Since there can be multiple switch ASICs on the same system we should use the switch ID in order to differentiate between them and set the switch name (e.g. swX) accordingly. Also, replace the order of the "Switch ID" and "Port Netdev Naming" sections following the above change.

Resources allocated for these bridges at init time cannot be later used for other purposes. While current number is supported by the device, it's mostly theoretical with regards to any real use case, which leads to poor utilization of device's resources. Solve that by reducing the number. The long term plan is to make this value (along with others) user configurable via devlink and write it to NVRAM, so that it can be used during the next init. Until then we must hardcode such values.

Eric Dumazet says: ==================== net: various udp/tcp changes First round of patches for linux-4.7 Add a generic facility for sockets to be freed after an RCU grace period, if they need to. Then UDP stack is changed to no longer use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU, in order to speedup rx processing for traffic encapsulated in UDP. It gives a 17 % speedup for normal UDP reception in stress conditions. Then TCP listeners are changed to use SOCK_RCU_FREE as well to avoid touching sk_refcnt in synflood case : I got up to 30 % performance increase for a mono listener. Then three patches add SK_MEMINFO_DROPS to sock_diag and add per socket rx drops accounting to TCP. Last patch adds rate limiting on ACK sent on behalf of SYN_RECV to better resist to SYNFLOOD targeting one or few flows. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Attackers like to use SYNFLOOD targeting one 5-tuple, as they hit a single RX queue (and cpu) on the victim. If they use random sequence numbers in their SYN, we detect they do not match the expected window and send back an ACK. This patch adds a rate limitation, so that the effect of such attacks is limited to ingress only. We roughly double our ability to absorb such attacks.

TCP uses per cpu 'sockets' to send some packets : - RST packets ( tcp_v4_send_reset()) ) - ACK packets for SYN_RECV and TIMEWAIT sockets By setting SOCK_USE_WRITE_QUEUE flag, we tell sock_wfree() to not call sk_write_space() since these internal sockets do not care. This gives a small performance improvement, merely by allowing cpu to properly predict the sock_wfree() conditional branch, and avoiding one atomic operation.

Goal: packets dropped by a listener are accounted for. This adds tcp_listendrop() helper, and clears sk_drops in sk_clone_lock() so that children do not inherit their parent drop count. Note that we no longer increment LINUX_MIB_LISTENDROPS counter when sending a SYNCOOKIE, since the SYN packet generated a SYNACK. We already have a separate LINUX_MIB_SYNCOOKIESSENT Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

When a SYNFLOOD targets a non SO_REUSEPORT listener, multiple cpus contend on sk->sk_refcnt and sk->sk_wmem_alloc changes. By letting listeners use SOCK_RCU_FREE infrastructure, we can relax TCP_LISTEN lookup rules and avoid touching sk_refcnt Note that we still use SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU rules for other sockets, only listeners are impacted by this change. Peak performance under SYNFLOOD is increased by ~33% : On my test machine, I could process 3.2 Mpps instead of 2.4 Mpps Most consuming functions are now skb_set_owner_w() and sock_wfree() contending on sk->sk_wmem_alloc when cooking SYNACK and freeing them.

RX packet processing holds rcu_read_lock(), so we can remove pairs of rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() in lookup functions if inet_diag also holds rcu before calling them. This is needed anyway as __inet_lookup_listener() and inet6_lookup_listener() will soon no longer increment refcount on the found listener.

Tom Herbert would like not touching UDP socket refcnt for encapsulated traffic. For this to happen, we need to use normal RCU rules, with a grace period before freeing a socket. UDP sockets are not short lived in the high usage case, so the added cost of call_rcu() should not be a concern. This actually removes a lot of complexity in UDP stack. Multicast receives no longer need to hold a bucket spinlock. Note that ip early demux still needs to take a reference on the socket. Same remark for functions used by xt_socket and xt_PROXY netfilter modules, but this might be changed later. Performance for a single UDP socket receiving flood traffic from many RX queues/cpus. Simple udp_rx using simple recvfrom() loop : 438 kpps instead of 374 kpps : 17 % increase of the peak rate. v2: Addressed Willem de Bruijn feedback in multicast handling - keep early demux break in __udp4_lib_demux_lookup() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Cc: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Tested-by: Tom Herbert <tom@herbertland.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

We want a generic way to insert an RCU grace period before socket freeing for cases where RCU_SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is adding too much overhead. SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU strict rules force us to take a reference on the socket sk_refcnt, and it is a performance problem for UDP encapsulation, or TCP synflood behavior, as many CPUs might attempt the atomic operations on a shared sk_refcnt UDP sockets and TCP listeners can set SOCK_RCU_FREE so that their lookup can use traditional RCU rules, without refcount changes. They can set the flag only once hashed and visible by other cpus.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-04-04 This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf. Pavel Tikhomirov fixes a typo where we were incrementing transmit stats instead of receive stats on the receive side. Emil updates the ixgbevf driver to use bit operations for setting and checking the adapter state. Chas Williams adds the new NDO trust feature check so that the VF guest has the ability to set the unicast address of the interface, if it is a trusted VF. Alex cleans up the driver to that the only time we add a PF entry to the VLVF is either for VLAN 0 or if the PF has requested a VLAN that a VF is already using. Also adds support for generic transmit checksums, giving the added advantage is that we can support inner checksum offloads for tunnels and MPLS while still being able to transparently insert VLAN tags. Lastly, changed ixgbe so that we can use the ethtool rx-vlan-filter flag to toggle receive VLAN filtering on and off. Mark cleans up the ixgbe driver by making all op structures that do not change constants. Also fixed flow control for Xeon D KR backplanes, since we cannot use auto-negotiation to determine the mode, we have to use whatever the user configured. Sowmini Varadhan updates ixgbe to use eth_platform_get_mac_address() instead of the arch specific solution that was added by a previous commit. Don fixed an issue where it was possible that a system reset could occur when we were holding the SWFW semaphore lock, which the next time the driver loaded would see it incorrectly as locked. v2: updated patch 8 of the series to include a minor flags issue where we had lost NETIF_F_HW_TC and we were setting NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC in two different areas, when we only needed/wanted it in one spot. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: mv88e6131: HW bridging support for 6185 All packets passing through a switch of the 6185 family are currently all directed to the CPU port. This means that port bridging is software driven. To enable hardware bridging for this switch family, we need to implement the port mapping operations, the FDB operations, and optionally the VLAN operations (for 802.1Q and VLAN filtering aware systems). However this family only has 256 FDBs indexed by 8-bit identifiers, opposed to 4096 FDBs with 12-bit identifiers for other families such as 6352. It also doesn't have dedicated FID registers for ATU and VTU operations. This patchset fixes these differences, and enable hardware bridging for 6185. Changes v1 -> v2: - Describe the different numbers of databases and prefer a feature-based logic over the current ID/family-based logic. ==================== Tested-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

By adding support for bridge operations, FDB operations, and optionally VLAN operations (for 802.1Q and VLAN filtering aware systems), the switch bridges ports correctly, the CPU is able to populate the hardware address databases, and thus hardware bridging becomes functional within the 88E6185 family of switches.

The 88E6185 switch also has a MapDA bit in its Port Control 2 register. When this bit is cleared, all frames are sent out to the CPU port. Set this bit to rely on address databases (ATU) hits and direct frames out of the correct ports, and thus allow hardware bridging.

It is possible on some HW that a system reset could occur when we are holding the SWFW semaphore lock. So next time the driver was loaded we would see it incorrectly as locked. This patch will recover from that state by: Attempting to acquire the semaphore and then regardless of whether or not it was acquire we immediately release it. This will force us into a known good state.

This commit adds a callback which allows to adjust the maximum transmit bitrate the card can output. This makes it possible to get a smooth traffic instead of the default burst-y behaviour when trying to output e.g. a video stream. Much of the logic needed to get a correct bcnrc_val was taken from the ixgbe_set_vf_rate_limit() function.

This patch adds support for generic Tx checksums to the ixgbevf driver. It turns out this is actually pretty easy after going over the datasheet as we were doing a number of steps we didn't need to. In order to perform a Tx checksum for an L4 header we need to fill in the following fields in the Tx descriptor: MACLEN (maximum of 127), retrieved from: skb_network_offset() IPLEN (maximum of 511), retrieved from: skb_checksum_start_offset() - skb_network_offset() TUCMD.L4T indicates offset and if checksum or crc32c, based on: skb->csum_offset The added advantage to doing this is that we can support inner checksum offloads for tunnels and MPLS while still being able to transparently insert VLAN tags. I also took the opportunity to clean-up many of the feature flag configuration bits to make them a bit more consistent between drivers. In the case of the VF drivers this meant adding support for SCTP CRCs, and inner checksum offloads for MPLS and various tunnel types.
