2020-11-11net: evaluate net.ipvX.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdownVincent Bernat
Introduced in 0eeb075fad73, the "ignore_routes_with_linkdown" sysctl ignores a route whose interface is down. It is provided as a per-interface sysctl. However, while a "all" variant is exposed, it was a noop since it was never evaluated. We use the usual "or" logic for this kind of sysctls. Tested with: ip link add type veth # veth0 + veth1 ip link add type veth # veth1 + veth2 ip link set up dev veth0 ip link set up dev veth1 # link-status paired with veth0 ip link set up dev veth2 ip link set up dev veth3 # link-status paired with veth2 # First available path ip -4 addr add 203.0.113.${uts#H}/24 dev veth0 ip -6 addr add 2001:db8:1::${uts#H}/64 dev veth0 # Second available path ip -4 addr add 192.0.2.${uts#H}/24 dev veth2 ip -6 addr add 2001:db8:2::${uts#H}/64 dev veth2 # More specific route through first path ip -4 route add 198.51.100.0/25 via 203.0.113.254 # via veth0 ip -6 route add 2001:db8:3::/56 via 2001:db8:1::ff # via veth0 # Less specific route through second path ip -4 route add 198.51.100.0/24 via 192.0.2.254 # via veth2 ip -6 route add 2001:db8:3::/48 via 2001:db8:2::ff # via veth2 # H1: enable on "all" # H2: enable on "veth0" for v in ipv4 ipv6; do case $uts in H1) sysctl -qw net.${v}.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown=1 ;; H2) sysctl -qw net.${v}.conf.veth0.ignore_routes_with_linkdown=1 ;; esac done set -xe # When veth0 is up, best route is through veth0 ip -o route get 198.51.100.1 | grep -Fw veth0 ip -o route get 2001:db8:3::1 | grep -Fw veth0 # When veth0 is down, best route should be through veth2 on H1/H2, # but on veth0 on H2 ip link set down dev veth1 # down veth0 ip route show [ $uts != H3 ] || ip -o route get 198.51.100.1 | grep -Fw veth0 [ $uts != H3 ] || ip -o route get 2001:db8:3::1 | grep -Fw veth0 [ $uts = H3 ] || ip -o route get 198.51.100.1 | grep -Fw veth2 [ $uts = H3 ] || ip -o route get 2001:db8:3::1 | grep -Fw veth2 Without this patch, the two last lines would fail on H1 (the one using the "all" sysctl). With the patch, everything succeeds as expected. Also document the sysctl in `ip-sysctl.rst`.

2020-11-06netdevsim: Add devlink resource for nexthopsIdo Schimmel
The Spectrum ASIC has a dedicated table where nexthops (i.e., adjacency entries) are populated. The size of this table can be controlled via devlink-resource. Add such a resource to netdevsim so that its occupancy will reflect the number of nexthop objects currently programmed to the device. By limiting the size of the resource, error paths could be exercised and tested. Example output: # devlink resource show netdevsim/netdevsim10 netdevsim/netdevsim10: name IPv4 size unlimited unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none resources: name fib size unlimited occ 4 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none name fib-rules size unlimited occ 3 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none name IPv6 size unlimited unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none resources: name fib size unlimited occ 1 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none name fib-rules size unlimited occ 2 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none name nexthops size unlimited occ 0 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables none Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2020-10-30sctp: enable udp tunneling socksXin Long
This patch is to enable udp tunneling socks by calling sctp_udp_sock_start() in sctp_ctrlsock_init(), and sctp_udp_sock_stop() in sctp_ctrlsock_exit(). Also add sysctl udp_port to allow changing the listening sock's port by users. Wit this patch, the whole sctp over udp feature can be enabled and used. v1->v2: - Also update ctl_sock udp_port in proc_sctp_do_udp_port() where netns udp_port gets changed. v2->v3: - Call htons() when setting sk udp_port from netns udp_port. v3->v4: - Not call sctp_udp_sock_start() when new_value is 0. - Add udp_port entry in ip-sysctl.rst. v4->v5: - Not call sctp_udp_sock_start/stop() in sctp_ctrlsock_init/exit(). - Improve the description of udp_port in ip-sysctl.rst.

2020-10-30sctp: add encap_port for netns sock asoc and transportXin Long
encap_port is added as per netns/sock/assoc/transport, and the latter one's encap_port inherits the former one's by default. The transport's encap_port value would mostly decide if one packet should go out with udp encapsulated or not. This patch also allows users to set netns' encap_port by sysctl. v1->v2: - Change to define encap_port as __be16 for sctp_sock, asoc and transport. v2->v3: - No change. v3->v4: - Add 'encap_port' entry in ip-sysctl.rst. v4->v5: - Improve the description of encap_port in ip-sysctl.rst.

2020-10-29wimax: move out to stagingArnd Bergmann
There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases. According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether. As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack. NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the www.linuxwimax.org site had already shut down earlier. WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks ("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the only driver using the kernel's wimax stack. Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets to that. Only minimal changes are made to the source files, in order to make it possible to port patches across the move. Also remove the MAINTAINERS entry that refers to a broken mailing list and website.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: - Add redirect_neigh() BPF packet redirect helper, allowing to limit stack traversal in common container configs and improving TCP back-pressure. Daniel reports ~10Gbps => ~15Gbps single stream TCP performance gain. - Expand netlink policy support and improve policy export to user space. (Ge)netlink core performs request validation according to declared policies. Expand the expressiveness of those policies (min/max length and bitmasks). Allow dumping policies for particular commands. This is used for feature discovery by user space (instead of kernel version parsing or trial and error). - Support IGMPv3/MLDv2 multicast listener discovery protocols in bridge. - Allow more than 255 IPv4 multicast interfaces. - Add support for Type of Service (ToS) reflection in SYN/SYN-ACK packets of TCPv6. - In Multi-patch TCP (MPTCP) support concurrent transmission of data on multiple subflows in a load balancing scenario. Enhance advertising addresses via the RM_ADDR/ADD_ADDR options. - Support SMC-Dv2 version of SMC, which enables multi-subnet deployments. - Allow more calls to same peer in RxRPC. - Support two new Controller Area Network (CAN) protocols - CAN-FD and ISO 15765-2:2016. - Add xfrm/IPsec compat layer, solving the 32bit user space on 64bit kernel problem. - Add TC actions for implementing MPLS L2 VPNs. - Improve nexthop code - e.g. handle various corner cases when nexthop objects are removed from groups better, skip unnecessary notifications and make it easier to offload nexthops into HW by converting to a blocking notifier. - Support adding and consuming TCP header options by BPF programs, opening the doors for easy experimental and deployment-specific TCP option use. - Reorganize TCP congestion control (CC) initialization to simplify life of TCP CC implemented in BPF. - Add support for shipping BPF programs with the kernel and loading them early on boot via the User Mode Driver mechanism, hence reusing all the user space infra we have. - Support sleepable BPF programs, initially targeting LSM and tracing. - Add bpf_d_path() helper for returning full path for given 'struct path'. - Make bpf_tail_call compatible with bpf-to-bpf calls. - Allow BPF programs to call map_update_elem on sockmaps. - Add BPF Type Format (BTF) support for type and enum discovery, as well as support for using BTF within the kernel itself (current use is for pretty printing structures). - Support listing and getting information about bpf_links via the bpf syscall. - Enhance kernel interfaces around NIC firmware update. Allow specifying overwrite mask to control if settings etc. are reset during update; report expected max time operation may take to users; support firmware activation without machine reboot incl. limits of how much impact reset may have (e.g. dropping link or not). - Extend ethtool configuration interface to report IEEE-standard counters, to limit the need for per-vendor logic in user space. - Adopt or extend devlink use for debug, monitoring, fw update in many drivers (dsa loop, ice, ionic, sja1105, qed, mlxsw, mv88e6xxx, dpaa2-eth). - In mlxsw expose critical and emergency SFP module temperature alarms. Refactor port buffer handling to make the defaults more suitable and support setting these values explicitly via the DCBNL interface. - Add XDP support for Intel's igb driver. - Support offloading TC flower classification and filtering rules to mscc_ocelot switches. - Add PTP support for Marvell Octeontx2 and PP2.2 hardware, as well as fixed interval period pulse generator and one-step timestamping in dpaa-eth. - Add support for various auth offloads in WiFi APs, e.g. SAE (WPA3) offload. - Add Lynx PHY/PCS MDIO module, and convert various drivers which have this HW to use it.

2020-09-25devlink: introduce flash update overwrite maskJacob Keller
Sections of device flash may contain settings or device identifying information. When performing a flash update, it is generally expected that these settings and identifiers are not overwritten. However, it may sometimes be useful to allow overwriting these fields when performing a flash update. Some examples include, 1) customizing the initial device config on first programming, such as overwriting default device identifying information, or 2) reverting a device configuration to known good state provided in the new firmware image, or 3) in case it is suspected that current firmware logic for managing the preservation of fields during an update is broken. Although some devices are able to completely separate these types of settings and fields into separate components, this is not true for all hardware. To support controlling this behavior, a new DEVLINK_ATTR_FLASH_UPDATE_OVERWRITE_MASK is defined. This is an nla_bitfield32 which will define what subset of fields in a component should be overwritten during an update. If no bits are specified, or of the overwrite mask is not provided, then an update should not overwrite anything, and should maintain the settings and identifiers as they are in the previous image. If the overwrite mask has the DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_SETTINGS bit set, then the device should be configured to overwrite any of the settings in the requested component with settings found in the provided image. Similarly, if the DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_IDENTIFIERS bit is set, the device should be configured to overwrite any device identifiers in the requested component with the identifiers from the image. Multiple overwrite modes may be combined to indicate that a combination of the set of fields that should be overwritten. Drivers which support the new overwrite mask must set the DEVLINK_SUPPORT_FLASH_UPDATE_OVERWRITE_MASK in the supported_flash_update_params field of their devlink_ops.

This is a problem because we are using two separate enums for userspace to kernel and kernel to userspace message types so that this ETHTOOL_MSG_TUNNEL_INFO_GET (28) collides with ETHTOOL_MSG_CABLE_TEST_TDR_NTF which is what message type 28 means for kernel to userspace messages.

Currently drivers have to report their pause frames statistics via ethtool -S, and there is a wide variety of names used for these statistics. Add the two statistics defined in IEEE 802.3x to the standard API. Create a new ethtool request header flag for including statistics in the response to GET commands. Always create the ETHTOOL_A_PAUSE_STATS nest in replies when flag is set. Testing if driver declares the op is not a reliable way of checking if any stats will actually be included and therefore we don't want to give the impression that presence of ETHTOOL_A_PAUSE_STATS indicates driver support. Note that this patch does not include PFC counters, which may fit better in dcbnl?

2020-09-07net: tighten the definition of interface statisticsJakub Kicinski
This patch is born out of an investigation into which IEEE statistics correspond to which struct rtnl_link_stats64 members. Turns out that there seems to be reasonable consensus on the matter, among many drivers. To save others the time (and it took more time than I'm comfortable admitting) I'm adding comments referring to IEEE attributes to struct rtnl_link_stats64. Up until now we had two forms of documentation for stats - in Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-net-statistics and the comments on struct rtnl_link_stats64 itself. While the former is very cautious in defining the expected behavior, the latter feel quite dated and may not be easy to understand for modern day driver author (e.g. rx_over_errors). At the same time modern systems are far more complex and once obvious definitions lost their clarity. For example - does rx_packet count at the MAC layer (aFramesReceivedOK)? packets processed correctly by hardware? received by the driver? or maybe received by the stack? I tried to clarify the expectations, further clarifications from others are very welcome. The part hardest to untangle is rx_over_errors vs rx_fifo_errors vs rx_missed_errors. After much deliberation I concluded that for modern HW only two of the counters will make sense. The distinction between internal FIFO overflow and packets dropped due to back-pressure from the host is likely too implementation (driver and device) specific to expose in the standard stats. Now - which two of those counters we select to use is anyone's pick: sysfs documentation suggests rx_over_errors counts packets which did not fit into buffers due to MTU being too small, which I reused. There don't seem to be many modern drivers using it (well, CAN drivers seem to love this statistic). Of the remaining two I picked rx_missed_errors to report device drops. bnxt reports it and it's folded into "drop"s in procfs (while rx_fifo_errors is an error, and modern devices usually receive the frame OK, they just can't admit it into the pipeline). Of the drivers I looked at only AMD Lance-like and NS8390-like use all three of these counters. rx_missed_errors counts missed frames, rx_over_errors counts overflow events, and rx_fifo_errors counts frames which were truncated because they didn't fit into buffers. This suggests that rx_fifo_errors may be the correct stat for truncated packets, but I'd think a FIFO stat counting truncated packets would be very confusing to a modern reader. v2: - add driver developer notes about ethtool stat count and reset - replace Ethernet with IEEE 802.3 to better indicate source of attrs - mention byte counters don't count FCS - clarify RX counter is from device to host - drop "sightly" from sysfs paragraph - add examples of ethtool stats - s/incoming/received/ s/incoming/transmitted/ Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2020-08-19Documentation/networking: update l2tp docsJames Chapman
Kernel documentation of L2TP has not been kept up to date and lacks coverage of some L2TP APIs. While addressing this, refactor to improve readability, separating the parts which focus on user APIs and internal implementation into sections. Changes in v2: - fix checkpatch warnings about trailing whitespace and long lines Signed-off-by: James Chapman <jchapman@katalix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
