RFC2710 (MLDv1), section 3.7. says: The length of a received MLD message is computed by taking the IPv6 Payload Length value and subtracting the length of any IPv6 extension headers present between the IPv6 header and the MLD message. If that length is greater than 24 octets, that indicates that there are other fields present *beyond* the fields described above, perhaps belonging to a *future backwards-compatible* version of MLD. An implementation of the version of MLD specified in this document *MUST NOT* send an MLD message longer than 24 octets and MUST ignore anything past the first 24 octets of a received MLD message. RFC3810 (MLDv2), section 8.2.1. states for *listeners* regarding presence of MLDv1 routers: In order to be compatible with MLDv1 routers, MLDv2 hosts MUST operate in version 1 compatibility mode. [...] When Host Compatibility Mode is MLDv2, a host acts using the MLDv2 protocol on that interface. When Host Compatibility Mode is MLDv1, a host acts in MLDv1 compatibility mode, using *only* the MLDv1 protocol, on that interface. [...] While section 8.3.1. specifies *router* behaviour regarding presence of MLDv1 routers: MLDv2 routers may be placed on a network where there is at least one MLDv1 router. The following requirements apply: If an MLDv1 router is present on the link, the Querier MUST use the *lowest* version of MLD present on the network. This must be administratively assured. Routers that desire to be compatible with MLDv1 MUST have a configuration option to act in MLDv1 mode; if an MLDv1 router is present on the link, the system administrator must explicitly configure all MLDv2 routers to act in MLDv1 mode. When in MLDv1 mode, the Querier MUST send periodic General Queries truncated at the Multicast Address field (i.e., 24 bytes long), and SHOULD also warn about receiving an MLDv2 Query (such warnings must be rate-limited). The Querier MUST also fill in the Maximum Response Delay in the Maximum Response Code field, i.e., the exponential algorithm described in section 5.1.3. is not used. [...] That means that we should not get queries from different versions of MLD. When there's a MLDv1 router present, MLDv2 enforces truncation and MRC == MRD (both fields are overlapping within the 24 octet range). Section 8.3.2. specifies behaviour in the presence of MLDv1 multicast address *listeners*: MLDv2 routers may be placed on a network where there are hosts that have not yet been upgraded to MLDv2. In order to be compatible with MLDv1 hosts, MLDv2 routers MUST operate in version 1 compatibility mode. MLDv2 routers keep a compatibility mode per multicast address record. The compatibility mode of a multicast address is determined from the Multicast Address Compatibility Mode variable, which can be in one of the two following states: MLDv1 or MLDv2. The Multicast Address Compatibility Mode of a multicast address record is set to MLDv1 whenever an MLDv1 Multicast Listener Report is *received* for that multicast address. At the same time, the Older Version Host Present timer for the multicast address is set to Older Version Host Present Timeout seconds. The timer is re-set whenever a new MLDv1 Report is received for that multicast address. If the Older Version Host Present timer expires, the router switches back to Multicast Address Compatibility Mode of MLDv2 for that multicast address. [...] That means, what can happen is the following scenario, that hosts can act in MLDv1 compatibility mode when they previously have received an MLDv1 query (or, simply operate in MLDv1 mode-only); and at the same time, an MLDv2 router could start up and transmits MLDv2 startup query messages while being unaware of the current operational mode. Given RFC2710, section 3.7 we would need to answer to that with an MLDv1 listener report, so that the router according to RFC3810, section 8.3.2. would receive that and internally switch to MLDv1 compatibility as well. Right now, I believe since the initial implementation of MLDv2, Linux hosts would just silently drop such MLDv2 queries instead of replying with an MLDv1 listener report, which would prevent a MLDv2 router going into fallback mode (until it receives other MLDv1 queries). Since the mapping of MRC to MRD in exactly such cases can make use of the exponential algorithm from 5.1.3, we cannot [strictly speaking] be aware in MLDv1 of the encoding in MRC, it seems also not mentioned by the RFC. Since encodings are the same up to 32767, assume in such a situation this value as a hard upper limit we would clamp. We have asked one of the RFC authors on that regard, and he mentioned that there seem not to be any implementations that make use of that exponential algorithm on startup messages. In any case, this patch fixes this MLD interoperability issue. Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <dborkman@redhat.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Changes to the cls_u32 classifier must appear atomic to the readers. Before this patch if a change is requested for both the exts and ifindex, first the ifindex is updated then the exts with tcf_exts_change(). This opens a small window where a reader can have a exts chain with an incorrect ifindex. This violates the the RCU semantics. Here we resolve this by always passing u32_set_parms() a copy of the tc_u_knode to work on and then inserting it into the hash table after the updates have been successfully applied. Tested with the following short script: #tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 99 handle 1: \ u32 divisor 256 #tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 99 \ u32 link 1: hashkey mask ffffff00 at 12 \ match ip src 192.168.8.0/2 #tc filter add dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 102 \ handle 1::10 u32 classid 1:2 ht 1: \ match ip src 192.168.8.0/8 match ip tos 0x0a 1e #tc filter change dev p3p2 parent 8001:0 protocol ip prio 102 \ handle 1::10 u32 classid 1:2 ht 1: \ match ip src 1.1.0.0/8 match ip tos 0x0b 1e CC: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> CC: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit ce93718f ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we software segment GSO frames") frees the original skb after software GSO even for dodgy gso skbs. This breaks the stream throughput from untrusted sources, since only header checking was done during software GSO instead of a true segmentation. This patch fixes this by freeing the original gso skb only when it was really segmented by software. Fixes ce93718f ("net: Don't keep around original SKB when we software segment GSO frames.")

In order for Wake-on-LAN to work properly, we query the parent network device Wake-on-LAN features and advertise those. Similarly, when configuring Wake-on-LAN on a per-port network interface, we make sure that we do not accept something the master network devices does not support. Finally, we need to maintain a bitmask of the ports enabled for Wake-on-LAN to prevent the suspend() callback from disabling a port that is used for waking up the system.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-09-18 This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf. Ethan Zhao cleans up ixgbe and ixgbevf by removing bd_number from the adapter struct because it is not longer useful. Mark fixes ixgbe where if a hardware transmit timestamp is requested, an uninitialized workqueue entry may be scheduled. Added a check for a PTP clock to avoid that. Jacob provides a number of cleanups for ixgbe. Since we may call ixgbe_acquire_msix_vectors() prior to registering our netdevice, we should not use the netdevice specific printk and use e_dev_warn() instead. Similar to how ixgbevf handles acquiring MSI-X vectors, we can return an error code instead of relying on the flag being set. This makes it more clear that we have failed to setup MSI-X mode and will make it easier to consolidate MSI-X related code into a single function. In the case of disabling DCB, it is not an error since we still can function, we just have to let the user know. So use e_dev_warn() instead of e_err(). Added warnings for other features that are disabled when we are without MSI-X support. Cleanup flags that are no longer used or needed. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This function derives the base address of the CQE from the CQE size, and calculates the real CQE context segment in it from the factor (this is like before). Before this change the code used the factor to calculate the base address of the CQE as well. The factor indicates in which segment of the cqe stride the cqe information is located. For 32-byte strides, the segment is 0, and for 64 byte strides, the segment is 1 (bytes 32..63). Using the factor was ok as long as we had only 32 and 64 byte strides. However, with larger strides, the factor is zero, and so cannot be used to calculate the base of the CQE. The helper uses the same method of CQE buffer pulling made by all other components that reads the CQE buffer (mlx4_ib driver and libmlx4).

Reduce consecutive writes to same cache line in CQs/EQs, by allowing the driver to increase the distance between entries so that each will reside in a different cache line. Until the introduction of this feature, there were two types of CQE/EQE: 1. 32B stride and context in the [0-31] segment 2. 64B stride and context in the [32-63] segment This feature introduces two additional types: 3. 128B stride and context in the [0-31] segment (128B cache line) 4. 256B stride and context in the [0-31] segment (256B cache line) Modify the mlx4_core driver to query the device for the CQE/EQE cache line stride capability and to enable that capability when the host cache line size is larger than 64 bytes (supported cache lines are 128B and 256B). The mlx4 IB driver and libmlx4 need not be aware of this change. The PF context behaviour is changed to require this change in VF drivers running on such archs.

Tom Herbert says: ==================== net: foo-over-udp (fou) This patch series implements foo-over-udp. The idea is that we can encapsulate different IP protocols in UDP packets. The rationale for this is that networking devices such as NICs and switches are usually implemented with UDP (and TCP) specific mechanims for processing. For instance, many switches and routers will implement a 5-tuple hash for UDP packets to perform Equal Cost Multipath Routing (ECMP) or RSS (on NICs). Many NICs also only provide rudimentary checksum offload (basic TCP and UDP packet), with foo-over-udp we may be able to leverage these NICs to offload checksums of tunneled packets (using checksum unnecessary conversion and eventually remote checksum offload) An example encapsulation of IPIP over FOU is diagrammed below. As illustrated, the packet overhead for FOU is the 8 byte UDP header. +------------------+ | IPv4 hdr | +------------------+ | UDP hdr | +------------------+ | IPv4 hdr | +------------------+ | TCP hdr | +------------------+ | TCP payload | +------------------+ Conceptually, FOU should be able to encapsulate any IP protocol. The FOU header (UDP hdr.) is essentially an inserted header between the IP header and transport, so in the case of TCP or UDP encapsulation the pseudo header would be based on the outer IP header and its length field must not include the UDP header. * Receive In this patch set the RX path for FOU is implemented in a new fou module. To enable FOU for a particular protocol, a UDP-FOU socket is opened to the port to receive FOU packets. The socket is mapped to the IP protocol for the packets. The XFRM mechanism used to receive encapsulated packets (udp_encap_rcv) for the port. Upon reception, the UDP is removed and packet is reinjected in the stack for the corresponding protocol associated with the socket (return -protocol from udp_encap_rcv function). GRO is provided with the appropriate fou_gro_receive and fou_gro_complete. These routines need to know the encapsulation protocol so we save that in udp_offloads structure with the port and pass it in the napi_gro_cb structure. * TX This patch series implements FOU transmit encapsulation for IPIP, GRE, and SIT. This done by some common infrastructure in ip_tunnel including an ip_tunnel_encap to perform FOU encapsulation and common configuration to enable FOU on IP tunnels. FOU is configured on existing tunnels and does not create any new interfaces. The transmit and receive paths are independent, so use of FOU may be assymetric between tunnel endpoints. * Configuration The fou module using netlink to configure FOU receive ports. The ip command can be augmented with a fou subcommand to support this. e.g. to configure FOU for IPIP on port 5555: ip fou add port 5555 ipproto 4 GRE, IPIP, and SIT have been modified with netlink commands to configure use of FOU on transmit. The "ip link" command will be augmented with an encap subcommand (for supporting various forms of secondary encapsulation). For instance, to configure an ipip tunnel with FOU on port 5555: ip link add name tun1 type ipip \ remote 192.168.1.1 local 192.168.1.2 ttl 225 \ encap fou encap-sport auto encap-dport 5555 * Notes - This patch set does not implement GSO for FOU. The UDP encapsulation code assumes TEB, so that will need to be reimplemented. - When a packet is received through FOU, the UDP header is not actually removed for the skbuf, pointers to transport header and length in the IP header are updated (like in ESP/UDP RX). A side effect is the IP header will now appear to have an incorrect checksum by an external observer (e.g. tcpdump), it will be off by sizeof UDP header. If necessary we could adjust the checksum to compensate. - Performance results are below. My expectation is that FOU should entail little overhead (clearly there is some work to do :-) ). Optimizing UDP socket lookup for encapsulation ports should help significantly. - I really don't expect/want devices to have special support for any of this. Generic checksum offload mechanisms (NETIF_HW_CSUM and use of CHECKSUM_COMPLETE) should be sufficient. RSS and flow steering is provided by commonly implemented UDP hashing. GRO/GSO seem fairly comparable with LRO/TSO already. * Performance Ran netperf TCP_RR and TCP_STREAM tests across various configurations. This was performed on bnx2x and I disabled TSO/GSO on sender to get fair comparison for FOU versus non-FOU. CPU utilization is reported for receive in TCP_STREAM.

Added netlink attrs to configure FOU encapsulation for GRE, netlink handling of these flags, and properly adjust MTU for encapsulation. ip_tunnel_encap is called from ip_tunnel_xmit to actually perform FOU encapsulation.
