We sometimes run into situations where a soft/hard reset of the adapter takes a long time or fails to complete. Having additional messages that include important adapter state info will hopefully help understand what is happening, reduce the guess work and minimize requests to reproduce problems with debug patches.

Julian Wiedmann says: ==================== s390/qeth: updates 2020-12-07 please apply the following patch series for qeth to netdev's net-next tree. Some sysfs cleanups (with the prep work in ccwgroup acked by Heiko), and a few improvements to the code that deals with async TX completion notifications for IQD devices. This also brings the missing patch from the previous net-next submission. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When qeth_qdio_handle_aob() frees dangling allocations in the notified TX buffer, there are rare tear-down cases where qeth_drain_output_queue() would later call qeth_clear_output_buffer() for the same buffer - and thus end up walking the buffer a second time to check for dangling kmem_cache allocations. Luckily current code previously scrubs such a buffer, so qeth_clear_output_buffer() would find buf->buffer->element[i].addr as NULL and not do anything. But this is fragile, and we can easily improve it by consistently clearing the ->is_header flag after freeing the allocation. Signed-off-by:

Julian Wiedmann authored
For TX buffers that require an additional async notification via QAOB, the TX completion code can now manage all the necessary processing if the notification has already occurred (or is occurring concurrently). In such cases we can avoid replacing the metadata that is associated with the buffer's slot on the ring, and just keep using the current one. As qeth_clear_output_buffer() will also handle any kmem cache-allocated memory that was mapped into the TX buffer, qeth_qdio_handle_aob() doesn't need to worry about it. While at it, also remove the unneeded forward declaration for qeth_init_qdio_out_buf(). Signed-off-by:

All qeth devices have a minimum set of sysfs attributes, and non-OSN devices share a group of additional attributes. Depending on whether the device is forced to use a specific discipline, the device_type then specifies further attributes. Shift the common attributes into dev->groups, so that the device_type only contains the discipline-specific attributes. This avoids exposing the common attributes to the disciplines, and nicely cleans up our sysfs code. While replacing the qeth_l*_*_device_attributes() helpers, switch from sysfs_*_groups() to the more generic device_*_groups(). Signed-off-by:

Bus drivers have their own way of describing the sysfs attributes that all devices on a bus should provide. Switch ccwgroup_attr_groups over to use bus->dev_groups, and thus free up dev->groups for usage by the ccwgroup device drivers. While adjusting the attribute naming, use ATTRIBUTE_GROUPS() to get rid of some boilerplate code. Signed-off-by:

Arjun Roy says: ==================== Perf. optimizations for TCP Recv. Zerocopy This patchset contains several optimizations for TCP Recv. Zerocopy. Summarized: 1. It is possible that a read payload is not exactly page aligned - that there may exist "straggler" bytes that we cannot map into the caller's address space cleanly. For this, we allow the caller to provide as argument a "hybrid copy buffer", turning getsockopt(TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE) into a "hybrid" operation that allows the caller to avoid a subsequent recvmsg() call to read the stragglers. 2. Similarly, for "small" read payloads that are either below the size of a page, or small enough that remapping pages is not a performance win - we allow the user to short-circuit the remapping operations entirely and simply copy into the buffer provided. Some of the patches in the middle of this set are refactors to support this "short-circuiting" optimization. 3. We allow the user to provide a hint that performing a page zap operation (and the accompanying TLB shootdown) may not be necessary, for the provided region that the kernel will attempt to map pages into. This allows us to avoid this expensive operation while holding the socket lock, which provides a significant performance advantage. With all of these changes combined, "medium" sized receive traffic (multiple tens to few hundreds of KB) see significant efficiency gains when using TCP receive zerocopy instead of regular recvmsg(). For example, with RPC-style traffic with 32KB messages, there is a roughly 15% efficiency improvement when using zerocopy. Without these changes, there is a roughly 60-70% efficiency reduction with such messages when employing zerocopy. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20201202225349.935284-1-arjunroy.kdev@gmail.comSigned-off-by:

Zapping pages is required only if we are calling vm_insert_page into a region where pages had previously been mapped. Receive zerocopy allows reusing such regions, and hitherto called zap_page_range() before calling vm_insert_page() in that range. zap_page_range() can also be triggered from userspace with madvise(MADV_DONTNEED). If userspace is configured to call this before reusing a segment, or if there was nothing mapped at this virtual address to begin with, we can avoid calling zap_page_range() under the socket lock. That said, if userspace does not do that, then we are still responsible for calling zap_page_range(). This patch adds a flag that the user can use to hint to the kernel that a zap is not required. If the flag is not set, or if an older user application does not have a flags field at all, then the kernel calls zap_page_range as before. Also, if the flag is set but a zap is still required, the kernel performs that zap as necessary. Thus incorrectly indicating that a zap can be avoided does not change the correctness of operation. It also increases the batchsize for vm_insert_pages and prefetches the page struct for the batch since we're about to bump the refcount. An alternative mechanism could be to not have a flag, assume by default a zap is not needed, and fall back to zapping if needed. However, this would harm performance for older applications for which a zap is necessary, and thus we implement it with an explicit flag so newer applications can opt in. When using RPC-style traffic with medium sized (tens of KB) RPCs, this change yields an efficency improvement of about 30% for QPS/CPU usage. Signed-off-by:

Set zerocopy hint, event when falling back to copy, so that the pending data can be efficiently received using zerocopy when possible. Signed-off-by:

Arjun Roy authored
Sometimes, we may call tcp receive zerocopy when inq is 0, or inq < PAGE_SIZE, or inq is generally small enough that it is cheaper to copy rather than remap pages. In these cases, we may want to either return early (inq=0) or attempt to use the provided copy buffer to simply copy the received data. This allows us to save both system call overhead and the latency of acquiring mmap_sem in read mode for cases where it would be useless to do so. This patchset enables this behaviour by: 1. Returning quickly if inq is 0. 2. Attempting to perform a regular copy if a hybrid copybuffer is provided and it is large enough to absorb all available bytes. 3. Return quickly if no such buffer was provided and there are less than PAGE_SIZE bytes available. For small RPC ping-pong workloads, normally we would have 1 getsockopt(), 1 recvmsg() and 1 sendmsg() call per RPC. With this change, we remove the recvmsg() call entirely, reducing the syscall overhead by about 33%. In testing with small (hundreds of bytes) RPC traffic, this yields a syscall reduction of about 33% and an efficiency gain of about 3-5% when defined as QPS/CPU Util. Signed-off-by:

Refactor skb frag fast-forwarding for tcp receive zerocopy. This is part of a patch set that introduces short-circuited hybrid copies for small receive operations, which results in roughly 33% fewer syscalls for small RPC scenarios. skb_advance_to_frag(), given a skb and an offset into the skb, iterates from the first frag for the skb until we're at the frag specified by the offset. Assuming the offset provided refers to how many bytes in the skb are already read, the returned frag points to the next frag we may read from, while offset_frag is set to the number of bytes from this frag that we have already read. If frag is not null and offset_frag is equal to 0, then we may be able to map this frag's page into the process address space with vm_insert_page(). However, if offset_frag is not equal to 0, then we cannot do so. Signed-off-by:

Refactor tcp_recvmsg() by splitting it into locked and unlocked portions. Callers already holding the socket lock and not using ERRQUEUE/cmsg/busy polling can simply call tcp_recvmsg_locked().

When TCP receive zerocopy does not successfully map the entire requested space, it outputs a 'hint' that the caller should recvmsg(). Augment zerocopy to accept a user buffer that it tries to copy this hint into - if it is possible to copy the entire hint, it will do so. This elides a recvmsg() call for received traffic that isn't exactly page-aligned in size. This was tested with RPC-style traffic of arbitrary sizes. Normally, each received message required at least one getsockopt() call, and one recvmsg() call for the remaining unaligned data. With this change, almost all of the recvmsg() calls are eliminated, leading to a savings of about 25%-50% in number of system calls for RPC-style workloads. Signed-off-by:

Andrea Mayer says: ==================== seg6: add support for SRv6 End.DT4/DT6 behavior This patchset provides support for the SRv6 End.DT4 and End.DT6 (VRF mode) behaviors. The SRv6 End.DT4 behavior is used to implement multi-tenant IPv4 L3 VPNs. It decapsulates the received packets and performs IPv4 routing lookup in the routing table of the tenant. The SRv6 End.DT4 Linux implementation leverages a VRF device in order to force the routing lookup into the associated routing table. The SRv6 End.DT4 behavior is defined in the SRv6 Network Programming [1]. The Linux kernel already offers an implementation of the SRv6 End.DT6 behavior which allows us to set up IPv6 L3 VPNs over SRv6 networks. This new implementation of DT6 is based on the same VRF infrastructure already exploited for implementing the SRv6 End.DT4 behavior. The aim of the new SRv6 End.DT6 in VRF mode consists in simplifying the construction of IPv6 L3 VPN services in the multi-tenant environment. Currently, the two SRv6 End.DT6 implementations (legacy and VRF mode) coexist seamlessly and can be chosen according to the context and the user preferences. - Patch 1 is needed to solve a pre-existing issue with tunneled packets when a sniffer is attached; - Patch 2 improves the management of the seg6local attributes used by the SRv6 behaviors; - Patch 3 adds support for optional attributes in SRv6 behaviors; - Patch 4 introduces two callbacks used for customizing the creation/destruction of a SRv6 behavior; - Patch 5 is the core patch that adds support for the SRv6 End.DT4 behavior; - Patch 6 introduces the VRF support for SRv6 End.DT6 behavior; - Patch 7 adds the selftest for SRv6 End.DT4 behavior; - Patch 8 adds the selftest for SRv6 End.DT6 (VRF mode) behavior. Regarding iproute2, the support for the new "vrftable" attribute, required by both SRv6 End.DT4 and End.DT6 (VRF mode) behaviors, is provided in a different patchset that will follow shortly. I would like to thank David Ahern for his support during the development of this patchset.
