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.

Absolute addresses +===================== + +A lot of the assembly code currently runs in real mode, which means +absolute addresses are used instead of virtual addresses as in the +rest of the kernel. To translate an absolute address to a virtual +address you can lookup in System.map, add __PAGE_OFFSET (0x10000000 +currently). + + +2. HPMCs +======== + +When real-mode code tries to access non-existent memory, you'll get +an HPMC instead of a kernel oops. To debug an HPMC, try to find +the System Responder/Requestor addresses. The System Requestor +address should match (one of the) processor HPAs (high addresses in +the I/O range); the System Responder address is the address real-mode +code tried to access. + +Typical values for the System Responder address are addresses larger +than __PAGE_OFFSET (0x10000000) which mean a virtual address didn't +get translated to a physical address before real-mode code tried to +access it. + + +3. Q bit fun +============ + +Certain, very critical code has to clear the Q bit in the PSW. What +happens when the Q bit is cleared is the CPU does not update the +registers interruption handlers read to find out where the machine +was interrupted - so if you get an interruption between the instruction +that clears the Q bit and the RFI that sets it again you don't know +where exactly it happened. If you're lucky the IAOQ will point to the +instruction that cleared the Q bit, if you're not it points anywhere +at all. Usually Q bit problems will show themselves in unexplainable +system hangs or running off the end of physical memory. diff --git a/Documentation/parisc/features.rst b/Documentation/parisc/features.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000..501d7c450 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/parisc/features.rst @@ -0,0 +1,3 @@ +..

And of +course, you need to save them if you care about them, before calling +another procedure. Some of the above registers do have special meanings +that you should be aware of: + + r1: + The addil instruction is hardwired to place its result in r1, + so if you use that instruction be aware of that. + + r2: + This is the return pointer. In general you don't want to + use this, since you need the pointer to get back to your + caller. However, it is grouped with this set of registers + since the caller can't rely on the value being the same + when you return, i.e. you can copy r2 to another register + and return through that register after trashing r2, and + that should not cause a problem for the calling routine. + + r19-r22: + these are generally regarded as temporary registers. + Note that in 64 bit they are arg7-arg4. + + r23-r26: + these are arg3-arg0, i.e. you can use them if you + don't care about the values that were passed in anymore. + + r28,r29: + are ret0 and ret1. They are what you pass return values + in. r28 is the primary return. When returning small structures + r29 may also be used to pass data back to the caller. + + r30: + stack pointer + + r31: + the ble instruction puts the return pointer in here. + + + r3-r18,r27,r30 need to be saved and restored. r3-r18 are just + general purpose registers. r27 is the data pointer, and is + used to make references to global variables easier. r30 is + the stack pointer. |
