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.

Usually the external debug mode is well known as the external +debugger connects with SoC from JTAG port; on the other hand the program can +explore debugging method which rely on self-hosted debug mode, this document +is to focus on this part. + +The debug module provides sample-based profiling extension, which can be used +to sample CPU program counter, secure state and exception level, etc; usually +every CPU has one dedicated debug module to be connected. Based on self-hosted +debug mechanism, Linux kernel can access these related registers from mmio +region when the kernel panic happens. The callback notifier for kernel panic +will dump related registers for every CPU; finally this is good for assistant +analysis for panic. + + +Implementation +-------------- + +- During driver registration, it uses EDDEVID and EDDEVID1 - two device ID + registers to decide if sample-based profiling is implemented or not. On some + platforms this hardware feature is fully or partially implemented; and if + this feature is not supported then registration will fail. + +- At the time this documentation was written, the debug driver mainly relies on + information gathered by the kernel panic callback notifier from three + sampling registers: EDPCSR, EDVIDSR and EDCIDSR: from EDPCSR we can get + program counter; EDVIDSR has information for secure state, exception level, + bit width, etc; EDCIDSR is context ID value which contains the sampled value + of CONTEXTIDR_EL1. + +- The driver supports a CPU running in either AArch64 or AArch32 mode. The + registers naming convention is a bit different between them, AArch64 uses + 'ED' for register prefix (ARM DDI 0487A.k, chapter H9.1) and AArch32 uses + 'DBG' as prefix (ARM DDI 0487A.k, chapter G5.1). The driver is unified to + use AArch64 naming convention. + +- ARMv8-a (ARM DDI 0487A.k) and ARMv7-a (ARM DDI 0406C.b) have different + register bits definition. So the driver consolidates two difference: + + If PCSROffset=0b0000, on ARMv8-a the feature of EDPCSR is not implemented; + but ARMv7-a defines "PCSR samples are offset by a value that depends on the + instruction set state". For ARMv7-a, the driver checks furthermore if CPU + runs with ARM or thumb instruction set and calibrate PCSR value, the + detailed description for offset is in ARMv7-a ARM (ARM DDI 0406C.b) chapter + C11.11.34 "DBGPCSR, Program Counter Sampling Register". + + If PCSROffset=0b0010, ARMv8-a defines "EDPCSR implemented, and samples have + no offset applied and do not sample the instruction set state in AArch32 + state". So on ARMv8 if EDDEVID1.PCSROffset is 0b0010 and the CPU operates + in AArch32 state, EDPCSR is not sampled; when the CPU operates in AArch64 + state EDPCSR is sampled and no offset are applied. + + +Clock and power domain +---------------------- + +Before accessing debug registers, we should ensure the clock and power domain +have been enabled properly. In ARMv8-a ARM (ARM DDI 0487A.k) chapter 'H9.1 +Debug registers', the debug registers are spread into two domains: the debug +domain and the CPU domain. +:: + + +---------------+ + | | + | | + +----------+--+ | + dbg_clock -->| |**| |<-- cpu_clock + | Debug |**| CPU | + dbg_power_domain -->| |**| |<-- cpu_power_domain + +----------+--+ | + | | + | | + +---------------+ + +For debug domain, the user uses DT binding "clocks" and "power-domains" to +specify the corresponding clock source and power supply for the debug logic. +The driver calls the pm_runtime_{put|get} operations as needed to handle the +debug power domain. + +For CPU domain, the different SoC designs have different power management +schemes and finally this heavily impacts external debug module. So we can +divide into below cases: + +- On systems with a sane power controller which can behave correctly with + respect to CPU power domain, the CPU power domain can be controlled by + register EDPRCR in driver. The driver firstly writes bit EDPRCR.COREPURQ + to power up the CPU, and then writes bit EDPRCR.CORENPDRQ for emulation + of CPU power down. As result, this can ensure the CPU power domain is + powered on properly during the period when access debug related registers; + +- Some designs will power down an entire cluster if all CPUs on the cluster + are powered down - including the parts of the debug registers that should + remain powered in the debug power domain. The bits in EDPRCR are not + respected in these cases, so these designs do not support debug over + power down in the way that the CoreSight / Debug designers anticipated. + This means that even checking EDPRSR has the potential to cause a bus hang + if the target register is unpowered. + + In this case, accessing to the debug registers while they are not powered + is a recipe for disaster; so we need preventing CPU low power states at boot + time or when user enable module at the run time. Please see chapter + "How to use the module" for detailed usage info for this. + + +Device Tree Bindings +-------------------- + +See Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/arm,coresight-cpu-debug.yaml for +details. + + +How to use the module +--------------------- + +If you want to enable debugging functionality at boot time, you can add +"coresight_cpu_debug.enable=1" to the kernel command line parameter. + +The driver also can work as module, so can enable the debugging when insmod +module:: + + # insmod coresight_cpu_debug.ko debug=1 + +When boot time or insmod module you have not enabled the debugging, the driver +uses the debugfs file system to provide a knob to dynamically enable or disable +debugging: + +To enable it, write a '1' into /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable:: + + # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable + +To disable it, write a '0' into /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable:: + + # echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/coresight_cpu_debug/enable + +As explained in chapter "Clock and power domain", if you are working on one +platform which has idle states to power off debug logic and the power +controller cannot work well for the request from EDPRCR, then you should +firstly constraint CPU idle states before enable CPU debugging feature; so can +ensure the accessing to debug logic. + +If you want to limit idle states at boot time, you can use "nohlt" or +"cpuidle.off=1" in the kernel command line. + +At the runtime you can disable idle states with below methods: + +It is possible to disable CPU idle states by way of the PM QoS +subsystem, more specifically by using the "/dev/cpu_dma_latency" +interface (see Documentation/power/pm_qos_interface.rst for more +details). As specified in the PM QoS documentation the requested +parameter will stay in effect until the file descriptor is released. +For example:: + + # exec 3<> /dev/cpu_dma_latency; echo 0 >&3 + ... + Do some work... + ... + # exec 3<>- + +The same can also be done from an application program. + +Disable specific CPU's specific idle state from cpuidle sysfs (see +Documentation/admin-guide/pm/cpuidle.rst):: + + # echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu$cpu/cpuidle/state$state/disable + +Output format +------------- + +Here is an example of the debugging output format:: + + ARM external debug module: + coresight-cpu-debug 850000.debug: CPU[0]: + coresight-cpu-debug 850000.debug: EDPRSR: 00000001 (Power:On DLK:Unlock) + coresight-cpu-debug 850000.debug: EDPCSR: handle_IPI+0x174/0x1d8 + coresight-cpu-debug 850000.debug: EDCIDSR: 00000000 + coresight-cpu-debug 850000.debug: EDVIDSR: 90000000 (State:Non-secure Mode:EL1/0 Width:64bits VMID:0) + coresight-cpu-debug 852000.debug: CPU[1]: + coresight-cpu-debug 852000.debug: EDPRSR: 00000001 (Power:On DLK:Unlock) + coresight-cpu-debug 852000.debug: EDPCSR: debug_notifier_call+0x23c/0x358 + coresight-cpu-debug 852000.debug: EDCIDSR: 00000000 + coresight-cpu-debug 852000.debug: EDVIDSR: 90000000 (State:Non-secure Mode:EL1/0 Width:64bits VMID:0) |
