git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core & protocols: - Replace busylock at the Tx queuing layer with a lockless list. Resulting in a 300% (4x) improvement on heavy TX workloads, sending twice the number of packets per second, for half the cpu cycles. - Allow constantly busy flows to migrate to a more suitable CPU/NIC queue. Normally we perform queue re-selection when flow comes out of idle, but under extreme circumstances the flows may be constantly busy. Add sysctl to allow periodic rehashing even if it'd risk packet reordering. - Optimize the NAPI skb cache, make it larger, use it in more paths. - Attempt returning Tx skbs to the originating CPU (like we already did for Rx skbs). - Various data structure layout and prefetch optimizations from Eric. - Remove ktime_get() from the recvmsg() fast path, ktime_get() is sadly quite expensive on recent AMD machines. - Extend threaded NAPI polling to allow the kthread busy poll for packets. - Make MPTCP use Rx backlog processing. This lowers the lock pressure, improving the Rx performance. - Support memcg accounting of MPTCP socket memory. - Allow admin to opt sockets out of global protocol memory accounting (using a sysctl or BPF-based policy). The global limits are a poor fit for modern container workloads, where limits are imposed using cgroups. - Improve heuristics for when to kick off AF_UNIX garbage collection. - Allow users to control TCP SACK compression, and default to 33% of RTT. - Add tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl to let datacenter users avoid unnecessarily aggressive rcvbuf growth and overshot when the connection RTT is low. - Preserve skb metadata space across skb_push / skb_pull operations. - Support for IPIP encapsulation in the nftables flowtable offload. - Support appending IP interface information to ICMP messages (RFC 5837). - Support setting max record size in TLS (RFC 8449). - Remove taking rtnl_lock from RTM_GETNEIGHTBL and RTM_SETNEIGHTBL. - Use a dedicated lock (and RCU) in MPLS, instead of rtnl_lock. - Let users configure the number of write buffers in SMC. - Add new struct sockaddr_unsized for sockaddr of unknown length, from Kees. - Some conversions away from the crypto_ahash API, from Eric Biggers. - Some preparations for slimming down struct page. - YAML Netlink protocol spec for WireGuard. - Add a tool on top of YAML Netlink specs/lib for reporting commonly computed derived statistics and summarized system state. Driver API: - Add CAN XL support to the CAN Netlink interface. - Add uAPI for reporting PHY Mean Square Error (MSE) diagnostics, as defined by the OPEN Alliance's "Advanced diagnostic features for 100BASE-T1 automotive Ethernet PHYs" specification. - Add DPLL phase-adjust-gran pin attribute (and implement it in zl3073x). - Refactor xfrm_input lock to reduce contention when NIC offloads IPsec and performs RSS. - Add info to devlink params whether the current setting is the default or a user override. Allow resetting back to default. - Add standard device stats for PSP crypto offload. - Leverage DSA frame broadcast to implement simple HSR frame duplication for a lot of switches without dedicated HSR offload. - Add uAPI defines for 1.6Tbps link modes. Device drivers: - Add Motorcomm YT921x gigabit Ethernet switch support. - Add MUCSE driver for N500/N210 1GbE NIC series. - Convert drivers to support dedicated ops for timestamping control, and away from the direct IOCTL handling. While at it support GET operations for PHY timestamping. - Add (and convert most drivers to) a dedicated ethtool callback for reading the Rx ring count. - Significant refactoring efforts in the STMMAC driver, which supports Synopsys turn-key MAC IP integrated into a ton of SoCs. -

10 dayswireguard: netlink: add YNL specificationAsbjørn Sloth Tønnesen1-0/+298
This patch adds a near[1] complete YNL specification for WireGuard, documenting the protocol in a machine-readable format, rather than comments in wireguard.h, and eases usage from C and non-C programming languages alike. The generated C library will be featured in a later patch, so in this patch I will use the in-kernel python client for examples. This makes the documentation in the UAPI header redundant, it is therefore removed. The in-line documentation in the spec is based on the existing comment in wireguard.h, and once released it will be available in the kernel documentation at: https://docs.kernel.org/netlink/specs/wireguard.html (until then run: make htmldocs) Generate wireguard.rst from this spec: $ make -C tools/net/ynl/generated/ wireguard.rst Query wireguard interface through pyynl: $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \ --dump get-device \ --json '{"ifindex":3}' [{'fwmark': 0, 'ifindex': 3, 'ifname': 'wg-test', 'listen-port': 54318, 'peers': [{0: {'allowedips': [{0: {'cidr-mask': 0, 'family': 2, 'ipaddr': '0.0.0.0'}}, {0: {'cidr-mask': 0, 'family': 10, 'ipaddr': '::'}}], 'endpoint': b'[...]', 'last-handshake-time': {'nsec': 42, 'sec': 42}, 'persistent-keepalive-interval': 42, 'preshared-key': '[...]', 'protocol-version': 1, 'public-key': '[...]', 'rx-bytes': 42, 'tx-bytes': 42}}], 'private-key': '[...]', 'public-key': '[...]'}] Add another allowed IP prefix: $ sudo ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --family wireguard \ --do set-device --json '{"ifindex":3,"peers":[ {"public-key":"6a df b1 83 a4 ..","allowedips":[ {"cidr-mask":0,"family":10,"ipaddr":"::"}]}]}' [1] As can be seen above, the "endpoint" is only dumped as binary data, as it can't be fully described in YNL. It's either a struct sockaddr_in or struct sockaddr_in6 depending on the attribute length. Signed-off-by: Asbjørn Sloth Tønnesen <ast@fiberby.net> Signed-off-by: Jason A. Donenfeld <Jason@zx2c4.com>

2025-11-26netlink: specs: add big-endian byte-order for u32 IPv4 addressesHangbin Liu2-0/+3
The fix commit converted several IPv4 address attributes from binary to u32, but forgot to specify byte-order: big-endian. Without this, YNL tools display IPv4 addresses incorrectly due to host-endian interpretation. Add the missing byte-order: big-endian to all affected u32 IPv4 address fields to ensure correct parsing and display.

2025-11-20devlink: support default values for param-get and param-setDaniel Zahka1-0/+9
Support querying and resetting to default param values. Introduce two new devlink netlink attrs: DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_VALUE_DEFAULT and DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_RESET_DEFAULT. The former is used to contain an optional parameter value inside of the param_value nested attribute. The latter is used in param-set requests from userspace to indicate that the driver should reset the param to its default value. To implement this, two new functions are added to the devlink driver api: devlink_param::get_default() and devlink_param::reset_default(). These callbacks allow drivers to implement default param actions for runtime and permanent cmodes. For driverinit params, the core latches the last value set by a driver via devl_param_driverinit_value_set(), and uses that as the default value for a param. Because default parameter values are optional, it would be impossible to discern whether or not a param of type bool has default value of false or not provided if the default value is encoded using a netlink flag type. For this reason, when a DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_BOOL has an associated default value, the default value is encoded using a u8 type.

Since commit 1b255e1beabf ("tools: ynl: add ipv4-or-v6 display hint"), we can display either IPv4 or IPv6 addresses for a single field based on the address family. However, most dual-stack fields still use the ipv4 display hint. This update changes them to use the new ipv4-or-v6 display hint and converts IPv4-only fields to use the u32 type.

2025-11-11devlink: Introduce switchdev_inactive eswitch modeSaeed Mahameed1-0/+2
Adds DEVLINK_ESWITCH_MODE_SWITCHDEV_INACTIVE attribute to UAPI and documentation. Before having traffic flow through an eswitch, a user may want to have the ability to block traffic towards the FDB until FDB is fully programmed and the user is ready to send traffic to it. For example: when two eswitches are present for vports in a multi-PF setup, one eswitch may take over the traffic from the other when the user chooses. Before this take over, a user may want to first program the inactive eswitch and then once ready redirect traffic to this new eswitch. switchdev modes transition semantics: legacy->switchdev_inactive: Create switchdev mode normally, traffic not allowed to flow yet. switchdev_inactive->switchdev: Enable traffic to flow. switchdev->switchdev_inactive: Block traffic on the FDB, FDB and representros state and content is preserved. When eswitch is configured to this mode, traffic is ignored/dropped on this eswitch FDB, while current configuration is kept, e.g FDB rules and netdev representros are kept available, FDB programming is allowed. Example: # start inactive switchdev devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev_inactive # setup TC rules, representors etc .. # activate devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.1 mode switchdev Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed <saeedm@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20251108070404.1551708-2-saeed@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>

Add a generic netlink spec in YAML format and autogenerate boilerplate code using ynl-regen.sh to introduce a generic netlink for the energy model. It allows a userspace program to read the performance domain and its energy model. It notifies the userspace program when a performance domain is created or deleted or its energy model is updated through a multicast interface. Specifically, it supports two commands: - EM_CMD_GET_PDS: Get the list of information for all performance domains. - EM_CMD_GET_PD_TABLE: Get the energy model table of a performance domain. Also, it supports three notification events: - EM_CMD_PD_CREATED: When a performance domain is created. - EM_CMD_PD_DELETED: When a performance domain is deleted. - EM_CMD_PD_UPDATED: When the energy model table of a performance domain is updated.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc Pull Char/Misc/IIO/Binder updates from Greg KH: "Here is the big set of char/misc/iio and other driver subsystem changes for 6.18-rc1. Loads of different stuff in here, it was a busy development cycle in lots of different subsystems, with over 27k new lines added to the tree. Included in here are: - IIO updates including new drivers, reworking of existing apis, and other goodness in the sensor subsystems - MEI driver updates and additions - NVMEM driver updates - slimbus removal for an unused driver and some other minor updates - coresight driver updates and additions - MHI driver updates - comedi driver updates and fixes - extcon driver updates - interconnect driver additions - eeprom driver updates and fixes - minor UIO driver updates - tiny W1 driver updates But the majority of new code is in the rust bindings and additions, which includes: - misc driver rust binding updates for read/write support, we can now write "normal" misc drivers in rust fully, and the sample driver shows how this can be done. - Initial framework for USB driver rust bindings, which are disabled for now in the build, due to limited support, but coming in through this tree due to dependencies on other rust binding changes that were in here. I'll be enabling these back on in the build in the usb.git tree after -rc1 is out so that developers can continue to work on these in linux-next over the next development cycle. - Android Binder driver implemented in Rust. This is the big one, and was driving a huge majority of the rust binding work over the past years.

Introduce a new document, flow_control.rst, to provide a comprehensive guide on Ethernet Flow Control in Linux. The guide explains how flow control works, how autonegotiation resolves pause capabilities, and how to configure it using ethtool and Netlink. In parallel, document the pause and pause-stat attributes in the ethtool.yaml netlink spec. This enables the ynl tool to generate kernel-doc comments for the corresponding enums in the UAPI header, making the C interface self-documenting. Finally, replace the legacy flow control section in phy.rst with a reference to the new document and add pointers in the relevant C source files.

In YAML, it is allowed to declare a scalar strings at the next lines without explicitly declaring them as a block. Yet, they looks weird, and can cause issues when ':' or '#' are present. The modified lines didn't have issues with the special characters, but it seems better to explicitly declare such blocks as scalar strings to encourage people to "properly" declare future scalar strings. The right angle bracket is used with a minus sign to indicate that the folded style should be used without adding extra newlines.

By default, strings defined in YAML at the next line are folded: newlines are replaced by spaces. Here, the newlines are there for a reason, and should be kept in the output. This can be fixed by adding the '|' symbol to use the "literal" style. This issue was introduced by commit 387724cbf415 ("Documentation: netlink: add a YAML spec for team"), but visible in the doc only since the parent commit. To avoid warnings when generating the HTML output, and to look better, the code layout is now in a dedicated code block, which requires '::' and a new blank line. Just for a question of uniformity, a new blank line is also added after the code block.

2025-09-15mptcp: pm: nl: announce deny-join-id0 flagMatthieu Baerts (NGI0)1-2/+2
During the connection establishment, a peer can tell the other one that it cannot establish new subflows to the initial IP address and port by setting the 'C' flag [1]. Doing so makes sense when the sender is behind a strict NAT, operating behind a legacy Layer 4 load balancer, or using anycast IP address for example. When this 'C' flag is set, the path-managers must then not try to establish new subflows to the other peer's initial IP address and port. The in-kernel PM has access to this info, but the userspace PM didn't. The RFC8684 [1] is strict about that: (...) therefore the receiver MUST NOT try to open any additional subflows toward this address and port. So it is important to tell the userspace about that as it is responsible for the respect of this flag. When a new connection is created and established, the Netlink events now contain the existing but not currently used 'flags' attribute. When MPTCP_PM_EV_FLAG_DENY_JOIN_ID0 is set, it means no other subflows to the initial IP address and port -- info that are also part of the event -- can be established.

2025-08-26devlink: Make health reporter burst period configurableShahar Shitrit1-0/+7
Enable configuration of the burst period — a time window starting from the first error recovery, during which the reporter allows recovery attempts for each reported error. This feature is helpful when a single underlying issue causes multiple errors, as it delays the start of the grace period to allow sufficient time for recovering all related errors. For example, if multiple TX queues time out simultaneously, a sufficient burst period could allow all affected TX queues to be recovered within that window. Without this period, only the first TX queue that reports a timeout will undergo recovery, while the remaining TX queues will be blocked once the grace period begins. Configuration example: $ devlink health set pci/0000:00:09.0 reporter tx burst_period 500 Configuration example with ynl: ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py \ --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \ --do health-reporter-set --json '{ "bus-name": "auxiliary", "dev-name": "mlx5_core.eth.0", "port-index": 65535, "health-reporter-name": "tx", "health-reporter-burst-period": 500 }' Signed-off-by: Shahar Shitrit <shshitrit@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Dragos Tatulea <dtatulea@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Carolina Jubran <cjubran@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Bloch <mbloch@nvidia.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250824084354.533182-5-mbloch@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2025-08-14net: ethtool: support including Flow Label in the flow hash for RSSJakub Kicinski1-0/+3
Some modern NICs support including the IPv6 Flow Label in the flow hash for RSS queue selection. This is outside the old "Microsoft spec", but was included in the OCP NIC spec: [ ] RSS include flow label in the hash (configurable) https://www.opencompute.org/w/index.php?title=Core_Offloads#Receive_Side_Scaling RSS Flow Label hashing allows TCP Protective Load Balancing (PLB) to recover from receiver congestion / overload. Rx CPU/queue hotspots are relatively common for data ingest workloads, and so far we had to try to detect the condition at the RPC layer and reopen the connection. PLB lets us change the Flow Label and therefore Rx CPU on RTO, with minimal packet reordering. PLB reaction times are much faster, and can happen at any point in the connection, not just at RPC boundaries. Due to the nature of host processing (relatively long queues, other kernel subsystems masking IRQs for 100s of msecs) the risk of reordering within the host is higher than in the network. But for applications which need it - it is far preferable to potentially persistent overload of subset of queues. It is expected that the hash communicated to the host may change if the Flow Label changes. This may be surprising to some host software, but I don't expect the devices can compute two Toeplitz hashes, one with the Flow Label for queue selection and one without for the rx hash communicated to the host. Besides, changing the hash may potentially help to change the path thru host queues. User can disable NETIF_F_RXHASH if they require a stable flow hash. The name RXH_IP6_FL was chosen based on what we call Flow Label variables in IPv6 processing (fl). I prefer fl_lbl but that appears to be an fbnic-only spelling. We could spell out RXH_IP6_FLOW_LABEL but existing RXH_ defines are a lot more terse. Willem notes [1] that Flow Label is defined as identifying the flow and therefore including both the flow label _and_ the L4 header fields is not generally necessary. But it should not hurt so it's not explicitly prevented if the driver supports hashing on both at the same time.

2025-07-23devlink: Fix excessive stack usage in rate TC bandwidth parsingCarolina Jubran1-15/+11
The devlink_nl_rate_tc_bw_parse function uses a large stack array for devlink attributes, which triggers a warning about excessive stack usage: net/devlink/rate.c: In function 'devlink_nl_rate_tc_bw_parse': net/devlink/rate.c:382:1: error: the frame size of 1648 bytes is larger than 1536 bytes [-Werror=frame-larger-than=] Introduce a separate attribute set specifically for rate TC bandwidth parsing that only contains the two attributes actually used: index and bandwidth. This reduces the stack array from DEVLINK_ATTR_MAX entries to just 2 entries, solving the stack usage issue.

Add support for ETHTOOL_SRXFH (setting hashing fields) in RSS_SET. The tricky part is dealing with symmetric hashing. In netlink user can change the hashing fields and symmetric hash in one request, in IOCTL the two used to be set via different uAPI requests. Since fields and hash function config are still separate driver callbacks - changes to the two are not atomic. Keep things simple and validate the settings against both pre- and post- change ones. Meaning that we will reject the config request if user tries to correct the flow fields and set input_xfrm in one request, or disables input_xfrm and makes flow fields non-symmetric. We can adjust it later if there's a real need. Starting simple feels right, and potentially partially applying the settings isn't nice, either.

2025-07-17ethtool: rss: initial RSS_SET (indirection table handling)Jakub Kicinski1-0/+12
Add initial support for RSS_SET, for now only operations on the indirection table are supported. Unlike the ioctl don't check if at least one parameter is being changed. This is how other ethtool-nl ops behave, so pick the ethtool-nl consistency vs copying ioctl behavior. There are two special cases here: 1) resetting the table to defaults; 2) support for tables of different size. For (1) I use an empty Netlink attribute (array of size 0). (2) may require some background. AFAICT a lot of modern devices allow allocating RSS tables of different sizes. mlx5 can upsize its tables, bnxt has some "table size calculation", and Intel folks asked about RSS table sizing in context of resource allocation in the past. The ethtool IOCTL API has a concept of table size, but right now the user is expected to provide a table exactly the size the device requests. Some drivers may change the table size at runtime (in response to queue count changes) but the user is not in control of this. What's not great is that all RSS contexts share the same table size. For example a device with 128 queues enabled, 16 RSS contexts 8 queues in each will likely have 256 entry tables for each of the 16 contexts, while 32 would be more than enough given each context only has 8 queues. To address this the Netlink API should avoid enforcing table size at the uAPI level, and should allow the user to express the min table size they expect. To fully solve (2) we will need more driver plumbing but at the uAPI level this patch allows the user to specify a table size smaller than what the device advertises. The device table size must be a multiple of the user requested table size. We then replicate the user-provided table to fill the full device size table. This addresses the "allow the user to express the min table size" objective, while not enforcing any fixed size. From Netlink perspective .get_rxfh_indir_size() is now de facto the "max" table size supported by the device. We may choose to support table replication in ethtool, too, when we actually plumb this thru the device APIs. Initially I was considering moving full pattern generation to the kernel (which queues to use, at which frequency and what min sequence length). I don't think this complexity would buy us much and most if not all devices have pow-2 table sizes, which simplifies the replication a lot.

Implement ETHTOOL_GRXFH over Netlink. The number of flow types is reasonable (around 20) so report all of them at once for simplicity. Do not maintain the flow ID mapping with ioctl at the uAPI level. This gives us a chance to clean up the confusion that come from RxNFC vs RxFH (flow direction vs hashing) in the ioctl. Try to align with the names used in ethtool CLI, they seem to have stood the test of time just fine. One annoyance is that we still call L4 ports the weird names, but I guess they also apply to IPSec (where they cover the SPI) so it is what it is. $ ynl --family ethtool --dump rss-get { "header": { "dev-index": 1, "dev-name": "enp1s0" }, "hfunc": 1, "hkey": b"...", "indir": [0, 1, ...], "flow-hash": { "ether": {"l2da"}, "ah-esp4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "ah-esp6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "ah4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "ah6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "esp4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "esp6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "ip4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "ip6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "sctp4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "sctp6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "udp4": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "udp6": {"ip-src", "ip-dst"} "tcp4": {"l4-b-0-1", "l4-b-2-3", "ip-src", "ip-dst"}, "tcp6": {"l4-b-0-1", "l4-b-2-3", "ip-src", "ip-dst"}, }, } Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250708220640.2738464-5-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2025-07-02devlink: Extend devlink rate API with traffic classes bandwidth managementCarolina Jubran1-1/+31
Introduce support for specifying relative bandwidth shares between traffic classes (TC) in the devlink-rate API. This new option allows users to allocate bandwidth across multiple traffic classes in a single command. This feature provides a more granular control over traffic management, especially for scenarios requiring Enhanced Transmission Selection. Users can now define a relative bandwidth share for each traffic class. For example, assigning share values of 20 to TC0 (TCP/UDP) and 80 to TC5 (RoCE) will result in TC0 receiving 20% and TC5 receiving 80% of the total bandwidth. The actual percentage each class receives depends on the ratio of its share value to the sum of all shares. Example: DEV=pci/0000:08:00.0 $ devlink port function rate add $DEV/vfs_group tx_share 10Gbit \ tx_max 50Gbit tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:80 6:0 7:0 $ devlink port function rate set $DEV/vfs_group \ tc-bw 0:20 1:0 2:0 3:0 4:0 5:20 6:60 7:0 Example usage with ynl: ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \ --do rate-set --json '{ "bus-name": "pci", "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0", "port-index": 1, "rate-tc-bws": [ {"rate-tc-index": 0, "rate-tc-bw": 50}, {"rate-tc-index": 1, "rate-tc-bw": 50}, {"rate-tc-index": 2, "rate-tc-bw": 0}, {"rate-tc-index": 3, "rate-tc-bw": 0}, {"rate-tc-index": 4, "rate-tc-bw": 0}, {"rate-tc-index": 5, "rate-tc-bw": 0}, {"rate-tc-index": 6, "rate-tc-bw": 0}, {"rate-tc-index": 7, "rate-tc-bw": 0} ] }' ./tools/net/ynl/cli.py --spec Documentation/netlink/specs/devlink.yaml \ --do rate-get --json '{ "bus-name": "pci", "dev-name": "0000:08:00.0", "port-index": 1 }' output for rate-get: {'bus-name': 'pci', 'dev-name': '0000:08:00.0', 'port-index': 1, 'rate-tc-bws': [{'rate-tc-bw': 50, 'rate-tc-index': 0}, {'rate-tc-bw': 50, 'rate-tc-index': 1}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 2}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 3}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 4}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 5}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 6}, {'rate-tc-bw': 0, 'rate-tc-index': 7}], 'rate-tx-max': 0, 'rate-tx-priority': 0, 'rate-tx-share': 0, 'rate-tx-weight': 0, 'rate-type': 'leaf'} Signed-off-by: Carolina Jubran <cjubran@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Cosmin Ratiu <cratiu@nvidia.com> Reviewed-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Tariq Toukan <tariqt@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: Mark Bloch <mbloch@nvidia.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250629142138.361537-3-mbloch@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
2025-06-30neighbor: Add NTF_EXT_VALIDATED flag for externally validated entriesIdo Schimmel1-0/+1
tl;dr ===== Add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid") that can be used to indicate to the kernel that a neighbor entry was learned and determined to be valid externally. The kernel will not try to remove or invalidate such an entry, leaving these decisions to the user space control plane. This is needed for EVPN multi-homing where a neighbor entry for a multi-homed host needs to be synced across all the VTEPs among which the host is multi-homed. Background ========== In a typical EVPN multi-homing setup each host is multi-homed using a set of links called ES (Ethernet Segment, i.e., LAG) to multiple leaf switches (VTEPs). VTEPs that are connected to the same ES are called ES peers. When a neighbor entry is learned on a VTEP, it is distributed to both ES peers and remote VTEPs using EVPN MAC/IP advertisement routes. ES peers use the neighbor entry when routing traffic towards the multi-homed host and remote VTEPs use it for ARP/NS suppression. Motivation ========== If the ES link between a host and the VTEP on which the neighbor entry was locally learned goes down, the EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route will be withdrawn and the neighbor entries will be removed from both ES peers and remote VTEPs. Routing towards the multi-homed host and ARP/NS suppression can fail until another ES peer locally learns the neighbor entry and distributes it via an EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. "draft-rbickhart-evpn-ip-mac-proxy-adv-03" [1] suggests avoiding these intermittent failures by having the ES peers install the neighbor entries as before, but also injecting EVPN MAC/IP advertisement routes with a proxy indication. When the previously mentioned ES link goes down and the original EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route is withdrawn, the ES peers will not withdraw their neighbor entries, but instead start aging timers for the proxy indication. If an ES peer locally learns the neighbor entry (i.e., it becomes "reachable"), it will restart its aging timer for the entry and emit an EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route without a proxy indication. An ES peer will stop its aging timer for the proxy indication if it observes the removal of the proxy indication from at least one of the ES peers advertising the entry. In the event that the aging timer for the proxy indication expired, an ES peer will withdraw its EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. If the timer expired on all ES peers and they all withdrew their proxy advertisements, the neighbor entry will be completely removed from the EVPN fabric. Implementation ============== In the above scheme, when the control plane (e.g., FRR) advertises a neighbor entry with a proxy indication, it expects the corresponding entry in the data plane (i.e., the kernel) to remain valid and not be removed due to garbage collection or loss of carrier. The control plane also expects the kernel to notify it if the entry was learned locally (i.e., became "reachable") so that it will remove the proxy indication from the EVPN MAC/IP advertisement route. That is why these entries cannot be programmed with dummy states such as "permanent" or "noarp". Instead, add a new neighbor flag ("extern_valid") which indicates that the entry was learned and determined to be valid externally and should not be removed or invalidated by the kernel. The kernel can probe the entry and notify user space when it becomes "reachable" (it is initially installed as "stale"). However, if the kernel does not receive a confirmation, have it return the entry to the "stale" state instead of the "failed" state. In other words, an entry marked with the "extern_valid" flag behaves like any other dynamically learned entry other than the fact that the kernel cannot remove or invalidate it. One can argue that the "extern_valid" flag should not prevent garbage collection and that instead a neighbor entry should be programmed with both the "extern_valid" and "extern_learn" flags. There are two reasons for not doing that: 1. Unclear why a control plane would like to program an entry that the kernel cannot invalidate but can completely remove. 2. The "extern_learn" flag is used by FRR for neighbor entries learned on remote VTEPs (for ARP/NS suppression) whereas here we are concerned with local entries. This distinction is currently irrelevant for the kernel, but might be relevant in the future. Given that the flag only makes sense when the neighbor has a valid state, reject attempts to add a neighbor with an invalid state and with this flag set. For example: # ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 nud none dev br0.10 extern_valid Error: Cannot create externally validated neighbor with an invalid state. # ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid # ip neigh replace 192.0.2.1 nud failed dev br0.10 extern_valid Error: Cannot mark neighbor as externally validated with an invalid state. The above means that a neighbor cannot be created with the "extern_valid" flag and flags such as "use" or "managed" as they result in a neighbor being created with an invalid state ("none") and immediately getting probed: # ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid use Error: Cannot create externally validated neighbor with an invalid state. However, these flags can be used together with "extern_valid" after the neighbor was created with a valid state: # ip neigh add 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid # ip neigh replace 192.0.2.1 lladdr 00:11:22:33:44:55 nud stale dev br0.10 extern_valid use One consequence of preventing the kernel from invalidating a neighbor entry is that by default it will only try to determine reachability using unicast probes.

Add a regexp to make sure all names which may end up being visible to the user consist of lower case characters, numbers and dashes. Underscores keep sneaking into the specs, which is not visible in the C code but makes the Python and alike inconsistent. Note that starting with a number is okay, as in C the full name will include the family name. For legacy families we can't enforce the naming in the family name or the multicast group names, as these are part of the binary uAPI of the kernel. For classic netlink we need to allow capital letters in names of struct members. TC has some structs with capitalized members.

2025-06-18net: pse-pd: Add support for budget evaluation strategiesKory Maincent (Dent Project)1-2/+28
This patch introduces the ability to configure the PSE PI budget evaluation strategies. Budget evaluation strategies is utilized by PSE controllers to determine which ports to turn off first in scenarios such as power budget exceedance. The pis_prio_max value is used to define the maximum priority level supported by the controller. Both the current priority and the maximum priority are exposed to the user through the pse_ethtool_get_status call. This patch add support for two mode of budget evaluation strategies. 1. Static Method: This method involves distributing power based on PD classification. It’s straightforward and stable, the PSE core keeping track of the budget and subtracting the power requested by each PD’s class. Advantages: Every PD gets its promised power at any time, which guarantees reliability. Disadvantages: PD classification steps are large, meaning devices request much more power than they actually need. As a result, the power supply may only operate at, say, 50% capacity, which is inefficient and wastes money. Priority max value is matching the number of PSE PIs within the PSE. 2. Dynamic Method: To address the inefficiencies of the static method, vendors like Microchip have introduced dynamic power budgeting, as seen in the PD692x0 firmware. This method monitors the current consumption per port and subtracts it from the available power budget. When the budget is exceeded, lower-priority ports are shut down. Advantages: This method optimizes resource utilization, saving costs. Disadvantages: Low-priority devices may experience instability. Priority max value is set by the PSE controller driver. For now, budget evaluation methods are not configurable and cannot be mixed. They are hardcoded in the PSE driver itself, as no current PSE controller supports both methods.

All attribute sets and messages are prefixed with tc-. The C codegen also adds the family name to all structs. We end up with names like struct tc_tc_act_attrs. Remove the tc- prefixes to shorten the names. This should not impact Python as the attr set names are never exposed to user, they are only used to refer to things internally, in the encoder / decoder.

There is a define in the uAPI header called tc_gen which expands to the "generic" TC action fields. This helps other actions include the base fields without having to deal with nested structs. A couple of actions (sample, gact) do not define extra fields, so the spec used a common tc-gen struct for both of them. Unfortunately this struct does not exist in C. Let's use gact's (generic act's) struct for basic actions.

The structs are not part of uAPI, so we can't use them in C directly. We could add them to the uAPI or add some annotation to tell the codegen to output a local version to the user header.

2025-03-10lockd: add netlink control interfaceJeff Layton1-0/+45
The legacy rpc.nfsd tool will set the nlm_grace_period if the NFSv4 grace period is set. nfsdctl is missing this functionality, so add a new netlink control interface for lockd that it can use. For now, it only allows setting the grace period, and the tcp and udp listener ports. lockd currently uses module parameters and sysctls for configuration, so all of its settings are global. With this change, lockd now tracks these values on a per-net-ns basis. It will only fall back to using the global values if any of them are 0. Finally, as a backward compatibility measure, if updating the nlm settings in the init_net namespace, also update the legacy global values to match.

2025-02-17netdev: clarify GSO vs csum in qstatsJakub Kicinski1-0/+2
Could be just me, but I had to pause and double check that the Tx csum counter in qstat should include GSO'd packets. GSO pretty much implies csum so one could possibly interpret the csum counter as pure csum offload. But the counters are based on virtio: [tx_needs_csum] The number of packets which require checksum calculation by the device. [rx_needs_csum] The number of packets with VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM. and VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM gets set on GSO packets virtio sends. Clarify this in the spec to avoid any confusion.

2025-02-06Merge branch 'io_uring-zero-copy-rx'Jakub Kicinski1-0/+15
David Wei says: ==================== io_uring zero copy rx This patchset contains net/ patches needed by a new io_uring request implementing zero copy rx into userspace pages, eliminating a kernel to user copy. We configure a page pool that a driver uses to fill a hw rx queue to hand out user pages instead of kernel pages. Any data that ends up hitting this hw rx queue will thus be dma'd into userspace memory directly, without needing to be bounced through kernel memory. 'Reading' data out of a socket instead becomes a _notification_ mechanism, where the kernel tells userspace where the data is. The overall approach is similar to the devmem TCP proposal. This relies on hw header/data split, flow steering and RSS to ensure packet headers remain in kernel memory and only desired flows hit a hw rx queue configured for zero copy. Configuring this is outside of the scope of this patchset. We share netdev core infra with devmem TCP. The main difference is that io_uring is used for the uAPI and the lifetime of all objects are bound to an io_uring instance. Data is 'read' using a new io_uring request type. When done, data is returned via a new shared refill queue. A zero copy page pool refills a hw rx queue from this refill queue directly. Of course, the lifetime of these data buffers are managed by io_uring rather than the networking stack, with different refcounting rules. This patchset is the first step adding basic zero copy support. We will extend this iteratively with new features e.g. dynamically allocated zero copy areas, THP support, dmabuf support, improved copy fallback, general optimisations and more. In terms of netdev support, we're first targeting Broadcom bnxt. Patches aren't included since Taehee Yoo has already sent a more comprehensive patchset adding support in [1]. Google gve should already support this, and Mellanox mlx5 support is WIP pending driver changes. =========== Performance =========== Note: Comparison with epoll + TCP_ZEROCOPY_RECEIVE isn't done yet.

2025-01-17net: ethtool: ts: add separate counter for unconfirmed one-step TX timestampsVladimir Oltean1-0/+3
For packets with two-step timestamp requests, the hardware timestamp comes back to the driver through a confirmation mechanism of sorts, which allows the driver to confidently bump the successful "pkts" counter. For one-step PTP, the NIC is supposed to autonomously insert its hardware TX timestamp in the packet headers while simultaneously transmitting it. There may be a confirmation that this was done successfully, or there may not. None of the current drivers which implement ethtool_ops :: get_ts_stats() also support HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC or HWTSTAMP_TX_ONESTEP_SYNC, so it is a bit unclear which model to follow. But there are NICs, such as DSA, where there is no transmit confirmation at all. Here, it would be wrong / misleading to increment the successful "pkts" counter, because one-step PTP packets can be dropped on TX just like any other packets. So introduce a special counter which signifies "yes, an attempt was made, but we don't know whether it also exited the port or not". I expect that for one-step PTP packets where a confirmation is available, the "pkts" counter would be bumped.

2025-01-15net: ethtool: add support for configuring hds-threshTaehee Yoo1-0/+8
The hds-thresh option configures the threshold value of the header-data-split. If a received packet size is larger than this threshold value, a packet will be split into header and payload. The header indicates TCP and UDP header, but it depends on driver spec. The bnxt_en driver supports HDS(Header-Data-Split) configuration at FW level, affecting TCP and UDP too. So, If hds-thresh is set, it affects UDP and TCP packets. Example: # ethtool -G <interface name> hds-thresh <value> # ethtool -G enp14s0f0np0 tcp-data-split on hds-thresh 256 # ethtool -g enp14s0f0np0 Ring parameters for enp14s0f0np0: Pre-set maximums: ... HDS thresh: 1023 Current hardware settings: ... TCP data split: on HDS thresh: 256 The default/min/max values are not defined in the ethtool so the drivers should define themself. The 0 value means that all TCP/UDP packets' header and payload will be split.

Define the user-space visible interface to query, configure and delete network shapers via yaml definition. Add dummy implementations for the relevant NL callbacks. set() and delete() operations touch a single shaper creating/updating or deleting it. The group() operation creates a shaper's group, nesting multiple input shapers under the specified output shaper.

2024-10-04net: add IFLA_MAX_PACING_OFFLOAD_HORIZON device attributeEric Dumazet1-0/+4
Some network devices have the ability to offload EDT (Earliest Departure Time) which is the model used for TCP pacing and FQ packet scheduler. Some of them implement the timing wheel mechanism described in https://saeed.github.io/files/carousel-sigcomm17.pdf with an associated 'timing wheel horizon'. This patch adds dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon expressing this timing wheel horizon in nsec units. This is a read-only attribute. Unless a driver sets it, dev->max_pacing_offload_horizon is zero. v2: addressed Jakub feedback ( https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20240930152304.472767-2-edumazet@google.com/T/#mf6294d714c41cc459962154cc2580ce3c9693663 ) v3: added yaml doc (also per Jakub feedback) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Reviewed-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241003121219.2396589-2-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

2024-09-11netdev: support binding dma-buf to netdeviceMina Almasry1-0/+4
Add a netdev_dmabuf_binding struct which represents the dma-buf-to-netdevice binding. The netlink API will bind the dma-buf to rx queues on the netdevice. On the binding, the dma_buf_attach & dma_buf_map_attachment will occur. The entries in the sg_table from mapping will be inserted into a genpool to make it ready for allocation. The chunks in the genpool are owned by a dmabuf_chunk_owner struct which holds the dma-buf offset of the base of the chunk and the dma_addr of the chunk. Both are needed to use allocations that come from this chunk. We create a new type that represents an allocation from the genpool: net_iov. We setup the net_iov allocation size in the genpool to PAGE_SIZE for simplicity: to match the PAGE_SIZE normally allocated by the page pool and given to the drivers. The user can unbind the dmabuf from the netdevice by closing the netlink socket that established the binding. We do this so that the binding is automatically unbound even if the userspace process crashes. The binding and unbinding leaves an indicator in struct netdev_rx_queue that the given queue is bound, and the binding is actuated by resetting the rx queue using the queue API. The netdev_dmabuf_binding struct is refcounted, and releases its resources only when all the refs are released.
