2024-08-11ethtool: rss: echo the context number backJakub Kicinski1-0/+1
[ Upstream commit f96aae91b0d260f682e630e092ef70a05a718a43 ] The response to a GET request in Netlink should fully identify the queried object. RSS_GET accepts context id as an input, so it must echo that attribute back to the response. After (assuming context 1 has been created): $ ./cli.py --spec netlink/specs/ethtool.yaml \ --do rss-get \ --json '{"header": {"dev-index": 2}, "context": 1}' {'context': 1, 'header': {'dev-index': 2, 'dev-name': 'eth0'}, [...] Fixes: 7112a04664bf ("ethtool: add netlink based get rss support") Acked-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Joe Damato <jdamato@fastly.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240724234249.2621109-3-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>

2023-12-14net: ethtool: add support for symmetric-xor RSS hashAhmed Zaki1-1/+5
Symmetric RSS hash functions are beneficial in applications that monitor both Tx and Rx packets of the same flow (IDS, software firewalls, ..etc). Getting all traffic of the same flow on the same RX queue results in higher CPU cache efficiency. A NIC that supports "symmetric-xor" can achieve this RSS hash symmetry by XORing the source and destination fields and pass the values to the RSS hash algorithm. The user may request RSS hash symmetry for a specific algorithm, via: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg> symmetric-xor or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc <hash_alg> The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual via: # ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash <flow_type> s|d|f|n Reviewed-by: Wojciech Drewek <wojciech.drewek@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Ahmed Zaki <ahmed.zaki@intel.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213003321.605376-4-ahmed.zaki@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2023-04-25net: ethtool: coalesce: try to make user settings stick twiceJakub Kicinski1-0/+4
SET_COALESCE may change operation mode and parameters in one call. Changing operation mode may cause the driver to reset the parameter values to what is a reasonable default for new operation mode. Since driver does not know which parameters come from user and which are echoed back from ->get, driver may ignore the parameters when switching operation modes. This used to be inevitable for ioctl() but in netlink we know which parameters are actually specified by the user. We could inform which parameters were set by the user but this would lead to a lot of code duplication in the drivers. Instead try to call the drivers twice if both mode and params are changed. The set method already checks if any params need updating so in case the driver did the right thing the first time around - there will be no second call to it's ->set method (only an extra call to ->get()). For mlx5 for example before this patch we'd see: # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on adaptive-tx on # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \ tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123 Adaptive RX: off TX: off rx-usecs: 3 rx-frames: 32 tx-usecs: 16 tx-frames: 32 [...] After the change: # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx on adaptive-tx on # ethtool -C eth0 adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off \ tx-usecs 123 rx-usecs 123 Adaptive RX: off TX: off rx-usecs: 123 rx-frames: 32 tx-usecs: 123 tx-frames: 32 [...] This only works for netlink, so it's a small discrepancy between netlink and ioctl(). Since we anticipate most users to move to netlink I believe it's worth making their lives easier.

2022-11-08ethtool: linkstate: add a statistic for PHY down eventsJakub Kicinski1-0/+1
The previous attempt to augment carrier_down (see Link) was not met with much enthusiasm so let's do the simple thing of exposing what some devices already maintain. Add a common ethtool statistic for link going down. Currently users have to maintain per-driver mapping to extract the right stat from the vendor-specific ethtool -S stats. carrier_down does not fit the bill because it counts a lot of software related false positives. Add the statistic to the extended link state API to steer vendors towards implementing all of it. Implement for bnxt and all Linux-controlled PHYs. mlx5 and (possibly) enic also have a counter for this but I leave the implementation to their maintainers.

2022-10-04ethtool: add interface to interact with Ethernet Power EquipmentOleksij Rempel1-0/+59
Add interface to support Power Sourcing Equipment. At current step it provides generic way to address all variants of PSE devices as defined in IEEE 802.3-2018 but support only objects specified for IEEE 802.3-2018 104.4 PoDL Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). Currently supported and mandatory objects are: IEEE 802.3-2018 30.15.1.1.3 aPoDLPSEPowerDetectionStatus IEEE 802.3-2018 30.15.1.1.2 aPoDLPSEAdminState IEEE 802.3-2018 30.15.1.2.1 acPoDLPSEAdminControl This is minimal interface needed to control PSE on each separate ethernet port but it provides not all mandatory objects specified in IEEE 802.3-2018. Since "PoDL PSE" and "PSE" have similar names, but some different values I decide to not merge them and keep separate naming schema. This should allow as to be as close to IEEE 802.3 spec as possible and avoid name conflicts in the future. This implementation is connected to PHYs instead of MACs because PSE auto classification can potentially interfere with PHY auto negotiation. So, may be some extra PHY related initialization will be needed.

2022-09-23net: phy: Add support for rate matchingSean Anderson1-0/+2
This adds support for rate matching (also known as rate adaptation) to the phy subsystem. The general idea is that the phy interface runs at one speed, and the MAC throttles the rate at which it sends packets to the link speed. There's a good overview of several techniques for achieving this at [1]. This patch adds support for three: pause-frame based (such as in Aquantia phys), CRS-based (such as in 10PASS-TS and 2BASE-TL), and open-loop-based (such as in 10GBASE-W). This patch makes a few assumptions and a few non assumptions about the types of rate matching available. First, it assumes that different phys may use different forms of rate matching. Second, it assumes that phys can use rate matching for any of their supported link speeds (e.g. if a phy supports 10BASE-T and XGMII, then it can adapt XGMII to 10BASE-T). Third, it does not assume that all interface modes will use the same form of rate matching. Fourth, it does not assume that all phy devices will support rate matching (even if some do). Relaxing or strengthening these (non-)assumptions could result in a different API. For example, if all interface modes were assumed to use the same form of rate matching, then a bitmask of interface modes supportting rate matching would suffice. For some better visibility into the process, the current rate matching mode is exposed as part of the ethtool ksettings. For the moment, only read access is supported. I'm not sure what userspace might want to configure yet (disable it altogether, disable just one mode, specify the mode to use, etc.). For the moment, since only pause-based rate adaptation support is added in the next few commits, rate matching can be disabled altogether by adjusting the advertisement. 802.3 calls this feature "rate adaptation" in clause 49 (10GBASE-R) and "rate matching" in clause 61 (10PASS-TL and 2BASE-TS). Aquantia also calls this feature "rate adaptation". I chose "rate matching" because it is shorter, and because Russell doesn't think "adaptation" is correct in this context.

2022-01-28ethtool: add header/data split indicationJakub Kicinski1-0/+8
For applications running on a mix of platforms it's useful to have a clear indication whether host's NIC supports the geometry requirements of TCP zero-copy. TCP zero-copy Rx requires data to be neatly placed into memory pages. Most NICs can't do that. This patch is adding GET support only, since the NICs I work with either always have the feature enabled or enable it whenever MTU is set to jumbo. In other words I don't need SET. But adding set should be trivial. (The only note on SET is that we will likely want the setting to be "sticky" and use 0 / `unknown` to reset it back to driver default.)

2021-10-07ethtool: Add ability to control transceiver modules' power modeIdo Schimmel1-2/+69
Add a pair of new ethtool messages, 'ETHTOOL_MSG_MODULE_SET' and 'ETHTOOL_MSG_MODULE_GET', that can be used to control transceiver modules parameters and retrieve their status. The first parameter to control is the power mode of the module. It is only relevant for paged memory modules, as flat memory modules always operate in low power mode. When a paged memory module is in low power mode, its power consumption is reduced to the minimum, the management interface towards the host is available and the data path is deactivated. User space can choose to put modules that are not currently in use in low power mode and transition them to high power mode before putting the associated ports administratively up. This is useful for user space that favors reduced power consumption and lower temperatures over reduced link up times. In QSFP-DD modules the transition from low power mode to high power mode can take a few seconds and this transition is only expected to get longer with future / more complex modules. User space can control the power mode of the module via the power mode policy attribute ('ETHTOOL_A_MODULE_POWER_MODE_POLICY'). Possible values: * high: Module is always in high power mode. * auto: Module is transitioned by the host to high power mode when the first port using it is put administratively up and to low power mode when the last port using it is put administratively down. The operational power mode of the module is available to user space via the 'ETHTOOL_A_MODULE_POWER_MODE' attribute. The attribute is not reported to user space when a module is not plugged-in. The user API is designed to be generic enough so that it could be used for modules with different memory maps (e.g., SFF-8636, CMIS). The only implementation of the device driver API in this series is for a MAC driver (mlxsw) where the module is controlled by the device's firmware, but it is designed to be generic enough so that it could also be used by implementations where the module is controlled by the CPU.

2021-08-24ethtool: add two coalesce attributes for CQE modeYufeng Mo1-0/+15
Currently, there are many drivers who support CQE mode configuration, some configure it as a fixed when initialized, some provide an interface to change it by ethtool private flags. In order to make it more generic, add two new 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_TX' and 'ETHTOOL_A_COALESCE_USE_CQE_RX' coalesce attributes, then these parameters can be accessed by ethtool netlink coalesce uAPI. Also add an new structure kernel_ethtool_coalesce, then the new parameter can be added into this struct.

2021-04-16ethtool: add FEC statisticsJakub Kicinski1-0/+21
Similarly to pause statistics add stats for FEC. The IEEE standard mandates two sets of counters: - 30.5.1.1.17 aFECCorrectedBlocks - 30.5.1.1.18 aFECUncorrectableBlocks where block is a block of bits FEC operates on. Each of these counters is defined per lane (PCS instance). Multiple vendors provide number of corrected _bits_ rather than/as well as blocks. This set adds the 2 standard-based block counters and a extra one for corrected bits. Counters are exposed to user space via netlink in new attributes. Each attribute carries an array of u64s, first element is the total count, and the following ones are a per-lane break down. Much like with pause stats the operation will not fail when driver does not implement the get_fec_stats callback (nor can the driver fail the operation by returning an error). If stats can't be reported the relevant attributes will be empty. Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2021-04-01ethtool: support FEC settings over netlinkJakub Kicinski1-2/+60
Add FEC API to netlink. This is not a 1-to-1 conversion. FEC settings already depend on link modes to tell user which modes are supported. Take this further an use link modes for manual configuration. Old struct ethtool_fecparam is still used to talk to the drivers, so we need to translate back and forth. We can revisit the internal API if number of FEC encodings starts to grow. Enforce only one active FEC bit (by using a bit position rather than another mask).

2021-02-04ethtool: Extend link modes settings uAPI with lanesDanielle Ratson1-5/+6
Currently, when auto negotiation is on, the user can advertise all the linkmodes which correspond to a specific speed, but does not have a similar selector for the number of lanes. This is significant when a specific speed can be achieved using different number of lanes. For example, 2x50 or 4x25. Add 'ETHTOOL_A_LINKMODES_LANES' attribute and expand 'struct ethtool_link_settings' with lanes field in order to implement a new lanes-selector that will enable the user to advertise a specific number of lanes as well. When auto negotiation is off, lanes parameter can be forced only if the driver supports it. Add a capability bit in 'struct ethtool_ops' that allows ethtool know if the driver can handle the lanes parameter when auto negotiation is off, so if it does not, an error message will be returned when trying to set lanes. Example: $ ethtool -s swp1 lanes 4 $ ethtool swp1 Settings for swp1: Supported ports: [ FIBRE ] Supported link modes: 1000baseKX/Full 10000baseKR/Full 40000baseCR4/Full 40000baseSR4/Full 40000baseLR4/Full 25000baseCR/Full 25000baseSR/Full 50000baseCR2/Full 100000baseSR4/Full 100000baseCR4/Full Supported pause frame use: Symmetric Receive-only Supports auto-negotiation: Yes Supported FEC modes: Not reported Advertised link modes: 40000baseCR4/Full 40000baseSR4/Full 40000baseLR4/Full 100000baseSR4/Full 100000baseCR4/Full Advertised pause frame use: No Advertised auto-negotiation: Yes Advertised FEC modes: Not reported Speed: Unknown!

2020-09-18ethtool: add and use message type for tunnel info replyMichal Kubecek1-0/+3
Tunnel offload info code uses ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET message type (cmd field in genetlink header) for replies to tunnel info netlink request, i.e. the same value as the request have. This is a problem because we are using two separate enums for userspace to kernel and kernel to userspace message types so that this ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET (28) collides with ETHTOOL_MSG_CABLE_TEST_TDR_NTF which is what message type 28 means for kernel to userspace messages. As the tunnel info request reached mainline in 5.9 merge window, we should still be able to fix the reply message type without breaking backward compatibility.
