* | net: dsa: generalize overhead for taggers that use both headers and trailersVladimir Oltean2021-06-111-10/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some really really weird switches just couldn't decide whether to use a normal or a tail tagger, so they just did both. This creates problems for DSA, because we only have the concept of an 'overhead' which can be applied to the headroom or to the tailroom of the skb (like for example during the central TX reallocation procedure), depending on the value of bool tail_tag, but not to both. We need to generalize DSA to cater for these odd switches by transforming the 'overhead / tail_tag' pair into 'needed_headroom / needed_tailroom'. The DSA master's MTU is increased to account for both. The flow dissector code is modified such that it only calls the DSA adjustment callback if the tagger has a non-zero header length. Taggers are trivially modified to declare either needed_headroom or needed_tailroom, based on the tail_tag value that they currently declare.

* | net/mlx5: Bridge, support pvid and untagged vlan configurationsVlad Buslov2021-06-101-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implement support for pushing vlan header into untagged packet on ingress of port that has pvid configured and support for popping vlan on egress of port that has the matching vlan configured as untagged. To support such configurations packet reformat contexts of {INSERT|REMOVE}_HEADER types are created per such vlan and saved to struct mlx5_esw_bridge_vlan which allows all FDB entries on particular vlan to share single packet reformat instance. When initializing FDB entries with pvid or untagged vlan type set its mlx5_flow_act->pkt_reformat action accordingly. Flush all flows when removing vlan from port. This is necessary because even though software bridge removes all FDB entries before removing their vlan, mlx5 bridge implementation deletes their corresponding flow entries from hardware in asynchronous workqueue task, which will cause firmware error if vlan packet reformat context is deleted before all flows that point to it.

* | net/mlx5: Bridge, handle FDB eventsVlad Buslov2021-06-101-0/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Hardware supported by mlx5 driver doesn't provide learning and requires the driver to emulate all switch-like behavior in software. As such, all packets by default go through miss path, appear on representor and get to software bridge, if it is the upper device of the representor. This causes bridge to process packet in software, learn the MAC address to FDB and send SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE event to all subscribers. In order to offload FDB entries in mlx5, register switchdev notifier callback and implement support for both 'added_by_user' and dynamic FDB entry SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE events asynchronously using new mlx5_esw_bridge_offloads->wq ordered workqueue. In workqueue callback offload the ingress rule (matching FDB entry MAC as packet source MAC) and egress table rule (matching FDB entry MAC as destination MAC). For ingress table rule also match source vport to ensure that only traffic coming from expected bridge port is matched by offloaded rule. Save all the relevant FDB entry data in struct mlx5_esw_bridge_fdb_entry instance and insert the instance in new mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_list list (for traversing all entries by software ageing implementation in following patch) and in new mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_ht hash table for fast retrieval. Notify the bridge that FDB entry has been offloaded by sending SWITCHDEV_FDB_OFFLOADED notification. Delete FDB entry on reception of SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL_TO_DEVICE event.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | To avoid confusions, it seems better to parse this sysctl parameter as a boolean. We use it as a boolean, no need to parse an integer and bring confusions if we see a value different from 0 and 1, especially with this parameter name: enabled. It seems fine to do this modification because the default value is 1 (enabled). Then the only other interesting value to set is 0 (disabled). All other values would not have changed the default behaviour.

* | ethtool: add FEC statisticsJakub Kicinski2021-04-162-0/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to pause statistics add stats for FEC. The IEEE standard mandates two sets of counters: - 30.5.1.1.17 aFECCorrectedBlocks - 30.5.1.1.18 aFECUncorrectableBlocks where block is a block of bits FEC operates on. Each of these counters is defined per lane (PCS instance). Multiple vendors provide number of corrected _bits_ rather than/as well as blocks. This set adds the 2 standard-based block counters and a extra one for corrected bits. Counters are exposed to user space via netlink in new attributes. Each attribute carries an array of u64s, first element is the total count, and the following ones are a per-lane break down. Much like with pause stats the operation will not fail when driver does not implement the get_fec_stats callback (nor can the driver fail the operation by returning an error). If stats can't be reported the relevant attributes will be empty. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* | net/mlx5: E-Switch, let user to enable disable metadataParav Pandit2021-04-141-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently each packet inserted in eswitch is tagged with a internal metadata to indicate source vport. Metadata tagging is not always needed. Metadata insertion is needed for multi-port RoCE, failover between representors and stacked devices. In many other cases, metadata enablement is not needed. Metadata insertion slows down the packet processing rate of the E-switch when it is in switchdev mode. Below table show performance gain with metadata disabled for VXLAN offload rules in both SMFS and DMFS steering mode on ConnectX-5 device. ---------------------------------------------- | steering | metadata | pkt size | rx pps | | mode | | | (million) | ---------------------------------------------- | smfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 | ---------------------------------------------- | smfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 | ---------------------------------------------- | dmfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 | ---------------------------------------------- | dmfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 | ---------------------------------------------- Hence, allow user to disable metadata using driver specific devlink parameter. Metadata setting of the eswitch is applicable only for the switchdev mode. Example to show and disable metadata before changing eswitch mode: $ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name esw_port_metadata pci/0000:06:00.0: name esw_port_metadata type driver-specific values: cmode runtime value true $ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 \ name esw_port_metadata value false cmode runtime $ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev Signed-off-by: Parav Pandit <parav@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Roi Dayan <roid@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Vu Pham <vuhuong@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com> --- changelog: v1->v2: - added performance numbers in commit log - updated commit log and documentation for switchdev mode - added explicit note on when user can disable metadata in documentation

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Define get_module_eeprom_by_page() ethtool callback and implement netlink infrastructure. get_module_eeprom_by_page() allows network drivers to dump a part of module's EEPROM specified by page and bank numbers along with offset and length. It is effectively a netlink replacement for get_module_info() and get_module_eeprom() pair, which is needed due to emergence of complex non-linear EEPROM layouts.

* | net: x25: Queue received packets in the drivers instead of per-CPU queuesXie He2021-04-051-56/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | X.25 Layer 3 (the Packet Layer) expects layer 2 to provide a reliable datalink service such that no packets are reordered or dropped. And X.25 Layer 2 (the LAPB layer) is indeed designed to provide such service. However, this reliability is not preserved when a driver calls "netif_rx" to deliver the received packets to layer 3, because "netif_rx" will put the packets into per-CPU queues before they are delivered to layer 3. If there are multiple CPUs, the order of the packets may not be preserved. The per-CPU queues may also drop packets if there are too many. Therefore, we should not call "netif_rx" to let it queue the packets. Instead, we should use our own queue that won't reorder or drop packets. This patch changes all X.25 drivers to use their own queues instead of calling "netif_rx". The patch also documents this requirement in the "x25-iface" documentation.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If there is overlapp between ip_local_port_range and ip_local_reserved_ports with a huge reserved block, it will affect probability of selecting ephemeral ports, see file net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:723 int __inet_hash_connect( ... for (i = 0; i < remaining; i += 2, port += 2) { if (unlikely(port >= high)) port -= remaining; if (inet_is_local_reserved_port(net, port)) continue; E.g. if there is reserved block of 10000 ports, two ports right after this block will be 5000 more likely selected than others. If this was intended, we can/should add note into documentation as proposed in this commit, otherwise we should think about different solution. One option could be mapping table of continuous port ranges. Second option could be letting user to modify step (port+=2) in above loop, e.g. using new sysctl parameter.

* | ethtool: support FEC settings over netlinkJakub Kicinski2021-03-311-2/+60
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add FEC API to netlink. This is not a 1-to-1 conversion. FEC settings already depend on link modes to tell user which modes are supported. Take this further an use link modes for manual configuration. Old struct ethtool_fecparam is still used to talk to the drivers, so we need to translate back and forth. We can revisit the internal API if number of FEC encodings starts to grow.
