Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-07-17 This series contains updates to igb, ixgbe, ixgbevf, i40e, bnx2x, freescale, siena and dp83640. Jacob provides several patches to clarify the intended way to implement both SIOCSHWTSTAMP and ethtool's get_ts_info(). It is okay to support the specific filters in SIOCSHWTSTAMP by upscaling them to the generic filters. Alex Duyck provides a igb patch to pull the time stamp from the fragment before it gets added to the skb, to avoid a possible issue in which the fragment can possibly be less than IGB_RX_HDR_LEN due to the time stamp being pulled after the copybreak check. Also provides a ixgbevf patch to fold the ixgbevf_pull_tail() call into ixgbevf_add_rx_frag(), which gives the advantage that the fragment does not have to be modified after it is added to the skb. Fan provides patches for ixgbe/ixgbevf to set the receive hash type based on receive descriptor RSS type. Todd provides a fix for igb where on check for link on any media other than copper was not being detected since it was looking on the incorrect PHY page (due to the page being used gets switched before the function to check link gets executed). ==================== Signed-off-by:David S.

Florian Fainelli says: ==================== net: bcmgenet: PHY initialization rework This patch series reworks how we perform PHY initialization and resets in the GENET driver. Although this contains mostly fixes, some of the changes are a bit too intrusive to be backported to 'net' at the moment. Some of the motivations behind these changes were to reduce the time spent in how performing MDIO transactions, since it is better to perform then when we have interrupts enabled. This reduces the bring-up time of GENET from ~600 msecs down to ~8 msecs, and about the same time for suspend/resume. Since I do not currently have a system which is not DT-aware, can you (Petri, Jaedon) give this a try and confirm things keep working as expected? ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Now that we have reworked the way we perform the PHY initialization, we no longer need to differentiate between init time vs. non-init time calls, just use a dev_info_once() print to print the PHY type. Signed-off-by:

We are currently doing a full PHY initialization and even starting the pHY state machine during bcmgenet_mii_init() which is executed in the driver's probe function. This is convenient to determine whether we can attach to a proper PHY device but comes at the expense of spending up to 10ms per MDIO transactions (to reach the waitqueue timeout), which slows things down. This also creates a sitaution where we end-up attaching twice to the PHY, which is not quite correct either. Fix this by moving bcmgenet_mii_probe() into bcmgenet_open() and update its error path accordingly. Avoid printing the message "attached PHY at address 1 [...]" every time we bring up/down the interface and remove this print since it duplicates what the PHY driver already does for us.

Our internal GPHY might be powered off before we attempt scanning the MDIO bus and bind a driver to it. The way we are currently determining whether a PHY is internal or not is done *after* we have successfully matched its driver. If the PHY is powered down, it will not respond to the MDIO bus, so we will not be able to bind a driver to it. Our Device Tree for GENET interfaces specifies a "phy-mode" value: "internal" which tells if this internal uses an internal PHY or not. If of_get_phy_mode() fails to parse the 'phy-mode' property, do an additional manual lookup, and if we find "internal" set the corresponding internal variable accordingly. Replace all uses of phy_is_internal() with a check against priv->internal_phy to avoid having to rely on whether or not priv->phydev is set correctly.

We are currently disabling the GPHY interface during bcmgenet_close(), and attempting to power it back on during bcmgenet_open(). This works fine for the first time, because we called bcmgenet_mii_config() which took care of enabling the interface, however, bcmgenet_power_up() really needs to power on the GPHY for correctness. This will be particularly important as we want to move bcmgenet_mii_probe() down to bcmgenet_open() to avoid seeing the "PHY already attached" message.

We are currently issuing multiple PHY resets during a suspend/resume, first during bcmgenet_power_up() which does a hardware reset, then a software reset by calling bcmgenet_mii_reset(). This is both unnecessary and can take as long as 10ms per MDIO transactions while we re-apply workarounds because we do not yet have MDIO interrupts enabled. phy_resume() takes care of re-apply our workarounds in case we need any, and bcmgenet_power_up() does a PHY hardware reset, all of this is more than enough to guarantee that the PHY operates correctly.

Joachim Eastwood says: ==================== stmmac clean up for 4.3 part1 This patch set continues the conversion of the dwmac glue layers to more proper platform drivers. The first part of the patch set cleans up stmmac_platform a bit. Refactors code from the common probe function and exports two functions that will be used in the dwmac-* drivers. Second part converts two simple dwmac-* drivers to have their own probe function and use the exported functions. This brings us closer to point where stmmac_platform is only a library of common functions for the dwmac-* drivers to use. The plan next is: * add probe functions to the rest of the dwmac-* drivers * move probe function in stmmac_platform to dwmac-generic * remove struct stmmac_of_data and let those drivers that actually need match data handle it themselves * clean up include/linux/stmmac.h Note that this patch set has only been tested on lpc18xx so testing on other platforms is greatly appreciated.

Refactor code to clearly separate probing non-dt versus dt. In the non-dt case platform data must be supplied to probe successfully. For dt the platform data structure is created and match data is copied into it. Note that support for supplying platform data in dt from AUXDATA is dropped as no users in mainline does this. This change will allow dt dwmac-* drivers to call the config_dt() function from probe to create the needed platform data struct and retrieve common dt properties. Signed-off-by:

Jon Maloy says: ==================== tipc: separate link and link aggregation layer This is the first batch of a longer series that has two main objectives: o Finer lock granularity during message sending and reception, especially regarding usage of the node spinlock. o Better separation between the link layer implementation and the link aggregation layer, represented by node.c::struct tipc_node. Hopefully these changes also make this part of code somewhat easier to comprehend and maintain. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

We convert packet/message reception according to the same principle we have been using for message sending and timeout handling: We move the function tipc_rcv() to node.c, hence handling the initial packet reception at the link aggregation level. The function grabs the node lock, selects the receiving link, and accesses it via a new call tipc_link_rcv(). This function appends buffers to the input queue for delivery upwards, but it may also append outgoing packets to the xmit queue, just as we do during regular message sending. The latter will happen when buffers are forwarded from the link backlog, or when retransmission is requested. Upon return of this function, and after having released the node lock, tipc_rcv() delivers/tranmsits the contents of those queues, but it may also perform actions such as link activation or reset, as indicated by the return flags from the link. This reduces the number of cpu cycles spent inside the node spinlock, and reduces contention on that lock. Reviewed-by:

The logics for determining when a node is permitted to establish and maintain contact with its peer node becomes non-trivial in the presence of multiple parallel links that may come and go independently. A known failure scenario is that one endpoint registers both its links to the peer lost, cleans up it binding table, and prepares for a table update once contact is re-establihed, while the other endpoint may see its links reset and re-established one by one, hence seeing no need to re-synchronize the binding table. To avoid this, a node must not allow re-establishing contact until it has confirmation that even the peer has lost both links. Currently, the mechanism for handling this consists of setting and resetting two state flags from different locations in the code. This solution is hard to understand and maintain. A closer analysis even reveals that it is not completely safe. In this commit we do instead introduce an FSM that keeps track of the conditions for when the node can establish and maintain links. It has six states and four events, and is strictly based on explicit knowledge about the own node's and the peer node's contact states. Only events leading to state change are shown as edges in the figure below. +--------------+ | SELF_UP/ | +---------------->| PEER_COMING |-----------------+ SELF_ | +--------------+ |PEER_ ESTBL_ | | |ESTBL_ CONTACT| SELF_LOST_CONTACT | |CONTACT | v | | +--------------+ | | PEER_ | SELF_DOWN/ | SELF_ | | LOST_ +--| PEER_LEAVING |<--+ LOST_ v +-------------+ CONTACT | +--------------+ | CONTACT +-----------+ | SELF_DOWN/ |<----------+ +----------| SELF_UP/ | | PEER_DOWN |<----------+ +----------| PEER_UP | +-------------+ SELF_ | +--------------+ | PEER_ +-----------+ | LOST_ +--| SELF_LEAVING/|<--+ LOST_ A | CONTACT | PEER_DOWN | CONTACT | | +--------------+ | | A | PEER_ | PEER_LOST_CONTACT | |SELF_ ESTBL_ | | |ESTBL_ CONTACT| +--------------+ |CONTACT +---------------->| PEER_UP/ |-----------------+ | SELF_COMING | +--------------+ Reviewed-by: -

In our effort to move control of the links to the link aggregation layer, we move the perodic link supervision timer to struct tipc_node. The new timer is shared between all links belonging to the node, thus saving resources, while still kicking the FSM on both its pertaining links at each expiration. The current link timer and corresponding functions are removed. Reviewed-by:

We create a second, simpler, link timer function, tipc_link_timeout(). The new function makes use of the new FSM function introduced in the previous commit, and just like it, takes a buffer queue as parameter. It returns an event bit field and potentially a link protocol packet to the caller. The existing timer function, link_timeout(), is still needed for a while, so we redesign it to become a wrapper around the new function. Reviewed-by:

The link FSM implementation is currently unnecessarily complex. It sometimes checks for conditional state outside the FSM data before deciding next state, and often performs actions directly inside the FSM logics. In this commit, we create a second, simpler FSM implementation, that as far as possible acts only on states and events that it is strictly defined for, and postpone any actions until it is finished with its decisions. It also returns an event flag field and an a buffer queue which may potentially contain a protocol message to be sent by the caller. Unfortunately, we cannot yet make the FSM "clean", in the sense that its decisions are only based on FSM state and event, and that state changes happen only here. That will have to wait until the activate/reset logics has been cleaned up in a future commit. We also rename the link states as follows: WORKING_WORKING -> TIPC_LINK_WORKING WORKING_UNKNOWN -> TIPC_LINK_PROBING RESET_UNKNOWN -> TIPC_LINK_RESETTING RESET_RESET -> TIPC_LINK_ESTABLISHING The existing FSM function, link_state_event(), is still needed for a while, so we redesign it to make use of the new function.

As a preparation for later changes, we introduce a new function tipc_link_build_proto_msg(). Instead of actually sending the created protocol message, it only creates it and adds it to the head of a skb queue provided by the caller. Since we still need the existing function tipc_link_protocol_xmit() for a while, we redesign it to make use of the new function. Reviewed-by:

The status flag LINK_STOPPED is not needed any more, since the mechanism for delayed deletion of links has been removed. Likewise, LINK_STARTED and LINK_START_EVT are unnecessary, because we can just as well start the link timer directly from inside tipc_link_create(). We eliminate these flags in this commit. Instead of the above flags, we now introduce three new link modes, TIPC_LINK_OPEN, TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED and TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL. The values indicate whether, and in the case of TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL, which, messages the link is allowed to receive in this state. TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED also blocks timer-driven protocol messages to be sent out, and any change to the link FSM. Since the modes are mutually exclusive, we convert them to state values, and rename the 'flags' field in struct tipc_link to 'exec_mode'. Finally, we move the #defines for link FSM states and events from link.h into enums inside the file link.c, which is the real usage scope of these definitions. Reviewed-by:

Currently, message sending is performed through a deep call chain, where the node spinlock is grabbed and held during a significant part of the transmission time. This is clearly detrimental to overall throughput performance; it would be better if we could send the message after the spinlock has been released. In this commit, we do instead let the call revert on the stack after the buffer chain has been added to the transmission queue, whereafter clones of the buffers are transmitted to the device layer outside the spinlock scope. As a further step in our effort to separate the roles of the node and link entities we also move the function tipc_link_xmit() to node.c, and rename it to tipc_node_xmit(). Reviewed-by:

When the function tipc_link_xmit() is given a buffer list for transmission, it currently consumes the list both when transmission is successful and when it fails, except for the special case when it encounters link congestion. This behavior is inconsistent, and needs to be corrected if we want to avoid problems in later commits in this series. In this commit, we change this to let the function consume the list only when transmission is successful, and leave the list with the sender in all other cases. We also modifiy the socket code so that it adapts to this change, i.e., purges the list when a non-congestion error code is returned. Reviewed-by:

struct tipc_node currently holds two arrays of link pointers; one, indexed by bearer identity, which contains all links irrespective of current state, and one two-slot array for the currently active link or links. The latter array contains direct pointers into the elements of the former. This has the effect that we cannot know the bearer id of a link when accessing it via the "active_links[]" array without actually dereferencing the pointer, something we want to avoid in some cases. In this commit, we do instead store the bearer identity in the "active_links" array, and use this as an index to find the right element in the overall link entry array. This change should be seen as a preparation for the later commits in this series. Reviewed-by:

At present, the link input queue and the name distributor receive queues are fields aggregated in struct tipc_link. This is a hazard, because a link might be deleted while a receiving socket still keeps reference to one of the queues. This commit fixes this bug. However, rather than adding yet another reference counter to the critical data path, we move the two queues to safe ground inside struct tipc_node, which is already protected, and let the link code only handle references to the queues. This is also in line with planned later changes in this area. Reviewed-by:

As a step towards turning links into node internal entities, we move the creation of links from the neighbor discovery logics to the node's link control logics. We also create an additional entry for the link's media address in the newly introduced struct tipc_link_entry, since this is where it is needed in the upcoming commits. The current copy in struct tipc_link is kept for now, but will be removed later. Reviewed-by:

struct 'tipc_node' currently contains two arrays for link attributes, one for the link pointers, and one for the usable link MTUs. We now group those into a new struct 'tipc_link_entry', and intoduce one single array consisting of such enties. Apart from being a cosmetic improvement, this is a starting point for the strict master-slave relation between node and link that we will introduce in the following commits. Reviewed-by:

Scott Feldman says: ==================== switchdev: avoid duplicate packet forwarding v3: - Per Nicolas Dichtel review: remove errant empty union. v2: - Per davem review: in sk_buff, union fwd_mark with secmark to save space since features appear to be mutually exclusive. - Per Simon Horman review: - fix grammar in switchdev.txt wrt fwd_mark - remove some unrelated changes that snuck in v1: This patchset was previously submitted as RFC. No changes from the last version (v2) sent under RFC. Including RFC version history here for reference. RFC v2: - s/fwd_mark/offload_fwd_mark - use consume_skb rather than kfree_skb when dropping pkt on egress. - Use Jiri's suggestion to use ifindex of one of the ports in a group as the mark for all the ports in the group. This can be done with no additional storage (no hashtable from v1). To pull it off, we need some simple recursive routines to walk the netdev tree ensuring all leaves in the tree (ports) in the same group (e.g. bridge) belonging to the same switch device will have the same offload fwd mark. Maybe someone sees a better design for the recusive routines? They're not too bad, and should cover the stacked driver cases. RFC v1: With switchdev support for offloading L2/L3 forwarding data path to a switch device, we have a general problem where both the device and the kernel may forward the packet, resulting in duplicate packets on the wire. Anytime a packet is forwarded by the device and a copy is sent to the CPU, there is potential for duplicate forwarding, as the kernel may also do a forwarding lookup and send the packet on the wire. The specific problem this patch series is interested in solving is avoiding duplicate packets on bridged ports. There was a previous RFC from Roopa (http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=142687073314252&w=2) to address this problem, but didn't solve the problem of mixed ports in the bridge from different devices; there was no way to exclude some ports from forwarding and include others. This RFC solves that problem by tagging the ingressing packet with a unique mark, and then comparing the packet mark with the egress port mark, and skip forwarding when there is a match. For the mixed ports bridge case, only those ports with matching marks are skipped. The switchdev port driver must do two things: 1) Generate a fwd_mark for each switch port, using some unique key of the switch device (and optionally port). This is done when the port netdev is registered or if the port's group membership changes (joins/leaves a bridge, for example). 2) On packet ingress from port, mark the skb with the ingress port's fwd_mark. If the device supports it, it's useful to only mark skbs which were already forwarded by the device. If the device does not support such indication, all skbs can be marked, even if they're local dst. Two new 32-bit fields are added to struct sk_buff and struct netdevice to hold the fwd_mark. I've wrapped these with CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV for now. I tried using skb->mark for this purpose, but ebtables can overwrite the skb->mark before the bridge gets it, so that will not work. In general, this fwd_mark can be used for any case where a packet is forwarded by the device and a copy is sent to the CPU, to avoid the kernel re-forwarding the packet. sFlow is another use-case that comes to mind, but I haven't explored the details. ==================== Signed-off-by:

If device flags ingress packet as "fwd offload", mark the skb->offlaod_fwd_mark using the ingress port's dev->offlaod_fwd_mark. This will be the hint to the kernel that this packet has already been forwarded by device to egress ports matching skb->offlaod_fwd_mark. For rocker, derive port dev->offlaod_fwd_mark based on device switch ID and port ifindex. If port is bridged, use the bridge ifindex rather than the port ifindex. Signed-off-by:

skb->offload_fwd_mark and dev->offload_fwd_mark are 32-bit and should be unique for device and may even be unique for a sub-set of ports within device, so add switchdev helper function to generate unique marks based on port's switch ID and group_ifindex. group_ifindex would typically be the container dev's ifindex, such as the bridge's ifindex. The generator uses a global hash table to store offload_fwd_marks hashed by {switch ID, group_ifindex} key. Signed-off-by: -

Just before queuing skb for xmit on port, check if skb has been marked by switchdev port driver as already fordwarded by device. If so, drop skb. A non-zero skb->offload_fwd_mark field is set by the switchdev port driver/device on ingress to indicate the skb has already been forwarded by the device to egress ports with matching dev->skb_mark. The switchdev port driver would assign a non-zero dev->offload_skb_mark for each device port netdev during registration, for example. Signed-off-by:
