net: thunder_bgx: Fix netdev structure allocation

2024-08-15T10:29:33Z

Commit 94833addfaba ("net: thunderx: Unembed netdev structure") had a go at dynamically allocating the netdev structures for the thunderx_bgx driver. This change results in my ThunderX box catching fire (to be fair, it is what it does best). The issues with this change are that: - bgx_lmac_enable() is called *after* bgx_acpi_register_phy() and bgx_init_of_phy(), both expecting netdev to be a valid pointer. - bgx_init_of_phy() populates the MAC addresses for *all* LMACs attached to a given BGX instance, and thus needs netdev for each of them to have been allocated. There is a few things to be said about how the driver mixes LMAC and BGX states which leads to this sorry state, but that's beside the point. To address this, go back to a situation where all netdev structures are allocated before the driver starts relying on them, and move the freeing of these structures to driver removal. Someone brave enough can always go and restructure the driver if they want.

net: Add struct kernel_ethtool_ts_info

2024-07-15T15:02:26Z

In prevision to add new UAPI for hwtstamp we will be limited to the struct ethtool_ts_info that is currently passed in fixed binary format through the ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO ethtool ioctl. It would be good if new kernel code already started operating on an extensible kernel variant of that structure, similar in concept to struct kernel_hwtstamp_config vs struct hwtstamp_config. Since struct ethtool_ts_info is in include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, here we introduce the kernel-only structure in include/linux/ethtool.h. The manual copy is then made in the function called by ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO.

net: thunderx: Unembed netdev structure

2024-06-27T23:55:34Z

Embedding net_device into structures prohibits the usage of flexible arrays in the net_device structure. For more details, see the discussion at [1]. Un-embed the net_devices from struct lmac by converting them into pointers, and allocating them dynamically. Use the leverage alloc_netdev() to allocate the net_device object at bgx_lmac_enable(). The free of the device occurs at bgx_lmac_disable(). Do not free_netdevice() if bgx_lmac_enable() fails after lmac->netdev is allocated, since bgx_lmac_disable() is called if bgx_lmac_enable() fails, and lmac->netdev will be freed there (similarly to lmac->dmacs).

net: annotate writes on dev->mtu from ndo_change_mtu()

Simon reported that ndo_change_mtu() methods were never updated to use WRITE_ONCE(dev->mtu, new_mtu) as hinted in commit 501a90c94510 ("inet: protect against too small mtu values.") We read dev->mtu without holding RTNL in many places, with READ_ONCE() annotations. It is time to take care of ndo_change_mtu() methods to use corresponding WRITE_ONCE() Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Reported-by: Simon Horman Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240505144608.GB67882@kernel.org/ Reviewed-by: Jacob Keller Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Acked-by: Shannon Nelson Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20240506102812.3025432-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: ethtool: pass a pointer to parameters to get/set_rxfh ethtool ops

2023-12-14T06:07:16Z

The get/set_rxfh ethtool ops currently takes the rxfh (RSS) parameters as direct function arguments. This will force us to change the API (and all drivers' functions) every time some new parameters are added. This is part 1/2 of the fix, as suggested in [1]: - First simplify the code by always providing a pointer to all params (indir, key and func); the fact that some of them may be NULL seems like a weird historic thing or a premature optimization. It will simplify the drivers if all pointers are always present. - Then make the functions take a dev pointer, and a pointer to a single struct wrapping all arguments. The set_* should also take an extack.

net: thunderx: Use alloc_ordered_workqueue() to create ordered workqueues

2023-05-09T01:32:56Z

BACKGROUND ========== When multiple work items are queued to a workqueue, their execution order doesn't match the queueing order. They may get executed in any order and simultaneously. When fully serialized execution - one by one in the queueing order - is needed, an ordered workqueue should be used which can be created with alloc_ordered_workqueue(). However, alloc_ordered_workqueue() was a later addition. Before it, an ordered workqueue could be obtained by creating an UNBOUND workqueue with @max_active==1. This originally was an implementation side-effect which was broken by 4c16bd327c74 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered"). Because there were users that depended on the ordered execution, 5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered") made workqueue allocation path to implicitly promote UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 to ordered workqueues. While this has worked okay, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface this way creates other issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given workqueue actually needs to be ordered and users that legitimately want a min concurrency level wq unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With planned UNBOUND workqueue updates to improve execution locality and more prevalence of chiplet designs which can benefit from such improvements, this isn't a state we wanna be in forever. This patch series audits all callsites that create an UNBOUND workqueue w/ @max_active==1 and converts them to alloc_ordered_workqueue() as necessary. WHAT TO LOOK FOR ================ The conversions are from alloc_workqueue(WQ_UNBOUND | flags, 1, args..) to alloc_ordered_workqueue(flags, args...) which don't cause any functional changes. If you know that fully ordered execution is not ncessary, please let me know. I'll drop the conversion and instead add a comment noting the fact to reduce confusion while conversion is in progress. If you aren't fully sure, it's completely fine to let the conversion through. The behavior will stay exactly the same and we can always reconsider later. As there are follow-up workqueue core changes, I'd really appreciate if the patch can be routed through the workqueue tree w/ your acks. Thanks.

drivers: net: turn on XDP features

2023-02-03T04:48:23Z

A summary of the flags being set for various drivers is given below. Note that XDP_F_REDIRECT_TARGET and XDP_F_FRAG_TARGET are features that can be turned off and on at runtime. This means that these flags may be set and unset under RTNL lock protection by the driver. Hence, READ_ONCE must be used by code loading the flag value. Also, these flags are not used for synchronization against the availability of XDP resources on a device. It is merely a hint, and hence the read may race with the actual teardown of XDP resources on the device. This may change in the future, e.g. operations taking a reference on the XDP resources of the driver, and in turn inhibiting turning off this flag. However, for now, it can only be used as a hint to check whether device supports becoming a redirection target. Turn 'hw-offload' feature flag on for: - netronome (nfp) - netdevsim. Turn 'native' and 'zerocopy' features flags on for: - intel (i40e, ice, ixgbe, igc) - mellanox (mlx5). - stmmac - netronome (nfp) Turn 'native' features flags on for: - amazon (ena) - broadcom (bnxt) - freescale (dpaa, dpaa2, enetc) - funeth - intel (igb) - marvell (mvneta, mvpp2, octeontx2) - mellanox (mlx4) - mtk_eth_soc - qlogic (qede) - sfc - socionext (netsec) - ti (cpsw) - tap - tsnep - veth - xen - virtio_net.
