Commit d9fbc7f6 "net: tcp: prefer listeners bound to an address" removes port-only listener lookups. This caused segfaults in DCCP lookups because DCCP did not initialize the (addr,port) hashtable. This patch adds said initialization. The only non-trivial issue here is the size of the new hashtable. It seemed reasonable to make it match the size of the port-only hashtable (= INET_LHTABLE_SIZE) that was used previously. Other parameters to inet_hashinfo2_init() match those used in TCP. Tested: syzcaller issues fixed; the second patch in the patchset tests that DCCP lookups work correctly.

When Protocol Field Compression (PFC) is enabled, the "Protocol" field in PPP packet will be received without leading 0x00. See section 6.5 in RFC 1661 for details. So let's decompress protocol field if needed, the same way it's done in drivers/net/ppp/pptp.c. In case when "nopcomp" pppd option is not enabled, PFC (pcomp) can be negotiated during LCP handshake, and L2TP driver in kernel will receive PPP packets with compressed Protocol field, which in turn leads to next error: Protocol Rejected (unsupported protocol 0x2145) because instead of Protocol=0x0021 in PPP packet there will be Protocol=0x21. This patch unwraps it back to 0x0021, which fixes the issue. Sending the compressed Protocol field will be implemented in subsequent patch, this one is self-sufficient.

This series consists of the following: - mlx5 devcom, driver infrastructure that facilitates operations that involve both core devices (physical functions) of the same card, to synchronize and communicate between two driver instances of the same card. - Infrastructure for TC rule duplication. - Changes to LAG logic to enable its use when SR-IOV is enabled - PFs in switchdev mode is the only mode currently supported. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Paolo Abeni says: ==================== net: mitigate retpoline overhead The spectre v2 counter-measures, aka retpolines, are a source of measurable overhead[1]. We can partially address that when the function pointer refers to a builtin symbol resorting to a list of tests vs well-known builtin function and direct calls. Experimental results show that replacing a single indirect call via retpoline with several branches and a direct call gives performance gains even when multiple branches are added - 5 or more, as reported in [2]. This may lead to some uglification around the indirect calls. In netconf 2018 Eric Dumazet described a technique to hide the most relevant part of the needed boilerplate with some macro help. This series is a [re-]implementation of such idea, exposing the introduced helpers in a new header file. They are later leveraged to avoid the indirect call overhead in the GRO path, when possible. Overall this gives > 10% performance improvement for UDP GRO benchmark and smaller but measurable for TCP syn flood. The added infra can be used in follow-up patches to cope with retpoline overhead in other points of the networking stack (e.g. at the qdisc layer) and possibly even in other subsystems. v2 -> v3: - fix build error with CONFIG_IPV6=m v1 -> v2: - list explicitly the builtin function names in INDIRECT_CALL_*(), as suggested by Ed Cree - expand the recipients list rfc -> v1: - use branch prediction hints, as suggested by Eric [1] http://vger.kernel.org/netconf2018_files/PaoloAbeni_netconf2018.pdf [2] https://linuxplumbersconf.org/event/2/contributions/99/attachments/98/117/lpc18_paper_af_xdp_perf-v2.pdf ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This avoids an indirect call in the receive path for TCP and UDP packets. TCP takes precedence on UDP, so that we have a single additional conditional in the common case. When IPV6 is build as module, all gro symbols except UDPv6 are builtin, while the latter belong to the ipv6 module, so we need some special care. v1 -> v2: - adapted to INDIRECT_CALL_ changes v2 -> v3: - fix build issue with CONFIG_IPV6=m Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This header define a bunch of helpers that allow avoiding the retpoline overhead when calling builtin functions via function pointers. It boils down to explicitly comparing the function pointers to known builtin functions and eventually invoke directly the latter.

Currently the driver issues 2 mmio reads to figure out the number of transmitted packets and clean them. We can get rid of the expensive reads since BIT 31 of the Tx descriptor can be used for that. We can also remove the budget counting of Tx completions since all of the descriptors are not deliberately processed. Performance numbers using pktgen are: size pre-patch(pps) post-patch(pps) 64 362483 427916 128 358315 411686 256 352725 389683 512 215675 216464 1024 113812 114442 Signed-off-by: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Running pktgen with packets sizes > 512b ends up in the interface Txq getting stuck. "netsec 522d0000.ethernet eth0: netsec_netdev_start_xmit: TxQFull!" appears on dmesg but the interface never recovers. It requires an ifconfig down/up to make the interface usable again. The reason that triggers this, is a race condition between .ndo_start_xmit and the napi completion. The available budget is calculated first and indicates the queue is full. Due to a costly netif_err() the queue is not stopped in time while the napi completion runs, clears the irq and frees up descriptors, thus the queue never wakes up again. Fix this by moving the print after stopping the queue, make the print ratelimited, add barriers and check for cleaned descriptors..

We would like to add a "catch all" listener on addr_any, to match incoming connections not served by any of the listeners bound to a specific address. However, port-only lookups can match addr_any sockets when sockets listening on specific addresses are present if so_reuseport flag is set. This patchset eliminates lookups into port-only hashtable, as lookups by (addr,port) tuple are easily available.

David Ahern says: ==================== neighbor: More gc_list changes More gc_list changes and cleanups. The first 2 patches are bug fixes from the first gc_list change. Specifically, fix the locking order to be consistent - table lock followed by neighbor lock, and then entries in the FAILED state should always be candidates for forced_gc without waiting for any time span (return to the eviction logic prior to the separate gc_list). Patch 3 removes 2 now unnecessary arguments to neigh_del. Patch 4 moves a helper from a header file to core code in preparation for Patch 5 which removes NTF_EXT_LEARNED entries from the gc_list.
