Commit 406f42fa ("net-next: When a bond have a massive amount of VLANs...") introduced a rbtree for faster Ethernet address look up. To maintain netdev->dev_addr in this tree we need to make all the writes to it got through appropriate helpers. Read the address into an array on the stack, then call eth_hw_addr_set().

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-updates-2021-10-15 1) From Rongwei Liu: Use system_image_guid and native_port_num when bonding. Don't relay on PCIe ids anymore. With some specific NIC, the physical devices may have PCIe IDs like 0001:01:00.0/1 and 0002:02:00.0/1. All of these devices should have the same system_image_guid and device index can be queried from native_port_num. For matching sibling devices/port of the same HCA, compare the HCA GUID reported on each device rather than just assuming PCIe ids have similar attributes. 2) From Amir Tzin: Use HCA defined Timouts Replace hard coded timeouts with values stored by firmware in default timeouts register (DTOR). Timeouts are read during driver load. If DTOR is not supported by firmware then fallback to hard coded defaults instead. 3) From Shay Drory: Disable roce at HCA level Disable RoCE in Firmware when devlink roce parameter is set to off. 4) A small set of trivial cleanups ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The current default does not allowing additional subflows, mostly as a safety restriction to avoid uncontrolled resource consumption on busy servers. Still the system admin and/or the application have to opt-in to MPTCP explicitly. After that, they need to change (increase) the default maximum number of additional subflows. Let set that to reasonable default, and make end-users life easier. Additionally we need to update some self-tests accordingly.

As noted in the "Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions" documentation [1], size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other misbehaviors. So, refactor the code a bit to use the purpose specific kcalloc() function instead of the argument size * count in the kzalloc() function.

Under rare circumstances there might be a situation where a requirement of having XDP Tx queue per CPU could not be fulfilled and some of the Tx resources have to be shared between CPUs. This yields a need for placing accesses to xdp_ring inside a critical section protected by spinlock. These accesses happen to be in the hot path, so let's introduce the static branch that will be triggered from the control plane when driver could not provide Tx queue dedicated for XDP on each CPU. Currently, the design that has been picked is to allow any number of XDP Tx queues that is at least half of a count of CPUs that platform has. For lower number driver will bail out with a response to user that there were not enough Tx resources that would allow configuring XDP. The sharing of rings is signalled via static branch enablement which in turn indicates that lock for xdp_ring accesses needs to be taken in hot path. Approach based on static branch has no impact on performance of a non-fallback path. One thing that is needed to be mentioned is a fact that the static branch will act as a global driver switch, meaning that if one PF got out of Tx resources, then other PFs that ice driver is servicing will suffer. However, given the fact that HW that ice driver is handling has 1024 Tx queues per each PF, this is currently an unlikely scenario.

Optimize Tx descriptor cleaning for XDP. Current approach doesn't really scale and chokes when multiple flows are handled. Introduce two ring fields, @next_dd and @next_rs that will keep track of descriptor that should be looked at when the need for cleaning arise and the descriptor that should have the RS bit set, respectively. Note that at this point the threshold is a constant (32), but it is something that we could make configurable. First thing is to get away from setting RS bit on each descriptor. Let's do this only once NTU is higher than the currently @next_rs value. In such case, grab the tx_desc[next_rs], set the RS bit in descriptor and advance the @next_rs by a 32. Second thing is to clean the Tx ring only when there are less than 32 free entries. For that case, look up the tx_desc[next_dd] for a DD bit. This bit is written back by HW to let the driver know that xmit was successful. It will happen only for those descriptors that had RS bit set. Clean only 32 descriptors and advance the DD bit. Actual cleaning routine is moved from ice_napi_poll() down to the ice_xmit_xdp_ring(). It is safe to do so as XDP ring will not get any SKBs in there that would rely on interrupts for the cleaning. Nice side effect is that for rare case of Tx fallback path (that next patch is going to introduce) we don't have to trigger the SW irq to clean the ring. With those two concepts, ring is kept at being almost full, but it is guaranteed that driver will be able to produce Tx descriptors. This approach seems to work out well even though the Tx descriptors are produced in one-by-one manner. Test was conducted with the ice HW bombarded with packets from HW generator, configured to generate 30 flows. Xdp2 sample yields the following results: <snip> proto 17: 79973066 pkt/s proto 17: 80018911 pkt/s proto 17: 80004654 pkt/s proto 17: 79992395 pkt/s proto 17: 79975162 pkt/s proto 17: 79955054 pkt/s proto 17: 79869168 pkt/s proto 17: 79823947 pkt/s proto 17: 79636971 pkt/s </snip> As that sample reports the Rx'ed frames, let's look at sar output. It says that what we Rx'ed we do actually Tx, no noticeable drops.

With rings being split, it is now convenient to introduce a pointer to XDP ring within the Rx ring. For XDP_TX workloads this means that xdp_rings array access will be skipped, which was executed per each processed frame. Also, read the XDP prog once per NAPI and if prog is present, set up the local xdp_ring pointer. Reading prog a single time was discussed in [1] with some concern raised by Toke around dispatcher handling and having the need for going through the RCU grace period in the ndo_bpf driver callback, but ice currently is torning down NAPI instances regardless of the prog presence on VSI. Although the pointer to XDP ring introduced to Rx ring makes things a lot slimmer/simpler, I still feel that single prog read per NAPI lifetime is beneficial. Further patch that will introduce the fallback path will also get a profit from that as xdp_ring pointer will be set during the XDP rings setup.

xdp_frame is not needed for XDP_TX data path in ice driver case. For this data path cleaning of sent descriptor will not happen anywhere outside of the driver, which means that carrying the information about the underlying memory model via xdp_frame will not be used. Therefore, this conversion can be simply dropped, which would relieve CPU a bit.

There has been a long lasting issue of improper xdp_rings indexing for XDP_TX and XDP_REDIRECT actions. Given that currently rx_ring->q_index is mixed with smp_processor_id(), there could be a situation where Tx descriptors are produced onto XDP Tx ring, but tail is never bumped - for example pin a particular queue id to non-matching IRQ line. Address this problem by ignoring the user ring count setting and always initialize the xdp_rings array to be of num_possible_cpus() size. Then, always use the smp_processor_id() as an index to xdp_rings array. This provides serialization as at given time only a single softirq can run on a particular CPU.

While it was convenient to have a generic ring structure that served both Tx and Rx sides, next commits are going to introduce several Tx-specific fields, so in order to avoid hurting the Rx side, let's pull out the Tx ring onto new ice_tx_ring and ice_rx_ring structs. Rx ring could be handled by the old ice_ring which would reduce the code churn within this patch, but this would make things asymmetric. Make the union out of the ring container within ice_q_vector so that it is possible to iterate over newly introduced ice_tx_ring. Remove the @size as it's only accessed from control path and it can be calculated pretty easily. Change definitions of ice_update_ring_stats and ice_fetch_u64_stats_per_ring so that they are ring agnostic and can be used for both Rx and Tx rings. Sizes of Rx and Tx ring structs are 256 and 192 bytes, respectively. In Rx ring xdp_rxq_info occupies its own cacheline, so it's the major difference now.

Currently ice_container_type is scoped only for ice_ethtool.c. Next commit that will split the ice_ring struct onto Rx/Tx specific ring structs is going to also modify the type of linked list of rings that is within ice_ring_container. Therefore, the functions that are taking the ice_ring_container as an input argument will need to be aware of a ring type that will be looked up. Embed ice_container_type within ice_ring_container and initialize it properly when allocating the q_vectors.

Add TCA_FQ_CODEL_CE_THRESHOLD_ECT1 boolean option to select Low Latency, Low Loss, Scalable Throughput (L4S) style marking, along with ce_threshold. If enabled, only packets with ECT(1) can be transformed to CE if their sojourn time is above the ce_threshold. Note that this new option does not change rules for codel law. In particular, if TCA_FQ_CODEL_ECN is left enabled (this is the default when fq_codel qdisc is created), ECT(0) packets can still get CE if codel law (as governed by limit/target) decides so. Section 4.3.b of current draft [1] states: b. A scheduler with per-flow queues such as FQ-CoDel or FQ-PIE can be used for L4S. For instance within each queue of an FQ-CoDel system, as well as a CoDel AQM, there is typically also ECN marking at an immediate (unsmoothed) shallow threshold to support use in data centres (see Sec.5.2.7 of [RFC8290]). This can be modified so that the shallow threshold is solely applied to ECT(1) packets. Then if there is a flow of non-ECN or ECT(0) packets in the per-flow-queue, the Classic AQM (e.g. CoDel) is applied; while if there is a flow of ECT(1) packets in the queue, the shallower (typically sub-millisecond) threshold is applied.
