Packets destined to offloaded netdevs will be classified to FIDs in the device and flooded in case of BUM. The flooding table used is of type FID-offset, which allows one to create different flooding domains for different FIDs and specify the offset in the flooding table for each FID (not necessarily equal to FID or VID). Add support for this flooding table type, by exposing the configuration of the number of tables from this type and their size. Signed-off-by:

In the newly introduced Spectrum switch ASIC, packets destined to not offloaded netdevs will be classified to special FIDs (vFIDs) in the device and flooded to the CPU port. The flooding table used is of type per-FID, which allows one to create different flooding domains for different vFIDs. While using a simple single-entry flood table is certainly sufficient at this point, we do plan to offload 802.1D bridges involving VLAN interfaces, thus making this change necessary. Add support for this flooding table type, by exposing the configuration of the number of tables from this type and their size. Signed-off-by:

This newly introduced netdevice notifier is called before actual change upper happens. That provides a possibility for notifier handlers to know upper change will happen and react to it, including possibility to forbid the change. That is valuable for drivers which can check if the upper device linkage is supported and forbid that in case it is not. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-10-16 This series contains updates to e1000, e1000e, igb, igbvf, ixgbe, ixgbevf, i40e, i40evf and fm10k. Alex Duyck fixes the polling routine for i40e/i40evf were the NAPI budget for receive cleanup was being rounded up to 1 but the netpoll call was expecting no Rx to be processed as the budget passed was 0. Also cleaned up IN_NETPOLL flag that was not adding any value due to the receive cleanup was handled in NAPI. Added support for netpoll for i40evf as well. Jesse updates all of our drivers to use napi_complete_done() instead of napi_complete(), which allows us to use /sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout. Added ethtool support to control and report the new Interrupt Limit register, since the XL710 hardware has a different interrupt moderation design that can support a limit of total interrupts per second per vector. Shannon cleans up startup log entries to cut down the number by putting a couple behind debug flags and combining others into single line. Added support to enable/disable printing VEB statistics via ethtool. Jingjing fixes a compile issue by adding const to functions that return strings that are not going to be modified. Greg Rose cleans up defines that were not used and were causing customer confusion. Greg Bowers adds support for setting a new bit in the Set Local LLDP MIB admin queue command Type field. Mitch fixes an issue where vlan_features field was set to the same value as netdev features field, but before the features were actually being set up, leaving the vlan_features empty. Resolve the issue by setting up the netdev features first, then mask out the VLAN feature bits when assigning vlan_features. Fixed VF init timing, where in some instances the VFs would fail to initialize the first time you loaded the driver. To correct this, increased the delay time for the init task and wait longer before giving up. v2: fix missing space in function header comment in patch 3, based on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov. ==================== Signed-off-by:

With 64 VFs, we can easily overwhelm the AQ on the PF if we have too low a limit on the number of AQ requests. This leads to ARQ overflow errors, and occasionally VFs that fail to initialize. Since we really only hit this condition on initial VF driver load, the requests that we process are lightweight, so this extra work doesn't cause problems for the PF driver.

On some devices, in some systems, in some configurations, the VFs would fail to initialize the first time you loaded the driver. To correct this, increase the delay time for the init task slightly, and wait longer before giving up. If we enable VFs and load the VF driver in the same kernel as the PF driver, we can totally overwhelm the PF driver with AQ requests because all of the instances try to initialize at the same time. To help alleviate this, stagger the initial scheduling of the init task using the PCIe function as a multiplier. We mask off the function to only three bits so no instance has to wait too long. With these two changes, initializing 128 VFs on a single device goes from four minutes to just a few seconds. Change-ID: If3d8720c1c4e838ab36d8781d9ec295a62380936 Signed-off-by:

The vlan_features field was correctly being set to the same value as the netdev features field. However, this was being done before the features were actually being set up, leaving the vlan_features empty. Also, after a reset, vlan_features will be incorrectly assigned the previous netdev feature flags, which can contain VLAN feature bits. This makes the VLAN code angry and will cause a stack dump. To fix these issues, set up the netdev features first, then mask out the VLAN feature bits when assigning vlan_features. Change-ID: Ib0548869dc83cf6a841cb8697dd94c12359ba4d2 Signed-off-by:

When the number of invalid messages from a VF is exceeded, the VF will be disabled, due to the invalid messages. This happens if other VF drivers (like DPDK) send a message through the driver's mailbox (aka virtchannel) interface, but the message is not supported by the i40e pf driver, such as CONFIG_PROMISCUOUS_MODE. This patch changes the num_invalid_msgs in struct i40e_vf to record the continuous invalid msgs, and it will be reset when a valid msg is received.

The XL710 hardware has a different interrupt moderation design that can support a limit of total interrupts per second per vector, in addition to the "number of interrupts per second" controls already established in the driver. This combination of hardware features allows us to set very low default latency settings but minimize the total CPU utilization by not making too many interrupts, should the user desire. The current driver implementation is still enabling the dynamic moderation in the driver, and only using the rx/tx-usecs limit in ethtool to limit the interrupt rate per second, by default. The new code implemented in this patch 2) adds init/use of the new "Interrupt Limit" register 3) adds ethtool knob to control/report the limits above Usage is ethtool -C ethx rx-usecs-high <value> Where <value> is number of microseconds to create a rate of 1/N interrupts per second, regardless of rx-usecs or tx-usecs values. Since there is a credit based scheme in the hardware, the rx-usecs and tx-usecs can be configured for very low latency for short bursts, but once the credit runs out the refill rate on the credits is limited by rx-usecs-high.

Allow the nvmupdate application to decide when a read or write error should be exposed to the user. Since the application needs to use write probes to find the ReadOnly sections on a potentially unknown NVM version in the HW and read probes to check the status of the last write, some error messages are expected, but need not be shown to the users. The driver doesn't know which are ignorable from real errors, so needs to let the application make the decision. Change-ID: I78fca8ab672bede11c10c820b83c26adfd536d03 Signed-off-by:

The code in i40e and i40evf is using an "IN_NETPOLL" flag that has never added any value due to the fact that the Rx clean-up is handled in NAPI. As such the flag was set, the queue was scheduled via NAPI, and then polled from the netpoll controller and if any Rx packets were processed the were processed in the wrong context. In addition the flag itself just added an unneeded conditional to the hot-path so it can safely be dropped and save us a few instructions. Signed-off-by:

Jon Paul Maloy authored
The change made in the previous commit revealed a small flaw in the way the node FSM is updated. When the function tipc_node_link_down() is called for the last link to a node, we should check whether this was caused by a local reset or by a received RESET message from the peer. In the latter case, we can directly issue a PEER_LOST_CONTACT_EVT to the node FSM, so that it is ready to re-establish contact. If this is not done, the peer node will sometimes have to go through a second establish cycle before the link becomes stable. We fix this in this commit by conditionally issuing the mentioned event in the function tipc_node_link_down(). We also move LINK_RESET FSM even away from the link_reset() function and into the caller function, partially because it is easier to follow the code when state changes are gathered at a limited number of locations, partially because there will be cases in future commits where we don't want the link to go RESET mode when link_reset() is called.

When a link is taken down because of a node local event, such as disabling of a bearer or an interface, we currently leave it to the peer node to discover the broken communication. The default time for such failure discovery is 1.5-2 seconds. If we instead allow the terminating link endpoint to send out a RESET message at the moment it is reset, we can achieve the impression that both endpoints are going down instantly. Since this is a very common scenario, we find it worthwhile to make this small modification. Apart from letting the link produce the said message, we also have to ensure that the interface is able to transmit it before TIPC is detached. We do this by performing the disabling of a bearer in three steps: 1) Disable reception of TIPC packets from the interface in question. 2) Take down the links, while allowing them so send out a RESET message. 3) Disable transmission of TIPC packets on the interface. Apart from this, we now have to react on the NETDEV_GOING_DOWN event, instead of as currently the NEDEV_DOWN event, to ensure that such transmission is possible during the teardown phase.

Link establishing, just like link teardown, is a non-atomic action, in the sense that discovering that conditions are right to establish a link, and the actual adding of the link to one of the node's send slots is done in two different lock contexts. The link FSM is designed to help bridging the gap between the two contexts in a safe manner. We have now discovered a weakness in the implementaton of this FSM. Because we directly let the link go from state LINK_ESTABLISHING to state LINK_ESTABLISHED already in the first lock context, we are unable to distinguish between a fully established link, i.e., a link that has been added to its slot, and a link that has not yet reached the second lock context. It may hence happen that a manual intervention, e.g., when disabling an interface, causes the function tipc_node_link_down() to try removing the link from the node slots, decrementing its active link counter etc, although the link was never added there in the first place. We solve this by delaying the actual state change until we reach the second lock context, inside the function tipc_node_link_up(). This makes it possible for potentail callers of __tipc_node_link_down() to know if they should proceed or not, and the problem is solved. Unforunately, the situation described above also has a second problem. Since there by necessity is a tipc_node_link_up() call pending once the node lock has been released, we must defuse that call by setting the link back from LINK_ESTABLISHING to LINK_RESET state. This forces us to make a slight modification to the link FSM, which will now look as follows. +------------------------------------+ |RESET_EVT | | | | +--------------+ | +-----------------| SYNCHING |-----------------+ | |FAILURE_EVT +--------------+ PEER_RESET_EVT| | | A | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |SYNCH_ |SYNCH_ | | | |BEGIN_EVT |END_EVT | | | | | | | V | V V | +-------------+ +--------------+ +------------+ | | RESETTING |<---------| ESTABLISHED |--------->| PEER_RESET | | +-------------+ FAILURE_ +--------------+ PEER_ +------------+ | | EVT | A RESET_EVT | | | | | | | | +----------------+ | | | RESET_EVT| |RESET_EVT | | | | | | | | | | |ESTABLISH_EVT | | | | +-------------+ | | | | | | RESET_EVT | | | | | | | | | | | V V V | | | | +-------------+ +--------------+ RESET_EVT| +--->| RESET |--------->| ESTABLISHING |<----------------+ +-------------+ PEER_ +--------------+ | A RESET_EVT | | | | | | | |FAILOVER_ |FAILOVER_ |FAILOVER_ |BEGIN_EVT |END_EVT |BEGIN_EVT | | | V | | +-------------+ | | FAILINGOVER |<----------------+ +-------------+ Signed-off-by:

After the previous commits, we are guaranteed that no packets of type LINK_PROTOCOL or with illegal sequence numbers will be attempted added to the link deferred queue. This makes it possible to make some simplifications to the sorting algorithm in the function tipc_skb_queue_sorted(). We also alter the function so that it will drop packets if one with the same seqeunce number is already present in the queue. This is necessary because we have identified weird packet sequences, involving duplicate packets, where a legitimate in-sequence packet may advance to the head of the queue without being detected and de-queued. Finally, we make this function outline, since it will now be called only in exceptional cases. Signed-off-by:

The sequence number of an incoming packet is currently only checked for less than, equality to, or bigger than the next expected number, meaning that the receive window in practice becomes one half sequence number cycle, or U16_MAX/2. This does not make sense, and may not even be safe if there are extreme delays in the network. Any packet sent by the peer during the ongoing cycle must belong inside his current send window, or should otherwise be dropped if possible. Since a link endpoint cannot know its peer's current send window, it has to base this sanity check on a worst-case assumption, i.e., that the peer is using a maximum sized window of 8191 packets. Using this assumption, we now add a check that the sequence number is not bigger than next_expected + TIPC_MAX_LINK_WIN. We also re-order the checks done, so that the receive window test is performed before the gap test. This way, we are guaranteed that no packet with illegal sequence numbers are ever added to the deferred queue. Signed-off-by:

Currently, all packets received in tipc_link_rcv() are unconditionally added to the packet deferred queue, whereafter that queue is walked and all its buffers evaluated for delivery. This is both non-optimal and and makes the queue sorting function unnecessary complex. This commit changes the loop so that an arrived packet is evaluated first, and added to the deferred queue only when a sequence number gap is discovered. A non-empty deferred queue is walked until it is empty or until its head's sequence number doesn't fit. Signed-off-by:

During packet reception, the function tipc_link_rcv() adds its accepted packets to a temporary buffer queue, before finally splicing this queue into the lock protected input queue that will be delivered up to the socket layer. The purpose is to reduce potential contention on the input queue lock. However, since the vast majority of packets arrive in sequence, they will anyway be added one by one to the input queue, and the use of the temporary queue becomes a sub-optimization. The only case where this queue makes sense is when unpacking buffers from a bundle packet; here we want to avoid dozens of small buffers to be added individually to the lock-protected input queue in a tight loop. In this commit, we remove the general usage of the temporary queue, and keep it only for the packet unbundling case. Signed-off-by:

If using a sixtofour device on top of a bonding device, skb segmentation of TCP traffic is done right before calling bonding xmit, because bonding only enables TSO for IPv4. This patch improves single flow performance by about 120 % on my hosts, because segmentation is deferred right before calling slave xmit. Signed-off-by:
