when 'external' entity notifies the aging
When 'learned_sync' flag is turned on, the offloaded switch
port syncs learned MAC addresses to bridge's FDB via switchdev notifier
(NETDEV_SWITCH_FDB_ADD). Currently, FDB entries learnt via this mechanism are
wrongly being deleted by bridge aging logic. This patch ensures that FDB
entries synced from offloaded switch ports are not deleted by bridging logic.
Such entries can only be deleted via switchdev notifier
(NETDEV_SWITCH_FDB_DEL).

A typical qdisc setup is the following :
bond0 : bonding device, using HTB hierarchy
eth1/eth2 : slaves, multiqueue NIC, using MQ + FQ qdisc
XPS allows to spread packets on specific tx queues, based on the cpu
doing the send.
Problem is that dequeues from bond0 qdisc can happen on random cpus,
due to the fact that qdisc_run() can dequeue a batch of packets.
CPUA -> queue packet P1 on bond0 qdisc, P1->ooo_okay=1
CPUA -> queue packet P2 on bond0 qdisc, P2->ooo_okay=0
CPUB -> dequeue packet P1 from bond0
enqueue packet on eth1/eth2
CPUC -> dequeue packet P2 from bond0
enqueue packet on eth1/eth2 using sk cache (ooo_okay is 0)
get_xps_queue() then might select wrong queue for P1, since current cpu
might be different than CPUA.
P2 might be sent on the old queue (stored in sk->sk_tx_queue_mapping),
if CPUC runs a bit faster (or CPUB spins a bit on qdisc lock)
Effect of this bug is TCP reorders, and more generally not optimal
TX queue placement. (A victim bulk flow can be migrated to the wrong TX
queue for a while)
To fix this, we have to record sender cpu number the first time
dev_queue_xmit() is called for one tx skb.
We can union napi_id (used on receive path) and sender_cpu,
granted we clear sender_cpu in skb_scrub_packet() (credit to Willem for
this union idea)

Currntly, if we are not doing UFO on the packet, all UDP
packets will start with CHECKSUM_NONE and thus perform full

One deployment requirement of DCTCP is to be able to run
in a DC setting along with TCP traffic. As Glenn Judd's
NSDI'15 paper "Attaining the Promise and Avoiding the Pitfalls
of TCP in the Datacenter" [1] (tba) explains, one way to
solve this on switch side is to split DCTCP and TCP traffic
in two queues per switch port based on the DSCP: one queue
soley intended for DCTCP traffic and one for non-DCTCP traffic.
For the DCTCP queue, there's the marking threshold K as
explained in commit e3118e8359bb ("net: tcp: add DCTCP congestion
control algorithm") for RED marking ECT(0) packets with CE.
For the non-DCTCP queue, there's f.e. a classic tail drop queue.
As already explained in e3118e8359bb, running DCTCP at scale
when not marking SYN/SYN-ACK packets with ECT(0) has severe
consequences as for non-ECT(0) packets, traversing the RED
marking DCTCP queue will result in a severe reduction of
connection probability.
This is due to the DCTCP queue being dominated by ECT(0) traffic
and switches handle non-ECT traffic in the RED marking queue
after passing K as drops, where K is usually a low watermark
in order to leave enough tailroom for bursts. Splitting DCTCP
traffic among several queues (ECN and non-ECN queue) is being
considered a terrible idea in the network community as it
splits single flows across multiple network paths.
Therefore, commit e3118e8359bb implements this on Linux as
ECT(0) marked traffic, as we argue that marking all packets
of a DCTCP flow is the only viable solution and also doesn't
speak against the draft.
However, recently, a DCTCP implementation for FreeBSD hit also
their mainline kernel [2]. In order to let them play well
together with Linux' DCTCP, we would need to loosen the
requirement that ECT(0) has to be asserted during the 3WHS as
not implemented in FreeBSD. This simplifies the ECN test and
lets DCTCP work together with FreeBSD.
Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

net-timestamp: blinding
Changes
(v2 -> v3)
- rebase only: v2 did not make it to patchwork / netdev
(v1 -> v2)
- fix capability check in patch 2
this could be moved into net/core/sock.c as sk_capable_nouser()
(rfc -> v1)
- dropped patch 4: timestamp batching
due to complexity, as discussed
- dropped patch 5: default mode
because it does not really cover all use cases, as discussed
- added documentation
- minor fix, see patch 2
Two issues were raised during recent timestamping discussions:
1. looping full packets on the error queue exposes packet headers
2. TCP timestamping with retransmissions generates many timestamps
This RFC patchset is an attempt at addressing both without breaking
legacy behavior.
Patch 1 reintroduces the "no payload" timestamp option, which loops
timestamps onto an empty skb. This reduces the pressure on SO_RCVBUF
from looping many timestamps. It does not reduce the number of recv()
calls needed to process them. The timestamp cookie mechanism developed
in http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/427213/ did, but this is
considerably simpler.
Patch 2 then gives administrators the power to block all timestamp
requests that contain data by unprivileged users. I proposed this
earlier as a backward compatible workaround in the discussion of
net-timestamp: pull headers for SOCK_STREAM
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/414810/
Patch 3 only updates the txtimestamp example to test this option.
Verified that with option '-n', length is zero in all cases and
option '-I' (PKTINFO) stops working.

Tx timestamps are looped onto the error queue on top of an skb. This
mechanism leaks packet headers to processes unless the no-payload
options SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY is set.
Add a sysctl that optionally drops looped timestamp with data. This
only affects processes without CAP_NET_RAW.
The policy is checked when timestamps are generated in the stack.
It is possible for timestamps with data to be reported after the
sysctl is set, if these were queued internally earlier.
No vulnerability is immediately known that exploits knowledge
gleaned from packet headers, but it may still be preferable to allow
administrators to lock down this path at the cost of possible
breakage of legacy applications.

Add timestamping option SOF_TIMESTAMPING_OPT_TSONLY. For transmit
timestamps, this loops timestamps on top of empty packets.
Doing so reduces the pressure on SO_RCVBUF. Payload inspection and
cmsg reception (aside from timestamps) are no longer possible. This
works together with a follow on patch that allows administrators to
only allow tx timestamping if it does not loop payload or metadata.

====================
switchdev offload flags
This patch series introduces new offload flags for switchdev.
Kernel network subsystems can use this flag to accelerate
network functions by offloading to hw.
I expect that there will be need for subsystem specific feature
flag in the future.
This patch series currently only addresses bridge driver link
attribute offloads to hardware.
Looking at the current state of bridge l2 offload in the kernel,
- flag 'self' is the way to directly manage the bridge device in hw via
the ndo_bridge_setlink/ndo_bridge_getlink calls
- flag 'master' is always used to manage the in kernel bridge devices
via the same ndo_bridge_setlink/ndo_bridge_getlink calls
Today these are used separately. The nic offloads use hwmode "vepa/veb" to go
directly to hw with the "self" flag.
At this point i am trying not to introduce any new user facing flags/attributes.
In the model where we want the kernel bridging to be accelerated with
hardware, we very much want the bridge driver to be involved.
In this proposal,
- The offload flag/bit helps switch asic drivers to indicate that they
accelerate the kernel networking objects/functions
- The user does not have to specify a new flag to do so. A bridge created with
switch asic ports will be accelerated if the switch driver supports it.
- The user can continue to directly manage l2 in nics (ixgbe) using the
existing hwmode/self flags
- It also does not stop users from using the 'self' flag to talk to the
switch asic driver directly
- Involving the bridge driver makes sure the add/del notifications to user
space go out after both kernel and hardware are programmed
(To selectively offload bridge port attributes,
example learning in hw only etc, we can introduce offload bits for
per bridge port flag attribute as in my previous patch
https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/413211/. I have not included that in this
series)
v2
- try a different name for the offload flag/bit
- tries to solve the stacked netdev case by traversing the lowerdev
list to reach the switch port
v3 -
- Tested with bond as bridge port for the stacked device case.
Includes a bond_fix_features change to not ignore the
NETIF_F_HW_NETFUNC_OFFLOAD flag
- Some checkpatch fixes
v4 -
- rename flag to NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD
- add ndo_bridge_setlink/dellink handlers in bond and team drivers as
suggested by jiri.
- introduce default ndo_dflt_netdev_switch_port_bridge_setlink/dellink
handlers that masters can use to call offload api on lowerdevs.

ndo_bridge_setlink/dellink handlers
Currently ndo_bridge_setlink and ndo_bridge_dellink handlers point
to the default switchdev handlers
This follows my bonding driver changes.
I have only compile tested this patch. However similar
bonding code has been tested.

ndo_bridge_setlink/dellink handlers
We want bond to pick up the offload flag if any of its slaves have it.
NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD flag is added to the mask, so that
netdev_increment_features does not ignore it.
This also adds ndo_bridge_setlink and ndo_bridge_dellink handlers.
These currently point to the default handlers provided by the
switchdev api.

This patch adds support to set/del bridge port attributes in hardware from
the bridge driver.
With this, when the user sends a bridge setlink message with no flags or
master flags set,
- the bridge driver ndo_bridge_setlink handler sets settings in the kernel
- calls the swicthdev api to propagate the attrs to the switchdev
hardware
You can still use the self flag to go to the switch hw or switch port
driver directly.
With this, it also makes sure a notification goes out only after the
attributes are set both in the kernel and hw.
The patch calls switchdev api only if BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF is not set.
This is because the offload cases with BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF are handled in
the caller (in rtnetlink.c).

This patch adds two new api's netdev_switch_port_bridge_setlink
and netdev_switch_port_bridge_dellink to offload bridge port attributes
to switch port
(The names of the apis look odd with 'switch_port_bridge',
but am more inclined to change the prefix of the api to something else.
Will take any suggestions).
The api's look at the NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD feature flag to
pass bridge port attributes to the port device.

bridge flags are needed inside ndo_bridge_setlink/dellink handlers to
avoid another call to parse IFLA_AF_SPEC inside these handlers
This is used later in this series

device offloads
This is a high level feature flag for all switch asic offloads
switch drivers set this flag on switch ports. Logical devices like
bridge, bonds, vxlans can inherit this flag from their slaves/ports.
The patch also adds the flag to NETIF_F_ONE_FOR_ALL, so that it gets
propagated to the upperdevices (bridges and bonds).

instance
- In tx_hard_error_bump_tc interrupt, tc should be bumped only when current
device instance is in DMA threshold mode. Check per device xstats.threshold
other than global tc.
- Set per device xstats.threshold to SF_DMA_MODE when current device
instance is set to SF mode.
v2-changes:
- fix ident style

In commit dc9daab226aa ("cxgb4: Added support in debugfs to dump
sge_qinfo") a preprocessor check for CONFIG_CXGB4_DCB got added, which should
have been CONFIG_CHELSIO_T4_DCB. After adding the right preprocessor, build
fails due to missing function ethqset2pinfo. Fixing that as well.
V2: Updated description since the patch also fixes build failure
