Jesper Dangaard Brouer says: ==================== qdisc and tx_queue_len cleanups for IFF_NO_QUEUE devices This patchset is a cleanup for IFF_NO_QUEUE devices. It will hopefully help userspace get a more consistent behavior when attaching qdisc to such virtual devices. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

It is a clear misconfiguration to attach a qdisc to a device with tx_queue_len zero, because some qdisc's (namely, pfifo, bfifo, gred, htb, plug and sfb) inherit/copy this value as their queue length. Why should the kernel catch such a misconfiguration? Because prior to introducing the IFF_NO_QUEUE device flag, userspace found a loophole in the qdisc config system that allowed them to achieve the equivalent of IFF_NO_QUEUE, which is to remove the qdisc code path entirely from a device. The loophole on older kernels is setting tx_queue_len=0, *prior* to device qdisc init (the config time is significant, simply setting tx_queue_len=0 doesn't trigger the loophole). This loophole is currently used by Docker[1] to get better performance and scalability out of the veth device. The Docker developers were warned[1] that they needed to adjust the tx_queue_len if ever attaching a qdisc. The OpenShift project didn't remember this warning and attached a qdisc, this were caught and fixed in[2]. [1] https://github.com/docker/libcontainer/pull/193 [2] https://github.com/openshift/origin/pull/11126 Instead of fixing every userspace program that used this loophole, and forgot to reset the tx_queue_len, prior to attaching a qdisc. Let's catch the misconfiguration on the kernel side. Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <brouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The flag IFF_NO_QUEUE marks virtual device drivers that doesn't need a default qdisc attached, given they will be backed by physical device, that already have a qdisc attached for pushback. It is still supported to attach a qdisc to a IFF_NO_QUEUE device, as this can be useful for difference policy reasons (e.g. bandwidth limiting containers). For this to work, the tx_queue_len need to have a sane value, because some qdiscs inherit/copy the tx_queue_len (namely, pfifo, bfifo, gred, htb, plug and sfb). Commit a813104d ("IFF_NO_QUEUE: Fix for drivers not calling ether_setup()") caught situations where some drivers didn't initialize tx_queue_len. The problem with the commit was choosing 1 as the fallback value. A qdisc queue length of 1 causes more harm than good, because it creates hard to debug situations for userspace. It gives userspace a false sense of a working config after attaching a qdisc. As low volume traffic (that doesn't activate the qdisc policy) works, like ping, while traffic that e.g. needs shaping cannot reach the configured policy levels, given the queue length is too small. This patch change the value to DEFAULT_TX_QUEUE_LEN, given other IFF_NO_QUEUE devices (that call ether_setup()) also use this value.

The default TX queue length of Ethernet devices have been a magic constant of 1000, ever since the initial git import. Looking back in historical trees[1][2] the value used to be 100, with the same comment "Ethernet wants good queues". The commit[3] that changed this from 100 to 1000 didn't describe why, but from conversations with Robert Olsson it seems that it was changed when Ethernet devices went from 100Mbit/s to 1Gbit/s, because the link speed increased x10 the queue size were also adjusted. This value later caused much heartache for the bufferbloat community. This patch merely moves the value into a defined constant.

Paolo Abeni says: ==================== udp: do fwd memory scheduling on dequeue After commit 850cbadd ("udp: use it's own memory accounting schema"), the udp code needs to acquire twice the receive queue spinlock on dequeue. This patch series remove the need for the second lock at skb free time, moving the udp memory scheduling inside the dequeue operation; the skb destructor field is not used anymore and an additional sk argument is added to ip_cmsg_recv_offset() to cope with null skb->sk after dequeue. Many thanks to Eric Dumazed for suggesting pretty all much the above. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

A new argument is added to __skb_recv_datagram to provide an explicit skb destructor, invoked under the receive queue lock. The UDP protocol uses such argument to perform memory reclaiming on dequeue, so that the UDP protocol does not set anymore skb->desctructor. Instead explicit memory reclaiming is performed at close() time and when skbs are removed from the receive queue. The in kernel UDP protocol users now need to call a skb_recv_udp() variant instead of skb_recv_datagram() to properly perform memory accounting on dequeue. Overall, this allows acquiring only once the receive queue lock on dequeue. Tested using pktgen with random src port, 64 bytes packet, wire-speed on a 10G link as sender and udp_sink as the receiver, using an l4 tuple rxhash to stress the contention, and one or more udp_sink instances with reuseport. nr sinks vanilla patched 1 440 560 3 2150 2300 6 3650 3800 9 4450 4600 12 6250 6450 v1 -> v2: - do rmem and allocated memory scheduling under the receive lock - do bulk scheduling in first_packet_length() and in udp_destruct_sock() - avoid the typdef for the dequeue callback Suggested-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@stressinduktion.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Add support for the variant of amac hardware present in the Broadcom Northstar2 based SoCs. Northstar2 requires an additional register to be configured with the port speed/duplexity (NICPM). This can be added to the link callback to hide it from the instances that do not use this. Also, clearing of the pending interrupts on init is required due to observed issues on some platforms.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-11-04 This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf only. Don does cleanup and configuration for our X553 devices, related to LED, auto-negotiation, flow control and SFP+ setup and config. Adds the (not secret) sauce for B0 hardware for X553 hardware. Emil provides several fixes, first replaces the driver specific MDIO defines for the more preferred equivalent kernel ones. Provides a fix for auto-negotiaion status, by reading a PHY register twice. Introduces ixgbe_link_operations structure to allow X550EM_a to override the methods for MDIO access while X550EM_x provides methods to use I2C combined access. Mark fixes an issue where the driver was crashing when msix_entires were not there because they were freed by a previous suspend or remove. Sowmini Varadhan fixes an issue where an incorrect check for IPPROTO_UDP in ixgbe_atr(). Then makes sure that the network and transport headers in the paged data are available in the headlen bytes to calculate the l4_proto. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

For some Tx paths (e.g., tpacket_snd()), ixgbe_atr may be passed down an sk_buff that has the network and transport header in the paged data, so it needs to make sure these headers are available in the headlen bytes to calculate the l4_proto. This patch expect that network and transport headers are already available in the non-paged header dat. The assumption is that the caller has set this up if l4_proto based Tx steering is desired.

Introduce ixgbe_link_operations struct with the following changes: read_i2c_combined => read_link read_i2c_combined_unlocked => read_link_unlocked write_i2c_combined => write_link write_i2c_combined_unlocked => write_link_unlocked This will allow X550EM_a to override these methods for MDIO access while X550EM_x provides methods to use I2C combined access. This also adds a new structure, ixgbe_link_info, to hold information about the link. Initially this is just method pointers and a bus address. The functions involved in combined I2C accesses were moved from ixgbe_phy.c to ixgbe_x550.c. The underlying functions that carry out the combined I2C accesses were left in ixgbe_phy.c because they share some functions with other I2C methods. v2 - set hw->link.ops in probe. v3 - check ii->link_ops before setting it since we don't have it for all devices.
