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 +.. c:namespace:: V4L + +.. _dmabuf: + +************************************ +Streaming I/O (DMA buffer importing) +************************************ + +The DMABUF framework provides a generic method for sharing buffers +between multiple devices. Device drivers that support DMABUF can export +a DMA buffer to userspace as a file descriptor (known as the exporter +role), import a DMA buffer from userspace using a file descriptor +previously exported for a different or the same device (known as the +importer role), or both. This section describes the DMABUF importer role +API in V4L2. + +Refer to :ref:`DMABUF exporting ` for details about +exporting V4L2 buffers as DMABUF file descriptors. + +Input and output devices support the streaming I/O method when the +``V4L2_CAP_STREAMING`` flag in the ``capabilities`` field of struct +:c:type:`v4l2_capability` returned by the +:ref:`VIDIOC_QUERYCAP ` ioctl is set. Whether +importing DMA buffers through DMABUF file descriptors is supported is +determined by calling the :ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS ` +ioctl with the memory type set to ``V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF``. + +This I/O method is dedicated to sharing DMA buffers between different +devices, which may be V4L devices or other video-related devices (e.g. +DRM). Buffers (planes) are allocated by a driver on behalf of an +application. Next, these buffers are exported to the application as file +descriptors using an API which is specific for an allocator driver. Only +such file descriptor are exchanged. The descriptors and meta-information +are passed in struct :c:type:`v4l2_buffer` (or in struct +:c:type:`v4l2_plane` in the multi-planar API case). The +driver must be switched into DMABUF I/O mode by calling the +:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS ` with the desired buffer type. + +Example: Initiating streaming I/O with DMABUF file descriptors +============================================================== + +.. code-block:: c + + struct v4l2_requestbuffers reqbuf; + + memset(&reqbuf, 0, sizeof (reqbuf)); + reqbuf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE; + reqbuf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF; + reqbuf.count = 1; + + if (ioctl(fd, VIDIOC_REQBUFS, &reqbuf) == -1) { + if (errno == EINVAL) + printf("Video capturing or DMABUF streaming is not supported\\n"); + else + perror("VIDIOC_REQBUFS"); + + exit(EXIT_FAILURE); + } + +The buffer (plane) file descriptor is passed on the fly with the +:ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF ` ioctl. In case of multiplanar +buffers, every plane can be associated with a different DMABUF +descriptor. Although buffers are commonly cycled, applications can pass +a different DMABUF descriptor at each :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF ` call. + +Example: Queueing DMABUF using single plane API +=============================================== + +.. code-block:: c + + int buffer_queue(int v4lfd, int index, int dmafd) + { + struct v4l2_buffer buf; + + memset(&buf, 0, sizeof buf); + buf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE; + buf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF; + buf.index = index; + buf.m.fd = dmafd; + + if (ioctl(v4lfd, VIDIOC_QBUF, &buf) == -1) { + perror("VIDIOC_QBUF"); + return -1; + } + + return 0; + } + +Example 3.6. Queueing DMABUF using multi plane API +================================================== + +.. code-block:: c + + int buffer_queue_mp(int v4lfd, int index, int dmafd[], int n_planes) + { + struct v4l2_buffer buf; + struct v4l2_plane planes[VIDEO_MAX_PLANES]; + int i; + + memset(&buf, 0, sizeof buf); + buf.type = V4L2_BUF_TYPE_VIDEO_CAPTURE_MPLANE; + buf.memory = V4L2_MEMORY_DMABUF; + buf.index = index; + buf.m.planes = planes; + buf.length = n_planes; + + memset(&planes, 0, sizeof planes); + + for (i = 0; i < n_planes; ++i) + buf.m.planes[i].m.fd = dmafd[i]; + + if (ioctl(v4lfd, VIDIOC_QBUF, &buf) == -1) { + perror("VIDIOC_QBUF"); + return -1; + } + + return 0; + } + +Captured or displayed buffers are dequeued with the +:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF ` ioctl. The driver can unlock the +buffer at any time between the completion of the DMA and this ioctl. The +memory is also unlocked when +:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ` is called, +:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS `, or when the device is closed. + +For capturing applications it is customary to enqueue a number of empty +buffers, to start capturing and enter the read loop. Here the +application waits until a filled buffer can be dequeued, and re-enqueues +the buffer when the data is no longer needed. Output applications fill +and enqueue buffers, when enough buffers are stacked up output is +started. In the write loop, when the application runs out of free +buffers it must wait until an empty buffer can be dequeued and reused. +Two methods exist to suspend execution of the application until one or +more buffers can be dequeued. By default :ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF +` blocks when no buffer is in the outgoing queue. When the +``O_NONBLOCK`` flag was given to the :c:func:`open()` function, +:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF ` returns immediately with an ``EAGAIN`` +error code when no buffer is available. The +:c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` +functions are always available. + +To start and stop capturing or displaying applications call the +:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON ` and +:ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ` ioctls. + +.. note:: + + :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ` removes all buffers from + both queues and unlocks all buffers as a side effect. Since there is no + notion of doing anything "now" on a multitasking system, if an + application needs to synchronize with another event it should examine + the struct :c:type:`v4l2_buffer` ``timestamp`` of captured or + outputted buffers. + +Drivers implementing DMABUF importing I/O must support the +:ref:`VIDIOC_REQBUFS `, :ref:`VIDIOC_QBUF `, +:ref:`VIDIOC_DQBUF `, :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMON +` and :ref:`VIDIOC_STREAMOFF ` ioctls, +and the :c:func:`select()` and :c:func:`poll()` +functions. -- cgit v1.2.3
