Mat Martineau says: ==================== mptcp: Optimize output options and add MP_FAIL This patch set contains two groups of changes that we've been testing in the MPTCP tree. The first optimizes the code path and data structure for populating MPTCP option headers when transmitting. Patch 1 reorganizes code to reduce the number of conditionals that need to be evaluated in common cases. Patch 2 rearranges struct mptcp_out_options to save 80 bytes (on x86_64). The next five patches add partial support for the MP_FAIL option as defined in RFC 8684. MP_FAIL is an option header used to cleanly handle MPTCP checksum failures. When the MPTCP checksum detects an error in the MPTCP DSS header or the data mapped by that header, the receiver uses a TCP RST with MP_FAIL to close the subflow that experienced the error and provide associated MPTCP sequence number information to the peer. RFC 8684 also describes how a single-subflow connection can discard corrupt data and remain connected under certain conditions using MP_FAIL, but that feature is not implemented here. Patches 3-5 implement MP_FAIL transmit and receive, and integrates with checksum validation. Patches 6 & 7 add MP_FAIL selftests and the MIBs required for those tests. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When a bad checksum is detected, set the send_mp_fail flag to send out the MP_FAIL option. Add a new function mptcp_has_another_subflow() to check whether there's only a single subflow. When multiple subflows are in use, close the affected subflow with a RST that includes an MP_FAIL option and discard the data with the bad checksum. Set the sk_state of the subsocket to TCP_CLOSE, then the flag MPTCP_WORK_CLOSE_SUBFLOW will be set in subflow_sched_work_if_closed, and the subflow will be closed. When a single subfow is in use, temporarily handled by sending MP_FAIL with a RST too. Signed-off-by:

This patch added handling for receiving MP_FAIL suboption. Add a new members mp_fail and fail_seq in struct mptcp_options_received. When MP_FAIL suboption is received, set mp_fail to 1 and save the sequence number to fail_seq. Then invoke mptcp_pm_mp_fail_received to deal with the MP_FAIL suboption. Signed-off-by:

This patch added the MP_FAIL suboption sending support. Add a new flag named send_mp_fail in struct mptcp_subflow_context. If this flag is set, send out MP_FAIL suboption. Add a new member fail_seq in struct mptcp_out_options to save the data sequence number to put into the MP_FAIL suboption. An MP_FAIL option could be included in a RST or on the subflow-level ACK.

Currently we have several protocol constraints on MPTCP options generation (e.g. MPC and MPJ subopt are mutually exclusive) and some additional ones required by our implementation (e.g. almost all ADD_ADDR variant are mutually exclusive with everything else). We can leverage the above to optimize the out option generation: we check DSS/MPC/MPJ presence in a mutually exclusive way, avoiding many unneeded conditionals in the common cases. Additionally extend the existing constraints on ADD_ADDR opt on all subvariants, so that it becomes fully mutually exclusive with the above and we can skip another conditional statement for the common case. This change is also needed by the next patch. Signed-off-by:

Tony Nguyen says: ==================== 1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2021-08-24 Vinicius Costa Gomes says: This adds support for PCIe PTM (Precision Time Measurement) to the igc driver. PCIe PTM allows the NIC and Host clocks to be compared more precisely, improving the clock synchronization accuracy. Patch 1/4 reverts a commit that made pci_enable_ptm() private to the PCI subsystem, reverting makes it possible for it to be called from the drivers. Patch 2/4 adds the pcie_ptm_enabled() helper. Patch 3/4 calls pci_enable_ptm() from the igc driver. Patch 4/4 implements the PCIe PTM support. Exposing it via the .getcrosststamp() API implies that the time measurements are made synchronously with the ioctl(). The hardware was implemented so the most convenient way to retrieve that information would be asynchronously. So, to follow the expectations of the ioctl() we have to use less convenient ways, triggering an PCIe PTM dialog every time a ioctl() is received. Some questions are raised (also pointed out in the commit message): 1. Using convert_art_ns_to_tsc() is too x86 specific, there should be a common way to create a 'system_counterval_t' from a timestamp. 2. convert_art_ns_to_tsc() says that it should only be used when X86_FEATURE_TSC_KNOWN_FREQ is true, but during tests it works even when it returns false. Should that check be done? ==================== Signed-off-by: -

John Efstathiades says: ==================== LAN7800 driver improvements This patch set introduces a number of improvements and fixes for problems found during testing of a modification to add a NAPI-style approach to packet handling to improve performance. NOTE: the NAPI changes are not part of this patch set and the issues fixed by this patch set are not coupled to the NAPI changes. Patch 1 fixes white space and style issues Patch 2 removes an unused timer Patch 3 introduces macros to set the internal packet FIFO flow control levels, which makes it easier to update the levels in future. Patch 4 removes an unused queue Patch 5 (updated for v2) introduces function return value checks and error propagation to various parts of the driver where a return code was captured but then ignored. This patch is completely different to patch 5 in version 1 of this patch set. The changes in the v1 patch 5 are being set aside for the time being. Patch 6 updates the LAN7800 MAC reset code to ensure there is no PHY register access in progress when the MAC is reset. This change prevents a kernel exception that can otherwise occur. Patch 7 fixes problems with system suspend and resume handling while the device is transmitting and receiving data. Patch 8 fixes problems with auto-suspend and resume handling and depends on changes introduced by patch 7. Patch 9 fixes problems with device disconnect handling that can result in kernel exceptions and/or hang. Patch 10 limits the rate at which driver warning messages are emitted. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

If there is a device disconnect at roughly the same time as a deferred PHY link reset there is a race condition that can result in a kernel lock up due to a null pointer dereference in the driver's deferred work handling routine lan78xx_delayedwork(). The following changes fix this problem. Add new status flag EVENT_DEV_DISCONNECT to indicate when the device has been removed and use it to prevent operations, such as register access, that will fail once the device is removed. Stop processing of deferred work items when the driver's USB disconnect handler is invoked. Disconnect the PHY only after the network device has been unregistered and all delayed work has been cancelled. Signed-off-by:

If the interface is given an IP address while the device is suspended (as a result of an auto-suspend event) there is a race between lan78xx_resume() and lan78xx_open() that can result in an exception or failure to handle incoming packets. The following changes fix this problem. Introduce a mutex to serialise operations in the network interface open and stop entry points with respect to the USB driver suspend and resume entry points. Move Tx and Rx data path start/stop to lan78xx_start() and lan78xx_stop() respectively and flush the packet FIFOs before starting the Tx and Rx data paths. This prevents the MAC and FIFOs getting out of step and delivery of malformed packets to the network stack. Stop processing of received packets before disconnecting the PHY from the MAC to prevent a kernel exception caused by handling packets after the PHY device has been removed. Refactor device auto-suspend code to make it consistent with the the system suspend code and make the suspend handler easier to read. Add new code to stop wake-on-lan packets or PHY events resuming the host or device from suspend if the device has not been opened (typically after an IP address is assigned). This patch is dependent on changes to lan78xx_suspend() and lan78xx_resume() introduced in the previous patch of this patch set. Signed-off-by:

The MAC can get out of step with the internal packet FIFOs if the system goes to sleep when the link is active, especially at high data rates. This can result in partial frames in the packet FIFOs that in result in malformed frames being delivered to the host. This occurs because the driver does not enable/disable the internal packet FIFOs in step with the corresponding MAC data path. The following changes fix this problem. Update code that enables/disables the MAC receiver and transmitter to the more general Rx and Tx data path, where the data path in each direction consists of both the MAC function (Tx or Rx) and the corresponding packet FIFO. In the receive path the packet FIFO must be enabled before the MAC receiver but disabled after the MAC receiver. In the transmit path the opposite is true: the packet FIFO must be enabled after the MAC transmitter but disabled before the MAC transmitter. The packet FIFOs can be flushed safely once the corresponding data path is stopped. Signed-off-by:

An exception is sometimes seen when the link speed is changed from auto-negotiation to a fixed speed, or vice versa. The exception occurs when the MAC is reset (due to the link speed change) at the same time as the PHY state machine is accessing a PHY register. The following changes fix this problem. Rework the MAC reset to ensure there is no outstanding MDIO register transaction before the reset and then wait until the reset is complete before allowing any further MAC register access.

There are many places in the driver where the return code from a function call is captured but without a subsequent test of the return code and appropriate action taken. This patch adds the missing return code tests and action. In most cases the action is an early exit from the calling function. The function lan78xx_set_suspend() was also updated to make it consistent with lan78xx_suspend(). Signed-off-by:

Juergen Gross says: ==================== xen: harden netfront against malicious backends Xen backends of para-virtualized devices can live in dom0 kernel, dom0 user land, or in a driver domain. This means that a backend might reside in a less trusted environment than the Xen core components, so a backend should not be able to do harm to a Xen guest (it can still mess up I/O data, but it shouldn't be able to e.g. crash a guest by other means or cause a privilege escalation in the guest). Unfortunately netfront in the Linux kernel is fully trusting its backend. This series is fixing netfront in this regard. It was discussed to handle this as a security problem, but the topic was discussed in public before, so it isn't a real secret. It should be mentioned that a similar series has been posted some years ago by Marek Marczykowski-Górecki, but this series has not been applied due to a Xen header not having been available in the Xen git repo at that time. Additionally my series is fixing some more DoS cases. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Today netfront will trust the backend to send only sane response data. In order to avoid privilege escalations or crashes in case of malicious backends verify the data to be within expected limits. Especially make sure that the response always references an outstanding request. Note that only the tx queue needs special id handling, as for the rx queue the id is equal to the index in the ring page. Introduce a new indicator for the device whether it is broken and let the device stop working when it is set. Set this indicator in case the backend sets any weird data. Signed-off-by:

The tx_skb_freelist elements are in a single linked list with the request id used as link reference. The per element link field is in a union with the skb pointer of an in use request. Move the link reference out of the union in order to enable a later reuse of it for requests which need a populated skb pointer. Rename add_id_to_freelist() and get_id_from_freelist() to add_id_to_list() and get_id_from_list() in order to prepare using those for other lists as well. Define ~0 as value to indicate the end of a list and place that value into the link for a request not being on the list. When freeing a skb zero the skb pointer in the request. Use a NULL value of the skb pointer instead of skb_entry_is_link() for deciding whether a request has a skb linked to it. Remove skb_entry_set_link() and open code it instead as it is really trivial now. Signed-off-by:

net-next: When a bond have a massive amount of VLANs with IPv6 addresses, performance of changing link state, attaching a VRF, changing an IPv6 address, etc. go down dramtically. The source of most of the slow down is the `dev_addr_lists.c` module, which mainatins a linked list of HW addresses. When using IPv6, this list grows for each IPv6 address added on a VLAN, since each IPv6 address has a multicast HW address associated with it. When performing any modification to the involved links, this list is traversed many times, often for nothing, all while holding the RTNL lock. Instead, this patch adds an auxilliary rbtree which cuts down traversal time significantly. Performance can be seen with the following script: #!/bin/bash ip netns del test || true 2>/dev/null ip netns add test echo 1 | ip netns exec test tee /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/all/keep_addr_on_down > /dev/null set -e ip -n test link add foo type veth peer name bar ip -n test link add b1 type bond ip -n test link add florp type vrf table 10 ip -n test link set bar master b1 ip -n test link set foo up ip -n test link set bar up ip -n test link set b1 up ip -n test link set florp up VLAN_COUNT=1500 BASE_DEV=b1 echo Creating vlans ip netns exec test time -p bash -c "for i in \$(seq 1 $VLAN_COUNT); do ip -n test link add link $BASE_DEV name foo.\$i type vlan id \$i; done" echo Bringing them up ip netns exec test time -p bash -c "for i in \$(seq 1 $VLAN_COUNT); do ip -n test link set foo.\$i up; done" echo Assiging IPv6 Addresses ip netns exec test time -p bash -c "for i in \$(seq 1 $VLAN_COUNT); do ip -n test address add dev foo.\$i 2000::\$i/64; done" echo Attaching to VRF ip netns exec test time -p bash -c "for i in \$(seq 1 $VLAN_COUNT); do ip -n test link set foo.\$i master florp; done" On an Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2650 v3 @ 2.30GHz machine, the performance before the patch is (truncated): Creating vlans real 108.35 Bringing them up real 4.96 Assiging IPv6 Addresses real 19.22 Attaching to VRF real 458.84 After the patch: Creating vlans real 5.59 Bringing them up real 5.07 Assiging IPv6 Addresses real 5.64 Attaching to VRF real 25.37 Cc: David S.

But, br_handle_ingress_vlan_tunnel() always return 0. So, the routines that check the return value and goto drop has no meaning.

There are several test cases in the net directory are still using exit 0 or exit 1 when they need to be skipped. Use kselftest framework skip code instead so it can help us to distinguish the return status. Criterion to filter out what should be fixed in net directory: grep -r "exit [01]" -B1 | grep -i skip This change might cause some false-positives if people are running these test scripts directly and only checking their return codes, which will change from 0 to 4. However I think the impact should be small as most of our scripts here are already using this skip code. And there will be no such issue if running them with the kselftest framework. Signed-off-by:

i225 supports PCIe Precision Time Measurement (PTM), allowing us to support the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl() in the driver via the getcrosststamp() function. The easiest way to expose the PTM registers would be to configure the PTM dialogs to run periodically, but the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl() semantics are more aligned to using a kind of "one-shot" way of retrieving the PTM timestamps. But this causes a bit more code to be written: the trigger registers for the PTM dialogs are not cleared automatically. i225 can be configured to send "fake" packets with the PTM information, adding support for handling these types of packets is left for the future. PTM improves the accuracy of time synchronization, for example, using phc2sys, while a simple application is sending packets as fast as possible.

For two runs of 16466 entries: without PTM: avg -0.04 stdev 10.57 max 39 min -42 with PTM: avg 0.01 stdev 4.20 max 19 min -16 One possible explanation is that when PTM is not enabled, and there's a lot of traffic in the PCIe fabric, some register reads will take more time than the others because of congestion on the PCIe fabric. When PTM is enabled, even if the PTM dialogs take more time to complete under heavy traffic, the time measurements do not depend on the time to read the registers. This was implemented following the i225 EAS version 0.993. Signed-off-by:

PCIe PTM is similar protocol to PTP (Precision Time Protocol) running in the PCIe fabric, it allows devices to report time measurements from their internal clocks and the correlation with the PCIe root clock. The i225 NIC exposes some registers that expose those time measurements, those registers will be used, in later patches, to implement the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_PRECISE ioctl(). Signed-off-by:

Add a predicate that returns if PCIe PTM (Precision Time Measurement) is enabled. It will only return true if it's enabled in all the ports in the path from the device to the root. Signed-off-by:

Make pci_enable_ptm() accessible from the drivers. Exposing this to the driver enables the driver to use the 'ptm_enabled' field of 'pci_dev' to check if PTM is enabled or not. This reverts commit ac6c26da ("PCI: Make pci_enable_ptm() private"). Signed-off-by:

For device whose version is above V3(include V3), the GL can select EQE or CQE mode, so adds support for it. In CQE mode, the coalesced timer will restart when the first new completion occurs, while in EQE mode, the timer will not restart. Signed-off-by:

In order to support more coalesce parameters through netlink, add two new parameter kernel_coal and extack for .set_coalesce and .get_coalesce, then some extra info can return to user with the netlink API. Signed-off-by:

Currently, there are many drivers who support CQE mode configuration, some configure it as a fixed when initialized, some provide an interface to change it by ethtool private flags. In order to make it more generic, add two new 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_TX' and 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_RX' coalesce attributes, then these parameters can be accessed by ethtool netlink coalesce uAPI. Also add an new structure kernel_ethtool_coalesce, then the new parameter can be added into this struct. Signed-off-by:

Both struct netdev_rx_queue and struct xdp_rxq_info are cacheline aligned. This causes extra padding before and after the xdp_rxq member. Move the member upfront, so that it's naturally aligned. Before: /* size: 256, cachelines: 4, members: 6 */ /* sum members: 160, holes: 1, sum holes: 40 */ /* padding: 56 */ /* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 36 */ /* forced alignments: 1, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 40 */ After: /* size: 192, cachelines: 3, members: 6 */ /* padding: 32 */ /* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 36 */ /* forced alignments: 1 */ Acked-by:

ASPM is disabled completely because we've seen different types of problems in the past. However it seems these problems occurred with L1 or L1 sub-states only. On all the chip versions I've seen the acceptable L0s exit latency is 512ns. This should be short enough not to cause problems. If the actual L0s exit latency of the PCIe link is bigger than 512ns then the PCI core will disable L0s anyway. So let's give it a try and disable L1 and L1 sub-states only. Signed-off-by:
