When enabling the hwtstamp mode for Rx timestamping the V2 ptp event type specific modes (Delay Request and Sync) have been rolled into the V2 all event packet modes, in order to more accurately represent what hardware is doing. Hardware always timestamps the Path delay packets when a V2 mode is selected, regardless of what type was selected (in order to always support Path delay mode). However this means the user selected modes of timestamping only Sync or Delay Request is not truly supported. This patch correctly sets the mode for the hwtstamp config and returns to the user that all V2 event packets will be timestamped.

This patch fixes two minor nits from Richard Cochran. The first is a case of ambitious line wrapping that wasn't necessary. The second is to re-order the flag checks for PPS support. Previously, the hardware test was done first, and the interrupt flag test was done second. Now, test the interrupt flag and use the unlikely macro.

The flow control DV macros are used to calculate the flow control high and low thresholds. This patch annotates these macros slightly better and fixes the issues below. The macro variables are renamed LINK to _max_frame_link and TC to _max_frame_tc. This was to avoid confusion and make them more readable. It was found that people auditing the code read TC to be 'traffic class' in the 802.1Q definition instead of the max frame size of the tc. Hopefully it is clear now. This audit also found the following real deviations from the theoretical values. Fixed in this patch. * I multiplied the DV calculations by (36/25) which always evaluates to 1. This does not match the intended theoretical value of 1.44. * IXGBE_BT2KB added 1023 to account for rounding however this really should be 8 * 1023 - 1 to account for division by 8k. * x2 multiplication of max frame in DV calculations to account for updated hardware recommendations. With this patch the DV values are inline with the recommendations in the 82599 and 82598 data sheets. Its worth noting I did not see any dropped frames with flow control on in my experiments without this patch. However aligning with the hardware specs and recommendations seems like a good idea here to account for worst case scenarios.

When packets are dropped in TX path, its better to use kfree_skb() instead of dev_kfree_skb() to give proper drop_monitor events. Also move the kfree_skb() call after read_unlock() in bond_alb_xmit() and bond_xmit_activebackup() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add dev_loopback_xmit() in order to deduplicate functions ip_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv4/ip_output.c) and ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() (in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c). I was about to reinvent the wheel when I noticed that ip_dev_loopback_xmit() and ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() do exactly what I need and are not IP-only functions, but they were not available to reuse elsewhere. ip6_dev_loopback_xmit() does not have line "skb_dst_force(skb);", but I understand that this is harmless, and should be in dev_loopback_xmit().

Cloning all packets in input path have a significant cost. Use skb_header_pointer()/skb_copy_bits() instead of pskb_may_pull() so that recv_probe handlers (bond_3ad_lacpdu_recv / bond_arp_rcv / rlb_arp_recv ) dont touch input skb. bond_handle_frame() can avoid the skb_clone()/dev_kfree_skb() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Cc: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> Cc: Jiri Bohac <jbohac@suse.cz> Cc: Nicolas de Pesloüan <nicolas.2p.debian@free.fr> Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Signed-off-by: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

In the transmit path of the bonding driver, skb->cb is used to stash the skb->queue_mapping so that the bonding device can set its own queue mapping. This value becomes corrupted since the skb->cb is also used in __dev_xmit_skb. When transmitting through bonding driver, bond_select_queue is called from dev_queue_xmit. In bond_select_queue the original skb->queue_mapping is copied into skb->cb (via bond_queue_mapping) and skb->queue_mapping is overwritten with the bond driver queue. Subsequently in dev_queue_xmit, __dev_xmit_skb is called which writes the packet length into skb->cb, thereby overwriting the stashed queue mappping. In bond_dev_queue_xmit (called from hard_start_xmit), the queue mapping for the skb is set to the stashed value which is now the skb length and hence is an invalid queue for the slave device. If we want to save skb->queue_mapping into skb->cb[], best place is to add a field in struct qdisc_skb_cb, to make sure it wont conflict with other layers (eg : Qdiscc, Infiniband...) This patchs also makes sure (struct qdisc_skb_cb)->data is aligned on 8 bytes : netem qdisc for example assumes it can store an u64 in it, without misalignment penalty. Note : we only have 20 bytes left in (struct qdisc_skb_cb)->data[]. The largest user is CHOKe and it fills it. Based on a previous patch from Tom Herbert.

Routing of 127/8 is tradtionally forbidden, we consider packets from that address block martian when routing and do not process corresponding ARP requests. This is a sane default but renders a huge address space practically unuseable. The RFC states that no address within the 127/8 block should ever appear on any network anywhere but it does not forbid the use of such addresses outside of the loopback device in particular. For example to address a pool of virtual guests behind a load balancer. This patch adds a new interface option 'route_localnet' enabling routing of the 127/8 address block and processing of ARP requests on a specific interface. Note that for the feature to work, the default local route covering 127/8 dev lo needs to be removed. Example: $ sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.route_localnet=1 $ ip route del 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table local $ ip addr add 127.1.0.1/16 dev eth0 $ ip route flush cache V2: Fix invalid check to auto flush cache (thanks davem) Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

lpc_eth does a copy of transmitted skbs to DMA area, without checking skb lengths, so can trigger buffer overflows : memcpy(pldat->tx_buff_v + txidx * ENET_MAXF_SIZE, skb->data, len); One way to get bigger skbs is to allow MTU changes above the 1500 limit.
