netkit: Allow for configuring needed_{head,tail}room

2025-01-06T08:48:49+00:00

Allow the user to configure needed_{head,tail}room for both netkit devices. The idea is similar to 163e529200af ("veth: implement ndo_set_rx_headroom") with the difference that the two parameters can be specified upon device creation. By default the current behavior stays as is which is needed_{head,tail}room is 0. In case of Cilium, for example, the netkit devices are not enslaved into a bridge or openvswitch device (rather, BPF-based redirection is used out of tcx), and as such these parameters are not propagated into the Pod's netns via peer device. Given Cilium can run in vxlan/geneve tunneling mode (needed_headroom) and/or be used in combination with WireGuard (needed_{head,tail}room), allow the Cilium CNI plugin to specify these two upon netkit device creation.

net: add IFLA_MAX_PACING_OFFLOAD_HORIZON device attribute

2024-10-04T22:37:53+00:00

Some network devices have the ability to offload EDT (Earliest Departure Time) which is the model used for TCP pacing and FQ packet scheduler. Some of them implement the timing wheel mechanism described in https://saeed.github.io/files/carousel-sigcomm17.pdf with an associated 'timing wheel horizon'. This patch adds dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon expressing this timing wheel horizon in nsec units. This is a read-only attribute. Unless a driver sets it, dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon is zero. v2: addressed Jakub feedback ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240930152304.472767-2-edumazet@google.com/T/#mf6294d714c41cc459962154cc2580ce3c9693663 ) v3: added yaml doc (also per Jakub feedback) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241003121219.2396589-2-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

bonding: Add independent control state machine

2024-02-06T12:17:54+00:00

Add support for the independent control state machine per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing implementation of the coupled control state machine. Introduces two new states, AD_MUX_COLLECTING and AD_MUX_DISTRIBUTING in the LACP MUX state machine for separated handling of an initial Collecting state before the Collecting and Distributing state. This enables a port to be in a state where it can receive incoming packets while not still distributing. This is useful for reducing packet loss when a port begins distributing before its partner is able to collect. Added new functions such as bond_set_slave_tx_disabled_flags and bond_set_slave_rx_enabled_flags to precisely manage the port's collecting and distributing states. Previously, there was no dedicated method to disable TX while keeping RX enabled, which this patch addresses. Note that the regular flow process in the kernel's bonding driver remains unaffected by this patch. The extension requires explicit opt-in by the user (in order to ensure no disruptions for existing setups) via netlink support using the new bonding parameter coupled_control. The default value for coupled_control is set to 1 so as to preserve existing behaviour.

macvlan: Add netlink attribute for broadcast cutoff

2023-03-29T08:03:32+00:00

Make the broadcast cutoff configurable through netlink. Note that macvlan is weird because there is no central device for us to configure (the lowerdev could be anything). So all the options are duplicated over what could be thousands of child devices. IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN took the approach of taking the maximum of all child device settings. This is unnecessary as we could simply store the option in the port device and take the last child device that gets updated as the value to use. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: David S.

Bonding: add per-port priority for failover re-selection

2022-06-24T10:27:59+00:00

Add per port priority support for bonding active slave re-selection during failover. A higher number means higher priority in selection. The primary slave still has the highest priority. This option also follows the primary_reselect rules. This option could only be configured via netlink. Signed-off-by: Hangbin Liu Acked-by: Jonathan Toppins Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
