2019-07-04net/mlx5: Added devlink info callbackShay Agroskin1-0/+19
The callback is invoked using 'devlink dev info <pci>' command and returns the running and pending firmware version of the HCA and the name of the kernel driver. If there is a pending firmware version (a new version is burned but the HCA still runs with the previous) it is returned as the stored firmware version. Otherwise, the running version is returned for this field.

Let me know if you run into any issues. Anyway, the main changes are: 1) Long-awaited AF_XDP support for mlx5e driver, from Maxim. 2) Addition of two new per-cgroup BPF hooks for getsockopt and setsockopt along with a new sockopt program type which allows more fine-grained pass/reject settings for containers. Also add a sock_ops callback that can be selectively enabled on a per-socket basis and is executed for every RTT to help tracking TCP statistics, both features from Stanislav. 3) Follow-up fix from loops in precision tracking which was not propagating precision marks and as a result verifier assumed that some branches were not taken and therefore wrongly removed as dead code, from Alexei. 4) Fix BPF cgroup release synchronization race which could lead to a double-free if a leaf's cgroup_bpf object is released and a new BPF program is attached to the one of ancestor cgroups in parallel, from Roman. 5) Support for bulking XDP_TX on veth devices which improves performance in some cases by around 9%, from Toshiaki. 6) Allow for lookups into BPF devmap and improve feedback when calling into bpf_redirect_map() as lookup is now performed right away in the helper itself, from Toke. 7) Add support for fq's Earliest Departure Time to the Host Bandwidth Manager (HBM) sample BPF program, from Lawrence. 8) Various cleanups and minor fixes all over the place from many others. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2019-06-15tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctlEric Dumazet1-0/+8
Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or SYN/ACK messages. This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu overhead. Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40 bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload. In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value to a saner value. We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility reasons. Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value in commit c39508d6f118 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.") from 64 to 88. We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

It follows symptoms of fw error such as fw syndrome by triggering fw core dump and storing it and any other fw trace into the dump buffer. The fw reporter diagnose command can be triggered any time by the user to check current fw status. 4.2) fw_fatal repoter: The fw_fatal reporter implements dump and recover callbacks. It follows fatal errors indications by CR-space dump and recover flow. The CR-space dump uses vsc interface which is valid even if the FW command interface is not functional, which is the case in most FW fatal errors. The CR-space dump is stored as a memory region snapshot to ease read by address. The recover function runs recover flow which reloads the driver and triggers fw reset if needed. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2019-06-14ipv4: Support multipath hashing on inner IP pkts for GRE tunnelStephen Suryaputra1-0/+1
Multipath hash policy value of 0 isn't distributing since the outer IP dest and src aren't varied eventhough the inner ones are. Since the flow is on the inner ones in the case of tunneled traffic, hashing on them is desired. This is done mainly for IP over GRE, hence only tested for that. But anything else supported by flow dissection should work. v2: Use skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys() directly so that other tunneling can be supported through flow dissection (per Nikolay Aleksandrov). v3: Remove accidental inclusion of ports in the hash keys and clarify the documentation (Nikolay Alexandrov).

2019-06-11net/tls: add kernel-driven resync mechanism for TXJakub Kicinski1-1/+34
TLS offload drivers keep track of TCP seq numbers to make sure the packets are fed into the HW in order. When packets get dropped on the way through the stack, the driver will get out of sync and have to use fallback encryption, but unless TCP seq number is resynced it will never match the packets correctly (or even worse - use incorrect record sequence number after TCP seq wraps). Existing drivers (mlx5) feed the entire record on every out-of-order event, allowing FW/HW to always be in sync. This patch adds an alternative, more akin to the RX resync. When driver sees a frame which is past its expected sequence number the stream must have gotten out of order (if the sequence number is smaller than expected its likely a retransmission which doesn't require resync). Driver will ask the stack to perform TX sync before it submits the next full record, and fall back to software crypto until stack has performed the sync.

2019-06-11net/tls: add kernel-driven TLS RX resyncJakub Kicinski1-0/+19
TLS offload device may lose sync with the TCP stream if packets arrive out of order. Drivers can currently request a resync at a specific TCP sequence number. When a record is found starting at that sequence number kernel will inform the device of the corresponding record number. This requires the device to constantly scan the stream for a known pattern (constant bytes of the header) after sync is lost. This patch adds an alternative approach which is entirely under the control of the kernel. Kernel tracks records it had to fully decrypt, even though TLS socket is in TLS_HW mode. If multiple records did not have any decrypted parts - it's a pretty strong indication that the device is out of sync. We choose the min number of fully encrypted records to be 2, which should hopefully be more than will get retransmitted at a time. After kernel decides the device is out of sync it schedules a resync request. If the TCP socket is empty the resync gets performed immediately. If socket is not empty we leave the record parser to resync when next record comes. Before resync in message parser we peek at the TCP socket and don't attempt the sync if the socket already has some of the next record queued. On resync failure (encrypted data continues to flow in) we retry with exponential backoff, up to once every 128 records (with a 16k record thats at most once every 2M of data).

2019-05-29net: phylink: Add struct phylink_config to PHYLINK APIIoana Ciornei1-1/+4
The phylink_config structure will encapsulate a pointer to a struct device and the operation type requested for this instance of PHYLINK. This patch does not make any functional changes, it just transitions the PHYLINK internals and all its users to the new API. A pointer to a phylink_config structure will be passed to phylink_create() instead of the net_device directly. Also, the same phylink_config pointer will be passed back to all phylink_mac_ops callbacks instead of the net_device. Using this mechanism, a PHYLINK user can get the original net_device using a structure such as 'to_net_dev(config->dev)' or directly the structure containing the phylink_config using a container_of call. At the moment, only the PHYLINK_NETDEV is defined as a valid operation type for PHYLINK. In this mode, a valid reference to a struct device linked to the original net_device should be passed to PHYLINK through the phylink_config structure. This API changes is mainly driven by the necessity of adding a new operation type in PHYLINK that disconnects the phy_device from the net_device and also works when the net_device is lacking.

2019-05-16rxrpc: Allow the kernel to mark a call as being non-interruptibleDavid Howells1-1/+10
Allow kernel services using AF_RXRPC to indicate that a call should be non-interruptible. This allows kafs to make things like lock-extension and writeback data storage calls non-interruptible. If this is set, signals will be ignored for operations on that call where possible - such as waiting to get a call channel on an rxrpc connection. It doesn't prevent UDP sendmsg from being interrupted, but that will be handled by packet retransmission. rxrpc_kernel_recv_data() isn't affected by this since that never waits, preferring instead to return -EAGAIN and leave the waiting to the caller. Userspace initiated calls can't be set to be uninterruptible at this time. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

Steffen Klassert says: ==================== pull request (net): ipsec 2019-04-30 1) Fix an out-of-bound array accesses in __xfrm_policy_unlink. From YueHaibing. 2) Reset the secpath on failure in the ESP GRO handlers to avoid dereferencing an invalid pointer on error. From Myungho Jung. 3) Add and revert a patch that tried to add rcu annotations to netns_xfrm. From Su Yanjun. 4) Wait for rcu callbacks before freeing xfrm6_tunnel_spi_kmem. From Su Yanjun. 5) Fix forgotten vti4 ipip tunnel deregistration. From Jeremy Sowden: 6) Remove some duplicated log messages in vti4. From Jeremy Sowden. 7) Don't use IPSEC_PROTO_ANY when flushing states because this will flush only IPsec portocol speciffic states. IPPROTO_ROUTING states may remain in the lists when doing net exit. Fix this by replacing IPSEC_PROTO_ANY with zero. From Cong Wang. 8) Add length check for UDP encapsulation to fix "Oversized IP packet" warnings on receive side. From Sabrina Dubroca. 9) Fix xfrm interface lookup when the interface is associated to a vrf layer 3 master device. From Martin Willi. 10) Reload header pointers after pskb_may_pull() in _decode_session4(), otherwise we may read from uninitialized memory. 11) Update the documentation about xfrm[46]_gc_thresh, it is not used anymore after the flowcache removal. From Nicolas Dichtel. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
