Or Gerlitz says: ==================== mlx4 driver update This series from Matan, Jenny, Dotan and myself is mostly about adding support to a new performance optimized flow steering mode (patches 4-10). The 1st two patches are small fixes (one for VXLAN and one for SRIOV), and the third patch is a fix to avoid hard-lockup situation when many (hunderds) processes holding user-space QPs/CQs get events. Matan and Or. ==================== Signed-off-by:David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT, QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used to configure and query the device. The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are: Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user in order to be used. Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user. In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS. Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user. The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized steering in Default A0 DMFS mode). Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll work at Disable A0 DMFS mode. Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled, older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag (MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that, the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too. In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param. If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this bit field enables static A0 steering. Signed-off-by:

A0 hybrid steering is a form of high performance flow steering. By using this mode, mlx4 cards use a fast limited table based steering, in order to enable fast steering of unicast packets to a QP. In order to implement A0 hybrid steering we allocate resources from different zones: (1) General range (2) Special MAC-assigned QPs [RSS, Raw-Ethernet] each has its own region. When we create a rss QP or a raw ethernet (A0 steerable and BF ready) QP, we try hard to allocate the QP from range (2). Otherwise, we try hard not to allocate from this range. However, when the system is pushed to its limits and one needs every resource, the allocator uses every region it can. Meaning, when we run out of raw-eth qps, the allocator allocates from the general range (and the special-A0 area is no longer active). If we run out of RSS qps, the mechanism tries to allocate from the raw-eth QP zone. If that is also exhausted, the allocator will allocate from the general range (and the A0 region is no longer active). Note that if a raw-eth qp is allocated from the general range, it attempts to allocate the range such that bits 6 and 7 (blueflame bits) in the QP number are not set. When the feature is used in SRIOV, the VF has to notify the PF what kind of QP attributes it needs. In order to do that, along with the "Eth QP blueflame" bit, we reserve a new "A0 steerable QP". According to the combination of these bits, the PF tries to allocate a suitable QP. In order to maintain backward compatibility (with older PFs), the PF notifies which QP attributes it supports via QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. Signed-off-by:

The zone allocator is a mechanism which manages a few mlx4_bitmaps. When allocating a resource, the user indicates the desired zone of which this resource will be allocated from. If possible, the resource will be allocated from this zone. Otherwise, the resource will be allocated from a less-than, equal-to, higher-than priority zone, according to the desired zone's properties with that respective allocation order. Signed-off-by:

When using BF (Blue-Flame), the QPN overrides the VLAN, CV, and SV fields in the WQE. Thus, BF may only be used for QPNs with bits 6,7 unset. The current Ethernet driver code reserves a Tx QP range with 256b alignment. This is wrong because if there are more than 64 Tx QPs in use, QPNs >= base + 65 will have bits 6/7 set. This problem is not specific for the Ethernet driver, any entity that tries to reserve more than 64 BF-enabled QPs should fail. Also, using ranges is not necessary here and is wasteful. The new mechanism introduced here will support reservation for "Eth QPs eligible for BF" for all drivers: bare-metal, multi-PF, and VFs (when hypervisors support WC in VMs). The flow we use is: 1. In mlx4_en, allocate Tx QPs one by one instead of a range allocation, and request "BF enabled QPs" if BF is supported for the function 2. In the ALLOC_RES FW command, change param1 to: a. param1[23:0] - number of QPs b. param1[31-24] - flags controlling QPs reservation Bit 31 refers to Eth blueflame supported QPs. Those QPs must have bits 6 and 7 unset in order to be used in Ethernet. Bits 24-30 of the flags are currently reserved. When a function tries to allocate a QP, it states the required attributes for this QP. Those attributes are considered "best-effort". If an attribute, such as Ethernet BF enabled QP, is a must-have attribute, the function has to check that attribute is supported before trying to do the allocation. In a lower layer of the code, mlx4_qp_reserve_range masks out the bits which are unsupported. If SRIOV is used, the PF validates those attributes and masks out unsupported attributes as well. In order to notify VFs which attributes are supported, the VF uses QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. This command's mailbox is filled by the PF, which notifies which QP allocation attributes it supports.

Previously, we've fired all our completion callbacks straight from our ISR. Some of those callbacks were lightweight (for example, mlx4_en's and IPoIB napi callbacks), but some of them did more work (for example, the user-space RDMA stack uverbs' completion handler). Besides that, doing more than the minimal work in ISR is generally considered wrong, it could even lead to a hard lockup of the system. Since when a lot of completion events are generated by the hardware, the loop over those events could be so long, that we'll get into a hard lockup by the system watchdog. In order to avoid that, add a new way of invoking completion events callbacks. In the interrupt itself, we add the CQs which receive completion event to a per-EQ list and schedule a tasklet. In the tasklet context we loop over all the CQs in the list and invoke the user callback. Signed-off-by:

The encapsulated offload flags shouldn't be unconditionally exported to the stack. The stack expects offloading to work across all tunnel types when those flags are set. This would break other tunnels (like GRE) since be2net currently supports tunnel offload for VxLAN only. Also, with VxLANs Skyhawk-R can offload only 1 UDP dport. If more than 1 UDP port is added, we should disable offloads in that case too. Signed-off-by:

As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill it entirely.

This patch effectively reverts commit 500f8087 ("net: ovs: use CRC32 accelerated flow hash if available"), and other remaining arch_fast_hash() users such as from nfsd via commit 6282cd56 ("NFSD: Don't hand out delegations for 30 seconds after recalling them.") where it has been used as a hash function for bloom filtering. While we think that these users are actually not much of concern, it has been requested to remove the arch_fast_hash() library bits that arose from [1] entirely as per recent discussion [2]. The main argument is that using it as a hash may introduce bias due to its linearity (see avalanche criterion) and thus makes it less clear (though we tried to document that) when this security/performance trade-off is actually acceptable for a general purpose library function. Lets therefore avoid any further confusion on this matter and remove it to prevent any future accidental misuse of it. For the time being, this is going to make hashing of flow keys a bit more expensive in the ovs case, but future work could reevaluate a different hashing discipline.

For netlink, we shouldn't be using arch_fast_hash() as a hashing discipline, but rather jhash() instead. Since netlink sockets can be opened by any user, a local attacker would be able to easily create collisions with the DPDK-derived arch_fast_hash(), which trades off performance for security by using crc32 CPU instructions on x86_64. While it might have a legimite use case in other places, it should be avoided in netlink context, though. As rhashtable's API is very flexible, we could later on still decide on other hashing disciplines, if legitimate.
