Shorten our msleep time while polling for the dev command request to finish. Yes, checkpatch.pl complains that the msleep might actually go longer - that won't hurt, but we'll take the shorter time if we can get it.

When going into a firmware upgrade cycle, we set the device as not present to keep some user commands from trying to change the driver while we're only half there. Unfortunately, the ndo_vf_* calls don't check netif_device_present() so we need to add a check in the callbacks. Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <snelson@pensando.io> Signed-off-by: David S.

The version 1 Tx queues can use longer SG lists than the original version 0 queues, but we need to check to see if the firmware supports the v1 Tx queues. This implements the queue type query for all queue types, and uses the information to set up for using the longer Tx SG lists. Because the Tx SG list can be longer, we need to limit the max ring length to be sure we stay inside the boundaries of a DMA allocation max size, so we lower the max Tx ring size. The driver sets its highest known version in the Q_IDENTITY command, and the FW returns the highest version that it knows, bounded by the driver's version. The negotiated version number is later used in the Q_INIT commands. Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <snelson@pensando.io> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

ENOTSUPP often feels like the right error code to use, but it's in fact not a standard Unix error. E.g.: $ python >>> import errno >>> errno.errorcode[errno.ENOTSUPP] Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> AttributeError: module 'errno' has no attribute 'ENOTSUPP' There were numerous commits converting the uses back to EOPNOTSUPP but in some cases we are stuck with the high error code for backward compatibility reasons. Let's try prevent more ENOTSUPPs from getting into the kernel. Recent example: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200510182252.GA411829@lunn.ch/ v3 (Joe): - fix the "not file" condition. v2 (Joe): - add a link to recent discussion, - don't match when scanning files, not patches to avoid sudden influx of conversion patches. https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200511165319.2251678-1-kuba@kernel.org/ v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200510185148.2230767-1-kuba@kernel.org/Suggested-by: Andrew Lunn <andrew@lunn.ch> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Acked-by: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Christoph Hellwig says: ==================== improve msg_control kernel vs user pointer handling this series replace the msg_control in the kernel msghdr structure with an anonymous union and separate fields for kernel vs user pointers. In addition to helping a bit with type safety and reducing sparse warnings, this also allows to remove the set_fs() in kernel_recvmsg, helping with an eventual entire removal of set_fs(). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Christoph Hellwig authored
The msg_control field in struct msghdr can either contain a user pointer when used with the recvmsg system call, or a kernel pointer when used with sendmsg. To complicate things further kernel_recvmsg can stuff a kernel pointer in and then use set_fs to make the uaccess helpers accept it. Replace it with a union of a kernel pointer msg_control field, and a user pointer msg_control_user one, and allow kernel_recvmsg operate on a proper kernel pointer using a bitfield to override the normal choice of a user pointer for recvmsg.

This series refactors several nic_data usages from common code (mainly in mcdi_filters.c) into nic_type functions, in preparation for the upcoming ef100 driver which will use those functions but have its own struct layout for efx->nic_data distinct from ef10's. After this series, one nic_data usage (in ptp.c) remains; it wasn't clear to me how to fix it, and ef100 devices don't yet have PTP support (so the initial ef100 driver will not call that code). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Bhupesh Sharma says: ==================== net: Optimize the qed* allocations inside kdump kernel Changes since v1: ---------------- - v1 can be seen here: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2020-May/024935.html - Addressed review comments received on v1: * Removed unnecessary paranthesis. * Used a different macro for minimum RX/TX ring count value in kdump kernel. Since kdump kernel(s) run under severe memory constraint with the basic idea being to save the crashdump vmcore reliably when the primary kernel panics/hangs, large memory allocations done by a network driver can cause the crashkernel to panic with OOM. The qed* drivers take up approximately 214MB memory when run in the kdump kernel with the default configuration settings presently used in the driver. With an usual crashkernel size of 512M, this allocation is equal to almost half of the total crashkernel size allocated. See some logs obtained via memstrack tool (see [1]) below: dracut-pre-pivot[676]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qed using 149.6MB (2394 pages), peak allocation 149.6MB (2394 pages) dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qede using 65.3MB (1045 pages), peak allocation 65.3MB (1045 pages) This patchset tries to reduce the overall memory allocation profile of the qed* driver when they run in the kdump kernel. With these optimization we can see a saving of approx 85M in the kdump kernel: dracut-pre-pivot[671]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[671]: Module qed using 124.6MB (1993 pages), peak allocation 124.7MB (1995 pages) <..snip..> dracut-pre-pivot[671]: Module qede using 4.6MB (73 pages), peak allocation 4.6MB (74 pages) And the kdump kernel can save vmcore successfully via both ssh and nfs interfaces. This patchset contains two patches: [PATCH 1/2] - Reduces the default TX and RX ring count in kdump kernel. [PATCH 2/2] - Disables qed SRIOV feature in kdump kernel (as it is normally not a supported kdump target for saving vmcore). [1].

Since we have kdump kernel(s) running under severe memory constraint it makes sense to disable the qed SRIOV functionality when running the kdump kernel as kdump configurations on several distributions don't support SRIOV targets for saving the vmcore (see [1] for example). Currently the qed SRIOV functionality ends up consuming memory in the kdump kernel, when we don't really use the same. An example log seen in the kdump kernel with the SRIOV functionality enabled can be seen below (obtained via memstrack tool, see [2]): dracut-pre-pivot[676]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qed using 149.6MB (2394 pages), peak allocation 149.6MB (2394 pages) This patch disables the SRIOV functionality inside kdump kernel and with the same applied the memory consumption goes down: dracut-pre-pivot[671]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[671]: Module qed using 124.6MB (1993 pages), peak allocation 124.7MB (1995 pages) [1]. https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/8/html/managing_monitoring_and_updating_the_kernel/installing-and-configuring-kdump_managing-monitoring-and-updating-the-kernel#supported-kdump-targets_supported-kdump-configurations-and-targets [2].

Normally kdump kernel(s) run under severe memory constraint with the basic idea being to save the crashdump vmcore reliably when the primary kernel panics/hangs. Currently the qed* ethernet driver ends up consuming a lot of memory in the kdump kernel, leading to kdump kernel panic when one tries to save the vmcore via ssh/nfs (thus utilizing the services of the underlying qed* network interfaces). An example OOM message log seen in the kdump kernel can be seen here [1], with crashkernel size reservation of 512M. Using tools like memstrack (see [2]), we can track the modules taking up the bulk of memory in the kdump kernel and organize the memory usage output as per 'highest allocator first'. An example log for the OOM case indicates that the qed* modules end up allocating approximately 216M memory, which is a large part of the total crashkernel size: dracut-pre-pivot[676]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qed using 149.6MB (2394 pages), peak allocation 149.6MB (2394 pages) dracut-pre-pivot[676]: Module qede using 65.3MB (1045 pages), peak allocation 65.3MB (1045 pages) This patch reduces the default RX and TX ring count from 1024 to 64 when running inside kdump kernel, which leads to a significant memory saving. An example log with the patch applied shows the reduced memory allocation in the kdump kernel: dracut-pre-pivot[674]: ======== Report format module_summary: ======== dracut-pre-pivot[674]: Module qed using 141.8MB (2268 pages), peak allocation 141.8MB (2268 pages) <..snip..> [dracut-pre-pivot[674]: Module qede using 4.8MB (76 pages), peak allocation 4.9MB (78 pages) Tested crashdump vmcore save via ssh/nfs protocol using underlying qed* network interface after applying this patch.

Vladimir Oltean says: ==================== This series adds support for boards where DSA switches of multiple types are cascaded together. Actually this type of setup was brought up before on netdev, and it looks like utilizing disjoint trees is the way to go: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/7/7/225 The trouble with disjoint trees (prior to this patch series) is that only bridging of ports within the same hardware switch can be offloaded. After scratching my head for a while, it looks like the easiest way to support hardware bridging between different DSA trees is to bridge their DSA masters and extend the crosschip bridging operations. I have given some thought to bridging the DSA masters with the slaves themselves, but given the hardware topology described in the commit message of patch 4/4, virtually any number (and combination) of bridges (forwarding domains) can be created on top of those 3x4-port front-panel switches. So it becomes a lot less obvious, when the front-panel ports are enslaved to more than 1 bridge, which bridge should the DSA masters be enslaved to. So the least awkward approach was to just create a completely separate bridge for the DSA masters, whose entire purpose is to permit hardware forwarding between the discrete switches beneath it. This is a direct resend of v3, which was deferred due to lack of review. In the meantime Florian has reviewed and tested some of them. v1 was submitted here: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/cover/20200429161952.17769-1-olteanv@gmail.com/ v2 was submitted here: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/cover/20200430202542.11797-1-olteanv@gmail.com/ v3 was submitted here: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/cover/20200503221228.10928-1-olteanv@gmail.com/ ==================== Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

sja1105 uses dsa_8021q for DSA tagging, a format which is VLAN at heart and which is compatible with cascading. A complete description of this tagging format is in net/dsa/tag_8021q.c, but a quick summary is that each external-facing port tags incoming frames with a unique pvid, and this special VLAN is transmitted as tagged towards the inside of the system, and as untagged towards the exterior. The tag encodes the switch id and the source port index. This means that cross-chip bridging for dsa_8021q only entails adding the dsa_8021q pvids of one switch to the RX filter of the other switches. Everything else falls naturally into place, as long as the bottom-end of ports (the leaves in the tree) is comprised exclusively of dsa_8021q-compatible (i.e. sja1105 switches). Otherwise, there would be a chance that a front-panel switch transmits a packet tagged with a dsa_8021q header, header which it wouldn't be able to remove, and which would hence "leak" out. The only use case I tested (due to lack of board availability) was when the sja1105 switches are part of disjoint trees (however, this doesn't change the fact that multiple sja1105 switches still need unique switch identifiers in such a system). But in principle, even "true" single-tree setups (with DSA links) should work just as fine, except for a small change which I can't test: dsa_towards_port should be used instead of dsa_upstream_port (I made the assumption that the routing port that any sja1105 should use towards its neighbours is the CPU port. That might not hold true in other setups).

Somewhat similar to dsa_tree_find, dsa_switch_find returns a dsa_switch structure pointer by searching for its tree index and switch index (the parameters from dsa,member). To be used, for example, by drivers who implement .crosschip_bridge_join and need a reference to the other switch indicated to by the tree_index and sw_index arguments.

One way of utilizing DSA is by cascading switches which do not all have compatible taggers. Consider the following real-life topology: +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | LS1028A | | +------------------------------+ | | | DSA master for Felix | | | |(internal ENETC port 2: eno2))| | | +------------+------------------------------+-------------+ | | | Felix embedded L2 switch | | | | | | | | +--------------+ +--------------+ +--------------+ | | | | |DSA master for| |DSA master for| |DSA master for| | | | | | SJA1105 1 | | SJA1105 2 | | SJA1105 3 | | | | | |(Felix port 1)| |(Felix port 2)| |(Felix port 3)| | | +--+-+--------------+---+--------------+---+--------------+--+--+ +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ +-----------------------+ | SJA1105 switch 1 | | SJA1105 switch 2 | | SJA1105 switch 3 | +-----+-----+-----+-----+ +-----+-----+-----+-----+ +-----+-----+-----+-----+ |sw1p0|sw1p1|sw1p2|sw1p3| |sw2p0|sw2p1|sw2p2|sw2p3| |sw3p0|sw3p1|sw3p2|sw3p3| +-----+-----+-----+-----+ +-----+-----+-----+-----+ +-----+-----+-----+-----+ The above can be described in the device tree as follows (obviously not complete): mscc_felix { dsa,member = <0 0>; ports { port@4 { ethernet = <&enetc_port2>; }; }; }; sja1105_switch1 { dsa,member = <1 1>; ports { port@4 { ethernet = <&mscc_felix_port1>; }; }; }; sja1105_switch2 { dsa,member = <2 2>; ports { port@4 { ethernet = <&mscc_felix_port2>; }; }; }; sja1105_switch3 { dsa,member = <3 3>; ports { port@4 { ethernet = <&mscc_felix_port3>; }; }; }; Basically we instantiate one DSA switch tree for every hardware switch in the system, but we still give them globally unique switch IDs (will come back to that later). Having 3 disjoint switch trees makes the tagger drivers "just work", because net devices are registered for the 3 Felix DSA master ports, and they are also DSA slave ports to the ENETC port. So packets received on the ENETC port are stripped of their stacked DSA tags one by one. Currently, hardware bridging between ports on the same sja1105 chip is possible, but switching between sja1105 ports on different chips is handled by the software bridge. This is fine, but we can do better. In fact, the dsa_8021q tag used by sja1105 is compatible with cascading. In other words, a sja1105 switch can correctly parse and route a packet containing a dsa_8021q tag. So if we could enable hardware bridging on the Felix DSA master ports, cross-chip bridging could be completely offloaded. Such as system would be used as follows: ip link add dev br0 type bridge && ip link set dev br0 up for port in sw0p0 sw0p1 sw0p2 sw0p3 \ sw1p0 sw1p1 sw1p2 sw1p3 \ sw2p0 sw2p1 sw2p2 sw2p3; do ip link set dev $port master br0 done The above makes switching between ports on the same row be performed in hardware, and between ports on different rows in software. Now assume the Felix switch ports are called swp0, swp1, swp2. By running the following extra commands: ip link add dev br1 type bridge && ip link set dev br1 up for port in swp0 swp1 swp2; do ip link set dev $port master br1 done the CPU no longer sees packets which traverse sja1105 switch boundaries and can be forwarded directly by Felix. The br1 bridge would not be used for any sort of traffic termination. For this to work, we need to give drivers an opportunity to listen for bridging events on DSA trees other than their own, and pass that other tree index as argument. I have made the assumption, for the moment, that the other existing DSA notifiers don't need to be broadcast to other trees. That assumption might turn out to be incorrect. But in the meantime, introduce a dsa_broadcast function, similar in purpose to dsa_port_notify, which is used only by the bridging notifiers.

Commit 8db0a2ee ("net: bridge: reject DSA-enabled master netdevices as bridge members") added a special check in br_if.c in order to check for a DSA master network device with a tagging protocol configured. This was done because back then, such devices, once enslaved in a bridge would become inoperative and would not pass DSA tagged traffic anymore due to br_handle_frame returning RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED. But right now we have valid use cases which do require bridging of DSA masters. One such example is when the DSA master ports are DSA switch ports themselves (in a disjoint tree setup). This should be completely equivalent, functionally speaking, from having multiple DSA switches hanging off of the ports of a switchdev driver. So we should allow the enslaving of DSA tagged master network devices. Instead of the regular br_handle_frame(), install a new function br_handle_frame_dummy() on these DSA masters, which returns RX_HANDLER_PASS in order to call into the DSA specific tagging protocol handlers, and lift the restriction from br_add_if.

The 802.3 specification does not specify the behavior of auto-negotiation off with 1000M in PHY. Therefore, some PHY compatibility issues occur. This patch forbids the setting of this unreasonable mode by ethtool in driver.
