David L Stevens says: ==================== sunvnet: add jumbo frames support This patch set updates the sunvnet driver to version 1.6 of the VIO protocol to support per-port exchange of MTU information and allow non-standard MTU sizes, including jumbo frames. Using large MTUs shows a nearly 5X throughput improvement Linux-Solaris and > 10X throughput improvement Linux-Linux. Changes from v8: -add a short timeout to free pending skbs if a new transmit doesn't do it first per Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Changes from v7: -handle skb allocation failures in vnet_skb_shape() per Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Changes from v6: -made kernel transmit path zero-copy to remove memory n^2 scaling issue raised by Raghuram Kothakota <Raghuram.Kothakota@oracle.com> Changes from v5: - fixed comment per Sowmini Varadhan <sowmini.varadhan@oracle.com> Changes from v4: - changed VNET_MAXPACKET per David Laight <David.Laight@ACULAB.COM> - added cookies to support non-contiguous buffers of max size Changes from v3: - added version functions per Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> - moved rmtu to vnet_port per Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> - explicitly set options bits and capability flags to 0 per Raghuram Kothakota <Raghuram.Kothakota@oracle.com> Changes from v2: - make checkpatch clean Changes from v1: - fix brace formatting per Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch sends ICMP and ICMPv6 messages for Path MTU Discovery when a remote port MTU is smaller than the device MTU. This allows mixing newer VIO protocol devices that support MTU negotiation with older devices that do not on the same vswitch. It also allows Linux-Linux LDOMs to use 64K-1 data packets even though Solaris vswitch is limited to <16K MTU. Signed-off-by: David L Stevens <david.stevens@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch removes pre-allocated transmit buffers and instead directly maps pending packets on demand. This saves O(n^2) maximum-sized transmit buffers, for n hosts on a vswitch, as well as a copy to those buffers. Single-stream TCP throughput linux-solaris dropped ~5% for 1500-byte MTU, but linux-linux at 1500-bytes increased ~20%.

Antoine Tenart says: ==================== ARM: Berlin: Ethernet support This series introduce support for the Ethernet controller on Berlin SoCs, using the existing pxa168 Ethernet driver. In order to do this, DT support is added to the driver alongside some other modifications and fixes. This has been tested on a Berlin BG2Q DMP board. Changes since v5: - fixed the build when building the driver as a module Changes since v4: - removed the phy-addr property and added a phy subnode - added COMPILE_TEST for the pxa168_eth driver Changes since v3: - moved the addition of pxa168_eth_get_mac_address() to the patch using it first Changes since v2: - reworked how the MAC address is configured - made the clock anonymous Changes since v1: - removed custom Berlin Ethernet driver - used the pxa168 Ethernet driver instead - made modifications to the pxa168 driver (DT support, fixes) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch rework the way the MAC address is retrieved. The MAC address can now, in addition to being random, be set in the device tree or retrieved from the Ethernet controller MAC address registers. The probing function will try to get a MAC address in the following order: - From the device tree. - From the Ethernet controller MAC address registers. - Generate a random one. This patch also adds a function to read the MAC address from the Ethernet Controller registers.

Jack Morgenstein authored
ConnectX2 HCAs have max_mtu=4k and max_vl=8 vls. However, if you specify a 4K mtu, the max_vl supported for 4K is 4 vls. The driver at startup attempts to set a 4K mtu using the max_vl value obtained from QUERY_PORT. Since the max_vl value is 8 vls (which is supported up to 2K mtu size), the first attempt to set the mtl/vl port value will fail, generating the following error message in the log: mlx4_core 0000:06:00.0: command 0xc failed: fw status = 0x40 The driver then tries again, using mtu=4k, vls=4, and this succeeds. Since we do not want to have this error message always displayed at driver start when there are ConnectX2 HCAs on the host, we deprecate the error message for this specific command/input_modifier/opcode_modifier/fw-status to be debug.

In the new flow, we separate the pci initialization and teardown from the initialization and teardown of the other resources. __mlx4_init_one handles the pci resources initialization. It then calls mlx4_load_one to initialize the remainder of the resources. When removing a device, mlx4_remove_one is invoked. However, now mlx4_remove_one calls mlx4_unload_one to free all the resources except the pci resources. When mlx4_unload_one returns, mlx4_remove_one then frees the pci resources. The above separation will allow us to implement 'reset flow' in the future. It will also enable more EQs for VFs and is a pre-step to the modern API to enable/disable SRIOV. Also added nvfs; an integer array of size MLX4_MAX_PORTS + 1; to the mlx4_dev struct. This new field is used to avoid parsing the num_vfs module parameter each time the mlx4_restart_one is called.

When unloading the host driver while there are VFs active on VMs, the PF driver disabled sriov anyway, causing kernel crashes. We now leave SRIOV enabled, to avoid that. When the driver is reloaded, __mlx4_init_one is invoked on the PF. It now checks to see if SRIOV is already enabled on the PF -- and if so does not enable sriov again.

As the code stands today, bonding stats are based simply on the stats from the member interfaces. If a member was to be removed from a bond, the stats would instantly drop. This would be confusing to an admin would would suddonly see interface stats drop while traffic is still flowing. In addition to preventing the stats drops mentioned above, new members will now be added to the bond and only traffic received after the member was added to the bond will be counted as part of bonding stats. Bonding counters will also be updated when any slaves are dropped to make sure the reported stats are reliable. v2: Changes suggested by Nik to properly allocate/free stats memory. v3: Properly destroy workqueue and fix netlink configuration path. v4: Moved cached stats into bonding and slave structs as there does not seem to be a complexity/performance benefit to using alloc'd memory vs in-struct memory.

This removes the use of qstats->qlen variable from the classifiers and makes it an explicit argument to gnet_stats_copy_queue(). The qlen represents the qdisc queue length and is packed into the qstats at the last moment before passnig to user space. By handling it explicitely we avoid, in the percpu stats case, having to figure out which per_cpu variable to put it in. It would probably be best to remove it from qstats completely but qstats is a user space ABI and can't be broken. A future patch could make an internal only qstats structure that would avoid having to allocate an additional u32 variable on the Qdisc struct. This would make the qstats struct 128bits instead of 128+32. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In order to run qdisc's without locking statistics and estimators need to be handled correctly. To resolve bstats make the statistics per cpu. And because this is only needed for qdiscs that are running without locks which is not the case for most qdiscs in the near future only create percpu stats when qdiscs set the TCQ_F_CPUSTATS flag. Next because estimators use the bstats to calculate packets per second and bytes per second the estimator code paths are updated to use the per cpu statistics.

This patch adds a new mode of operation to macvlan, called "source". It allows one to set a list of allowed mac address, which is used to match against source mac address from received frames on underlying interface. This enables creating mac based VLAN associations, instead of standard port or tag based. The feature is useful to deploy 802.1x mac based behavior, where drivers of underlying interfaces doesn't allows that. Configuration is done through the netlink interface using e.g.: ip link add link eth0 name macvlan0 type macvlan mode source ip link add link eth0 name macvlan1 type macvlan mode source ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:11:11:11:11:11 ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:22:22:22:22:22 ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33 ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33 ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:44:44:44:44:44 This allows clients with MAC addresses 00:11:11:11:11:11, 00:22:22:22:22:22 to be part of only VLAN associated with macvlan0 interface. Clients with MAC addresses 00:44:44:44:44:44 with only VLAN associated with macvlan1 interface. And client with MAC address 00:33:33:33:33:33 to be associated with both VLANs.
