      mlxsw: spectrum: Correctly configure headroom size · ff6551ec
      Ido Schimmel 提交于
      When packets ingress the switch they are assigned a switch priority and
      directed to the corresponding priority group (PG) buffer in the port's
      headroom buffer.
      
      Since we now map all switch priorities to priority group 0 (PG0) by
      default, there is no need to allocate the other priority groups during
      initialization. The only exception is PG9, which is used for control
      traffic.
      
      At minimum, the PG should be able to store the currently classified
      packet (pipeline latency isn't 0) and also the packets arriving during
      the classification time. However, an incoming packet will not be
      buffered if there is no available MTU-sized buffer space for storing it.
      
      The buffer needed to accommodate for pipeline latency is variable and
      needs to take into account both the current link speed and current
      latency of the pipeline, which is time-dependent. Testing showed that
      setting the PG's size to twice the current MTU is optimal.
      
      Since PG9 is used strictly for control packets and not subject to flow
      control, we are not going to resize it according to user configuration,
      so we simply set it according to worst case scenario, which is twice the
      maximum MTU.
      
      In any case, later patches in the series will allow a user to direct
      lossless flows to other PGs than PG0 and set their size to accommodate
      for round-trip propagation delay.
      
      The above change also requires us to resize the PG buffer whenever the
      port's MTU is changed.

      mlxsw: spectrum: Add bytes to cells helper · 1a198449
      Ido Schimmel 提交于
      Buffers in the switch store packets in units called buffer cells. Add a
      helper to convert from bytes to cells, so that the actual number of
      cells required (result is round up) is returned.
      
      Also, drop the SB (shared buffer) acronym from the BYTES_PER_CELL macro,
      as this unit is also used in the ports' buffers and not only the
      switch's shared buffer.

      mlxsw: spectrum: Map all switch priorities to priority group 0 · dd6cb0f9
      Ido Schimmel 提交于
      During transmission, the skb's priority is used to map the skb to a
      traffic class, where the idea is to group priorities with similar
      characteristics (e.g. lossy, lossless) to the same traffic class. By
      default, all priorities are mapped to traffic class 0.
      
      In the device, we model the skb's priority as the switch priority, which
      is assigned to a packet according to its PCP value and ingress port
      (untagged packets are assigned the port's default switch priority - 0).
      
      At ingress, the packet is directed to a priority group (PG) buffer in
      the port's headroom buffer according to the packet's switch priority and
      switch priority to buffer mapping.
      
      While it's possible to configure the egress mapping between skb's
      priority (switch priority) and traffic class, there is no mechanism to
      configure the ingress mapping to a PG.
      
      In order to keep things simple and since grouping certain priorities into
      a traffic class at egress also implies they should be grouped the same
      at ingress, treat a PG as the ingress counterpart of an egress traffic
      class.
      
      Having established the above, during initialization map all the switch
      priorities to PG0 in accordance with the Linux defaults for traffic
      class mapping.

      ====================
      40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-04-05
      
      This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
      
      Colin Ian King cleaned up a redundant NULL check which was found by static
      analysis.
      
      Anjali enables geneve receive offload for XL710/X710 devices.
      
      Mitch cleans up unused variable in i40e_vc_get_vf_resources_msg().
      Fixed the driver to actually be able to adjust VLAN tagging features
      through ethtool, as expected.  Fixed a problem where VF resets would
      get lost by the PF preventing the VF driver from initializing.  Also
      put users mind at ease by lowering some message levels since many of
      these conditions can happen any time VFs are enabled or disabled and
      are not really indicative a fatal problems, unless they happen
      continuously.
      
      Shannon disables the link polling to lessen the admin queue traffic
      especially since the link event mask usage has been fixed recently.
      
      Alex Duyck fixes the i40e and i40evf drivers to correctly update
      checksums for frames up to 16776960 in length which should be more than
      large enough for all possible TSO frames in the near future.

      ====================
      vxlan: implement Generic Protocol Extension (GPE)
      
      v3: just rebased on top of the current net-next, no changes
      
      This patchset implements VXLAN-GPE. It follows the same model as the tun/tap
      driver: depending on the chosen mode, the vxlan interface is created either
      as ARPHRD_ETHER (non-GPE) or ARPHRD_NONE (GPE).
      
      Note that the internal fdb control plane cannot be used together with
      VXLAN-GPE and attempt to configure it will be rejected by the driver. In
      fact, COLLECT_METADATA is required to be set for now. This can be relaxed in
      the future by adding support for static PtP configuration; it will be
      backward compatible and won't affect existing users.
      
      The previous version of the patchset supported two GPE modes, L2 and L3. The
      L2 mode (now called "ether mode" in the code) was removed from this version.
      It can be easily added later if there's demand. The L3 mode is now called
      "raw mode" and supports also encapsulated Ethernet headers (via ETH_P_TEB).
      
      The only limitation of not having "ether mode" for GPE is for ip route based
      encapsulation: with such setup, only IP packets can be encapsulated. Meaning
      no Ethernet encapsulation. It seems there's not much use for this, though.
      If it turns out to be useful, we'll add it.

      vxlan: implement GPE · e1e5314d
      Jiri Benc 提交于
      Implement VXLAN-GPE. Only COLLECT_METADATA is supported for now (it is
      possible to support static configuration, too, if there is demand for it).
      
      The GPE header parsing has to be moved before iptunnel_pull_header, as we
      need to know the protocol.
      
      v2: Removed what was called "L2 mode" in v1 of the patchset. Only "L3 mode"
          (now called "raw mode") is added by this patch. This mode does not allow
          Ethernet header to be encapsulated in VXLAN-GPE when using ip route to
          specify the encapsulation, IP header is encapsulated instead. The patch
          does support Ethernet to be encapsulated, though, using ETH_P_TEB in
          skb->protocol. This will be utilized by other COLLECT_METADATA users
          (openvswitch in particular).
      
          If there is ever demand for Ethernet encapsulation with VXLAN-GPE using
          ip route, it's easy to add a new flag switching the interface to
          "Ethernet mode" (called "L2 mode" in v1 of this patchset). For now,
          leave this out, it seems we don't need it.
      
          Disallowed more flag combinations, especially RCO with GPE.
          Added comment explaining that GBP and GPE cannot be set together.

      Jiri Benc 提交于
      Handle VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA before VXLAN_F_PROXY. The latter does not
      make sense with the former, as it needs populated fdb which does not happen
      in metadata mode.
      
      After this cleanup, the fdb code in vxlan_xmit is moved to a common location
      and can be later skipped for VXLAN-GPE which does not necessarily carry
      inner Ethernet header.
