      selftests/tc-testing: localize test resources · 98cfbe42
      Pedro Tammela authored 
      As of today, the current tdc architecture creates one netns and uses it
to run all tests. This assumption was embedded into the nsPlugin which
carried over as how the tests were written.

The tdc tests are by definition self contained and can,
theoretically, run in parallel. Even though in the kernel they will
serialize over the rtnl lock, we should expect a significant speedup of the
total wall time for the entire test suite, which is hitting close to
1100 tests at this point.

A first step to achieve this goal is to remove sharing of global resources like
veth/dummy interfaces and the netns. In this patch we 'localize' these
resources on a per test basis. Each test gets it's own netns, VETH/dummy interfaces.
The resources are spawned in the pre_suite phase, where tdc will prepare
all netns and interfaces for all tests. This is done in order to avoid
concurrency issues with netns / interfaces spawning and commands using
them. As tdc progresses, the resources are deleted after each test finishes
executing.

Tests that don't use the nsPlugin still run under the root namespace,
but are now required to manage any external resources like interfaces.
These cannot be parallelized as their definition doesn't allow it.
On the other hand, when using the nsPlugin, tests don't need to create
dummy/veth interfaces as these are handled already.

      net: sfp: add quirk for Fiberstone GPON-ONU-34-20BI · d387e34f
      Christian Marangi authored 
      Fiberstone GPON-ONU-34-20B can operate at 2500base-X, but report 1.2GBd
NRZ in their EEPROM.

The module also require the ignore tx fault fixup similar to Huawei MA5671A
as it gets disabled on error messages with serial redirection enabled.

====================
mlxsw: Improve blocks selection for IPv6 multicast forwarding

Amit Cohen writes:

The driver configures two ACL regions during initialization, these regions
are used for IPv4 and IPv6 multicast forwarding. Entries residing in these
two regions match on the {SIP, DIP, VRID} key elements.

Currently for IPv6 region, 9 key blocks are used. This can be improved by
reducing the amount key blocks needed for the IPv6 region to 8. It is
possible to use key blocks that mix subsets of the VRID element with
subsets of the DIP element.

To make this happen, we have to take in account the algorithm that chooses
which key blocks will be used. It is lazy and not the optimal one as it is
a complex task. It searches the block that contains the most elements that
are required, chooses it, removes the elements that appear in the chosen
block and starts again searching the block that contains the most elements.

To optimize the nubmber of the blocks for IPv6 multicast forwarding, handle
the following:

1. Add support for key blocks that mix subsets of the VRID element with
subsets of the DIP element.

2. Prevent the algorithm from chosing another blocks for VRID.
Currently, we have the block 'ipv4_4' which contains 2 sub-elements of
VRID. With the existing algorithm, this block might be chosen, then 8
blocks must be chosen for SIP and DIP and we will get 9 blocks to match on
{SIP, DIP, VRID}. Therefore, replace this block with a new block 'ipv4_5'
that contains 1 element for VRID, this will not be chosen for IPv6 as VRID
element will be broken to several sub-elements. In this way we can get 8
blocks for IPv6 multicast forwarding.

This improvement was tested and indeed 8 blocks are used instead of 9.

v2:
- Resending without changes.

      mlxsw: Edit IPv6 key blocks to use one less block for multicast forwarding · 92953e7a
      Amit Cohen authored 
      Two ACL regions that are configured by the driver during initialization are
the ones used for IPv4 and IPv6 multicast forwarding. Entries residing
in these two regions match on the {SIP, DIP, VRID} key elements.

Currently for IPv6 region, 9 key blocks are used:
* 4 for SIP - 'ipv4_1', 'ipv6_{3,4,5}'
* 4 for DIP - 'ipv4_0', 'ipv6_{0,1,2/2b}'
* 1 for VRID - 'ipv4_4b'

This can be improved by reducing the amount key blocks needed for
the IPv6 region to 8. It is possible to use key blocks that mix subsets of
the VRID element with subsets of the DIP element.
The following key blocks can be used:
* 4 for SIP - 'ipv4_1', 'ipv6_{3,4,5}'
* 1 for subset of DIP - 'ipv4_0'
* 3 for the rest of DIP and subsets of VRID - 'ipv6_{0,1,2/2b}'

To make this happen, add VRID sub-elements as part of existing keys -
'ipv6_{0,1,2/2b}'. Note that one of the sub-elements is called
VRID_ROUTER_MSB and does not contain bit numbers like the rest, as for
Spectrum < 4 this element represents bits 8-10 and for Spectrum-4 it
represents bits 8-11.

Breaking VRID into 3 sub-elements makes the driver use one less block in
IPv6 region for multicast forwarding. The sub-elements can be filled in
blocks that are used for destination IP.

The algorithm in the driver that chooses which key blocks will be used is
lazy and not the optimal one. It searches the block that contains the most
elements that are required, chooses it, removes the elements that appear
in the chosen block and starts again searching the block that contains the
most elements.

When key block 'ipv4_4' is defined, the algorithm might choose it, as it
contains 2 sub-elements of VRID, then 8 blocks must be chosen for SIP and
DIP and we get 9 blocks to match on {SIP, DIP, VRID}. That is why we had to
remove key block 'ipv4_4' in a previous patch and use key block that
contains one field for VRID.

This improvement was tested and indeed 8 blocks are used instead of 9.

      mlxsw: spectrum_acl_flex_keys: Add 'ipv4_5b' flex key · c6caabdf
      Amit Cohen authored 
      The previous patch replaced the key block 'ipv4_4' with 'ipv4_5'. The
corresponding block for Spectrum-4 is 'ipv4_4b'. To be consistent, replace
key block 'ipv4_4b' with 'ipv4_5b'.

      mlxsw: Add 'ipv4_5' flex key · c2f3e10a
      Amit Cohen authored 
      Currently virtual router ID element is broken to two sub-elements -
'VIRT_ROUTER_LSB' and 'VIRT_ROUTER_MSB'. It was broken as this field is
broken in 'ipv4_4' flex key which is used for IPv4 in Spectrum < 4.
For Spectrum-4, we use 'ipv4_4b' flex key which contains one field for
virtual router, this key is not supported in older ASICs.

Add 'ipv4_5' flex key which is supported in all ASICs and contains one
field for virtual router. Then there is no reason to use 'VIRT_ROUTER_LSB'
and 'VIRT_ROUTER_MSB', remove them and add one element 'VIRT_ROUTER' for
this field.

The motivation is to get rid of 'ipv4_4' flex key, as it might be chosen
for IPv6 multicast forwarding region. This will not allow the improvement
in a following patch. See more details in the cover letter and in a
following patch.

      hamradio: baycom: remove useless link in Kconfig · 84c19e65
      Peter Lafreniere authored 
      The Kconfig help text for baycom drivers suggests that more information
on the hardware can be found at <https://www.baycom.de>. The website now
includes no information on their ham radio products other than a mention
that they were once produced by the company, saying:
"The amateur radio equipment is now no longer part and business of BayCom GmbH"

As there is no information relavent to the baycom driver on the site,
remove the link.
