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.

The NetDIM library, currently leveraged by an array of NICs, delivers
excellent acceleration benefits. Nevertheless, NICs vary significantly
in their dim profile list prerequisites.
Specifically, virtio-net backends may present diverse sw or hw device
implementation, making a one-size-fits-all parameter list impractical.
On Alibaba Cloud, the virtio DPU's performance under the default DIM
profile falls short of expectations, partly due to a mismatch in
parameter configuration.
I also noticed that ice/idpf/ena and other NICs have customized
profilelist or placed some restrictions on dim capabilities.
Motivated by this, I tried adding new params for "ethtool -C" that provides
a per-device control to modify and access a device's interrupt parameters.
Usage
========
The target NIC is named ethx.
Assume that ethx only declares support for rx profile setting
(with DIM_PROFILE_RX flag set in profile_flags) and supports modification
of usec and pkt fields.
1. Query the currently customized list of the device
$ ethtool -c ethx
...
rx-profile:
{.usec = 1, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 8, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 64, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 128, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 256, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,}
tx-profile: n/a
2. Tune
$ ethtool -C ethx rx-profile 1,1,n_2,n,n_3,3,n_4,4,n_n,5,n
"n" means do not modify this field.
$ ethtool -c ethx
...
rx-profile:
{.usec = 1, .pkts = 1, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 2, .pkts = 256, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 3, .pkts = 3, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 4, .pkts = 4, .comps = n/a,},
{.usec = 256, .pkts = 5, .comps = n/a,}
tx-profile: n/a
3. Hint
If the device does not support some type of customized dim profiles,
the corresponding "n/a" will display.
If the "n/a" field is being modified, -EOPNOTSUPP will be reported.

This work refactors and adds a lightweight extension ("tcx") to the tc BPF
ingress and egress data path side for allowing BPF program management based
on fds via bpf() syscall through the newly added generic multi-prog API.
The main goal behind this work which we also presented at LPC [0] last year
and a recent update at LSF/MM/BPF this year [3] is to support long-awaited
BPF link functionality for tc BPF programs, which allows for a model of safe
ownership and program detachment.
Given the rise in tc BPF users in cloud native environments, this becomes
necessary to avoid hard to debug incidents either through stale leftover
programs or 3rd party applications accidentally stepping on each others toes.
As a recap, a BPF link represents the attachment of a BPF program to a BPF
hook point. The BPF link holds a single reference to keep BPF program alive.
Moreover, hook points do not reference a BPF link, only the application's
fd or pinning does. A BPF link holds meta-data specific to attachment and
implements operations for link creation, (atomic) BPF program update,
detachment and introspection. The motivation for BPF links for tc BPF programs
is multi-fold, for example:
- From Meta: "It's especially important for applications that are deployed
fleet-wide and that don't "control" hosts they are deployed to. If such
application crashes and no one notices and does anything about that, BPF
program will keep running draining resources or even just, say, dropping
packets. We at FB had outages due to such permanent BPF attachment
semantics. With fd-based BPF link we are getting a framework, which allows
safe, auto-detachable behavior by default, unless application explicitly
opts in by pinning the BPF link." [1]
- From Cilium-side the tc BPF programs we attach to host-facing veth devices
and phys devices build the core datapath for Kubernetes Pods, and they
implement forwarding, load-balancing, policy, EDT-management, etc, within
BPF. Currently there is no concept of 'safe' ownership, e.g. we've recently
experienced hard-to-debug issues in a user's staging environment where
another Kubernetes application using tc BPF attached to the same prio/handle
of cls_bpf, accidentally wiping all Cilium-based BPF programs from underneath
it. The goal is to establish a clear/safe ownership model via links which
cannot accidentally be overridden. [0,2]
BPF links for tc can co-exist with non-link attachments, and the semantics are
in line also with XDP links: BPF links cannot replace other BPF links, BPF
links cannot replace non-BPF links, non-BPF links cannot replace BPF links and
lastly only non-BPF links can replace non-BPF links. In case of Cilium, this
would solve mentioned issue of safe ownership model as 3rd party applications
would not be able to accidentally wipe Cilium programs, even if they are not
BPF link aware.
Earlier attempts [4] have tried to integrate BPF links into core tc machinery
to solve cls_bpf, which has been intrusive to the generic tc kernel API with
extensions only specific to cls_bpf and suboptimal/complex since cls_bpf could
be wiped from the qdisc also. Locking a tc BPF program in place this way, is
getting into layering hacks given the two object models are vastly different.
We instead implemented the tcx (tc 'express') layer which is an fd-based tc BPF
attach API, so that the BPF link implementation blends in naturally similar to
other link types which are fd-based and without the need for changing core tc
internal APIs. BPF programs for tc can then be successively migrated from classic
cls_bpf to the new tc BPF link without needing to change the program's source
code, just the BPF loader mechanics for attaching is sufficient.
For the current tc framework, there is no change in behavior with this change
and neither does this change touch on tc core kernel APIs. The gist of this
patch is that the ingress and egress hook have a lightweight, qdisc-less
extension for BPF to attach its tc BPF programs, in other words, a minimal
entry point for tc BPF. The name tcx has been suggested from discussion of
earlier revisions of this work as a good fit, and to more easily differ between
the classic cls_bpf attachment and the fd-based one.
For the ingress and egress tcx points, the device holds a cache-friendly array
with program pointers which is separated from control plane (slow-path) data.
Earlier versions of this work used priority to determine ordering and expression
of dependencies similar as with classic tc, but it was challenged that for
something more future-proof a better user experience is required. Hence this
resulted in the design and development of the generic attach/detach/query API
for multi-progs. See prior patch with its discussion on the API design. tcx is
the first user and later we plan to integrate also others, for example, one
candidate is multi-prog support for XDP which would benefit and have the same
'look and feel' from API perspective.
The goal with tcx is to have maximum compatibility to existing tc BPF programs,
so they don't need to be rewritten specifically. Compatibility to call into
classic tcf_classify() is also provided in order to allow successive migration
or both to cleanly co-exist where needed given its all one logical tc layer and
the tcx plus classic tc cls/act build one logical overall processing pipeline.
tcx supports the simplified return codes TCX_NEXT which is non-terminating (go
to next program) and terminating ones with TCX_PASS, TCX_DROP, TCX_REDIRECT.
The fd-based API is behind a static key, so that when unused the code is also
not entered. The struct tcx_entry's program array is currently static, but
could be made dynamic if necessary at a point in future. The a/b pair swap
design has been chosen so that for detachment there are no allocations which
otherwise could fail.
The work has been tested with tc-testing selftest suite which all passes, as
well as the tc BPF tests from the BPF CI, and also with Cilium's L4LB.
Thanks also to Nikolay Aleksandrov and Martin Lau for in-depth early reviews
of this work.

Busy polling is currently not allowed on PREEMPT_RT, because it disables
preemption while invoking the NAPI callback. It is not possible to acquire
sleeping locks with disabled preemption. For details see commit
20ab39d13e ("net/core: disable NET_RX_BUSY_POLL on PREEMPT_RT").
However, strict cyclic and/or low latency network applications may prefer busy
polling e.g., using AF_XDP instead of interrupt driven communication.
The preempt_disable() is used in order to prevent the poll_owner and NAPI owner
to be preempted while owning the resource to ensure progress. Netpoll performs
busy polling in order to acquire the lock. NAPI is locked by setting the
NAPIF_STATE_SCHED flag. There is no busy polling if the flag is set and the
"owner" is preempted. Worst case is that the task owning NAPI gets preempted and
NAPI processing stalls. This is can be prevented by properly prioritising the
tasks within the system.
Allow RX_BUSY_POLL on PREEMPT_RT if NETPOLL is disabled. Don't disable
preemption on PREEMPT_RT within the busy poll loop.
Tested on x86 hardware with v6.1-RT and v6.3-RT on Intel i225 (igc) with
AF_XDP/ZC sockets configured to run in busy polling mode.

When a kernel consumer needs a transport layer security session, it
first needs a handshake to negotiate and establish a session. This
negotiation can be done in user space via one of the several
existing library implementations, or it can be done in the kernel.
No in-kernel handshake implementations yet exist. In their absence,
we add a netlink service that can:
a. Notify a user space daemon that a handshake is needed.
b. Once notified, the daemon calls the kernel back via this
netlink service to get the handshake parameters, including an
open socket on which to establish the session.
c. Once the handshake is complete, the daemon reports the
session status and other information via a second netlink
operation. This operation marks that it is safe for the
kernel to use the open socket and the security session
established there.
The notification service uses a multicast group. Each handshake
mechanism (eg, tlshd) adopts its own group number so that the
handshake services are completely independent of one another. The
kernel can then tell via netlink_has_listeners() whether a handshake
service is active and prepared to handle a handshake request.
A new netlink operation, ACCEPT, acts like accept(2) in that it
instantiates a file descriptor in the user space daemon's fd table.
If this operation is successful, the reply carries the fd number,
which can be treated as an open and ready file descriptor.
While user space is performing the handshake, the kernel keeps its
muddy paws off the open socket. A second new netlink operation,
DONE, indicates that the user space daemon is finished with the
socket and it is safe for the kernel to use again. The operation
also indicates whether a session was established successfully.

Currently, MAX_SKB_FRAGS value is 17.
For standard tcp sendmsg() traffic, no big deal because tcp_sendmsg()
attempts order-3 allocations, stuffing 32768 bytes per frag.
But with zero copy, we use order-0 pages.
For BIG TCP to show its full potential, we add a config option
to be able to fit up to 45 segments per skb.
This is also needed for BIG TCP rx zerocopy, as zerocopy currently
does not support skbs with frag list.
We have used MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45 value for years at Google before
we deployed 4K MTU, with no adverse effect, other than
a recent issue in mlx4, fixed in commit 26782aad00
("net/mlx4: MLX4_TX_BOUNCE_BUFFER_SIZE depends on MAX_SKB_FRAGS")
Back then, goal was to be able to receive full size (64KB) GRO
packets without the frag_list overhead.
Note that /proc/sys/net/core/max_skb_frags can also be used to limit
the number of fragments TCP can use in tx packets.
By default we keep the old/legacy value of 17 until we get
more coverage for the updated values.
Sizes of struct skb_shared_info on 64bit arches
MAX_SKB_FRAGS | sizeof(struct skb_shared_info):
==============================================
17 320
21 320+64 = 384
25 320+128 = 448
29 320+192 = 512
33 320+256 = 576
37 320+320 = 640
41 320+384 = 704
45 320+448 = 768
This inflation might cause problems for drivers assuming they could pack
both the incoming packet (for MTU=1500) and skb_shared_info in half a page,
using build_skb().

sleeping locks with disabled preemption which would be required while

A threaded interrupt performing the NAPI-poll can be preempted on PREEMPT_RT.
A RT thread on another CPU may observe NAPIF_STATE_SCHED bit set and busy-spin
until it is cleared or its spin time runs out. Given it is the task with the
highest priority it will never observe the NEED_RESCHED bit set.
In this case the time is better spent by simply sleeping.

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

WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks

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.

Convert drop monitor to use the recently introduced
'devlink_trap_report' tracepoint instead of having devlink call into
drop monitor.
This is both consistent with software originated drops ('kfree_skb'
tracepoint) and also allows drop monitor to be built as a module and
still report hardware originated drops.

This patch adds skb_set_redirected() that sets on the redirected bit

and resets the timestamp (timestamp reset was originally missing in the
netfilter bugfix).

Implements the infrastructure for MPTCP sockets.
MPTCP sockets open one in-kernel TCP socket per subflow. These subflow
sockets are only managed by the MPTCP socket that owns them and are not
visible from userspace. This commit allows a userspace program to open
an MPTCP socket with:
sock = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_MPTCP);
The resulting socket is simply a wrapper around a single regular TCP
socket, without any of the MPTCP protocol implemented over the wire.

with one or more time stamping channels, each of which sits snoops in

Add the basic packet trap infrastructure that allows device drivers to
register their supported packet traps and trap groups with devlink.
Each driver is expected to provide basic information about each
supported trap, such as name and ID, but also the supported metadata
types that will accompany each packet trapped via the trap. The
currently supported metadata type is just the input port, but more will
be added in the future. For example, output port and traffic class.
Trap groups allow users to set the action of all member traps. In
addition, users can retrieve per-group statistics in case per-trap
statistics are too narrow. In the future, the trap group object can be
extended with more attributes, such as policer settings which will limit
the amount of traffic generated by member traps towards the CPU.
Beside registering their packet traps with devlink, drivers are also
expected to report trapped packets to devlink along with relevant
metadata. devlink will maintain packets and bytes statistics for each
packet trap and will potentially report the trapped packet with its
metadata to user space via drop monitor netlink channel.
The interface towards the drivers is simple and allows devlink to set
the action of the trap. Currently, only two actions are supported:
'trap' and 'drop'. When set to 'trap', the device is expected to provide
the sole copy of the packet to the driver which will pass it to devlink.
When set to 'drop', the device is expected to drop the packet and not
send a copy to the driver. In the future, more actions can be added,
such as 'mirror'.

Using a bare block cipher in non-crypto code is almost always a bad idea,
not only for security reasons (and we've seen some examples of this in
the kernel in the past), but also for performance reasons.
In the TCP fastopen case, we call into the bare AES block cipher one or
two times (depending on whether the connection is IPv4 or IPv6). On most
systems, this results in a call chain such as
crypto_cipher_encrypt_one(ctx, dst, src)
crypto_cipher_crt(tfm)->cit_encrypt_one(crypto_cipher_tfm(tfm), ...);
aesni_encrypt
kernel_fpu_begin();
aesni_enc(ctx, dst, src); // asm routine
kernel_fpu_end();
It is highly unlikely that the use of special AES instructions has a
benefit in this case, especially since we are doing the above twice
for IPv6 connections, instead of using a transform which can process
the entire input in one go.
We could switch to the cbcmac(aes) shash, which would at least get
rid of the duplicated overhead in *some* cases (i.e., today, only
arm64 has an accelerated implementation of cbcmac(aes), while x86 will
end up using the generic cbcmac template wrapping the AES-NI cipher,
which basically ends up doing exactly the above). However, in the given
context, it makes more sense to use a light-weight MAC algorithm that
is more suitable for the purpose at hand, such as SipHash.
Since the output size of SipHash already matches our chosen value for
TCP_FASTOPEN_COOKIE_SIZE, and given that it accepts arbitrary input
sizes, this greatly simplifies the code as well.
NOTE: Server farms backing a single server IP for load balancing purposes
and sharing a single fastopen key will be adversely affected by
this change unless all systems in the pool receive their kernel
upgrades at the same time.

This adds an optional extension infrastructure, with ispec (xfrm) and
bridge netfilter as first users.
objdiff shows no changes if kernel is built without xfrm and br_netfilter
support.
The third (planned future) user is Multipath TCP which is still
out-of-tree.
MPTCP needs to map logical mptcp sequence numbers to the tcp sequence
numbers used by individual subflows.
This DSS mapping is read/written from tcp option space on receive and
written to tcp option space on transmitted tcp packets that are part of
and MPTCP connection.
Extending skb_shared_info or adding a private data field to skb fclones
doesn't work for incoming skb, so a different DSS propagation method would
be required for the receive side.
mptcp has same requirements as secpath/bridge netfilter:
1. extension memory is released when the sk_buff is free'd.
2. data is shared after cloning an skb (clone inherits extension)
3. adding extension to an skb will COW the extension buffer if needed.
The "MPTCP upstreaming" effort adds SKB_EXT_MPTCP extension to store the
mapping for tx and rx processing.
Two new members are added to sk_buff:
1. 'active_extensions' byte (filling a hole), telling which extensions
are available for this skb.
This has two purposes.
a) avoids the need to initialize the pointer.
b) allows to "delete" an extension by clearing its bit
value in ->active_extensions.
While it would be possible to store the active_extensions byte
in the extension struct instead of sk_buff, there is one problem
with this:
When an extension has to be disabled, we can always clear the
bit in skb->active_extensions. But in case it would be stored in the
extension buffer itself, we might have to COW it first, if
we are dealing with a cloned skb. On kmalloc failure we would
be unable to turn an extension off.
2. extension pointer, located at the end of the sk_buff.
If the active_extensions byte is 0, the pointer is undefined,
it is not initialized on skb allocation.
This adds extra code to skb clone and free paths (to deal with
refcount/free of extension area) but this replaces similar code that
manages skb->nf_bridge and skb->sp structs in the followup patches of
the series.
It is possible to add support for extensions that are not preseved on
clones/copies.
To do this, it would be needed to define a bitmask of all extensions that
need copy/cow semantics, and change __skb_ext_copy() to check
->active_extensions & SKB_EXT_PRESERVE_ON_CLONE, then just set
->active_extensions to 0 on the new clone.
This isn't done here because all extensions that get added here
need the copy/cow semantics.
v2:
Allocate entire extension space using kmem_cache.
Upside is that this allows better tracking of used memory,
downside is that we will allocate more space than strictly needed in
most cases (its unlikely that all extensions are active/needed at same
time for same skb).
The allocated memory (except the small extension header) is not cleared,
so no additonal overhead aside from memory usage.
Avoid atomic_dec_and_test operation on skb_ext_put()
by using similar trick as kfree_skbmem() does with fclone_ref:
If recount is 1, there is no concurrent user and we can free right away.

Add a generic sk_msg layer, and convert current sockmap and later
kTLS over to make use of it. While sk_buff handles network packet
representation from netdevice up to socket, sk_msg handles data
representation from application to socket layer.
This means that sk_msg framework spans across ULP users in the
kernel, and enables features such as introspection or filtering
of data with the help of BPF programs that operate on this data
structure.
Latter becomes in particular useful for kTLS where data encryption
is deferred into the kernel, and as such enabling the kernel to
perform L7 introspection and policy based on BPF for TLS connections
where the record is being encrypted after BPF has run and came to
a verdict. In order to get there, first step is to transform open
coding of scatter-gather list handling into a common core framework
that subsystems can use.
The code itself has been split and refactored into three bigger
pieces: i) the generic sk_msg API which deals with managing the
scatter gather ring, providing helpers for walking and mangling,
transferring application data from user space into it, and preparing
it for BPF pre/post-processing, ii) the plain sock map itself
where sockets can be attached to or detached from; these bits
are independent of i) which can now be used also without sock
map, and iii) the integration with plain TCP as one protocol
to be used for processing L7 application data (later this could
e.g. also be extended to other protocols like UDP). The semantics
are the same with the old sock map code and therefore no change
of user facing behavior or APIs. While pursuing this work it
also helped finding a number of bugs in the old sockmap code
that we've fixed already in earlier commits. The test_sockmap
kselftest suite passes through fine as well.

This enables paravirtual drivers to use a VF as an accelerated low latency

bpfilter.ko consists of bpfilter_kern.c (normal kernel module code)
and user mode helper code that is embedded into bpfilter.ko
The steps to build bpfilter.ko are the following:
- main.c is compiled by HOSTCC into the bpfilter_umh elf executable file
- with quite a bit of objcopy and Makefile magic the bpfilter_umh elf file
is converted into bpfilter_umh.o object file
with _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_start and _end symbols
Example:
$ nm ./bld_x64/net/bpfilter/bpfilter_umh.o
0000000000004cf8 T _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_end
0000000000004cf8 A _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_size
0000000000000000 T _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_start
- bpfilter_umh.o and bpfilter_kern.o are linked together into bpfilter.ko
bpfilter_kern.c is a normal kernel module code that calls
the fork_usermode_blob() helper to execute part of its own data
as a user mode process.
Notice that _binary_net_bpfilter_bpfilter_umh_start - end
is placed into .init.rodata section, so it's freed as soon as __init
function of bpfilter.ko is finished.
As part of __init the bpfilter.ko does first request/reply action
via two unix pipe provided by fork_usermode_blob() helper to
make sure that umh is healthy. If not it will kill it via pid.
Later bpfilter_process_sockopt() will be called from bpfilter hooks
in get/setsockopt() to pass iptable commands into umh via bpfilter.ko
If admin does 'rmmod bpfilter' the __exit code bpfilter.ko will
kill umh as well.
