Checksum offloading for send and receive is already supported for layer 3 (IP layer). This patch adds support for RX and TX hardware checksum offloading for layer 2 (MAC layer). The hardware calculates the checksum for IP UDP and TCP packets. This patch moves the hardware checksum offloading setup to the set of common functions in qeth_core_main.c. Layer 2 and layer 3 now simply call the same common functions. Also note that TX checksum offloading is always enabled. The device driver relies on the TCP/IP stack to make use of this feature.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-09-17 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Shannon provides updates to i40e and i40evf to resolve an issue with the nvmupdate utility. First renames a variable name to reduce confusion and to differentiate it from the actual user variable. Then added the ability to save the admin queue write back descriptor if a caller supplies a buffer for it to be saved into. Added a new GetStatus command so that the NVM update tool can query the current status instead of doing fake write requests to probe for readiness. Added wait states to the NVM update state machine to signify when waiting for an update operation to finish, whether we are in the middle of a set of write operations, or we are now idle but waiting. Then added a facility to run admin queue commands through the NVM update utility in order to allow the update tools to interact with the firmware and do special commands needed for updates and configuration changes. Also added a facility to recover the result of a previously run admin queue command. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

huangdaode authored
The Hisilicon Network Subsystem is a long term evolution IP which is supposed to be used in Hisilicon ICT SoC. The IP, which is called hns for short, is a TCP/IP acceleration engine, which can directly decode TCP/IP stream and distribute them to different ring buffers. HNS can be configured to work on different mode for different scenario. This patch make use only some of the mode to make it as standard ethernet NIC. The other mode will be added soon. The whole function has 4 kernel sub-modules: hnae: the HNS acceleration engine framework. It provides a abstract interface between the engine and the upper layers which make use of the engine by ring buffer. hns_enet_drv: a standard ethernet driver that base on the ring buffer. hns_dsaf: one of the implementation of HNS acceleration engine, which is applied on Hililicon hip05, Hi1610 and other later-on SoCs hns_mdio: the mdio control to the PHY, used by acceleration engine This submit add basic config and documents Signed-off-by:

Florian Fainelli authored
Add support for the ethtool rx-frames coalescing parameter which allows defining the number of RX interrupts per frames received. The RDMA engine supports a configurable timeout with a resolution of approximately 8.192 us. We can no longer enable the BDONE/PDONE interrupts as those would fire for each packet/buffer received, which would defeat the MBDONE interrupt purpose. The MBDONE interrupt is guaranteed to correspond to a PDONE/BDONE interrupt when the threshold is set to 1. Signed-off-by:

Florian Fainelli authored
Configuring the ethtool tx-frames property, which translates into N packets before a TX interrupt is the simplest configuration scheme because it requires no locking neither at the softare nor hardware level, and is completely indepedent from the link speed. Since ethtool does not allow per-tx queue coalescing parameters, we apply the same setting to any transmit queue. We can no longer enable the BDONE/PDONE interrupts as those would fire for each packet/buffer received, which would defeat the MBDONE interrupt purpose. The MBDONE interrupt is guaranteed to correspond to a PDONE/BDONE interrupt when the threshold is set to 1, but offers interrupt coalescing when the value is > 1. Since the HW is configured to generate an interrupt when the ring becomes emtpy, we have to deny any timeout/timer settings coming from user-space to indicate we can only generate an interrupt very <N> packets. While we are at it, fix the DMA_INTR_THRESHOLD_MASK value which was off by one bit (0xff vs. 0x1ff). Signed-off-by:

Existing bpf_clone_redirect() helper clones skb before redirecting it to RX or TX of destination netdev. Introduce bpf_redirect() helper that does that without cloning. Benchmarked with two hosts using 10G ixgbe NICs. One host is doing line rate pktgen. Another host is configured as: $ tc qdisc add dev $dev ingress $ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:2 \ action bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section clone_redirect_xmit drop so it receives the packet on $dev and immediately xmits it on $dev + 1 The section 'clone_redirect_xmit' in tcbpf1_kern.o file has the program that does bpf_clone_redirect() and performance is 2.0 Mpps $ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:2 \ action bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section redirect_xmit drop which is using bpf_redirect() - 2.4 Mpps and using cls_bpf with integrated actions as: $ tc filter add dev $dev root pref 10 \ bpf run object-file tcbpf1_kern.o section redirect_xmit integ_act classid 1 performance is 2.5 Mpps To summarize: u32+act_bpf using clone_redirect - 2.0 Mpps u32+act_bpf using redirect - 2.4 Mpps cls_bpf using redirect - 2.5 Mpps For comparison linux bridge in this setup is doing 2.1 Mpps and ixgbe rx + drop in ip_rcv - 7.8 Mpps Signed-off-by:

Often cls_bpf classifier is used with single action drop attached. Optimize this use case and let cls_bpf return both classid and action. For backwards compatibility reasons enable this feature under TCA_BPF_FLAG_ACT_DIRECT flag. Then more interesting programs like the following are easier to write: int cls_bpf_prog(struct __sk_buff *skb) { /* classify arp, ip, ipv6 into different traffic classes * and drop all other packets */ switch (skb->protocol) { case htons(ETH_P_ARP): skb->tc_classid = 1; break; case htons(ETH_P_IP): skb->tc_classid = 2; break; case htons(ETH_P_IPV6): skb->tc_classid = 3; break; default: return TC_ACT_SHOT; } return TC_ACT_OK; } Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

In commit b73c3d0e ("net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit"), Tom provided a l4 hash to most outgoing TCP packets. We'd like to provide one as well for SYNACK packets, so that all packets of a given flow share same txhash, to later enable bonding driver to also use skb->hash to perform slave selection. Note that a SYNACK retransmit shuffles the tx hash, as Tom did in commit 265f94ff ("net: Recompute sk_txhash on negative routing advice") for established sockets. This has nice effect making TCP flows resilient to some kind of black holes, even at connection establish phase. Signed-off-by:
