Wei Wang says: ==================== net/tcp-fastopen: Add new userspace API support The patch series is to add support for new userspace API for TCP fastopen sockets. In the current code, user has to call sendto()/sendmsg() with special flag MSG_FASTOPEN for TCP fastopen sockets. This API is quite different from the normal TCP socket API and can be cumbersome for applications to make use fastopen sockets. So this new patch introduces a new way of using TCP fastopen sockets which is similar to normal TCP sockets with a new sockopt TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT. More details about it is described in the third patch. (First 2 patches are preparations for the third patch.) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch adds a new socket option, TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT, as an alternative way to perform Fast Open on the active side (client). Prior to this patch, a client needs to replace the connect() call with sendto(MSG_FASTOPEN). This can be cumbersome for applications who want to use Fast Open: these socket operations are often done in lower layer libraries used by many other applications. Changing these libraries and/or the socket call sequences are not trivial. A more convenient approach is to perform Fast Open by simply enabling a socket option when the socket is created w/o changing other socket calls sequence: s = socket() create a new socket setsockopt(s, IPPROTO_TCP, TCP_FASTOPEN_CONNECT …); newly introduced sockopt If set, new functionality described below will be used. Return ENOTSUPP if TFO is not supported or not enabled in the kernel. connect() With cookie present, return 0 immediately. With no cookie, initiate 3WHS with TFO cookie-request option and return -1 with errno = EINPROGRESS. write()/sendmsg() With cookie present, send out SYN with data and return the number of bytes buffered. With no cookie, and 3WHS not yet completed, return -1 with errno = EINPROGRESS. No MSG_FASTOPEN flag is needed. read() Return -1 with errno = EWOULDBLOCK/EAGAIN if connect() is called but write() is not called yet. Return -1 with errno = EWOULDBLOCK/EAGAIN if connection is established but no msg is received yet. Return number of bytes read if socket is established and there is msg received. The new API simplifies life for applications that always perform a write() immediately after a successful connect(). Such applications can now take advantage of Fast Open by merely making one new setsockopt() call at the time of creating the socket. Nothing else about the application's socket call sequence needs to change.

Remove __sk_dst_reset() in the failure handling because __sk_dst_reset() will eventually get called when sk is released. No need to handle it in the protocol specific connect call.

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== BPF tracepoints This set adds tracepoints to BPF for better introspection and debugging. The first two patches are prerequisite for the actual third patch that adds the tracepoints. I think the first two are small and straight forward enough that they could ideally go via net-next, but I'm also open to other suggestions on how to route them in case that's not applicable (it would reduce potential merge conflicts on BPF side, though). For details, please see individual patches. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This work adds a number of tracepoints to paths that are either considered slow-path or exception-like states, where monitoring or inspecting them would be desirable. For bpf(2) syscall, tracepoints have been placed for main commands when they succeed. In XDP case, tracepoint is for exceptions, that is, f.e. on abnormal BPF program exit such as unknown or XDP_ABORTED return code, or when error occurs during XDP_TX action and the packet could not be forwarded. Both have been split into separate event headers, and can be further extended. Worst case, if they unexpectedly should get into our way in future, they can also removed [1]. Of course, these tracepoints (like any other) can be analyzed by eBPF itself, etc. Example output: # ./perf record -a -e bpf:* sleep 10 # ./perf script sock_example 6197 [005] 283.980322: bpf:bpf_map_create: map type=ARRAY ufd=4 key=4 val=8 max=256 flags=0 sock_example 6197 [005] 283.980721: bpf:bpf_prog_load: prog=a5ea8fa30ea6849c type=SOCKET_FILTER ufd=5 sock_example 6197 [005] 283.988423: bpf:bpf_prog_get_type: prog=a5ea8fa30ea6849c type=SOCKET_FILTER sock_example 6197 [005] 283.988443: bpf:bpf_map_lookup_elem: map type=ARRAY ufd=4 key=[06 00 00 00] val=[00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00] [...] sock_example 6197 [005] 288.990868: bpf:bpf_map_lookup_elem: map type=ARRAY ufd=4 key=[01 00 00 00] val=[14 00 00 00 00 00 00 00] swapper 0 [005] 289.338243: bpf:bpf_prog_put_rcu: prog=a5ea8fa30ea6849c type=SOCKET_FILTER [1] https://lwn.net/Articles/705270/Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

tcp_add_backlog() can use skb_condense() helper to get better gains and less SKB_TRUESIZE() magic. This only happens when socket backlog has to be used. Some attacks involve specially crafted out of order tiny TCP packets, clogging the ofo queue of (many) sockets. Then later, expensive collapse happens, trying to copy all these skbs into single ones. This unfortunately does not work if each skb has no neighbor in TCP sequence order. By using skb_condense() if the skb could not be coalesced to a prior one, we defeat these kind of threats, potentially saving 4K per skb (or more, since this is one page fragment). A typical NAPI driver allocates gro packets with GRO_MAX_HEAD bytes in skb->head, meaning the copy done by skb_condense() is limited to about 200 bytes.

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-updates-2017-24-01 The first seven patches from Or Gerlitz in this series further enhances the mlx5 SRIOV switchdev mode to support offloading IPv6 tunnels using the TC tunnel key set (encap) and unset (decap) actions. Or Gerlitz says: ======================== As part of doing this change, few cleanups are done in the IPv4 code, later we move to use the full tunnel key info provided to the driver as the key for our internal hashing which is used to identify cases where the same tunnel is used for encapsulating multiple flows. As done in the IPv4 case, the control path for offloading IPv6 tunnels uses route/neigh lookups and construction of the IPv6 tunnel headers on the encap path and matching on the outer hears in the decap path. The last patch of the series enlarges the HW FDB size for the switchdev mode, so it has now room to contain offloaded flows as many as min(max number of HW flow counters supported, max HW table size supported). ======================== Next to Or's series you can find several patches handling several topics. From Mohamad, add support for SRIOV VF min rate guarantee by using the TSAR BW share weights mechanism. From Or, Two patches to enable Eth VFs to query their min-inline value for user-space. for that we move a mlx5 low level min inline helper function from mlx5 ethernet driver into the core driver and then use it in mlx5_ib to expose the inline mode to rdma applications through libmlx5. From Kamal Heib, Reduce memory consumption on kdump kernel. From Shaker Daibes, code reuse in CQE compression control logic ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Introduce optional 128-bit action cookie. Like all other cookie schemes in the networking world (eg in protocols like http or existing kernel fib protocol field, etc) the idea is to save user state that when retrieved serves as a correlator. The kernel _should not_ intepret it. The user can store whatever they wish in the 128 bits. Sample exercise(showing variable length use of cookie) .. create an accept action with cookie a1b2c3d4 sudo $TC actions add action ok index 1 cookie a1b2c3d4 .. dump all gact actions.. sudo $TC -s actions ls action gact action order 0: gact action pass random type none pass val 0 index 1 ref 1 bind 0 installed 5 sec used 5 sec Action statistics: Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0) backlog 0b 0p requeues 0 cookie a1b2c3d4 .. bind the accept action to a filter.. sudo $TC filter add dev lo parent ffff: protocol ip prio 1 \ u32 match ip dst 127.0.0.1/32 flowid 1:1 action gact index 1 ... send some traffic.. $ ping 127.0.0.1 -c 3 PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=0.020 ms 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.027 ms 64 bytes from 127.0.0.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=0.038 ms Signed-off-by: David S.

Andrew Lunn says: ==================== External MDIO support for mv88e6xxx The mv88e6390 family of switches has two MDIO busses, one internal to the switch and a second one for external usage. Older generations of switches have a single MDIO bus, which is used both internally and externally. Refactor the existing MDIO driver code to allow for multiple MDIO busses, and implement the second MDIO bus on mv88e6390. This is a rewrite of a patch previously submitted as part of "Batch 3". It has been broken up into 5 smaller patches. A compatible string is now used in the device tree to indicate the external MDIO bus. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
