Each configuration element send via ramrod requires a Slow Path Queue entry. This slightly changes the way such an entry is configured, but contains mostly semantic changes [where more parameters are gathered in a sub-struct instead of being directly passed].

Due to HW design, some of the memories are wide-bus and access to those needs to be sequentialized on a per-HW-block level; Read/write to a given HW-block might break other read/write to wide-bus memory done at ~same time. Status blocks initialization in CAU is done into such a wide-bus memory. This moves the initialization into using DMAE which is guaranteed to be safe to use on such memories.

While debugging with bpf_jit_disasm I noticed emissions of 'mov %eax,%eax', and found that this comes from BPF_RET | BPF_A translations from classic BPF. Emitting this is unnecessary as BPF_REG_A is mapped into BPF_REG_0 already, therefore only emit a mov when immediates are used as return value.

When using this helper for updating UDP checksums, we need to extend this in order to write CSUM_MANGLED_0 for csum computations that result into 0 as sum. Reason we need this is because packets with a checksum could otherwise become incorrectly marked as a packet without a checksum. Likewise, if the user indicates BPF_F_MARK_MANGLED_0, then we should not turn packets without a checksum into ones with a checksum.

We currently limit bpf_skb_store_bytes() and bpf_skb_load_bytes() helpers to only store or load a maximum buffer of 16 bytes. Thus, loading, rewriting and storing headers require several bpf_skb_load_bytes() and bpf_skb_store_bytes() calls. Also here we can use a per-cpu scratch buffer instead in order to not pressure stack space any further. I do suspect that this limit was mainly set in place for this particular reason. So, ease program development by removing this limitation and make the scratchpad generic, so it can be reused.

For L4 checksums, we currently have bpf_l4_csum_replace() helper. It's currently limited to handle 2 and 4 byte changes in a header and feeds the from/to into inet_proto_csum_replace{2,4}() helpers of the kernel. When working with IPv6, for example, this makes it rather cumbersome to deal with, similarly when editing larger parts of a header. Instead, extend the API in a more generic way: For bpf_l4_csum_replace(), add a case for header field mask of 0 to change the checksum at a given offset through inet_proto_csum_replace_by_diff(), and provide a helper bpf_csum_diff() that can generically calculate a from/to diff for arbitrary amounts of data. This can be used in multiple ways: for the bpf_l4_csum_replace() only part, this even provides us with the option to insert precalculated diffs from user space f.e. from a map, or from bpf_csum_diff() during runtime. bpf_csum_diff() has a optional from/to stack buffer input, so we can calculate a diff by using a scratchbuffer for scenarios where we're inserting (from is NULL), removing (to is NULL) or diffing (from/to buffers don't need to be of equal size) data. Also, bpf_csum_diff() allows to feed a previous csum into csum_partial(), so the function can also be cascaded.

Currently, when we pass a buffer from the eBPF stack into a helper function, the function proto indicates argument types as ARG_PTR_TO_STACK and ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE pair. If R<X> contains the former, then R<X+1> must be of the latter type. Then, verifier checks whether the buffer points into eBPF stack, is initialized, etc. The verifier also guarantees that the constant value passed in R<X+1> is greater than 0, so helper functions don't need to test for it and can always assume a non-NULL initialized buffer as well as non-0 buffer size. This patch adds a new argument types ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE_OR_ZERO that allows to also pass NULL as R<X> and 0 as R<X+1> into the helper function. Such helper functions, of course, need to be able to handle these cases internally then. Verifier guarantees that either R<X> == NULL && R<X+1> == 0 or R<X> != NULL && R<X+1> != 0 (like the case of ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE), any other combinations are not possible to load. I went through various options of extending the verifier, and introducing the type ARG_CONST_STACK_SIZE_OR_ZERO seems to have most minimal changes needed to the verifier.

Alexander Duyck says: ==================== GENEVE/VXLAN: Enable outer Tx checksum by default This patch series makes it so that we enable the outer Tx checksum for IPv4 tunnels by default. This makes the behavior consistent with how we were handling this for IPv6. In addition I have updated the internal flags for these tunnels so that we use a ZERO_CSUM_TX flag for IPv4 which should match up will with the ZERO_CSUM6_TX flag which was already in use for IPv6. For most network devices this should be a net gain in terms of performance as having the outer header checksum present allows for devices to report CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY which we can then convert to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE in order to determine if the inner header checksum is valid. Below is some data I collected with ixgbe with an X540 that demonstrates this. I located two PFs connected back to back in two different name spaces and then setup a pair of tunnels on each, one with checksum enabled and one without. Recv Send Send Utilization Socket Socket Message Elapsed Send Size Size Size Time Throughput local bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/s % S noudpcsum: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 8898.67 12.80 udpcsum: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 9088.47 5.69 The one spot where this may cause a performance regression is if the environment contains devices that can parse the inner headers and a device supports NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL but not NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL_CSUM. In the case of such a device we have to fall back to using GSO to segment the tunnel instead of TSO and as a result we may take a performance hit as seen below with i40e. Recv Send Send Utilization Socket Socket Message Elapsed Send Size Size Size Time Throughput local bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/s % S noudpcsum: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 9085.21 3.32 udpcsum: 87380 16384 16384 30.00 9089.23 5.54 In addition it will be necessary to update iproute2 so that we don't provide the checksum attribute unless specified. This way on older kernels which don't have local checksum offload we will default to disabling the outer checksum, and on newer kernels that have LCO we can default to enabling it. I also haven't investigated the effect this will have on OVS. However I suspect the impact should be minimal as the worst case scenario should be that Tx checksumming will become enabled by default which should be consistent with the existing behavior for IPv6. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Robert Shearman says: ==================== lwtunnel: autoload of lwt modules Changes since v1: - remove "LWTUNNEL_ENCAP_" prefix for the string form of the encaps used when requesting the module to reduce duplication, and don't bother returning strings for lwt modules using netdevices, both suggested by Jiri. - update commit message of first patch to clarify security implications, in response to Eric's comments. The lwt implementations using net devices can autoload using the existing mechanism using IFLA_INFO_KIND. However, there's no mechanism that lwt modules not using net devices can use. Therefore, these patches add the ability to autoload modules registering lwt operations for lwt implementations not using a net device so that users don't have to manually load the modules. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Only users with the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability can cause modules to be loaded, which is ensured by rtnetlink_rcv_msg rejecting non-RTM_GETxxx messages for users without this capability, and by lwtunnel_build_state not being called in response to RTM_GETxxx messages.

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== bpf_get_stackid() and stack_trace map This patch set introduces new map type to store stack traces and corresponding bpf_get_stackid() helper. BPF programs already can walk the stack via unrolled loop of bpf_probe_read()s which is ok for simple analysis, but it's not efficient and limited to <30 frames after that the programs don't fit into MAX_BPF_STACK. With bpf_get_stackid() helper the programs can collect up to PERF_MAX_STACK_DEPTH both user and kernel frames. Using stack traces as a key in a map turned out to be very useful for generating flame graphs, off-cpu graphs, waker and chain graphs. Patch 3 is a simplified version of 'offwaketime' tool which is described in detail here: http://brendangregg.com/blog/2016-02-01/linux-wakeup-offwake-profiling.html Earlier version of this patch were using save_stack_trace() helper, but 'unreliable' frames add to much noise and two equiavlent stack traces produce different 'stackid's. Using lockdep style of storing frames with MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES is great for lockdep, but not acceptable for bpf, since the stack_trace map needs to be freed when user Ctrl-C the tool. The ftrace style with per_cpu(struct ftrace_stack) is great, but it's tightly coupled with ftrace ring buffer and has the same 'unreliable' noise. perf_event's perf_callchain() mechanism is also very efficient and it only needed minor generalization which is done in patch 1 to be used by bpf stack_trace maps. Peter, please take a look at patch 1. If you're ok with it, I'd like to take the whole set via net-next. Patch 1 - generalization of perf_callchain() Patch 2 - stack_trace map done as lock-less hashtable without link list to avoid spinlock on insertion which is critical path when bpf_get_stackid() helper is called for every task switch event Patch 3 - offwaketime example After the patch the 'perf report' for artificial 'sched_bench' benchmark that doing pthread_cond_wait/signal and 'offwaketime' example is running in the background: 16.35% swapper [kernel.vmlinux] [k] intel_idle 2.18% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __switch_to 2.18% sched_bench libpthread-2.12.so [.] pthread_cond_signal@@GLIBC_2.3.2 1.72% sched_bench libpthread-2.12.so [.] pthread_mutex_unlock 1.53% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] bpf_get_stackid 1.44% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] entry_SYSCALL_64 1.39% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] __call_rcu.constprop.73 1.13% sched_bench libpthread-2.12.so [.] pthread_mutex_lock 1.07% sched_bench libpthread-2.12.so [.] pthread_cond_wait@@GLIBC_2.3.2 1.07% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] hash_futex 1.05% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] do_futex 1.05% sched_bench [kernel.vmlinux] [k] get_futex_key_refs.isra.13 The hotest part of bpf_get_stackid() is inlined jhash2, so we may consider using some faster hash in the future, but it's good enough for now. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Kan Liang says: ==================== ethtool per queue parameters support Modern network interface controllers usually support multiple receive and transmit queues. Each queue may have its own parameters. For example, Intel XL710/X710 hardware supports per queue interrupt moderation. However, current ethtool does not support per queue parameters option. User has to set parameters for the whole NIC. This series extends ethtool to support per queue parameters option. Since the support of per queue parameters vary with different cards, it is impossible to address all cards in one patch. This series only supports per queue coalesce options on i40e driver. The framework used in the patch can be easily extended to other cards and parameters. The lib bitmap needs to be extended to facilitate exchanging queue bitmaps between user space and kernel space. Two patches from David's latest V8 patch series are also cited in this series. You may refer to https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/2/9/919 for more details. Changes since V6: - Rebase on commit 76d13b56. Did minor change in patch 6. Changes since V5: - Add test_bitmap.c and bitmap.sh in the series. They are forgot to be added previously. - Update the first two patches to David's latest V8 version. The changes include - bitmap u32 API returns number of bits copied, unit tests updated - module_exit in test_bitmap - Also change the mode of bitmap.sh to 755 according to Ben's suggestion Changes since V4: - Modify set/get_per_queue_coalesce function description - Change the queue number to be u32 - Correct an error of calculating coalesce backup buffer address - Rename queue_num to n_queues - Don't log error message in __i40e_get_coalesce Changes since V3: - Based on David's lib bitmap. - ETHTOOL_PERQUEUE should be handled before the containing switch - Make the rollback code unconditional - some minor changes according to Ben's feedback Changes since V2: - Add queue-specific settings for interrupt moderation in i40e Changes since V1: - Checking the sub-command number to determine whether the command requires CAP_NET_ADMIN - Refine the struct ethtool_per_queue_op and improve the comments - Use bitmap functions to parse queue mask - Improve comments - Use bitmap functions to parse queue mask - Improve comments - Add rollback support - Correct the way to find the vector for specific queue. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
