In current scenario, when the interface is disabled we reset the XGMAC RX/TX functionality. This operation does not affects the PHY layer/SFP and which appears UP to the remote end(this behaviour is unlike GMAC). The result is remote end keeps on sending the packets which gets partly processed by XMAC and dropped. Since these are partly processed these appears as errored packets in the packet counter statistics. This patch fixes this behaviour and adds local-fault and remote-fault functionality which can be used to intimate the remote peer whenever the state of the interface changes. This patch also removes the existing hns_dsaf_xge_core_srst_by_port function which was being used to reset the RX/TX functionality at XGE Core.

Richard Cochran says: ==================== PHC frequency fine tuning This series expands the PTP Hardware Clock subsystem by adding a method that passes the frequency tuning word to the the drivers without dropping the low order bits. Keeping those bits is useful for drivers whose frequency resolution is higher than 1 ppb. The appended script (below) runs a simple demonstration of the improvement. This test needs two Intel i210 PCIe cards installed in the same PC, with their SDP0 pins connected by copper wire. Measuring the estimated offset (from the ptp4l servo) and the true offset (from the PPS) over one hour yields the following statistics. | | Est. Before | Est. After | True Before | True After | |--------+---------------+---------------+---------------+---------------| | min | -5.200000e+01 | -1.600000e+01 | -3.100000e+01 | -1.000000e+00 | | max | +5.700000e+01 | +2.500000e+01 | +8.500000e+01 | +4.000000e+01 | | pk-pk: | +1.090000e+02 | +4.100000e+01 | +1.160000e+02 | +4.100000e+01 | | mean | +6.472222e-02 | +1.277778e-02 | +2.422083e+01 | +1.826083e+01 | | stddev | +1.158006e+01 | +4.581982e+00 | +1.207708e+01 | +4.981435e+00 | Here the numbers in units of nanoseconds, and the ~20 nanosecond PPS offset is due to input/output delays on the i210's external interface logic. With the series applied, both the peak to peak error and the standard deviation improve by a factor of more than two. These two graphs show the improvement nicely. http://linuxptp.sourceforge.net/fine-tuning/fine-est.png http://linuxptp.sourceforge.net/fine-tuning/fine-tru.png ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The internal PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) interface limits the resolution for frequency adjustments to one part per billion. However, some hardware devices allow finer adjustment, and making use of the increased resolution improves synchronization measurably on such devices. This patch adds an alternative method that allows finer frequency tuning by passing the scaled ppm value to PHC drivers. This value comes from user space, and it has a resolution of about 0.015 ppb. We also deprecate the older method, anticipating its removal once existing drivers have been converted over.

Option CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_HMAC exists for HMAC support (which requires crypto dependencies). - Replace "hidden" calls to mutex_{un,}lock to direct calls. - Fix reverse xmas tree coding style. - Fix cast-from-void*'s. - Update skb->csum to account for SR modifications. - Add dst_cache in seg6_output. Segment Routing (SR) is a source routing paradigm, architecturally defined in draft-ietf-spring-segment-routing-09 [1]. The IPv6 flavor of SR is defined in draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-02 [2]. The main idea is that an SR-enabled packet contains a list of segments, which represent mandatory waypoints. Each waypoint is called a segment endpoint. The SR-enabled packet is routed normally (e.g. shortest path) between the segment endpoints. A node that inserts an SRH into a packet is called an ingress node, and a node that is the last segment endpoint is called an egress node. From an IPv6 viewpoint, an SR-enabled packet contains an IPv6 extension header, which is a Routing Header type 4, defined as follows: struct ipv6_sr_hdr { __u8 nexthdr; __u8 hdrlen; __u8 type; __u8 segments_left; __u8 first_segment; __u8 flag_1; __u8 flag_2; __u8 reserved; struct in6_addr segments[0]; }; The first 4 bytes of the SRH is consistent with the Routing Header definition in RFC 2460. The type is set to `4' (SRH). Each segment is encoded as an IPv6 address. The segments are encoded in reverse order: segments[0] is the last segment of the path, and segments[first_segment] is the first segment of the path. segments[segments_left] points to the currently active segment and segments_left is decremented at each segment endpoint. There exist two ways for a packet to receive an SRH, we call them encap mode and inline mode. In the encap mode, the packet is encapsulated in an outer IPv6 header that contains the SRH. The inner (original) packet is not modified. A virtual tunnel is thus created between the ingress node (the node that encapsulates) and the egress node (the last segment of the path). Once an encapsulated SR packet reaches the egress node, the node decapsulates the packet and performs a routing decision on the inner packet. This kind of SRH insertion is intended to use for routers that encapsulates in-transit packet. The second SRH insertion method, the inline mode, acts by directly inserting the SRH right after the IPv6 header of the original packet. For this method, if a particular flag (SR6_FLAG_CLEANUP) is set, then the penultimate segment endpoint must strip the SRH from the packet before forwarding it to the last segment endpoint. This insertion method is intended to use for endhosts, however it is also used for in-transit packets by some industry actors. Note that directly inserting extension headers may break several mechanisms such as Path MTU Discovery, IPSec AH, etc. For this reason, this insertion method is only available if CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_INLINE is enabled. Finally, the SRH may contain TLVs after the segments list. Several types of TLVs are defined, but we currently consider only the HMAC TLV. This TLV is an answer to the deprecation of the RH0 and enables to ensure the authenticity and integrity of the SRH. The HMAC text contains the flags, the first_segment index, the full list of segments, and the source address of the packet. While SR is intended to use mostly within a single administrative domain, the HMAC TLV allows to verify SR packets coming from an untrusted source. This patches series implements support for the IPv6 flavor of SR and is logically divided into the following components: (1) Data plane support (patch 01). This patch adds a function in net/ipv6/exthdrs.c to handle the Routing Header type 4. It enables the kernel to act as a segment endpoint, by supporting the following operations: decrementation of the segments_left field, cleanup flag support (removal of the SRH if we are the penultimate segment endpoint) and decapsulation of the inner packet as an egress node. (2) Control plane support (patches 02..03 and 07..09). These patches enables to insert SRH on locally emitted and/or forwarded packets, both with encap mode and with inline mode. The SRH insertion is controlled through the lightweight tunnels mechanism. Furthermore, patch 08 enables the applications to insert an SRH on a per-socket basis, through the setsockopt() system call. The mechanism to specify a per-socket Routing Header was already defined for RH0 and no special modification was performed on this side. However, the code to actually push the RH onto the packets had to be adapted for the SRH specifications. (3) HMAC support (patches 04..06). These patches adds the support of the HMAC TLV verification for the dataplane part, and generation for the control plane part. Two hashing algorithms are supported (SHA-1 as legacy and SHA-256 as required by the IETF draft), but additional algorithms can be easily supported by simply adding an entry into an array.

This patch adds the necessary functions to compute and check the HMAC signature of an SR-enabled packet. Two HMAC algorithms are supported: hmac(sha1) and hmac(sha256). In order to avoid dynamic memory allocation for each HMAC computation, a per-cpu ring buffer is allocated for this purpose. A new per-interface sysctl called seg6_require_hmac is added, allowing a user-defined policy for processing HMAC-signed SR-enabled packets. A value of -1 means that the HMAC field will always be ignored. A value of 0 means that if an HMAC field is present, its validity will be enforced (the packet is dropped is the signature is incorrect). Finally, a value of 1 means that any SR-enabled packet that does not contain an HMAC signature or whose signature is incorrect will be dropped.

This patch creates a new type of interfaceless lightweight tunnel (SEG6), enabling the encapsulation and injection of SRH within locally emitted packets and forwarded packets. >From a configuration viewpoint, a seg6 tunnel would be configured as follows: ip -6 ro ad fc00::1/128 encap seg6 mode encap segs fc42::1,fc42::2,fc42::3 dev eth0 Any packet whose destination address is fc00::1 would thus be encapsulated within an outer IPv6 header containing the SRH with three segments, and would actually be routed to the first segment of the list. If `mode inline' was specified instead of `mode encap', then the SRH would be directly inserted after the IPv6 header without outer encapsulation. The inline mode is only available if CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_INLINE is enabled. This feature was made configurable because direct header insertion may break several mechanisms such as PMTUD or IPSec AH.

This patch adds the necessary hooks and structures to provide support for SR-IPv6 control plane, essentially the Generic Netlink commands that will be used for userspace control over the Segment Routing kernel structures. The genetlink commands provide control over two different structures: tunnel source and HMAC data. The tunnel source is the source address that will be used by default when encapsulating packets into an outer IPv6 header + SRH. If the tunnel source is set to :: then an address of the outgoing interface will be selected as the source. The HMAC commands currently just return ENOTSUPP and will be implemented in a future patch.

Receiving a GSO packet in dev_gro_receive() is not uncommon in stacked devices, or devices partially implementing LRO/GRO like bnx2x. GRO is implementing the aggregation the device was not able to do itself. Current code causes reorders, like in following case : For a given flow where sender sent 3 packets P1,P2,P3,P4 Receiver might receive P1 as a single packet, stored in GRO engine. Then P2-P4 are received as a single GSO packet, immediately given to upper stack, while P1 is held in GRO engine. This patch will make sure P1 is given to upper stack, then P2-P4 immediately after.
