Edward Cree says: ==================== sfc: support for cascaded multicast filtering Recent versions of firmware for SFC9100 adapters add support for filter chaining, in which packets matching multiple filters are delivered to all filters' recipients, rather than only the highest match-priority filter as was previously the case. This patch series enables this feature and redesigns the filter handling code to make use of it; in particular, subscribing to a multicast address on one function no longer prevents traffic to that address reaching another function which is in promiscuous or allmulti mode. If the firmware does not support filter chaining, the driver will fall back to the old behaviour. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Separate functions for inserting individual and promisc filters; explicit fallback logic in efx_ef10_filter_sync_rx_mode(), in order not to overload the 'promisc' flag as also meaning "fall back to promisc". Signed-off-by:

If the workaround to support cascaded multicast filters ("workaround_26807") is enabled, the broadcast filter and individual multicast filters are not inserted when in promiscuous or allmulti mode. There is a race while inserting and removing filters when entering and leaving promiscuous mode. When changing promiscuous state with cascaded multicast filters, the old multicast filters are removed before inserting the new filters to avoid duplicating packets; this can lead to dropped packets until all filters have been inserted. The efx_nic:mc_promisc flag is added to record the presence of a multicast promiscuous filter; this gives a simple way to tell if the promiscuous state is changing. Signed-off-by: -

This change is only re-factoring; there are no changes to functionality except for a slight elaboration of an error message (on mismatch filter insertion failure). Signed-off-by:

If a function is in promiscuous mode and another function has a broadcast or multicast filter inserted, the function in promiscuous mode won't see that broadcast or multicast traffic. Most notably this breaks broadcast, which means ARP doesn't work. Less show-stoppingly, a function listening on a multicast address that's also in promiscuous mode will not see that multicast traffic if another function is also listening on that multicast address.

When enabling the workaround for cascaded multicast filters, the MC can reset other functions if they have already inserted filters. In that case, the workaround has been enabled, but print an info message in the log recording that other functions had to be reset. As other functions were reset, the MC will have incremented its boot count, so also increment the warm_boot_count on the function which enabled the workaround, as that function won't have received an MC reboot event and does not need to reset.

The initial use of this will be to check a flag reporting if an FLR was performed on other functions when enabling cascaded multicast filters. Signed-off-by:

GET_WORKAROUNDS was only introduced in May 2014, not all firmware will have it. So call sites need to handle ENOSYS. In this case we're probing the bug26807 workaround, which is not implemented in any firmware that doesn't have GET_WORKAROUNDS. So interpret ENOSYS as 'false'. Signed-off-by:

After creating event queue 0, check to see if the workaround is enabled, and enable it if necessary. This will be called during PCI probe and also when coming back up after a reset. The nic_data->workaround_26807 will be used in the future to control the filter insertion behaviour based on this workaround. Only the primary PF can enable this workaround, so tolerate an EPERM error and continue. Otherwise, if any step in the checking and enabling of the workaround fails, the event queue must be removed. We check that workaround is implemented before trying to enable it, and store the current workaround setting before trying to change it. Signed-off-by:

In commit d999297c ("tipc: reduce locking scope during packet reception") we introduced a new function tipc_link_proto_rcv(). This function contains a bug, so that it sometimes by error sends out a non-zero link priority value in created protocol messages. The bug may lead to an extra link reset at initial link establising with older nodes. This will never happen more than once, whereafter the link will work as intended. We fix this bug in this commit.

Florian Fainelli says: ==================== net: enable inband link state negotiation only when explicitly requested Changes in v5: - removed an invalid use of the link_update callback in the SF2 driver was appeared after merging "net: phy: fixed_phy: handle link-down case" - reworded the commit message for patch 2 to make it clear what it fixes and why this is required Initial cover letter from Stas: Hello. Currently the link status auto-negotiation is enabled for any SGMII link with fixed-link DT binding. The regression was reported: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/8/865 Apparently not all HW that implements SGMII protocol, generates the inband status for the auto-negotiation to work. More details here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/10/206 The following patches reverts to the old behavior by default, which is to not enable the auto-negotiation for fixed-link. The new DT property is added that allows to explicitly request the auto-negotiation. ==================== Signed-off-by:

The commit 898b2970 ("mvneta: implement SGMII-based in-band link state signaling") implemented the link parameters auto-negotiation unconditionally. Unfortunately it appears that some HW that implements SGMII protocol, doesn't generate the inband status, so it is not possible to auto-negotiate anything with such HW. This patch enables the auto-negotiation only if explicitly requested with the 'managed' DT property. This patch fixes the following regression: https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/8/865Signed-off-by:

Currently the PHY management type is selected by the MAC driver arbitrary. The decision is based on the presence of the "fixed-link" node and on a will of the driver's authors. This caused a regression recently, when mvneta driver suddenly started to use the in-band status for auto-negotiation on fixed links. It appears the auto-negotiation may not work when expected by the MAC driver. Sebastien Rannou explains: << Yes, I confirm that my HW does not generate an in-band status. AFAIK, it's a PHY that aggregates 4xSGMIIs to 1xQSGMII ; the MAC side of the PHY (with inband status) is connected to the switch through QSGMII, and in this context we are on the media side of the PHY. >> https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/10/206 This patch introduces the new string property 'managed' that allows the user to set the management type explicitly. The supported values are: "auto" - default. Uses either MDIO or nothing, depending on the presence of the fixed-link node "in-band-status" - use in-band status Signed-off-by:

fixed_phy_register() currently hardcodes the fixed PHY link to 1, and expects to find a "speed" parameter to provide correct information towards the fixed PHY consumer. In a subsequent change, where we allow "managed" (e.g: (RS)GMII in-band status auto-negotiation) fixed PHYs, none of these parameters can be provided since they will be auto-negotiated, hence, we just provide a zero-initialized fixed_phy_status to fixed_phy_register() which makes it fail when we call fixed_phy_update_regs() since status.speed = 0 which makes us hit the "default" label and error out. Without this change, we would also see potentially inconsistent speed/duplex parameters for fixed PHYs when the link is DOWN.

The SF2 driver currently overrides speed settings for its port configured using a fixed PHY, this is both unnecessary and incorrect, because we keep feedback to the hardware parameters that we read from the PHY device, which in the case of a fixed PHY cannot possibly change speed. This is a required change to allow the fixed PHY code to allow registering a PHY with a link configured as DOWN by default and avoid some sort of circular dependency where we require the link_update callback to run to program the hardware, and we then utilize the fixed PHY parameters to program the hardware with the same settings.

Thomas Graf says: ==================== Lightweight & flow based encapsulation This series combines the work previously posted by Roopa, Robert and myself. It's according to what we discussed at NFWS. The motivation of this series is to: * Consolidate code between OVS and the rest of the kernel and get rid of OVS vports and instead represent them as pure net_devices. * Introduce a lightweight tunneling mechanism which enables flow based encapsulation to improve scalability on both RX and TX. * Do the above in an encapsulation unspecific way so that the encapsulation type is eventually abstracted away from the user. * Use the same forwarding decision for both native forwarding and encapsulation thus allowing to switch between native IPv6 and UDP encapsulation based on endpoint without requiring additional logic The fundamental changes introduces in this series are: * A new RTA_ENCAP Netlink attribute for routes carrying encapsulation instructions. Depending on the specified type, the instructions apply to UDP encapsulations, MPLS and possible other in the future. * Depending on the encapsulation type, the output function of the dst is directly overwritten or the dst merely attaches metadata and relies on a subsequent net_device to apply it to the packet. The latter is typically used if an inner and outer IP header exist which require two subsequent routing lookups to be performed. * A new metadata_dst structure which can be attached to skbs to carry metadata in between subsystems. This new metadata transport is used to provide a single interface for VXLAN, routing and OVS to communicate through metadata. The OVS interfaces remain as-is but will transparently create a real VXLAN net_device in the background. iproute2 is extended with a new use cases: VXLAN: ip route add 40.1.1.1/32 encap vxlan id 10 dst 50.1.1.2 dev vxlan0 MPLS: ip route add 10.1.1.0/30 encap mpls 200 via inet 10.1.1.1 dev swp1 Performance implications: The additional memory allocation in the receive path should have performance implications although it is not observable in standard throughput tests if GRO is properly done. The correct net_device model outweights the additional cost of the allocation. Furthermore, this implication can be relaxed by reintroducing a direct unqueued path from a software device to a consumer like bridge or OVS if needed. $ netperf -t TCP_STREAM -H 15.1.1.201 MIGRATED TCP STREAM TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 15.1.1.201 (15.1.1.201) port 0 AF_INET : demo Recv Send Send Socket Socket Message Elapsed Size Size Size Time Throughput bytes bytes bytes secs. 10^6bits/sec 87380 16384 16384 10.00 9118.17 Changes since v1: * Properly initialize tun_id as reported by Julian * Drop dupliate netif_keep_dst() as reported by Alexei ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This gets rid of all OVS specific VXLAN code in the receive and transmit path by using a VXLAN net_device to represent the vport. Only a small shim layer remains which takes care of handling the VXLAN specific OVS Netlink configuration. Unexports vxlan_sock_add(), vxlan_sock_release(), vxlan_xmit_skb() since they are no longer needed. Signed-off-by:

Allows putting a VXLAN device into a new flow-based mode in which skbs with a ip_tunnel_info dst metadata attached will be encapsulated according to the instructions stored in there with the VXLAN device defaults taken into consideration. Similar on the receive side, if the VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA flag is set, the packet processing will populate a ip_tunnel_info struct for each packet received and attach it to the skb using the new metadata dst. The metadata structure will contain the outer header and tunnel header fields which have been stripped off. Layers further up in the stack such as routing, tc or netfitler can later match on these fields and perform forwarding. It is the responsibility of upper layers to ensure that the flag is set if the metadata is needed. The flag limits the additional cost of metadata collecting based on demand. This prepares the VXLAN device to be steered by the routing and other subsystems which allows to support encapsulation for a large number of tunnel endpoints and tunnel ids through a single net_device which improves the scalability. It also allows for OVS to leverage this mode which in turn allows for the removal of the OVS specific VXLAN code. Because the skb is currently scrubed in vxlan_rcv(), the attachment of the new dst metadata is postponed until after scrubing which requires the temporary addition of a new member to vxlan_metadata. This member is removed again in a later commit after the indirect VXLAN receive API has been removed. Signed-off-by:

Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer. The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be made stackable. The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before queueing the skb. In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what. The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret metadata in a later commit. Signed-off-by:

Rename the tunnel metadata data structures currently internal to OVS and make them generic for use by all IP tunnels. Both structures are kernel internal and will stay that way. Their members are exposed to user space through individual Netlink attributes by OVS. It will therefore be possible to extend/modify these structures without affecting user ABI. Signed-off-by:
