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.

SoundWire interface is optimized to integrate audio devices in +mobile or mobile inspired systems. + +SoundWire is a 2-pin multi-drop interface with data and clock line. It +facilitates development of low cost, efficient, high performance systems. +Broad level key features of SoundWire interface include: + + (1) Transporting all of payload data channels, control information, and setup + commands over a single two-pin interface. + + (2) Lower clock frequency, and hence lower power consumption, by use of DDR + (Dual Data Rate) data transmission. + + (3) Clock scaling and optional multiple data lanes to give wide flexibility + in data rate to match system requirements. + + (4) Device status monitoring, including interrupt-style alerts to the Master. + +The SoundWire protocol supports up to eleven Slave interfaces. All the +interfaces share the common Bus containing data and clock line. Each of the +Slaves can support up to 14 Data Ports. 13 Data Ports are dedicated to audio +transport. Data Port0 is dedicated to transport of Bulk control information, +each of the audio Data Ports (1..14) can support up to 8 Channels in +transmit or receiving mode (typically fixed direction but configurable +direction is enabled by the specification). Bandwidth restrictions to +~19.2..24.576Mbits/s don't however allow for 11*13*8 channels to be +transmitted simultaneously. + +Below figure shows an example of connectivity between a SoundWire Master and +two Slave devices. :: + + +---------------+ +---------------+ + | | Clock Signal | | + | Master |-------+-------------------------------| Slave | + | Interface | | Data Signal | Interface 1 | + | |-------|-------+-----------------------| | + +---------------+ | | +---------------+ + | | + | | + | | + +--+-------+--+ + | | + | Slave | + | Interface 2 | + | | + +-------------+ + + +Terminology +=========== + +The MIPI SoundWire specification uses the term 'device' to refer to a Master +or Slave interface, which of course can be confusing. In this summary and +code we use the term interface only to refer to the hardware. We follow the +Linux device model by mapping each Slave interface connected on the bus as a +device managed by a specific driver. The Linux SoundWire subsystem provides +a framework to implement a SoundWire Slave driver with an API allowing +3rd-party vendors to enable implementation-defined functionality while +common setup/configuration tasks are handled by the bus. + +Bus: +Implements SoundWire Linux Bus which handles the SoundWire protocol. +Programs all the MIPI-defined Slave registers. Represents a SoundWire +Master. Multiple instances of Bus may be present in a system. + +Slave: +Registers as SoundWire Slave device (Linux Device). Multiple Slave devices +can register to a Bus instance. + +Slave driver: +Driver controlling the Slave device. MIPI-specified registers are controlled +directly by the Bus (and transmitted through the Master driver/interface). +Any implementation-defined Slave register is controlled by Slave driver. In +practice, it is expected that the Slave driver relies on regmap and does not +request direct register access. + +Programming interfaces (SoundWire Master interface Driver) +========================================================== + +SoundWire Bus supports programming interfaces for the SoundWire Master +implementation and SoundWire Slave devices. All the code uses the "sdw" +prefix commonly used by SoC designers and 3rd party vendors. + +Each of the SoundWire Master interfaces needs to be registered to the Bus. +Bus implements API to read standard Master MIPI properties and also provides +callback in Master ops for Master driver to implement its own functions that +provides capabilities information. DT support is not implemented at this +time but should be trivial to add since capabilities are enabled with the +``device_property_`` API. + +The Master interface along with the Master interface capabilities are +registered based on board file, DT or ACPI. + +Following is the Bus API to register the SoundWire Bus: + +.. code-block:: c + + int sdw_bus_master_add(struct sdw_bus *bus, + struct device *parent, + struct fwnode_handle) + { + sdw_master_device_add(bus, parent, fwnode); + + mutex_init(&bus->lock); + INIT_LIST_HEAD(&bus->slaves); + + /* Check ACPI for Slave devices */ + sdw_acpi_find_slaves(bus); + + /* Check DT for Slave devices */ + sdw_of_find_slaves(bus); + + return 0; + } + +This will initialize sdw_bus object for Master device. "sdw_master_ops" and +"sdw_master_port_ops" callback functions are provided to the Bus. + +"sdw_master_ops" is used by Bus to control the Bus in the hardware specific +way. It includes Bus control functions such as sending the SoundWire +read/write messages on Bus, setting up clock frequency & Stream +Synchronization Point (SSP). The "sdw_master_ops" structure abstracts the +hardware details of the Master from the Bus. + +"sdw_master_port_ops" is used by Bus to setup the Port parameters of the +Master interface Port. Master interface Port register map is not defined by +MIPI specification, so Bus calls the "sdw_master_port_ops" callback +function to do Port operations like "Port Prepare", "Port Transport params +set", "Port enable and disable". The implementation of the Master driver can +then perform hardware-specific configurations. + +Programming interfaces (SoundWire Slave Driver) +=============================================== + +The MIPI specification requires each Slave interface to expose a unique +48-bit identifier, stored in 6 read-only dev_id registers. This dev_id +identifier contains vendor and part information, as well as a field enabling +to differentiate between identical components. An additional class field is +currently unused. Slave driver is written for a specific vendor and part +identifier, Bus enumerates the Slave device based on these two ids. +Slave device and driver match is done based on these two ids . Probe +of the Slave driver is called by Bus on successful match between device and +driver id. A parent/child relationship is enforced between Master and Slave +devices (the logical representation is aligned with the physical +connectivity). + +The information on Master/Slave dependencies is stored in platform data, +board-file, ACPI or DT. The MIPI Software specification defines additional +link_id parameters for controllers that have multiple Master interfaces. The +dev_id registers are only unique in the scope of a link, and the link_id +unique in the scope of a controller. Both dev_id and link_id are not +necessarily unique at the system level but the parent/child information is +used to avoid ambiguity. + +.. code-block:: c + + static const struct sdw_device_id slave_id[] = { + SDW_SLAVE_ENTRY(0x025d, 0x700, 0), + {}, + }; + MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE(sdw, slave_id); + + static struct sdw_driver slave_sdw_driver = { + .driver = { + .name = "slave_xxx", + .pm = &slave_runtime_pm, + }, + .probe = slave_sdw_probe, + .remove = slave_sdw_remove, + .ops = &slave_slave_ops, + .id_table = slave_id, + }; + + +For capabilities, Bus implements API to read standard Slave MIPI properties +and also provides callback in Slave ops for Slave driver to implement own +function that provides capabilities information. Bus needs to know a set of +Slave capabilities to program Slave registers and to control the Bus +reconfigurations. + +Future enhancements to be done +============================== + + (1) Bulk Register Access (BRA) transfers. + + + (2) Multiple data lane support. + +Links +===== + +SoundWire MIPI specification 1.1 is available at: +https://members.mipi.org/wg/All-Members/document/70290 + +SoundWire MIPI DisCo (Discovery and Configuration) specification is +available at: +https://www.mipi.org/specifications/mipi-disco-soundwire + +(publicly accessible with registration or directly accessible to MIPI +members) + +MIPI Alliance Manufacturer ID Page: mid.mipi.org |
