Robert Hancock says: ==================== MACB NAPI improvements Simplify the logic in the Cadence MACB/GEM driver for determining when to reschedule NAPI processing, and update it to use NAPI for the TX path as well as the RX path. Changes since v1: Changed to use separate TX and RX NAPI instances and poll functions to avoid unnecessary checks of the other ring (TX/RX) states during polling and to use budget handling for both RX and TX. Fixed locking to protect against concurrent access to TX ring on TX transmit and TX poll paths. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220509194635.3094080-1-robert.hancock@calian.comSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

This driver was using the TX IRQ handler to perform all TX completion tasks. Under heavy TX network load, this can cause significant irqs-off latencies (found to be in the hundreds of microseconds using ftrace). This can cause other issues, such as overrunning serial UART FIFOs when using high baud rates with limited UART FIFO sizes. Switch to using a NAPI poll handler to perform the TX completion work to get this out of hard IRQ context and avoid the IRQ latency impact. A separate NAPI instance is used for TX and RX to avoid checking the other ring's state unnecessarily when doing the poll, and so that the NAPI budget handling can work for both TX and RX packets. A new per-queue tx_ptr_lock spinlock has been added to avoid using the main device lock (with IRQs needing to be disabled) across the entire TX mapping operation, and also to protect the TX queue pointers from concurrent access between the TX start and TX poll operations. The TX Used Bit Read interrupt (TXUBR) handling also needs to be moved into the TX NAPI poll handler to maintain the proper order of operations. A flag is used to notify the poll handler that a UBR condition needs to be handled. The macb_tx_restart handler has had some locking added for global register access, since this could now potentially happen concurrently on different queues.

Previously the macb_poll method was checking the RSR register after completing its RX receive work to see if additional packets had been received since IRQs were disabled, since this controller does not maintain the pending IRQ status across IRQ disable. It also had to double-check the register after re-enabling IRQs to detect if packets were received after the first check but before IRQs were enabled. Using the RSR register for this purpose is problematic since it reflects the global device state rather than the per-queue state, so if packets are being received on multiple queues it may end up retriggering receive on a queue where the packets did not actually arrive and not on the one where they did arrive. This will also cause problems with an upcoming change to use NAPI for the TX path where use of multiple queues is more likely. Add a macb_rx_pending function to check the RX ring to see if more packets have arrived in the queue, and use that to check if NAPI should be rescheduled rather than the RSR register. By doing this, we can just ignore the global RSR register entirely, and thus save some extra device register accesses at the same time. This also makes the previous first check for pending packets rather redundant, since it would be checking the RX ring state which was just checked in the receive work function. Therefore we can get rid of it and just check after enabling interrupts whether packets are already pending.

The host interfaces $h1 and $h2 don't have to be switchdev interfaces, but due to the fact that we pass $tcflags which may have the value of "skip_sw", we force $h2 to offload a drop rule for dst_ip, something which it may not be able to do. The selftest only wants to verify the hit count of this rule as a means of figuring out whether the packet was received, so remove the $tcflags for it and let it be done in software.

Starting with ConnectX-7 HCAs with 4 ports are possible. As most driver parts aren't affected by such configuration most driver code is unchanged. Specially the only affected areas are: - Lag - Devcom - Merged E-Switch - Single FDB E-Switch Lag was chosen to be converted first. Creating hardware LAG when all 4 ports are added to the same bond device. Devom, merge E-Switch and single FDB E-Switch, are marked as supporting only 2 ports HCAs and future patches will add support for 4 ports HCAs. In order to activate the hardware lag a user can execute the: ip link add bond0 type bond ip link set bond0 type bond miimon 100 mode 2 ip link set eth2 master bond0 ip link set eth3 master bond0 ip link set eth4 master bond0 ip link set eth5 master bond0 Where eth2, eth3, eth4 and eth5 are the PFs of the same HCA. ================ ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Martin Habets says: ==================== Move Siena into a separate subdirectory The Siena NICs (SFN5000 and SFN6000 series) went EOL in November 2021. Most of these adapters have been remove from our test labs, and testing has been reduced to a minimum. This patch series creates a separate kernel module for the Siena architecture, analogous to what was done for Falcon some years ago. This reduces our maintenance for the sfc.ko module, and allows us to enhance the EF10 and EF100 drivers without the risk of breaking Siena NICs. After this series further enhancements are needed to differentiate the new kernel module from sfc.ko, and the Siena code can be removed from sfc.ko. Thes will be posted as a small follow-up series. The Siena module is not built by default, but can be enabled using Kconfig option SFC_SIENA. This will create module sfc-siena.ko. Patches Patches 1-3 establish the code base for the Siena driver. Patches 4-10 ensure the allyesconfig build succeeds. Patch 11 adds the basic Siena module. I do not expect patch 1 through 3 to be reviewed, they are FYI only. No checkpatch issues were resolved as part of these, but they were fixed in the subsequent patches. Testing Various build tests were done such as allyesconfig, W=1 and sparse. The new sfc-siena.ko and sfc.ko modules were tested on a machine with both these NICs in them, and several tests were run on both drivers. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/165211018297.5289.9658523545298485394.stgit@palantir17.mph.netSigned-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
