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.

Marvell switch chips have different number of address databases. The code currently only supports models with 4096 databases. Such switch has dedicated FID registers for ATU and VTU operations. Models with fewer databases have their FID split in several registers. List them all but only support models with 4096 databases at the moment.

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.

This patch supports the following interrupts. - One interrupt for multiple (timestamp, error, gPTP) - One interrupt for emac - Four interrupts for dma queue (best effort rx/tx, network control rx/tx) This patch improve efficiency of the interrupt handler by adding the interrupt handler corresponding to each interrupt source described above. Additionally, it reduces the number of times of the access to EthernetAVB IF. Also this patch prevent this driver depends on the whim of a boot loader.

Soheil Hassas Yeganeh says: ==================== add TX timestamping via cmsg This patch series aim at enabling TX timestamping via cmsg. Currently, to occasionally sample TX timestamping on a socket, applications need to call setsockopt twice: first for enabling timestamps and then for disabling them. This is an unnecessary overhead. With cmsg, in contrast, applications can sample TX timestamps per sendmsg(). This patch series adds the code for processing SO_TIMESTAMPING for cmsg's of the SOL_SOCKET level, and adds the glue code for TCP, UDP, and RAW for both IPv4 and IPv6. This implementation supports overriding timestamp generation flags (i.e., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_*) but not timestamp reporting flags. Applications must still enable timestamp reporting via setsockopt to receive timestamps. This series does not change existing timestamping behavior for applications that are using socket options. I will follow up with another patch to enable timestamping for active TFO (client-side TCP Fast Open) and also setting packet mark via cmsgs. Thanks! Changes in v2: - Replace u32 with __u32 in the documentation. Changes in v3: - Fix the broken build for L2TP (due to changes in IPv6). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently, SOL_TIMESTAMPING can only be enabled using setsockopt. This is very costly when users want to sample writes to gather tx timestamps. Add support for enabling SO_TIMESTAMPING via control messages by using tsflags added in `struct sockcm_cookie` (added in the previous patches in this series) to set the tx_flags of the last skb created in a sendmsg. With this patch, the timestamp recording bits in tx_flags of the skbuff is overridden if SO_TIMESTAMPING is passed in a cmsg. Please note that this is only effective for overriding the recording timestamps flags. Users should enable timestamp reporting (e.g., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_SOFTWARE | SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) using socket options and then should ask for SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_* using control messages per sendmsg to sample timestamps for each write.

Process socket-level control messages by invoking __sock_cmsg_send in ip6_datagram_send_ctl for control messages on the SOL_SOCKET layer. This makes sure whenever ip6_datagram_send_ctl is called for udp and raw, we also process socket-level control messages. This is a bit uglier than IPv4, since IPv6 does not have something like ipcm_cookie. Perhaps we can later create a control message cookie for IPv6? Note that this commit interprets new control messages that were ignored before. As such, this commit does not change the behavior of IPv6 control messages.

Accept SO_TIMESTAMPING in control messages of the SOL_SOCKET level as a basis to accept timestamping requests per write. This implementation only accepts TX recording flags (i.e., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_HARDWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SOFTWARE, SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_SCHED, and SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK) in control messages. Users need to set reporting flags (e.g., SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID) per socket via socket options. This commit adds a tsflags field in sockcm_cookie which is set in __sock_cmsg_send. It only override the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_* bits in sockcm_cookie.tsflags allowing the control message to override the recording behavior per write, yet maintaining the value of other flags. This patch implements validating the control message and setting tsflags in struct sockcm_cookie. Next commits in this series will actually implement timestamping per write for different protocols.

Currently, to avoid a cache line miss for accessing skb_shinfo, tcp_ack_tstamp skips socket that do not have SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK bit set in sk_tsflags. This is implemented based on an implicit assumption that the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_TX_ACK is set via socket options for the duration that ACK timestamps are needed. To implement per-write timestamps, this check should be removed and replaced with a per-packet alternative that quickly skips packets missing ACK timestamps marks without a cache-line miss. To enable per-packet marking without a cache line miss, use one bit in TCP_SKB_CB to mark a whether a SKB might need a ack tx timestamp or not. Further checks in tcp_ack_tstamp are not modified and work as before.

SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID is set to get data-independent IDs to associate timestamps with send calls. For TCP connections, tp->snd_una is used as the starting point to calculate relative IDs. This socket option will fail if set before the handshake on a passive TCP fast open connection with data in SYN or SYN/ACK, since setsockopt requires the connection to be in the ESTABLISHED state. To address these, instead of limiting the option to the ESTABLISHED state, accept the SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_ID option as long as the connection is not in LISTEN or CLOSE states.

Alexandre TORGUE says: ==================== Enhance stmmac driver to support GMAC4.x IP This is a subset of patch to enhance current stmmac driver to support new GMAC4.x chips. New set of callbacks is defined to support this new family: descriptors, dma, core. One of main changes of GMAC 4.xx IP is descriptors management. -descriptors are only used in ring mode. -A descriptor is composed of 4 32bits registers (no more extended descriptors) -descriptor mechanism (Tx for example, but it is exactly the same for RX): -useful registers: -DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Ring_Len: length of transmit descriptor ring -DMA_CH#_TxDesc_List_Address: start address of the ring -DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Tail_Pointer: address of the last descriptor to send + 1. -DMA_CH#_TxDesc_Current_App_TxDesc: address of the current descriptor -The descriptor Tail Pointer register contains the pointer to the descriptor address (N). The base address and the current descriptor decide the address of the current descriptor that the DMA can process. The descriptors up to one location less than the one indicated by the descriptor tail pointer (N-1) are owned by the DMA. The DMA continues to process the descriptors until the following condition occurs: "current descriptor pointer == Descriptor Tail pointer" Then the DMA goes into suspend mode. The application must perform a write to descriptor tail pointer register and update the tail pointer to have the following condition and to start a new transfer: "current descriptor pointer < Descriptor tail pointer" The DMA automatically wraps around the base address when the end of ring is reached. New features are available on IP: -TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) for TX only -Split header: to have header and payload in 2 different buffers (not yet implemented) Below some throughput figures obtained on some boxes: iperf (mbps) -------------------------------------- tcp udp tx rx tx rx ----------------- GMAC4.x 935 930 750 800 Note: There is a change in 4.10a databook on bitfield mapping of DMA_CHANx_INTR_ENA register. This requires to have é diffrent set of callbacks between IP 4.00a and 4.10a. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
