net/mlx5: Add ability to insert to specific flow group

2022-02-23T23:21:58+00:00

If the flow table isn't an autogroup the upper driver has to create the flow groups explicitly. This information can't later be used when creating rules to insert into a specific flow group. Allow such use case. Signed-off-by: Mark Bloch Reviewed-by: Maor Gottlieb Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed

net/mlx5: Separate FDB namespace

2021-12-14T00:02:59+00:00

This patch doesn't add an additional namespaces, but just separates the naming to be used by each FDB user, bypass and kernel. Downstream patches will actually split this up and allow to have more than single priority for the bypass users.

net/mlx5: Allow skipping counter refresh on creation

2021-10-29T20:53:28+00:00

CT creates a counter for each CT rule, and for each such counter, fs_counters tries to queue mlx5_fc_stats_work() work again via mod_delayed_work(0) call to refresh all counters. This call has a large performance impact when reaching high insertion rate and accounts for ~8% of the insertion time when using software steering. Allow skipping the refresh of all counters during counter creation. Change CT to use this refresh skipping for it's counters.

net/mlx5: Add support to create match definer

2021-10-19T03:18:07+00:00

Introduce new APIs to create and destroy flow matcher for given format id. Flow match definer object is used for defining the fields and mask used for the hash calculation. User should mask the desired fields like done in the match criteria. This object is assigned to flow group of type hash. In this flow group type, packets lookup is done based on the hash result. This patch also adds the required bits to create such flow group. Signed-off-by: Maor Gottlieb Reviewed-by: Mark Bloch Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed

net/mlx5: Introduce port selection namespace

2021-10-19T03:18:07+00:00

Add new port selection flow steering namespace. Flow steering rules in this namespaceare are used to determine the physical port for egress packets. Signed-off-by: Maor Gottlieb Reviewed-by: Mark Bloch Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed

net/mlx5: Add priorities for counters in RDMA namespaces

2021-10-09T09:03:42+00:00

Add additional flow steering priorities in the RDMA namespace. This allows adding flow counters to count filtered RDMA traffic and then continue processing in the regular RDMA steering flow.

net/mlx5: Bridge, add offload infrastructure

2021-06-10T01:36:09+00:00

Create new files bridge.{c|h} in en/rep directory that implement bridge interaction with representor netdevices and handle required events/notifications, bridge.{c|h} in esw directory that implement all necessary eswitch offloading infrastructure and works on vport/eswitch level. Provide new kconfig MLX5_BRIDGE which is automatically selected when both kernel bridge and mlx5 eswitch configs are enabled. Provide basic infrastructure for bridge offloads: - struct mlx5_esw_bridge_offloads - per-eswitch bridge offload structure that encapsulates generic bridge-offloads data (notifier blocks, ingress flow table/group, etc.) that is created/deleted on enable/disable eswitch offloads. - struct mlx5_esw_bridge - per-bridge structure that encapsulates per-bridge data (reference counter, FDB, egress flow table/group, etc.) that is created when first eswitch represetor is attached to new bridge and deleted when last representor is removed from the bridge as a result of NETDEV_CHANGEUPPER event. The bridge tables are created with new priority FDB_BR_OFFLOAD in FDB namespace. The new priority is between tc-miss and slow path priorities. Priority consist of two levels: the ingress table that is global per eswitch and matches incoming packets by src_mac/vid and redirects them to next level (egress table) that is chosen according to ingress port bridge membership and matches on dst_mac/vid in order to redirect packet to vport according to the following diagram: + | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_TC_OFFLOAD | | | +---------+----------+ | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_FT_OFFLOAD | | | +---------+----------+ | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_TC_MISS | | | +---------+----------+ | +--------------------------------------+ | | | | +------+ | | | | | +------v--------+ FDB_BR_OFFLOAD | | | INGRESS_TABLE | | | +------+---+----+ | | | | match | | | +---------+ | | | | | +-------+ | | +-------v-------+ match | | | | | | EGRESS_TABLE +------------> vport | | | +-------+-------+ | | | | | | | +-------+ | | miss | | | +------+------+ | | | | +--------------------------------------+ | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_SLOW_PATH | | | +---------+----------+ | v Signed-off-by: Vlad Buslov Reviewed-by: Jianbo Liu Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed

net/mlx5: Create TC-miss priority and table

2021-06-10T01:36:08+00:00

In order to adhere to kernel software datapath model bridge offloads must come after TC and NF FDBs. Following patches in this series add new FDB priority for bridge after FDB_FT_OFFLOAD. However, since netfilter offload is implemented with unmanaged tables, its miss path is not automatically connected to next priority and requires the code to manually connect with slow table. To keep bridge offloads encapsulated and not mix it with eswitch offloads, create a new FDB_TC_MISS priority between FDB_FT_OFFLOAD and FDB_SLOW_PATH: + | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_TC_OFFLOAD | | | +---------+----------+ | | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_FT_OFFLOAD | | | +---------+----------+ | | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_TC_MISS | | | +---------+----------+ | | | +---------v----------+ | | | FDB_SLOW_PATH | | | +---------+----------+ | v Initialize the new priority with single default empty managed table and use the table as TC/NF miss patch instead of slow table. This approach allows bridge offloads to be created as new FDB namespace priority between FDB_TC_MISS and FDB_SLOW_PATH without exposing its internal tables to any other modules since miss path of managed TC-miss table is automatically wired to next priority.
