The commit shipped with two bugs: fl4->fl4_icmp_type = flkeys->icmp.type; fl4->fl4_icmp_type = flkeys->icmp.code; ~~~~ should have been "code". But the more severe bug is that I got fooled by flowi member defines: fl4_icmp_type, fl4_gre_key and fl4_dport share the same union/address. Fix typo and make gre/icmp key setting depend on the l4 protocol.

A recent patch changed xfrm6_udp_encap_rcv to not free the skb itself anymore but fogot the case where xfrm4_udp_encap_rcv is called subsequently. Fix this by moving the call to xfrm4_udp_encap_rcv from __xfrm6_udp_encap_rcv to xfrm6_udp_encap_rcv.

Florian Westphal says: ============ Remove the ipv4+ipv6 session decode functions and use generic flow dissector to populate the flowi for the policy lookup. Changes since v2: - first patch broke CONFIG_XFRM=n builds Changes since v1: - Can't use skb_flow_dissect(), we might see skbs that have neither skb->sk nor skb->dev set. Flow dissector WARN()s in this case, it tries to check for a bpf program assigned in that net namespace. Add a preparation patch to pass down 'struct net' in xfrm_decode_session so its available for use in patch 3. Changes since RFC: - Drop mobility header support. I don't think that anyone uses this. MOBIKE doesn't appear to need this either. - Drop fl6->flowlabel assignment, original code leaves it as 0. There is no reason for this change other than to remove code. ============ Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>

xfrm needs to populate ipv4/v6 flow struct for route lookup. In the past there were several bugs in this code: 1. callers that forget to reload header pointers after xfrm_decode_session() (it may pull headers). 2. bugs in decoding where accesses past skb->data occurred. Meanwhile network core gained a packet dissector as well. This switches xfrm to the flow dissector. Changes since RFC: Drop ipv6 mobiliy header support, AFAIU noone uses this. Drop extraction of flowlabel, replaced code doesn't set it either.

Preparation patch, extra arg is not used. No functional changes intended. This is needed to replace the xfrm session decode functions with the flow dissector. skb_flow_dissect() cannot be used as-is, because it attempts to deduce the 'struct net' to use for bpf program fetch from skb->sk or skb->dev, but xfrm code path can see skbs that have neither sk or dev filled in. So either flow dissector needs to try harder, e.g. by also trying skb->dst->dev, or we have to pass the struct net explicitly. Passing the struct net doesn't look too bad to me, most places already have it available or can derive it from the output device.

Antony Antony says: ============ I have added how to enable this feature, and more description to the second patch. Here is copy of that. xfrm: Support GRO for IPv4i & IPv6 ESP in UDP encapsulation This patchset enables the GRO codepath for ESP in UDP encapsulated packets. Decapsulation happens at L2 and saves a full round through the stack for each packet. This is also needed to support HW offload for ESP in UDP encapsulation. Enabling this would imporove performance for ESP in UDP datapath, i.e IPsec with NAT in between. Our initial tests show 20% improvement. By default GRP for ESP-in-UDP is disabled for UDP sockets. To enable this feature for an ESP socket, the following two options need to be set: 1. enable ESP-in-UDP: (this is already set by an IKE daemon). int type = UDP_ENCAP_ESPINUDP; setsockopt(fd, SOL_UDP, UDP_ENCAP, &type, sizeof(type)); 2. To enable GRO for ESP in UDP socket: type = true; setsockopt(fd, SOL_UDP, UDP_GRO, &type, sizeof(type)); Enabling ESP-in-UDP has the side effect of preventing the Linux stack from seeing ESP packets at the L3 (when ESP OFFLOAD is disabled), as packets are immediately decapsulated from UDP and decrypted. This change may affect nftable rules that match on ESP packets at L3. Also tcpdump won't see the ESP packet. Developers/admins are advised to review and adapt any nftable rules accordingly before enabling this feature to prevent potential rule breakage. Also tcpdump will not see from ESP packets from a ESP in UDP flow when this is enabled. Initial, a quick test showed performance difference of about 20% impromvent on the receiver, when using iperf, tcp flow, over ESP in UDP. ============ Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>

When processing a TSO we may have frags spread across several descriptors, and the total count of frags in one skb may exceed our per descriptor IONIC_MAX_FRAGS: this is fine as long as each descriptor has fewer frags than the limit. Since the skb could have as many as MAX_SKB_FRAGS, and the first descriptor is where we track and map the frag buffers, we need to be sure we can map buffers for all of the frags plus the TSO header in the first descriptor's buffer array.

There are some cases where an skb carries more frags than the number of SGs that ionic can support per descriptor - this forces the driver to linearize the skb. However, if this is a TSO packet that is going to become multiple descriptors (one per MTU-sized packet) and spread the frags across them, this time-consuming linearization is likely not necessary. We scan the frag list and count up the number of SGs that would be created for each descriptor that would be generated, and only linearize if we hit the SG limit on a descriptor. In most cases, we won't even get to the frag list scan, so this doesn't affect typical traffic. Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@amd.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Karol adds retrying to acquire hardware semaphore for cross-timestamping and avoids writing to timestamp registers on E822 devices. He also renames some defines to be more clear and align with the data sheet. Additionally, a range check is moved in order to reduce duplicated code. Jake adds cross-timestamping support for E823 devices as well as adds checks against netlist to aid in determining support for GNSS. He also corrects improper pin assignment for certain E810-T devices and refactors/cleanups PTP related code such as adding PHY model to ease checks for different needed implementations, removing unneeded EXTTS flag, and adding macro to check for source timer owner. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The .remove() callback for a platform driver returns an int which makes many driver authors wrongly assume it's possible to do error handling by returning an error code. However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant. Signed-off-by: Uwe Kleine-König <u.kleine-koenig@pengutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

However the value returned is ignored (apart from emitting a warning) and this typically results in resource leaks. To improve here there is a quest to make the remove callback return void. In the first step of this quest all drivers are converted to .remove_new() which already returns void. Eventually after all drivers are converted, .remove_new() is renamed to .remove(). Trivially convert this driver from always returning zero in the remove callback to the void returning variant.
