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 + +=================== +Linux KVM Hypercall +=================== + +X86: + KVM Hypercalls have a three-byte sequence of either the vmcall or the vmmcall + instruction. The hypervisor can replace it with instructions that are + guaranteed to be supported. + + Up to four arguments may be passed in rbx, rcx, rdx, and rsi respectively. + The hypercall number should be placed in rax and the return value will be + placed in rax.

Hypercall name. +2. Architecture(s) +3. Status (deprecated, obsolete, active) +4. Purpose + +1. KVM_HC_VAPIC_POLL_IRQ +------------------------ + +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Trigger guest exit so that the host can check for pending + interrupts on reentry. + +2. KVM_HC_MMU_OP +---------------- + +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: deprecated. +:Purpose: Support MMU operations such as writing to PTE, + flushing TLB, release PT. + +3. KVM_HC_FEATURES +------------------ + +:Architecture: PPC +:Status: active +:Purpose: Expose hypercall availability to the guest. On x86 platforms, cpuid + used to enumerate which hypercalls are available. On PPC, either + device tree based lookup ( which is also what EPAPR dictates) + OR KVM specific enumeration mechanism (which is this hypercall) + can be used. + +4. KVM_HC_PPC_MAP_MAGIC_PAGE +---------------------------- + +:Architecture: PPC +:Status: active +:Purpose: To enable communication between the hypervisor and guest there is a + shared page that contains parts of supervisor visible register state. + The guest can map this shared page to access its supervisor register + through memory using this hypercall. + +5. KVM_HC_KICK_CPU +------------------ + +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Hypercall used to wakeup a vcpu from HLT state +:Usage example: + A vcpu of a paravirtualized guest that is busywaiting in guest + kernel mode for an event to occur (ex: a spinlock to become available) can + execute HLT instruction once it has busy-waited for more than a threshold + time-interval. Execution of HLT instruction would cause the hypervisor to put + the vcpu to sleep until occurrence of an appropriate event. Another vcpu of the + same guest can wakeup the sleeping vcpu by issuing KVM_HC_KICK_CPU hypercall, + specifying APIC ID (a1) of the vcpu to be woken up. An additional argument (a0) + is used in the hypercall for future use. + + +6. KVM_HC_CLOCK_PAIRING +----------------------- +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Hypercall used to synchronize host and guest clocks. + +Usage: + +a0: guest physical address where host copies +"struct kvm_clock_offset" structure. + +a1: clock_type, ATM only KVM_CLOCK_PAIRING_WALLCLOCK (0) +is supported (corresponding to the host's CLOCK_REALTIME clock). + + :: + + struct kvm_clock_pairing { + __s64 sec; + __s64 nsec; + __u64 tsc; + __u32 flags; + __u32 pad[9]; + }; + + Where: + * sec: seconds from clock_type clock. + * nsec: nanoseconds from clock_type clock. + * tsc: guest TSC value used to calculate sec/nsec pair + * flags: flags, unused (0) at the moment. + +The hypercall lets a guest compute a precise timestamp across +host and guest. The guest can use the returned TSC value to +compute the CLOCK_REALTIME for its clock, at the same instant. + +Returns KVM_EOPNOTSUPP if the host does not use TSC clocksource, +or if clock type is different than KVM_CLOCK_PAIRING_WALLCLOCK. + +6. KVM_HC_SEND_IPI +------------------ + +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Send IPIs to multiple vCPUs. + +- a0: lower part of the bitmap of destination APIC IDs +- a1: higher part of the bitmap of destination APIC IDs +- a2: the lowest APIC ID in bitmap +- a3: APIC ICR + +The hypercall lets a guest send multicast IPIs, with at most 128 +128 destinations per hypercall in 64-bit mode and 64 vCPUs per +hypercall in 32-bit mode. The destinations are represented by a +bitmap contained in the first two arguments (a0 and a1). Bit 0 of +a0 corresponds to the APIC ID in the third argument (a2), bit 1 +corresponds to the APIC ID a2+1, and so on. + +Returns the number of CPUs to which the IPIs were delivered successfully. + +7. KVM_HC_SCHED_YIELD +--------------------- + +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Hypercall used to yield if the IPI target vCPU is preempted + +a0: destination APIC ID + +:Usage example: When sending a call-function IPI-many to vCPUs, yield if + any of the IPI target vCPUs was preempted. + +8. KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE +------------------------- +:Architecture: x86 +:Status: active +:Purpose: Request KVM to map a GPA range with the specified attributes. + +a0: the guest physical address of the start page +a1: the number of (4kb) pages (must be contiguous in GPA space) +a2: attributes + + Where 'attributes' : + * bits 3:0 - preferred page size encoding 0 = 4kb, 1 = 2mb, 2 = 1gb, etc... + * bit 4 - plaintext = 0, encrypted = 1 + * bits 63:5 - reserved (must be zero) + +**Implementation note**: this hypercall is implemented in userspace via +the KVM_CAP_EXIT_HYPERCALL capability. Userspace must enable that capability +before advertising KVM_FEATURE_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE in the guest CPUID. In +addition, if the guest supports KVM_FEATURE_MIGRATION_CONTROL, userspace +must also set up an MSR filter to process writes to MSR_KVM_MIGRATION_CONTROL. -- cgit v1.2.3
