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>

The main changes are: 1) Add BPF JIT support for 32-bit ARCv2 processors, from Shahab Vahedi. 2) Add BPF range computation improvements to the verifier in particular around XOR and OR operators, refactoring of checks for range computation and relaxing MUL range computation so that src_reg can also be an unknown scalar, from Cupertino Miranda. 3) Add support to attach kprobe BPF programs through kprobe_multi link in a session mode, meaning, a BPF program is attached to both function entry and return, the entry program can decide if the return program gets executed and the entry program can share u64 cookie value with return program. Session mode is a common use-case for tetragon and bpftrace, from Jiri Olsa. 4) Fix a potential overflow in libbpf's ring__consume_n() and improve libbpf as well as BPF selftest's struct_ops handling, from Andrii Nakryiko. 5) Improvements to BPF selftests in context of BPF gcc backend, from Jose E.

2024-05-13ARC: Add eBPF JIT supportShahab Vahedi1-2/+2
This will add eBPF JIT support to the 32-bit ARCv2 processors. The implementation is qualified by running the BPF tests on a Synopsys HSDK board with "ARC HS38 v2.1c at 500 MHz" as the 4-core CPU. The test_bpf.ko reports 2-10 fold improvements in execution time of its tests. For instance: test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:0 704 1766 2104 PASS test_bpf: #33 tcpdump port 22 jited:1 120 224 260 PASS test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:0 238 PASS test_bpf: #141 ALU_DIV_X: 4294967295 / 4294967295 = 1 jited:1 23 PASS test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:0 2034681 PASS test_bpf: #776 JMP32_JGE_K: all ... magnitudes jited:1 1020022 PASS Deployment and structure ------------------------ The related codes are added to "arch/arc/net": - bpf_jit.h -- The interface that a back-end translator must provide - bpf_jit_core.c -- Knows how to handle the input eBPF byte stream - bpf_jit_arcv2.c -- The back-end code that knows the translation logic The bpf_int_jit_compile() at the end of bpf_jit_core.c is the entrance to the whole process.

2024-04-19net: pse-pd: Add support for PSE PIsKory Maincent (Dent Project)2-0/+302
The Power Sourcing Equipment Power Interface (PSE PI) plays a pivotal role in the architecture of Power over Ethernet (PoE) systems. It is essentially a blueprint that outlines how one or multiple power sources are connected to the eight-pin modular jack, commonly known as the Ethernet RJ45 port. This connection scheme is crucial for enabling the delivery of power alongside data over Ethernet cables. This patch adds support for getting the PSE controller node through PSE PI device subnode. This supports adds a way to get the PSE PI id from the pse_pi devicetree subnode of a PSE controller node simply by reading the reg property.

2024-04-19ethtool: Expand Ethernet Power Equipment with c33 (PoE) alongside PoDLKory Maincent (Dent Project)3-0/+83
In the current PSE interface for Ethernet Power Equipment, support is limited to PoDL. This patch extends the interface to accommodate the objects specified in IEEE 802.3-2022 145.2 for Power sourcing Equipment (PSE). The following objects are now supported and considered mandatory: - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.1.5 aPSEPowerDetectionStatus - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.1.2 aPSEAdminState - IEEE 802.3-2022 30.9.1.2.1 aPSEAdminControl To avoid confusion between "PoDL PSE" and "PoE PSE", which have similar names but distinct values, we have followed the suggestion of Oleksij Rempel and Andrew Lunn to maintain separate naming schemes for each, using c33 (clause 33) prefix for "PoE PSE".

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Large effort by Eric to lower rtnl_lock pressure and remove locks: - Make commonly used parts of rtnetlink (address, route dumps etc) lockless, protected by RCU instead of rtnl_lock. - Add a netns exit callback which already holds rtnl_lock, allowing netns exit to take rtnl_lock once in the core instead of once for each driver / callback. - Remove locks / serialization in the socket diag interface. - Remove 6 calls to synchronize_rcu() while holding rtnl_lock. - Remove the dev_base_lock, depend on RCU where necessary. - Support busy polling on a per-epoll context basis. Poll length and budget parameters can be set independently of system defaults. - Introduce struct net_hotdata, to make sure read-mostly global config variables fit in as few cache lines as possible. - Add optional per-nexthop statistics to ease monitoring / debug of ECMP imbalance problems. - Support TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT in MPTCP. - Ensure that IPv6 temporary addresses' preferred lifetimes are long enough, compared to other configured lifetimes, and at least 2 sec. - Support forwarding of ICMP Error messages in IPSec, per RFC 4301. - Add support for the independent control state machine for bonding per IEEE 802.1AX-2008 5.4.15 in addition to the existing coupled control state machine. - Add "network ID" to MCTP socket APIs to support hosts with multiple disjoint MCTP networks. - Re-use the mono_delivery_time skbuff bit for packets which user space wants to be sent at a specified time. Maintain the timing information while traversing veth links, bridge etc. - Take advantage of MSG_SPLICE_PAGES for RxRPC DATA and ACK packets. - Simplify many places iterating over netdevs by using an xarray instead of a hash table walk (hash table remains in place, for use on fastpaths). - Speed up scanning for expired routes by keeping a dedicated list. - Speed up "generic" XDP by trying harder to avoid large allocations. - Support attaching arbitrary metadata to netconsole messages. Things we sprinkled into general kernel code: - Enforce VM_IOREMAP flag and range in ioremap_page_range and introduce VM_SPARSE kind and vm_area_[un]map_pages (used by bpf_arena). - Rework selftest harness to enable the use of the full range of ksft exit code (pass, fail, skip, xfail, xpass). Netfilter: - Allow userspace to define a table that is exclusively owned by a daemon (via netlink socket aliveness) without auto-removing this table when the userspace program exits. Such table gets marked as orphaned and a restarting management daemon can re-attach/regain ownership. - Speed up element insertions to nftables' concatenated-ranges set type. Compact a few related data structures. BPF: - Add BPF token support for delegating a subset of BPF subsystem functionality from privileged system-wide daemons such as systemd through special mount options for userns-bound BPF fs to a trusted & unprivileged application. - Introduce bpf_arena which is sparse shared memory region between BPF program and user space where structures inside the arena can have pointers to other areas of the arena, and pointers work seamlessly for both user-space programs and BPF programs. - Introduce may_goto instruction that is a contract between the verifier and the program. The verifier allows the program to loop assuming it's behaving well, but reserves the right to terminate it. - Extend the BPF verifier to enable static subprog calls in spin lock critical sections. - Support registration of struct_ops types from modules which helps projects like fuse-bpf that seeks to implement a new struct_ops type. - Add support for retrieval of cookies for perf/kprobe multi links. - Support arbitrary TCP SYN cookie generation / validation in the TC layer with BPF to allow creating SYN flood handling in BPF firewalls. - Add code generation to inline the bpf_kptr_xchg() helper which improves performance when stashing/popping the allocated BPF objects. Wireless: - Add SPP (signaling and payload protected) AMSDU support. - Support wider bandwidth OFDMA, as required for EHT operation. Driver API: - Major overhaul of the Energy Efficient Ethernet internals to support new link modes (2.5GE, 5GE), share more code between drivers (especially those using phylib), and encourage more uniform behavior. Convert and clean up drivers. - Define an API for querying per netdev queue statistics from drivers. - IPSec: account in global stats for fully offloaded sessions. - Create a concept of Ethernet PHY Packages at the Device Tree level, to allow parameterizing the existing PHY package code. - Enable Rx hashing (RSS) on GTP protocol fields. Misc: - Improvements and refactoring all over networking selftests. - Create uniform module aliases for TC classifiers, actions, and packet schedulers to simplify creating modprobe policies. - Address all missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings in networking. - Extend the Netlink descriptions in YAML to cover message encapsulation or "Netlink polymorphism", where interpretation of nested attributes depends on link type, classifier type or some other "class type".

Passing traffic through different devices belonging to different NUMA sockets saves cross-numa traffic and allows apps running on the same netdev from different numas to still feel a sense of proximity to the device and achieve improved performance. We achieve this by grouping PFs together, and creating the netdev only once all group members are probed. Symmetrically, we destroy the netdev once any of the PFs is removed. The channels are distributed between all devices, a proper configuration would utilize the correct close numa when working on a certain app/cpu. We pick one device to be a primary (leader), and it fills a special role. The other devices (secondaries) are disconnected from the network in the chip level (set to silent mode). All RX/TX traffic is steered through the primary to/from the secondaries. Currently, we limit the support to PFs only, and up to two devices (sockets). * tag 'mlx5-socket-direct-v3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/saeed/linux: Documentation: networking: Add description for multi-pf netdev net/mlx5: Enable SD feature net/mlx5e: Block TLS device offload on combined SD netdev net/mlx5e: Support per-mdev queue counter net/mlx5e: Support cross-vhca RSS net/mlx5e: Let channels be SD-aware net/mlx5e: Create EN core HW resources for all secondary devices net/mlx5e: Create single netdev per SD group net/mlx5: SD, Add debugfs net/mlx5: SD, Add informative prints in kernel log net/mlx5: SD, Implement steering for primary and secondaries net/mlx5: SD, Implement devcom communication and primary election net/mlx5: SD, Implement basic query and instantiation net/mlx5: SD, Introduce SD lib net/mlx5: Add MPIR bit in mcam_access_reg ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240307084229.500776-1-saeed@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2024-03-08netdev: add per-queue statisticsJakub Kicinski1-0/+15
The ethtool-nl family does a good job exposing various protocol related and IEEE/IETF statistics which used to get dumped under ethtool -S, with creative names. Queue stats don't have a netlink API, yet, and remain a lion's share of ethtool -S output for new drivers. Not only is that bad because the names differ driver to driver but it's also bug-prone. Intuitively drivers try to report only the stats for active queues, but querying ethtool stats involves multiple system calls, and the number of stats is read separately from the stats themselves. Worse still when user space asks for values of the stats, it doesn't inform the kernel how big the buffer is. If number of stats increases in the meantime kernel will overflow user buffer. Add a netlink API for dumping queue stats. Queue information is exposed via the netdev-genl family, so add the stats there. Support per-queue and sum-for-device dumps. Latter will be useful when subsequent patches add more interesting common stats than just bytes and packets. The API does not currently distinguish between HW and SW stats. The expectation is that the source of the stats will either not matter much (good packets) or be obvious (skb alloc errors).

2024-02-15net: ipv6/addrconf: clamp preferred_lft to the minimum requiredAlex Henrie1-1/+1
If the preferred lifetime was less than the minimum required lifetime, ipv6_create_tempaddr would error out without creating any new address. On my machine and network, this error happened immediately with the preferred lifetime set to 5 seconds or less, after a few minutes with the preferred lifetime set to 6 seconds, and not at all with the preferred lifetime set to 7 seconds. During my investigation, I found a Stack Exchange post from another person who seems to have had the same problem: They stopped getting new addresses if they lowered the preferred lifetime below 3 seconds, and they didn't really know why. The preferred lifetime is a preference, not a hard requirement. The kernel does not strictly forbid new connections on a deprecated address, nor does it guarantee that the address will be disposed of the instant its total valid lifetime expires. So rather than disable IPv6 privacy extensions altogether if the minimum required lifetime swells above the preferred lifetime, it is more in keeping with the user's intent to increase the temporary address's lifetime to the minimum necessary for the current network conditions. With these fixes, setting the preferred lifetime to 5 or 6 seconds "just works" because the extra fraction of a second is practically unnoticeable. It's even possible to reduce the time before deprecation to 1 or 2 seconds by setting /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/regen_min_advance and /proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/*/dad_transmits to 0. I realize that that is a pretty niche use case, but I know at least one person who would gladly sacrifice performance and convenience to be sure that they are getting the maximum possible level of privacy.

2024-02-15net: ipv6/addrconf: introduce a regen_min_advance sysctlAlex Henrie1-0/+10
In RFC 8981, REGEN_ADVANCE cannot be less than 2 seconds, and the RFC does not permit the creation of temporary addresses with lifetimes shorter than that: > When processing a Router Advertisement with a > Prefix Information option carrying a prefix for the purposes of > address autoconfiguration (i.e., the A bit is set), the host MUST > perform the following steps: > 5. A temporary address is created only if this calculated preferred > lifetime is greater than REGEN_ADVANCE time units. However, some users want to change their IPv6 address as frequently as possible regardless of the RFC's arbitrary minimum lifetime. For the benefit of those users, add a regen_min_advance sysctl parameter that can be set to below or above 2 seconds.

2024-02-15net: ipv6/addrconf: ensure that regen_advance is at least 2 secondsAlex Henrie1-2/+2
RFC 8981 defines REGEN_ADVANCE as follows: REGEN_ADVANCE = 2 + (TEMP_IDGEN_RETRIES * DupAddrDetectTransmits * RetransTimer / 1000) Thus, allowing it to be less than 2 seconds is technically a protocol violation.
