      sfc: Fix DMA unmapping issue with firmware assisted TSO · 2acdb92e
      Alexandre Rames authored 
      When using firmware assisted TSO, we use a single DMA mapping for
the linear area of a TSO skb.

We still have to segment the super-packet and insert a descriptor
containing the original headers before each segment of payload, so we
can unmap the linear area only after the last segment is completed.
The unmapping information for the linear area is therefore associated
with the last header descriptor.

We calculate the DMA address to unmap from using the map length and
the invariant that the end of the DMA mapping matches the end of
the data referenced by the last descriptor.  But this invariant is
broken when there is TCP payload in the linear area.

Fix this by adding and using an explicit dma_offset field.

      Jeff Kirsher says:

====================
This series contains updates to vxlan, net, ixgbe, ixgbevf, and i40e.

Joseph provides a single patch against vxlan which removes the burden
from the NIC drivers to check if the vxlan driver is enabled in the
kernel and also makes available the vxlan headrooms to the drivers.

Jacob provides majority of the patches, with patches against net, ixgbe
and ixgbevf.  His net patch adds might_sleep() call to napi_disable so
that every use of napi_disable during atomic context will be visible.
Then Jacob provides a patch to fix qv_lock_napi call in
ixgbe_napi_disable_all.  The other ixgbe patches cleanup
ixgbe_check_minimum_link function to correctly show that there are some
minor loss of encoding, even though we don't calculate it and remove
unnecessary duplication of PCIe bandwidth display.  Lastly, Jacob
provides 4 patches against ixgbevf to add ixgbevf_rx_skb in line with
how ixgbe handles the variations on how packets can be received, adds
support in order to track how many packets were cleaned during busy poll
as part of the extended statistics.

Wei Yongjun provides a fix for i40e to return -ENOMEN in the memory
allocation error handling case instead of returning 0, as done
elsewhere in this function.

      net: mvmdio: orion_mdio_ready: remove manual poll · 839f46bb
      Leigh Brown authored 
      Replace manual poll of MVMDIO_SMI_READ_VALID with a call to
orion_mdio_wait_ready.  This ensures a consistent timeout,
eliminates a busy loop, and allows for use of interrupts on
systems that support them.

      net: mvmdio: make orion_mdio_wait_ready consistent · b70cd1c1
      Leigh Brown authored 
      Amend orion_mdio_wait_ready so that the same timeout is used when
polling or using wait_event_timeout.  Set the timeout to 1ms.

Replace udelay with usleep_range to avoid a busy loop, and set the
polling interval range as 45us to 55us, so that the first sleep
will be enough in almost all cases.

Generate the same log message at timeout when polling or using
wait_event_timeout.

      net: sched: cls_bpf: add BPF-based classifier · 7d1d65cb
      Daniel Borkmann authored 
      This work contains a lightweight BPF-based traffic classifier that can
serve as a flexible alternative to ematch-based tree classification, i.e.
now that BPF filter engine can also be JITed in the kernel. Naturally, tc
actions and policies are supported as well with cls_bpf. Multiple BPF
programs/filter can be attached for a class, or they can just as well be
written within a single BPF program, that's really up to the user how he
wishes to run/optimize the code, e.g. also for inversion of verdicts etc.
The notion of a BPF program's return/exit codes is being kept as follows:

     0: No match
    -1: Select classid given in "tc filter ..." command
  else: flowid, overwrite the default one

As a minimal usage example with iproute2, we use a 3 band prio root qdisc
on a router with sfq each as leave, and assign ssh and icmp bpf-based
filters to band 1, http traffic to band 2 and the rest to band 3. For the
first two bands we load the bytecode from a file, in the 2nd we load it
inline as an example:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/core/bpf_jit_enable

tc qdisc del dev em1 root
tc qdisc add dev em1 root handle 1: prio bands 3 priomap 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:1 sfq perturb 16
tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:2 sfq perturb 16
tc qdisc add dev em1 parent 1:3 sfq perturb 16

tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/ssh.bpf flowid 1:1
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/icmp.bpf flowid 1:1
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode-file /etc/tc/http.bpf flowid 1:2
tc filter add dev em1 parent 1: bpf run bytecode "`bpfc -f tc -i misc.ops`" flowid 1:3

BPF programs can be easily created and passed to tc, either as inline
'bytecode' or 'bytecode-file'. There are a couple of front-ends that can
compile opcodes, for example:

1) People familiar with tcpdump-like filters:

   tcpdump -iem1 -ddd port 22 | tr '\n' ',' > /etc/tc/ssh.bpf

2) People that want to low-level program their filters or use BPF
   extensions that lack support by libpcap's compiler:

   bpfc -f tc -i ssh.ops > /etc/tc/ssh.bpf

   ssh.ops example code:
   ldh [12]
   jne #0x800, drop
   ldb [23]
   jneq #6, drop
   ldh [20]
   jset #0x1fff, drop
   ldxb 4 * ([14] & 0xf)
   ldh [%x + 14]
   jeq #0x16, pass
   ldh [%x + 16]
   jne #0x16, drop
   pass: ret #-1
   drop: ret #0

It was chosen to load bytecode into tc, since the reverse operation,
tc filter list dev em1, is then able to show the exact commands again.
Possible follow-up work could also include a small expression compiler
for iproute2. Tested with the help of bmon. This idea came up during
the Netfilter Workshop 2013 in Copenhagen. Also thanks to feedback from
Eric Dumazet!
