This patch takes advantage of several assumptions we can make about the headers of the frame in order to reduce overall processing overhead for computing the outer header checksum. First we can assume the entire header is in the region pointed to by skb->head as this is what csum_start is based on. Second, as a result of our first assumption, we can just call csum_partial instead of making a call to skb_checksum which would end up having to configure things so that we could walk through the frags list.

Jiri Benc says: ==================== iptunnel: scrub packet in iptunnel_pull_header As every IP tunnel has to scrub skb on decapsulation, iptunnel_pull_header tried to do that and open coded part of skb_scrub_packet. Various tunneling protocols (VXLAN, Geneve) then called full skb_scrub_packet on their own, duplicating part of the scrubbing already done. Consolidate the code, calling skb_scrub_packet from iptunnel_pull_header. This will allow additional cleanups in VXLAN code, as the packet is scrubbed early during rx processing after this patchset and VXLAN can start filling out skb fields earlier. The full picture of vxlan cleanup patches can be seen at: https://github.com/jbenc/linux-vxlan/commits/master ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Florian Westphal says: ==================== netlink: remove mmapped netlink support As discussed during netconf 2016 in Seville, this series removes CONFIG_NETLINK_MMAP. Close to three years after it was merged it has retained several problems that do not appear to be fixable. No official netfilter libmnl release contains support for mmap backed netlink sockets. No openvswitch release makes use of it either. To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY). So if there are odd programs out there that attempt to use MMAP netlink they should continue to work as they already need a socket based code path to work properly. The actual revert (first patch) has a list of problems. The followup patches remove a couple of helpers that are no longer needed after the revert. I did a few tests with mmap vs. socket based interface on a 4.4 based kernel on an i7-4790 box and there are no performance advantages: loopback, single nfqueue, queueing in -t filter INPUT: traffic generated by 8 * ping -q -f localhost: socket backend: real 0m27.325s user 0m3.993s sys 0m23.292s with mmap ring backend: real 0m29.054s user 0m4.924s sys 0m24.127s with single tcp stream, unidirectional, loopback mtu set at 1500 (nc localhost discard < /dev/zero > /dev/null): socket interface: time nfqdump -b $((8 * 1024 * 1024 * 1024)) -w /dev/null real 0m15.960s user 0m1.756s sys 0m11.143s mmap ring: real 0m16.441s user 0m3.040s sys 0m13.687s socket interface nfqdump[1] with --gso option (i.e. MTU is exceeded, no kernel-side segmentation and checksum fixups) completes in about 5s. I also tested dumping a conntrack table with 1m entries. On my box this takes about 2.4 seconds for both mmap and socket backend: time LD_PRELOAD=../../src/.libs/libmnl.so ./nfct-dump-sk > /dev/null mnl_cb_run: Success messages: 1000000 real 0m2.485s user 0m1.085s sys 0m1.400s time LD_PRELOAD=../../src/.libs/libmnl.so ./nfct-dump-mmap > /dev/null messages: 1000000 real 0m2.451s user 0m1.124s sys 0m1.328s [1] https://git.breakpoint.cc/cgit/fw/nfqdump.git/ ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Florian Westphal authored
mmapped netlink has a number of unresolved issues: - TX zerocopy support had to be disabled more than a year ago via commit 4682a035 ("netlink: Always copy on mmap TX.") because the content of the mmapped area can change after netlink attribute validation but before message processing. - RX support was implemented mainly to speed up nfqueue dumping packet payload to userspace. However, since commit ae08ce00 ("netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: zero copy support") we avoid one copy with the socket-based interface too (via the skb_zerocopy helper). The other problem is that skbs attached to mmaped netlink socket behave different from normal skbs: - they don't have a shinfo area, so all functions that use skb_shinfo() (e.g. skb_clone) cannot be used. - reserving headroom prevents userspace from seeing the content as it expects message to start at skb->head. See for instance commit aa3a0220 ("netlink: not trim skb for mmaped socket when dump"). - skbs handed e.g. to netlink_ack must have non-NULL skb->sk, else we crash because it needs the sk to check if a tx ring is attached. Also not obvious, leads to non-intuitive bug fixes such as 7c7bdf35 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: use original skbuff when acking batches"). mmaped netlink also didn't play nicely with the skb_zerocopy helper used by nfqueue and openvswitch. Daniel Borkmann fixed this via commit 6bb0fef4 ("netlink, mmap: fix edge-case leakages in nf queue zero-copy")' but at the cost of also needing to provide remaining length to the allocation function. nfqueue also has problems when used with mmaped rx netlink: - mmaped netlink doesn't allow use of nfqueue batch verdict messages. Problem is that in the mmap case, the allocation time also determines the ordering in which the frame will be seen by userspace (A allocating before B means that A is located in earlier ring slot, but this also means that B might get a lower sequence number then A since seqno is decided later. To fix this we would need to extend the spinlocked region to also cover the allocation and message setup which isn't desirable. - nfqueue can now be configured to queue large (GSO) skbs to userspace. Queing GSO packets is faster than having to force a software segmentation in the kernel, so this is a desirable option. However, with a mmap based ring one has to use 64kb per ring slot element, else mmap has to fall back to the socket path (NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY) for all large packets. To use the mmap interface, userspace not only has to probe for mmap netlink support, it also has to implement a recv/socket receive path in order to handle messages that exceed the size of an rx ring element.

When VLANs are created / destroyed on a VLAN filtering bridge (MASTER flag set), the configuration is passed down to the hardware. However, when only the flags (e.g. PVID) are toggled, the configuration is done in the software bridge alone. While it is possible to pass these flags to hardware when invoked with the SELF flag set, this creates inconsistency with regards to the way the VLANs are initially configured. Pass the flags down to the hardware even when the VLAN already exists and only the flags are toggled.

divamnt stores a start_time at module init and uses it to calculate elapsed time. The elapsed time, stored in secs and usecs, is part of the trace data the driver maintains for the DIVA Server ISDN cards. No change to the format of that time data is required. To avoid overflow on 32-bit systems use ktime_get_ts64() to return the elapsed monotonic time since system boot. This is a change from real to monotonic time. Since the driver only stores elapsed time, monotonic time is sufficient and more robust against real time clock changes. These new monotonic values can be more useful for debugging because they can be easily compared to other monotonic timestamps. Note elaspsed time values will now start at system boot time rather than module load time, so they will differ slightly from previously reported values. Remove declaration and init of previously unused time constants: start_sec, start_usec.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-02-17 This series contains updates to i40e/i40evf once again. Mitch updates the use of a define instead of a magic number. Adds support for packet split receive on VFs, which is disabled by default. Expands on a code comment which was not verbose or really helpful. Fixes an issue where if a reset fails to complete and was not properly setting the adapter state, which would cause a panic on rmmod, so set the adpater state to DOWN to avoid a panic. Jesse cleans up a "dump" in debugfs that never panned out to be useful. Anjali adds a workaround for cases where we might have interrupts that get lost but wright-back (WB) happened. Fixes an issue by falling back to enabling unicast, multicast and broadcast promiscuous mode when the driver must disable it's use of "default port" (defport mode) due to internal incompatibility with Multiple Function per Port (MFP). Fixes an issue where queues should never be enabled/disabled in the interrupt handler. Kiran cleans up th code which used hard coded base VEB SEID since it was removed from the specification. Shannon adds a few bits for better debug messages. Fixes an obscure corner case, where it was possible to clear the NVM update wait flag when no update_done message was actually received. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

In MFP mode particularly when we were setting the PF VSI in limited promiscuous, the HW switch was still mirroring the outgoing packets from other VSIs (VF/VMdq) onto the PF VSI. With this new bit set, the mirroring doesn't happen any more and so we are in limited promiscuous on the PF VSI in MFP which is similar to defport. An API check is not required, since this bit is reserved for FW API version < 1.5 Also update copyright year in file headers.

If a reset fails to complete, the driver gets its affairs in order and awaits the cold solace of rmmod. Unfortunately, it was not properly setting the adapter state, which would cause a panic on rmmod, instead of the desired surcease. Set the adapter state to DOWN in this case, and avoid a panic.

In the case where we have a page fully used by receive data, we need to release the page fully to the stack. Instead of calling get_page (which increments the page count) followed by free_page (which decrements the page count), just donate our reference to the stack. Although this donation is not tax deductible, it does allow us to avoid two very expensive atomic operations that reverse each other.

This patch falls back to enabling unicast, multicast and broadcast promiscuous mode when the driver must disable it's use of "default port" aka defport mode (which is normally used to provide a promiscuous mode), due to internal incompatibility with Multiple Function per Port (aka MFP). The situation that requires this patch is when Physical Function 0 is the device being used, and it can support SR-IOV when MFP is enabled, via the driver creating a VEB on an MFP enabled adapter.

This patch adds a workaround for cases where we might have interrupts that got lost but WB happened. If that happens without this patch we will see a tx_timeout. To work around it, this patch goes ahead and reschedules NAPI in that situation, if NAPI is not already scheduled. We also add a counter in ethtool to keep track of when we detect a case of tx_lost_interrupt. Note: napi_reschedule() can be safely called from process/service_task context and is done in other drivers as well without an issue.

Jiri Benc says: ==================== vxlan: clean up rx path, consolidating extension handling The rx path of VXLAN turned over time into kind of spaghetti code. The rx processing is split between vxlan_udp_encap_recv and vxlan_rcv but in an artificial way: vxlan_rcv is just called at the end of vxlan_udp_encap_recv, continuing the rx processing where vxlan_udp_encap_recv left it. There's no clear border between those two functions. It makes sense to combine those functions into one; this will be actually needed for VXLAN-GPE where we'll need to skip part of the processing which is hard to do with the current code. However, both functions are too long already. This patchset is shortening them, consolidating extension handling that is spread all around together and moving it to separate functions. (Later patchsets will do more consolidation in other parts of the functions with the final goal of merging vxlan_udp_encap_recv and vxlan_rcv.) In process of consolidation of the extension handling, I needed to deal with vni field in a generic way, as its lower 8 bits mean different things for different extensions. While cleaning up the code to strictly distinguish between "vni" and "vni field" (which contains vni plus an additional byte), I also converted the code not to convert endianess back and forth.
