io_uring/zcrx: add interface queue and refill queue

2025-02-17T12:41:03+00:00

Add a new object called an interface queue (ifq) that represents a net rx queue that has been configured for zero copy. Each ifq is registered using a new registration opcode IORING_REGISTER_ZCRX_IFQ. The refill queue is allocated by the kernel and mapped by userspace using a new offset IORING_OFF_RQ_RING, in a similar fashion to the main SQ/CQ. It is used by userspace to return buffers that it is done with, which will then be re-used by the netdev again. The main CQ ring is used to notify userspace of received data by using the upper 16 bytes of a big CQE as a new struct io_uring_zcrx_cqe. Each entry contains the offset + len to the data. For now, each io_uring instance only has a single ifq.

kbuild: ensure full rebuild when the compiler is updated

2020-05-12T04:28:33+00:00

Commit 21c54b774744 ("kconfig: show compiler version text in the top comment") added the environment variable, CC_VERSION_TEXT in the comment of the top Kconfig file. It can detect the compiler update, and invoke the syncconfig because all environment variables referenced in Kconfig files are recorded in include/config/auto.conf.cmd This commit makes it a CONFIG option in order to ensure the full rebuild when the compiler is updated. This works like follows: include/config/kconfig.h contains "CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT" in the comment block. The top Makefile specifies "-include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h" to guarantee it is included from all kernel source files. fixdep parses every source file and all headers included from it, searching for words prefixed with "CONFIG_". Then, fixdep finds CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT in include/config/kconfig.h and adds include/config/cc/version/text.h into every .*.cmd file. When the compiler is updated, syncconfig is invoked because init/Kconfig contains the reference to the environment variable CC_VERTION_TEXT. CONFIG_CC_VERSION_TEXT is updated to the new version string, and include/config/cc/version/text.h is touched. In the next rebuild, Make will rebuild every files since the timestamp of include/config/cc/version/text.h is newer than that of target. Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

docs: kbuild: convert docs to ReST and rename to *.rst

2019-06-14T20:21:21+00:00

The kbuild documentation clearly shows that the documents there are written at different times: some use markdown, some use their own peculiar logic to split sections. Convert everything to ReST without affecting too much the author's style and avoiding adding uneeded markups. The conversion is actually: - add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs; - fix tables markups; - add some lists markups; - mark literal blocks; - adjust title markups. At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

docs: Kbuild/Makefile: allow check for missing docs at build time

2019-06-07T17:33:16+00:00

While this doesn't make sense for production Kernels, in order to avoid regressions when documents are touched, let's add a check target at the make file. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet

kconfig: move the "Executable file formats" menu to fs/Kconfig.binfmt

Kconfig: consolidate the "Kernel hacking" menu

2018-08-01T23:06:48+00:00

Move the source of lib/Kconfig.debug and arch/$(ARCH)/Kconfig.debug to the top-level Kconfig. For two architectures that means moving their arch-specific symbols in that menu into a new arch Kconfig.debug file, and for a few more creating a dummy file so that we can include it unconditionally. Also move the actual 'Kernel hacking' menu to lib/Kconfig.debug, where it belongs. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

kconfig: include common Kconfig files from top-level Kconfig

2018-08-01T23:03:23+00:00

Instead of duplicating the source statements in every architecture just do it once in the toplevel Kconfig file. Note that with this the inclusion of arch/$(SRCARCH/Kconfig moves out of the top-level Kconfig into arch/Kconfig so that don't violate ordering constraits while keeping a sensible menu structure.

kconfig: show compiler version text in the top comment

2018-05-28T18:31:19+00:00

The kernel configuration phase is now tightly coupled with the compiler in use. It will be nice to show the compiler information in Kconfig. The compiler information will be displayed like this: $ make ARCH=arm64 CROSS_COMPILE=aarch64-linux-gnu- config scripts/kconfig/conf --oldaskconfig Kconfig * * Linux/arm64 4.16.0-rc1 Kernel Configuration * * * Compiler: aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 7.2-2017.11) 7.2.1 20171011 * * * General setup * Compile also drivers which will not load (COMPILE_TEST) [N/y/?] If you use GUI methods such as menuconfig, it will be displayed in the top menu. This is simply implemented by using the 'comment' statement. So, it will be saved into the .config file as well. This commit has a very important meaning. If the compiler is upgraded, Kconfig must be re-run since different compilers have different sets of supported options. All referenced environments are written to include/config/auto.conf.cmd so that any environment change triggers syncconfig, and prompt the user to input new values if needed. With this commit, something like follows will be added to include/config/auto.conf.cmd ifneq "$(CC_VERSION_TEXT)" "aarch64-linux-gnu-gcc (Linaro GCC 7.2-2017.11) 7.2.1 20171011" include/config/auto.conf: FORCE endif Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada Reviewed-by: Kees Cook
