Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2019-09-03 This series contains updates to ice driver only. Anirudh adds the ability for the driver to handle EMP resets correctly by adding the logic to the existing ice_reset_subtask(). Jeb fixes up the logic to properly free up the resources for a switch rule whether or not it was successful in the removal. Brett fixes up the reporting of ITR values to let the user know odd ITR values are not allowed. Fixes the driver to only disable VLAN pruning on VLAN deletion when the VLAN being deleted is the last VLAN on the VF VSI. Chinh updates the driver to determine the TSA value from the priority value when in CEE mode. Bruce aligns the driver with the hardware specification by ensuring that a PF reset is done as part of the unload logic. Also update the driver unloading field, based on the latest hardware specification, which allows us to remove an unnecessary endian conversion. Moves #defines based on their need in the code. Jesse adds the current state of auto-negotiation in the link up message. In addition, adds additional information to inform the user of an issue with the topology/configuration of the link. Usha updates the driver to allow the maximum TCs that the firmware supports, rather than hard coding to a set value. Dave updates the DCB initialization flow to handle the case of an actual error during DCB init. Updated the driver to report the current stats, even when the netdev is down, which aligns with our other drivers. Mitch fixes the VF reset code flows to ensure that it properly calls ice_dis_vsi_txq() to notify the firmware that the VF is being reset. Michal fixes the driver so the DCB is not enabled when the SW LLDP is activated, which was causing a communication issue with other NICs. The problem lies in that DCB was being enabled without checking the number of TCs. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-updates-2019-09-01 (Software steering support) Abstract: -------- Mellanox ConnetX devices supports packet matching, packet modification and redirection. These functionalities are also referred to as flow-steering. To configure a steering rule, the rule is written to the device owned memory, this memory is accessed and cached by the device when processing a packet. Steering rules are constructed from multiple steering entries (STE). Rules are configured using the Firmware command interface. The Firmware processes the given driver command and translates them to STEs, then writes them to the device memory in the current steering tables. This process is slow due to the architecture of the command interface and the processing complexity of each rule. The highlight of this patchset is to cut the middle man (The firmware) and do steering rules programming into device directly from the driver, with no firmware intervention whatsoever. Motivation: ----------- Software (driver managed) steering allows for high rule insertion rates compared to the FW steering described above, this is achieved by using internal RDMA writes to the device owned memory instead of the slow command interface to program steering rules. Software (driver managed) steering, doesn't depend on new FW for new steering functionality, new implementations can be done in the driver skipping the FW layer. Performance: ------------ The insertion rate on a single core using the new approach allows programming ~300K rules per sec. (Done via direct raw test to the new mlx5 sw steering layer, without any kernel layer involved). Test: TC L2 rules 33K/s with Software steering (this patchset). 5K/s with FW and current driver. This will improve OVS based solution performance. Architecture and implementation details: ---------------------------------------- Software steering will be dynamically selected via devlink device parameter. Example: $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode pci/0000:06:00.0: name flow_steering_mode type driver-specific values: cmode runtime value smfs mlx5 software steering module a.k.a (DR - Direct Rule) is implemented and contained in mlx5/core/steering directory and controlled by MLX5_SW_STEERING kconfig flag. mlx5 core steering layer (fs_core) already provides a shim layer for implementing different steering mechanisms, software steering will leverage that as seen at the end of this series. When Software Steering for a specific steering domain (NIC/RDMA/Vport/ESwitch, etc ..) is supported, it will cause rules targeting this domain to be created using SW steering instead of FW. The implementation includes: Domain - The steering domain is the object that all other object resides in. It holds the memory allocator, send engine, locks and other shared data needed by lower objects such as table, matcher, rule, action. Each domain can contain multiple tables. Domain is equivalent to namespaces e.g (NIC/RDMA/Vport/ESwitch, etc ..) as implemented currently in mlx5_core fs_core (flow steering core). Table - Table objects are used for holding multiple matchers, each table has a level used to prevent processing loops. Packets are being directed to this table once it is set as the root table, this is done by fs_core using a FW command. A packet is being processed inside the table matcher by matcher until a successful hit, otherwise the packet will perform the default action. Matcher - Matchers objects are used to specify the fields mask for matching when processing a packet. A matcher belongs to a table, each matcher can hold multiple rules, each rule with different matching values corresponding to the matcher mask. Each matcher has a priority used for rule processing order inside the table. Action - Action objects are created to specify different steering actions such as count, reformat (encapsulate, decapsulate, ...), modify header, forward to table and many other actions. When creating a rule a sequence of actions can be provided to be executed on a successful match. Rule - Rule objects are used to specify a specific match on packets as well as the actions that should be executed. A rule belongs to a matcher. STE - This layer is used to hold the specific STE format for the device and to convert the requested rule to STEs. Each rule is constructed of an STE chain, Multiple rules construct a steering graph. Each node in the graph is a hash table containing multiple STEs. The index of each STE in the hash table is being calculated using a CRC32 hash function. Memory pool - Used for managing and caching device owned memory for rule insertion. The memory is being allocated using DM (device memory) API. Communication with device - layer for standard RDMA operation using RC QP to configure the device steering. Command utility - This module holds all of the FW commands that are required for SW steering to function. Patch planning and files: ------------------------- 1) First patch, adds the support to Add flow steering actions to fs_cmd shim layer. 2) Next 12 patch will add a file per each Software steering functionality/module as described above. (See patches with title: DR, *) 3) Add CONFIG_MLX5_SW_STEERING for software steering support and enable build with the new files 4) Next two patches will add the support for software steering in mlx5 steering shim layer net/mlx5: Add API to set the namespace steering mode net/mlx5: Add direct rule fs_cmd implementation 5) Last two patches will add the new devlink parameter to select mlx5 steering mode, will be valid only for switchdev mode for now. Two modes are supported: 1. DMFS - Device managed flow steering 2. SMFS - Software/Driver managed flow steering. In the DMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created through the FW. In the SMFS mode this entities are created though the driver directly. The driver will use the devlink steering mode only if the steering domain supports it, for now SMFS will manages only the switchdev eswitch steering domain. User command examples: - Set SMFS flow steering mode:: $ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode value "smfs" cmode runtime - Read device flow steering mode:: $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode pci/0000:06:00.0: name flow_steering_mode type driver-specific values: cmode runtime value smfs ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently if the VF adds a VLAN, VLAN pruning will be enabled for that VSI. Also, when a VLAN gets deleted it will disable VLAN pruning even if other VLAN(s) exists for the VF. Fix this by only disabling VLAN pruning on the VF VSI when removing the last VF (i.e. vf->num_vlan == 0).

Remove code that enables DCB in initialization when SW LLDP is activated. DCB flag is set or reset before in ice_init_pf_dcb based on number of TCs. So there is not need to overwrite it. Setting DCB without checking number of TCs can cause communication problems with other cards. Host card sends packet with VLAN priority tag, but client card doesn't strip this tag and ping doesn't work.

Currently if the user sets an odd value for [tx|rx]-usecs we align the value because the hardware only understands ITR values in multiples of 2. This seems misleading because we are essentially telling the user that the ITR value is odd, when in fact we have changed it internally. Fix this by reporting that setting odd ITR values is not allowed. Also, while making changes to ice_set_rc_coalesce() I noticed a bit of code/error duplication.

Rules are the actual objects that tie matchers, header values and actions. Each rule belongs to a matcher, which can hold multiple rules sharing the same mask. Each rule is a specific set of values and actions. When a packet reaches a matcher it is being matched against the matcher`s rules. In case of a match over a rule its actions will be executed. Each rule object contains a set of STEs, where each STE is a definition of match values and actions defined by the rule. This file handles the rule operations and processing.

ICM device memory is used for writing steering rules (STEs) to the NIC. An ICM memory pool allocator was implemented to manage the required memory. The pool consists of buckets, a bucket per chunk size. Once a bucket is empty we will cut a row of memory from the latest allocated MR, if the MR size is not sufficient we will allocate a new MR. HW design requires that chunks memory address should be aligned to the chunk size, this is the reason for managing the MR with row size that insures memory alignment. Current design is greedy in memory but provides quick allocation times in steady state.

Matteo Croce says: ==================== mvpp2: per-cpu buffers This patchset workarounds an PP2 HW limitation which prevents to use per-cpu rx buffers. The first patch is just a refactor to prepare for the second one. The second one allocates percpu buffers if the following conditions are met: - CPU number is less or equal 4 - no port is using jumbo frames If the following conditions are not met at load time, of jumbo frame is enabled later on, the shared allocation is reverted. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Matteo Croce authored
Every mvpp2 unit can use up to 8 buffers mapped by the BM (the HW buffer manager). The HW will place the frames in the buffer pool depending on the frame size: short (< 128 bytes), long (< 1664) or jumbo (up to 9856). As any unit can have up to 4 ports, the driver allocates only 2 pools, one for small and one long frames, and share them between ports. When the first port MTU is set higher than 1664 bytes, a third pool is allocated for jumbo frames. This shared allocation makes impossible to use percpu allocators, and creates contention between HW queues. If possible, i.e. if the number of possible CPU are less than 8 and jumbo frames are not used, switch to a new scheme: allocate 8 per-cpu pools for short and long frames and bind every pool to an RXQ. When the first port MTU is set higher than 1664 bytes, the allocation scheme is reverted to the old behaviour (3 shared pools), and when all ports MTU are lowered, the per-cpu buffers are allocated again.
