Some users are willing to provision huge amounts of memory to be able
to perform reassembly reasonnably well under pressure.
Current memory tracking is using one atomic_t and integers.
Switch to atomic_long_t so that 64bit arches can use more than 2GB,
without any cost for 32bit arches.
Note that this patch avoids an overflow error, if high_thresh was set
to ~2GB, since this test in inet_frag_alloc() was never true :
if (... || frag_mem_limit(nf) > nf->high_thresh)
Tested:
$ echo 16000000000 >/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ipfrag_high_thresh
<frag DDOS>
$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 14705885 memory 16000002880
$ nstat -n ; sleep 1 ; nstat | grep Reas

This refactors ip_expire() since one indentation level is removed.
Note: in the future, we should try hard to avoid the skb_clone()
since this is a serious performance cost.
Under DDOS, the ICMP message wont be sent because of rate limits.
Fact that ip6_expire_frag_queue() does not use skb_clone() is
disturbing too. Presumably IPv6 should have the same
issue than the one we fixed in commit ec4fbd64751d

Some applications still rely on IP fragmentation, and to be fair linux
reassembly unit is not working under any serious load.
It uses static hash tables of 1024 buckets, and up to 128 items per bucket (!!!)
A work queue is supposed to garbage collect items when host is under memory
pressure, and doing a hash rebuild, changing seed used in hash computations.
This work queue blocks softirqs for up to 25 ms when doing a hash rebuild,
occurring every 5 seconds if host is under fire.
Then there is the problem of sharing this hash table for all netns.
It is time to switch to rhashtables, and allocate one of them per netns
to speedup netns dismantle, since this is a critical metric these days.
Lookup is now using RCU. A followup patch will even remove
the refcount hold/release left from prior implementation and save
a couple of atomic operations.
Before this patch, 16 cpus (16 RX queue NIC) could not handle more
than 1 Mpps frags DDOS.
After the patch, I reach 9 Mpps without any tuning, and can use up to 2GB
of storage for the fragments (exact number depends on frags being evicted
after timeout)
$ grep FRAG /proc/net/sockstat
FRAG: inuse 1966916 memory 2140004608
A followup patch will change the limits for 64bit arches.

In order to simplify the API, add a pointer to struct inet_frags.
This will allow us to make things less complex.
These functions no longer have a struct inet_frags parameter :
inet_frag_destroy(struct inet_frag_queue *q /*, struct inet_frags *f */)

In the current code, the range of MSIX vectors allocated for the RDMA
driver is disjoint from the network driver. This creates a problem
for the new firmware ring reservation scheme. The new scheme requires
the reserved completion rings/MSIX vectors to be in a contiguous
range.
Change the logic to allocate RDMA MSIX vectors to be contiguous with
the vectors used by bnxt_en on new firmware using the new scheme.
The new function bnxt_get_num_msix() calculates the exact number of
vectors needed by both drivers.

Currently, the driver code makes some assumptions about the group index
and the map index of rings. This makes the code more difficult to
understand and less flexible.
Improve it by adding the grp_idx and map_idx fields explicitly to the
bnxt_ring_struct as a union. The grp_idx is initialized for each tx ring
and rx agg ring during init. time. We do the same for the map_idx for
each cmpl ring.
The grp_idx ties the tx ring to the ring group. The map_idx is the
doorbell index of the ring. With this new infrastructure, we can change
the ring index mapping scheme easily in the future.

When firmware sends a DMA response to the driver, the last byte of the
message will be set to 1 to indicate that the whole response is valid.
The driver waits for the message to be valid before reading the message.
The firmware spec allows these response messages to increase in
length by adding new fields to the end of these messages. The
older spec's valid location may become a new field in a newer
spec. To guarantee compatibility, the driver should zero the valid
byte before interpreting the entire message so that any new fields not
implemented by the older spec will be read as zero.
For messages that are forwarded to VFs, we need to set the length
and re-instate the valid bit so the VF will see the valid response.

====================
mlx5-updates-2018-03-30
This series contains updates to mlx5 core and mlx5e netdev drivers.
The main highlight of this series is the RX optimizations for striding RQ path,
introduced by Tariq.
First Four patches are trivial misc cleanups.
- Spelling mistake fix
- Dead code removal
- Warning messages
RX optimizations for striding RQ:
1) RX refactoring, cleanups and micro optimizations
- MTU calculation simplifications, obsoletes some WQEs-to-packets translation
functions and helps delete ~60 LOC.
- Do not busy-wait a pending UMR completion.
- post the new values of UMR WQE inline, instead of using a data pointer.
- use pre-initialized structures to save calculations in datapath.
2) Use linear SKB in Striding RQ "build_skb", (Using linear SKB has many advantages):
- Saves a memcpy of the headers.
- No page-boundary checks in datapath.
- No filler CQEs.
- Significantly smaller CQ.
- SKB data continuously resides in linear part, and not split to
small amount (linear part) and large amount (fragment).
This saves datapath cycles in driver and improves utilization
of SKB fragments in GRO.
- The fragments of a resulting GRO SKB follow the IP forwarding
assumption of equal-size fragments.
implementation details:
HW writes the packets to the beginning of a stride,
i.e. does not keep headroom. To overcome this we make sure we can
extend backwards and use the last bytes of stride i-1.
Extra care is needed for stride 0 as it has no preceding stride.
We make sure headroom bytes are available by shifting the buffer
pointer passed to HW by headroom bytes.
This configuration now becomes default, whenever capable.
Of course, this implies turning LRO off.
Performance testing:
ConnectX-5, single core, single RX ring, default MTU.
UDP packet rate, early drop in TC layer:
--------------------------------------------
| pkt size | before | after | ratio |
--------------------------------------------
| 1500byte | 4.65 Mpps | 5.96 Mpps | 1.28x |
| 500byte | 5.23 Mpps | 5.97 Mpps | 1.14x |
| 64byte | 5.94 Mpps | 5.96 Mpps | 1.00x |
--------------------------------------------
TCP streams: ~20% gain
3) Support XDP over Striding RQ:
Now that linear SKB is supported over Striding RQ,
we can support XDP by setting stride size to PAGE_SIZE
and headroom to XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM.
Striding RQ is capable of a higher packet-rate than
conventional RQ.
Performance testing:
ConnectX-5, 24 rings, default MTU.
CQE compression ON (to reduce completions BW in PCI).
XDP_DROP packet rate:
--------------------------------------------------
| pkt size | XDP rate | 100GbE linerate | pct% |
--------------------------------------------------
| 64byte | 126.2 Mpps | 148.0 Mpps | 85% |
| 128byte | 80.0 Mpps | 84.8 Mpps | 94% |
| 256byte | 42.7 Mpps | 42.7 Mpps | 100% |
| 512byte | 23.4 Mpps | 23.4 Mpps | 100% |
--------------------------------------------------
4) Remove mlx5 page_ref bulking in Striding RQ and use page_ref_inc only when needed.
Without this bulking, we have:
- no atomic ops on WQE allocation or free
- one atomic op per SKB
- In the default MTU configuration (1500, stride size is 2K),
the non-bulking method execute 2 atomic ops as before
- For larger MTUs with stride size of 4K, non-bulking method
executes only a single op.
- For XDP (stride size of 4K, no SKBs), non-bulking have no atomic ops per packet at all.
Performance testing:
ConnectX-5, Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2680 v3 @ 2.50GHz.
Single core packet rate (64 bytes).
Early drop in TC: no degradation.
XDP_DROP:
before: 14,270,188 pps
after: 20,503,603 pps, 43% improvement.

This function calls call_netdevice_notifier(), which also
may take net_rwsem. So, we can't use net_rwsem here.
This patch makes callers of this functions take pernet_ops_rwsem,
like register_netdevice_notifier() does. This will protect
the modifications of net_namespace_list, and allows notifiers
to take it (they won't have to care about context).
Since __rtnl_link_unregister() is used on module load
and unload (which are not frequent operations), this looks
for me better, than make all call_netdevice_notifier()
always executing in "protected net_namespace_list" context.
Also, this fixes the problem we had a deal in 328fbe747ad4
"Close race between {un, }register_netdevice_notifier and ...",

max self_str + 1 + max if_name + 1 + max peer_str + 1 + max if_name =
16 + 1 + 15 + 1 + 16 + 1 + 15 = 65
Since we also need space for a trailing zero we now set MAX_LINK_NAME

Just to be on the safe side we also replace the sprintf() call with

With the new RB tree structure for service ranges it becomes possible to
solve an old problem; - we can now allow overlapping service ranges in
the table.
When inserting a new service range to the tree, we use 'lower' as primary
key, and when necessary 'upper' as secondary key.
Since there may now be multiple service ranges matching an indicated
'lower' value, we must also add the 'upper' value to the functions
used for removing publications, so that the correct, corresponding
range item can be found.
These changes guarantee that a well-formed publication/withdrawal item
from a peer node never will be rejected, and make it possible to
eliminate the problematic backlog functionality we currently have for
handling such cases.

The current design of the binding table has an unnecessary memory
consuming and complex data structure. It aggregates the service range
items into an array, which is expanded by a factor two every time it
becomes too small to hold a new item. Furthermore, the arrays never
shrink when the number of ranges diminishes.
We now replace this array with an RB tree that is holding the range
items as tree nodes, each range directly holding a list of bindings.
This, along with a few name changes, improves both readability and
volume of the code, as well as reducing memory consumption and hopefully
improving cache hit rate.

net: bridge: MTU handling changes
As previously discussed the recent changes break some setups and could lead
to packet drops. Thus the first patch reverts the behaviour for the bridge
to follow the minimum MTU but also keeps the ability to set the MTU to the
maximum (out of all ports) if vlan filtering is enabled. Patch 02 is the
bigger change in behaviour - we've always had trouble when configuring
bridges and their MTU which is auto tuning on port events
(add/del/changemtu), which means config software needs to chase it and fix
it after each such event, after patch 02 we allow the user to configure any
MTU (ETH_MIN/MAX limited) but once that is done the bridge stops auto
tuning and relies on the user to keep the MTU correct.
This should be compatible with cases that don't touch the MTU (or set it
to the same value), while allowing to configure the MTU and not worry
about it changing afterwards.
The patches are intentionally split like this, so that if they get accepted
and there are any complaints patch 02 can be reverted.

As Roopa noted today the biggest source of problems when configuring
bridge and ports is that the bridge MTU keeps changing automatically on
port events (add/del/changemtu). That leads to inconsistent behaviour
and network config software needs to chase the MTU and fix it on each
such event. Let's improve on that situation and allow for the user to
set any MTU within ETH_MIN/MAX limits, but once manually configured it
is the user's responsibility to keep it correct afterwards.
In case the MTU isn't manually set - the behaviour reverts to the
previous and the bridge follows the minimum MTU.

Recently the bridge was changed to automatically set maximum MTU on port
events (add/del/changemtu) when vlan filtering is enabled, but that
actually changes behaviour in a way which breaks some setups and can lead
to packet drops. In order to still allow that maximum to be set while being
compatible, we add the ability for the user to tune the bridge MTU up to
the maximum when vlan filtering is enabled, but that has to be done
explicitly and all port events (add/del/changemtu) lead to resetting that
MTU to the minimum as before.

====================
net: thunderx: implement DMAC filtering support
By default CN88XX BGX accepts all incoming multicast and broadcast
packets and filtering is disabled. The nic driver doesn't provide
an ability to change such behaviour.
This series is to implement DMAC filtering management for CN88XX
nic driver allowing user to enable/disable filtering and configure
specific MAC addresses to filter traffic.
Changes from v1:
build issues:
- update code in order to address compiler warnings;
checkpatch.pl reported issues:
- update code in order to fit 80 symbols length;
- update commit descriptions in order to fit 80 symbols length;

The ndo_set_rx_mode() is called from atomic context which causes
messages response timeouts while VF to PF communication via MSIx.
To get rid of that we're copy passed mc list, parse flags and queue
handling of kernel request to ordered workqueue.
