On RX an SKB is allocated and the received buffer is copied into it. But on some architectures, the memcpy() needs the source and destination buffers to have the same alignment to be efficient. This is not our case, because SKB data pointer is misaligned by two bytes to compensate the ethernet header. Align the RX buffer the same way as the SKB one, so the copy is faster. An iperf3 RX test gives a decent improvement on a RISC-V machine: before: [ ID] Interval Transfer Bitrate Retr [ 5] 0.00-10.00 sec 733 MBytes 615 Mbits/sec 88 sender [ 5] 0.00-10.01 sec 730 MBytes 612 Mbits/sec receiver after: [ ID] Interval Transfer Bitrate Retr [ 5] 0.00-10.00 sec 1.10 GBytes 942 Mbits/sec 0 sender [ 5] 0.00-10.00 sec 1.09 GBytes 940 Mbits/sec receiver And the memcpy() overhead during the RX drops dramatically. before: Overhead Shared O Symbol 43.35% [kernel] [k] memcpy 33.77% [kernel] [k] __asm_copy_to_user 3.64% [kernel] [k] sifive_l2_flush64_range after: Overhead Shared O Symbol 45.40% [kernel] [k] __asm_copy_to_user 28.09% [kernel] [k] memcpy 4.27% [kernel] [k] sifive_l2_flush64_range Signed-off-by: Matteo Croce <mcroce@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

After the blamed patch, __skb_flow_dissect() on the DSA master stopped adjusting for the length of the DSA headers. This is because it was told to adjust only if the needed_headroom is zero, aka if there is no DSA header. Of course, the adjustment should be done only if there _is_ a DSA header. Modify the comment too so it is clearer.

The SJA1110 switch integrates TJA1103 PHYs, but in SJA1110 switch rev B silicon, there is a bug in that the registers for selecting the 100base-T1 autoneg master/slave roles are not writable. To enable write access to the master/slave registers, these additional PHY writes are necessary during initialization. The issue has been corrected in later SJA1110 silicon versions and is not present in the standalone PHY variants, but applying the workaround unconditionally in the driver should not do any harm.

The reconstruction procedure for partial timestamps reads the current PTP time and fills in the low 2 bits of the second portion, as well as the nanoseconds portion, from the actual hardware packet timestamp. Critically, the reconstruction procedure works because it assumes that the current PTP time is strictly larger than the hardware timestamp was: it detects a 2-bit wraparound of the 'seconds' portion by checking whether the 'seconds' portion of the partial hardware timestamp is larger than the 'seconds' portion of the current time. That can only happen if the hardware timestamp was captured by the PHY during the last phase of a 'modulo 4 seconds' interval, and the current PTP time was read by the driver during the initial phase of the next 'modulo 4 seconds' interval. The partial RX timestamps are added to priv->rx_queue in nxp_c45_rxtstamp() and they are processed potentially in parallel by the aux worker thread in nxp_c45_do_aux_work(). This means that it is possible for nxp_c45_do_aux_work() to process more than one RX timestamp during the same schedule. There is one premature optimization that will cause issues: for RX timestamping, the driver reads the current time only once, and it uses that to reconstruct all PTP RX timestamps in the queue. For the second and later timestamps, this will be an issue if we are processing two RX timestamps which are to the left and to the right, respectively, of a 4-bit wraparound of the 'seconds' portion of the PTP time, and the current PTP time is also pre-wraparound. 0.000000000 4.000000000 8.000000000 12.000000000 |..................|..................|..................|............> ^ ^ ^ ^ time | | | | | | | process hwts 1 and hwts 2 | | | | | hwts 2 | | | read current PTP time | hwts 1 What will happen in that case is that hwts 2 (post-wraparound) will use a stale current PTP time that is pre-wraparound. But nxp_c45_reconstruct_ts will not detect this condition, because it is not coded up for it, so it will reconstruct hwts 2 with a current time from the previous 4 second interval (i.e. 0.something instead of 4.something). This is solvable by making sure that the full 64-bit current time is always read after the PHY has taken the partial RX timestamp. We do this by reading the current PTP time for every timestamp in the RX queue.

nxp_c45_reconstruct_ts() takes a partial hardware timestamp in @hwts, with 2 bits of the 'seconds' portion, and a full PTP time in @ts. It patches in the lower bits of @hwts into @ts, and to ensure that the reconstructed timestamp is correct, it checks whether the lower 2 bits of @hwts are not in fact higher than the lower 2 bits of @ts. This is not logically possible because, according to the calling convention, @ts was collected later in time than @hwts, but due to two's complement arithmetic it can actually happen, because the current PTP time might have wrapped around between when @hwts was collected and when @ts was, yielding the lower 2 bits of @ts smaller than those of @hwts. To correct for that situation which is expected to happen under normal conditions, the driver subtracts exactly one wraparound interval from the reconstructed timestamp, since the upper bits of that need to correspond to what the upper bits of @hwts were, not to what the upper bits of @ts were. Readers might be confused because the driver denotes the amount of bits that the partial hardware timestamp has to offer as TS_SEC_MASK (timestamp mask for seconds). But it subtracts a seemingly unrelated BIT(2), which is in fact more subtle: if the hardware timestamp provides 2 bits of partial 'seconds' timestamp, then the wraparound interval is 2^2 == BIT(2). But nonetheless, it is better to express the wraparound interval in terms of a definition we already have, so replace BIT(2) with 1 + GENMASK(1, 0) which produces the same result but is clearer.

This patch series implement Prestera Switchdev driver devlink traps, that are registered within the driver, as well as extend current devlink functionality by adding new hard drop statistics counter, that could be retrieved on-demand: the counter shows number of packets that have been dropped by the underlying device and haven't been passed to the devlink subsystem. The core prestera-devlink functionality is implemented in the prestera_devlink.c. The patch series also extends the existing devlink kernel API: - devlink: add trap_drop_counter_get callback for driver to register - make it possible to keep track of how many packets have been dropped (hard) by the switch device, before the packets even made it to the devlink subsystem (e.g. dropped due to RXDMA buffer overflow). The core features that extend current functionality of prestera Switchdev driver: - add logic for driver traps and drops registration (also traps with DROP action). - add documentation for prestera driver traps and drops group.

M Chetan Kumar says: ==================== net: iosm: PCIe Driver for Intel M.2 Modem The IOSM (IPC over Shared Memory) driver is a PCIe host driver implemented for linux or chrome platform for data exchange over PCIe interface between Host platform & Intel M.2 Modem. The driver exposes interface conforming to the MBIM protocol. Any front end application ( eg: Modem Manager) could easily manage the MBIM interface to enable data communication towards WWAN. Intel M.2 modem uses 2 BAR regions. The first region is dedicated to Doorbell register for IRQs and the second region is used as scratchpad area for book keeping modem execution stage details along with host system shared memory region context details. The upper edge of the driver exposes the control and data channels for user space application interaction. At lower edge these data and control channels are associated to pipes. The pipes are lowest level interfaces used over PCIe as a logical channel for message exchange. A single channel maps to UL and DL pipe and are initialized on device open. On UL path, driver copies application sent data to SKBs associate it with transfer descriptor and puts it on to ring buffer for DMA transfer. Once information has been updated in shared memory region, host gives a Doorbell to modem to perform DMA and modem uses MSI to communicate back to host. For receiving data in DL path, SKBs are pre-allocated during pipe open and transfer descriptors are given to modem for DMA transfer. The driver exposes two types of ports, namely "wwan0mbim0", a char device node which is used for MBIM control operation and "wwan0-x",(x = 0,1,2..7) network interfaces for IP data communication. 1) MBIM Control Interface: This node exposes an interface between modem and application using char device exposed by "IOSM" driver to establish and manage the MBIM data communication with PCIe based Intel M.2 Modems. 2) MBIM Data Interface: The IOSM driver exposes IP link interface "wwan0-x" of type "wwan" for IP traffic. Iproute network utility is used for creating "wwan0-x" network interface and for associating it with MBIM IP session. The Driver supports upto 8 IP sessions for simultaneous IP communication. This applies on top of WWAN core rtnetlink series posted here: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/1623486057-13075-1-git-send-email-loic.poulain@linaro.org/ Also driver has been compiled and tested on top of netdev net-next tree. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git/ ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
