1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-03-17
This series contains updates to mainly igb, with one fix for ixgbe.
Alex does all the changes in the series, starting with adding support
for DMA_ATTR_WEAK_ORDERING to improve performance on some platforms.
Modified igb to use the length of the packet instead of the DD status
bit to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed. Modified
the driver to only go through the region in the receive ring that was
designated to be cleaned up, instead of going through the entire ring
on cleanup. Cleaned up the transmit side, by clearing the transmit
buffer_info only when resetting the rings. Added a new upper limit for
receive, which is based on the size of a 2K buffer minus padding, which
will allow us to support build_skb going forward. Fixed ethtool testing
to only sync on the size of the frame that is being tested, instead of
the entire receive buffer. Updated the handling of page addresses to
always use a void pointer with the consistent name of "va" to indicate
that we are working with a virtual address. Added a "chicken bit" so
that we can turn off the new receive allocation feature, in the case
where we need to fallback to the legacy receive path. Added support for
using 3K buffers in order 1 pages the same way we were using 2K buffers
in 4K pages. Added support for padding packet, since we limit the size
of the frame, we are able to write to an offset within the buffer instead
of having to write at the very start of the buffer. This allows us to
leaving padding room for things like supporting XDP in the future.
Refactored the receive buffer page management, since there are 2-3 paths
that can be taken depending on what receive modes are enabled, so to
improve maintainability, break out the common bits into their own
functions. Add support for build_skb, again. Lastly, fixed a typo in
igb and ixgbe code comments.

of igb. We are now able to revert the removal of this due to the fact

This patch adds support for using 3K buffers in order 1 pages the same way
we were using 2K buffers in 4K pages. We are reserving 1K of room for now
to have space available for future headroom and tailroom when we enable
build_skb support.
One side effect of this patch is that we can end up using a larger buffer
if jumbo frames is enabled. The impact shouldn't be too great, but it
could hurt small packet performance for UDP workloads if jumbo frames is
enabled as the truesize of frames will be larger.

Since there are potential drawbacks to the new Rx allocation approach I
thought it best to add a "chicken bit" so that we can turn the feature off
if in the event that a problem is found.
It also provides a means of validating the legacy Rx path in the event that
we are forced to fall back. At some point in the future when we are
convinced we don't need it anymore we might be able to drop the legacy-rx
flag.

In the case of the Tx rings we need to only clear the Tx buffer_info when
we are resetting the rings. Ideally we do this when we configure the ring
to bring it back up instead of when we are taking it down in order to avoid
dirtying pages we don't need to.
In addition we don't need to clear the Tx descriptor ring since we will
fully repopulate it when we begin transmitting frames and next_to_watch can
be cleared to prevent the ring from being cleaned beyond that point instead
of needing to touch anything in the Tx descriptor ring.
Finally with these changes we can avoid having to reset the skb member of
the Tx buffer_info structure in the cleanup path since the skb will always
be associated with the first buffer which has next_to_watch set.

This change makes it so that instead of going through the entire ring on Rx
cleanup we only go through the region that was designated to be cleaned up
and stop when we reach the region where new allocations should start.
In addition we can avoid having to perform a memset on the Rx buffer_info
structures until we are about to start using the ring again. By deferring
this we can avoid dirtying the cache any more than we have to which can
help to improve the time needed to bring the interface down and then back
up again in a reset or suspend/resume cycle.

This change makes it so that we use the length of the packet instead of the
DD status bit to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed.
The obvious advantage is that it cuts down on reads as we don't really even
need the DD bit if going from a 0 to a non-zero value on size is enough to
inform us that the packet has been completed.
In addition I have updated the code so that we only reset the Rx descriptor
length for descriptor zero when resetting a ring instead of having to do a
memset with 0 over the entire ring. By doing this we can save some time on
initialization.

sunvnet: better connection management

The sunvnet netdev is connected to the controlling ldom's vswitch
for network bridging. However, for higher performance between ldoms,
there also is a channel between each client ldom. These connections are
represented in the sunvnet driver by a queue for each ldom. The driver
uses select_queue to tell the stack which queue to use by tracking the mac
addresses on the other end of each port. When a connected ldom shuts down,
the driver receives an LDC_EVENT_RESET and the port is removed from the
driver, thus a queue with no ldom on the other end will never be selected
for Tx.
The driver was trying to reinforce the "don't use this queue" notion with
netif_tx_stop_queue() and netif_tx_wake_queue(), which really should only
be used to signal a Tx queue is full (aka XOFF). This misuse of queue
state resulted in NETDEV WATCHDOG messages and lots of unnecessary calls
into the driver's tx_timeout handler. Simply removing these takes care
of the problem.

us all the traffic in and out of our network device, but don't show
individual queue/port stats. This patch breaks out the traffic counts
for the individual ports and gives us a little view into the state of

When an ldom VM is bound, the network vswitch infrastructure is set up for
it, but was being forced 'UP' by the userland switch configuration script.
When 'UP' but not actually connected to a running VM, the ipv6 neighbor
probes fail (not a horrible thing) and start cluttering up the kernel logs.
Funny thing: these are debug messages that never actually show up, but
we do see the net_ratelimited messages that say N callbacks were
suppressed.
This patch defers the netif_carrier_on() until an actual link has been
established with the VM, as indicated by receiving an LDC_EVENT_UP from
the underlying LDC protocol. Similarly, we take the link down when we
see the LDC_EVENT_RESET. Now when we see the ndo_open(), we reset the
link to get things talking again.

All IRQs owned by the PF and VF drivers share the same nondescript name
"octeon"; this makes it difficult to setup interrupt affinity.
Change the IRQ names to reflect their specific purpose:
LiquidIO<id>-<func>-<type>-<queue pair num>
Examples:
LiquidIO0-pf0-rxtx-3
LiquidIO1-vf1-rxtx-0
LiquidIO0-pf0-aux
We cannot use netdev->name for naming the IRQs because:
1. Early during init, the PF and VF drivers require interrupts to
send/receive control data from the NIC firmware; so the PF and VF
must request IRQs long before the netdev struct is registered.
2. The IRQ name can only be specified at the time it is requested.
It cannot be changed after that.

I recently reported on the netem list that iperf network benchmarks
show unexpected results when a bandwidth throttling rate has been
configured for netem. Specifically:
1) The measured link bandwidth *increases* when a higher delay is added
2) The measured link bandwidth appears higher than the specified limit
3) The measured link bandwidth for the same very slow settings varies significantly across
machines
The issue can be reproduced by using tc to configure netem with a
512kbit rate and various (none, 1us, 50ms, 100ms, 200ms) delays on a
veth pair between network namespaces, and then using iperf (or any
other network benchmarking tool) to test throughput. Complete detailed
instructions are in the original email chain here:
https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/pipermail/netem/2017-February/001672.html
There appear to be two underlying bugs causing these effects:
- The first issue causes long delays when the rate is slow and no
delay is configured (e.g., "rate 512kbit"). This is because SKBs are
not orphaned when no delay is configured, so orphaning does not
occur until *after* the rate-induced delay has been applied. For
this reason, adding a tiny delay (e.g., "rate 512kbit delay 1us")
dramatically increases the measured bandwidth.
- The second issue is that rate-induced delays are not correctly
applied, allowing SKB delays to occur in parallel. The indended
approach is to compute the delay for an SKB and to add this delay to
the end of the current queue. However, the code does not detect
existing SKBs in the queue due to improperly testing sch->q.qlen,
which is nonzero even when packets exist only in the
rbtree. Consequently, new SKBs do not wait for the current queue to
empty. When packet delays vary significantly (e.g., if packet sizes
are different), then this also causes unintended reordering.
I modified the code to expect a delay (and orphan the SKB) when a rate
is configured. I also added some defensive tests that correctly find
the latest scheduled delivery time, even if it is (unexpectedly) for a
packet in sch->q. I have tested these changes on the latest kernel
(4.11.0-rc1+) and the iperf / ping test results are as expected.

The code introduced by commit 2ccccf5fb4 ("net_sched: update

but not using that anywhere, remove that setting.

Allows the BCMA version of the bgmac driver to obtain MAC address
from the device tree. If no MAC address is specified there, then
the previous behavior (obtaining MAC address from SPROM) is
used.

CONFIG_8xx is deprecated and should soon be removed in favor
of CONFIG_PPC_8xx.
Anyway, hfc_multi_8xx.h only uses 8xx I/O ports which are
linked to the CPM1 communication processor included in the 8xx
rather than the 8xx itself.
This patch therefore makes it dependent on CONFIG_CPM1 instead,
like several other drivers.

mlxsw: Enable VRF offload
Ido says:
Packets received from netdevs enslaved to different VRF devices are
forwarded using different FIB tables. In the Spectrum ASIC this is
achieved by binding different router interfaces (RIFs) to different
virtual routers (VRs). Each RIF represents an enslaved netdev and each
VR has its own FIB table according to which packets are forwarded.
The first three patches add an helper to check if a FIB rule is a
default rule and extend the FIB notification chain to include the rule's
info as part of the RULE_{ADD,DEL} events. This allows offloading
drivers to sanitize the rules they don't support and flush their tables.
The fourth patch introduces a small change in the VRF driver to allow
capable drivers to more easily offload VRFs.
Finally, the last patches gradually add support for VRFs in the mlxsw
driver. First, on top of port netdevs, stacked LAG and VLAN devices and
then on top of bridges.
Some limitations I would like to point out:
1) The old model where 'oif' / 'iif' rules were programmed for each L3
master device isn't supported. Upon insertion of these rules the driver
will flush its tables and forwarding will be done by the kernel instead.
It's inferior in every way to the single 'l3mdev' rule, so this shouldn't
be an issue.
2) Inter-VRF routes pointing to a VRF device aren't offloaded. Packets
hitting these routes will be forwarded by the kernel. Inter-VRF routes
pointing to netdevs enslaved to a different VRF are offloaded.
3) There's a small discrepancy between the kernel's datapath and the
device's. By default, packets forwarded by the kernel first do a lookup
in the local table and then in the VRF's table (assuming no match). In
the device, lookup is done only in the VRF's table, which is probably
the intended behavior. Changes in v2 allow user to properly re-order the
default rules without triggering the abort mechanism.
Changes in v3:
* Remove 'l3mdev' from the matchall list, as it's related to the action
and not the selector (David Ahern).
* Use container_of() instead of typecasting (David Ahern).
* Add David's Acked-by to the second patch.
* Add an helper in IPv4 code to check if rule is a default rule (David
Ahern).
Changes in v2:
* Drop default rule indication and allow re-ordering of default rules
(David Ahern).
* Remove ifdef around 'struct fib_rule_notifier_info' and drop redundant
dependency on IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES from rocker and mlxsw.
* Add David's Acked-by to the fourth patch.
* Remove netif_is_vrf_master() and use netif_is_l3_master() instead
(David Ahern).
