The bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() use the bond lock to protect the bond slave list, it is no effect, so I could use RTNL or RCU to replace it, considering the performance impact, the RCU is more better here, so the bond lock replace with the RCU. The bond_select_active_slave() need RTNL and curr_slave_lock together, but there is no RTNL lock here, so add a rtnl_rtylock. Suggested-by:

The bond_alb_monitor use bond lock to protect the bond slave list, it is no effect here, we need to use RTNL or RCU to replace bond lock, the bond_alb_monitor will called 10 times one second, RTNL may loss performance here, so I replace bond lock with RCU to protect the bond slave list, also the RTNL is preserved, the logic of the monitor did not changed.

The bond_mii_monitor() still use bond lock to protect bond slave list, it is no effect, I have 2 way to fix the problem, move the RTNL to the top of the function, or add RCU to protect the bond slave list, according to the Jay Vosburgh's opinion, 10 times one second is a truely big performance loss if use RTNL to protect the whole monitor, so I would take the advice and use RCU to protect the bond slave list. The bond_has_slave() will not protect by anything, there will no things happen if the slave list is be changed, unless the bond was free, but it will not happened before the monitor, the bond will closed before be freed. The peers notify for the bond will calling curr_active_slave, so derefence the slave to make sure we will accessing the same slave if the curr_active_slave changed, as the rcu dereference need in read-side critical sector and bond_change_active_slave() will call it with no RCU hold, so add peer notify in rcu_read_lock which will be nested in monitor.

The bond slave list was no longer protected by bond lock and only protected by RTNL or RCU, so anywhere that use bond lock to protect slave list is meaningless. remove the release and acquire bond lock for bond_select_active_slave(). The curr_active_slave could only be changed in 3 place: 1. enslave slave. 2. release slave. 3. change_active_slave. all above place were holding bond lock, RTNL and curr_slave_lock together, it is tedious and meaningless, obviously bond lock is no need here, but RTNL or curr_slave_lock is needed, so if you want to access active slave, you have to choose one lock, RTNL or curr_slave_lock, if RTNL is exist, no need to add curr_slave_lock, otherwise curr_slave_lock is better, because of the performance. there are several place calling bond_select_active_slave() and bond_change_active_slave(), the next step I will clean these place and remove the no effect lock. there are some document changed together when update the function.

After commit 95dc1929 ("pkt_sched: give visibility to mq slave qdiscs") we call disc_list_add() while the device qdisc might be the noop_qdisc one. This shows up as duplicates in "tc qdisc show", as all inactive devices point to noop_qdisc. Fix this by setting dev->qdisc to the new qdisc before calling ops->change() in attach_default_qdiscs() Add a WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch any future similar problem. Signed-off-by:

Scott Feldman says: ==================== bonding: add more netlink attributes v2: Addressed v1 review comments. In particular, Jay's concern about current sysfs ordering limitations carrying over to iproute. Netlink attributes are processed in a priority order in bond_netlink.c:bond_changelink(). Lower priority attributes can't undo higher priority attributes when attempting to set both with iproute command. For example, this command will fail: ip link add bond1 type bond mode active-backup miimon 10 arp_interval 10 Because we're trying to create a new bond to use incompatible miimon and ARP interval attributes. However, if attributes are applied one-at-a-time, previously applied attributes can be overridden: ip link add bond1 type bond mode active-backup miimon 10 ip link set dev bond1 type bond arp_interval 10 These two commands succeed. The bond is first created to use miimon. Next, the bond is converted to use ARP interval, which undoes miimon. v1: Following Jiri Pirko's lead, add more bonding netlink attributes. Sending matching iproute2 patch separately. sysfs access to attributes is retained. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

We need a dedicated channel on Siena to ensure we can match up the separate RX and timestamp events for each PTP packet. We won't do this for EF10 as timestamps are delivered inline. Pass a channel index of 0 to MC_CMD_PTP_OP_ENABLE when there is no dedicated channel. Signed-off-by:Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

efx_flush_all() is a really misleading name - it has nothing to do with e.g. flushing DMA queues. Since it's called immediately after efx_stop_port() and is highly dependent on what that does, combine the two functions. Update comments to explain what this is doing a little better. Also update an related and erroneous comment in efx_start_port(). Signed-off-by: -

Split each of efx_mcdi_rpc, efx_mcdi_rpc_finish, and efx_mcdi_rpc_async into a normal and a _quiet version; made the former log MCDI errors with netif_err (and include the raw MCDI error code), and the latter never log them at all. Changed various callers; any where some errors are expected (but others are not) call the _quiet version and then if necessary log the MCDI error themselves. Said logging is done by new efx_mcdi_display_error. Callers of efx_mcdi_rpc*_quiet functions which may want to log the error need to ensure that their outbuf is big enough to hold an MCDI error; to this end, they now use MCDI_DECLARE_BUF_OUT_OR_ERR, which always allocates at least 8 bytes.

We don't directly control RX ingress on Siena or any later controllers, and so we cannot prevent packets from entering the RX datapath while the RX queues are not set up. This results in the hardware incrementing RX_NODESC_DROP_CNT, but it's not an error and we should not include it in error stats. When bringing an interface up or down, pull (or wait for) stats and count the number of packets that were dropped while the interface was down. Subtract this from the reported RX dropped count.

The addition of RX event merging support means we don't reliably detect dropped RX events now. Currently we will only detect them if the previous event for the RX queue had the CONT bit set. Only accept RX completion events as merged if the GET_CAPABILITIES_OUT_RX_BATCHING bit is set in datapath_caps (which it won't be for the low-latency datapath) and the CONT bit is not set on the event.

To run BISTs the MC goes down in to a special mode where it will only respond to MCDI from the testing PF, and TX, RX and event queues are torn down. Other PFs get a message as it goes down to tell them it's going down. When the other PFs get this message, they check the soft status register to tell when the MC has rebooted after BIST mode and they can start recovery.

Commit c45f812f ('8390 : Replace ei_debug with msg_enable/NETIF_MSG_* feature') ended up moving the printout of version[] from something that will be compiled out due to defines, to something that is now evaluated at runtime. That means that what always used to be an access to an __initdata string from non-__init code started showing up as a section mismatch when it didn't before. All other 8390 versions skip __initdata on the version string, and starting to annotate the whole chain of callers with __init seems like more churn than it's worth on this driver, so remove it from etherh.c as well.

This patch modifies the GRO stack to avoid the use of "network_header" and associated macros like ip_hdr() and ipv6_hdr() in order to allow an arbitary number of IP hdrs (v4 or v6) to be used in the encapsulation chain. This lays the foundation for various IP tunneling support (IP-in-IP, GRE, VXLAN, SIT,...) to be added later. With this patch, the GRO stack traversing now is mostly based on skb_gro_offset rather than special hdr offsets saved in skb (e.g., skb->network_header). As a result all but the top layer (i.e., the the transport layer) must have hdrs of the same length in order for a pkt to be considered for aggregation. Therefore when adding a new encap layer (e.g., for tunneling), one must check and skip flows (e.g., by setting NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->same_flow to 0) that have a different hdr length. Note that unlike the network header, the transport header can and will continue to be set by the GRO code since there will be at most one "transport layer" in the encap chain. Signed-off-by:

Vlad Yasevich says: ==================== Add packet capture support on macvtap device Change from RFC: - moved to the rx_handler approach. This series adds support for packet capturing on macvtap device. The initial approach was to simply export the capturing code as a function from the core network. While simple, it was not a very architecturally clean approach. The new appraoch is to provide macvtap with its rx_handler which can is attached to the macvtap device itself. Macvlan will simply requeue the packet with an updated skb->dev. BTW, macvlan layer already does this for macvlan devices. So, now macvtap and macvlan have almost the same exact input path. I've toyed with short-circuting the input path for macvtap by returning RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, but that just made the code more complicated and didn't provide any kind of measurable gain (at least according to netperf and perf runs on the host). To see if there was a performance regression, I ran 1, 2 and 4 netperf STREAM and MAERTS tests agains the VM from both remote host and another guest on the same system. The command ran was netperf -H $host -t $test -l 20 -i 10 -I 95 -c -C The numbers I was getting with the new code were consistently very slightly (1-2%) better then the old code. I don't consider this an improvement, but it's not a regression! :) Running 'perf record' on the host didn't show any new hot spots and cpu utilization stayed about the same. This was better then I expected from simply looking at the code. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Macvtap device currently doesn not allow a user to capture traffic on due to the fact that it steals the packets from the network stack before the skb->dev is set correctly on the receive side, and that use uses macvlan transmit path directly on the send side. As a result, we never get a change to give traffic to the taps while the correct device is set in the skb. This patch makes macvtap device behave almost exaclty like macvlan. On the send side, we switch to using dev_queue_xmit(). On the receive side, to deliver packets to macvtap, we now use netif_rx and dev_forward_skb just like macvlan. The only differnce now is that macvtap has its own rx_handler which is attached to the macvtap netdev. It is here that we now steal the packet and provide it to the socket. As a result, we can now capture traffic on the macvtap device: tcpdump -i macvtap0 It also gives us the abilit to add tc actions to the macvtap device and actually utilize different bandwidth management queues on output.

Daniel Borkmann authored
There are a couple of valid use cases for a minimal low-level bpf asm like tool, for example, using/linking to libpcap is not an option, the required BPF filters use Linux extensions that are not supported by libpcap's compiler, a filter might be more complex and not cleanly implementable with libpcap's compiler, particular filter codes should be optimized differently than libpcap's internal BPF compiler does, or for security audits of emitted BPF JIT code for prepared set of BPF instructions resp. BPF JIT compiler development in general. Then, in such cases writing such a filter in low-level syntax can be an good alternative, for example, xt_bpf and cls_bpf users might have requirements that could result in more complex filter code, or one that cannot be expressed with libpcap (e.g. different return codes in cls_bpf for flowids on various BPF code paths). Moreover, BPF JIT implementors may wish to manually write test cases in order to verify the resulting JIT image, and thus need low-level access to BPF code generation as well. Therefore, complete the available toolchain for BPF with this small bpf_asm helper tool for the tools/net/ directory. These 3 complementary minimal helper tools round up and facilitate BPF development. Signed-off-by:
