Add support for the net stats64 counters to the usbnet core. With that in place put the hooks into every usbnet driver to use it. This is a strait forward addition of 64bit counters for RX and TX packet and byte counts. It is done in the same style as for the other net drivers that support stats64. Note that the other stats fields remain as 32bit sized values (error counts, etc). The motivation to add this is that it is not particularly difficult to get the RX and TX byte counts to wrap on 32bit platforms.

When an incoming frame is tagged or when GRO is disabled, the skb handled to vxlan_xmit() doesn't contain a valid transport header offset. This makes ND proxying fail. We combine two changes: replace use of skb_transport_offset() and ensure the necessary amount of skb is linear just before using it: - In vxlan_xmit(), when determining if we have an ICMPv6 neighbor discovery packet, just check if it is an ICMPv6 packet and rely on neigh_reduce() to do more checks if this is the case. The use of pskb_may_pull() is replaced by skb_header_pointer() for just the IPv6 header. - In neigh_reduce(), add pskb_may_pull() for IPv6 header and neighbor discovery message since this was removed from vxlan_xmit(). Replace skb_transport_header() with ipv6_hdr() + 1. - In vxlan_na_create(), replace first skb_transport_offset() with ipv6_hdr() + 1 and second with skb_network_offset() + sizeof(struct ipv6hdr). Additionally, ensure we pskb_may_pull() the whole skb as we need it to iterate over the options. Signed-off-by: NVincent Bernat <vincent@bernat.im> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

There is a bug on Hip06 that tx ring interrupts packets count will be clear when drivers send data to tx ring, so that the tx packets count will never upgrade to packets line, and cause the interrupts engendered was delayed. Sometimes, it will cause sending performance lower than expected. To fix this bug, we set tx ring interrupts packets line to 1 forever, to avoid count clear. And set the gap time to 20us, to solve the problem that too many interrupts engendered when packets line is 1. This patch could advance the send performance on ARM from 6.6G to 9.37G when an iperf send thread on ARM and an iperf send thread on X86 for XGE.

Because buf_size of ring set to 2048, the process of rx_poll_one can reuse the page, therefore the performance of XGE can improve. But the chip only supports three bds in one package, so the max mtu is 6K when it sets to 2048. For better performane in litter mtu, we need change buf_size according to mtu. When user change mtu, hns is only change the desc in memory. There are some desc has been fetched by the chip, these desc can not be changed by the code. So it needs set the port loopback and send some packages to let the chip consumes the wrong desc and fetch new desc. Because the Pv660 do not support rss indirection, we need add version check in mtu change process.

David Ahern says: ==================== 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 ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

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.

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.
