There is need to instruct the HW offloaded path to push certain matched packets to cpu/kernel for further analysis. So this patch introduces a new TRAP control action to TC. For kernel datapath, this action does not make much sense. So with the same logic as in HW, new TRAP behaves similar to STOLEN. The skb is just dropped in the datapath (and virtually ejected to an upper level, which does not exist in case of kernel).

Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20170606' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Support service upgrade Here's a set of patches that allow AF_RXRPC to support the AuriStor service upgrade facility. This allows the server to change the service ID requested to an upgraded service if the client requests it upon the initiation of a connection. This is used by the AuriStor AFS-compatible servers to implement IPv6 handling and improved facilities by providing improved volume location, volume, protection, file and cache management services. Note that certain parts of the AFS protocol carry hard-coded IPv4 addresses. The reason AuriStor does it this way is that probing the improved service ID first will not incur an ABORT or any other response on some servers if the server is not listening on it - and so one have to employ a timeout. This is implemented in the server by allowing an AF_RXRPC server to call bind() twice on a socket to allow it to listen on two service IDs and then call setsockopt() to instruct the server to upgrade one into the other if the client requests it (by setting userStatus to 1 on the first DATA packet on a connection). If the upgrade occurs, all further operations on that connection are done with the new service ID. AF_RXRPC has to handle this automatically as connections are not exposed to userspace. Clients can request this facility by setting an RXRPC_UPGRADE_SERVICE command in the sendmsg() control buffer and then observing the resultant service ID in the msg_addr returned by recvmsg(). This should only be used to probe the service. Clients should then use the returned service ID in all subsequent communications with that server. Note that the kernel will not retain this information should the connection expire from its cache. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-06-06 This series contains updates and fixes to e1000e and igb. Matwey V Kornilov fixes an issue where igb_get_phy_id_82575() relies on the fact that page 0 is already selected, but this is not the case after igb_read_phy_reg_gs40g()/igb_write_phy_reg_gs40g() were removed in a previous commit. This leads to initialization failure and some devices not working. To fix the issue, explicitly select page 0 before first access to PHY registers. Arnd Bergmann modifies the driver to avoid a "defined but not used" warning by removing #ifdefs and using __maybe_unused annotation instead for new power management functions. Jake provides most of the changes in the series, all around PTP and timestamp fixes/updates. Resolved several race conditions based on the hardware can only handle one transmit timestamp at a time, so fix the locking logic, as well as create a statistic for "skipped" timestamps to help administrators identify issues. Benjamin Poirier provides 2 changes, first to igb to remove the second argument to igb_update_stats() since it always passes the same two arguments. So instead of having to pass the second argument, just update the function to the necessary information from the adapter structure. Second modifies the e1000e_get_stats64() call to dev_get_stats() to avoid ethtool garbage being reported.

The igb driver has logic to handle only one Tx timestamp at a time, using a state bit lock to avoid multiple requests at once. It may be possible, if incredibly unlikely, that a Tx timestamp event is requested but never completes. Since we use an interrupt scheme to determine when the Tx timestamp occurred we would never clear the state bit in this case. Add an igb_ptp_tx_hang() function similar to the already existing igb_ptp_rx_hang() function. This function runs in the watchdog routine and makes sure we eventually recover from this case instead of permanently disabling Tx timestamps. Note: there is no currently known way to cause this without hacking the driver code to force it.

The igb driver uses a state bit lock to avoid handling more than one Tx timestamp request at once. This is required because hardware is limited to a single set of registers for Tx timestamps. The state bit lock is not properly cleaned up during igb_xmit_frame_ring() if the transmit fails such as due to DMA or TSO failure. In some hardware this results in blocking timestamps until the service task times out. In other hardware this results in a permanent lock of the timestamp bit because we never receive an interrupt indicating the timestamp occurred, since indeed the packet was never transmitted. Fix this by checking for DMA and TSO errors in igb_xmit_frame_ring() and properly cleaning up after ourselves when these occur.

Hardware related to the igb driver has a limitation of only handling one Tx timestamp at a time. Thus, the driver uses a state bit lock to enforce that only one timestamp request is honored at a time. Unfortunately this suffers from a simple race condition. The bit lock is not cleared until after skb_tstamp_tx() is called notifying the stack of a new Tx timestamp. Even a well behaved application which sends only one timestamp request at once and waits for a response might wake up and send a new packet before the bit lock is cleared. This results in needlessly dropping some Tx timestamp requests. We can fix this by unlocking the state bit as soon as we read the Timestamp register, as this is the first point at which it is safe to unlock. To avoid issues with the skb pointer, we'll use a copy of the pointer and set the global variable in the driver structure to NULL first. This ensures that the next timestamp request does not modify our local copy of the skb pointer. This ensures that well behaved applications do not accidentally race with the unlock bit. Obviously an application which sends multiple Tx timestamp requests at once will still only timestamp one packet at a time. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this.

The e1000e driver and related hardware has a limitation on Tx PTP packets which requires we limit to timestamping a single packet at once. We do this by verifying that we never request a new Tx timestamp while we still have a tx_hwtstamp_skb pointer. Unfortunately the driver suffers from a race condition around this. The tx_hwtstamp_skb pointer is not set to NULL until after skb_tstamp_tx() is called. This function notifies the stack and applications of a new timestamp. Even a well behaved application that only sends a new request when the first one is finished might be woken up and possibly send a packet before we can free the timestamp in the driver again. The result is that we needlessly ignore some Tx timestamp requests in this corner case. Fix this by assigning the tx_hwtstamp_skb pointer prior to calling skb_tstamp_tx() and use a temporary pointer to hold the timestamped skb until that function finishes. This ensures that the application is not woken up until the driver is ready to begin timestamping a new packet. This ensures that well behaved applications do not accidentally race with condition to skip Tx timestamps. Obviously an application which sends multiple Tx timestamp requests at once will still only timestamp one packet at a time. Unfortunately there is nothing we can do about this.

The EPHY may be already enabled by bootloaders which have Ethernet capability (e.g. current U-Boot). Thus it should be reseted properly before doing the enabling sequence in the dwmac-sun8i driver, otherwise the EMAC reset process may fail if no cable is plugged, and then fail the dwmac-sun8i probing. Tested on Orange Pi PC, One and Zero. All the boards fail to have dwmac-sun8i probed with "EMAC reset timeout" without cable plugged before, and with this fix they're now all able to successfully probe the EMAC without cable plugged and then use the connection after a cable is hot-plugged in.

Make it possible for a client to use AuriStor's service upgrade facility. The client does this by adding an RXRPC_UPGRADE_SERVICE control message to the first sendmsg() of a call. This takes no parameters. When recvmsg() starts returning data from the call, the service ID field in the returned msg_name will reflect the result of the upgrade attempt. If the upgrade was ignored, srx_service will match what was set in the sendmsg(); if the upgrade happened the srx_service will be altered to indicate the service the server upgraded to. Note that: (1) The choice of upgrade service is up to the server (2) Further client calls to the same server that would share a connection are blocked if an upgrade probe is in progress. (3) This should only be used to probe the service. Clients should then use the returned service ID in all subsequent communications with that server (and not set the upgrade). Note that the kernel will not retain this information should the connection expire from its cache. (4) If a server that supports upgrading is replaced by one that doesn't, whilst a connection is live, and if the replacement is running, say, OpenAFS 1.6.4 or older or an older IBM AFS, then the replacement server will not respond to packets sent to the upgraded connection. At this point, calls will time out and the server must be reprobed. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Implement AuriStor's service upgrade facility. There are three problems that this is meant to deal with: (1) Various of the standard AFS RPC calls have IPv4 addresses in their requests and/or replies - but there's no room for including IPv6 addresses. (2) Definition of IPv6-specific RPC operations in the standard operation sets has not yet been achieved. (3) One could envision the creation a new service on the same port that as the original service. The new service could implement improved operations - and the client could try this first, falling back to the original service if it's not there. Unfortunately, certain servers ignore packets addressed to a service they don't implement and don't respond in any way - not even with an ABORT. This means that the client must then wait for the call timeout to occur. What service upgrade does is to see if the connection is marked as being 'upgradeable' and if so, change the service ID in the server and thus the request and reply formats. Note that the upgrade isn't mandatory - a server that supports only the original call set will ignore the upgrade request. In the protocol, the procedure is then as follows: (1) To request an upgrade, the first DATA packet in a new connection must have the userStatus set to 1 (this is normally 0). The userStatus value is normally ignored by the server. (2) If the server doesn't support upgrading, the reply packets will contain the same service ID as for the first request packet. (3) If the server does support upgrading, all future reply packets on that connection will contain the new service ID and the new service ID will be applied to *all* further calls on that connection as well. (4) The RPC op used to probe the upgrade must take the same request data as the shadow call in the upgrade set (but may return a different reply). GetCapability RPC ops were added to all standard sets for just this purpose. Ops where the request formats differ cannot be used for probing. (5) The client must wait for completion of the probe before sending any further RPC ops to the same destination. It should then use the service ID that recvmsg() reported back in all future calls. (6) The shadow service must have call definitions for all the operation IDs defined by the original service. To support service upgrading, a server should: (1) Call bind() twice on its AF_RXRPC socket before calling listen(). Each bind() should supply a different service ID, but the transport addresses must be the same. This allows the server to receive requests with either service ID. (2) Enable automatic upgrading by calling setsockopt(), specifying RXRPC_UPGRADEABLE_SERVICE and passing in a two-member array of unsigned shorts as the argument: unsigned short optval[2]; This specifies a pair of service IDs. They must be different and must match the service IDs bound to the socket. Member 0 is the service ID to upgrade from and member 1 is the service ID to upgrade to.

Permit bind() to be called on an AF_RXRPC socket more than once (currently maximum twice) to bind multiple listening services to it. There are some restrictions: (1) All bind() calls involved must have a non-zero service ID. (2) The service IDs must all be different. (3) The rest of the address (notably the transport part) must be the same in all (a single UDP socket is shared). (4) This must be done before listen() or sendmsg() is called. This allows someone to connect to the service socket with different service IDs and lays the foundation for service upgrading. The service ID used by an incoming call can be extracted from the msg_name returned by recvmsg(). Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Keep the rxrpc_connection struct's idea of the service ID that is exposed in the protocol separate from the service ID that's used as a lookup key. This allows the protocol service ID on a client connection to get upgraded without making the connection unfindable for other client calls that also would like to use the upgraded connection. The connection's actual service ID is then returned through recvmsg() by way of msg_name. Whilst we're at it, we get rid of the last_service_id field from each channel. The service ID is per-connection, not per-call and an entire connection is upgraded in one go. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Yuval Mintz says: qed*: Support VF XDP attachment ==================== Each driver queue [Rx, Tx, XDP-forwarding] requires an allocated HW/FW connection + configured queue-zone. VF handling by the PF has several limitations that prevented adding the capability to perform XDP at driver-level: - The VF assumes there's 1-to-1 correspondance between the VF queue and the used connection, meaning q<x> is always going to use cid<x>, whereas for its own queues the PF is acquiring a new cid per each new queue. - There's a 1-to-1 correspondate between the VF-queues and the HW queue zones. While this is necessary for Rx-queues [as the queue-zone contains the producer], transmission queues can share the underlaying queue-zone [only shared configuration is coalescing]. But all VF<->PF communication mechanisms assume there's a single identifier that identify a queue [as queue-zone == queue], while sharing queue-zones requires passing additional information. - VFs currently don't try mapping a doorbell bar - there's a small doorbell window in the regview allowing VFs to doorbell up to 16 connections; but this window isn's wide enough for the added XDP forwarding queues. This series is going to add the necessary infrastrucutre to finally let our VFs support XDP assuming both the PF and VF drivers are sufficiently new [Legacy support would be retained both for older VFs and older PFs, but both will be needed for this new support to work]. Basically, the various database driver maintains for its queue-cids would be revised, and queue-cids would be identified using the (queue-zone, unique index) pair. The TLV mechanism would then be extended to allow VFs to communicate that unique-index as well as the already provided queue-zone. Finally, the VFs would try to map their doorbell bar and inform their PF that they're using it. Almost all the changes are in qed, with exception of #3 [which does some cleanup in qede as well] and #11 that actually enables the feature. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

VFs are currently not mapping their doorbell bar, instead relying on the small doorbell window they have in their limited regview bar. In order to increase the number of possible Tx connections [queues] employeed by VF past 16, we need to start using the doorbell bar if one such is exposed - VF would communicate this fact to PF which would return the size-bar internally configured into chip, according to which the VF would decide whether to actually utilize the doorbell bar.
