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: GFDL-1.1-no-invariants-or-later + +.. _control: + +************* +User Controls +************* + +Devices typically have a number of user-settable controls such as +brightness, saturation and so on, which would be presented to the user +on a graphical user interface. But, different devices will have +different controls available, and furthermore, the range of possible +values, and the default value will vary from device to device. The +control ioctls provide the information and a mechanism to create a nice +user interface for these controls that will work correctly with any +device. + +All controls are accessed using an ID value. V4L2 defines several IDs +for specific purposes. Drivers can also implement their own custom +controls using ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` [#f1]_ and higher values. The +pre-defined control IDs have the prefix ``V4L2_CID_``, and are listed in +:ref:`control-id`. The ID is used when querying the attributes of a +control, and when getting or setting the current value. + +Generally applications should present controls to the user without +assumptions about their purpose. Each control comes with a name string +the user is supposed to understand. When the purpose is non-intuitive +the driver writer should provide a user manual, a user interface plug-in +or a driver specific panel application. Predefined IDs were introduced +to change a few controls programmatically, for example to mute a device +during a channel switch. + +Drivers may enumerate different controls after switching the current +video input or output, tuner or modulator, or audio input or output. +Different in the sense of other bounds, another default and current +value, step size or other menu items. A control with a certain *custom* +ID can also change name and type. + +If a control is not applicable to the current configuration of the +device (for example, it doesn't apply to the current video input) +drivers set the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_INACTIVE`` flag. + +Control values are stored globally, they do not change when switching +except to stay within the reported bounds. They also do not change e. g. +when the device is opened or closed, when the tuner radio frequency is +changed or generally never without application request. + +V4L2 specifies an event mechanism to notify applications when controls +change value (see +:ref:`VIDIOC_SUBSCRIBE_EVENT`, event +``V4L2_EVENT_CTRL``), panel applications might want to make use of that +in order to always reflect the correct control value. + +All controls use machine endianness. + + +.. _control-id: + +Control IDs +=========== + +``V4L2_CID_BASE`` + First predefined ID, equal to ``V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS``. + +``V4L2_CID_USER_BASE`` + Synonym of ``V4L2_CID_BASE``. + +``V4L2_CID_BRIGHTNESS`` ``(integer)`` + Picture brightness, or more precisely, the black level. + +``V4L2_CID_CONTRAST`` ``(integer)`` + Picture contrast or luma gain. + +``V4L2_CID_SATURATION`` ``(integer)`` + Picture color saturation or chroma gain. + +``V4L2_CID_HUE`` ``(integer)`` + Hue or color balance. + +``V4L2_CID_AUDIO_VOLUME`` ``(integer)`` + Overall audio volume.

This makes it hard to programmatically set such controls + since the meaning of the control with that ID is driver dependent. In + order to resolve this drivers use unique IDs and the + ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs are mapped to those unique IDs by the + kernel. Consider these ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs as aliases to + the real IDs. + + Many applications today still use the ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` IDs + instead of using :ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCTRL` with + the ``V4L2_CTRL_FLAG_NEXT_CTRL`` flag to enumerate all IDs, so + support for ``V4L2_CID_PRIVATE_BASE`` is still around. -- cgit v1.2.3
