From 5b7c4cabbb65f5c469464da6c5f614cbd7f730f2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Linus Torvalds Date: Tue, 21 Feb 2023 18:24:12 -0800 Subject: Merge tag 'net-next-6.3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next 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 + +Introduction of Uacce +--------------------- + +Uacce (Unified/User-space-access-intended Accelerator Framework) targets to +provide Shared Virtual Addressing (SVA) between accelerators and processes. +So accelerator can access any data structure of the main cpu. +This differs from the data sharing between cpu and io device, which share +only data content rather than address. +Because of the unified address, hardware and user space of process can +share the same virtual address in the communication. +Uacce takes the hardware accelerator as a heterogeneous processor, while +IOMMU share the same CPU page tables and as a result the same translation +from va to pa. + +:: + + __________________________ __________________________ + | | | | + | User application (CPU) | | Hardware Accelerator | + |__________________________| |__________________________| + + | | + | va | va + V V + __________ __________ + | | | | + | MMU | | IOMMU | + |__________| |__________| + | | + | | + V pa V pa + _______________________________________ + | | + | Memory | + |_______________________________________| + + + +Architecture +------------ + +Uacce is the kernel module, taking charge of iommu and address sharing. +The user drivers and libraries are called WarpDrive. + +The uacce device, built around the IOMMU SVA API, can access multiple +address spaces, including the one without PASID. + +A virtual concept, queue, is used for the communication. It provides a +FIFO-like interface. And it maintains a unified address space between the +application and all involved hardware. + +:: + + ___________________ ________________ + | | user API | | + | WarpDrive library | ------------> | user driver | + |___________________| |________________| + | | + | | + | queue fd | + | | + | | + v | + ___________________ _________ | + | | | | | mmap memory + | Other framework | | uacce | | r/w interface + | crypto/nic/others | |_________| | + |___________________| | + | | | + | register | register | + | | | + | | | + | _________________ __________ | + | | | | | | + ------------- | Device Driver | | IOMMU | | + |_________________| |__________| | + | | + | V + | ___________________ + | | | + -------------------------- | Device(Hardware) | + |___________________| + + +How does it work +---------------- + +Uacce uses mmap and IOMMU to play the trick. + +Uacce creates a chrdev for every device registered to it. New queue is +created when user application open the chrdev. The file descriptor is used +as the user handle of the queue. +The accelerator device present itself as an Uacce object, which exports as +a chrdev to the user space. The user application communicates with the +hardware by ioctl (as control path) or share memory (as data path). + +The control path to the hardware is via file operation, while data path is +via mmap space of the queue fd. + +The queue file address space: + +:: + + /** + * enum uacce_qfrt: qfrt type + * @UACCE_QFRT_MMIO: device mmio region + * @UACCE_QFRT_DUS: device user share region + */ + enum uacce_qfrt { + UACCE_QFRT_MMIO = 0, + UACCE_QFRT_DUS = 1, + }; + +All regions are optional and differ from device type to type. +Each region can be mmapped only once, otherwise -EEXIST returns. + +The device mmio region is mapped to the hardware mmio space. It is generally +used for doorbell or other notification to the hardware. It is not fast enough +as data channel. + +The device user share region is used for share data buffer between user process +and device. + + +The Uacce register API +---------------------- + +The register API is defined in uacce.h. + +:: + + struct uacce_interface { + char name[UACCE_MAX_NAME_SIZE]; + unsigned int flags; + const struct uacce_ops *ops; + }; + +According to the IOMMU capability, uacce_interface flags can be: + +:: + + /** + * UACCE Device flags: + * UACCE_DEV_SVA: Shared Virtual Addresses + * Support PASID + * Support device page faults (PCI PRI or SMMU Stall) + */ + #define UACCE_DEV_SVA BIT(0) + + struct uacce_device *uacce_alloc(struct device *parent, + struct uacce_interface *interface); + int uacce_register(struct uacce_device *uacce); + void uacce_remove(struct uacce_device *uacce); + +uacce_register results can be: + +a. If uacce module is not compiled, ERR_PTR(-ENODEV) + +b. Succeed with the desired flags + +c. Succeed with the negotiated flags, for example + + uacce_interface.flags = UACCE_DEV_SVA but uacce->flags = ~UACCE_DEV_SVA + + So user driver need check return value as well as the negotiated uacce->flags. + + +The user driver +--------------- + +The queue file mmap space will need a user driver to wrap the communication +protocol. Uacce provides some attributes in sysfs for the user driver to +match the right accelerator accordingly. +More details in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-driver-uacce. -- cgit v1.2.3
