Currently the sock queue's spin locks get their lockdep classes by the default init_spin_lock() initializer: all socket families get - usually, see below - a single class for rx, another specific class for tx, etc. This can lead to false positive lockdep splat, as reported by Andrey. Moreover there are two separate initialization points for the sock queues, one in sk_clone_lock() and one in sock_init_data(), so that e.g. the rx queue lock can get one of two possible, different classes, depending on the socket being cloned or not. This change tries to address the above, setting explicitly a per address family lockdep class for each queue's spinlock. Also, move the duplicated initialization code to a single location. v1 -> v2: - renamed the init helper rfc -> v1: - no changes, tested with several different workload Suggested-by: Cong Wang <xiyou.wangcong@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Thomas Petazzoni says: ==================== net: mvpp2: add initial support for PPv2.2 The goal of this patch series is to add basic support for PPv2.2 in the existing mvpp2 driver. mvpp2 currently supported the PPv2.1 version of the IP, used in the 32 bits Marvell Armada 375 SoC. PPv2.2 is an evolution of this IP block, used in the 64 bits Marvell Armada 7K/8K SoCs. In order to ease the review, the introduction of PPv2.2 support has been made into multiple small commits, with the final commit adding the compatible string that makes the PPv2.2 support actually usable. The series remain fully bisectable. People interested in testing the code will find the full series (plus a few Device Tree patches) at: https://github.com/MISL-EBU-System-SW/mainline-public/tree/4.11/mvpp2.2-support-v3 I'd like to thank Stefan Chulski and Marcin Wojtas, who helped me a lot in the development of this patch series, by reviewing the patches, and giving lots of useful hints to debug the driver on PPv2.2. Thanks as well to Russell King for reviewing previous iterations of this series, and providing suggestions and fixes. Changes between v2 and v3: - Rebased on v4.11-rc1. - Add patch "net: mvpp2: fix DMA address calculation in mvpp2_txq_inc_put()", to properly take into account the "packet offset" field of the TX descriptors. Without this, we were getting DMA_API_DEBUG warnings that we are unmapping DMA mappings with a non-mapped DMA address. - In patch "net: mvpp2: add and use accessors for TX/RX descriptors", add a function named mvpp2_txdesc_offset_get(), which is needed for the DMA address calculation fix. - In patch "net: mvpp2: add and use accessors for TX/RX descriptors", fix the calculation of tx_desc physical address and packet offset in mvpp2_tx_frag_process(). The offset was assigned into the buffer physical address, and the physical address to the packet offset, which meant the fragment process was completely broken. - In patch "net: mvpp2: adjust the allocation/free of BM pools for PPv2.2" fix how MVPP22_BM_ADDR_HIGH_VIRT_RLS_MASK is used. This mask is already shifted. So the value should be shifted before being masked and not the opposite. - Add a new patch "net: mvpp2: set dma mask and coherent dma mask on PPv2.2", to set the DMA mask and DMA coherent mask. By setting the DMA mask to 40 bits we avoid using bounce buffers when network packets are above the 4 GB limit. The coherent mask remains set to 32 bits, because the BM pools must all have the same high 32 bits in their addresses. - Use "dma" instead of "phys" where appropriate, as suggested by Russell King. - Use the "cookie" field of the RX descriptor to store the physical address instead of the virtual address, and then use phys_to_virt() to get the virtual address. This allows to work around the limit that the "cookie" field only has 40 bits, which is not sufficient to store a virtual address on 64 bits platforms. This was suggested by Russell King. As part of this change, also got rid of all the compile time conditionals on CONFIG_ARCH_DMA_ADDR_T_64BIT, to get better compile-time coverage. - In patch "net: mvpp2: handle misc PPv2.1/PPv2.2 differences": * Instead of calling mvpp21_port_power_up(port) only on PPv2.1, remove this function, and call its relevant parts directly from ->probe(). Only mvpp2_port_fc_adv_enable() is PPv2.1 specific. Reported by Russell King. * Add a mvpp22_port_mii_set() function that properly initializes SGMII support on PPv2.2. Code provided by Russell King. - In patch "net: mvpp2: handle register mapping and access for PPv2.2": * Adjust the code to match the change of the DT binding in terms of mapping the second register area on PPv2.2. * Rework the register accessors to remove the get_cpu()/put_cpu(), and instead use separate accessors for global registers vs. per-CPU registers. - Add a few new patches removing dead/unused/useless code: net: mvpp2: remove support for buffer header net: mvpp2: remove unused register definition MVPP2_TXQ_THRESH_REG net: mvpp2: remove mvpp2_txq_pend_desc_num_get() function - Fix a number of checkpatch warnings. Changes between v1 and v2: - Made a separate series from the set of patches doing preparation changes/fixes to the mvpp2 driver. - Rebased on top of v4.10-rc1. - Update Kconfig text of the mvpp2 driver to mention the support for Armada 7K and 8K (PPv2.2). ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

On PPv2.2, the streaming mappings can be anywhere in the first 40 bits of the physical address space. However, for the coherent mappings, we still need them to be in the first 32 bits of the address space, because all BM pools share a single register to store the high 32 bits of the BM pool address, which means all BM pools must be allocated in the same 4GB memory area.

In PPv2.1, we have a maximum of 8 RXQs per port, with a default of 4 RXQs per port, and we were assigning RXQs 0->3 to the first port, 4->7 to the second port, 8->11 to the third port, etc. In PPv2.2, we have a maximum of 32 RXQs per port, and we must allocate RXQs from the range of 32 RXQs available for each port. So port 0 must use RXQs in the range 0->31, port 1 in the range 32->63, etc. This commit adapts the mvpp2 to this difference between PPv2.1 and PPv2.2: - The constant definition MVPP2_MAX_RXQ is replaced by a new field 'max_port_rxqs' in 'struct mvpp2', which stores the maximum number of RXQs per port. This field is initialized during ->probe() depending on the IP version. - MVPP2_RXQ_TOTAL_NUM is removed, and instead we calculate the total number of RXQs by multiplying the number of ports by the maximum of RXQs per port. This was anyway used in only one place. - In mvpp2_port_probe(), the calculation of port->first_rxq is adjusted to cope with the different allocation strategy between PPv2.1 and PPv2.2. Due to this change, the 'next_first_rxq' argument of this function is no longer needed and is removed. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This commit adjusts the mvpp2 driver register mapping and access logic to support PPv2.2, to handle a number of differences. Due to how the registers are laid out in memory, the Device Tree binding for the "reg" property is different: - On PPv2.1, we had a first area for the packet processor registers (common to all ports), and then one area per port. - On PPv2.2, we have a first area for the packet processor registers (common to all ports), and a second area for numerous other registers, including a large number of per-port registers In addition, on PPv2.2, the area for the common registers is split into so-called "address spaces" of 64 KB each. They allow to access per-CPU registers, where each CPU has its own copy of some registers. A few other registers, which have a single copy, also need to be accessed from those per-CPU windows if they are related to a per-CPU register. For example: - Writing to MVPP2_TXQ_NUM_REG selects a TX queue. This register is a per-CPU register, it must be accessed from the current CPU register window. - Then a write to MVPP2_TXQ_PENDING_REG, MVPP2_TXQ_DESC_ADDR_REG (and a few others) will affect the TX queue that was selected by the write to MVPP2_TXQ_NUM_REG. It must be accessed from the same CPU window as the write to the TXQ_NUM_REG. Therefore, the ->base member of 'struct mvpp2' is replaced with a ->cpu_base[] array, each entry pointing to a mapping of the per-CPU area. Since PPv2.1 doesn't have this concept of per-CPU windows, all entries in ->cpu_base[] point to the same io-remapped area. The existing mvpp2_read() and mvpp2_write() accessors use cpu_base[0], they are used for registers for which the CPU window doesn't matter. mvpp2_percpu_read() and mvpp2_percpu_write() are new accessors added to access the registers for which the CPU window does matter, which is why they take a "cpu" as argument. The driver is then changed to use mvpp2_percpu_read() and mvpp2_percpu_write() where it matters. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This commit adjusts the allocation and freeing of BM pools to support PPv2.2. This involves: - Checking that the number of buffer pointers is a multiple of 16, as required by the hardware. - Adjusting the size of the DMA coherent area allocated for buffer pointers. Indeed, PPv2.2 needs space for 2 pointers of 64-bits per buffer, as opposed to 2 pointers of 32-bits per buffer in PPv2.1. The size in bytes is now stored in a new field of the mvpp2_bm_pool structure. - On PPv2.2, getting the DMA address and cookie (used for the physical address) of each buffer requires reading the MVPP22_BM_ADDR_HIGH_ALLOC to get the high order bits of those addresses. A new utility function mvpp2_bm_bufs_get_addrs() is introduced to handle this. - On PPv2.2, releasing a buffer requires writing the high order 32 bits of the DMA address and cookie to MVPP22_BM_PHY_VIRT_HIGH_RLS_REG.

Since the format of the HW descriptors is different between PPv2.1 and PPv2.2, this commit introduces an intermediate union, with for now only the PPv2.1 descriptors. The bulk of the driver code only manipulates opaque mvpp2_tx_desc and mvpp2_rx_desc pointers, and the descriptors can only be accessed and modified through the accessor functions.

The PPv2.2 IP has a different TX and RX descriptor layout compared to PPv2.1. In order to prepare for the introduction of PPv2.2 support in mvpp2, this commit adds accessors for the different fields of the TX and RX descriptors, and changes the code to use them. For now, the mvpp2_port argument passed to the accessors is not used, but it will be used in follow-up to update the descriptor according to the version of the IP being used. Apart from the mechanical changes to use the newly introduced accessors, a few other changes, needed to use the accessors, are made: - The mvpp2_txq_inc_put() function now takes a mvpp2_port as first argument, as it is needed to use the accessors. - Similarly, the mvpp2_bm_cookie_build() gains a mvpp2_port first argument, for the same reason. - In mvpp2_rx_error(), instead of accessing the RX descriptor in each case of the switch, we introduce a local variable to store the packet size. - In mvpp2_tx_frag_process() and mvpp2_tx() instead of accessing the packet size from the TX descriptor, we use the actual value available in the function, which is used to set the TX descriptor packet size a few lines before.

The RX descriptors of the PPv2 hardware allow to store several information, amongst which: - the DMA address of the buffer in which the data has been received - a "cookie" field, left to the use of the driver, and not used by the hardware In the current implementation, the "cookie" field is used to store the virtual address of the buffer, so that in the receive completion path, we can easily get the virtual address of the buffer that corresponds to a completed RX descriptors. On PPv2.1, used on 32-bit platforms, those two fields are 32-bit wide, which is enough to store a DMA address in the first field, and a virtual address in the second field. On PPv2.2, used on 64-bit platforms, these two fields have been extended to 40 bits. While 40 bits is enough to store a DMA address (as long as the DMA mask is 40 bits or lower), it is not enough to store a virtual address. Therefore, the "cookie" field can no longer be used to store the virtual address of the buffer. However, as Russell King pointed out, the RX buffers are always allocated in the kernel linear mapping, and therefore using phys_to_virt() on the physical address of the RX buffer is possible and correct. Therefore, this commit changes the driver to use the "cookie" field to store the physical address instead of the virtual address. phys_to_virt() is used in the receive completion path to retrieve the virtual address from the physical address. It is obviously important to realize that the DMA address and physical address are two different things, which is why we store both in the RX descriptors. While those addresses may be identical in some situations, it remains two distinct concepts, and both addresses should be handled separately.

The mvpp2_txq_pend_desc_num_get() function only selects a TX queue, and reads the number of pending descriptors. It is used in only one place, in mvpp2_txq_clean(), where the TX queue has already been selected by a write to MVPP2_TXQ_NUM_REG. Therefore, this function is useless, and the caller can simply read the value of the MVPP2_TXQ_PENDING_REG register instead.

The "buffer header" functionality is a functionality used by the hardware to split an incoming packets over multiple BM buffers if they are not large enough. However, the mvpp2 driver guarantees that a pool of BM buffers has buffers with a size large enough to store MTU-sized packets. Therefore, this functionality is completely unused, and the code can be removed, and we should never get a descriptor with bit MVPP2_RXD_BUF_HDR set.

We should keep one way to build skbs, regardless of GRO being on or off.
