This patch provides a setsockopt method to let applications leverage to
adjust how many descs to be handled at most in one send syscall. It
mitigates the situation where the default value (32) that is too small
leads to higher frequency of triggering send syscall.
Considering the prosperity/complexity the applications have, there is no
absolutely ideal suggestion fitting all cases. So keep 32 as its default
value like before.
The patch does the following things:
- Add XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET socket option.
- Set max_tx_budget to 32 by default in the initialization phase as a
per-socket granular control.
- Set the range of max_tx_budget as [32, xs->tx->nentries].
The idea behind this comes out of real workloads in production. We use a
user-level stack with xsk support to accelerate sending packets and
minimize triggering syscalls. When the packets are aggregated, it's not
hard to hit the upper bound (namely, 32). The moment user-space stack
fetches the -EAGAIN error number passed from sendto(), it will loop to try
again until all the expected descs from tx ring are sent out to the driver.
Enlarging the XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET value contributes to less frequency of
sendto() and higher throughput/PPS.
Here is what I did in production, along with some numbers as follows:
For one application I saw lately, I suggested using 128 as max_tx_budget
because I saw two limitations without changing any default configuration:
1) XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, 2) socket sndbuf which is 212992 decided by
net.core.wmem_default. As to XDP_MAX_TX_SKB_BUDGET, the scenario behind
this was I counted how many descs are transmitted to the driver at one
time of sendto() based on [1] patch and then I calculated the
possibility of hitting the upper bound. Finally I chose 128 as a
suitable value because 1) it covers most of the cases, 2) a higher
number would not bring evident results. After twisting the parameters,
a stable improvement of around 4% for both PPS and throughput and less
resources consumption were found to be observed by strace -c -p xxx:
1) %time was decreased by 7.8%
2) error counter was decreased from 18367 to 572

Some Broadcom PHYs are capable to operate in simplified MII mode,
without TXER, RXER, CRS and COL signals as defined for the MII.
The MII-Lite mode can be used on most Ethernet controllers with full
MII interface by just leaving the input signals (RXER, CRS, COL)
inactive. The absence of COL signal makes half-duplex link modes
impossible but does not interfere with BroadR-Reach link modes on
Broadcom PHYs, because they are all full-duplex only.
Add MII-Lite interface mode, especially for Broadcom two-wire PHYs.

Microchip Azurite ZL3073x represents chip family providing DPLL
and optionally PHC (PTP) functionality. The chips can be connected
be connected over I2C or SPI bus.
They have the following characteristics:
* up to 5 separate DPLL units (channels)
* 5 synthesizers
* 10 input pins (references)
* 10 outputs
* 20 output pins (output pin pair shares one output)
* Each reference and output can operate in either differential or
single-ended mode (differential mode uses 2 pins)
* Each output is connected to one of the synthesizers
* Each synthesizer is driven by one of the DPLL unit
The device uses 7-bit addresses and 8-bits values. It exposes 8-, 16-,
32- and 48-bits registers in address range <0x000,0x77F>. Due to 7bit
addressing, the range is organized into pages of 128 bytes, with each
page containing a page selector register at address 0x7F.
For reading/writing multi-byte registers, the device supports bulk
transfers.
Add basic functionality to access device registers, probe functionality
both I2C and SPI cases and add devlink support to provide info and
to set clock ID parameter.

In LACP mode with broadcast_neighbor enabled, after LACP protocol
recovery, the port can transmit packets. However, if the bond port
doesn't send gratuitous ARP/ND packets to the switch, the switch
won't return packets through the current interface. This causes
traffic imbalance. To resolve this issue, when LACP protocol recovers,
send ARP/ND packets if broadcast_neighbor is enabled.

Stacking technology is a type of technology used to expand ports on
Ethernet switches. It is widely used as a common access method in
large-scale Internet data center architectures. Years of practice
have proved that stacking technology has advantages and disadvantages
in high-reliability network architecture scenarios. For instance,
in stacking networking arch, conventional switch system upgrades
require multiple stacked devices to restart at the same time.
Therefore, it is inevitable that the business will be interrupted
for a while. It is for this reason that "no-stacking" in data centers
has become a trend. Additionally, when the stacking link connecting
the switches fails or is abnormal, the stack will split. Although it is
not common, it still happens in actual operation. The problem is that
after the split, it is equivalent to two switches with the same
configuration appearing in the network, causing network configuration
conflicts and ultimately interrupting the services carried by the
stacking system.
To improve network stability, "non-stacking" solutions have been
increasingly adopted, particularly by public cloud providers and
tech companies like Alibaba, Tencent, and Didi. "non-stacking" is
a method of mimicing switch stacking that convinces a LACP peer,
bonding in this case, connected to a set of "non-stacked" switches
that all of its ports are connected to a single switch
(i.e., LACP aggregator), as if those switches were stacked. This
enables the LACP peer's ports to aggregate together, and requires
(a) special switch configuration, described in the linked article,
and (b) modifications to the bonding 802.3ad (LACP) mode to send
all ARP/ND packets across all ports of the active aggregator.
Note that, with multiple aggregators, the current broadcast mode
logic will send only packets to the selected aggregator(s).

The DCCP socket family has now been removed from this tree, see:
8bb3212be4b4 ("Merge branch 'net-retire-dccp-socket'")
Remove connection tracking and NAT support for this protocol, this
should not pose a problem because no DCCP traffic is expected to be seen
on the wire.
As for the code for matching on dccp header for iptables and nftables,
mark it as deprecated and keep it in place. Ruleset restoration is an
atomic operation. Without dccp matching support, an astray match on dccp
could break this operation leaving your computer with no policy in
place, so let's follow a more conservative approach for matches.
Add CONFIG_NFT_EXTHDR_DCCP which is set to 'n' by default to deprecate
dccp extension support. Similarly, label CONFIG_NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_DCCP
as deprecated too and also set it to 'n' by default.
Code to match on DCCP protocol from ebtables also remains in place, this
is just a few checks on IPPROTO_DCCP from _check() path which is
exercised when ruleset is loaded. There is another use of IPPROTO_DCCP
from the _check() path in the iptables multiport match. Another check
for IPPROTO_DCCP from the packet in the reject target is also removed.
So let's schedule removal of the dccp matching for a second stage, this
should not interfer with the dccp retirement since this is only matching
on the dccp header.

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 '{

Adding the base directory of debugfs to the driver.
In order for the folder to be unique per driver instantiation,
the chosen name is the device name.
This commit contains the initialization and the
base folder.
The creation of the base folder may fail, but is considered
non-fatal.

Adding basic devlink capability support of reloading the driver.
This capability is required to support driver init type
devlink params (DEVLINK_PARAM_CMODE_DRIVERINIT). Such params
require reloading of the driver (destroy/restore sequence).
The reloading is done by the devlink framework using the
hooks provided by the driver.

Add documentation explaining the msgid feature in netconsole.
This feature appends unique id to the userdata dictionary. The message
ID is populated from a per-target 32 bit counter which is incremented
for each message sent to the target. This allows a target to detect if
messages are dropped before reaching the target.

Now that obsolete RFC3517/RFC6675 TCP loss detection has been removed,
we can remove the somewhat complex and intrusive code to maintain its
hint state: lost_skb_hint and lost_cnt_hint.
This commit makes tcp_clear_retrans_hints_partial() empty. We will
remove tcp_clear_retrans_hints_partial() and its call sites in the
next commit.

RACK-TLP loss detection has been enabled as the default loss detection
algorithm for Linux TCP since 2018, in:
commit b38a51fec1c1 ("tcp: disable RFC6675 loss detection")
In case users ran into unexpected bugs or performance regressions,
that commit allowed Linux system administrators to revert to using
RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery by setting net.ipv4.tcp_recovery to 0.
In the seven years since 2018, our team has not heard reports of
anyone reverting Linux TCP to use RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery, and
we can't find any record in web searches of such a revert.
RACK-TLP was published as a standards-track RFC, RFC8985, in February
2021.
Several other major TCP implementations have default-enabled RACK-TLP
at this point as well.
RACK-TLP offers several significant performance advantages over
RFC3517/RFC6675 loss recovery, including much better performance in
the common cases of tail drops, lost retransmissions, and reordering.
It is now time to remove the obsolete and unused RFC3517/RFC6675 loss
recovery code. This will allow a substantial simplification of the
Linux TCP code base, and removes 12 bytes of state in every tcp_sock
for 64-bit machines (8 bytes on 32-bit machines).
To arrange the commits in reasonable sizes, this patch series is split
into 3 commits. The following 2 commits remove bookkeeping state and
code that is no longer needed after this removal of RFC3517/RFC6675
loss recovery.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm
Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton:
- "Add folio_mk_pte()" from Matthew Wilcox simplifies the act of
creating a pte which addresses the first page in a folio and reduces
the amount of plumbing which architecture must implement to provide
this.
- "Misc folio patches for 6.16" from Matthew Wilcox is a shower of
largely unrelated folio infrastructure changes which clean things up
and better prepare us for future work.
- "memory,x86,acpi: hotplug memory alignment advisement" from Gregory
Price adds early-init code to prevent x86 from leaving physical
memory unused when physical address regions are not aligned to memory
block size.
- "mm/compaction: allow more aggressive proactive compaction" from
Michal Clapinski provides some tuning of the (sadly, hard-coded (more
sadly, not auto-tuned)) thresholds for our invokation of proactive
compaction. In a simple test case, the reduction of a guest VM's
memory consumption was dramatic.
- "Minor cleanups and improvements to swap freeing code" from Kemeng
Shi provides some code cleaups and a small efficiency improvement to
this part of our swap handling code.
- "ptrace: introduce PTRACE_SET_SYSCALL_INFO API" from Dmitry Levin
adds the ability for a ptracer to modify syscalls arguments. At this
time we can alter only "system call information that are used by
strace system call tampering, namely, syscall number, syscall
arguments, and syscall return value.
This series should have been incorporated into mm.git's "non-MM"
branch, but I goofed.
- "fs/proc: extend the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl to report guard regions" from
Andrei Vagin extends the info returned by the PAGEMAP_SCAN ioctl
against /proc/pid/pagemap. This permits CRIU to more efficiently get
at the info about guard regions.
- "Fix parameter passed to page_mapcount_is_type()" from Gavin Shan
implements that fix. No runtime effect is expected because
validate_page_before_insert() happens to fix up this error.
- "kernel/events/uprobes: uprobe_write_opcode() rewrite" from David
Hildenbrand basically brings uprobe text poking into the current
decade. Remove a bunch of hand-rolled implementation in favor of
using more current facilities.
- "mm/ptdump: Drop assumption that pxd_val() is u64" from Anshuman
Khandual provides enhancements and generalizations to the pte dumping
code. This might be needed when 128-bit Page Table Descriptors are
enabled for ARM.
- "Always call constructor for kernel page tables" from Kevin Brodsky
ensures that the ctor/dtor is always called for kernel pgtables, as
it already is for user pgtables.
This permits the addition of more functionality such as "insert hooks
to protect page tables". This change does result in various
architectures performing unnecesary work, but this is fixed up where
it is anticipated to occur.
- "Rust support for mm_struct, vm_area_struct, and mmap" from Alice
Ryhl adds plumbing to permit Rust access to core MM structures.
- "fix incorrectly disallowed anonymous VMA merges" from Lorenzo
Stoakes takes advantage of some VMA merging opportunities which we've
been missing for 15 years.
- "mm/madvise: batch tlb flushes for MADV_DONTNEED and MADV_FREE" from
SeongJae Park optimizes process_madvise()'s TLB flushing.
Instead of flushing each address range in the provided iovec, we
batch the flushing across all the iovec entries. The syscall's cost
was approximately halved with a microbenchmark which was designed to
load this particular operation.
- "Track node vacancy to reduce worst case allocation counts" from
Sidhartha Kumar makes the maple tree smarter about its node
preallocation.
stress-ng mmap performance increased by single-digit percentages and
the amount of unnecessarily preallocated memory was dramaticelly
reduced.
- "mm/gup: Minor fix, cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He removes
a few unnecessary things which Baoquan noted when reading the code.
- ""Enhance sysfs handling for memory hotplug in weighted interleave"
from Rakie Kim "enhances the weighted interleave policy in the memory
management subsystem by improving sysfs handling, fixing memory
leaks, and introducing dynamic sysfs updates for memory hotplug
support". Fixes things on error paths which we are unlikely to hit.
- "mm/damon: auto-tune DAMOS for NUMA setups including tiered memory"
from SeongJae Park introduces new DAMOS quota goal metrics which
eliminate the manual tuning which is required when utilizing DAMON
for memory tiering.
- "mm/vmalloc.c: code cleanup and improvements" from Baoquan He
provides cleanups and small efficiency improvements which Baoquan
found via code inspection.
- "vmscan: enforce mems_effective during demotion" from Gregory Price
changes reclaim to respect cpuset.mems_effective during demotion when
possible. because presently, reclaim explicitly ignores
cpuset.mems_effective when demoting, which may cause the cpuset
settings to violated.
This is useful for isolating workloads on a multi-tenant system from
certain classes of memory more consistently.
- "Clean up split_huge_pmd_locked() and remove unnecessary folio
pointers" from Gavin Guo provides minor cleanups and efficiency gains
in in the huge page splitting and migrating code.
- "Use kmem_cache for memcg alloc" from Huan Yang creates a slab cache
for `struct mem_cgroup', yielding improved memory utilization.
- "add max arg to swappiness in memory.reclaim and lru_gen" from
Zhongkun He adds a new "max" argument to the "swappiness=" argument
for memory.reclaim MGLRU's lru_gen.
This directs proactive reclaim to reclaim from only anon folios
rather than file-backed folios.
- "kexec: introduce Kexec HandOver (KHO)" from Mike Rapoport is the
first step on the path to permitting the kernel to maintain existing
VMs while replacing the host kernel via file-based kexec. At this
time only memblock's reserve_mem is preserved.
- "mm: Introduce for_each_valid_pfn()" from David Woodhouse provides
and uses a smarter way of looping over a pfn range. By skipping
ranges of invalid pfns.
- "sched/numa: Skip VMA scanning on memory pinned to one NUMA node via
cpuset.mems" from Libo Chen removes a lot of pointless VMA scanning
when a task is pinned a single NUMA mode.
Dramatic performance benefits were seen in some real world cases.
- "JFS: Implement migrate_folio for jfs_metapage_aops" from Shivank
Garg addresses a warning which occurs during memory compaction when
using JFS.
- "move all VMA allocation, freeing and duplication logic to mm" from
Lorenzo Stoakes moves some VMA code from kernel/fork.c into the more
appropriate mm/vma.c.
- "mm, swap: clean up swap cache mapping helper" from Kairui Song
provides code consolidation and cleanups related to the folio_index()
function.
- "mm/gup: Cleanup memfd_pin_folios()" from Vishal Moola does that.
- "memcg: Fix test_memcg_min/low test failures" from Waiman Long
addresses some bogus failures which are being reported by the
test_memcontrol selftest.
- "eliminate mmap() retry merge, add .mmap_prepare hook" from Lorenzo
Stoakes commences the deprecation of file_operations.mmap() in favor
of the new file_operations.mmap_prepare().
The latter is more restrictive and prevents drivers from messing with
things in ways which, amongst other problems, may defeat VMA merging.
- "memcg: decouple memcg and objcg stocks"" from Shakeel Butt decouples
the per-cpu memcg charge cache from the objcg's one.
This is a step along the way to making memcg and objcg charging
NMI-safe, which is a BPF requirement.
- "mm/damon: minor fixups and improvements for code, tests, and
documents" from SeongJae Park is yet another batch of miscellaneous
DAMON changes. Fix and improve minor problems in code, tests and
documents.
- "memcg: make memcg stats irq safe" from Shakeel Butt converts memcg
stats to be irq safe. Another step along the way to making memcg
charging and stats updates NMI-safe, a BPF requirement.
- "Let unmap_hugepage_range() and several related functions take folio

This is [1/3] part of hinic3 Ethernet driver initial submission.
With this patch hinic3 is a valid kernel module but non-functional
driver.
The driver parts contained in this patch:
Module initialization.
PCI driver registration but with empty id_table.
Auxiliary driver registration.
Net device_ops registration but open/stop are empty stubs.
tx/rx logic.
All major data structures of the driver are fully introduced with the
code that uses them but without their initialization code that requires
management interface with the hw.
