====================
net: mpls: Allow users to configure more labels per route

Increase the maximum number of new labels for MPLS routes from 2 to 30.

To keep memory consumption in check, the labels array is moved to the end
of mpls_nh and mpls_iptunnel_encap structs as a 0-sized array. Allocations
use the maximum number of labels across all nexthops in a route for LSR
and the number of labels configured for LWT.

The mpls_route layout is changed to:

   +----------------------+
   | mpls_route           |
   +----------------------+
   | mpls_nh 0            |
   +----------------------+
   | alignment padding    |   4 bytes for odd number of labels; 0 for even
   +----------------------+
   | via[rt_max_alen] 0   |
   +----------------------+
   | alignment padding    |   via's aligned on sizeof(unsigned long)
   +----------------------+
   | ...                  |

Meaning the via follows its mpls_nh providing better locality as the
number of labels increases. UDP_RR tests with namespaces shows no impact
to a modest performance increase with this layout for 1 or 2 labels and
1 or 2 nexthops.

mpls_route allocation size is limited to 4096 bytes allowing on the
order of 30 nexthops with 30 labels (or more nexthops with fewer
labels). LWT encap shares same maximum number of labels as mpls routing.

v3
- initialize n_labels to 0 in case RTA_NEWDST is not defined; detected
  by the kbuild test robot

v2
- updates per Eric's comments
  + added patch to ensure all reads of rt_nhn_alive and nh_flags in
    the packet path use READ_ONCE and all writes via event handlers
    use WRITE_ONCE

  + limit mpls_route size to 4096 (PAGE_SIZE for most arch)

  + mostly killed use of MAX_NEW_LABELS; it exists only for common
    limit between lwt and routing paths

      net: mpls: Increase max number of labels for lwt encap · 1511009c
      David Ahern authored 
      Alow users to push down more labels per MPLS encap. Similar to LSR case,
move label array to the end of mpls_iptunnel_encap and allocate based on
the number of labels for the route.

For consistency with the LSR case, re-use the same maximum number of
labels.

      David Ahern authored 
      Allow users to push down more labels per MPLS route. With the previous
patches, no memory allocations are based on MAX_NEW_LABELS; the limit
is only used to keep userspace in check.

At this point MAX_NEW_LABELS is only used for mpls_route_config (copying
route data from userspace) and processing nexthops looking for the max
number of labels across the route spec.

      net: mpls: change mpls_route layout · 59b20966
      David Ahern authored 
      Move labels to the end of mpls_nh as a 0-sized array and within mpls_route
move the via for a nexthop after the mpls_nh. The new layout becomes:

   +----------------------+
   | mpls_route           |
   +----------------------+
   | mpls_nh 0            |
   +----------------------+
   | alignment padding    |   4 bytes for odd number of labels; 0 for even
   +----------------------+
   | via[rt_max_alen] 0   |
   +----------------------+
   | alignment padding    |   via's aligned on sizeof(unsigned long)
   +----------------------+
   | ...                  |
   +----------------------+
   | mpls_nh n-1          |
   +----------------------+
   | via[rt_max_alen] n-1 |
   +----------------------+

Memory allocated for nexthop + via is constant across all nexthops and
their via. It is based on the maximum number of labels across all nexthops
and the maximum via length. The size is saved in the mpls_route as
rt_nh_size. Accessing a nexthop becomes rt->rt_nh + index * rt->rt_nh_size.

The offset of the via address from a nexthop is saved as rt_via_offset
so that given an mpls_nh pointer the via for that hop is simply
nh + rt->rt_via_offset.

With prior code, memory allocated per mpls_route with 1 nexthop:
     via is an ethernet address - 64 bytes
     via is an ipv4 address     - 64
     via is an ipv6 address     - 72

With this patch set, memory allocated per mpls_route with 1 nexthop and
1 or 2 labels:
     via is an ethernet address - 56 bytes
     via is an ipv4 address     - 56
     via is an ipv6 address     - 64

The 8-byte reduction is due to the previous patch; the change introduced
by this patch has no impact on the size of allocations for 1 or 2 labels.

Performance impact of this change was examined using network namespaces
with veth pairs connecting namespaces. ns0 inserts the packet to the
label-switched path using an lwt route with encap mpls. ns1 adds 1 or 2
labels depending on test, ns2 (and ns3 for 2-label test) pops the label
and forwards. ns3 (or ns4) for a 2-label is the destination. Similar
series of namespaces used for 2-nexthop test.

Intent is to measure changes to latency (overhead in manipulating the
packet) in the forwarding path. Tests used netperf with UDP_RR.

IPv4:                     current   patches
   1 label, 1 nexthop      29908     30115
   2 label, 1 nexthop      29071     29612
   1 label, 2 nexthop      29582     29776
   2 label, 2 nexthop      29086     29149

IPv6:                     current   patches
   1 label, 1 nexthop      24502     24960
   2 label, 1 nexthop      24041     24407
   1 label, 2 nexthop      23795     23899
   2 label, 2 nexthop      23074     22959

In short, the change has no effect to a modest increase in performance.
This is expected since this patch does not really have an impact on routes
with 1 or 2 labels (the current limit) and 1 or 2 nexthops.

      net: mpls: Convert number of nexthops to u8 · 77ef013a
      David Ahern authored 
      Number of nexthops and number of alive nexthops are tracked using an
unsigned int. A route should never have more than 255 nexthops so
convert both to u8. Update all references and intermediate variables
to consistently use u8 as well.

Shrinks the size of mpls_route from 32 bytes to 24 bytes with a 2-byte
hole before the nexthops.

      net: mpls: rt_nhn_alive and nh_flags should be accessed using READ_ONCE · 39eb8cd1
      David Ahern authored 
      The number of alive nexthops for a route (rt->rt_nhn_alive) and the
flags for a next hop (nh->nh_flags) are modified by netdev event
handlers. The event handlers run with rtnl_lock held so updates are
always done with the lock held. The packet path accesses the fields
under the rcu lock. Since those fields can change at any moment in
the packet path, both fields should be accessed using READ_ONCE. Updates
to both fields should use WRITE_ONCE.

Update mpls_select_multipath (packet path) and mpls_ifdown and mpls_ifup
(event handlers) accordingly.

      udp: use sk_protocol instead of pcflag to detect udplite sockets · 3d8417d7
      Paolo Abeni authored 
      In the udp_sock struct, the 'forward_deficit' and 'pcflag' fields
share the same cacheline. While the first is dirtied by
udp_recvmsg, the latter is read, possibly several times, by the
bottom half processing to discriminate between udp and udplite
sockets.

With this patch, sk->sk_protocol is used to check is the socket is
really an udplite one, avoiding some cache misses per
packet and improving the performance under udp_flood with
small packet up to 10%.

Fix this by adding a dependency on MAY_USE_DEVLINK so that CONFIG_NET_DSA

      Merge branch 'phylib-EEE-updates' · 88f913f5
      David S. Miller authored 
      Russell King says:

====================
phylib EEE updates

This series of patches depends on the previous set of changes, and is
therefore net-next material.

While testing the EEE code, I discovered a number of issues:

1. It is possible to enable advertisment of EEE modes which are not
   supported by the hardware.  We omit to check the supported modes
   and mask off those modes that are not supported before writing the
   EEE advertisment register.

2. We need to restart autonegotiation after a change of the EEE
   advertisment, otherwise the link partner does not see the updated
   EEE modes.

3. SGMII connected PHYs are also capable of supporting EEE.

Through discussion with Florian, it has been decided to remove the check
for the PHY interface mode in patch (3).

      net: phy: allow EEE with any interface mode · 32d75141
      Russell King authored 
      EEE is able to work in any PHY interface mode, there is nothing which
fundamentally restricts it to only a few modes.  For example, EEE works
in SGMII mode with the Marvell 88E1512.

Rather than just adding SGMII mode to the list, Florian suggests
removing the list of interface modes entirely:

  It actually sounds like we should just kill the check entirely,
  it does not appear that any of the interface mode would not
  fundamentally be able to support EEE, because the "lowest" mode
  we support is MII, and even there it's quite possible to support
  EEE.

      net: phy: avoid setting unsupported EEE advertisments · 83ea067f
      Russell King authored 
      We currently allow userspace to set any EEE advertisments it desires,
whether or not the PHY supports them.  For example:

 # ethtool --set-eee eth1 advertise 0xffffffff
 # ethtool --show-eee eth1
 EEE Settings for eth1:
        EEE status: disabled
        Tx LPI: disabled
        Supported EEE link modes:  100baseT/Full
                                   1000baseT/Full
                                   10000baseT/Full
        Advertised EEE link modes:  100baseT/Full
                                    1000baseT/Full
                                    1000baseKX/Full
                                    10000baseT/Full
                                    10000baseKX4/Full
                                    10000baseKR/Full

Clearly, this is not sane, we should only allow link modes that are
supported to be advertised (as we do elsewhere.)  Ensure that we mask
the MDIO_AN_EEE_ADV value with the capabilities retrieved from the
MDIO_PCS_EEE_ABLE register.
