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.

This memory is expected + to hold a copy of the following structure:: + + struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data { + /* Used for 'page not present' events delivered via #PF */ + __u32 flags; + + /* Used for 'page ready' events delivered via interrupt notification */ + __u32 token; + + __u8 pad[56]; + __u32 enabled; + }; + + Bits 5-4 of the MSR are reserved and should be zero. Bit 0 is set to 1 + when asynchronous page faults are enabled on the vcpu, 0 when disabled. + Bit 1 is 1 if asynchronous page faults can be injected when vcpu is in + cpl == 0. Bit 2 is 1 if asynchronous page faults are delivered to L1 as + #PF vmexits. Bit 2 can be set only if KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_VMEXIT is + present in CPUID. Bit 3 enables interrupt based delivery of 'page ready' + events. Bit 3 can only be set if KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT is present in + CPUID. + + 'Page not present' events are currently always delivered as synthetic + #PF exception. During delivery of these events APF CR2 register contains + a token that will be used to notify the guest when missing page becomes + available. Also, to make it possible to distinguish between real #PF and + APF, first 4 bytes of 64 byte memory location ('flags') will be written + to by the hypervisor at the time of injection. Only first bit of 'flags' + is currently supported, when set, it indicates that the guest is dealing + with asynchronous 'page not present' event. If during a page fault APF + 'flags' is '0' it means that this is regular page fault. Guest is + supposed to clear 'flags' when it is done handling #PF exception so the + next event can be delivered. + + Note, since APF 'page not present' events use the same exception vector + as regular page fault, guest must reset 'flags' to '0' before it does + something that can generate normal page fault. + + Bytes 5-7 of 64 byte memory location ('token') will be written to by the + hypervisor at the time of APF 'page ready' event injection. The content + of these bytes is a token which was previously delivered as 'page not + present' event. The event indicates the page in now available. Guest is + supposed to write '0' to 'token' when it is done handling 'page ready' + event and to write 1' to MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK after clearing the location; + writing to the MSR forces KVM to re-scan its queue and deliver the next + pending notification. + + Note, MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_INT MSR specifying the interrupt vector for 'page + ready' APF delivery needs to be written to before enabling APF mechanism + in MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN or interrupt #0 can get injected. The MSR is + available if KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT is present in CPUID. + + Note, previously, 'page ready' events were delivered via the same #PF + exception as 'page not present' events but this is now deprecated. If + bit 3 (interrupt based delivery) is not set APF events are not delivered. + + If APF is disabled while there are outstanding APFs, they will + not be delivered. + + Currently 'page ready' APF events will be always delivered on the + same vcpu as 'page not present' event was, but guest should not rely on + that. + +MSR_KVM_STEAL_TIME: + 0x4b564d03 + +data: + 64-byte alignment physical address of a memory area which must be + in guest RAM, plus an enable bit in bit 0.

Only one + write, or registration, is needed for each VCPU. The interval between + updates of this structure is arbitrary and implementation-dependent. + The hypervisor may update this structure at any time it sees fit until + anything with bit0 == 0 is written to it. Guest is required to make sure + this structure is initialized to zero. + + Fields have the following meanings: + + version: + a sequence counter. In other words, guest has to check + this field before and after grabbing time information and make + sure they are both equal and even. An odd version indicates an + in-progress update. + + flags: + At this point, always zero. May be used to indicate + changes in this structure in the future. + + steal: + the amount of time in which this vCPU did not run, in + nanoseconds. Time during which the vcpu is idle, will not be + reported as steal time. + + preempted: + indicate the vCPU who owns this struct is running or + not. Non-zero values mean the vCPU has been preempted. Zero + means the vCPU is not preempted. NOTE, it is always zero if the + the hypervisor doesn't support this field. + +MSR_KVM_EOI_EN: + 0x4b564d04 + +data: + Bit 0 is 1 when PV end of interrupt is enabled on the vcpu; 0 + when disabled. Bit 1 is reserved and must be zero. When PV end of + interrupt is enabled (bit 0 set), bits 63-2 hold a 4-byte aligned + physical address of a 4 byte memory area which must be in guest RAM and + must be zeroed. + + The first, least significant bit of 4 byte memory location will be + written to by the hypervisor, typically at the time of interrupt + injection. Value of 1 means that guest can skip writing EOI to the apic + (using MSR or MMIO write); instead, it is sufficient to signal + EOI by clearing the bit in guest memory - this location will + later be polled by the hypervisor. + Value of 0 means that the EOI write is required. + + It is always safe for the guest to ignore the optimization and perform + the APIC EOI write anyway. + + Hypervisor is guaranteed to only modify this least + significant bit while in the current VCPU context, this means that + guest does not need to use either lock prefix or memory ordering + primitives to synchronise with the hypervisor. + + However, hypervisor can set and clear this memory bit at any time: + therefore to make sure hypervisor does not interrupt the + guest and clear the least significant bit in the memory area + in the window between guest testing it to detect + whether it can skip EOI apic write and between guest + clearing it to signal EOI to the hypervisor, + guest must both read the least significant bit in the memory area and + clear it using a single CPU instruction, such as test and clear, or + compare and exchange. + +MSR_KVM_POLL_CONTROL: + 0x4b564d05 + + Control host-side polling. + +data: + Bit 0 enables (1) or disables (0) host-side HLT polling logic. + + KVM guests can request the host not to poll on HLT, for example if + they are performing polling themselves. + +MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_INT: + 0x4b564d06 + +data: + Second asynchronous page fault (APF) control MSR. + + Bits 0-7: APIC vector for delivery of 'page ready' APF events. + Bits 8-63: Reserved + + Interrupt vector for asynchnonous 'page ready' notifications delivery. + The vector has to be set up before asynchronous page fault mechanism + is enabled in MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_EN. The MSR is only available if + KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT is present in CPUID. + +MSR_KVM_ASYNC_PF_ACK: + 0x4b564d07 + +data: + Asynchronous page fault (APF) acknowledgment. + + When the guest is done processing 'page ready' APF event and 'token' + field in 'struct kvm_vcpu_pv_apf_data' is cleared it is supposed to + write '1' to bit 0 of the MSR, this causes the host to re-scan its queue + and check if there are more notifications pending. The MSR is available + if KVM_FEATURE_ASYNC_PF_INT is present in CPUID. + +MSR_KVM_MIGRATION_CONTROL: + 0x4b564d08 + +data: + This MSR is available if KVM_FEATURE_MIGRATION_CONTROL is present in + CPUID. Bit 0 represents whether live migration of the guest is allowed. + + When a guest is started, bit 0 will be 0 if the guest has encrypted + memory and 1 if the guest does not have encrypted memory. If the + guest is communicating page encryption status to the host using the + ``KVM_HC_MAP_GPA_RANGE`` hypercall, it can set bit 0 in this MSR to + allow live migration of the guest. -- cgit v1.2.3
