Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-nextgrafted
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
"Core:
- Add dedicated kmem_cache for typical/small skb->head, avoid having
to access struct page at kfree time, and improve memory use.
- Introduce sysctl to set default RPS configuration for new netdevs.
- Define Netlink protocol specification format which can be used to
describe messages used by each family and auto-generate parsers.
Add tools for generating kernel data structures and uAPI headers.
- Expose all net/core sysctls inside netns.
- Remove 4s sleep in netpoll if carrier is instantly detected on
boot.
- Add configurable limit of MDB entries per port, and port-vlan.
- Continue populating drop reasons throughout the stack.
- Retire a handful of legacy Qdiscs and classifiers.
Protocols:
- Support IPv4 big TCP (TSO frames larger than 64kB).
- Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option, to control local port range
on socket by socket basis.
- Track and report in procfs number of MPTCP sockets used.
- Support mixing IPv4 and IPv6 flows in the in-kernel MPTCP path
manager.
- IPv6: don't check net.ipv6.route.max_size and rely on garbage
collection to free memory (similarly to IPv4).
- Support Penultimate Segment Pop (PSP) flavor in SRv6 (RFC8986).
- ICMP: add per-rate limit counters.
- Add support for user scanning requests in ieee802154.
- Remove static WEP support.
- Support minimal Wi-Fi 7 Extremely High Throughput (EHT) rate
reporting.
- WiFi 7 EHT channel puncturing support (client & AP).
BPF:
- Add a rbtree data structure following the "next-gen data structure"
precedent set by recently added linked list, that is, by using
kfunc + kptr instead of adding a new BPF map type.
- Expose XDP hints via kfuncs with initial support for RX hash and
timestamp metadata.
- Add BPF_F_NO_TUNNEL_KEY extension to bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key to
better support decap on GRE tunnel devices not operating in collect
metadata.
- Improve x86 JIT's codegen for PROBE_MEM runtime error checks.
- Remove the need for trace_printk_lock for bpf_trace_printk and
bpf_trace_vprintk helpers.
- Extend libbpf's bpf_tracing.h support for tracing arguments of
kprobes/uprobes and syscall as a special case.
- Significantly reduce the search time for module symbols by
livepatch and BPF.
- Enable cpumasks to be used as kptrs, which is useful for tracing
programs tracking which tasks end up running on which CPUs in
different time intervals.
- Add support for BPF trampoline on s390x and riscv64.
- Add capability to export the XDP features supported by the NIC.
- Add __bpf_kfunc tag for marking kernel functions as kfuncs.
- Add cgroup.memory=nobpf kernel parameter option to disable BPF
memory accounting for container environments.
Netfilter:
- Remove the CLUSTERIP target. It has been marked as obsolete for
years, and we still have WARN splats wrt races of the out-of-band
/proc interface installed by this target.
- Add 'destroy' commands to nf_tables. They are identical to the
existing 'delete' commands, but do not return an error if the
referenced object (set, chain, rule...) did not exist.
Driver API:
- Improve cpumask_local_spread() locality to help NICs set the right
IRQ affinity on AMD platforms.
- Separate C22 and C45 MDIO bus transactions more clearly.
- Introduce new DCB table to control DSCP rewrite on egress.
- Support configuration of Physical Layer Collision Avoidance (PLCA)
Reconciliation Sublayer (RS) (802.3cg-2019). Modern version of
shared medium Ethernet.
- Support for MAC Merge layer (IEEE 802.3-2018 clause 99). Allowing
preemption of low priority frames by high priority frames.
- Add support for controlling MACSec offload using netlink SET.
- Rework devlink instance refcounts to allow registration and
de-registration under the instance lock. Split the code into
multiple files, drop some of the unnecessarily granular locks and
factor out common parts of netlink operation handling.
- Add TX frame aggregation parameters (for USB drivers).
- Add a new attr TCA_EXT_WARN_MSG to report TC (offload) warning
messages with notifications for debug.
- Allow offloading of UDP NEW connections via act_ct.
- Add support for per action HW stats in TC.
- Support hardware miss to TC action (continue processing in SW from
a specific point in the action chain).
- Warn if old Wireless Extension user space interface is used with
modern cfg80211/mac80211 drivers. Do not support Wireless
Extensions for Wi-Fi 7 devices at all. Everyone should switch to
using nl80211 interface instead.
- Improve the CAN bit timing configuration. Use extack to return
error messages directly to user space, update the SJW handling,
including the definition of a new default value that will benefit
CAN-FD controllers, by increasing their oscillator tolerance.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +=============== +Getting Started +=============== + +This document briefly describes how you can use DAMON by demonstrating its +default user space tool. Please note that this document describes only a part +of its features for brevity. Please refer to the usage `doc +<https://github.com/awslabs/damo/blob/next/USAGE.md>`_ of the tool for more +details. + + +Prerequisites +============= + +Kernel +------ + +You should first ensure your system is running on a kernel built with +``CONFIG_DAMON_*=y``. + + +User Space Tool +--------------- + +For the demonstration, we will use the default user space tool for DAMON, +called DAMON Operator (DAMO). It is available at +https://github.com/awslabs/damo. The examples below assume that ``damo`` is on +your ``$PATH``. It's not mandatory, though. + +Because DAMO is using the sysfs interface (refer to :doc:`usage` for the +detail) of DAMON, you should ensure :doc:`sysfs </filesystems/sysfs>` is +mounted. + + +Recording Data Access Patterns +============================== + +The commands below record the memory access patterns of a program and save the +monitoring results to a file. :: + + $ git clone https://github.com/sjp38/masim + $ cd masim; make; ./masim ./configs/zigzag.cfg & + $ sudo damo record -o damon.data $(pidof masim) + +The first two lines of the commands download an artificial memory access +generator program and run it in the background. The generator will repeatedly +access two 100 MiB sized memory regions one by one. You can substitute this +with your real workload. The last line asks ``damo`` to record the access +pattern in the ``damon.data`` file. + + +Visualizing Recorded Patterns +============================= + +You can visualize the pattern in a heatmap, showing which memory region +(x-axis) got accessed when (y-axis) and how frequently (number).:: + + $ sudo damo report heats --heatmap stdout + 22222222222222222222222222222222222222211111111111111111111111111111111111111100 + 44444444444444444444444444444444444444434444444444444444444444444444444444443200 + 44444444444444444444444444444444444444433444444444444444444444444444444444444200 + 33333333333333333333333333333333333333344555555555555555555555555555555555555200 + 33333333333333333333333333333333333344444444444444444444444444444444444444444200 + 22222222222222222222222222222222222223355555555555555555555555555555555555555200 + 00000000000000000000000000000000000000288888888888888888888888888888888888888400 + 00000000000000000000000000000000000000288888888888888888888888888888888888888400 + 33333333333333333333333333333333333333355555555555555555555555555555555555555200 + 88888888888888888888888888888888888888600000000000000000000000000000000000000000 + 88888888888888888888888888888888888888600000000000000000000000000000000000000000 + 33333333333333333333333333333333333333444444444444444444444444444444444444443200 + 00000000000000000000000000000000000000288888888888888888888888888888888888888400 + [...] + # access_frequency: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 + # x-axis: space (139728247021568-139728453431248: 196.848 MiB) + # y-axis: time (15256597248362-15326899978162: 1 m 10.303 s) + # resolution: 80x40 (2.461 MiB and 1.758 s for each character) + +You can also visualize the distribution of the working set size, sorted by the +size.:: + + $ sudo damo report wss --range 0 101 10 + # <percentile> <wss> + # target_id 18446632103789443072 + # avr: 107.708 MiB + 0 0 B | | + 10 95.328 MiB |**************************** | + 20 95.332 MiB |**************************** | + 30 95.340 MiB |**************************** | + 40 95.387 MiB |**************************** | + 50 95.387 MiB |**************************** | + 60 95.398 MiB |**************************** | + 70 95.398 MiB |**************************** | + 80 95.504 MiB |**************************** | + 90 190.703 MiB |********************************************************* | + 100 196.875 MiB |***********************************************************| + +Using ``--sortby`` option with the above command, you can show how the working +set size has chronologically changed.:: + + $ sudo damo report wss --range 0 101 10 --sortby time + # <percentile> <wss> + # target_id 18446632103789443072 + # avr: 107.708 MiB + 0 3.051 MiB | | + 10 190.703 MiB |***********************************************************| + 20 95.336 MiB |***************************** | + 30 95.328 MiB |***************************** | + 40 95.387 MiB |***************************** | + 50 95.332 MiB |***************************** | + 60 95.320 MiB |***************************** | + 70 95.398 MiB |***************************** | + 80 95.398 MiB |***************************** | + 90 95.340 MiB |***************************** | + 100 95.398 MiB |***************************** | + + +Data Access Pattern Aware Memory Management +=========================================== + +Below three commands make every memory region of size >=4K that doesn't +accessed for >=60 seconds in your workload to be swapped out. :: + + $ echo "#min-size max-size min-acc max-acc min-age max-age action" > test_scheme + $ echo "4K max 0 0 60s max pageout" >> test_scheme + $ damo schemes -c test_scheme <pid of your workload> |
