This patch enables the PPS system in the PHC framework, by enabling the clock-out feature on the X540 device. Causes the SDP0 to be set as a 1Hz clock. Also configures the timesync interrupt cause in order to report each pulse to the PPS via the PHC framework, which can be used for general system clock synchronization. (This allows a stable method for tuning the general system time via the on-board SYSTIM register based clock.) Signed-off-by:

This patch enables hardware timestamping for use with PTP software by extracting a ns counter from an arbitrary fixed point cycles counter. The hardware generates SYSTIME registers using the DMA tick which changes based on the current link speed. These SYSTIME registers are converted to ns using the cyclecounter and timecounter structures provided by the kernel. Using the SO_TIMESTAMPING api, software can enable and access timestamps for PTP packets. The SO_TIMESTAMPING API has space for 3 different kinds of timestamps, SYS, RAW, and SOF. SYS hardware timestamps are hardware ns values that are then scaled to the software clock. RAW hardware timestamps are the direct raw value of the ns counter. SOF software timestamps are the software timestamp calculated as close as possible to the software transmit, but are not offloaded to the hardware. This patch only supports the RAW hardware timestamps due to inefficiency of the SYS design. This patch also enables the PHC subsystem features for atomically adjusting the cycle register, and adjusting the clock frequency in parts per billion. This frequency adjustment works by slightly adjusting the value added to the cycle registers each DMA tick. This causes the hardware registers to overflow rapidly (approximately once every 34 seconds, when at 10gig link). To solve this, the timecounter structure is used, along with a timer set for every 25 seconds. This allows for detecting register overflow and converting the cycle counter registers into ns values needed for providing useful timestamps to the network stack. Only the basic required clock functions are supported at this time, although the hardware supports some ancillary features and these could easily be enabled in the future. Note that use of this hardware timestamping requires modifying daemon software to use the SO_TIMESTAMPING API for timestamps, and the ptp_clock PHC framework for accessing the clock. The timestamps have no relation to the system time at all, so software must use the posix clock generated by the PHC framework instead. Signed-off-by:

The drop enable bit can be used to improve the performance of the adapter in the case of multiple queues being present. This performance gain is due to the fact that some slower CPUs can cause the FIFO to backfill preventing faster CPUs from receiving additional work. By setting the drop enable bit we prevent this and instead just drop the packets that would have been bound for the slower CPU. Signed-off-by:

This change cleans up the logic in the priority based flow control configuration routines. Both the 82599 and 82598 based routines perform similar functions however they are both arranged completely differently. This patch goes over both of them to clean up the code. In addition I am dropping the ixgbe_fc_pfc flow control mode and instead just replacing it with checks for if priority flow control is enabled. This allows us to maintain some of the link flow control information which allows for an easier transition between link and priority flow control. Signed-off-by:

Previously we would get a mailbox error and still process the message. Instead we should exit on error. In addition we should also be flushing the ACK of the message so that we can guarantee that the other end is aware we have received the message while we are processing it. Signed-off-by:

Current igb outputs registers related to TX/RX queues(ex. RDT, RDH, TDT, TDH). But it thinks the number of RX/TX queues is 4. But 82576 has 16 RX/TX queues. This patch modifies igb to output the rest of the registers if the device is 82576. Signed-off-by:

The target allows you to create rules in the "raw" and "mangle" tables which set the skbuff mark by means of hash calculation within a given range. The nfmark can influence the routing method (see "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key") and can also be used by other subsystems to change their behaviour.

This patch adds the flags parameter to ipv6_find_hdr. This flags allows us to: * know if this is a fragment. * stop at the AH header, so the information contained in that header can be used for some specific packet handling. This patch also adds the offset parameter for inspection of one inner IPv6 header that is contained in error messages. Signed-off-by:

This patch removes ip_queue support which was marked as obsolete years ago. The nfnetlink_queue modules provides more advanced user-space packet queueing mechanism. This patch also removes capability code included in SELinux that refers to ip_queue. Otherwise, we break compilation. Several warning has been sent regarding this to the mailing list in the past month without anyone rising the hand to stop this with some strong argument. Signed-off-by: -

Explicit helper attachment via the CT target is broken with NAT if non-standard ports are used. This problem was hidden behind the automatic helper assignment routine. Thus, it becomes more noticeable now that we can disable the automatic helper assignment with Eric Leblond's: 9e8ac5a netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment Basically, nf_conntrack_alter_reply asks for looking up the helper up if NAT is enabled. Unfortunately, we don't have the conntrack template at that point anymore. Since we don't want to rely on the automatic helper assignment, we can skip the second look-up and stick to the helper that was attached by iptables. With the CT target, the user is in full control of helper attachment, thus, the policy is to trust what the user explicitly configures via iptables (no automatic magic anymore). Interestingly, this bug was hidden by the automatic helper look-up code. But it can be easily trigger if you attach the helper in a non-standard port, eg. iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 8888 \ -j CT --helper ftp And you disabled the automatic helper assignment. I added the IPS_HELPER_BIT that allows us to differenciate between a helper that has been explicitly attached and those that have been automatically assigned. I didn't come up with a better solution (having backward compatibility in mind). Signed-off-by: -

This refreshes the "timeout" attribute in existing expectations if one is given. The use case for this would be for userspace helpers to extend the lifetime of the expectation when requested, as this is not possible right now without deleting/recreating the expectation. I use this specifically for forwarding DCERPC traffic through: DCERPC has a port mapper daemon that chooses a (seemingly) random port for future traffic to go to. We expect this traffic (with a reasonable timeout), but sometimes the port mapper will tell the client to continue using the same port. This allows us to extend the expectation accordingly.

Allow master and backup servers to use many threads for sync traffic. Add sysctl var "sync_ports" to define the number of threads. Every thread will use single UDP port, thread 0 will use the default port 8848 while last thread will use port 8848+sync_ports-1. The sync traffic for connections is scheduled to many master threads based on the cp address but one connection is always assigned to same thread to avoid reordering of the sync messages. Remove ip_vs_sync_switch_mode because this check for sync mode change is still risky. Instead, check for mode change under sync_buff_lock. Make sure the backup socks do not block on reading.

Add two new sysctl vars to control the sync rate with the main idea to reduce the rate for connection templates because currently it depends on the packet rate for controlled connections. This mechanism should be useful also for normal connections with high traffic. sync_refresh_period: in seconds, difference in reported connection timer that triggers new sync message. It can be used to avoid sync messages for the specified period (or half of the connection timeout if it is lower) if connection state is not changed from last sync. sync_retries: integer, 0..3, defines sync retries with period of sync_refresh_period/8. Useful to protect against loss of sync messages. Allow sysctl_sync_threshold to be used with sysctl_sync_period=0, so that only single sync message is sent if sync_refresh_period is also 0. Add new field "sync_endtime" in connection structure to hold the reported time when connection expires. The 2 lowest bits will represent the retry count. As the sysctl_sync_period now can be 0 use ACCESS_ONCE to avoid division by zero. Special thanks to Aleksey Chudov for being patient with me, for his extensive reports and helping in all tests.

High rate of sync messages in master can lead to overflowing the socket buffer and dropping the messages. Fixed sleep of 1 second without wakeup events is not suitable for loaded masters, Use delayed_work to schedule sending for queued messages and limit the delay to IPVS_SYNC_SEND_DELAY (20ms). This will reduce the rate of wakeups but to avoid sending long bursts we wakeup the master thread after IPVS_SYNC_WAKEUP_RATE (8) messages. Add hard limit for the queued messages before sending by using "sync_qlen_max" sysctl var. It defaults to 1/32 of the memory pages but actually represents number of messages. It will protect us from allocating large parts of memory when the sending rate is lower than the queuing rate. As suggested by Pablo, add new sysctl var "sync_sock_size" to configure the SNDBUF (master) or RCVBUF (slave) socket limit. Default value is 0 (preserve system defaults). Change the master thread to detect and block on SNDBUF overflow, so that we do not drop messages when the socket limit is low but the sync_qlen_max limit is not reached. On ENOBUFS or other errors just drop the messages. Change master thread to enter TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE state early, so that we do not miss wakeups due to messages or kthread_should_stop event.
