TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option or sysctl was added in linux-3.12 as a step to enable bigger tcp sndbuf limits. It works reasonably well, but the following happens : Once the limit is reached, TCP stack generates an [E]POLLOUT event for every incoming ACK packet. This causes a high number of context switches. This patch implements the strategy David Miller added in sock_def_write_space() : - If TCP socket has a notsent_lowat constraint of X bytes, allow sendmsg() to fill up to X bytes, but send [E]POLLOUT only if number of notsent bytes is below X/2 This considerably reduces TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT overhead, while allowing to keep the pipe full.

Ido Schimmel says: ==================== mlxsw: Add one-armed router support Up until now, when a packet was routed by the ASIC through the same router interface (RIF) from which it ingressed from, the ASIC passed the sole copy of the packet to the kernel. This allowed the kernel to route the packet and also potentially generate an ICMP redirect. There are scenarios (e.g., "one-armed router") where packets are intentionally routed this way and are therefore not deemed as exceptions. In such scenarios the current method of trapping packets to the CPU is problematic, as it results in major packet loss. This patchset solves the problem by having the ASIC forward the packet, but also send a copy to the CPU, which gives the kernel the opportunity to generate required exceptions. To prevent the kernel from forwarding such packets again, the driver marks them with 'offload_l3_fwd_mark', which causes the kernel to consume them in ip{,6}_forward_finish(). Patch #1 renames 'offload_mr_fwd_mark' to 'offload_l3_fwd_mark'. When set, the field indicates that a packet was already forwarded in L3 (unicast / multicast) by a capable device. Patch #2 teaches the kernel to consume unicast packets that have 'offload_l3_fwd_mark' set. Patch #3 changes mlxsw to mirror loopbacked (iRIF == eRIF) packets, instead of trapping them. Patch #4 adds a test case for above mentioned scenario. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Ido Schimmel authored
When the ASIC detects that a unicast packet is routed through the same router interface (RIF) from which it ingressed (iRIF == eRIF), it raises a trap called loopback error (LBERROR). Thus far, this trap was configured to send a sole copy of the packet to the CPU so that ICMP redirect packets could be potentially generated by the kernel. This is problematic as the CPU cannot forward packets at 3.2Tb/s and there are scenarios (e.g., "one-armed router") where iRIF == eRIF is not an exception. Solve this by changing the trap to send a copy of the packet to the CPU. To prevent the kernel from forwarding the packet again, it is marked with 'offload_l3_fwd_mark'. The trap is configured in a trap group of its own with a dedicated policer in order not to prevent packets trapped by other traps from reaching the CPU.

Packets marked with 'offload_l3_fwd_mark' were already forwarded by a capable device and should not be forwarded again by the kernel. Therefore, have the kernel consume them. The check is performed in ip{,6}_forward_finish() in order to allow the kernel to process such packets in ip{,6}_forward() and generate required exceptions. For example, ICMP redirects.

Commit abf4bb6b ("skbuff: Add the offload_mr_fwd_mark field") added the 'offload_mr_fwd_mark' field to indicate that a packet has already undergone L3 multicast routing by a capable device. The field is used to prevent the kernel from forwarding a packet through a netdev through which the device has already forwarded the packet. Currently, no unicast packet is routed by both the device and the kernel, but this is about to change by subsequent patches and we need to be able to mark such packets, so that they will no be forwarded twice. Instead of adding yet another field to 'struct sk_buff', we can just rename 'offload_mr_fwd_mark' to 'offload_l3_fwd_mark', as a packet either has a multicast or a unicast destination IP. While at it, add a comment about both 'offload_fwd_mark' and 'offload_l3_fwd_mark'. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The following set of NPC registers allow the driver to configure NPC to generate different key value schemes to compare against packet payload in MCAM search. NPC_AF_INTF(0..1)_KEX_CFG NPC_AF_KEX_LDATA(0..1)_FLAGS_CFG NPC_AF_INTF(0..1)_LID(0..7)_LT(0..15)_LD(0..1)_CFG NPC_AF_INTF(0..1)_LDATA(0..1)_FLAGS(0..15)_CFG Currently, the AF driver populates these registers to configure the default values to address the most common use cases such as key generation for channel number + DMAC. The secure firmware stores different configuration value of these registers to enable different NPC use case along with the name for the lookup. Patch loads profile binary from secure firmware over the exiting CGX mailbox interface and apply the profile. AF driver shall fall back to the default configuration in case of any errors. The AF consumer driver can know the selected profile on response to NPC_GET_KEX_CFG mailbox by introducing mkex_pfl_name in the struct npc_get_kex_cfg_rsp.

TL1 is the root node in the scheduling hierarchy and it is a global resource with a limited number. This patch introduces restriction and validation on the allocation of the TL1 nodes for the effective resource sharing across the AF consumers. - Limit TL1 allocation to 2 per lmac. One could be for the normal link and one for IEEE802.3br express link (Express Send DMA). Effectively all the VF's of an RVU PF(lmac) share the two TL1 schqs. - TL1 cannot be freed once allocated. - Allow VF's to only apply default config to TL1 if not already applied. PF's can always overwrite the TL1 config. - Consider NIX_AQ_INSTOP_WRITE while validating txschq when sq.ena is set.

On AF driver init, it would reserve a predefined set RSS algo indexes, which will be available all the time for all the AF driver consumers. The leftover algo indexes can be reserved at runtime through exiting nix_rss_flowkey_cfg mailbox message.

With MSG_ZEROCOPY, each skb holds a reference to a struct ubuf_info. Release of its last reference triggers a completion notification. The TCP stack in tcp_sendmsg_locked holds an extra ref independent of the skbs, because it can build, send and free skbs within its loop, possibly reaching refcount zero and freeing the ubuf_info too soon. The UDP stack currently also takes this extra ref, but does not need it as all skbs are sent after return from __ip(6)_append_data. Avoid the extra refcount_inc and refcount_dec_and_test, and generally the sock_zerocopy_put in the common path, by passing the initial reference to the first skb. This approach is taken instead of initializing the refcount to 0, as that would generate error "refcount_t: increment on 0" on the next skb_zcopy_set.
