The SFP MSA defines two option bits in byte 65 to indicate how the Rx_LOS signal on SFP pin 8 behaves: bit 2 - Loss of Signal implemented, signal inverted from standard definition in SFP MSA (often called "Signal Detect"). bit 1 - Loss of Signal implemented, signal as defined in SFP MSA (often called "Rx_LOS"). Clearly, setting both bits results in a meaningless situation: it would mean that LOS is implemented in both the normal sense (1 = signal loss) and inverted sense (0 = signal loss). Unfortunately, there are modules out there which set both bits, which will be initially interpret as "inverted" sense, and then, if the LOS signal changes state, we will toggle between LINK_UP and WAIT_LOS states. Change our LOS handling to give well defined behaviour: only interpret these bits as meaningful if exactly one is set, otherwise treat it as if LOS is not implemented.

The code that sets the DMA mask to 64 bits is bogus, it is taken from the enetc driver together with the rest of the PCI probing boilerplate. Since this patch is touching the error path to delete err_dma, let's also change the err_alloc_felix label which was incorrect. The kzalloc failure does not need a kfree, but it doesn't hurt either, since kfree works with NULL pointers. Signed-off-by:

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== Get rid of the switchdev transactional model Changes in v4: - Fixed build error in dsa_loop and build warning in hellcreek driver. - Scheduling the mlxsw SPAN work item regardless of the VLAN add return code, as per Ido's and Petr's request. Changes in v3: - Resolved a build warning in mv88e6xxx and tested that it actually works properly, which resulted in an extra patch (02/11). - Addressed Ido's minor feedback in commit 10/11 relating to a comment. Changes in v2: - Got rid of the vid_begin -> vid_end range too from the switchdev API. - Actually propagating errors from DSA MDB and VLAN notifiers. This series comes after the late realization that the prepare/commit separation imposed by switchdev does not help literally anybody: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/patch/20201212203901.351331-1-vladimir.oltean@nxp.com/ We should kill it before it inflicts even more damage to the error handling logic in drivers. Also remove the unused VLAN ranges feature from the switchdev VLAN objects, which simplifies all drivers by quite a bit. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210109000156.1246735-1-olteanv@gmail.comSigned-off-by:

As of commit 457e20d6 ("mlxsw: spectrum_switchdev: Avoid returning errors in commit phase"), the mlxsw driver performs the VLAN object offloading during the prepare phase. So conversion just seems to be a matter of removing the code that was running in the commit phase. Ido Schimmel explains that the reason why mlxsw_sp_span_respin is called unconditionally is because the bridge driver will ignore -EOPNOTSUPP and actually add the VLAN on the bridge device - see commit 9c86ce2c ("net: bridge: Notify about bridge VLANs") and commit ea472175 ("mlxsw: spectrum_switchdev: Ignore bridge VLAN events"). Since the VLAN was successfully added on the bridge device, mlxsw_sp_span_respin_work() should be able to resolve the egress port for a packet that is mirrored to a gre tap and passes through the bridge device. Therefore keep the logic as it is. Signed-off-by:

It should be the driver's business to logically separate its VLAN offloading into a preparation and a commit phase, and some drivers don't need / can't do this. So remove the transactional shim from DSA and let drivers propagate errors directly from the .port_vlan_add callback. It would appear that the code has worse error handling now than it had before. DSA is the only in-kernel user of switchdev that offloads one switchdev object to more than one port: for every VLAN object offloaded to a user port, that VLAN is also offloaded to the CPU port. So the "prepare for user port -> check for errors -> prepare for CPU port -> check for errors -> commit for user port -> commit for CPU port" sequence appears to make more sense than the one we are using now: "offload to user port -> check for errors -> offload to CPU port -> check for errors", but it is really a compromise. In the new way, we can catch errors from the commit phase that we previously had to ignore. But we have our hands tied and cannot do any rollback now: if we add a VLAN on the CPU port and it fails, we can't do the rollback by simply deleting it from the user port, because the switchdev API is not so nice with us: it could have simply been there already, even with the same flags. So we don't even attempt to rollback anything on addition error, just leave whatever VLANs managed to get offloaded right where they are. This should not be a problem at all in practice.

For many drivers, the .port_mdb_prepare callback was not a good opportunity to avoid any error condition, and they would suppress errors found during the actual commit phase. Where a logical separation between the prepare and the commit phase existed, the function that used to implement the .port_mdb_prepare callback still exists, but now it is called directly from .port_mdb_add, which was modified to return an int code.

Remove the shim introduced in DSA for offloading the bridge ageing time from switchdev, by first checking whether the ageing time is within the range limits requested by the driver. Signed-off-by:

Vladimir Oltean authored
Since the introduction of the switchdev API, port attributes were transmitted to drivers for offloading using a two-step transactional model, with a prepare phase that was supposed to catch all errors, and a commit phase that was supposed to never fail. Some classes of failures can never be avoided, like hardware access, or memory allocation. In the latter case, merely attempting to move the memory allocation to the preparation phase makes it impossible to avoid memory leaks, since commit 91cf8ece ("switchdev: Remove unused transaction item queue") which has removed the unused mechanism of passing on the allocated memory between one phase and another. It is time we admit that separating the preparation from the commit phase is something that is best left for the driver to decide, and not something that should be baked into the API, especially since there are no switchdev callers that depend on this. This patch removes the struct switchdev_trans member from switchdev port attribute notifier structures, and converts drivers to not look at this member. In part, this patch contains a revert of my previous commit 2e554a7a ("net: dsa: propagate switchdev vlan_filtering prepare phase to drivers"). For the most part, the conversion was trivial except for: - Rocker's world implementation based on Broadcom OF-DPA had an odd implementation of ofdpa_port_attr_bridge_flags_set. The conversion was done mechanically, by pasting the implementation twice, then only keeping the code that would get executed during prepare phase on top, then only keeping the code that gets executed during the commit phase on bottom, then simplifying the resulting code until this was obtained. - DSA's offloading of STP state, bridge flags, VLAN filtering and multicast router could be converted right away. But the ageing time could not, so a shim was introduced and this was left for a further commit. Signed-off-by:

Where driver conversion is trivial (like in the case of the Marvell Prestera driver, NXP DPAA2 switch, TI CPSW, and Rocker drivers), it is done in this patch. Where driver conversion needs more attention (DSA, Mellanox Spectrum), the conversion is left for subsequent patches and here we only fake the prepare/commit phases at a lower level, just not in the switchdev notifier itself. Where the code has a natural structure that is best left alone as a preparation and a commit phase (as in the case of the Ocelot switch), that structure is left in place, just made to not depend upon the switchdev transactional model.

mv88e6xxx apparently has a problem offloading VID 0, which the 8021q module tries to install as part of commit ad1afb00 ("vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)"). That mv88e6xxx restriction seems to have been introduced by the "VTU GetNext VID-1 trick to retrieve a single entry" - see commit 2fb5ef09 ("net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: extract single VLAN retrieval"). There is one more problem. The mv88e6xxx CPU port and DSA links do not report properly in the prepare phase what are the VLANs that they can offload. They'll say they can offload everything: mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_prepare -> mv88e6xxx_port_check_hw_vlan: /* DSA and CPU ports have to be members of multiple vlans */ if (dsa_is_dsa_port(ds, port) || dsa_is_cpu_port(ds, port)) return 0; Except that if you actually try to commit to it, they'll error out and print this message: [ 32.802438] mv88e6085 d0032004.mdio-mii:12: p9: failed to add VLAN 0t which comes from: mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_add -> mv88e6xxx_port_vlan_join: if (!vid) return -EOPNOTSUPP; What prevents this condition from triggering in real life? The fact that when a DSA_NOTIFIER_VLAN_ADD is emitted, it never targets a DSA link directly. Instead, the notifier will always target either a user port or a CPU port. DSA links just happen to get dragged in by: static bool dsa_switch_vlan_match(struct dsa_switch *ds, int port, struct dsa_notifier_vlan_info *info) { ... if (dsa_is_dsa_port(ds, port)) return true; ... } So for every DSA VLAN notifier, during the prepare phase, it will just so happen that there will be somebody to say "no, don't do that". This will become a problem when the switchdev prepare/commit transactional model goes away. Every port needs to think on its own. DSA links can no longer bluff and rely on the fact that the prepare phase will not go through to the end, because there will be no prepare phase any longer. Fix this issue before it becomes a problem, by having the "vid == 0" check earlier than the check whether we are a CPU port / DSA link or not. Also, the "vid == 0" check becomes unnecessary in the .port_vlan_add callback, so we can remove it. Signed-off-by:

The call path of a switchdev VLAN addition to the bridge looks something like this today: nbp_vlan_init | __br_vlan_set_default_pvid | | | | | br_afspec | | | | | | | v | | | br_process_vlan_info | | | | | | | v | | | br_vlan_info | | | / \ / | | / \ / | | / \ / | | / \ / v v v v v nbp_vlan_add br_vlan_add ------+ | ^ ^ | | | / | | | | / / / | \ br_vlan_get_master/ / v \ ^ / / br_vlan_add_existing \ | / / | \ | / / / \ | / / / \ | / / / \ | / / / v | | v / __vlan_add / / | / / | / v | / __vlan_vid_add | / \ | / v v v br_switchdev_port_vlan_add The ranges UAPI was introduced to the bridge in commit bdced7ef ("bridge: support for multiple vlans and vlan ranges in setlink and dellink requests") (Jan 10 2015). But the VLAN ranges (parsed in br_afspec) have always been passed one by one, through struct bridge_vlan_info tmp_vinfo, to br_vlan_info. So the range never went too far in depth. Then Scott Feldman introduced the switchdev_port_bridge_setlink function in commit 47f8328b ("switchdev: add new switchdev bridge setlink"). That marked the introduction of the SWITCHDEV_OBJ_PORT_VLAN, which made full use of the range. But switchdev_port_bridge_setlink was called like this: br_setlink -> br_afspec -> switchdev_port_bridge_setlink Basically, the switchdev and the bridge code were not tightly integrated. Then commit 41c498b9 ("bridge: restore br_setlink back to original") came, and switchdev drivers were required to implement .ndo_bridge_setlink = switchdev_port_bridge_setlink for a while. In the meantime, commits such as 0944d6b5 ("bridge: try switchdev op first in __vlan_vid_add/del") finally made switchdev penetrate the br_vlan_info() barrier and start to develop the call path we have today. But remember, br_vlan_info() still receives VLANs one by one. Then Arkadi Sharshevsky refactored the switchdev API in 2017 in commit 29ab586c ("net: switchdev: Remove bridge bypass support from switchdev") so that drivers would not implement .ndo_bridge_setlink any longer. The switchdev_port_bridge_setlink also got deleted. This refactoring removed the parallel bridge_setlink implementation from switchdev, and left the only switchdev VLAN objects to be the ones offloaded from __vlan_vid_add (basically RX filtering) and __vlan_add (the latter coming from commit 9c86ce2c ("net: bridge: Notify about bridge VLANs")). That is to say, today the switchdev VLAN object ranges are not used in the kernel. Refactoring the above call path is a bit complicated, when the bridge VLAN call path is already a bit complicated. Let's go off and finish the job of commit 29ab586c by deleting the bogus iteration through the VLAN ranges from the drivers. Some aspects of this feature never made too much sense in the first place. For example, what is a range of VLANs all having the BRIDGE_VLAN_INFO_PVID flag supposed to mean, when a port can obviously have a single pvid? This particular configuration _is_ denied as of commit 6623c60d ("bridge: vlan: enforce no pvid flag in vlan ranges"), but from an API perspective, the driver still has to play pretend, and only offload the vlan->vid_end as pvid. And the addition of a switchdev VLAN object can modify the flags of another, completely unrelated, switchdev VLAN object! (a VLAN that is PVID will invalidate the PVID flag from whatever other VLAN had previously been offloaded with switchdev and had that flag. Yet switchdev never notifies about that change, drivers are supposed to guess). Nonetheless, having a VLAN range in the API makes error handling look scarier than it really is - unwinding on errors and all of that. When in reality, no one really calls this API with more than one VLAN. It is all unnecessary complexity. And despite appearing pretentious (two-phase transactional model and all), the switchdev API is really sloppy because the VLAN addition and removal operations are not paired with one another (you can add a VLAN 100 times and delete it just once). The bridge notifies through switchdev of a VLAN addition not only when the flags of an existing VLAN change, but also when nothing changes. There are switchdev drivers out there who don't like adding a VLAN that has already been added, and those checks don't really belong at driver level. But the fact that the API contains ranges is yet another factor that prevents this from being addressed in the future. Of the existing switchdev pieces of hardware, it appears that only Mellanox Spectrum supports offloading more than one VLAN at a time, through mlxsw_sp_port_vlan_set. I have kept that code internal to the driver, because there is some more bookkeeping that makes use of it, but I deleted it from the switchdev API. But since the switchdev support for ranges has already been de facto deleted by a Mellanox employee and nobody noticed for 4 years, I'm going to assume it's not a biggie. Signed-off-by:

Data should only be sent on backup subflows if no regular subflows are available.

This patch added the outgoing MP_PRIO logic: In mptcp_pm_nl_mp_prio_send_ack, find the related subflow and subsocket according to the input parameter addr.

Finally, send out a pure ACK on the related subsocket. In mptcp_established_options_mp_prio, check whether the subflow's send_mp_prio is set. If it is, this is the packet for sending MP_PRIO. So save subflow->request_bkup value to mptcp_out_options's backup, and change the option type to OPTION_MPTCP_PRIO. In mptcp_write_options, clear the send_mp_prio flag and send out the MP_PRIO suboption with mptcp_out_options's backup value. Signed-off-by:

If the network interface object is connected to a MAC of TYPE_FIXED, the link status management is handled exclusively by the firmware. This does not mean that the driver cannot access the MAC counters and export them in ethtool. For this to happen, we open the attached dpmac device and keep a pointer to it in priv->mac. Because of this, all the checks in the driver of the following form 'if (priv->mac)' have to be updated to actually check the dpmac attribute and not rely on the presence of a non-NULL value.
