Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== The DSA TX timestamping situation This series is the moral v2 of "[PATCH net] net: dsa: sja1105: Fix double delivery of TX timestamps to socket error queue" [0] which did not manage to convince public opinion (actually it didn't convince me neither). This fixes PTP timestamping on one particular board, where the DSA switch is sja1105 and the master is gianfar. Unfortunately there is no way to make the fix more general without committing logical inaccuracies: the SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS flag does serve a purpose, even if the sja1105 driver is not using it now: it prevents delivering a SW timestamp to the app socket when the HW timestamp will be provided. So not setting this flag (the approach from v1) might create avoidable complications in the future (not to mention that there isn't any satisfactory explanation on why that would be the correct solution). So the goal of this change set is to create a more strict framework for DSA master devices when attached to PTP switches, and to fix the first master driver that is overstepping its duties and is delivering unsolicited TX timestamps.

It is possible to kill PTP on a DSA switch completely and absolutely, until a reboot, with a simple command: tcpdump -i eth2 -j adapter_unsynced where eth2 is the switch's DSA master. Why? Well, in short, the PTP API in place today is a bit rudimentary and relies on applications to retrieve the TX timestamps by polling the error queue and looking at the cmsg structure. But there is no timestamp identification of any sorts (except whether it's HW or SW), you don't know how many more timestamps are there to come, which one is this one, from whom it is, etc. In other words, the SO_TIMESTAMPING API is fundamentally limited in that you can get a single HW timestamp from the stack. And the "-j adapter_unsynced" flag of tcpdump enables hardware timestamping. So let's imagine what happens when the DSA master decides it wants to deliver TX timestamps to the skb's socket too: - The timestamp that the user space sees is taken by the DSA master. Whereas the RX timestamp will eventually be overwritten by the DSA switch. So the RX and TX timestamps will be in different time bases (aka garbage). - The user space applications have no way to deal with the second (real) TX timestamp finally delivered by the DSA switch, or even to know to wait for it. Take ptp4l from the linuxptp project, for example. This is its behavior after running tcpdump, before the patch: ptp4l[172]: [6469.594] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: [6469.693] rms 8 max 16 freq -21257 +/- 11 delay 748 +/- 0 ptp4l[172]: [6469.711] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 03 aa 05 00 fd ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: [6469.721] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0000 01 80 c2 00 00 0e 00 1f 7b 63 02 48 88 f7 10 02 ptp4l[172]: 0010 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 01 c6 b1 00 fd ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: [6469.838] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0000 01 80 c2 00 00 0e 00 1f 7b 63 02 48 88 f7 10 02 ptp4l[172]: 0010 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 03 aa 06 00 fd ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: [6469.848] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0000 01 80 c2 00 00 0e 00 1f 7b 63 02 48 88 f7 13 02 ptp4l[172]: 0010 00 36 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 04 1a 45 05 7f ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 5e 05 41 32 27 c2 1a 68 00 04 9f ff fe 05 ptp4l[172]: 0040 de 06 00 01 ptp4l[172]: [6469.855] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0000 01 80 c2 00 00 0e 00 1f 7b 63 02 48 88 f7 10 02 ptp4l[172]: 0010 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 01 c6 b2 00 fd ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: [6469.974] Unexpected data on socket err queue: ptp4l[172]: 0000 01 80 c2 00 00 0e 00 1f 7b 63 02 48 88 f7 10 02 ptp4l[172]: 0010 00 2c 00 00 02 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 ptp4l[172]: 0020 00 00 00 1f 7b ff fe 63 02 48 00 03 aa 07 00 fd ptp4l[172]: 0030 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 The ptp4l program itself is heavily patched to show this (more details here [0]). Otherwise, by default it just hangs. On the other hand, with the DSA patch to disallow HW timestamping applied: tcpdump -i eth2 -j adapter_unsynced tcpdump: SIOCSHWTSTAMP failed: Device or resource busy So it is a fact of life that PTP timestamping on the DSA master is incompatible with timestamping on the switch MAC, at least with the current API. And if the switch supports PTP, taking the timestamps from the switch MAC is highly preferable anyway, due to the fact that those don't contain the queuing latencies of the switch. So just disallow PTP on the DSA master if there is any PTP-capable switch attached.

The driver wrongly assumes that it is the only entity that can set the SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS bit of the current skb. Therefore, in the gfar_clean_tx_ring function, where the TX timestamp is collected if necessary, the aforementioned bit is used to discriminate whether or not the TX timestamp should be delivered to the socket's error queue. But a stacked driver such as a DSA switch can also set the SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS bit, which is actually exactly what it should do in order to denote that the hardware timestamping process is undergoing. Therefore, gianfar would misinterpret the "in progress" bit as being its own, and deliver a second skb clone in the socket's error queue, completely throwing off a PTP process which is not expecting to receive it, _even though_ TX timestamping is not enabled for gianfar. There have been discussions [0] as to whether non-MAC drivers need or not to set SKBTX_IN_PROGRESS at all (whose purpose is to avoid sending 2 timestamps, a sw and a hw one, to applications which only expect one). But as of this patch, there are at least 2 PTP drivers that would break in conjunction with gianfar: the sja1105 DSA switch and the felix switch, by way of its ocelot core driver. So regardless of that conclusion, fix the gianfar driver to not do stuff based on flags set by others and not intended for it.

Michal Kubecek says: ==================== ethtool netlink interface, part 1 This is first part of netlink based alternative userspace interface for ethtool. It aims to address some long known issues with the ioctl interface, mainly lack of extensibility, raciness, limited error reporting and absence of notifications. The goal is to allow userspace ethtool utility to provide all features it currently does but without using the ioctl interface. However, some features provided by ethtool ioctl API will be available through other netlink interfaces (rtnetlink, devlink) if it's more appropriate. The interface uses generic netlink family "ethtool" and provides multicast group "monitor" which is used for notifications. Documentation for the interface is in Documentation/networking/ethtool-netlink.rst file. The netlink interface is optional, it is built when CONFIG_ETHTOOL_NETLINK (bool) option is enabled. There are three types of request messages distinguished by suffix "_GET" (query for information), "_SET" (modify parameters) and "_ACT" (perform an action). Kernel reply messages have name with additional suffix "_REPLY" (e.g. ETHTOOL_MSG_SETTINGS_GET_REPLY). Most "_SET" and "_ACT" message types do not have matching reply type as only some of them need additional reply data beyond numeric error code and extack. Kernel also broadcasts notification messages ("_NTF" suffix) on changes. Basic concepts: - make extensions easier not only by allowing new attributes but also by imposing as few artificial limits as possible, e.g. by using arbitrary size bit sets for most bitmap attributes or by not using fixed size strings - use extack for error reporting and warnings - send netlink notifications on changes (even if they were done using the ioctl interface) and actions - avoid the racy read/modify/write cycle between kernel and userspace by sending only attributes which userspace wants to change; there is still a read/modify/write cycle between generic kernel code and ethtool_ops handler in NIC driver but it is only in kernel and under RTNL lock - reduce the number of name lists that need to be kept in sync between kernel and userspace (e.g. recognized link modes) - where feasible, allow dump requests to query specific information for all network devices - as parsing and generating netlink messages is more complicated than simply copying data structures between userspace API and ethtool_ops handlers (which most ioctl commands do), split the code into multiple files in net/ethtool directory; move net/core/ethtool.c also to this directory and rename it to ioctl.c Changes between v8 and v9: - fix ethnl_update_u8() - fix description of ETHTOOL_A_LINKSTATE_LINK in rst file - add explanation of verbose vs. compact bitset usage to documentation - link ethtool-netlink.rst into toctree Main changes between v7 and v8: - preliminary patches sent as a separate series (already in net-next) - split notification related changes out of _SET patches - drop request specific flags from common header - use FLAG/flag rather than GFLAG/gflag for global flags (as there are only global flags now) - allow device names up to ALTIFNAMSIZ characters - rename ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_LIST to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK - rename ETHTOOL_A_BIT{,S}_* to ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT{,S}_* - use standard bitset helpers for link modes (rather than in-place conversion) - use "default" rather than "standard" for unified _GET handlers - fixed 64-bit big endian bitset code Main changes between v6 and v7: - split complex messages into small single purpose ones (drop info and request masks and one level of nesting) - separate request information and reply data into two structures - refactor bitset handling (no simultaneous u32/ulong handling but avoid kmalloc() except for long bitmaps on 64-bit big endian architectures) - use only fixed size strings internally (will be replaced by char * eventually but that will require rewriting also existing ioctl code) - rework ethnl_update_* helpers to return error code - rename request flag constants (to ETHTOOL_[GR]FLAG_ prefix) - convert documentation to rst Main changes between v5 and v6: - use ETHTOOL_MSG_ prefix for message types - replace ETHA_ prefix for netlink attributes by ETHTOOL_A_ - replace ETH_x_IM_y for infomask bits by ETHTOOL_IM_x_y - split GET reply types from SET requests and notifications - split kernel and userspace message types into different enums - remove INFO_GET requests from submitted part - drop EVENT notifications (use rtnetlink and on-demand string set load) - reorganize patches to reduce the number of intermitent warnings - unify request/reply header and its processing - another nest around strings in a string set for consistency - more consistent identifier naming - coding style cleanup - get rid of some of the helpers - set bad attribute in extack where applicable - various bug fixes - improve documentation and code comments, more kerneldoc comments - more verbose commit messages Changes between v4 and v5: - do not panic on failed initialization, only WARN() Main changes between RFC v3 and v4: - use more kerneldoc style comments - strict attribute policy checking - use macros for tables of link mode names and parameters - provide permanent hardware address in rtnetlink - coding style cleanup - split too long patches, reorder - wrap more ETHA_SETTINGS_* attributes in nests - add also some SET_* implementation into submitted part Main changes between RFC v2 and RFC v3: - do not allow building as a module (no netdev notifiers needed) - drop some obsolete fields - add permanent hw address, timestamping and private flags support - rework bitset handling to get rid of variable length arrays - notify monitor on device renames - restructure GET_SETTINGS/SET_SETTINGS messages - split too long patches and submit only first part of the series Main changes between RFC v1 and RFC v2: - support dumps for all "get" requests - provide notifications for changes related to supported request types - support getting string sets (both global and per device) - support getting/setting device features - get rid of family specific header, everything passed as attributes - split netlink code into multiple files in net/ethtool/ directory ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

There are three types of requests: - no NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get "global" stringsets - no NLM_F_DUMP, with device: get string sets related to the device - NLM_F_DUMP, no device: get device related string sets for all devices Client can request either all string sets of given type (global or device related) or only specific sets. With ETHTOOL_A_STRSET_COUNTS flag set, only set sizes (numbers of strings) are returned.

Significant part of GET request processing is common for most request types but unfortunately it cannot be easily separated from type specific code as we need to alternate between common actions (parsing common request header, allocating message and filling netlink/genetlink headers etc.) and specific actions (querying the device, composing the reply). The processing also happens in three different situations: "do" request, "dump" request and notification, each doing things in slightly different way. The request specific code is implemented in four or five callbacks defined in an instance of struct get_request_ops: parse_request() - parse incoming message prepare_data() - retrieve data from driver or NIC reply_size() - estimate reply message size fill_reply() - compose reply message cleanup_data() - (optional) clean up additional data Other members of struct get_request_ops describe the data structure holding information from client request and data used to compose the message. The default handlers ethnl_default_doit(), ethnl_default_dumpit(), ethnl_default_start() and ethnl_default_done() can be then used in genl_ops handler. Notification handler will be introduced in a later patch. Signed-off-by: Michal Kubecek <mkubecek@suse.cz> Reviewed-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add infrastructure for ethtool netlink notifications. There is only one multicast group "monitor" which is used to notify userspace about changes and actions performed. Notification messages (types using suffix _NTF) share the format with replies to GET requests. Notifications are supposed to be broadcasted on every configuration change, whether it is done using the netlink interface or ioctl one. Netlink SET requests only trigger a notification if some data is actually changed. To trigger an ethtool notification, both ethtool netlink and external code use ethtool_notify() helper. This helper requires RTNL to be held and may sleep. Handlers sending messages for specific notification message types are registered in ethnl_notify_handlers array. As notifications can be triggered from other code, ethnl_ok flag is used to prevent an attempt to send notification before genetlink family is registered.

The ethtool netlink code uses common framework for passing arbitrary length bit sets to allow future extensions. A bitset can be a list (only one bitmap) or can consist of value and mask pair (used e.g. when client want to modify only some bits). A bitset can use one of two formats: verbose (bit by bit) or compact. Verbose format consists of bitset size (number of bits), list flag and an array of bit nests, telling which bits are part of the list or which bits are in the mask and which of them are to be set. In requests, bits can be identified by index (position) or by name. In replies, kernel provides both index and name. Verbose format is suitable for "one shot" applications like standard ethtool command as it avoids the need to either keep bit names (e.g. link modes) in sync with kernel or having to add an extra roundtrip for string set request (e.g. for private flags). Compact format uses one (list) or two (value/mask) arrays of 32-bit words to store the bitmap(s). It is more suitable for long running applications (ethtool in monitor mode or network management daemons) which can retrieve the names once and then pass only compact bitmaps to save space. Userspace requests can use either format; ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS flag in request header tells kernel which format to use in reply. Notifications always use compact format. As some code uses arrays of unsigned long for internal representation and some arrays of u32 (or even a single u32), two sets of parse/compose helpers are introduced. To avoid code duplication, helpers for unsigned long arrays are implemented as wrappers around helpers for u32 arrays. There are two reasons for this choice: (1) u32 arrays are more frequent in ethtool code and (2) unsigned long array can be always interpreted as an u32 array on little endian 64-bit and all 32-bit architectures while we would need special handling for odd number of u32 words in the opposite direction.

The function sctp_sf_eat_sack_6_2 now performs the Verification Tag validation, Chunk length validation, Bogu check, and also the detection of out-of-order SACK based on the RFC2960 Section 6.2 at the beginning, and finally performs the further processing of SACK. The trace_sctp_probe now triggered before the above necessary validation and check. this patch is to do the trace_sctp_probe after the chunk sanity tests, but keep doing trace if the SACK received is out of order, for the out-of-order SACK is valuable to congestion control debugging. v1->v2: - keep doing SCTP trace if the SACK is out of order as Marcelo's suggestion. v2->v3: - regenerate the patch as v2 generated on top of v1, and add 'net-next' tag to the new one as Marcelo's comments.

For years we disabled Hystart ACK train detection at Google because it was fooled by TCP pacing. ACK train detection uses a simple heuristic, detecting if we receive ACK past half the RTT, to exit slow start before hitting the bottleneck and experience massive drops. But pacing by design might delay packets up to RTT/2, so we need to tweak the Hystart logic to be aware of this extra delay. Tested: Added a 100 usec delay at receiver.

After switching ca->delay_min to usec resolution, we exit slow start prematurely for very low RTT flows, setting snd_ssthresh to 20. The reason is that delay_min is fed with RTT of small packet trains. Then as cwnd is increased, TCP sends bigger TSO packets. LRO/GRO aggregation and/or interrupt mitigation strategies on receiver tend to inflate RTT samples. Fix this by adding to delay_min the expected delay of two TSO packets, given current pacing rate. Tested: Sender uses pfifo_fast qdisc Before : $ nstat -n;for f in {1..10}; do ./super_netperf 1 -H lpaa24 -l -4000000; done;nstat|egrep "Hystart" 11348 11707 11562 11428 11773 11534 9878 11693 10597 10968 TcpExtTCPHystartTrainDetect 10 0.0 TcpExtTCPHystartTrainCwnd 200 0.0 After : $ nstat -n;for f in {1..10}; do ./super_netperf 1 -H lpaa24 -l -4000000; done;nstat|egrep "Hystart" 14877 14517 15797 18466 17376 14833 17558 17933 16039 18059 TcpExtTCPHystartTrainDetect 10 0.0 TcpExtTCPHystartTrainCwnd 1670 0.0 Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Current 1ms clock feeds ca->round_start, ca->delay_min, ca->last_ack. This is quite problematic for data-center flows, where delay_min is way below 1 ms. This means Hystart Train detection triggers every time jiffies value is updated, since "((s32)(now - ca->round_start) > ca->delay_min >> 4)" expression becomes true. This kind of random behavior can be solved by reusing the existing usec timestamp that TCP keeps in tp->tcp_mstamp Note that a followup patch will tweak things a bit, because during slow start, GRO aggregation on receivers naturally increases the RTT as TSO packets gradually come to ~64KB size. To recap, right after this patch CUBIC Hystart train detection is more aggressive, since short RTT flows might exit slow start at cwnd = 20, instead of being possibly unbounded. Following patch will address this problem. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Neal Cardwell <ncardwell@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Always take the chunk with offsetofend(). Note that there is one where the fields differ in here: <<<<<<< HEAD if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetof(struct __sk_buff, tstamp) + sizeof_field(struct __sk_buff, tstamp), ======= if (!range_is_zero(__skb, offsetofend(struct __sk_buff, gso_segs), >>>>>>> 7c8dce4b Just take the one with offsetofend() /and/ gso_segs. Latter is correct due to 850a88cc ("bpf: Expose __sk_buff wire_len/gso_segs to BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN"). 2) Merge conflict in arch/riscv/net/bpf_jit_comp.c: (I'm keeping Bjorn in Cc here for a double-check in case I got it wrong.) <<<<<<< HEAD if (is_13b_check(off, insn)) return -1; emit(rv_blt(tcc, RV_REG_ZERO, off >> 1), ctx); ======= emit_branch(BPF_JSLT, RV_REG_T1, RV_REG_ZERO, off, ctx); >>>>>>> 7c8dce4b Result should look like: emit_branch(BPF_JSLT, tcc, RV_REG_ZERO, off, ctx); 3) Merge conflict in arch/riscv/include/asm/pgtable.h: <<<<<<< HEAD ======= #define VMALLOC_SIZE (KERN_VIRT_SIZE >> 1) #define VMALLOC_END (PAGE_OFFSET - 1) #define VMALLOC_START (PAGE_OFFSET - VMALLOC_SIZE) #define BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE (SZ_128M) #define BPF_JIT_REGION_START (PAGE_OFFSET - BPF_JIT_REGION_SIZE) #define BPF_JIT_REGION_END (VMALLOC_END) /* * Roughly size the vmemmap space to be large enough to fit enough * struct pages to map half the virtual address space.

By re-attaching RX, TX, and CTL rings during connect() rather than assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e. assuming the counters are zero), and avoiding forcing state to Closed in netback_remove() it is possible for vif instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to (respectively) a running guest. Dynamic unbind/bind is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it allows it to be unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring domUs to be halted. This has been tested by running iperf as a server in the test VM and then running a client against it in a continuous loop, whilst also running: while true; do echo vif-$DOMID-$VIF >unbind; echo down; rmmod xen-netback; echo unloaded; modprobe xen-netback; cd $(pwd); brctl addif xenbr0 vif$DOMID.$VIF; ip link set vif$DOMID.$VIF up; echo up; sleep 5; done in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vif to continuously unbind, unload, re-load, re-bind and re-plumb the backend. Clearly a performance drop was seen but no TCP connection resets were observed during this test and moreover a parallel SSH connection into the guest remained perfectly usable throughout.
