====================
Reduce cache miss for snmp_fold_field
In a PowerPc server with large cpu number(160), besides commit
a3a773726c9f ("net: Optimize snmp stat aggregation by walking all
the percpu data at once"), I watched several other snmp_fold_field
callsites which would cause high cache miss rate.
test source code:
================
My simple test case, which read from the procfs items endlessly:
/***********************************************************/
int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
int i;
int fd = -1 ;
int rdsize = 0;
char buf[LINELEN+1];
buf[LINELEN] = 0;
memset(buf,0,LINELEN);
if(1 >= argc) {
printf("file name empty\n");
return -1;
}
fd = open(argv[1], O_RDWR, 0644);
if(0 > fd){
printf("open error\n");
return -2;
}
for(i=0;i<0xffffffff;i++) {
while(0 < (rdsize = read(fd,buf,LINELEN))){
//nothing here
}
lseek(fd, 0, SEEK_SET);
}
close(fd);
return 0;
}
/**********************************************************/
compile and run:
================
gcc test.c -o test
perf stat -d -e cache-misses ./test /proc/net/snmp
perf stat -d -e cache-misses ./test /proc/net/snmp6
perf stat -d -e cache-misses ./test /proc/net/sctp/snmp

====================
rxrpc: Fixes and adjustments
This set of patches contains some fixes and adjustments:
(1) Connections for exclusive calls are being reused because the check to
work out whether to set RXRPC_CONN_DONT_REUSE is checking where the
parameters will be copied to (but haven't yet).
(2) Make Tx loss-injection go through the normal return, so the state gets
set correctly for what the code thinks it has done.
Note lost Tx packets in the tx_data trace rather than the skb
tracepoint.
(3) Activate channels according to the current state from within the
channel_lock to avoid someone changing it on us.
(4) Reduce the local endpoint's services list to a single pointer as we
don't allow service AF_RXRPC sockets to share UDP ports with other
AF_RXRPC sockets, so there can't be more than one element in the list.
(5) Request more ACKs in slow-start mode to help monitor the state driving
the window configuration.
(6) Display the serial number of the packet being ACK'd rather than the
ACK packet's own serial number in the congestion trace as this can be
related to other entries in the trace.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Global (1) cosmetics
The Global (1) internal SMI device of Marvell switches is a set of
registers providing support to different units for MAC addresses (ATU),
VLANs (VTU), PHY polling (PPU), etc.
Chips (like 88E6060) may use a different address for it, or have
subtleties in the units (e.g. different number of databases, changing
how registers must be accessed), making it hard to maintain properly.
This patchset is a first step to polish the Global (1) support, with no
functional changes though. Here's basically what it does:
- add helpers to access Global1 registers (same for Global2)
- remove a few family checks (VTU/STU FID registers)
- s/mv88e6xxx_vtu_stu_entry/mv88e6xxx_vtu_entry/
- add a per-chip mv88e6xxx_ops structure of function pointers:
struct mv88e6xxx_ops {
int (*get_eeprom)(struct mv88e6xxx_chip *chip,
struct ethtool_eeprom *eeprom, u8 *data);
int (*set_eeprom)(struct mv88e6xxx_chip *chip,
struct ethtool_eeprom *eeprom, u8 *data);
int (*set_switch_mac)(struct mv88e6xxx_chip *chip, u8 *addr);
int (*phy_read)(struct mv88e6xxx_chip *chip, int addr, int reg,
u16 *val);
int (*phy_write)(struct mv88e6xxx_chip *chip, int addr, int reg,
u16 val);
};
Future patchsets will add ATU/VTU ops, software reset, etc.

The Global (1) internal SMI device is an extended set of registers
containing ATU, PPU, VTU, STU, etc.
It is present on every switches, usually at SMI address 0x1B. But old

is erroneous.

Reduce the rxrpc_local::services list to just a pointer as we don't permit
multiple service endpoints to bind to a single transport endpoints (this is
excluded by rxrpc_lookup_local()).
The reason we don't allow this is that if you send a request to an AFS
filesystem service, it will try to talk back to your cache manager on the
port you sent from (this is how file change notifications are handled). To
prevent someone from stealing your CM callbacks, we don't let AF_RXRPC
sockets share a UDP socket if at least one of them has a service bound.

In rxrpc_activate_channels(), the connection cache state is checked outside
of the lock, which means it can change whilst we're waking calls up,
thereby changing whether or not we're allowed to wake calls up.
Fix this by moving the check inside the locked region. The check to see if
all the channels are currently busy can stay outside of the locked region.
Whilst we're at it:
(1) Split the locked section out into its own function so that we can call
it from other places in a later patch.
(2) Determine the mask of channels dependent on the state as we're going
to add another state in a later patch that will restrict the number of
simultaneous calls to 1 on a connection.

In rxrpc_send_data_packet() make the loss-injection path return through the
same code as the transmission path so that the RTT determination is
initiated and any future timer shuffling will be done, despite the packet
having been binned.
Whilst we're at it:
(1) Add to the tx_data tracepoint an indication of whether or not we're
retransmitting a data packet.
(2) When we're deciding whether or not to request an ACK, rather than
checking if we're in fast-retransmit mode check instead if we're
retransmitting.
(3) Don't invoke the lose_skb tracepoint when losing a Tx packet as we're
not altering the sk_buff refcount nor are we just seeing it after
getting it off the Tx list.
(4) The rxrpc_skb_tx_lost note is then no longer used so remove it.
(5) rxrpc_lose_skb() no longer needs to deal with rxrpc_skb_tx_lost.

Exclusive connections are currently reusable (which they shouldn't be)
because rxrpc_alloc_client_connection() checks the exclusive flag in the
rxrpc_connection struct before it's initialised from the function
parameters. This means that the DONT_REUSE flag doesn't get set.
Fix this by checking the function parameters for the exclusive flag.

Add basic ACPI support to the Qualcomm Technologies EMAC driver
This patch series adds support to the EMAC driver for extracting addresses,
interrupts, and some _DSDs (properties) from ACPI. The first two patches
clean up the code, and the third patch adds ACPI-specific functionality.
The first patch fixes a bug with handling the platform_device for the
internal PHY. This phy is treated as a separate device in both DT and
ACPI, but since the platform is not released automatically when the
driver unloads, managed functions like devm_ioremap_resource cannot be
used.
The second patch replaces of_get_mac_address with its platform-independent
equivalent device_get_mac_address.
The third patch parses the ACPI tables to obtain the platform_device for
the primary EMAC node ("QCOM8070") and the internal phy node ("QCOM8071").

Add support for reading addresses, interrupts, and _DSD properties
from ACPI tables, just like with device tree. The HID for the
EMAC device itself is QCOM8070. The internal PHY is represented
by a child node with a HID of QCOM8071.
The EMAC also has some complex clock initialization requirements
that are not represented by this patch. This will be addressed
in a future patch.

on driver release.

Suppose you have a map array value that is something like this
struct foo {
unsigned iter;
int array[SOME_CONSTANT];
};
You can easily insert this into an array, but you cannot modify the contents of
foo->array[] after the fact. This is because we have no way to verify we won't
go off the end of the array at verification time. This patch provides a start
for this work. We accomplish this by keeping track of a minimum and maximum
value a register could be while we're checking the code. Then at the time we
try to do an access into a MAP_VALUE we verify that the maximum offset into that
region is a valid access into that memory region. So in practice, code such as
this
unsigned index = 0;
if (foo->iter >= SOME_CONSTANT)
foo->iter = index;
else
index = foo->iter++;
foo->array[index] = bar;
would be allowed, as we can verify that index will always be between 0 and
SOME_CONSTANT-1. If you wish to use signed values you'll have to have an extra
check to make sure the index isn't less than 0, or do something like index %=
SOME_CONSTANT.

* disable RNG by default

The current code changes txhash (flowlables) on every retransmitted
SYN/ACK, but only after the 2nd retransmitted SYN and only after
tcp_retries1 RTO retransmits.
With this patch:
1) txhash is changed with every SYN retransmits
2) txhash is changed with every RTO.
The result is that we can start re-routing around failed (or very
congested paths) as soon as possible. Otherwise application health
checks may fail and the connection may be terminated before we start
to change txhash.
v4: Removed sysctl, txhash is changed for all RTOs

Firmware is running watchdog timer for tracking copy engine ring index
and write index. Whenever both indices are stuck at same location for
given duration, watchdog will be trigger to assert target. While
updating copy engine destination ring write index, driver ensures that
write index will not be same as read index by finding delta between these
two indices (CE_RING_DELTA).
HTT target to host copy engine (CE5) is special case where ring buffers
will be reused and delta check is not applied while updating write index.
In rare scenario, whenever CE5 ring is full, both indices will be referring
same location and this is causing CE ring stuck issue as explained
above. This issue is originally reported on IPQ4019 during long hour stress
testing and during veriwave max clients testsuites. The same issue is
also observed in other chips as well. Fix this by ensuring that write
index is one less than read index which means that full ring is
available for receiving data.

Jiri Pirko says:
====================
fib offload: switch to notifier
The goal of this patchset is to allow driver to propagate all prefixes
configured in kernel down HW. This is necessary for routing to work
as expected. If we don't do that HW might forward prefixes known to kernel
incorrectly. Take an example when default route is set in switch HW and there
is an IP address set on a management (non-switch) port.
Currently, only FIB entries related to the switch port netdev are
offloaded using switchdev ops. This model is not extendable so the
first patch introduces a replacement: notifier to propagate FIB entry
additions and removals to whoever is interested.
The second patch introduces couple of helpers to deal with RTNH_F_OFFLOAD
flags. Currently it is set in switchdev core. There the assumption is
that only one offload device exists. But for FIB notifier, we assume
multiple offload devices. So the patch introduces a per FIB entry
reference counter and helpers use it in order to achieve this:
0 means RTNH_F_OFFLOAD is not set, no device offloads this entry
n means RTNH_F_OFFLOAD is set and the entry is offloaded by n devices
Patches 3 and 4 convert mlxsw and rocker to adopt this new way, registering
one notifier block for each asic instance. Both of these patches also
implement internal "abort" mechanism.
Using switchdev ops, "abort" is called by switchdev core whenever there is
an error during FIB entry add offload. This leads to removal of all
offloaded entries on system by fib_trie code.
Now the new notifier assumes the driver takes care of the abort action.
Here's why:
1) The fact that one HW cannot offload an entry does not mean that the
others can't do it. So let only one entity to abort and leave the rest
to work happily.
2) The driver knows what to in order to properly abort. For example,
currently abort is broken for mlxsw, as for Spectrum there is a need
to set 0.0.0.0/0 trap in RALUE register.
The fifth patch removes the old, no longer used FIB offload infrastructure.
The last patch reflects the changes into switchdev documentation file.

This is to reflect the change of FIB offload infrastructure from
switchdev objects to FIB notifier.

Since this is now taken care of by FIB notifier, remove the code, with
all unused dependencies.

Until now, in order to offload a FIB entry to HW we use switchdev op.
Use the newly introduced FIB notifier infrasturucture to process
FIB entries to offload the in HW.
Abort mechanism is now handled within the rocker driver.

Until now, in order to offload a FIB entry to HW we use switchdev op.
However that has limits. Mainly in case we need to make the HW aware of
all route prefixes configured in kernel. HW needs to know those in order
to properly trap appropriate packets and pass the to kernel to do
the forwarding. Abort mechanism is now handled within the mlxsw driver.

These helpers are to be used in case someone offloads the FIB entry. The
result is that if the entry is offloaded to at least one device, the
offload flag is set.

This allows to pass information about added/deleted FIB entries/rules to
whoever is interested. This is done in a very similar way as devinet
notifies address additions/removals.
