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.

The driver turns a PXA2xx +synchronous serial port into an SPI master controller +(see Documentation/spi/spi-summary.rst). The driver has the following features + +- Support for any PXA2xx and compatible SSP. +- SSP PIO and SSP DMA data transfers. +- External and Internal (SSPFRM) chip selects. +- Per slave device (chip) configuration. +- Full suspend, freeze, resume support. + +The driver is built around a &struct spi_message FIFO serviced by kernel +thread. The kernel thread, spi_pump_messages(), drives message FIFO and +is responsible for queuing SPI transactions and setting up and launching +the DMA or interrupt driven transfers. + +Declaring PXA2xx Master Controllers +----------------------------------- +Typically, for a legacy platform, an SPI master is defined in the +arch/.../mach-*/board-*.c as a "platform device". The master configuration +is passed to the driver via a table found in include/linux/spi/pxa2xx_spi.h:: + + struct pxa2xx_spi_controller { + u16 num_chipselect; + u8 enable_dma; + ... + }; + +The "pxa2xx_spi_controller.num_chipselect" field is used to determine the number of +slave device (chips) attached to this SPI master. + +The "pxa2xx_spi_controller.enable_dma" field informs the driver that SSP DMA should +be used. This caused the driver to acquire two DMA channels: Rx channel and +Tx channel. The Rx channel has a higher DMA service priority than the Tx channel. +See the "PXA2xx Developer Manual" section "DMA Controller". + +For the new platforms the description of the controller and peripheral devices +comes from Device Tree or ACPI. + +NSSP MASTER SAMPLE +------------------ +Below is a sample configuration using the PXA255 NSSP for a legacy platform:: + + static struct resource pxa_spi_nssp_resources[] = { + [0] = { + .start = __PREG(SSCR0_P(2)), /* Start address of NSSP */ + .end = __PREG(SSCR0_P(2)) + 0x2c, /* Range of registers */ + .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, + }, + [1] = { + .start = IRQ_NSSP, /* NSSP IRQ */ + .end = IRQ_NSSP, + .flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ, + }, + }; + + static struct pxa2xx_spi_controller pxa_nssp_master_info = { + .num_chipselect = 1, /* Matches the number of chips attached to NSSP */ + .enable_dma = 1, /* Enables NSSP DMA */ + }; + + static struct platform_device pxa_spi_nssp = { + .name = "pxa2xx-spi", /* MUST BE THIS VALUE, so device match driver */ + .id = 2, /* Bus number, MUST MATCH SSP number 1..n */ + .resource = pxa_spi_nssp_resources, + .num_resources = ARRAY_SIZE(pxa_spi_nssp_resources), + .dev = { + .platform_data = &pxa_nssp_master_info, /* Passed to driver */ + }, + }; + + static struct platform_device *devices[] __initdata = { + &pxa_spi_nssp, + }; + + static void __init board_init(void) + { + (void)platform_add_device(devices, ARRAY_SIZE(devices)); + } + +Declaring Slave Devices +----------------------- +Typically, for a legacy platform, each SPI slave (chip) is defined in the +arch/.../mach-*/board-*.c using the "spi_board_info" structure found in +"linux/spi/spi.h". See "Documentation/spi/spi-summary.rst" for additional +information. + +Each slave device attached to the PXA must provide slave specific configuration +information via the structure "pxa2xx_spi_chip" found in +"include/linux/spi/pxa2xx_spi.h". The pxa2xx_spi master controller driver +will uses the configuration whenever the driver communicates with the slave +device. All fields are optional. + +:: + + struct pxa2xx_spi_chip { + u8 tx_threshold; + u8 rx_threshold; + u8 dma_burst_size; + u32 timeout; + }; + +The "pxa2xx_spi_chip.tx_threshold" and "pxa2xx_spi_chip.rx_threshold" fields are +used to configure the SSP hardware FIFO. These fields are critical to the +performance of pxa2xx_spi driver and misconfiguration will result in rx +FIFO overruns (especially in PIO mode transfers). Good default values are:: + + .tx_threshold = 8, + .rx_threshold = 8, + +The range is 1 to 16 where zero indicates "use default". + +The "pxa2xx_spi_chip.dma_burst_size" field is used to configure PXA2xx DMA +engine and is related the "spi_device.bits_per_word" field. Read and understand +the PXA2xx "Developer Manual" sections on the DMA controller and SSP Controllers +to determine the correct value. An SSP configured for byte-wide transfers would +use a value of 8. The driver will determine a reasonable default if +dma_burst_size == 0. + +The "pxa2xx_spi_chip.timeout" fields is used to efficiently handle +trailing bytes in the SSP receiver FIFO. The correct value for this field is +dependent on the SPI bus speed ("spi_board_info.max_speed_hz") and the specific +slave device. Please note that the PXA2xx SSP 1 does not support trailing byte +timeouts and must busy-wait any trailing bytes. + +NOTE: the SPI driver cannot control the chip select if SSPFRM is used, so the +chipselect is dropped after each spi_transfer. Most devices need chip select +asserted around the complete message. Use SSPFRM as a GPIO (through a descriptor) +to accommodate these chips. + + +NSSP SLAVE SAMPLE +----------------- +For a legacy platform or in some other cases, the pxa2xx_spi_chip structure +is passed to the pxa2xx_spi driver in the "spi_board_info.controller_data" +field. Below is a sample configuration using the PXA255 NSSP. + +:: + + static struct pxa2xx_spi_chip cs8415a_chip_info = { + .tx_threshold = 8, /* SSP hardward FIFO threshold */ + .rx_threshold = 8, /* SSP hardward FIFO threshold */ + .dma_burst_size = 8, /* Byte wide transfers used so 8 byte bursts */ + .timeout = 235, /* See Intel documentation */ + }; + + static struct pxa2xx_spi_chip cs8405a_chip_info = { + .tx_threshold = 8, /* SSP hardward FIFO threshold */ + .rx_threshold = 8, /* SSP hardward FIFO threshold */ + .dma_burst_size = 8, /* Byte wide transfers used so 8 byte bursts */ + .timeout = 235, /* See Intel documentation */ + }; + + static struct spi_board_info streetracer_spi_board_info[] __initdata = { + { + .modalias = "cs8415a", /* Name of spi_driver for this device */ + .max_speed_hz = 3686400, /* Run SSP as fast a possbile */ + .bus_num = 2, /* Framework bus number */ + .chip_select = 0, /* Framework chip select */ + .platform_data = NULL; /* No spi_driver specific config */ + .controller_data = &cs8415a_chip_info, /* Master chip config */ + .irq = STREETRACER_APCI_IRQ, /* Slave device interrupt */ + }, + { + .modalias = "cs8405a", /* Name of spi_driver for this device */ + .max_speed_hz = 3686400, /* Run SSP as fast a possbile */ + .bus_num = 2, /* Framework bus number */ + .chip_select = 1, /* Framework chip select */ + .controller_data = &cs8405a_chip_info, /* Master chip config */ + .irq = STREETRACER_APCI_IRQ, /* Slave device interrupt */ + }, + }; + + static void __init streetracer_init(void) + { + spi_register_board_info(streetracer_spi_board_info, + ARRAY_SIZE(streetracer_spi_board_info)); + } + + +DMA and PIO I/O Support +----------------------- +The pxa2xx_spi driver supports both DMA and interrupt driven PIO message +transfers. The driver defaults to PIO mode and DMA transfers must be enabled +by setting the "enable_dma" flag in the "pxa2xx_spi_controller" structure. +For the newer platforms, that are known to support DMA, the driver will enable +it automatically and try it first with a possible fallback to PIO. The DMA +mode supports both coherent and stream based DMA mappings. + +The following logic is used to determine the type of I/O to be used on +a per "spi_transfer" basis:: + + if !enable_dma then + always use PIO transfers + + if spi_message.len > 8191 then + print "rate limited" warning + use PIO transfers + + if spi_message.is_dma_mapped and rx_dma_buf != 0 and tx_dma_buf != 0 then + use coherent DMA mode + + if rx_buf and tx_buf are aligned on 8 byte boundary then + use streaming DMA mode + + otherwise + use PIO transfer + +THANKS TO +--------- +David Brownell and others for mentoring the development of this driver. |
