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 + +============================= +Running tests with kunit_tool +============================= + +We can either run KUnit tests using kunit_tool or can run tests +manually, and then use kunit_tool to parse the results. To run tests +manually, see: Documentation/dev-tools/kunit/run_manual.rst. +As long as we can build the kernel, we can run KUnit. + +kunit_tool is a Python script which configures and builds a kernel, runs +tests, and formats the test results. + +Run command: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run + +We should see the following: + +.. code-block:: + + Configuring KUnit Kernel ... + Building KUnit kernel... + Starting KUnit kernel... + +We may want to use the following options: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --timeout=30 --jobs=`nproc --all` + +- ``--timeout`` sets a maximum amount of time for tests to run. +- ``--jobs`` sets the number of threads to build the kernel. + +kunit_tool will generate a ``.kunitconfig`` with a default +configuration, if no other ``.kunitconfig`` file exists +(in the build directory). In addition, it verifies that the +generated ``.config`` file contains the ``CONFIG`` options in the +``.kunitconfig``. +It is also possible to pass a separate ``.kunitconfig`` fragment to +kunit_tool. This is useful if we have several different groups of +tests we want to run independently, or if we want to use pre-defined +test configs for certain subsystems. + +To use a different ``.kunitconfig`` file (such as one +provided to test a particular subsystem), pass it as an option: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=fs/ext4/.kunitconfig + +To view kunit_tool flags (optional command-line arguments), run: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --help + +Creating a ``.kunitconfig`` file +================================ + +If we want to run a specific set of tests (rather than those listed +in the KUnit ``defconfig``), we can provide Kconfig options in the +``.kunitconfig`` file. For default .kunitconfig, see: +https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/testing/kunit/configs/default.config. +A ``.kunitconfig`` is a ``minconfig`` (a .config +generated by running ``make savedefconfig``), used for running a +specific set of tests. This file contains the regular Kernel configs +with specific test targets. The ``.kunitconfig`` also +contains any other config options required by the tests (For example: +dependencies for features under tests, configs that enable/disable +certain code blocks, arch configs and so on). + +To create a ``.kunitconfig``, using the KUnit ``defconfig``: + +.. code-block:: + + cd $PATH_TO_LINUX_REPO + cp tools/testing/kunit/configs/default.config .kunit/.kunitconfig + +We can then add any other Kconfig options. For example: + +.. code-block:: + + CONFIG_LIST_KUNIT_TEST=y + +kunit_tool ensures that all config options in ``.kunitconfig`` are +set in the kernel ``.config`` before running the tests. It warns if we +have not included the options dependencies. + +.. note:: Removing something from the ``.kunitconfig`` will + not rebuild the ``.config file``. The configuration is only + updated if the ``.kunitconfig`` is not a subset of ``.config``. + This means that we can use other tools + (For example: ``make menuconfig``) to adjust other config options. + The build dir needs to be set for ``make menuconfig`` to + work, therefore by default use ``make O=.kunit menuconfig``. + +Configuring, building, and running tests +======================================== + +If we want to make manual changes to the KUnit build process, we +can run part of the KUnit build process independently. +When running kunit_tool, from a ``.kunitconfig``, we can generate a +``.config`` by using the ``config`` argument: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py config + +To build a KUnit kernel from the current ``.config``, we can use the +``build`` argument: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py build + +If we already have built UML kernel with built-in KUnit tests, we +can run the kernel, and display the test results with the ``exec`` +argument: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec + +The ``run`` command discussed in section: **Running tests with kunit_tool**, +is equivalent to running the above three commands in sequence. + +Parsing test results +==================== + +KUnit tests output displays results in TAP (Test Anything Protocol) +format. When running tests, kunit_tool parses this output and prints +a summary. To see the raw test results in TAP format, we can pass the +``--raw_output`` argument: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --raw_output + +If we have KUnit results in the raw TAP format, we can parse them and +print the human-readable summary with the ``parse`` command for +kunit_tool. This accepts a filename for an argument, or will read from +standard input. + +.. code-block:: bash + + # Reading from a file + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py parse /var/log/dmesg + # Reading from stdin + dmesg | ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py parse + +Filtering tests +=============== + +By passing a bash style glob filter to the ``exec`` or ``run`` +commands, we can run a subset of the tests built into a kernel . For +example: if we only want to run KUnit resource tests, use: + +.. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run 'kunit-resource*' + +This uses the standard glob format with wildcard characters. + +.. _kunit-on-qemu: + +Running tests on QEMU +===================== + +kunit_tool supports running tests on qemu as well as +via UML. To run tests on qemu, by default it requires two flags: + +- ``--arch``: Selects a configs collection (Kconfig, qemu config options + and so on), that allow KUnit tests to be run on the specified + architecture in a minimal way. The architecture argument is same as + the option name passed to the ``ARCH`` variable used by Kbuild. + Not all architectures currently support this flag, but we can use + ``--qemu_config`` to handle it. If ``um`` is passed (or this flag + is ignored), the tests will run via UML. Non-UML architectures, + for example: i386, x86_64, arm and so on; run on qemu. + +- ``--cross_compile``: Specifies the Kbuild toolchain. It passes the + same argument as passed to the ``CROSS_COMPILE`` variable used by + Kbuild. As a reminder, this will be the prefix for the toolchain + binaries such as GCC. For example: + + - ``sparc64-linux-gnu`` if we have the sparc toolchain installed on + our system. + + - ``$HOME/toolchains/microblaze/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/microblaze-linux/bin/microblaze-linux`` + if we have downloaded the microblaze toolchain from the 0-day + website to a directory in our home directory called toolchains. + +This means that for most architectures, running under qemu is as simple as: + +.. code-block:: bash + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --arch=x86_64 + +When cross-compiling, we'll likely need to specify a different toolchain, for +example: + +.. code-block:: bash + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \ + --arch=s390 \ + --cross_compile=s390x-linux-gnu- + +If we want to run KUnit tests on an architecture not supported by +the ``--arch`` flag, or want to run KUnit tests on qemu using a +non-default configuration; then we can write our own``QemuConfig``. +These ``QemuConfigs`` are written in Python. They have an import line +``from..qemu_config import QemuArchParams`` at the top of the file. +The file must contain a variable called ``QEMU_ARCH`` that has an +instance of ``QemuArchParams`` assigned to it. See example in: +``tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/x86_64.py``. + +Once we have a ``QemuConfig``, we can pass it into kunit_tool, +using the ``--qemu_config`` flag. When used, this flag replaces the +``--arch`` flag. For example: using +``tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/x86_64.py``, the invocation appear +as + +.. code-block:: bash + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \ + --timeout=60 \ + --jobs=12 \ + --qemu_config=./tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/x86_64.py + +Running command-line arguments +============================== + +kunit_tool has a number of other command-line arguments which can +be useful for our test environment. Below are the most commonly used +command line arguments: + +- ``--help``: Lists all available options. To list common options, + place ``--help`` before the command. To list options specific to that + command, place ``--help`` after the command. + + .. note:: Different commands (``config``, ``build``, ``run``, etc) + have different supported options. +- ``--build_dir``: Specifies kunit_tool build directory. It includes + the ``.kunitconfig``, ``.config`` files and compiled kernel. + +- ``--make_options``: Specifies additional options to pass to make, when + compiling a kernel (using ``build`` or ``run`` commands). For example: + to enable compiler warnings, we can pass ``--make_options W=1``. + +- ``--alltests``: Enable a predefined set of options in order to build + as many tests as possible. + + .. note:: The list of enabled options can be found in + ``tools/testing/kunit/configs/all_tests.config``. + + If you only want to enable all tests with otherwise satisfied + dependencies, instead add ``CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y`` to your + ``.kunitconfig``. + +- ``--kunitconfig``: Specifies the path or the directory of the ``.kunitconfig`` + file. For example: + + - ``lib/kunit/.kunitconfig`` can be the path of the file. + + - ``lib/kunit`` can be the directory in which the file is located. + + This file is used to build and run with a predefined set of tests + and their dependencies. For example, to run tests for a given subsystem. + +- ``--kconfig_add``: Specifies additional configuration options to be + appended to the ``.kunitconfig`` file. For example: + + .. code-block:: + + ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kconfig_add CONFIG_KASAN=y + +- ``--arch``: Runs tests on the specified architecture. The architecture + argument is same as the Kbuild ARCH environment variable. + For example, i386, x86_64, arm, um, etc. Non-UML architectures run on qemu. + Default is `um`. + +- ``--cross_compile``: Specifies the Kbuild toolchain. It passes the + same argument as passed to the ``CROSS_COMPILE`` variable used by + Kbuild. This will be the prefix for the toolchain + binaries such as GCC. For example: + + - ``sparc64-linux-gnu-`` if we have the sparc toolchain installed on + our system. + + - ``$HOME/toolchains/microblaze/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/microblaze-linux/bin/microblaze-linux`` + if we have downloaded the microblaze toolchain from the 0-day + website to a specified path in our home directory called toolchains. + +- ``--qemu_config``: Specifies the path to a file containing a + custom qemu architecture definition. This should be a python file + containing a `QemuArchParams` object. + +- ``--qemu_args``: Specifies additional qemu arguments, for example, ``-smp 8``. + +- ``--jobs``: Specifies the number of jobs (commands) to run simultaneously. + By default, this is set to the number of cores on your system. + +- ``--timeout``: Specifies the maximum number of seconds allowed for all tests to run. + This does not include the time taken to build the tests. + +- ``--kernel_args``: Specifies additional kernel command-line arguments. May be repeated. + +- ``--run_isolated``: If set, boots the kernel for each individual suite/test. + This is useful for debugging a non-hermetic test, one that + might pass/fail based on what ran before it. + +- ``--raw_output``: If set, generates unformatted output from kernel. Possible options are: + + - ``all``: To view the full kernel output, use ``--raw_output=all``. + + - ``kunit``: This is the default option and filters to KUnit output. Use ``--raw_output`` or ``--raw_output=kunit``. + +- ``--json``: If set, stores the test results in a JSON format and prints to `stdout` or + saves to a file if a filename is specified. |
