      tipc: move link supervision timer to node level · 8a1577c9
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      In our effort to move control of the links to the link aggregation
      layer, we move the perodic link supervision timer to struct tipc_node.
      The new timer is shared between all links belonging to the node, thus
      saving resources, while still kicking the FSM on both its pertaining
      links at each expiration.
      
      The current link timer and corresponding functions are removed.

      tipc: simplify link timer implementation · 333ef69e
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      We create a second, simpler, link timer function, tipc_link_timeout().
      The new function  makes use of the new FSM function introduced in the
      previous commit, and just like it, takes a buffer queue as parameter.
      It returns an event bit field and potentially a link protocol packet
      to the caller.
      
      The existing timer function, link_timeout(), is still needed for a
      while, so we redesign it to become a wrapper around the new function.

      tipc: improve link FSM implementation · 6ab30f9c
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      The link FSM implementation is currently unnecessarily complex.
      It sometimes checks for conditional state outside the FSM data
      before deciding next state, and often performs actions directly
      inside the FSM logics.
      
      In this commit, we create a second, simpler FSM implementation,
      that as far as possible acts only on states and events that it is
      strictly defined for, and postpone any actions until it is finished
      with its decisions. It also returns an event flag field and an a
      buffer queue which may potentially contain a protocol message to
      be sent by the caller.
      
      Unfortunately, we cannot yet make the FSM "clean", in the sense
      that its decisions are only based on FSM state and event, and that
      state changes happen only here. That will have to wait until the
      activate/reset logics has been cleaned up in a future commit.
      
      We also rename the link states as follows:
      
      WORKING_WORKING -> TIPC_LINK_WORKING
      WORKING_UNKNOWN -> TIPC_LINK_PROBING
      RESET_UNKNOWN   -> TIPC_LINK_RESETTING
      RESET_RESET     -> TIPC_LINK_ESTABLISHING
      
      The existing FSM function, link_state_event(), is still needed for
      a while, so we redesign it to make use of the new function.

      tipc: introduce new link protocol msg create function · 426cc2b8
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      As a preparation for later changes, we introduce a new function
      tipc_link_build_proto_msg(). Instead of actually sending the created
      protocol message, it only creates it and adds it to the head of a
      skb queue provided by the caller.

      for a while, we redesign it to make use of the new function.

      tipc: clean up definitions and usage of link flags · d3504c34
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      The status flag LINK_STOPPED is not needed any more, since the
      mechanism for delayed deletion of links has been removed.
      Likewise, LINK_STARTED and LINK_START_EVT are unnecessary,
      because we can just as well start the link timer directly from
      inside tipc_link_create().
      
      We eliminate these flags in this commit.
      
      Instead of the above flags, we now introduce three new link modes,
      TIPC_LINK_OPEN, TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED and TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL. The values
      indicate whether, and in the case of TIPC_LINK_TUNNEL, which, messages
      the link is allowed to receive in this state. TIPC_LINK_BLOCKED also
      blocks timer-driven protocol messages to be sent out, and any change
      to the link FSM. Since the modes are mutually exclusive, we convert
      them to state values, and rename the 'flags' field in struct tipc_link
      to 'exec_mode'.
      
      Finally, we move the #defines for link FSM states and events from link.h
      into enums inside the file link.c, which is the real usage scope of
      these definitions.

      tipc: make media xmit call outside node spinlock context · af9b028e
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      Currently, message sending is performed through a deep call chain,
      where the node spinlock is grabbed and held during a significant
      part of the transmission time. This is clearly detrimental to
      overall throughput performance; it would be better if we could send
      the message after the spinlock has been released.
      
      In this commit, we do instead let the call revert on the stack after
      the buffer chain has been added to the transmission queue, whereafter
      clones of the buffers are transmitted to the device layer outside the
      spinlock scope.
      
      As a further step in our effort to separate the roles of the node
      and link entities we also move the function tipc_link_xmit() to
      node.c, and rename it to tipc_node_xmit().

      tipc: change sk_buffer handling in tipc_link_xmit() · 22d85c79
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      When the function tipc_link_xmit() is given a buffer list for
      transmission, it currently consumes the list both when transmission
      is successful and when it fails, except for the special case when
      it encounters link congestion.
      
      This behavior is inconsistent, and needs to be corrected if we want
      to avoid problems in later commits in this series.
      
      In this commit, we change this to let the function consume the list
      only when transmission is successful, and leave the list with the
      sender in all other cases. We also modifiy the socket code so that
      it adapts to this change, i.e., purges the list when a non-congestion
      error code is returned.

      tipc: use bearer index when looking up active links · 36e78a46
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      struct tipc_node currently holds two arrays of link pointers; one,
      indexed by bearer identity, which contains all links irrespective of
      current state, and one two-slot array for the currently active link
      or links. The latter array contains direct pointers into the elements
      of the former. This has the effect that we cannot know the bearer id of
      a link when accessing it via the "active_links[]" array without actually
      dereferencing the pointer, something we want to avoid in some cases.
      
      In this commit, we do instead store the bearer identity in the
      "active_links" array, and use this as an index to find the right element
      in the overall link entry array. This change should be seen as a
      preparation for the later commits in this series.

      tipc: move link input queue to tipc_node · d39bbd44
      Jon Paul Maloy 提交于
      At present, the link input queue and the name distributor receive
      queues are fields aggregated in struct tipc_link. This is a hazard,
      because a link might be deleted while a receiving socket still keeps
      reference to one of the queues.
      
      This commit fixes this bug. However, rather than adding yet another
      reference counter to the critical data path, we move the two queues
      to safe ground inside struct tipc_node, which is already protected, and
      let the link code only handle references to the queues. This is also
      in line with planned later changes in this area.

      ====================
      switchdev: avoid duplicate packet forwarding
      
      v3:
      
       - Per Nicolas Dichtel review: remove errant empty union.
      
      v2:
      
       - Per davem review: in sk_buff, union fwd_mark with secmark to save space
         since features appear to be mutually exclusive.
       - Per Simon Horman review:
         - fix grammar in switchdev.txt wrt fwd_mark
         - remove some unrelated changes that snuck in
      
      v1:
      
      This patchset was previously submitted as RFC.  No changes from the last
      version (v2) sent under RFC.  Including RFC version history here for reference.
      
      RFC v2:
      
       - s/fwd_mark/offload_fwd_mark
       - use consume_skb rather than kfree_skb when dropping pkt on egress.
       - Use Jiri's suggestion to use ifindex of one of the ports in a group
         as the mark for all the ports in the group.  This can be done with
         no additional storage (no hashtable from v1).  To pull it off, we
         need some simple recursive routines to walk the netdev tree ensuring
         all leaves in the tree (ports) in the same group (e.g. bridge)
         belonging to the same switch device will have the same offload fwd mark.
         Maybe someone sees a better design for the recusive routines?  They're
         not too bad, and should cover the stacked driver cases.
      
      RFC v1:
      
      With switchdev support for offloading L2/L3 forwarding data path to a
      switch device, we have a general problem where both the device and the
      kernel may forward the packet, resulting in duplicate packets on the wire.
      Anytime a packet is forwarded by the device and a copy is sent to the CPU,
      there is potential for duplicate forwarding, as the kernel may also do a
      forwarding lookup and send the packet on the wire.
      
      The specific problem this patch series is interested in solving is avoiding
      duplicate packets on bridged ports.  There was a previous RFC from Roopa
      (http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=142687073314252&w=2) to address this
      problem, but didn't solve the problem of mixed ports in the bridge from
      different devices; there was no way to exclude some ports from forwarding
      and include others.  This RFC solves that problem by tagging the ingressing
      packet with a unique mark, and then comparing the packet mark with the
      egress port mark, and skip forwarding when there is a match.  For the mixed
      ports bridge case, only those ports with matching marks are skipped.
      
      The switchdev port driver must do two things:
      
      1) Generate a fwd_mark for each switch port, using some unique key of the
         switch device (and optionally port).  This is done when the port netdev
         is registered or if the port's group membership changes (joins/leaves
         a bridge, for example).
      
      2) On packet ingress from port, mark the skb with the ingress port's
         fwd_mark.  If the device supports it, it's useful to only mark skbs
         which were already forwarded by the device.  If the device does not
         support such indication, all skbs can be marked, even if they're
         local dst.
      
      Two new 32-bit fields are added to struct sk_buff and struct netdevice to
      hold the fwd_mark.  I've wrapped these with CONFIG_NET_SWITCHDEV for now. I
      tried using skb->mark for this purpose, but ebtables can overwrite the
      skb->mark before the bridge gets it, so that will not work.
      
      In general, this fwd_mark can be used for any case where a packet is
      forwarded by the device and a copy is sent to the CPU, to avoid the kernel
      re-forwarding the packet.  sFlow is another use-case that comes to mind,
      but I haven't explored the details.

      (on expire, on device delete or on device down).
      Patch 02 changes how bridge device and bridge port delete and down/up are
      handled. Until now on bridge down all groups were flushed, now only the
      temp ones are (same for port), perm entries are flushed only on port or
      bridge removal.

      When the bridge (or port) is brought down/up flush only temp entries and
      leave the perm ones. Flush perm entries only when deleting the bridge
      device or the associated port.

      ebpf: add helper to retrieve net_cls's classid cookie · 8d20aabe
      Daniel Borkmann 提交于
      It would be very useful to retrieve the net_cls's classid from an eBPF
      program to allow for a more fine-grained classification, it could be
      directly used or in conjunction with additional policies. I.e. docker,
      but also tooling such as cgexec, can easily run applications via net_cls
      cgroups:
      
        cgcreate -g net_cls:/foo
        echo 42 > foo/net_cls.classid
        cgexec -g net_cls:foo <prog>
      
      Thus, their respecitve classid cookie of foo can then be looked up on
      the egress path to apply further policies. The helper is desigend such
      that a non-zero value returns the cgroup id.

      enic: allow adaptive coalesce setting for msi/legacy intr · d9382bda
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan 提交于
      * Allow setting of adaptive coalescing setting for all types of interrupt.
      
      * In msi & legacy intr, we use single interrupt for rx & tx. In this case
        tx_coalesce_usecs is invalid. We should use only rx_coalesce_usecs.
        Do not display tx_coal values for msi/intx. And do not allow user to set
        this as well.
      
      * Driver supports only tx/rx_coalesce_usec and adaptive coalesce settings.
        For other values, driver does not return error. So ethtool succeeds for
        unsupported values. Introduce enic_coalesce_valid() function to validate
        the coalescing values.
      
      * If user requests for coalesce value greater than what adaptor supports,
        driver uses the max value. We should at least log this.

      Merge branch 'protodown' · 0d057881
      David S. Miller 提交于
      Anuradha Karuppiah says:
      
      ====================
      net: Introduce protodown flag.
      
      User space daemons can detect errors in the network that need to be
      notified to the switch device drivers.
      
      Drivers can react to this error state by doing a phy-down on the
      switch-port which would result in a carrier-off locally and on the directly
      connected switch. Doing that would prevent loops and black-holes in the
      network.
      
      One such use case is the multi-chassis LAG application -
      
      1. The MLAG application runs on peer switches (say Switch0 and Switch1)
         synchronizing states, forwarding entries etc. between the two
         switches over the peer-link (this is a link directly connecting the
         two switches).
      2. An MLAG election process designates one of the switches as a primary
         (for e.g. Switch0 is primary and Switch1 is secondary).
      3. The peer link plays a critical role in allowing Switch0-Switch1 to
         function as a single LAG partner to the downstream dual-connected
         servers. When the peer-link between the switches goes down we have a
         split-brain situation. Switch0 and Switch1 are no longer in sync and
         are acting independently. This can result in traffic loops and
         traffic black-holing in the network.
      4. To prevent these problems the MLAG application on the secondary
         switch phy-downs the MLAG ports on detecting the peer-link down.
         This will be seen as a carrier down on servers that are
         dual-connected to Switch0 and Switch1.
      5. Specifically a dual-connected server will see a carrier-down on the
         port connected to the MLAG secondary, Switch1, and will stop using
         that port for traffic TX. So traffic black holing is prevented.
      
      v6 to v7:
         Removed some unnecessary code in response to review comments.
      
      v5 to v6:
         Replaced proto_flags with a simple proto_down boolean attribute in
         response to Dave's comments.
      
      v4 to v5:
         Changed the ip link display format for protodown to match the set as
         recommended by Stephen.
      
      v3 to v4:
         I have moved protodown out of IFF_XXX and introduced a separate
         proto_flags field with IF_PROTOF_DOWN bit being used by apps to notify
         switch port errors. This is in response to Stephen's comments that
         adding a new IFF_XXX may break user space.
      
         I have used rocker as the sample switch driver. And to test this
         functionality I used the qemu-rocker patch that Scott sent out in
         response to the v3 posting (needed to set link up/down when phy is
         enabled/disabled).
      
      v1 to v2:
         Based on Dave's suggestion I have moved out aggregating of error bits
         across applications to a user space framework. This patch now simply
         notifies an aggregated error bit to drivers enabling them to handle
         the error gracefully.

      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-07-14
      
      This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
      
      Joe Stringer and Jesse Gross add a ndo_features_check function to ensure
      that the i40e driver does not try to offload packets that exceed 80 bytes
      in length.
      
      Anjali adds additional stats to track flow director ATR and SB current
      state and flow director flush count which will help the need for verbose
      debug logs with respect to flow director.  Also refines an error message
      to avoid confusion, so that it indicates what may have really happened
      when the init_shared_code() call possibly fails.
      
      Pawel adds new fields to the capabilities structures to handle Flex-10
      device/function capabilities which is needed to support Flex-10 configs.
      
      Jesse improves the transmit performance by added a prefetch for the
      next transmit descriptor to be used when we know there are more coming.
      
      Mitch modifies i40evf driver to handle/allow an abundance of vectors.
      Currently the driver only maps transmit and receive queues to a single
      MSI-X vector per queue if there are exactly enough vectors for this, but
      if we have too many vectors, it will fail and allocate queues to vectors
      in a suboptimal manner.  So change the condition check to allow for an
      excess number of vectors and won't use the extras.  Also update the
      driver to just return success if the user attempts to set a port VLAN on
      a VF that already has the same port VLAN configured, instead of going
      through unnecessary filter removals & adds.  Fix the MAC filters for VFs,
      which were being programmed with 0 for the VLAN value when there was no
      VLAN assigned.  Instead, we must use -1 to indicate that no VLAN is in
      use.  Fix the VF disable code, which was not properly cleaning up the VF
      and would leave the VF in an indeterminate state, so fix this by
      notifying the VF and then call the normal VF reset routine.  Fix the
      logic in the driver so that MAC filters are added and removed correctly
      and added a check for the driver's hardware MAC address so that this
      filter does not get removed incorrectly.
      
      Carolyn removes incorrect #ifdef's which should not have been added in
      the first place and with the #ifdef's removed, make the necessary
      changes in the driver to resolve compile errors.
      
      Greg updates the admin queue command header defines.
