This patch introduce a flag property for the wpan phy structure. The current flag settings in ieee802154_hw are accessable in mac802154 layer only which is okay for flags which indicates MAC handling which are done by phy. For real PHY layer settings like cca mode, transmit power, cca energy detection level. The difference between these flags are that the MAC handling flags are only handled in mac802154/HardMac layer e.g. on an interface up. The phy settings are direct netlink calls from nl802154 into the driver layer and the nl802154 need to have a chance to check if the driver supports this handling before sending to the next layer. We also check now on PHY flags while dumping and setting pib attributes. In comparing with MIB attributes the 802.15.4 gives us an default value which we assume when a transceiver implement less functionality. In case of MIB settings the nl802154 layer doesn't need to check on the ieee802154_hw flags then.

This patch removes the check if operation is supported by driver layer. This is done now by capabilities flags, if these are valid then the driver should support the operation, otherwise a WARN_ON occurs.

This patch adds check if the value is really changed inside pib/mib. If a transceiver do support only one value for e.g. max_be then this will also handle that the driver layer doesn't need to care about handling to set one value only.

This patch adds support for phy supported handling for all other already existing handling 802.15.4 functionality. We assume now a fully 802.15.4 complaint transceiver at phy allocation. If a transceiver can support 802.15.4 default values only, then the values should be overwirtten by values the transceiver supports. If the transceiver doesn't set the according hardware flags, we assume the 802.15.4 defaults now which cannot be changed.

This patch introduce the wpan_phy_supported struct for wpan_phy. There is currently no way to check if a transceiver can handle IEEE 802.15.4 complaint values. With this struct we can check before if the transceiver supports these values before sending to driver layer.

Remove test of command reply status as it is already performed by __hci_cmd_sync(). __hci_cmd_sync_ev() function already returns an error if it got a non-zero status either through a Command Complete or a Command Status event. For both of these events the status is collected up in the event handlers called by hci_event_packet() and then passed as the second parameter to req_complete_skb(). The req_complete_skb() callback in turn is hci_req_sync_complete() for __hci_cmd_sync_ev() which stores the status in hdev->req_result. The hdev->req_result is then further converted through bt_to_errno() back in __hci_cmd_sync_ev().

Willem de Bruijn says: ==================== refine packet socket rollover: 1. mitigate a case of lock contention 2. avoid exporting resource exhaustion to other sockets, by migrating only to a victim socket that has ample room 3. avoid reordering of most flows on the socket, by migrating first the flow responsible for load imbalance 4. help processes detect load imbalance, by exporting rollover counters Context: rollover implements flow migration in packet socket fanout groups in case of extreme load imbalance. It is a specific implementation of migration that minimizes reordering by selecting the same victim socket when possible (and by selecting subsequent victims in a round robin fashion, from which its name derives). Changes: v2 -> v3: - statistics: replace unsigned long with __aligned_u64 v1 -> v2: - huge flow detection: run lockless - huge flow detection: replace stored index with random - contention avoidance: test in packet_poll while lock held - contention avoidance: clear pressure sooner packet_poll and packet_recvmsg would clear only if the sock is empty to avoid taking the necessary lock. But, * packet_poll already holds this lock, so a lockless variant __packet_rcv_has_room is cheap. * packet_recvmsg is usually called only for non-ring sockets, which also runs lockless. - preparation: drop "single return" patch packet_rcv_has_room is now a locked wrapper around __packet_rcv_has_room, achieving the same (single footer).

Rollover indicates exceptional conditions. Export a counter to inform socket owners of this state. If no socket with sufficient room is found, rollover fails. Also count these events. Finally, also count when flows are rolled over early thanks to huge flow detection, to validate its correctness.

Migrate flows from a socket to another socket in the fanout group not only when the socket is full. Start migrating huge flows early, to divert possible 4-tuple attacks without affecting normal traffic. Introduce fanout_flow_is_huge(). This detects huge flows, which are defined as taking up more than half the load. It does so cheaply, by storing the rxhashes of the N most recent packets. If over half of these are the same rxhash as the current packet, then drop it. This only protects against 4-tuple attacks. N is chosen to fit all data in a single cache line. Tested: Ran bench_rollover for 10 sec with 1.5 Mpps of single flow input. lpbb5:/export/hda3/willemb# ./bench_rollover -l 1000 -r -s cpu rx rx.k drop.k rollover r.huge r.failed 0 14 14 0 0 0 0 1 20 20 0 0 0 0 2 16 16 0 0 0 0 3 6168824 6168824 0 4867721 4867721 0 4 4867741 4867741 0 0 0 0 5 12 12 0 0 0 0 6 15 15 0 0 0 0 7 17 17 0 0 0 0 Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Rollover has to call packet_rcv_has_room on sockets in the fanout group to find a socket to migrate to. This operation is expensive especially if the packet sockets use rings, when a lock has to be acquired. Avoid pounding on the lock by all sockets by temporarily marking a socket as "under memory pressure" when such pressure is detected. While set, only the socket owner may call packet_rcv_has_room on the socket. Once it detects normal conditions, it clears the flag. The socket is not used as a victim by any other socket in the meantime. Under reasonably balanced load, each socket writer frequently calls packet_rcv_has_room and clears its own pressure field. As a backup for when the socket is rarely written to, also clear the flag on reading (packet_recvmsg, packet_poll) if this can be done cheaply (i.e., without calling packet_rcv_has_room). This is only for edge cases. Tested: Ran bench_rollover: a process with 8 sockets in a single fanout group, each pinned to a single cpu that receives one nic recv interrupt. RPS and RFS are disabled. The benchmark uses packet rx_ring, which has to take a lock when determining whether a socket has room. Sent 3.5 Mpps of UDP traffic with sufficient entropy to spread uniformly across the packet sockets (and inserted an iptables rule to drop in PREROUTING to avoid protocol stack processing). Without this patch, all sockets try to migrate traffic to neighbors, causing lock contention when searching for a non- empty neighbor. The lock is the top 9 entries. perf record -a -g sleep 5 - 17.82% bench_rollover [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock - _raw_spin_lock - 99.00% spin_lock + 81.77% packet_rcv_has_room.isra.41 + 18.23% tpacket_rcv + 0.84% packet_rcv_has_room.isra.41 + 5.20% ksoftirqd/6 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 5.15% ksoftirqd/1 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 5.14% ksoftirqd/2 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 5.12% ksoftirqd/7 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 5.12% ksoftirqd/5 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 5.10% ksoftirqd/4 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 4.66% ksoftirqd/0 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 4.45% ksoftirqd/3 [kernel.kallsyms] [k] _raw_spin_lock + 1.55% bench_rollover [kernel.kallsyms] [k] packet_rcv_has_room.isra.41 On net-next with this patch, this lock contention is no longer a top entry.

Only migrate flows to sockets that have sufficient headroom, where sufficient is defined as having at least 25% empty space. The kernel has three different buffer types: a regular socket, a ring with frames (TPACKET_V[12]) or a ring with blocks (TPACKET_V3). The latter two do not expose a read pointer to the kernel, so headroom is not computed easily. All three needs a different implementation to estimate free space. Tested: Ran bench_rollover for 10 sec with 1.5 Mpps of single flow input. bench_rollover has as many sockets as there are NIC receive queues in the system. Each socket is owned by a process that is pinned to one of the receive cpus. RFS is disabled. RPS is enabled with an identity mapping (cpu x -> cpu x), to count drops with softnettop. lpbb5:/export/hda3/willemb# ./bench_rollover -r -l 1000 -s Press [Enter] to exit cpu rx rx.k drop.k rollover r.huge r.failed 0 16 16 0 0 0 0 1 21 21 0 0 0 0 2 5227502 5227502 0 0 0 0 3 18 18 0 0 0 0 4 6083289 6083289 0 5227496 0 0 5 22 22 0 0 0 0 6 21 21 0 0 0 0 7 9 9 0 0 0 0 Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

packet_rcv_fanout calls fanout_demux_rollover twice. Move all rollover logic into the callee to simplify these callsites, especially with upcoming changes. The main differences between the two callsites is that the FLAG variant tests whether the socket previously selected by another mode (RR, RND, HASH, ..) has room before migrating flows, whereas the rollover mode has no original socket to test.

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== introduce programable flow dissector and cls_flower Per Davem's request, I prepared this patchset which introduces programmable flow dissector. For current users of flow_keys, there is a wrapper skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys which maintains the previous behaviour. For purposes of cls_flower, couple of new dissection keys were introduced. Note that this dissector can be also eventually used by openvswitch code. Also, as a next step, I plan to get rid of *skb_flow_get_ports(export) and *__skb_get_poff as their functionality can be now implemented by skb_flow_dissect as well. v2->v3: - remove TCA_FLOWER_POLICE attr suggested by Jamal v1->v2: - move __skb_tx_hash rather to dev.c as suggested by Alex ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
