This patch assumes that the bnxt hardware will ignore existing IPv4/v6 header fields for length and checksum as well as the length and checksum fields for outer UDP and GRE headers. I have been told by Michael Chan that this is working. Though this might be somewhat redundant for IPv6 as they are forcing the checksum to be computed for all IPv6 frames that are offloaded. A follow-up patch may be necessary in order to fix this as it is essentially mangling the outer IPv6 headers to add a checksum where none was requested.

The mlx5 driver exposes support for TSO6 but not IPv6 csum for hardware encapsulated tunnels. This leads to issues as it triggers warnings in skb_checksum_help as it ends up being called as we report supporting the segmentation but not the checksumming for IPv6 frames. This patch corrects that and drops 2 features that don't actually need to be supported in hw_enc_features since they are Rx features and don't actually impact anything by being present in hw_enc_features.

>From what I can tell the ConnectX-3 will support an inner IPv6 checksum and segmentation offload, however it cannot support outer IPv6 headers. This assumption is based on the fact that I could see the checksum being offloaded for inner header on IPv4 tunnels, but not on IPv6 tunnels. For this reason I am adding the feature to the hw_enc_features and adding an extra check to the features_check call that will disable GSO and checksum offload in the case that the encapsulated frame has an outer IP version of that is not 4. The check in mlx4_en_features_check could be removed if at some point in the future a fix is found that allows the hardware to offload segmentation/checksum on tunnels with an outer IPv6 header.

This patch addresses a possible issue that can occur if we get into any odd corner cases where we support TSO for a given protocol but not the checksum or scatter-gather offload. There are few drivers floating around that setup their tunnels this way and by enforcing the checksum piece we can avoid mangling any frames.

In the event that the number of partial segments is equal to 1 we don't really need to perform partial segmentation offload. As such we should skip multiplying the MSS and instead just clear the partial_segs value since it will not provide any gain to advertise the frame as being GSO when it is a single frame.

It's easier for gre_parse_header to return the header length instead of filing it into a parameter. That way, the callers that don't care about the header length can just check whether the returned value is lower than zero. In gre_err, the tunnel header must not be pulled. See commit b7f8fe25 ("gre: do not pull header in ICMP error processing") for details.

In the sendmsg function of UDP, raw, ICMP and l2tp sockets, we use local variables like hlimits, tclass, opt and dontfrag and pass them to corresponding functions like ip6_make_skb, ip6_append_data and xxx_push_pending_frames. This is not a good practice and makes it hard to add new parameters. This fix introduces a new struct ipcm6_cookie similar to ipcm_cookie in ipv4 and include the above mentioned variables. And we only pass the pointer to this structure to corresponding functions. This makes it easier to add new parameters in the future and makes the function cleaner.

An arbitration scheme for duelling SYNs is implemented as part of commit 241b2719 ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()") which ensures that both nodes involved will arrive at the same arbitration decision. However, this needs to be synchronized with an outgoing SYN to be generated by rds_tcp_conn_connect(). This commit achieves the synchronization through the t_conn_lock mutex in struct rds_tcp_connection. The rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_conn_connect() after acquiring the t_conn_lock mutex. A SYN is sent out only if the RDS connection is not already UP (an UP would indicate that rds_tcp_accept_one() has completed 3WH, so no SYN needs to be generated). Similarly, the rds_conn_state is checked in rds_tcp_accept_one() after acquiring the t_conn_lock mutex. The only acceptable states (to allow continuation of the arbitration logic) are UP (i.e., outgoing SYN was SYN-ACKed by peer after it sent us the SYN) or CONNECTING (we sent outgoing SYN before we saw incoming SYN).

There is a race condition between rds_send_xmit -> rds_tcp_xmit and the code that deals with resolution of duelling syns added by commit 241b2719 ("RDS-TCP: Reset tcp callbacks if re-using an outgoing socket in rds_tcp_accept_one()"). Specifically, we may end up derefencing a null pointer in rds_send_xmit if we have the interleaving sequence: rds_tcp_accept_one rds_send_xmit conn is RDS_CONN_UP, so invoke rds_tcp_xmit tc = conn->c_transport_data rds_tcp_restore_callbacks /* reset t_sock */ null ptr deref from tc->t_sock The race condition can be avoided without adding the overhead of additional locking in the xmit path: have rds_tcp_accept_one wait for rds_tcp_xmit threads to complete before resetting callbacks. The synchronization can be done in the same manner as rds_conn_shutdown(). First set the rds_conn_state to something other than RDS_CONN_UP (so that new threads cannot get into rds_tcp_xmit()), then wait for RDS_IN_XMIT to be cleared in the conn->c_flags indicating that any threads in rds_tcp_xmit are done.

Alexander Duyck says: ==================== Fixes for tunnel checksum and segmentation offloads This patch series is a subset of patches I had submitted for net-next. I plan to drop these two patches from the v3 of "Fix Tunnel features and enable GSO partial for several drivers" and I am instead submitting them for net since these are truly fixes and likely will need to be backported to stable branches. This series addresses 2 specific issues. The first is that we could request TSO on a v4 inner header while not supporting checksum offload of the outer IPv6 header. The second is that we could request an IPv6 inner checksum offload without validating that we could actually support an inner IPv6 checksum offload. ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

We need to perform an additional check on the inner headers to determine if we can offload the checksum for them. Previously this check didn't occur so we would generate an invalid frame in the case of an IPv6 header encapsulated inside of an IPv4 tunnel. To fix this I added a secondary check to vxlan_features_check so that we can verify that we can offload the inner checksum.

Jon Maloy says: ==================== tipc: redesign socket-level flow control The socket-level flow control in TIPC has long been due for a major overhaul. This series fixes this. ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

由 Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
There are two flow control mechanisms in TIPC; one at link level that handles network congestion, burst control, and retransmission, and one at connection level which' only remaining task is to prevent overflow in the receiving socket buffer. In TIPC, the latter task has to be solved end-to-end because messages can not be thrown away once they have been accepted and delivered upwards from the link layer, i.e, we can never permit the receive buffer to overflow. Currently, this algorithm is message based. A counter in the receiving socket keeps track of number of consumed messages, and sends a dedicated acknowledge message back to the sender for each 256 consumed message. A counter at the sending end keeps track of the sent, not yet acknowledged messages, and blocks the sender if this number ever reaches 512 unacknowledged messages. When the missing acknowledge arrives, the socket is then woken up for renewed transmission. This works well for keeping the message flow running, as it almost never happens that a sender socket is blocked this way. A problem with the current mechanism is that it potentially is very memory consuming. Since we don't distinguish between small and large messages, we have to dimension the socket receive buffer according to a worst-case of both. I.e., the window size must be chosen large enough to sustain a reasonable throughput even for the smallest messages, while we must still consider a scenario where all messages are of maximum size. Hence, the current fix window size of 512 messages and a maximum message size of 66k results in a receive buffer of 66 MB when truesize(66k) = 131k is taken into account. It is possible to do much better. This commit introduces an algorithm where we instead use 1024-byte blocks as base unit. This unit, always rounded upwards from the actual message size, is used when we advertise windows as well as when we count and acknowledge transmitted data. The advertised window is based on the configured receive buffer size in such a way that even the worst-case truesize/msgsize ratio always is covered. Since the smallest possible message size (from a flow control viewpoint) now is 1024 bytes, we can safely assume this ratio to be less than four, which is the value we are now using. This way, we have been able to reduce the default receive buffer size from 66 MB to 2 MB with maintained performance. In order to keep this solution backwards compatible, we introduce a new capability bit in the discovery protocol, and use this throughout the message sending/reception path to always select the right unit.

In the refactoring commit d570d864 ("tipc: enqueue arrived buffers in socket in separate function") we did by accident replace the test if (sk->sk_backlog.len == 0) atomic_set(&tsk->dupl_rcvcnt, 0); with if (sk->sk_backlog.len) atomic_set(&tsk->dupl_rcvcnt, 0); This effectively disables the compensation we have for the double receive buffer accounting that occurs temporarily when buffers are moved from the backlog to the socket receive queue. Until now, this has gone unnoticed because of the large receive buffer limits we are applying, but becomes indispensable when we reduce this buffer limit later in this series. We now fix this by inverting the mentioned condition. Acked-by: NYing Xue <ying.xue@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: NJon Maloy <jon.maloy@ericsson.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Joachim Eastwood says: ==================== stmmac: dwmac-socfpga refactor+cleanup This patch aims to remove the init/exit callbacks from the dwmac- socfpga driver and instead use standard PM callbacks. Doing this will also allow us to cleanup the driver. Eventually the init/exit callbacks will be deprecated and removed from all drivers dwmac-* except for dwmac-generic. Drivers will be refactored to use standard PM and remove callbacks. This patch set should not change the behavior of the driver itself, it only moves code around. The only exception to this is patch number 4 which restores the resume callback behavior which was changed in the "net: stmmac: socfpga: Remove re-registration of reset controller" patch. I belive calling phy_resume() only from the resume callback and not probe is the right thing to do. Changes from v1: - Rebase on net-next One heads-up here: The first patch changes the prototype of a couple of functions used in Alexandre's "add Ethernet glue logic for stm32 chip" patch [1] and will cause build failures for dwmac-stm32.c if not fixed up!
