      net/tls: Add support for async encryption of records for performance · a42055e8
      Vakul Garg authored
      In current implementation, tls records are encrypted & transmitted
      serially. Till the time the previously submitted user data is encrypted,
      the implementation waits and on finish starts transmitting the record.
      This approach of encrypt-one record at a time is inefficient when
      asynchronous crypto accelerators are used. For each record, there are
      overheads of interrupts, driver softIRQ scheduling etc. Also the crypto
      accelerator sits idle most of time while an encrypted record's pages are
      handed over to tcp stack for transmission.
      
      This patch enables encryption of multiple records in parallel when an
      async capable crypto accelerator is present in system. This is achieved
      by allowing the user space application to send more data using sendmsg()
      even while previously issued data is being processed by crypto
      accelerator. This requires returning the control back to user space
      application after submitting encryption request to accelerator. This
      also means that zero-copy mode of encryption cannot be used with async
      accelerator as we must be done with user space application buffer before
      returning from sendmsg().
      
      There can be multiple records in flight to/from the accelerator. Each of
      the record is represented by 'struct tls_rec'. This is used to store the
      memory pages for the record.
      
      After the records are encrypted, they are added in a linked list called
      tx_ready_list which contains encrypted tls records sorted as per tls
      sequence number. The records from tx_ready_list are transmitted using a
      newly introduced function called tls_tx_records(). The tx_ready_list is
      polled for any record ready to be transmitted in sendmsg(), sendpage()
      after initiating encryption of new tls records. This achieves parallel
      encryption and transmission of records when async accelerator is
      present.
      
      There could be situation when crypto accelerator completes encryption
      later than polling of tx_ready_list by sendmsg()/sendpage(). Therefore
      we need a deferred work context to be able to transmit records from
      tx_ready_list. The deferred work context gets scheduled if applications
      are not sending much data through the socket. If the applications issue
      sendmsg()/sendpage() in quick succession, then the scheduling of
      tx_work_handler gets cancelled as the tx_ready_list would be polled from
      application's context itself. This saves scheduling overhead of deferred
      work.
      
      The patch also brings some side benefit. We are able to get rid of the
      concept of CLOSED record. This is because the records once closed are
      either encrypted and then placed into tx_ready_list or if encryption
      fails, the socket error is set. This simplifies the kernel tls
      sendpath. However since tls_device.c is still using macros, accessory
      functions for CLOSED records have been retained.

      Merge branch 'mlxsw-Further-MC-awareness-configuration' · cab9572a

      ====================
      mlxsw: Further MC-awareness configuration
      
      Petr says:
      
      Due to an issue in Spectrum chips, when unicast traffic shares the same
      queue as BUM traffic, and there is congestion, the BUM traffic is
      admitted to the queue anyway, thus pushing out all UC traffic. In order
      to give unicast traffic precedence over BUM traffic, multicast-aware
      mode is now configured on all ports. Under MC-aware mode, egress TCs
      8..15 are used for BUM traffic, which has its own dedicated pool.
      
      This patch set improves the way that the MC pool and the higher-order
      TCs are integrated into the system.
      
      In patch #1, shaper at the higher TCs is configured to the same value
      that it has by default. It's better to have the corresponding artifact
      in the code explicitly.
      
      The 8 following patches gradually extend the devlink handling in mlxsw
      to support the extra TCs and the new MC pool.
      
      Patch #2 changes the way that pools are indexed in mlxsw. Instead of
      using (FW index, direction) tuple to identify the pool and the
      associated cache, mlxsw now uses devlink index. This change is necessary
      because the new pool 15 is not contiguously adjacent to the
      currently-used pools 0..3, and because it's only relevant on egress.
      Using devlink index relaxes the requirement for symmetry and adjacency
      imposed by using FW indexing.
      
      In patch #3, the assumption that number of ingress TCs matches that of
      egress TCs is relaxed to allow exposition of egress TCs 8..15.
      
      In patches #4, #5 and #6, support for infinite quotas is introduced.
      Infinite quotas are reported as taking all the memory in the system, but
      actually use a mechanism where the infinity is configured explicitly.
      
      In patches #7 and #8, support for configuring static pool sizes in
      introduced. Statically-sized pools have been supported for a while now,
      but during initialization, all pools have dynamic size. The patches
      allow there to be a mix of by-default static and dynamic pools.
      
      In patches #9 and #10, pool 15 resp. per-priority MC quotas are
      explicitly configured to be in sync with the current recommendation for
      handling BUM traffic in Spectrum chips.
      
      In the following 3 patches, an mlxsw-specific selftest is added to test
      the MC-awareness configuration.
      
      First in patches #11 and #12, lib.sh is extended with functions to
      collect ethtool stats, and to manage port MTU.
      
      Then in patch #13 the selftest itself is added.

      selftests: mlxsw: Add a test for UC behavior under MC flood · b5638d46
      Petr Machata authored
      A so-called "MC-aware" mode has recently been enabled in mlxsw. In
      MC-aware mode, BUM traffic is handled in a special way so that when a
      switch is flooded with BUM, UC performance isn't unduly impacted.
      Without enablement of this mode, a stream of BUM traffic can cause
      sustained UC throughput drop in excess of 99 %.
      
      Add a test for this behavior. Compare how much UC throughput degrades as
      a stream of broadcast frames floods the switch. A minimal degradation is
      tolerated to cover for glitches in traffic injection performance.

      mlxsw: spectrum_buffers: Allow configuration of static pools · 5be3637e
      Petr Machata authored
      Some pools configured through the sb_pm entries may have by default
      static size. The MC pool is now not explicitly configured, however it
      gets configured as static implicitly by 0-initializing sb->prs, and a
      follow-up patch adds an explicit configuration to the same effect.
      
      To support this, pass max_buff taken from sb_pm and sb_cm entries
      through cell conversion before handing it to mlxsw_sp_sb_pm_write(), if
      the pool that the sb_pm entry configures is statically-sized.
      
      To keep current behavior, update mlxsw_sp_sb_cms_egress[] to denote
      buffer sizes in bytes (assuming Spectrum 1 cell sizes, which the
      original code assumed as well) instead of cells. Note that a follow-up
      patch changes this to infinite size.
      
      Also tweak a comment at SBMM configuration to remain true now that
      statically-sized pools exist.

      mlxsw: spectrum_buffers: Pass SBPM min_size in cells · 41057e28
      Petr Machata authored
      The SBPM register configures the shared buffer allocation and
      configuration per port and pool. The min_buff value is the buffer size
      dedicated to this single function, and is configured in cells.
      Currently, all sb_pm entries have 0 for min_buff, and therefore the
      actual unit is immaterial. However, in a follow-up patch we want to add
      entries with non-zero minimum.
      
      Therefore pass the min_buff from the sb_pm table through the cell
      conversion before handing it over to mlxsw_sp_sb_pm_write().
