When iterating through a map, we need to find a key that does not exist in the map so map_get_next_key will give us the first key of the map. This often requires a lot of guessing in production systems. This patch makes map_get_next_key return the first key when the key pointer in the parameter is NULL.

This patch adds hardware channel APIs support between VF and PF for tunnelling configuration for the VFs. According to that configuration VFs can run VXLAN/GENEVE/GRE tunnels over it with tunnel features offloaded. Using these APIs VF can also request for UDP ports configuration to the PF, although PF and it's child VFs share the same port.

per discussion at netconf/netdev: When we have an action that is capable of branching (example a policer), we can achieve a continuation of the action graph by programming a "continue" where we find an exact replica of the same filter rule with a lower priority and the remainder of the action graph. When you have 100s of thousands of filters which require such a feature it gets very inefficient to do two lookups. This patch completes a leftover feature of action codes. Its time has come. Example below where a user labels packets with a different skbmark on ingress of a port depending on whether they have/not exceeded the configured rate. This mark is then used to make further decisions on some egress port. #rate control, very low so we can easily see the effect sudo $TC actions add action police rate 1kbit burst 90k \ conform-exceed pipe/jump 2 index 10 # skbedit index 11 will be used if the user conforms sudo $TC actions add action skbedit mark 11 ok index 11 # skbedit index 12 will be used if the user does not conform sudo $TC actions add action skbedit mark 12 ok index 12 #lets bind the user .. sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: protocol ip prio 8 u32 \ match ip dst 127.0.0.8/32 flowid 1:10 \ action police index 10 \ action skbedit index 11 \ action skbedit index 12 #run a ping -f and see what happens.. # jhs@foobar:~$ sudo $TC -s filter ls dev $ETH parent ffff: protocol ip filter pref 8 u32 filter pref 8 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1 filter pref 8 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 1:10 (rule hit 2800 success 1005) match 7f000008/ffffffff at 16 (success 1005 ) action order 1: police 0xa rate 1Kbit burst 23440b mtu 2Kb action pipe/jump 2 overhead 0b ref 2 bind 1 installed 207 sec used 122 sec Action statistics: Sent 84420 bytes 1005 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 721 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 action order 2: skbedit mark 11 pass index 11 ref 2 bind 1 installed 204 sec used 122 sec Action statistics: Sent 60564 bytes 721 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 action order 3: skbedit mark 12 pass index 12 ref 2 bind 1 installed 201 sec used 122 sec Action statistics: Sent 23856 bytes 284 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 Not bad, about 28% non-conforming packets..

commit 4fbae7d8 ("ipvlan: Introduce l3s mode") added registration of netfilter hooks via nf_register_hooks(). This API provides the illusion of 'global' netfilter hooks by placing the hooks in all current and future network namespaces. In case of ipvlan the hook appears to be only needed in the namespace that contains the ipvlan master device (i.e., usually init_net), so placing them in all namespaces is not needed. This switches ipvlan driver to pernet operations, and then only registers hooks in namespaces where a ipvlan master device is set to l3s mode. Extra care has to be taken when the master device is moved to another namespace, as we might have to 'move' the netfilter hooks too. This is done by storing the namespace the ipvlan port was created in. On REGISTER event, do (un)register operations in the old/new namespaces. This will also allow removal of the nf_register_hooks() in a future patch. Cc: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

* Added defines for TX Event FIFO Element * Adapted ndo_start_xmit function. For versions >= v3.1.x it uses the TX FIFO to optimize the data throughput. It stores the echo skb at the same index as in the M_CAN's TX FIFO. The frame's message marker is set to this index. This message marker is received in the TX Event FIFO after the message was successfully transmitted. It is used to echo the correct echo skb back to the network stack. * Added m_can_echo_tx_event function. It reads all received message markers in the TX Event FIFO and loops back the corresponding echo skbs. * ISR checks for new TX Event Entry interrupt for version >= 3.1.x.

This patch adapts the initialization of the M_CAN. So it can be used with all versions >= 3.0.x. Changes: * Added version element to m_can_priv structure to hold M_CAN version. * Renamed bittiming structs for version 3.0.x * Added new bittiming structs for version >= 3.1.x * Function alloc_m_can_dev takes 2 new arguments. The TX FIFO size and the base address of the module. * Chip configuration for CAN_CTRLMODE_LOOPBACK is changed: Enabled CCCR_MON bit. In combination with TEST_LBCK it activates the internal loopback mode. Leaving CCCR_MON '0' results in external loopback mode. * Clocks are temporarily enabled by platform_propbe function in order to allow read access to the Core Release register and the Control Register. Registers are used to detect M_CAN version and optional Non-ISO Feature. Initialization of M_CAN for version >= 3.1.x: * TX FIFO of M_CAN is used to transmit frames. The driver does not need to stop the tx queue after each frame sent. * Initialization of TX Event FIFO is added. * NON-ISO is fixed for all M_CAN versions < 3.2.x. Version 3.2.x _can_ have the NISO (Non-ISO) bit which can switch the mode of the M_CAN to Non-ISO mode. This bit does not have to be writeable. Therefore it is checked. If it is writable Non-ISO support is added to the controllers supported CAN modes. New Functions: * Function to check the Core Release version. The read value determines the behaviour of the driver. * Function to check if the NISO bit for version >= 3.2.x is implemented.

This patch adds the support of the PCAN-PCI Express FD boards made by PEAK-System, for computers using the PCI Express slot. The PCAN-PCI Express FD has one or two CAN FD channels, depending on the model. A galvanic isolation of the CAN ports protects the electronics of the card and the respective computer against disturbances of up to 500 Volts. The PCAN-PCI Express FD can be operated with ambient temperatures in a range of -40 to +85 °C. Such boards run an extented version of the CAN-FD IP running into USB CAN-FD interfaces from PEAK-System, so this patch adds several new commands and their corresponding data types to the PEAK CAN-FD common definitions header file too.

Willem de Bruijn says: ==================== virtio-net tx napi Add napi for virtio-net transmit completion processing. Changes: v2 -> v3: - convert __netif_tx_trylock to __netif_tx_lock on tx napi poll ensure that the handler always cleans, to avoid deadlock - unconditionally clean in start_xmit avoid adding an unnecessary "if (use_napi)" branch - remove virtqueue_disable_cb in patch 5/5 a noop in the common event_idx based loop - document affinity_hint_set constraint v1 -> v2: - disable by default - disable unless affinity_hint_set because cache misses add up to a third higher cycle cost, e.g., in TCP_RR tests. This is not limited to the patch that enables tx completion cleaning in rx napi. - use trylock to avoid contention between tx and rx napi - keep interrupts masked during xmit_more (new patch 5/5) this improves cycles especially for multi UDP_STREAM, which does not benefit from cleaning tx completions on rx napi. - move free_old_xmit_skbs (new patch 3/5) to avoid forward declaration not changed: - deduplicate virnet_poll_tx and virtnet_poll_txclean they look similar, but have differ too much to make it worthwhile. - delay netif_wake_subqueue for more than 2 + MAX_SKB_FRAGS evaluated, but made no difference - patch 1/5 RFC -> v1: - dropped vhost interrupt moderation patch: not needed and likely expensive at light load - remove tx napi weight - always clean all tx completions - use boolean to toggle tx-napi, instead - only clean tx in rx if tx-napi is enabled - then clean tx before rx - fix: add missing braces in virtnet_freeze_down - testing: add 4KB TCP_RR + UDP test results Based on previous patchsets by Jason Wang: [RFC V7 PATCH 0/7] enable tx interrupts for virtio-net http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1505.3/00245.html Before commit b0c39dbd ("virtio_net: don't free buffers in xmit ring") the virtio-net driver would free transmitted packets on transmission of new packets in ndo_start_xmit and, to catch the edge case when no new packet is sent, also in a timer at 10HZ. A timer can cause long stalls. VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY avoids stalls due to low free descriptor count. It does not address a stalls due to low socket SO_SNDBUF. Increasing timer frequency decreases that stall time, but increases interrupt rate and, thus, cycle count. Currently, with no timer, packets are freed only at ndo_start_xmit. Latency of consume_skb is now unbounded. To avoid a deadlock if a sock reaches SO_SNDBUF, packets are orphaned on tx. This breaks TCP small queues. Reenable TCP small queues by removing the orphan. Instead of using a timer, convert the driver to regular tx napi. This does not have the unresolved stall issue and does not have any frequency to tune. By keeping interrupts enabled by default, napi increases tx interrupt rate. VIRTIO_F_EVENT_IDX avoids sending an interrupt if one is already unacknowledged, so makes this more feasible today. Combine that with an optimization that brings interrupt rate back in line with the existing version for most workloads: Tx completion cleaning on rx interrupts elides most explicit tx interrupts by relying on the fact that many rx interrupts fire. Tested by running {1, 10, 100} {TCP, UDP} STREAM, RR, 4K_RR benchmarks from a guest to a server on the host, on an x86_64 Haswell. The guest runs 4 vCPUs pinned to 4 cores. vhost and the test server are pinned to a core each. All results are the median of 5 runs, with variance well < 10%. Used neper (github.com/google/neper) as test process. Napi increases single stream throughput, but increases cycle cost. The optimizations bring this down. The previous patchset saw a regression with UDP_STREAM, which does not benefit from cleaning tx interrupts in rx napi. This regression is now gone for 10x, 100x. Remaining difference is higher 1x TCP_STREAM, lower 1x UDP_STREAM. The latest results are with process, rx napi and tx napi affine to the same core. All numbers are lower than the previous patchset. upstream napi TCP_STREAM: 1x: Mbps 27816 39805 Gcycles 274 285 10x: Mbps 42947 42531 Gcycles 300 296 100x: Mbps 31830 28042 Gcycles 279 269 TCP_RR Latency (us): 1x: p50 21 21 p99 27 27 Gcycles 180 167 10x: p50 40 39 p99 52 52 Gcycles 214 211 100x: p50 281 241 p99 411 337 Gcycles 218 226 TCP_RR 4K: 1x: p50 28 29 p99 34 36 Gcycles 177 167 10x: p50 70 71 p99 85 134 Gcycles 213 214 100x: p50 442 611 p99 802 785 Gcycles 237 216 UDP_STREAM: 1x: Mbps 29468 26800 Gcycles 284 293 10x: Mbps 29891 29978 Gcycles 285 312 100x: Mbps 30269 30304 Gcycles 318 316 UDP_RR: 1x: p50 19 19 p99 23 23 Gcycles 180 173 10x: p50 35 40 p99 54 64 Gcycles 245 237 100x: p50 234 286 p99 484 473 Gcycles 224 214 Note that GSO is enabled, so 4K RR still translates to one packet per request. Lower throughput at 100x vs 10x can be (at least in part) explained by looking at bytes per packet sent (nstat). It likely also explains the lower throughput of 1x for some variants. upstream: N=1 bytes/pkt=16581 N=10 bytes/pkt=61513 N=100 bytes/pkt=51558 at_rx: N=1 bytes/pkt=65204 N=10 bytes/pkt=65148 N=100 bytes/pkt=56840 ==================== Acked-by: Michael S.

Tx napi mode increases the rate of transmit interrupts. Suppress some by masking interrupts while more packets are expected. The interrupts will be reenabled before the last packet is sent. This optimization reduces the througput drop with tx napi for unidirectional flows such as UDP_STREAM that do not benefit from cleaning tx completions in the the receive napi handler.
