Drivers usually have a number of restrictions for running XDP - most common being buffer sizes, LRO and number of rings. Even though some drivers try to be helpful and print error messages experience shows that users don't often consult kernel logs on netlink errors. Try to use the new extended ack mechanism to carry the message back to user space.

This provides a generic SKB based non-optimized XDP path which is used if either the driver lacks a specific XDP implementation, or the user requests it via a new IFLA_XDP_FLAGS value named XDP_FLAGS_SKB_MODE. It is arguable that perhaps I should have required something like this as part of the initial XDP feature merge. I believe this is critical for two reasons: 1) Accessibility. More people can play with XDP with less dependencies. Yes I know we have XDP support in virtio_net, but that just creates another depedency for learning how to use this facility. I wrote this to make life easier for the XDP newbies. 2) As a model for what the expected semantics are. If there is a pure generic core implementation, it serves as a semantic example for driver folks adding XDP support. One thing I have not tried to address here is the issue of XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM, thanks to Daniel for spotting that. It seems incredibly expensive to do a skb_cow(skb, XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM) or whatever even if the XDP program doesn't try to push headers at all. I think we really need the verifier to somehow propagate whether certain XDP helpers are used or not. v5: - Handle both negative and positive offset after running prog - Fix mac length in XDP_TX case (Alexei) - Use rcu_dereference_protected() in free_netdev (kbuild test robot) v4: - Fix MAC header adjustmnet before calling prog (David Ahern) - Disable LRO when generic XDP is installed (Michael Chan) - Bypass qdisc et al. on XDP_TX and record the event (Alexei) - Do not perform generic XDP on reinjected packets (DaveM) v3: - Make sure XDP program sees packet at MAC header, push back MAC header if we do XDP_TX. (Alexei) - Elide GRO when generic XDP is in use. (Alexei) - Add XDP_FLAG_SKB_MODE flag which the user can use to request generic XDP even if the driver has an XDP implementation. (Alexei) - Report whether SKB mode is in use in rtnl_xdp_fill() via XDP_FLAGS attribute. (Daniel) v2: - Add some "fall through" comments in switch statements based upon feedback from Andrew Lunn - Use RCU for generic xdp_prog, thanks to Johannes Berg.

Constants used for tuning are generally a bad idea, especially as hardware changes over time. Replace the constant 2 jiffies with sysctl variable netdev_budget_usecs to enable sysadmins to tune the softirq processing. Also document the variable. For example, a very fast machine might tune this to 1000 microseconds, while my regression testing 486DX-25 needs it to be 4000 microseconds on a nearly idle network to prevent time_squeeze from being incremented.

The configurable priority to traffic class mapping and the user specified queue ranges are used to configure the traffic class, overriding the hardware defaults when the 'hw' option is set to 0. However, when the 'hw' option is non-zero, the hardware QOS defaults are used. This patch makes it so that we can pass the data the user provided to ndo_setup_tc. This allows us to pull in the queue configuration if the user requested it as well as any additional hardware offload type requested by using a value other than 1 for the hw value. Finally it also provides a means for the device driver to return the level supported for the offload type via the qopt->hw value. Previously we were just always assuming the value to be 1, in the future values beyond just 1 may be supported.

While playing with mlx4 hardware timestamping of RX packets, I found that some packets were received by TCP stack with a ~200 ms delay... Since the timestamp was provided by the NIC, and my probe was added in tcp_v4_rcv() while in BH handler, I was confident it was not a sender issue, or a drop in the network. This would happen with a very low probability, but hurting RPC workloads. A NAPI driver normally arms the IRQ after the napi_complete_done(), after NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so that the hard irq handler can grab it. Problem is that if another point in the stack grabs NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit while IRQ are not disabled, we might have later an IRQ firing and finding this bit set, right before napi_complete_done() clears it. This can happen with busy polling users, or if gro_flush_timeout is used. But some other uses of napi_schedule() in drivers can cause this as well. thread 1 thread 2 (could be on same cpu, or not) // busy polling or napi_watchdog() napi_schedule(); ... napi->poll() device polling: read 2 packets from ring buffer Additional 3rd packet is available. device hard irq // does nothing because NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit is owned by thread 1 napi_schedule(); napi_complete_done(napi, 2); rearm_irq(); Note that rearm_irq() will not force the device to send an additional IRQ for the packet it already signaled (3rd packet in my example) This patch adds a new NAPI_STATE_MISSED bit, that napi_schedule_prep() can set if it could not grab NAPI_STATE_SCHED Then napi_complete_done() properly reschedules the napi to make sure we do not miss something. Since we manipulate multiple bits at once, use cmpxchg() like in sk_busy_loop() to provide proper transactions. In v2, I changed napi_watchdog() to use a relaxed variant of napi_schedule_prep() : No need to set NAPI_STATE_MISSED from this point. In v3, I added more details in the changelog and clears NAPI_STATE_MISSED in busy_poll_stop() In v4, I added the ideas given by Alexander Duyck in v3 review Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Alexander Duyck <alexander.duyck@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

The stack must not pass packets to device drivers that are shorter than the minimum link layer header length. Previously, packet sockets would drop packets smaller than or equal to dev->hard_header_len, but this has false positives. Zero length payload is used over Ethernet. Other link layer protocols support variable length headers. Support for validation of these protocols removed the min length check for all protocols. Introduce an explicit dev->min_header_len parameter and drop all packets below this value. Initially, set it to non-zero only for Ethernet and loopback. Other protocols can follow in a patch to net-next.

The network stack no longer uses the last_rx member of struct net_device since the bonding driver switched to use its own private last_rx in commit 9f242738 ("bonding: use last_arp_rx in slave_last_rx()"). However, some drivers still (ab)use the field for their own purposes and some driver just update it without actually using it. Previously, there was an accompanying comment for the last_rx member added in commit 4dc89133 ("net: add a comment on netdev->last_rx") which asked drivers not to update is, unless really needed. However, this commend was removed in commit f8ff080d ("bonding: remove useless updating of slave->dev->last_rx"), so some drivers added later on still did update last_rx. Remove all usage of last_rx and switch three drivers (sky2, atp and smc91c92_cs) which actually read and write it to use their own private copy in netdev_priv.

This is usually done through the combination of gro_header_hard and gro_header_slow, however, the IPv6 extension header path did the pulling directly and would continue to use the GRO fast path incorrectly.

Oftenly, introducing side effects on packet processing on the other half of the stack by adjusting one of TX/RX via sysctl is not desirable. There are cases of demand for asymmetric, orthogonal configurability. This holds true especially for nodes where RPS for RFS usage on top is configured and therefore use the 'old dev_weight'. This is quite a common base configuration setup nowadays, even with NICs of superior processing support (e.g. aRFS). A good example use case are nodes acting as noSQL data bases with a large number of tiny requests and rather fewer but large packets as responses. It's affordable to have large budget and rx dev_weights for the requests. But as a side effect having this large a number on TX processed in one run can overwhelm drivers. This patch therefore introduces an independent configurability via sysctl to userland. Signed-off-by: NMatthias Tafelmeier <matthias.tafelmeier@gmx.net> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Calling ndo_setup_tc of the mirred (egress) device instead of the ingress device will allow a resolution between the software ingress device and the underline hardware device.

After commit 4cd13c21 ("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job"), sk_busy_loop() needs a bit of care : softirqs might be delayed since we do not allow preemption yet. This patch adds preemptiom points in sk_busy_loop(), and makes sure no unnecessary cache line dirtying or atomic operations are done while looping. A new flag is added into napi->state : NAPI_STATE_IN_BUSY_POLL This prevents napi_complete_done() from clearing NAPIF_STATE_SCHED, so that sk_busy_loop() does not have to grab it again. Similarly, netpoll_poll_lock() is done one time. This gives about 10 to 20 % improvement in various busy polling tests, especially when many threads are busy polling in configurations with large number of NIC queues. This should allow experimenting with bigger delays without hurting overall latencies. Tested: On a 40Gb mlx4 NIC, 32 RX/TX queues. echo 70 >/proc/sys/net/core/busy_read for i in `seq 1 40`; do echo -n $i: ; ./super_netperf $i -H lpaa24 -t UDP_RR -- -N -n; done Before: After: 1: 90072 92819 2: 157289 184007 3: 235772 213504 4: 344074 357513 5: 394755 458267 6: 461151 487819 7: 549116 625963 8: 544423 716219 9: 720460 738446 10: 794686 837612 11: 915998 923960 12: 937507 925107 13: 1019677 971506 14: 1046831 1113650 15: 1114154 1148902 16: 1105221 1179263 17: 1266552 1299585 18: 1258454 1383817 19: 1341453 1312194 20: 1363557 1488487 21: 1387979 1501004 22: 1417552 1601683 23: 1550049 1642002 24: 1568876 1601915 25: 1560239 1683607 26: 1640207 1745211 27: 1706540 1723574 28: 1638518 1722036 29: 1734309 1757447 30: 1782007 1855436 31: 1724806 1888539 32: 1717716 1944297 33: 1778716 1869118 34: 1805738 1983466 35: 1815694 2020758 36: 1893059 2035632 37: 1843406 2034653 38: 1888830 2086580 39: 1972827 2143567 40: 1877729 2181851 Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Cc: Adam Belay <abelay@google.com> Cc: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@mellanox.com> Cc: Yuval Mintz <Yuval.Mintz@cavium.com> Cc: Ariel Elior <ariel.elior@cavium.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

If the bpf program calls bpf_redirect(dev, 0) and dev is an ipip/ip6tnl, it currently includes the mac header. e.g. If dev is ipip, the end result is IP-EthHdr-IP instead of IP-IP. The fix is to pull the mac header. At ingress, skb_postpull_rcsum() is not needed because the ethhdr should have been pulled once already and then got pushed back just before calling the bpf_prog. At egress, this patch calls skb_postpull_rcsum(). If bpf_redirect(dev, BPF_F_INGRESS) is called, it also fails now because it calls dev_forward_skb() which eventually calls eth_type_trans(skb, dev). The eth_type_trans() will set skb->type = PACKET_OTHERHOST because the mac address does not match the redirecting dev->dev_addr. The PACKET_OTHERHOST will eventually cause the ip_rcv() errors out. To fix this, ____dev_forward_skb() is added. Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

This patch adds support for setting and using XPS when QoS via traffic classes is enabled. With this change we will factor in the priority and traffic class mapping of the packet and use that information to correctly select the queue. This allows us to define a set of queues for a given traffic class via mqprio and then configure the XPS mapping for those queues so that the traffic flows can avoid head-of-line blocking between the individual CPUs if so desired.
