prequeue is a tcp receive optimization that moves part of rx processing
from bh to process context.
This only works if the socket being processed belongs to a process that
is blocked in recv on that socket.
In practice, this doesn't happen anymore that often because nowadays
servers tend to use an event driven (epoll) model.
Even normal client applications (web browsers) commonly use many tcp
connections in parallel.
This has measureable impact only in netperf (which uses plain recv and
thus allows prequeue use) from host to locally running vm (~4%), however,
there were no changes when using netperf between two physical hosts with
ixgbe interfaces.

"Two notable fixes.
- While adding NUMA affinity support to unbound workqueues, the
assumption that an unbound workqueue with max_active == 1 is

The plan was to use explicit alloc_ordered_workqueue() for those
cases. Unfortunately, I forgot to update the documentation properly
and we grew a handful of use cases which depend on that assumption.
While we want to convert them to alloc_ordered_workqueue(), we
don't really lose anything by enforcing ordered execution on
unbound max_active == 1 workqueues and it doesn't make sense to
risk subtle bugs. Restore the assumption.
- Workqueue assumes that CPU <-> NUMA node mapping remains static.
This is a general assumption - we don't have any synchronization
mechanism around CPU <-> node mapping. Unfortunately, powerpc may
change the mapping dynamically leading to crashes. Michael added a

2) Jiri - rename: validate_nla_bitfield_32 to validate_nla_bitfield_32
3) Jiri - rename: NLA_BITFIELD_32 to NLA_BITFIELD32
4) Jiri - remove unnecessary break when we return in case statement
5) Jiri - rename and move nla_get_bitfield_32 to an earlier patch
6) Jiri - xmas tree alignment of var declaration
7) Jiri - rename all declarations of bitfield 32 vars to be consistent ("bf")
8) Jiri - improve validate_nla_bitfield32() validation to disallow valid
bit values that are not selected by the selector
Changes since v10:
-----------------
1) Jiri: move type->validate_content() to its own patch
Jamal: decided to remove it altogether so we can get this patch set in.
2) Change name of NLA_FLAG_BITS to NLA_BITFIELD_32 based on discussions
with D. Ahern and Jiri. D. Ahern suggests to make this a variable bitmap size.
My analysis at this point is it too complex and i only need a few bit
flags. If we run out of bits someone else can create a new NLA_BITFIELD_XXX
and start using that. So please let this go.
3) Jamal - Add Suggested-by: Jiri for type NLA_BITFIELD_32
4) Jiri: Change name allowed_flags to tcaa_root_flags_allowed
5) Jiri: Introduce nla_get_flag_bits_values() helper instead of using
memcpy for retrieving nla_bitfield_32 fields.
Changes since v9:
-----------------
1) General consensus:
- remove again the use of BIT() to maintain uapi consistency ;->
1) Jiri:
- Add a new netlink type NLA_FLAG_BITS to check for valid bits
and use it instead of inline vetting (patch 4/4 now)
Changes since v8:
-----------------
1) Jiri:
- Add back the use of BIT(). Eventually fix iproute2 instead
- Rename VALID_TCA_FLAGS to VALID_TCA_ROOT_FLAGS
Changes since v7:
-----------------
Jamal:
No changes.
Patch 1 went out twice. Resend without two copies of patch 1
changes since v6:
-----------------
1) DaveM:
New rules for netlink messages. From now on we are going to start
checking for bits that are not used and rejecting anything we dont
understand. In the future this is going to require major changes
to user space code (tc etc). This is just a start.
To quote, David:
"
Again, bits you aren't using now, make sure userspace doesn't
set them. And if it does, reject.
"
Added checks for ensuring things work as above.
2) Jiri:
a)Fix the commit message to properly use "Fixes" description
b)Align assignments for nla_policy
Changes since v5:
----------------
0)
Remove use of BIT() because it is kernel specific. Requires a separate
patch (Jiri can submit that in his cleanups)
1)To paraphrase Eric D.
"memcpy(nla_data(count_attr), &cb->args[1], sizeof(u32));
wont work on 64bit BE machines because cb->args[1]
(which is 64 bit is larger in size than sizeof(u32))"
Fixed
2) Jiri Pirko
i) Spotted a bug fix mixed in the patch for wrong TLV
fix. Add patch 1/3 to address this. Make part of this
series because of dependencies.
ii) Rename ACT_LARGE_DUMP_ON -> TCA_FLAG_LARGE_DUMP_ON
iii) Satisfy Jiri's obsession against the noun "tcaa"
a)Rename struct nlattr *tcaa --> struct nlattr *tb
b)Rename TCAA_ACT_XXX -> TCA_ROOT_XXX
Changes since v4:
-----------------
1) Eric D.
pointed out that when all skb space is used up by the dump
there will be no space to insert the TCAA_ACT_COUNT attribute.

TCAA_UNSPEC,
TCAA_ACT_TAB,
TCAA_ACT_FLAGS,
TCAA_ACT_COUNT,
TCAA_ACT_TIME_FILTER,
__TCAA_MAX
};
to:

TCAA_ACT_TAB,
TCAA_ACT_FLAGS,
TCAA_ACT_COUNT,
__TCAA_MAX,

This patch adds support for filtering based on time since last used.
When we are dumping a large number of actions it is useful to
have the option of filtering based on when the action was last
used to reduce the amount of data crossing to user space.
With this patch the user space app sets the TCA_ROOT_TIME_DELTA
attribute with the value in milliseconds with "time of interest
since now". The kernel converts this to jiffies and does the
filtering comparison matching entries that have seen activity
since then and returns them to user space.
Old kernels and old tc continue to work in legacy mode since
they dont specify this attribute.
Some example (we have 400 actions bound to 400 filters); at
installation time. Using updated when tc setting the time of
interest to 120 seconds earlier (we see 400 actions):
prompt$ hackedtc actions ls action gact since 120000| grep index | wc -l
400
go get some coffee and wait for > 120 seconds and try again:
prompt$ hackedtc actions ls action gact since 120000 | grep index | wc -l
0
Lets see a filter bound to one of these actions:
....
filter pref 10 u32
filter pref 10 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1
filter pref 10 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 1:10 (rule hit 2 success 1)
match 7f000002/ffffffff at 12 (success 1 )
action order 1: gact action pass
random type none pass val 0
index 23 ref 2 bind 1 installed 1145 sec used 802 sec
Action statistics:
Sent 84 bytes 1 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
....
that coffee took long, no? It was good.
Now lets ping -c 1 127.0.0.2, then run the actions again:
prompt$ hackedtc actions ls action gact since 120 | grep index | wc -l
1
More details please:
prompt$ hackedtc -s actions ls action gact since 120000
action order 0: gact action pass
random type none pass val 0
index 23 ref 2 bind 1 installed 1270 sec used 30 sec
Action statistics:
Sent 168 bytes 2 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
And the filter?

filter pref 10 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1
filter pref 10 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 1:10 (rule hit 4 success 2)

When you dump hundreds of thousands of actions, getting only 32 per
dump batch even when the socket buffer and memory allocations allow
is inefficient.
With this change, the user will get as many as possibly fitting
within the given constraints available to the kernel.
The top level action TLV space is extended. An attribute
TCA_ROOT_FLAGS is used to carry flags; flag TCA_FLAG_LARGE_DUMP_ON
is set by the user indicating the user is capable of processing
these large dumps. Older user space which doesnt set this flag
doesnt get the large (than 32) batches.
The kernel uses the TCA_ROOT_COUNT attribute to tell the user how many
actions are put in a single batch. As such user space app knows how long
to iterate (independent of the type of action being dumped)
instead of hardcoded maximum of 32 thus maintaining backward compat.
Some results dumping 1.5M actions below:
first an unpatched tc which doesnt understand these features...
prompt$ time -p tc actions ls action gact | grep index | wc -l
1500000
real 1388.43
user 2.07
sys 1386.79
Now lets see a patched tc which sets the correct flags when requesting
a dump:
prompt$ time -p updatedtc actions ls action gact | grep index | wc -l
1500000
real 178.13
user 2.02
sys 176.96
That is about 8x performance improvement for tc app which sets its
receive buffer to about 32K.

Generic bitflags attribute content sent to the kernel by user.
With this netlink attr type the user can either set or unset a
flag in the kernel.
The value is a bitmap that defines the bit values being set
The selector is a bitmask that defines which value bit is to be
considered.
A check is made to ensure the rules that a kernel subsystem always
conforms to bitflags the kernel already knows about. i.e
if the user tries to set a bit flag that is not understood then
the _it will be rejected_.
In the most basic form, the user specifies the attribute policy as:
[ATTR_GOO] = { .type = NLA_BITFIELD32, .validation_data = &myvalidflags },
where myvalidflags is the bit mask of the flags the kernel understands.
If the user _does not_ provide myvalidflags then the attribute will
also be rejected.
Examples:
value = 0x0, and selector = 0x1
implies we are selecting bit 1 and we want to set its value to 0.
value = 0x2, and selector = 0x2
implies we are selecting bit 2 and we want to set its value to 1.

The FEC Receive Control Register has a 14 bit field indicating the
longest frame that may be received. It is being set to 1522. Frames
longer than this are discarded, but counted as being in error.
When using DSA, frames from the switch has an additional header,
either 4 or 8 bytes if a Marvell switch is used. Thus a full MTU frame
of 1522 bytes received by the switch on a port becomes 1530 bytes when
passed to the host via the FEC interface.
Change the maximum receive size to 2048 - 64, where 64 is the maximum
rx_alignment applied on the receive buffer for AVB capable FEC
cores. Use this value also for the maximum receive buffer size. The
driver is already allocating a receive SKB of 2048 bytes, so this
change should not have any significant effects.
Tested on imx51, imx6, vf610.

This patch includes following changes
a) New ETHTOOL_SFECPARAM/SFECPARAM API, handled by
the new get_fecparam/set_fecparam callbacks, provides support
for configuration of forward error correction modes.
b) Link mode bits for FEC modes i.e. None (No FEC mode), RS, BaseR/FC
are defined so that users can configure these fec modes for supported
and advertising fields as part of link autonegotiation.

netvsc: minor fixes and optimization
This is a subset of earlier submission with a few more fixes
found during testing. The are two small optimizations, one is to
better manage the receive completion ring, and the other is removing
one unneeded level of indirection.
Will submit the improved VF support and buffer sizing in a later
patch so they get more review.

If setting receive buffer fails, the error unwind would cause
kernel panic because it was not correctly doing RCU and NAPI
unwind. RCU'd pointer needs to be reset to NULL, and NAPI needs
to be disabled not deleted.

Optimize how receive completion ring are managed.
* Allocate only as many slots as needed for all buffers from host
* Allocate before setting up sub channel for better error detection
* Don't need to keep copy of initial receive section message
* Precompute the watermark for when receive flushing is needed
* Replace division with conditional test
* Replace atomic per-device variable with per-channel check.
* Handle corner case where receive completion send
fails if ring buffer to host is full.

When an early demuxed packet reaches __udp6_lib_lookup_skb(), the
sk reference is retrieved and used, but the relevant reference
count is leaked and the socket destructor is never called.
Beyond leaking the sk memory, if there are pending UDP packets
in the receive queue, even the related accounted memory is leaked.
In the long run, this will cause persistent forward allocation errors
and no UDP skbs (both ipv4 and ipv6) will be able to reach the
user-space.
Fix this by explicitly accessing the early demux reference before
the lookup, and properly decreasing the socket reference count
after usage.
Also drop the skb_steal_sock() in __udp6_lib_lookup_skb(), and
the now obsoleted comment about "socket cache".
The newly added code is derived from the current ipv4 code for the
similar path.
v1 -> v2:
fixed the __udp6_lib_rcv() return code for resubmission,
as suggested by Eric

bnxt_en depends on MAY_USE_DEVLINK; this is used to force bnxt_en
to be =m when DEVLINK is =m.
Now, bnxt_re selects bnxt_en. Unless bnxt_re also explicitly calls
out dependency on MAY_USE_DEVLINK, Kconfig does not force bnxt_re
to be =m when DEVLINK is =m, causing the following error:

For SGMII/RGMII/QSGMII interfaces when physical link goes down
while traffic is high is resulting in underflow condition being set
on that specific BGX's LMAC. Which assets a backpresure and VNIC stops
transmitting packets.
This is due to BGX being disabled in link status change callback while
packet is in transit. This patch fixes this issue by not disabling BGX
but instead just disables packet Rx and Tx.
