      net/ibm/emac: Remove VLA usage · ee4fccbe
      Kees Cook authored 
      In the quest to remove all stack VLA usage from the kernel[1], this
removes the VLA used for the emac xaht registers size. Since the size
of registers can only ever be 4 or 8, as detected in emac_init_config(),
the max can be hardcoded and a runtime test added for robustness.

      gso_segment: Reset skb->mac_len after modifying network header · 50c12f74
      Toke Høiland-Jørgensen authored 
      When splitting a GSO segment that consists of encapsulated packets, the
skb->mac_len of the segments can end up being set wrong, causing packet
drops in particular when using act_mirred and ifb interfaces in
combination with a qdisc that splits GSO packets.

This happens because at the time skb_segment() is called, network_header
will point to the inner header, throwing off the calculation in
skb_reset_mac_len(). The network_header is subsequently adjust by the
outer IP gso_segment handlers, but they don't set the mac_len.

Fix this by adding skb_reset_mac_len() calls to both the IPv4 and IPv6
gso_segment handlers, after they modify the network_header.

Many thanks to Eric Dumazet for his help in identifying the cause of
the bug.

      When the Device Tree is not providing the per-port interrupts, do not fail
during b53_srab_irq_enable() but instead bail out gracefully. The SRAB driver
is used on the BCM5301X (Northstar) platforms which do not yet have the SRAB
interrupts wired up.

      Merge branch 'vhost_net-TX-batching' · 8bb83b78

====================
vhost_net TX batching

This series tries to batch submitting packets to underlayer socket
through msg_control during sendmsg(). This is done by:

1) Doing userspace copy inside vhost_net
2) Build XDP buff
3) Batch at most 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) XDP buffs and submit them once
   through msg_control during sendmsg().
4) Underlayer sockets can use XDP buffs directly when XDP is enalbed,
   or build skb based on XDP buff.

For the packet that can not be built easily with XDP or for the case
that batch submission is hard (e.g sndbuf is limited). We will go for
the previous slow path, passing iov iterator to underlayer socket
through sendmsg() once per packet.

This can help to improve cache utilization and avoid lots of indirect
calls with sendmsg(). It can also co-operate with the batching support
of the underlayer sockets (e.g the case of XDP redirection through
maps).

Testpmd(txonly) in guest shows obvious improvements:

Test                /+pps%
XDP_DROP on TAP     /+44.8%
XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29%
macvtap (skb)       /+26%

      vhost_net: batch submitting XDP buffers to underlayer sockets · 0a0be13b
      Jason Wang authored 
      This patch implements XDP batching for vhost_net. The idea is first to
try to do userspace copy and build XDP buff directly in vhost. Instead
of submitting the packet immediately, vhost_net will batch them in an
array and submit every 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) packets to the under layer
sockets through msg_control of sendmsg().

When XDP is enabled on the TUN/TAP, TUN/TAP can process XDP inside a
loop without caring GUP thus it can do batch map flushing. When XDP is
not enabled or not supported, the underlayer socket need to build skb
and pass it to network core. The batched packet submission allows us
to do batching like netif_receive_skb_list() in the future.

This saves lots of indirect calls for better cache utilization. For
the case that we can't so batching e.g when sndbuf is limited or
packet size is too large, we will go for usual one packet per
sendmsg() way.

Doing testpmd on various setups gives us:

Test                /+pps%
XDP_DROP on TAP     /+44.8%
XDP_REDIRECT on TAP /+29%
macvtap (skb)       /+26%

      tap: accept an array of XDP buffs through sendmsg() · 0efac277
      Jason Wang authored 
      This patch implement TUN_MSG_PTR msg_control type. This type allows
the caller to pass an array of XDP buffs to tuntap through ptr field
of the tun_msg_control. Tap will build skb through those XDP buffers.

This will avoid lots of indirect calls thus improves the icache
utilization and allows to do XDP batched flushing when doing XDP
redirection.
