gpio_to_irq does not return NO_IRQ but instead returns a negative error code on failure. Returning NO_IRQ from the function has no negative effects as we only compare the result to the expected interrupt number, but it's better to return a proper failure code for consistency, and we should remove NO_IRQ from the kernel entirely.

The newly added bpf_overflow_handler function is only built of both CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING and CONFIG_BPF_SYSCALL are enabled, but the caller only checks the latter: kernel/events/core.c: In function 'perf_event_alloc': kernel/events/core.c:9106:27: error: 'bpf_overflow_handler' undeclared (first use in this function) This changes the caller so we also skip this call if CONFIG_EVENT_TRACING is disabled entirely.

Depending on the preempt mode, the bpf_prog stored in xdp_prog may be freed despite the use of call_rcu inside bpf_prog_put. The situation is possible when running in PREEMPT_RCU=y mode, for instance, since the rcu callback for destroying the bpf prog can run even during the bh handling in the mlx4 rx path. Several options were considered before this patch was settled on: Add a napi_synchronize loop in mlx4_xdp_set, which would occur after all of the rings are updated with the new program. This approach has the disadvantage that as the number of rings increases, the speed of update will slow down significantly due to napi_synchronize's msleep(1). Add a new rcu_head in bpf_prog_aux, to be used by a new bpf_prog_put_bh. The action of the bpf_prog_put_bh would be to then call bpf_prog_put later. Those drivers that consume a bpf prog in a bh context (like mlx4) would then use the bpf_prog_put_bh instead when the ring is up. This has the problem of complexity, in maintaining proper refcnts and rcu lists, and would likely be harder to review. In addition, this approach to freeing must be exclusive with other frees of the bpf prog, for instance a _bh prog must not be referenced from a prog array that is consumed by a non-_bh prog. The placement of rcu_read_lock in this patch is functionally the same as putting an rcu_read_lock in napi_poll. Actually doing so could be a potentially controversial change, but would bring the implementation in line with sk_busy_loop (though of course the nature of those two paths is substantially different), and would also avoid future copy/paste problems with future supporters of XDP. Still, this patch does not take that opinionated option. Testing was done with kernels in either PREEMPT_RCU=y or CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y+PREEMPT_RCU=n modes, with neither exhibiting any drawback. With PREEMPT_RCU=n, the extra call to rcu_read_lock did not show up in the perf report whatsoever, and with PREEMPT_RCU=y the overhead of rcu_read_lock (according to perf) was the same before/after. In the rx path, rcu_read_lock is eventually called for every packet from netif_receive_skb_internal, so the napi poll call's rcu_read_lock is easily amortized. v2: Remove extra rcu_read_lock in mlx4_en_process_rx_cq body Annotate xdp_prog with __rcu, and convert all usages to rcu_assign or rcu_dereference[_protected] as appropriate. Add explicit mutex lock around rcu_assign instead of xchg loop.

The patch adds support for aggregating more SKBs feed into NAPI in order to get more benefits from generic receive offload (GRO) by peeking at the RX ring status and moving more packets right before returning from NAPI RX polling handler if NAPI budgets are still available and some packets already present in hardware.

The patch makes move wmb() to outside the loop that could help RX path handling more faster although that RX descriptors aren't freed for DMA to use as soon as possible, but based on my experiment and the result shows it still can reach about 943Mbpis without performance drop that is tested based on the setup with one port using Giga PHY and 256 RX descriptors for DMA to move.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: isolate Global2 support Registers of Marvell chips are organized in internal SMI devices. One of them at address 0x1C is called Global2. It provides an extended set of registers, used for interrupt control, EEPROM access, indirect PHY access (to bypass the PHY Polling Unit) and cross-chip setup. Most chips have it, but some others don't (older ones such as 6060). Now that its related code is isolated in mv88e6xxx_g2_* functions, move it to its own global2.c file, making most of its setup code static. Then make its compilation optional, which allows to reduce the size of the mv88e6xxx driver for devices such as home routers embedding Ethernet chips without Global2 support. It is present on most recent chips, thus enable its support by default. Changes in v2: fail probe if GLOBAL2 is required but not enabled. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree. Most relevant updates are the removal of per-conntrack timers to use a workqueue/garbage collection approach instead from Florian Westphal, the hash and numgen expression for nf_tables from Laura Garcia, updates on nf_tables hash set to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag, removal of ip_conntrack sysctl and many other incremental updates on our Netfilter codebase. More specifically, they are: 1) Retrieve only 4 bytes to fetch ports in case of non-linear skb transport area in dccp, sctp, tcp, udp and udplite protocol conntrackers, from Gao Feng. 2) Missing whitespace on error message in physdev match, from Hangbin Liu. 3) Skip redundant IPv4 checksum calculation in nf_dup_ipv4, from Liping Zhang. 4) Add nf_ct_expires() helper function and use it, from Florian Westphal. 5) Replace opencoded nf_ct_kill() call in IPVS conntrack support, also from Florian. 6) Rename nf_tables set implementation to nft_set_{name}.c 7) Introduce the hash expression to allow arbitrary hashing of selector concatenations, from Laura Garcia Liebana. 8) Remove ip_conntrack sysctl backward compatibility code, this code has been around for long time already, and we have two interfaces to do this already: nf_conntrack sysctl and ctnetlink. 9) Use nf_conntrack_get_ht() helper function whenever possible, instead of opencoding fetch of hashtable pointer and size, patch from Liping Zhang. 10) Add quota expression for nf_tables. 11) Add number generator expression for nf_tables, this supports incremental and random generators that can be combined with maps, very useful for load balancing purpose, again from Laura Garcia Liebana. 12) Fix a typo in a debug message in FTP conntrack helper, from Colin Ian King. 13) Introduce a nft_chain_parse_hook() helper function to parse chain hook configuration, this is used by a follow up patch to perform better chain update validation. 14) Add rhashtable_lookup_get_insert_key() to rhashtable and use it from the nft_set_hash implementation to honor the NLM_F_EXCL flag. 15) Missing nulls check in nf_conntrack from nf_conntrack_tuple_taken(), patch from Florian Westphal. 16) Don't use the DYING bit to know if the conntrack event has been already delivered, instead a state variable to track event re-delivery states, also from Florian. 17) Remove the per-conntrack timer, use the workqueue approach that was discussed during the NFWS, from Florian Westphal. 18) Use the netlink conntrack table dump path to kill stale entries, again from Florian. 19) Add a garbage collector to get rid of stale conntracks, from Florian. 20) Reschedule garbage collector if eviction rate is high. 21) Get rid of the __nf_ct_kill_acct() helper. 22) Use ARPHRD_ETHER instead of hardcoded 1 from ARP logger. 23) Make nf_log_set() interface assertive on unsupported families. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
