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.

These two formats have +entirely different descriptors, which will be described below. + +Registers +--------- +All registers are MMIO. + +The registers are used for initializing and configuring the device as well as +querying device status in response to management interrupts. + +Endianness +---------- +- Admin Queue messages and registers are all Big Endian. +- GQI descriptors and datapath registers are Big Endian. +- DQO descriptors and datapath registers are Little Endian. + +Admin Queue (AQ) +---------------- +The Admin Queue is a PAGE_SIZE memory block, treated as an array of AQ +commands, used by the driver to issue commands to the device and set up +resources.The driver and the device maintain a count of how many commands +have been submitted and executed. To issue AQ commands, the driver must do +the following (with proper locking): + +1) Copy new commands into next available slots in the AQ array +2) Increment its counter by he number of new commands +3) Write the counter into the GVE_ADMIN_QUEUE_DOORBELL register +4) Poll the ADMIN_QUEUE_EVENT_COUNTER register until it equals + the value written to the doorbell, or until a timeout. + +The device will update the status field in each AQ command reported as +executed through the ADMIN_QUEUE_EVENT_COUNTER register. + +Device Resets +------------- +A device reset is triggered by writing 0x0 to the AQ PFN register. +This causes the device to release all resources allocated by the +driver, including the AQ itself. + +Interrupts +---------- +The following interrupts are supported by the driver: + +Management Interrupt +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +The management interrupt is used by the device to tell the driver to +look at the GVE_DEVICE_STATUS register. + +The handler for the management irq simply queues the service task in +the workqueue to check the register and acks the irq. + +Notification Block Interrupts +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ +The notification block interrupts are used to tell the driver to poll +the queues associated with that interrupt. + +The handler for these irqs schedule the napi for that block to run +and poll the queues. + +GQI Traffic Queues +------------------ +GQI queues are composed of a descriptor ring and a buffer and are assigned to a +notification block. + +The descriptor rings are power-of-two-sized ring buffers consisting of +fixed-size descriptors. They advance their head pointer using a __be32 +doorbell located in Bar2. The tail pointers are advanced by consuming +descriptors in-order and updating a __be32 counter. Both the doorbell +and the counter overflow to zero. + +Each queue's buffers must be registered in advance with the device as a +queue page list, and packet data can only be put in those pages. + +Transmit +~~~~~~~~ +gve maps the buffers for transmit rings into a FIFO and copies the packets +into the FIFO before sending them to the NIC. + +Receive +~~~~~~~ +The buffers for receive rings are put into a data ring that is the same +length as the descriptor ring and the head and tail pointers advance over +the rings together. + +DQO Traffic Queues +------------------ +- Every TX and RX queue is assigned a notification block. + +- TX and RX buffers queues, which send descriptors to the device, use MMIO + doorbells to notify the device of new descriptors. + +- RX and TX completion queues, which receive descriptors from the device, use a + "generation bit" to know when a descriptor was populated by the device. The + driver initializes all bits with the "current generation". The device will + populate received descriptors with the "next generation" which is inverted + from the current generation. When the ring wraps, the current/next generation + are swapped. + +- It's the driver's responsibility to ensure that the RX and TX completion + queues are not overrun. This can be accomplished by limiting the number of + descriptors posted to HW. + +- TX packets have a 16 bit completion_tag and RX buffers have a 16 bit + buffer_id. These will be returned on the TX completion and RX queues + respectively to let the driver know which packet/buffer was completed. + +Transmit +~~~~~~~~ +A packet's buffers are DMA mapped for the device to access before transmission. +After the packet was successfully transmitted, the buffers are unmapped. + +Receive +~~~~~~~ +The driver posts fixed sized buffers to HW on the RX buffer queue. The packet +received on the associated RX queue may span multiple descriptors. -- cgit v1.2.3
