The 6352 family of switches and compatibles provide a 8-bit address and 16-bit data access to an optional EEPROM. Newer chip such as the 6390 family slightly changed the access to 16-bit address and 8-bit data. This commit cleans up the EEPROM access code for 16-bit access and makes it easy to eventually introduce future support for 8-bit access. Here's a list of notable changes brought by this patch: - provide Global2 unlocked helpers for EEPROM commands - remove eeprom_mutex, only reg_lock is necessary for driver functions - eeprom_len is 0 for chip without EEPROM, so return it directly - the Running bit must be 0 before r/w, so wait for Busy *and* Running - remove now unused mv88e6xxx_wait and mv88e6xxx_reg_write - other than that, the logic (in _{get,set}_eeprom16) didn't change Chips with an 8-bit EEPROM access will require to implement the 8-suffixed variant of G2 helpers and the related flag: #define MV88E6XXX_FLAGS_EEPROM8 \ (MV88E6XXX_FLAG_G2_EEPROM_CMD | \ MV88E6XXX_FLAG_G2_EEPROM_ADDR) Signed-off-by: -

The initial MAC address is retrieved from hardware if it's not provided by device-tree. The reserved MAC address from hardware will be used if non-reserved MAC address is invalid. It will cause mismatched MAC address seen by hardware and software. This disallows using the reserved hardware MAC address to avoid the mismatched MAC address seen by hardware and software.

Brenden Blanco says: ==================== Add driver bpf hook for early packet drop and forwarding This patch set introduces new infrastructure for programmatically processing packets in the earliest stages of rx, as part of an effort others are calling eXpress Data Path (XDP) [1]. Start this effort by introducing a new bpf program type for early packet filtering, before even an skb has been allocated. Extend on this with the ability to modify packet data and send back out on the same port. Patch 1 adds an API for bulk bpf prog refcnt incrememnt. Patch 2 introduces the new prog type and helpers for validating the bpf program. A new userspace struct is defined containing only data and data_end as fields, with others to follow in the future. In patch 3, create a new ndo to pass the fd to supported drivers. In patch 4, expose a new rtnl option to userspace. In patch 5, enable support in mlx4 driver. In patch 6, create a sample drop and count program. With single core, achieved ~20 Mpps drop rate on a 40G ConnectX3-Pro. This includes packet data access, bpf array lookup, and increment. In patch 7, add a page recycle facility to mlx4 rx, enabled when xdp is active. In patch 8, add the XDP_TX type to bpf.h In patch 9, add helper in tx patch for writing tx_desc In patch 10, add support in mlx4 for packet data write and forwarding In patch 11, turn on packet write support in the bpf verifier In patch 12, add a sample program for packet write and forwarding. With single core, achieved ~10 Mpps rewrite and forwarding. [1] https://github.com/iovisor/bpf-docs/blob/master/Express_Data_Path.pdf v10: 1/12: Add bulk refcnt api. 5/12: Move prog from priv to ring. This attribute is still only set globally, but the path to finer granularity should be clear. No lock is taken, so some rings may operate on older programs for a time (one napi loop). Looked into options such as napi_synchronize, but they were deemed too slow (calls to msleep). Rename prog to xdp_prog. Add xdp_ring_num to help with accounting, used more heavily in later patches. 7/12: Adjust to use per-ring xdp prog. Use priv->xdp_ring_num where before priv->prog was used to determine buffer allocations. 9/12: Add cpu_to_be16 to vlan_tag in mxl4_en_xmit(). Remove unused variable from mlx4_en_xmit and unused params from build_inline_wqe. v9: 4/11: Add missing newline in en_err message. 6/11: Move page_cache cleanup from mlx4_en_destroy_rx_ring to mlx4_en_deactivate_rx_ring. Move mlx4_en_moderation_update back to static. Remove calls to mlx4_en_alloc/free_resources in mlx4_xdp_set. Adopt instead the approach of mlx4_en_change_mtu to use a watchdog. 9/11: Use a per-ring function pointer in tx to separate out the code for regular and recycle paths of tx completion handling. Add a helper function to init the recycle ring and callback, called just after activating tx. Remove extra tx ring resource requirement, and instead steal from the upper rings. This helps to avoid needing mlx4_en_alloc_resources. Add some hopefully meaningful error messages for the various error cases. Reverted some of the hard-to-follow logic that was accounting for the extra tx rings. v8: 1/11: Reduce WARN_ONCE to single line. Also, change act param of that function to u32 to match return type of bpf_prog_run_xdp. 2/11: Clarify locking semantics in ndo comment. 4/11: Add en_err warning in mlx4_xdp_set on num_frags/mtu violation. v7: Addressing two of the major discussion points: return codes and ndo. The rest will be taken as todo items for separate patches. Add an XDP_ABORTED type, which explicitly falls through to DROP. The same result must be taken for the default case as well, as it is now well-defined API behavior. Merge ndo_xdp_* into a single ndo. The style is similar to ndo_setup_tc, but with less unidirectional naming convention. The IFLA parameter names are unchanged. TODOs: Add ethtool per-ring stats for aborted, default cases, maybe even drop and tx as well. Avoid duplicate dma sync operation in XDP_PASS case as mentioned by Saeed. 1/12: Add XDP_ABORTED enum, reword API comment, and update commit message. 2/12: Rewrite ndo_xdp_*() into single ndo_xdp() with type/union style calling convention. 3/12: Switch to ndo_xdp callback. 4/12: Add XDP_ABORTED case as a fall-through to XDP_DROP. Implement ndo_xdp. 12/12: Dropped, this will need some more work. v6: 2/12: drop unnecessary netif_device_present check 4/12, 6/12, 9/12: Reorder default case statement above drop case to remove some copy/paste. v5: 0/12: Rebase and remove previous 1/13 patch 1/12: Fix nits from Daniel. Left the (void *) cast as-is, to be fixed in future. Add bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action() helper, to be used when out of bounds action is returned by the program. Add a comment to bpf.h denoting the undefined nature of out of bounds returns. 2/12: Switch to using bpf_prog_get_type(). Rename ndo_xdp_get() to ndo_xdp_attached(). 3/12: Add IFLA_XDP as a nested type, and add the associated nla_policy for the new subtypes IFLA_XDP_FD and IFLA_XDP_ATTACHED. 4/12: Fixup the use of READ_ONCE in the ndos. Add a user of bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action helper. 5/12: Adjust to using the nested netlink options. 6/12: kbuild was complaining about overflow of u16 on tile architecture...bump frag_stride to u32. The page_offset member that is computed from this was already u32. v4: 2/12: Add inline helper for calling xdp bpf prog under rcu 3/12: Add detail to ndo comments 5/12: Remove mlx4_call_xdp and use inline helper instead. 6/12: Fix checkpatch complaints 9/12: Introduce new patch 9/12 with common helper for tx_desc write Refactor to use common tx_desc write helper 11/12: Fix checkpatch complaints v3: Rewrite from v2 trying to incorporate feedback from multiple sources. Specifically, add ability to forward packets out the same port and allow packet modification. For packet forwarding, the driver reserves a dedicated set of tx rings for exclusive use by xdp. Upon completion, the pages on this ring are recycled directly back to a small per-rx-ring page cache without being dma unmapped. Use of the percpu skb is dropped in favor of a lightweight struct xdp_buff. The direct packet access feature is leveraged to remove dependence on the skb. The mlx4 driver implementation allocates a page-per-packet and maps it in PCI_DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL mode when the bpf program is activated. Naming is converted to use "xdp" instead of "phys_dev". v2: 1/5: Drop xdp from types, instead consistently use bpf_phys_dev_ Introduce enum for return values from phys_dev hook 2/5: Move prog->type check to just before invoking ndo Change ndo to take a bpf_prog * instead of fd Add ndo_bpf_get rather than keeping a bool in the netdev struct 3/5: Use ndo_bpf_get to fetch bool 4/5: Enforce that only 1 frag is ever given to bpf prog by disallowing mtu to increase beyond FRAG_SZ0 when bpf prog is running, or conversely to set a bpf prog when priv->num_frags > 1 Rename pseudo_skb to bpf_phys_dev_md Implement ndo_bpf_get Add dma sync just before invoking prog Check for explicit bpf return code rather than nonzero Remove increment of rx_dropped 5/5: Use explicit bpf return code in example Update commit log with higher pps numbers ==================== Signed-off-by:

Add a sample that rewrites and forwards packets out on the same interface. Observed single core forwarding performance of ~10Mpps. Since the mlx4 driver under test recycles every single packet page, the perf output shows almost exclusively just the ring management and bpf program work. Slowdowns are likely occurring due to cache misses. Signed-off-by:

For forwarding to be effective, XDP programs should be allowed to rewrite packet data. This requires that the drivers supporting XDP must all map the packet memory as TODEVICE or BIDIRECTIONAL before invoking the program. Signed-off-by:

A user will now be able to loop packets back out of the same port using a bpf program attached to xdp hook. Updates to the packet contents from the bpf program is also supported. For the packet write feature to work, the rx buffers are now mapped as bidirectional when the page is allocated. This occurs only when the xdp hook is active. When the program returns a TX action, enqueue the packet directly to a dedicated tx ring, so as to avoid completely any locking. This requires the tx ring to be allocated 1:1 for each rx ring, as well as the tx completion running in the same softirq. Upon tx completion, this dedicated tx ring recycles pages without unmapping directly back to the original rx ring. In steady state tx/drop workload, effectively 0 page allocs/frees will occur. In order to separate out the paths between free and recycle, a free_tx_desc func pointer is introduced that is optionally updated whenever recycle_ring is activated. By default the original free function is always initialized. Signed-off-by:

The mlx4 driver by default allocates order-3 pages for the ring to consume in multiple fragments. When the device has an xdp program, this behavior will prevent tx actions since the page must be re-mapped in TODEVICE mode, which cannot be done if the page is still shared. Start by making the allocator configurable based on whether xdp is running, such that order-0 pages are always used and never shared. Since this will stress the page allocator, add a simple page cache to each rx ring. Pages in the cache are left dma-mapped, and in drop-only stress tests the page allocator is eliminated from the perf report. Note that setting an xdp program will now require the rings to be reconfigured.

Add support for the BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP hook in mlx4 driver. In tc/socket bpf programs, helpers linearize skb fragments as needed when the program touches the packet data. However, in the pursuit of speed, XDP programs will not be allowed to use these slower functions, especially if it involves allocating an skb. Therefore, disallow MTU settings that would produce a multi-fragment packet that XDP programs would fail to access. Future enhancements could be done to increase the allowable MTU. The xdp program is present as a per-ring data structure, but as of yet it is not possible to set at that granularity through any ndo. Signed-off-by:

Add a new bpf prog type that is intended to run in early stages of the packet rx path. Only minimal packet metadata will be available, hence a new context type, struct xdp_md, is exposed to userspace. So far only expose the packet start and end pointers, and only in read mode. An XDP program must return one of the well known enum values, all other return codes are reserved for future use. Unfortunately, this restriction is hard to enforce at verification time, so take the approach of warning at runtime when such programs are encountered. Out of bounds return codes should alias to XDP_ABORTED. Signed-off-by:

Gavin Shan says: ==================== NCSI Support This series rebases on David's linux-net git repo ("master" branch). It's to support NCSI stack on drivers/net/ethernet/faraday/ftgmac100.c. The implementation is based on NCSI spec (version: 1.1.0): https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0222_1.1.0.pdf As the following figure shows and defined in NCSI spec: * The NC-SI (aka NCSI) is defined as the interface between a (Base) Management Controller (BMC) and one or multiple Network Interface Controlers (NIC) on host side. The interface is responsible for providing external network connectivity for BMC. * Each BMC can connect to multiple packages, up to 8. Each package can have multiple channels, up to 32. Every package and channel are identified by 3-bits and 5-bits in NCSI packet. * NCSI packet, encapsulated in ethernet frame, has 0x88F8 in the protocol field. The destination MAC address should be 0xFF's while the source MAC address can be arbitrary one. * NCSI packets are classified to command, response, AEN (Asynchronous Event Notification). Commands are sent from BMC to host (NIC) for configuration and information retrival. Responses, corresponding to commands, are sent from host to BMC for confirmation and requested information. One command should have one and only one response. AEN is sent from host to BMC for notification (e.g. link down on active channel) so that BMC can take appropriate action. +------------------+ +----------------------------------------------+ | | | Host | | BMC | | | | | | +-------------------+ +-------------------+ | | +---------+ | | | Package-A | | Package-B | | | | | | | +---------+---------+ +-------------------+ | | |ftgmac100| | | | Channel | Channel | | Channel | Channel | | +----+----+----+---+ +-+---------+---------+--+---------+---------+-+ | | | | | | +-----------------------------+----------------------+ The series of patches is highlighted as: The design for the patchset is highlighted as below: * The network driver uses 3 interfaces exported from NCSI stack: ncsi_register_dev() - Register (create) a associated NCSI device. ncsi_start_dev() - Bring up the NCSI device. ncsi_unregister_dev() - Destroy the registered NCSI device. * There are several data structures introduced for different objects: struct ncsi_dev - NCSI device seen by network device driver. struct ncsi_dev_priv - NCSI device seen by NCSI stack. struct ncsi_package - NCSI package which can have multiple channels. struct ncsi_channel - NCSI channel. * The NCSI stack is driven by workqueue and state machine internally. * The all available NCSI packages and channels are enumerated (probed) on the first call to ncsi_start_dev(). The NCSI topology won't change until the NCSI device is destroyed. * All available channels will be brought up When the hardware arbitration is enabled. Otherwise, only one channel is selected as active one. The NCSI internal is driven by state machine with help of a workqueue. In the meanwhile, there are 3 states for each channel which can be put into a queue requesting for configuration or suspending. Channels in the queue with inactive state set will be configured (bringup) while channels in the queue with active state will be suspended (teardown). The request configuration or suspending is being applied on the channel if it's in invisible state. * Failover, another inactive channel is selected as active, can happen when the hardware arbitration is disabled. The failover can be caused by timeout on link monitor and AEN. * NCSI stack should be configurable through netlink or another mechanism, it's not implemented in this patchset. It's something TBD. * The first NIC driver that is aware of NCSI: drivers/net/ethernet/faraday/ftgmac100.c Changelog ========= v2 -> v3: * Include (one line) change in include/uapi/linux/if_ether.h to fix build error. v1 -> v2: * Support NCSI spec v1.1.0 (3 more commands and 4 hardware arbitration modes added). * Enable AEN packets according to the supported list. * Introduce NCSI channel states and processing queue in order to support the hardware arbitration. * The hardware arbitration is supported (tested with emulated environment). * Introduce link monitor with GLS (Get Link Status) command/response as part of the error handling defined in NCSI spec. * Support IPv6 address discovery when CONFIG_IPV6 is enabled. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This makes ftgmac100 driver support NCSI mode. The NCSI is enabled on the interface if property "use-nc-si" or "use-ncsi" is found from the device node in device tree. * No PHY device is used when NCSI mode is enabled. * The NCSI device (struct ncsi_dev) is created when probing the device while it's enabled/started when the interface is brought up. * Hardware IP checksum dosn't work when NCSI mode is enabled. It is disabled on enabled NCSI. Signed-off-by: -

The device is assigned with random MAC address. It isn't reasonable. An valid MAC address might have been provided by (uboot) firmware by device-tree or in chip. It's reasonable to use it to maintain consistency. This uses the MAC address from device-tree or that in the chip if it's valid. Otherwise, a random MAC address is given as before. Signed-off-by:

This introduces NCSI AEN packet handlers that result in (A) the currently active channel is reconfigured; (B) Currently active channel is deconfigured and disabled, another channel is chosen as active one and configured. Case (B) won't happen if hardware arbitration has been enabled, the channel that was in active state is suspended simply. Signed-off-by:

This manages NCSI packages and channels: * The available packages and channels are enumerated in the first time of calling ncsi_start_dev(). The channels' capabilities are probed in the meanwhile. The NCSI network topology won't change until the NCSI device is destroyed. * There in a queue in every NCSI device. The element in the queue, channel, is waiting for configuration (bringup) or suspending (teardown). The channel's state (inactive/active) indicates the futher action (configuration or suspending) will be applied on the channel. Another channel's state (invisible) means the requested action is being applied. * The hardware arbitration will be enabled if all available packages and channels support it. All available channels try to provide service when hardware arbitration is enabled. Otherwise, one channel is selected as the active one at once. * When channel is in active state, meaning it's providing service, a timer started to retrieve the channe's link status. If the channel's link status fails to be updated in the determined period, the channel is going to be reconfigured. It's the error handling implementation as defined in NCSI spec. Signed-off-by:

The NCSI response packets are sent to MC (Management Controller) from the remote end. They are responses of NCSI command packets for multiple purposes: completion status of NCSI command packets, return NCSI channel's capability or configuration etc. This defines struct to represent NCSI response packets and introduces function ncsi_rcv_rsp() which will be used to receive NCSI response packets and parse them.

The NCSI command packets are sent from MC (Management Controller) to remote end. They are used for multiple purposes: probe existing NCSI package/channel, retrieve NCSI channel's capability, configure NCSI channel etc. This defines struct to represent NCSI command packets and introduces function ncsi_xmit_cmd(), which will be used to transmit NCSI command packet according to the request. The request is represented by struct ncsi_cmd_arg. Signed-off-by:

NCSI spec (DSP0222) defines several objects: package, channel, mode, filter, version and statistics etc. This introduces the data structs to represent those objects and implement functions to manage them. Also, this introduces CONFIG_NET_NCSI for the newly implemented NCSI stack. * The user (e.g. netdev driver) dereference NCSI device by "struct ncsi_dev", which is embedded to "struct ncsi_dev_priv". The later one is used by NCSI stack internally. * Every NCSI device can have multiple packages simultaneously, up to 8 packages. It's represented by "struct ncsi_package" and identified by 3-bits ID. * Every NCSI package can have multiple channels, up to 32. It's represented by "struct ncsi_channel" and identified by 5-bits ID. * Every NCSI channel has version, statistics, various modes and filters. They are represented by "struct ncsi_channel_version", "struct ncsi_channel_stats", "struct ncsi_channel_mode" and "struct ncsi_channel_filter" separately. * Apart from AEN (Asynchronous Event Notification), the NCSI stack works in terms of command and response. This introduces "struct ncsi_req" to represent a complete NCSI transaction made of NCSI request and response. link: https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0222_1.1.0.pdfSigned-off-by:
