NVGRE tunnel is used in the VM-to-VM communications. The VM packets are encapsulated in NVGRE and sent from the host. For NVGRE there are two tuples(outer sip and outer dip) in the host conntrack item. Insertion clashes are more likely to happen if the concurrent connections are sent from the VM. Signed-off-by:

At this time, set->nelems counter only increments when the set has a maximum size. All set elements decrement the counter unconditionally, this is confusing. Increment the counter unconditionally to make this symmetrical. This would also allow changing the set maximum size after set creation in a later patch. Signed-off-by: -

Its currently not allowed to perform queries on a map, for example: table t { map m { typeof ip saddr : meta mark .. chain c { ip saddr @M counter will fail, because kernel requires that userspace provides a destination register when the referenced set is a map. However, internally there is no real distinction between sets and maps, maps are just sets where each key is associated with a value. Relax this so that maps can be used just like sets. This allows to have rules that query if a given key exists without making use of the associated value. This also permits != checks which don't work for map lookups. When no destination reg is given for a map, then permit this for named maps. Data and dump paths need to be updated to consider priv->dreg_set instead of the 'set-is-a-map' check. Checks in reduce and validate callbacks are not changed, this can be relaxed later if a need arises. Signed-off-by: -

When running large numbers of pppoe connections, a bucket size of 16 may be too small and 256 may be more appropriate. This sacrifices some RAM but should result in faster processing of incoming PPPoE frames. On our systems we run upwards of 150 PPPoE connections at any point in time, and we suspect we're starting to see the effects of this small number of buckets. The legal values according to pppoe.c is anything that when 8 is divided by that results in a modulo of 0, ie, 1, 2, 4 and 8. The size of the per-underlying-interface structure is: sizeof(rwlock_t) + sizeof(pppox_sock*) * PPPOE_HASH_SIZE. Assuming a 64-bit pointer this will result in just over a 2KiB structure for PPPOE_HASH_BITS=8, which will likely result in a 4KiB allocation, which for us at least is acceptable. Not sure what the minimum allocation size is, and thus if values of 1 and 2 truly make sense. Default results in historic sizing and behaviour. Signed-off-by:

Tony Nguyen says: ==================== ice: support dynamic interrupt allocation Piotr Raczynski says: This patchset reimplements MSIX interrupt allocation logic to allow dynamic interrupt allocation after MSIX has been initially enabled. This allows current and future features to allocate and free interrupts as needed and will help to drastically decrease number of initially preallocated interrupts (even down to the API hard limit of 1). Although this patchset does not change behavior in terms of actual number of allocated interrupts during probe, it will be subject to change. First few patches prepares to introduce dynamic allocation by moving interrupt allocation code to separate file and update allocation API used in the driver to the currently preferred one. Due to the current contract between ice and irdma driver which is directly accessing msix entries allocated by ice driver, even after moving away from older pci_enable_msix_range function, still keep msix_entries array for irdma use. Next patches refactors and removes redundant code from SRIOV related logic as it also make it easier to move away from static allocation scheme. Last patches actually enables dynamic allocation of MSIX interrupts. First, introduce functions to allocate and free interrupts individually. This sets ground for the rest of the changes even if that patch still allocates the interrupts from the preallocated pool. Since this patch starts to keep interrupt details in ice_q_vector structure we can get rid of functions that calculates base vector number and register offset for the interrupt as it is equal to the interrupt index. Only keep separate register offset functions for the VF VSIs. Next, replace homegrown interrupt tracker with much simpler xarray based approach. As new API always allocate interrupts one by one, also track interrupts in the same manner. Lastly, extend the interrupt tracker to deal both with preallocated and dynamically allocated vectors and use pci_msix_alloc_irq_at and pci_msix_free_irq functions. Since not all architecture supports dynamic allocation, check it before trying to allocate a new interrupt. As previously mentioned, this patchset does not change number of initially allocated interrupts during init phase but now it can and will likely be changed. Patch 1-3 -> move code around and use newer API Patch 4-5 -> refactor and remove redundant SRIOV code Patch 6 -> allocate every interrupt individually Patch 7 -> replace homegrown interrupt tracker with xarray Patch 8 -> allow dynamic interrupt allocation --- v2: Patch 4 - simplify ice_vsi_setup_vector_base and account for num_avail_sw_msix Patch 8 - prevent q_vector leak in case vf ctrl VSI error v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230509170048.2235678-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com/ ==================== Signed-off-by:

Currently driver can only allocate interrupt vectors during init phase by calling pci_alloc_irq_vectors. Change that and make use of new pci_msix_alloc_irq_at/pci_msix_free_irq API and enable to allocate and free more interrupts after MSIX has been enabled. Since not all platforms supports dynamic allocation, check it with pci_msix_can_alloc_dyn. Extend the tracker to keep track how many interrupts are allocated initially so when all such vectors are already used, additional interrupts are automatically allocated dynamically. Remember each interrupt allocation method to then free appropriately. Since some features may require interrupts allocated dynamically add appropriate VSI flag and take it into account when allocating new interrupt. Reviewed-by:

Replace custom interrupt tracker with generic xarray data structure. Remove all code responsible for searching for a new entry with xa_alloc, which always tries to allocate at the lowes possible index. As a result driver is always using a contiguous region of the MSIX vector table. New tracker keeps ice_irq_entry entries in xarray as opaque for the rest of the driver hiding the entry details from the caller. Reviewed-by:

Currently interrupt allocations, depending on a feature are distributed in batches. Also, after allocation there is a series of operations that distributes per irq settings through that batch of interrupts. Although driver does not yet support dynamic interrupt allocation, keep allocated interrupts in a pool and add allocation abstraction logic to make code more flexible. Keep per interrupt information in the ice_q_vector structure, which yields ice_vsi::base_vector redundant. Also, as a result there are a few functions that can be removed. Reviewed-by:

Remove redundant code from ice_get_max_valid_res_idx that has no effect. ice_pf::irq_tracker is initialized during driver probe, there is no reason to check it again. Also it is not possible for pf::sriov_base_vector to be lower than the tracker length, remove WARN_ON that will never happen. Get rid of ice_get_max_valid_res_idx helper function completely since it can never return negative value. Reviewed-by:

As a result stop tracking msix_entries since with newer API entries are handled by MSIX core.
