mlxsw fails device enslavement for a number of reasons. Use the extack facility to return an error message to the user stating why the enslave is failing. Messages are prefixed with "spectrum" so users know it is a constraint imposed by the hardware driver. For example: $ ip li add br0.11 link br0 type vlan id 11 $ ip li set swp11 master br0 Error: spectrum: Enslaving a port to a device that already has an upper device is not supported.

x-netns interfaces are bound to two netns: the link netns and the upper netns. Usually, this kind of interfaces is created in the link netns and then moved to the upper netns. At the end, the interface is visible only in the upper netns. The link nsid is advertised via netlink in the upper netns, thus the user always knows where is the link part. There is no such mechanism in the link netns. When the interface is moved to another netns, the user cannot "follow" it. This patch adds a new netlink attribute which helps to follow an interface which moves to another netns. When the interface is unregistered, the new nsid is advertised. If the interface is a x-netns interface (ie rtnl_link_ops->get_link_net is defined), the nsid is allocated if needed. CC: Jason A.

Alexei Starovoitov says: ==================== bpf: muli prog support for cgroup-bpf v1->v2: - fixed accidentally swapped two lines which caused static_key not going to zero - addressed Martin's feedback and changed prog_query to be consistent with verifier output: return -enospc and fill supplied buffer instead of just returning -enospc when buffer is too small to fit all prog_ids v1: cgroup-bpf use cases are getting more advanced and running only one program per cgroup is no longer enough. Therefore introduce support for attaching multiple programs per cgroup and running a set of effective programs. These patches introduces BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag for BPF_PROG_ATTACH cmd. The default is still NONE and behavior of BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag is unchanged. The difference between three possible flags for BPF_PROG_ATTACH command: - NONE(default): No further bpf programs allowed in the subtree. - BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, the program in this cgroup yields to sub-cgroup program. - BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, that cgroup program gets run in addition to the program in this cgroup. Most of the logic is in patch 1. Even when cgroup doesn't have any programs attached its set of effective program can be non-empty. To quickly execute them and avoid penalizing cgroups without any effective programs introduce 'struct bpf_prog_array' which has an optimization for cgroups with zero effective programs. Patch 2 introduces BPF_PROG_QUERY command for introspection Patch 3 makes verifier more strict for cgroup-bpf program types. Patch 4+ are tests.

introduce BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag that can be used to attach multiple bpf programs to a cgroup. The difference between three possible flags for BPF_PROG_ATTACH command: - NONE(default): No further bpf programs allowed in the subtree. - BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, the program in this cgroup yields to sub-cgroup program. - BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI: If a sub-cgroup installs some bpf program, that cgroup program gets run in addition to the program in this cgroup. NONE and BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE existed before. This patch doesn't change their behavior. It only clarifies the semantics in relation to new flag. Only one program is allowed to be attached to a cgroup with NONE or BPF_F_ALLOW_OVERRIDE flag. Multiple programs are allowed to be attached to a cgroup with BPF_F_ALLOW_MULTI flag. They are executed in FIFO order (those that were attached first, run first) The programs of sub-cgroup are executed first, then programs of this cgroup and then programs of parent cgroup. All eligible programs are executed regardless of return code from earlier programs. To allow efficient execution of multiple programs attached to a cgroup and to avoid penalizing cgroups without any programs attached introduce 'struct bpf_prog_array' which is RCU protected array of pointers to bpf programs.

Add support for RX checksum offload. This is enabled by default and may be disabled and re-enabled using ethtool: # ethtool -K eth0 rx off # ethtool -K eth0 rx on The RAVB provides a simple checksumming scheme which appears to be completely compatible with CHECKSUM_COMPLETE: sum of all packet data after the L2 header is appended to packet data; this may be trivially read by the driver and used to update the skb accordingly. In terms of performance throughput is close to gigabit line-rate both with and without RX checksum offload enabled.

Marcelo Ricardo Leitner says: ==================== Introduce SCTP Stream Schedulers This patchset introduces the SCTP Stream Schedulers are defined by https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-sctp-ndata-13 It provides 3 schedulers at the moment: FCFS, Priority and Round Robin. The other 3, Round Robin per packet, Fair Capacity and Weighted Fair Capacity will be added later. More specifically, WFQ is required by WebRTC Datachannels. The draft also defines the idata chunk, allowing a usermsg to be interrupted by another piece of idata from another stream. This patchset *doesn't* include it. It will be posted later by Xin Long. Its integration with this patchset is very simple and it basically only requires a tweak in sctp_sched_dequeue_done(), to ignore datamsg boundaries. The first 5 patches are a preparation for the next ones. The most relevant patches are the 4th and 6th ones. More details are available on each patch. v2: changelog update on patch 3 ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.2 Priority Based Scheduler (SCTP_SS_RR). Works by maintaining a list of enqueued streams and tracking the last one used to send data.

Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
This patch introduces RFC Draft ndata section 3.4 Priority Based Scheduler (SCTP_SS_PRIO). It works by having a struct sctp_stream_priority for each priority configured. This struct is then enlisted on a queue ordered per priority if, and only if, there is a stream with data queued, so that dequeueing is very straightforward: either finish current datamsg or simply dequeue from the highest priority queued, which is the next stream pointed, and that's it. If there are multiple streams assigned with the same priority and with data queued, it will do round robin amongst them while respecting datamsgs boundaries (when not using idata chunks), to be reasonably fair. We intentionally don't maintain a list of priorities nor a list of all streams with the same priority to save memory. The first would mean at least 2 other pointers per priority (which, for 1000 priorities, that can mean 16kB) and the second would also mean 2 other pointers but per stream. As SCTP supports up to 65535 streams on a given asoc, that's 1MB. This impacts when giving a priority to some stream, as we have to find out if the new priority is already being used and if we can free the old one, and also when tearing down. The new fields in struct sctp_stream_out_ext and sctp_stream are added under a union because that memory is to be shared with other schedulers.

Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
This patch introduces the hooks necessary to do stream scheduling, as per RFC Draft ndata. It also introduces the first scheduler, which is what we do today but now factored out: first come first served (FCFS). With stream scheduling now we have to track which chunk was enqueued on which stream and be able to select another other than the in front of the main outqueue. So we introduce a list on sctp_stream_out_ext structure for this purpose. We reuse sctp_chunk->transmitted_list space for the list above, as the chunk cannot belong to the two lists at the same time. By using the union in there, we can have distinct names for these moments. sctp_sched_ops are the operations expected to be implemented by each scheduler. The dequeueing is a bit particular to this implementation but it is to match how we dequeue packets today. We first dequeue and then check if it fits the packet and if not, we requeue it at head. Thus why we don't have a peek operation but have dequeue_done instead, which is called once the chunk can be safely considered as transmitted. The check removed from sctp_outq_flush is now performed by sctp_stream_outq_migrate, which is only called during assoc setup. (sctp_sendmsg() also checks for it) The only operation that is foreseen but not yet added here is a way to signalize that a new packet is starting or that the packet is done, for round robin scheduler per packet, but is intentionally left to the patch that actually implements it. Support for I-DATA chunks, also described in this RFC, with user message interleaving is straightforward as it just requires the schedulers to probe for the feature and ignore datamsg boundaries when dequeueing.

With the stream schedulers, sctp_stream_out will become too big to be allocated by kmalloc and as we need to allocate with BH disabled, we cannot use __vmalloc in sctp_stream_init(). This patch moves out the stats from sctp_stream_out to sctp_stream_out_ext, which will be allocated only when the application tries to sendmsg something on it. Just the introduction of sctp_stream_out_ext would already fix the issue described above by splitting the allocation in two. Moving the stats to it also reduces the pressure on the allocator as we will ask for less memory atomically when creating the socket and we will use GFP_KERNEL later. Then, for stream schedulers, we will just use sctp_stream_out_ext.

As SCTP supports up to 65535 streams, that can lead to very large allocations in sctp_stream_init(). As Xin Long noticed, systems with small amounts of memory are more prone to not have enough memory and dump warnings on dmesg initiated by user actions. Thus, silence them. Also, if the reallocation of stream->out is not necessary, skip it and keep the memory we already have.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-10-03 This series contains updates to fm10k only. Jake provides majority of the changes in this series, starting with using fm10k_prepare_for_reset() if we lose PCIe link. Before we would detach the device and close the netdev, which left a lot of items still active, such as the Tx/Rx resources. This could cause problems where register reads would return potentially invalid values and would result in unknown driver behavior, so call fm10k_prepare_for_reset() much like we do for suspend/resume cycles. This will attempt to shutdown as much as possible to prevent possible issues. Then replaced the PCI specific legacy power management hooks with the new generic power management hooks for both suspend and hibernate. Introduced a workqueue item which monitors a queue of MAC and VLAN requests since a large number of MAC address or VLAN updates at once can overload the mailbox with too many messages at once. Fixed a cppcheck warning by properly declaring the min_rate and max_rate variables in the declaration and definition for .ndo_set_vf_bw, rather than using "unused" for the minimum rates.

Device alias can be set by either rtnetlink (rtnl is held) or sysfs. rtnetlink hold the rtnl mutex, sysfs acquires it for this purpose. Add an extra mutex for it and use rcu to protect concurrent accesses. This allows the sysfs path to not take rtnl and would later allow to not hold it when dumping ifalias.

Some NIC drivers don't have correct speed/duplex settings at the time they send NETDEV_UP notification and that messes up the bonding state. Especially 802.3ad mode which is very sensitive to these settings. In the current implementation we invoke bond_update_speed_duplex() when we receive NETDEV_UP, however, ignore the return value. If the values we get are invalid (UNKNOWN), then slave gets removed from the aggregator with speed and duplex set to UNKNOWN while link is still marked as UP. This patch fixes this scenario. Also 802.3ad mode is sensitive to these conditions while other modes are not, so making sure that it doesn't change the behavior for other modes.
