The script generates two random files that are then sent via tcp and mptcp connections. In order to compare throughput over consecutive runs add an option to provide the file size on the command line: "-f 128000". Also add an option, -t, to enable tcp tests. This is useful to compare throughput of mptcp connections and tcp connections. Example: run tests with a 4mb file size, 300ms delay 0.01% loss, default gso/tso/gro settings and with large write/blocking io: mptcp_connect.sh -t -f $((4 * 1024 * 1024)) -d 300 -l 0.01% -r 0 -e "" -m mmap Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Reviewed-by: Matthieu Baerts <matthieu.baerts@tessares.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

Similar to fq_codel and the other qdiscs that can set as default, fq_pie is also suitable for general use without explicit configuration, which makes it a valid choice for this. This is useful in situations where a painless out-of-the-box solution for reducing bufferbloat is desired but fq_codel is not necessarily the best choice. For example, fq_pie can be better for DASH streaming, but there could be more cases where it's the better choice of the two simple AQMs available in the kernel.

Tony Nguyen says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2020-07-01 This series contains updates to all Intel drivers, but a majority of the changes are to the i40e driver. Jeff converts 'fall through' comments to the 'fallthrough;' keyword for all Intel drivers. Removed unnecessary delay in the ixgbe ethtool diagnostics test. Arkadiusz implements Total Port Shutdown for i40e. This is the revised patch based on Jakub's feedback from an earlier submission of this patch, where additional code comments and description was needed to describe the functionality. Wei Yongjun fixes return error code for iavf_init_get_resources(). Magnus optimizes XDP code in i40e; starting with AF_XDP zero-copy transmit completion path. Then by only executing a division when necessary in the napi_poll data path. Move the check for transmit ring full outside the send loop to increase performance. Ciara add XDP ring statistics to i40e and the ability to dump these statistics and descriptors. Tony fixes reporting iavf statistics. Radoslaw adds support for 2.5 and 5 Gbps by implementing the newer ethtool ksettings API in ixgbe. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

There are a number of structures that consist of a one-element array as the only struct member. Some of those are unused so remove them. Others are used to index into a buffer/array consisting of a variable number of a different data or structure type. Those are unnecessary since we can use simple pointer arithmetic or index directly into the buffer to access individual elements of the buffer/array. Additional code cleanups were done near areas affected by this change.

At the moment, bonding xfrm crypto offload can only be set up if the bonding module is loaded with active-backup mode already set. We need to be able to make this work with bonds set to AB after the bonding driver has already been loaded. So what's done here is: 1) move #define BOND_XFRM_FEATURES to net/bonding.h so it can be used by both bond_main.c and bond_options.c 2) set BOND_XFRM_FEATURES in bond_dev->hw_features universally, rather than only when loading in AB mode 3) wire up xfrmdev_ops universally too 4) disable BOND_XFRM_FEATURES in bond_dev->features if not AB 5) exit early (non-AB case) from bond_ipsec_offload_ok, to prevent a performance hit from traversing into the underlying drivers 5) toggle BOND_XFRM_FEATURES in bond_dev->wanted_features and call netdev_change_features() from bond_option_mode_set() In my local testing, I can change bonding modes back and forth on the fly, have hardware offload work when I'm in AB, and see no performance penalty to non-AB software encryption, despite having xfrm bits all wired up for all modes now.

Alex Elder says: ==================== net: ipa: endpoint configuration updates This series updates code that configures IPA endpoints. The changes made mainly affect access to registers that are valid only for RX, or only for TX endpoints. The first three patches avoid writing endpoint registers if they are not defined to be valid. The fourth patch slightly modifies the parameters for the offset macros used for these endpoint registers, to make it explicit when only some endpoints are valid. The last patch just tweaks one line of code so it uses a convention used everywhere else in the driver. Version 2 of this series eliminates some of the "assert()" comments that Jakub inquired about. The ones removed will actually go away in an upcoming (not-yet-posted) patch series anyway. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The convention throughout the IPA driver is to directly use single-bit field mask values, rather than using (for example) u32_encode_bits() to set or clear them.

There is a 4 seconds delay in ixgbe_diag_test() that is holding up other ioctls such as SIOCGIFCONF that Oracle database applications use. One of Oracle's product runs "ethtool -t ethX online" periodically for system monitoring and that is impacting database applications that use SIOCGIFCONF at that same time. This 4 second delay was needed in out early 1GbE parts to give the PHY time to recover from a reset. This code was carried forward to the 10 GbE driver even it was not needed for the supported PHYs in the ixgbe driver.

Commit bac84861 ("iavf: Refactor the watchdog state machine") inverted the logic for when to update statistics. Statistics should be updated when no other commands are pending, instead they were only requested when a command was processed. iavf_request_stats() would see a pending request and not request statistics to be updated.

Improve the performance of the AF_XDP zero-copy Tx completion path. When there are no XDP buffers being sent using XDP_TX or XDP_REDIRECT, we do not have go through the SW ring to clean up any entries since the AF_XDP path does not use these. In these cases, just fast forward the next-to-use counter and skip going through the SW ring. The limit on the maximum number of entries to complete is also removed since the algorithm is now O(1). To simplify the code path, the maximum number of entries to complete for the XDP path is therefore also increased from 256 to 512 (the default number of Tx HW descriptors). This should be fine since the completion in the XDP path is faster than in the SKB path that has 256 as the maximum number. This patch provides around 4% throughput improvement for the l2fwd application in xdpsock on my machine.

After OS requests to down a link on a physical network port, the traffic is no longer being processed but the physical link with a link partner is still established. Currently there is a feature (Link down on close) which allows to physically bring the link down (after OS request). With this patch new feature with similar capability is introduced: TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN Allows to physically disable the link on the NIC's port. If enabled, (after link down request from the OS) no link, traffic or led activity is possible on that port. If I40E_FLAG_TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN is enabled, the I40E_FLAG_LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED must be explicitly forced to true and cannot be disabled at that time. The functionalities are exclusive in terms of configuration, but they also have similar behavior (allowing to disable physical link of the port), with following differences: - LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED is configurable at host OS run-time and is supported by whole family of 7xx Intel Ethernet Controllers - TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN may be enabled only before OS loads (in BIOS) only if motherboard's BIOS and NIC's FW has support of it - when LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED is used, the link is being brought down by sending phy_type=0 to NIC's FW - when TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN is used, phy_type is not altered, instead the link is being brought down by clearing bit (I40E_AQ_PHY_ENABLE_LINK) in abilities field of i40e_aq_set_phy_config structure Introduced changes: - new private flag I40E_FLAG_TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN for handling the feature - probe of NVM if the feature was enabled at driver's port initialization - special handling on link-down procedure to let FW physically shutdown the port if the feature was enabled Signed-off-by: Arkadiusz Kubalewski <arkadiusz.kubalewski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Aleksandr Loktionov <aleksandr.loktionov@intel.com> Tested-by: Andrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com>

With legacy PM, drivers themselves were responsible for managing the device's power states and takes care of register states. After upgrading to the generic structure, PCI core will take care of required tasks and drivers should do only device-specific operations. Thus, there is no need to call the PCI helper functions like pci_enable_device, which is not recommended. Hence, removed. Compile-tested only.
