  • The statistics unit on the mv88e6390 needs the histogram mode to be

  • The MV88E6390 has a control register for what the histogram statistics
    actually contain. This means the stat_snapshot method should not set
    this information. So implement the 6390 stats_snapshot function without
    these bits.

  • Current geneve implementation has two separate cases to handle.
    1. netdev xmit
    2. LWT xmit.

    In case of netdev, geneve configuration is stored in various
    struct geneve_dev members. For example geneve_addr, ttl, tos,
    label, flags, dst_cache, etc. For LWT ip_tunnel_info is passed
    to the device in ip_tunnel_info.

    Following patch uses ip_tunnel_info struct to store almost all
    of configuration of a geneve netdevice. This allows us to unify
    most of geneve driver code around ip_tunnel_info struct.
    This dramatically simplify geneve code, since it does not
    need to handle two different configuration cases. Removes
    duplicate code, single code path can handle either type
    of geneve devices.

    tcp: make undo_cwnd mandatory for congestion modules

    highspeed, illinois, scalable, veno and yeah congestion control algorithms
    don't provide a 'cwnd_undo' function. This makes the stack default to a
    'reno undo' which doubles cwnd. However, the ssthresh implementation of
    these algorithms do not halve the slowstart threshold. This causes similar
    issue as the one fixed for dctcp in ce6dd23329b1e ("dctcp: avoid bogus
    doubling of cwnd after loss").

    In light of this it seems better to remove the fallback and make undo_cwnd
    mandatory.

    First patch fixes those spots where reno undo seems incorrect by providing
    .cwnd_undo functions, second patch removes the fallback.
    ====================

  • The undo_cwnd fallback in the stack doubles cwnd based on ssthresh,
    which un-does reno halving behaviour.

    It seems more appropriate to let congctl algorithms pair .ssthresh
    and .undo_cwnd properly. Add a 'tcp_reno_undo_cwnd' function and wire it
    up for all congestion algorithms that used to rely on the fallback.

  • congestion control algorithms that do not halve cwnd in their .ssthresh
    should provide a .cwnd_undo rather than rely on current fallback which
    assumes reno halving (and thus doubles the cwnd).

    All of these do 'something else' in their .ssthresh implementation, thus
    store the cwnd on loss and provide .undo_cwnd to restore it again.

    A followup patch will remove the fallback and all algorithms will
    need to provide a .cwnd_undo function.

    bridge: add support for IGMPv3 and MLDv2 querier

    This patch-set adds support for IGMPv3 and MLDv2 querier in the bridge.
    Two new options which can be toggled via netlink and sysfs are added that
    control the version per-bridge:
    multicast_igmp_version - default 2, can be set to 3
    multicast_mld_version - default 1, can be set to 2 (this option is
    disabled if CONFIG_IPV6=n)

    Note that the names do not include "querier", I think that these options
    can be re-used later as more IGMPv3 support is added to the bridge so we
    can avoid adding more options to switch between v2 and v3 behaviour.

    The set uses the already existing br_ip{4,6}_multicast_alloc_query
    functions and adds the appropriate header based on the chosen version.

    For the initial support I have removed the compatibility implementation
    (RFC3376 sec 7.3.1, 7.3.2; RFC3810 sec 8.3.1, 8.3.2), because there are
    some details that we need to sort out.

  • While stressing a 40Gbit mlx4 NIC with busy polling, I found false
    sharing in mlx4 driver that can be easily avoided.

    This patch brings an additional 7 % performance improvement in UDP_RR
    workload.

    1) If we received no frame during one mlx4_en_process_rx_cq()
    invocation, no need to call mlx4_cq_set_ci() and/or dirty ring->cons

    2) Do not refill rx buffers if we have plenty of them.
    This avoids false sharing and allows some bulk/batch optimizations.
    Page allocator and its locks will thank us.

    Finally, mlx4_en_poll_rx_cq() should not return 0 if it determined
    cpu handling NIC IRQ should be changed. We should return budget-1
    instead, to not fool net_rx_action() and its netdev_budget.

  • There are multiple issues in mlx5e_xdp_set():

    1) The batched bpf_prog_add() is currently not checked for errors. When
    doing so, it should be done at an earlier point in time to makes sure
    that we cannot fail anymore at the time we want to set the program for
    each channel. The batched refs short-cut can only be performed when we
    don't need to perform a reset for changing the rq type and the device
    was in opened state. In case the device was not in opened state, then
    the next mlx5e_open_locked() will aquire the refs from the control prog
    via mlx5e_create_rq(), same when we need to perform a reset.

    2) When swapping the priv->xdp_prog, then no extra reference count must be
    taken since we got that from call path via dev_change_xdp_fd() already.
    Otherwise, we'd never be able to release the program. Also, bpf_prog_add()
    without checking the return code could fail.

  • In mlx5e_create_rq(), when creating a new queue, we call bpf_prog_add() but
    without checking the return value. bpf_prog_add() can fail since 92117d8443bc
    ("bpf: fix refcnt overflow"), so we really must check it. Take the reference
    right when we assign it to the rq from priv->xdp_prog, and just drop the
    reference on error path. Destruction in mlx5e_destroy_rq() looks good, though.

  • 1) cast to "int" is unnecessary:
    u8 will be promoted to int before decrementing,
    small positive numbers fit into "int", so their values won't be changed
    during promotion.

    Once everything is int including loop counters, signedness doesn't
    matter: 32-bit operations will stay 32-bit operations.

    But! Someone tried to make this loop smart by making everything of
    the same type apparently in an attempt to optimise it.
    Do the optimization, just differently.
    Do the cast where it matters. :^)

  • ->nla_len is unsigned entity (it's length after all) and u16,
