NAPI drivers no longer need to observe a particular protocol to benefit from busy polling (CONFIG_NET_RX_BUSY_POLL=y) napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() are automatically called from core networking stack, respectively from netif_napi_add() and netif_napi_del() This patch depends on free_netdev() and netif_napi_del() being called from process context, which seems to be the norm. Drivers might still prefer to call napi_hash_del() on their own, since they might combine all the rcu grace periods into a single one, knowing their NAPI structures lifetime, while core networking stack has no idea of a possible combining. Once this patch proves to not bring serious regressions, we will cleanup drivers to either remove napi_hash_del() or provide appropriate rcu grace periods combining.

We would like to automatically provide busy polling support to all NAPI drivers, without them having to implement anything. skb_mark_napi_id() can be called from napi_gro_receive() and napi_get_frags(). Few drivers are still calling skb_mark_napi_id() because they use netif_receive_skb(). They should eventually call napi_gro_receive() instead. I will leave this to drivers maintainers.

Instead of having to implement complex ndo_busy_poll() method, drivers can simply rely on NAPI poll logic. Busy polling gains are mainly coming from polling itself, not on exact details on how we poll the device. ndo_busy_poll() if implemented can avoid touching napi state, but it adds extra synchronization between normal napi->poll() and busy poll handler, slowing down the common path (non busy polling) with extra atomic operations. In practice few drivers ever got busy poll because of the complexity. We could go one step further, and make busy polling available for all NAPI drivers, but this would require that all netif_napi_del() calls are done in process context so that we can call synchronize_rcu(). Full audit would be required. Before this is done, a driver still needs to call : - skb_mark_napi_id() for each skb provided to the stack. - napi_hash_add() and napi_hash_del() to allocate a napi_id per napi struct. - Make sure RCU grace period is respected after napi_hash_del() before memory containing napi structure is freed. Followup patch implements busy poll for mlx5 driver as an example. Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Instead of blocking BH in whole sk_busy_loop(), block them only around ->ndo_busy_poll() calls. This has many benefits. 1) allow tunneled traffic to use busy poll as well as native traffic. Tunnels handlers usually call netif_rx() and depend on net_rx_action() being run (from sofirq handler) 2) allow RFS/RPS being used (sending IPI to other cpus if needed) 3) use the 'lets burn cpu cycles' budget to do useful work (like TX completions, timers, RCU callbacks...) 4) reduce BH latencies, making busy poll a better citizen.

With moving netdev_sync_lower_features() after the .ndo_set_features calls, I neglected to verify that devices added *after* a flag had been disabled on an upper device were properly added with that flag disabled as well. This currently happens, because we exit __netdev_update_features() when we see dev->features == features for the upper dev. We can retain the optimization of leaving without calling .ndo_set_features with a bit of tweaking and a goto here.

As pointed out by Nikolay and further explained by Geert, the initial for_each_netdev_feature macro was broken, as feature would get set outside of the block of code it was intended to run in, thus only ever working for the first feature bit in the mask.

There are some netdev features, which when disabled on an upper device, such as a bonding master or a bridge, must be disabled and cannot be re-enabled on underlying devices. This is a rework of an earlier more heavy-handed appraoch, which simply disables and prevents re-enabling of netdev features listed in a new define in include/net/netdev_features.h, NETIF_F_UPPER_DISABLES. Any upper device that disables a flag in that feature mask, the disabling will propagate down the stack, and any lower device that has any upper device with one of those flags disabled should not be able to enable said flag. Initially, only LRO is included for proof of concept, and because this code effectively does the same thing as dev_disable_lro(), though it will also activate from the ethtool path, which was one of the goals here.

Turning LRO on or off on the master also turns it on or off on each of the slaves, new slaves are added with LRO in the same state as the master, and LRO can't be toggled on the slaves. Also, this should largely remove the need for dev_disable_lro(), and most, if not all, of its call sites can be replaced by simply making sure NETIF_F_LRO isn't included in the relevant device's feature flags. Note that this patch is driven by bug reports from users saying it was confusing that bonds and slaves had different settings for the same features, and while it won't be 100% in sync if a lower device doesn't support a feature like LRO, I think this is a good step in the right direction.

Drivers might call napi_disable while not holding the napi instance poll_lock. In those instances, its possible for a race condition to exist between poll_one_napi and napi_disable. That is to say, poll_one_napi only tests the NAPI_STATE_SCHED bit to see if there is work to do during a poll, and as such the following may happen: CPU0 CPU1 ndo_tx_timeout napi_poll_dev napi_disable poll_one_napi test_and_set_bit (ret 0) test_bit (ret 1) reset adapter napi_poll_routine If the adapter gets a tx timeout without a napi instance scheduled, its possible for the adapter to think it has exclusive access to the hardware (as the napi instance is now scheduled via the napi_disable call), while the netpoll code thinks there is simply work to do. The result is parallel hardware access leading to corrupt data structures in the driver, and a crash. Additionaly, there is another, more critical race between netpoll and napi_disable. The disabled napi state is actually identical to the scheduled state for a given napi instance. The implication being that, if a napi instance is disabled, a netconsole instance would see the napi state of the device as having been scheduled, and poll it, likely while the driver was dong something requiring exclusive access. In the case above, its fairly clear that not having the rings in a state ready to be polled will cause any number of crashes. The fix should be pretty easy. netpoll uses its own bit to indicate that that the napi instance is in a state of being serviced by netpoll (NAPI_STATE_NPSVC). We can just gate disabling on that bit as well as the sched bit. That should prevent netpoll from conducting a napi poll if we convert its set bit to a test_and_set_bit operation to provide mutual exclusion Change notes: V2) Remove a trailing whtiespace Resubmit with proper subject prefix V3) Clean up spacing nits Signed-off-by: NNeil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> CC: "David S.

This is immediately motivated by the bridge code that chains functions that call into netfilter. Without passing net into the okfns the bridge code would need to guess about the best expression for the network namespace to process packets in. As net is frequently one of the first things computed in continuation functions after netfilter has done it's job passing in the desired network namespace is in many cases a code simplification. To support this change the function dst_output_okfn is introduced to simplify passing dst_output as an okfn. For the moment dst_output_okfn just silently drops the struct net.

For classifiers getting invoked via tc_classify(), we always need an extra function call into tc_classify_compat(), as both are being exported as symbols and tc_classify() itself doesn't do much except handling of reclassifications when tp->classify() returned with TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY. CBQ and ATM are the only qdiscs that directly call into tc_classify_compat(), all others use tc_classify(). When tc actions are being configured out in the kernel, tc_classify() effectively does nothing besides delegating. We could spare this layer and consolidate both functions. pktgen on single CPU constantly pushing skbs directly into the netif_receive_skb() path with a dummy classifier on ingress qdisc attached, improves slightly from 22.3Mpps to 23.1Mpps.

Due to the introduction of IFF_NO_QUEUE, there is a better way for drivers to indicate that no qdisc should be attached by default. Though, the old convention can't be dropped since ignoring that setting would break drivers still using it. Instead, add a warning so out-of-tree driver maintainers get a chance to adjust their code before we finally get rid of any special handling of tx_queue_len == 0.

Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer. The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be made stackable. The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before queueing the skb. In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what. The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret metadata in a later commit.

Just before queuing skb for xmit on port, check if skb has been marked by switchdev port driver as already fordwarded by device. If so, drop skb. A non-zero skb->offload_fwd_mark field is set by the switchdev port driver/device on ingress to indicate the skb has already been forwarded by the device to egress ports with matching dev->skb_mark. The switchdev port driver would assign a non-zero dev->offload_skb_mark for each device port netdev during registration, for example.

This patch introduces the proto_down flag that can be used by user space applications to notify switch drivers that errors have been detected on the device. The switch driver can react to protodown notification by doing a phys down on the associated switch port.

Incoming packet should be either in backlog queue or in RCU read-side section. Otherwise, the final sequence of flush_backlog() and synchronize_net() may miss packets that can run without device reference: CPU 1 CPU 2 skb->dev: no reference process_backlog:__skb_dequeue process_backlog:local_irq_enable on_each_cpu for flush_backlog => IPI(hardirq): flush_backlog - packet not found in backlog CPU delayed ... synchronize_net - no ongoing RCU read-side sections netdev_run_todo, rcu_barrier: no ongoing callbacks __netif_receive_skb_core:rcu_read_lock - too late free dev process packet for freed dev Fixes: 6e583ce5 ("net: eliminate refcounting in backlog queue") Cc: Eric W.

commit 381c759d ("ipv4: Avoid crashing in ip_error") fixes a problem where processed packet comes from device with destroyed inetdev (dev->ip_ptr). This is not expected because inetdev_destroy is called in NETDEV_UNREGISTER phase and packets should not be processed after dev_close_many() and synchronize_net(). Above fix is still required because inetdev_destroy can be called for other reasons. But it shows the real problem: backlog can keep packets for long time and they do not hold reference to device. Such packets are then delivered to upper levels at the same time when device is unregistered. Calling flush_backlog after NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL still accounts all packets from backlog but before that some packets continue to be delivered to upper levels long after the synchronize_net call which is supposed to wait the last ones. Also, as Eric pointed out, processed packets, mostly from other devices, can continue to add new packets to backlog. Fix the problem by moving flush_backlog early, after the device driver is stopped and before the synchronize_net() call. Then use netif_running check to make sure we do not add more packets to backlog. We have to do it in enqueue_to_backlog context when the local IRQ is disabled. As result, after the flush_backlog and synchronize_net sequence all packets should be accounted. Thanks to Eric W. Biederman for the test script and his valuable feedback!
