Currently different_speeds_get() is used only by ethtool.sh tests. The function can be useful for another tests that check ethtool configurations. Move the function to ethtool_lib in order to allow other tests to use it.

Currently, drivers can only tell whether the link is up/down using LINKSTATE_GET, but no additional information is given. Add attributes to LINKSTATE_GET command in order to allow drivers to expose the user more information in addition to link state to ease the debug process, for example, reason for link down state. Extended state consists of two attributes - link_ext_state and link_ext_substate. The idea is to avoid 'vendor specific' states in order to prevent drivers to use specific link_ext_state that can be in the future common link_ext_state. The substates allows drivers to add more information to the common link_ext_state. For example, vendor can expose 'Autoneg' as link_ext_state and add 'No partner detected during force mode' as link_ext_substate. If a driver cannot pinpoint the extended state with the substate accuracy, it is free to expose only the extended state and omit the substate attribute.

Davide Caratti says: ==================== MPTCP: improve fallback to TCP there are situations where MPTCP sockets should fall-back to regular TCP: this series reworks the fallback code to pursue the following goals: 1) cleanup the non fallback code, removing most of 'if (<fallback>)' in the data path 2) improve performance for non-fallback sockets, avoiding locks in poll() further work will also leverage on this changes to achieve: a) more consistent behavior of gestockopt()/setsockopt() on passive sockets after fallback b) support for "infinite maps" as per RFC8684, section 3.7 the series is made of the following items: - patch 1 lets sendmsg() / recvmsg() / poll() use the main socket also after fallback - patch 2 fixes 'simultaneous connect' scenario after fallback. The problem was present also before the rework, but the fix is much easier to implement after patch 1 - patch 3, 4, 5 are clean-ups for code that is no more needed after the fallback rework - patch 6 fixes a race condition between close() and poll(). The problem was theoretically present before the rework, but it became almost systematic after patch 1 ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-tls-2020-06-26 1) Improve hardware layouts and structure for kTLS support 2) Generalize ICOSQ (Internal Channel Operations Send Queue) Due to the asynchronous nature of adding new kTLS flows and handling HW asynchronous kTLS resync requests, the XSK ICOSQ was extended to support generic async operations, such as kTLS add flow and resync, in addition to the existing XSK usages. 3) kTLS hardware flow steering and classification: The driver already has the means to classify TCP ipv4/6 flows to send them to the corresponding RSS HW engine, as reflected in patches 3 through 5, the series will add a steering layer that will hook to the driver's TCP classifiers and will match on well known kTLS connection, in case of a match traffic will be redirected to the kTLS decryption engine, otherwise traffic will continue flowing normally to the TCP RSS engine. 3) kTLS add flow RX HW offload support New offload contexts post their static/progress params WQEs (Work Queue Element) to communicate the newly added kTLS contexts over the per-channel async ICOSQ. The Channel/RQ is selected according to the socket's rxq index. A new TLS-RX workqueue is used to allow asynchronous addition of steering rules, out of the NAPI context. It will be also used in a downstream patch in the resync procedure. Feature is OFF by default. Can be turned on by: $ ethtool -K <if> tls-hw-rx-offload on 4) Added mlx5 kTLS sw stats and new counters are documented in Documentation/networking/tls-offload.rst rx_tls_ctx - number of TLS RX HW offload contexts added to device for decryption. rx_tls_ooo - number of RX packets which were part of a TLS stream but did not arrive in the expected order and triggered the resync procedure. rx_tls_del - number of TLS RX HW offload contexts deleted from device (connection has finished). rx_tls_err - number of RX packets which were part of a TLS stream but were not decrypted due to unexpected error in the state machine. 5) Asynchronous RX resync a. The NIC driver indicates that it would like to resync on some TLS record within the received packet (P), but the driver does not know (yet) which of the TLS records within the packet. At this stage, the NIC driver will query the device to find the exact TCP sequence for resync (tcpsn), however, the driver does not wait for the device to provide the response. b. Eventually, the device responds, and the driver provides the tcpsn within the resync packet to KTLS. Now, KTLS can check the tcpsn against any processed TLS records within packet P, and also against any record that is processed in the future within packet P. The asynchronous resync path simplifies the device driver, as it can save bits on the packet completion (32-bit TCP sequence), and pass this information on an asynchronous command instead.

Petr Machata says: ==================== TC: Introduce qevents The Spectrum hardware allows execution of one of several actions as a result of queue management decisions: tail-dropping, early-dropping, marking a packet, or passing a configured latency threshold or buffer size. Such packets can be mirrored, trapped, or sampled. Modeling the action to be taken as simply a TC action is very attractive, but it is not obvious where to put these actions. At least with ECN marking one could imagine a tree of qdiscs and classifiers that effectively accomplishes this task, albeit in an impractically complex manner. But there is just no way to match on dropped-ness of a packet, let alone dropped-ness due to a particular reason. To allow configuring user-defined actions as a result of inner workings of a qdisc, this patch set introduces a concept of qevents. Those are attach points for TC blocks, where filters can be put that are executed as the packet hits well-defined points in the qdisc algorithms. The attached blocks can be shared, in a manner similar to clsact ingress and egress blocks, arbitrary classifiers with arbitrary actions can be put on them, etc. For example: red limit 500K avpkt 1K qevent early_drop block 10 matchall action mirred egress mirror dev eth1 The central patch #2 introduces several helpers to allow easy and uniform addition of qevents to qdiscs: initialization, destruction, qevent block number change validation, and qevent handling, i.e. dispatch of the filters attached to the block bound to a qevent. Patch #1 adds root_lock argument to qdisc enqueue op. The problem this is tackling is that if a qevent filter pushes packets to the same qdisc tree that holds the qevent in the first place, attempt to take qdisc root lock for the second time will lead to a deadlock. To solve the issue, qevent handler needs to unlock and relock the root lock around the filter processing. Passing root_lock around makes it possible to get the lock where it is needed, and visibly so, such that it is obvious the lock will be used when invoking a qevent. The following two patches, #3 and #4, then add two qevents to the RED qdisc: "early_drop" qevent fires when a packet is early-dropped; "mark" qevent, when it is ECN-marked. Patch #5 contains a selftest. I have mentioned this test when pushing the RED ECN nodrop mode and said that "I have no confidence in its portability to [...] different configurations". That still holds. The backlog and packet size are tuned to make the test deterministic. But it is better than nothing, and on the boxes that I ran it on it does work and shows that qevents work the way they are supposed to, and that their addition has not broken the other tested features. This patch set does not deal with offloading. The idea there is that a driver will be able to figure out that a given block is used in qevent context by looking at binder type. A future patch-set will add a qdisc pointer to struct flow_block_offload, which a driver will be able to consult to glean the TC or other relevant attributes. Changes from RFC to v1: - Move a "q = qdisc_priv(sch)" from patch #3 to patch #4 - Fix deadlock caused by mirroring packet back to the same qdisc tree. - Rename "tail" qevent to "tail_drop". - Adapt to the new 100-column standard. - Add a selftest ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

It tests bare RED, ECN and ECN+nodrop modes of operation. On top of that it tests RED early_drop and mark qevents. Signed-off-by: Petr Machata <petrm@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In order to allow acting on dropped and/or ECN-marked packets, add two new qevents to the RED qdisc: "early_drop" and "mark". Filters attached at "early_drop" block are executed as packets are early-dropped, those attached at the "mark" block are executed as packets are ECN-marked. Two new attributes are introduced: TCA_RED_EARLY_DROP_BLOCK with the block index for the "early_drop" qevent, and TCA_RED_MARK_BLOCK for the "mark" qevent. Absence of these attributes signifies "don't care": no block is allocated in that case, or the existing blocks are left intact in case of the change callback. For purposes of offloading, blocks attached to these qevents appear with newly-introduced binder types, FLOW_BLOCK_BINDER_TYPE_RED_EARLY_DROP and FLOW_BLOCK_BINDER_TYPE_RED_MARK.
