We can increase the efficiency of rx path by using buffers to receive packets then build SKBs around them just before passing into the network stack. In contrast, preallocating SKBs too early reduces CPU cache efficiency. Check if we're in NAPI context when refilling RX. Normally we're almost always running in NAPI context. Dispatch to napi_alloc_frag directly instead of relying on netdev_alloc_frag which does the same but with the overhead of local_bh_disable/enable. Tested on BCM6328 320 MHz and iperf3 -M 512 to measure packet/sec performance. Included netif_receive_skb_list and NET_IP_ALIGN optimizations.

Use netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align on newer SoCs with integrated switch (enetsw) when refilling RX. Increases packet processing performance by 30% (with netif_receive_skb_list). Non-enetsw SoCs cannot function with the extra pad so continue to use the regular netdev_alloc_skb. Tested on BCM6328 320 MHz and iperf3 -M 512 to measure packet/sec performance.

When measuring the throughput (iperf3 + TCP) while routing on a not-so-powerful device (Mediatek MT7621, 880MHz CPU), I noticed that I achieved significantly lower speeds with QMI-based modems than for example a USB LAN dongle. The CPU was saturated in all of my tests. With the dongle I got ~300 Mbit/s, while I only measured ~200 Mbit/s with the modems. All offloads, etc. were switched off for the dongle, and I configured the modems to use QMAP (16k aggregation). The tests with the dongle were performed in my local (gigabit) network, while the LTE network the modems were connected to delivers 700-800 Mbit/s. Profiling the kernel revealed the cause of the performance difference. In qmimux_rx_fixup(), an SKB is allocated for each packet contained in the URB. This SKB has too little headroom, causing the check in skb_cow() (called from ip_forward()) to fail. pskb_expand_head() is then called and the SKB is reallocated. In the output from perf, I see that a significant amount of time is spent in pskb_expand_head() + support functions. In order to ensure that the SKB has enough headroom, this commit increases the amount of memory allocated in qmimux_rx_fixup() by LL_MAX_HEADER. The reason for using LL_MAX_HEADER and not a more accurate value, is that we do not know the type of the outgoing network interface. After making this change, I achieve the same throughput with the modems as with the dongle. Signed-off-by:

Merge tag 'linux-can-next-for-5.12-20210106' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mkl/linux-can-next Marc Kleine-Budde says: ==================== pull-request: can-next 2021-01-06 The first 16 patches are by me and target the tcan4x5x SPI glue driver for the m_can CAN driver. First there are a several cleanup commits, then the SPI regmap part is converted to 8 bits per word, to make it possible to use that driver on SPI controllers that only support the 8 bit per word mode (such as the SPI cores on the raspberry pi). Oliver Hartkopp contributes a patch for the CAN_RAW protocol. The getsockopt() for CAN_RAW_FILTER is changed to return -ERANGE if the filterset does not fit into the provided user space buffer. The last two patches are by Joakim Zhang and add wakeup support to the flexcan driver for the i.MX8QM SoC. The dt-bindings docs are extended to describe the added property. * tag 'linux-can-next-for-5.12-20210106' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mkl/linux-can-next: can: flexcan: add CAN wakeup function for i.MX8QM dt-bindings: can: fsl,flexcan: add fsl,scu-index property to indicate a resource can: raw: return -ERANGE when filterset does not fit into user space buffer can: tcan4x5x: add support for half-duplex controllers can: tcan4x5x: rework SPI access can: tcan4x5x: add {wr,rd}_table can: tcan4x5x: add max_raw_{read,write} of 256 can: tcan4x5x: tcan4x5x_regmap: set reg_stride to 4 can: tcan4x5x: fix max register value can: tcan4x5x: tcan4x5x_regmap_init(): use spi as context pointer can: tcan4x5x: tcan4x5x_regmap_write(): remove not needed casts and replace 4 by sizeof can: tcan4x5x: rename regmap_spi_gather_write() -> tcan4x5x_regmap_gather_write() can: tcan4x5x: remove regmap async support can: tcan4x5x: tcan4x5x_bus: remove not needed read_flag_mask can: tcan4x5x: mark struct regmap_bus tcan4x5x_bus as constant can: tcan4x5x: move regmap code into seperate file can: tcan4x5x: rename tcan4x5x.c -> tcan4x5x-core.c can: tcan4x5x: beautify indention of tcan4x5x_of_match and tcan4x5x_id_table can: tcan4x5x: replace DEVICE_NAME by KBUILD_MODNAME ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210107094900.173046-1-mkl@pengutronix.deSigned-off-by:

The System Controller Firmware (SCFW) is a low-level system function which runs on a dedicated Cortex-M core to provide power, clock, and resource management. It exists on some i.MX8 processors. e.g. i.MX8QM (QM, QP), and i.MX8QX (QXP, DX). SCU driver manages the IPC interface between host CPU and the SCU firmware running on M4. For i.MX8QM, stop mode request is controlled by System Controller Unit(SCU) firmware, this patch introduces FLEXCAN_QUIRK_SETUP_STOP_MODE_SCFW quirk for this function. Signed-off-by:

Multiple filters (struct can_filter) can be set with the setsockopt() function, which was originally intended as a write-only operation. As getsockopt() also provides a CAN_RAW_FILTER option to read back the given filters, the caller has to provide an appropriate user space buffer. In the case this buffer is too small the getsockopt() silently truncates the filter information and gives no information about the needed space. This is safe but not convenient for the programmer. In net/core/sock.c the SO_PEERGROUPS sockopt had a similar requirement and solved it by returning -ERANGE in the case that the provided data does not fit into the given user space buffer and fills the required size into optlen, so that the caller can retry with a matching buffer length. This patch adopts this approach for CAN_RAW_FILTER getsockopt(). Reported-by:

This patch reworks the SPI access and fixes several probems: - tcan4x5x_regmap_gather_write(), tcan4x5x_regmap_read(): Do not place variable "addr" on stack and use it as buffer for SPI transfer. Buffers for SPI transfers must be allocated from DMA save memory. - tcan4x5x_regmap_gather_write(), tcan4x5x_regmap_read(): Halfe number of SPI transfers by using a single buffer + memcpy(). This improves the performance, especially on SPI controllers, which use interrupt based transfers. - Use "8" bits per word, not "32". This makes it possible to use this driver on SoCs like the Raspberry Pi, which SPI host controller drivers only support 8 bits per word. Note: this breaks half duplex only controllers. Support for them will be re-added in the next patch. Reviewed-by:

If there is a NCI command in work queue after closing the NCI device at nci_unregister_device, The NCI command timer starts at flush_workqueue function and then NCI command timeout handler would be called 5 second after flushing the NCI command work queue and destroying the queue. At that time, the timeout handler would try to use NCI command work queue that is destroyed already. it will causes the problem. To avoid this abnormal situation, change the sequence to prevent the NCI command timeout handler from being called after destroying the NCI command work queue. Signed-off-by:
