW}LINK requests (cf. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]). This has led
to signficant performance increases since it allows userspace to avoid
taking the hit of a setns(netns_fd, CLONE_NEWNET), then getting the
interfaces from the netns associated with the netns_fd. Especially when a
lot of network namespaces are in use, using setns() becomes increasingly
problematic when performance matters.
Usually, RTML_GETLINK requests are followed by RTM_GETADDR requests (cf.
getifaddrs() style functions and friends). But currently, RTM_GETADDR
requests do not support a similar property like IFLA_IF_NETNSID for
RTM_*LINK requests.
This is problematic since userspace can retrieve interfaces from another
network namespace by sending a IFLA_IF_NETNSID property along but
RTM_GETLINK request but is still forced to use the legacy setns() style of
retrieving interfaces in RTM_GETADDR requests.

The goal of this series is to make it possible to perform RTM_GETADDR
requests on different network namespaces. To this end a new IFA_IF_NETNSID
property for RTM_*ADDR requests is introduced. It can be used to send a
network namespace identifier along in RTM_*ADDR requests.  The network
namespace identifier will be used to retrieve the target network namespace
in which the request is supposed to be fulfilled.  This aligns the behavior
of RTM_*ADDR requests with the behavior of RTM_*LINK requests.

- The caller must have assigned a valid network namespace identifier for
  the target network namespace.
- The caller must have CAP_NET_ADMIN in the owning user namespace of the
  target network namespace.

- Backwards Compatibility:
  If userspace wants to determine whether ipv6 RTM_GETADDR requests

Currently, the only way to ignore outgoing packets on a packet socket is
via the BPF filter.  With MSG_ZEROCOPY, packets that are looped into
AF_PACKET are copied in dev_queue_xmit_nit(), and this copy happens even
if the filter run from packet_rcv() would reject them.  So the presence
of a packet socket on the interface takes away the benefits of
MSG_ZEROCOPY, even if the packet socket is not interested in outgoing
packets.  (Even when MSG_ZEROCOPY is not used, the skb is unnecessarily
cloned, but the cost for that is much lower.)

Add a socket option to allow AF_PACKET sockets to ignore outgoing
packets to solve this.  Note that the *BSDs already have something
similar: BIOCSSEESENT/BIOCSDIRECTION and BIOCSDIRFILT.

Changed "priv.clock.lock" lock from 'rw_lock' to 'seq_lock'
in order to improve packet rate performance.

Tested on Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 v2 @ 2.20GHz.
Sent 64b packets between two peers connected by ConnectX-5,
and measured packet rate for the receiver in three modes:
	no time-stamping (base rate)
	time-stamping using rw_lock (old lock) for critical region
	time-stamping using seq_lock (new lock) for critical region
Only the receiver time stamped its packets.

The measured packet rate improvements are:

	Single flow (multiple TX rings to single RX ring):
		without timestamping:	  4.26 (M packets)/sec
		with rw-lock (old lock):  4.1  (M packets)/sec
		with seq-lock (new lock): 4.16 (M packets)/sec
		1.46% improvement

	Multiple flows (multiple TX rings to six RX rings):
		without timestamping: 	  22   (M packets)/sec
		with rw-lock (old lock):  11.7 (M packets)/sec
		with seq-lock (new lock): 21.3 (M packets)/sec
		82.05% improvement

The packet rate improvement is due to the lack of atomic operations
for the 'readers' by the seq-lock.
Since there are much more 'readers' than 'writers' contention
on this lock, almost all atomic operations are saved.
this results in a dramatic decrease in overall
cache misses.
