tipc: simplify packet sequence number handling
Although the sequence number in the TIPC protocol is 16 bits, we have
until now stored it internally as an unsigned 32 bits integer.
We got around this by always doing explicit modulo-65535 operations
whenever we need to access a sequence number.
We now make the incoming and outgoing sequence numbers to unsigned
16-bit integers, and remove the modulo operations where applicable.
We also move the arithmetic inline functions for 16 bit integers
to core.h, and the function buf_seqno() to msg.h, so they can easily
be accessed from anywhere in the code.

tipc: simplify include dependencies
When we try to add new inline functions in the code, we sometimes
run into circular include dependencies.
The main problem is that the file core.h, which really should be at
the root of the dependency chain, instead is a leaf. I.e., core.h
includes a number of header files that themselves should be allowed
to include core.h. In reality this is unnecessary, because core.h does
not need to know the full signature of any of the structs it refers to,
only their type declaration.
In this commit, we remove all dependencies from core.h towards any
other tipc header file.
As a consequence of this change, we can now move the function
tipc_own_addr(net) from addr.c to addr.h, and make it inline.
There are no functional changes in this commit.

tipc: simplify link timer handling
Prior to this commit, the link timer has been running at a "continuity
interval" of configured link tolerance/4. When a timer wakes up and
discovers that there has been no sign of life from the peer during the
previous interval, it divides its own timer interval by another factor
four, and starts sending one probe per new interval. When the configured
link tolerance time has passed without answer, i.e. after 16 unacked
probes, the link is declared faulty and reset.
This is unnecessary complex. It is sufficient to continue with the
original continuity interval, and instead reset the link after four
missed probe responses. This makes the timer handling in the link
simpler, and opens up for some planned later changes in this area.
This commit implements this change.

be2net: Support for OS2BMC.
OS2BMC feature will allow the server to communicate with the on-board
BMC/idrac (Baseboard Management Controller) over the LOM via
standard Ethernet.
When OS2BMC feature is enabled, the LOM will filter traffic coming
from the host. If the destination MAC address matches the iDRAC MAC
address, it will forward the packet to the NC-SI side band interface
for iDRAC processing. Otherwise, it would send it out on the wire to
the external network. Broadcast and multicast packets are sent on the
side-band NC-SI channel and on the wire as well. Some of the packet
filters are not supported in the NIC and hence driver will identify
such packets and will hint the NIC to send those packets to the BMC.
This is done by duplicating packets on the management ring. Packets
are sent to the management ring, by setting mgmt bit in the wrb header.
The NIC will forward the packets on the management ring to the BMC
through the side-band NC-SI channel.

====================
Netfilter ingress support (v4)
This is the v4 round of patches to add the Netfilter ingress hook, it basically
comes in two steps:
1) Add the CONFIG_NET_INGRESS switch to wrap the ingress static key around it.
The idea is to use the same global static key to avoid adding more code to
the hot path.
2) Add the Netfilter ingress hook after the tc ingress hook, under the global
ingress_needed static key. As I said, the netfilter ingress hook also has
its own static key, that is nested under the global static key. Please, see
patch 5/5 for performance numbers and more information.
I originally started this next round, as it was suggested, exploring the
independent static key for netfilter ingress just after tc ingress, but the
results that I gathered from that patch are not good for non-users:
Result: OK:
6425927(

15561955pps 7469Mb/sec (7469738400bps) errors:
100000000
this roughly means 500Kpps less performance wrt. the base numbers, so that's
the reason why I discarded that approach and I focused on this.
The idea of this patchset is to open the window to nf_tables, which comes with
features that will work out-of-the-box (once the boiler plate code to support
the 'netdev' table family is in place), to avoid repeating myself [1], the most
relevant features are:
1) Multi-dimensional key dictionary lookups.
2) Arbitrary stateful flow tables.
3) Transactions and good support for dynamic updates.
But there are also interest aspects to consider from userspace, such as the
ability to support new layer 2 protocols without kernel updates, a well-defined
netlink interface, userspace libraries and utilities for third party
applications, among others.
I hope we can be happy with this approach.
Please, apply. Thanks.

I can see gcc gets the code under the ingress static key out of the hot path.
Then, on that cold branch, it generates the code to accomodate the netfilter
ingress static key. My explanation for this is that this reduces the pressure
on the instruction cache for non-users as the new code is out of the hot path,
and it comes with minimal impact for tc ingress users.

The overall structure of the GENEVE netdev driver is strongly
influenced by the VXLAN netdev driver. This is not surprising, as the
two drivers are intended to serve similar purposes. As development of
the GENEVE driver continues, it is likely that those similarities will
grow stronger. This will include both simple configuration options
(e.g. TOS and TTL settings) and new control plane support.
The current implementation is very simple, restricting itself to point
to point links over IPv4. This is due only to the simplicity of the
implementation, and no such limit is inherent to GENEVE in any way.
Support for IPv6 links and more sophisticated control plane options
are predictable enhancements.
Using the included iproute2 patch, a GENEVE tunnel is created thusly:
ip link add dev gnv0 type geneve remote 192.168.22.1 vni 1234
ip link set gnv0 up
ip addr add 10.1.1.1/24 dev gnv0
After a corresponding tunnel interface is created at the link partner,
traffic should proceed as expected.

Willem de Bruijn says:
====================
refine packet socket rollover:
1. mitigate a case of lock contention
2. avoid exporting resource exhaustion to other sockets,
by migrating only to a victim socket that has ample room
3. avoid reordering of most flows on the socket,
by migrating first the flow responsible for load imbalance
4. help processes detect load imbalance,
by exporting rollover counters
Context: rollover implements flow migration in packet socket fanout
groups in case of extreme load imbalance. It is a specific
implementation of migration that minimizes reordering by selecting
the same victim socket when possible (and by selecting subsequent
victims in a round robin fashion, from which its name derives).
Changes:
v2 -> v3:
- statistics: replace unsigned long with __aligned_u64
v1 -> v2:
- huge flow detection: run lockless
- huge flow detection: replace stored index with random
- contention avoidance: test in packet_poll while lock held
- contention avoidance: clear pressure sooner
packet_poll and packet_recvmsg would clear only if the sock
is empty to avoid taking the necessary lock. But,
* packet_poll already holds this lock, so a lockless variant
__packet_rcv_has_room is cheap.
* packet_recvmsg is usually called only for non-ring sockets,
which also runs lockless.
- preparation: drop "single return" patch
packet_rcv_has_room is now a locked wrapper around

defined as taking up more than half the load. It does so cheaply, by

packet: rollover lock contention avoidance
Rollover has to call packet_rcv_has_room on sockets in the fanout
group to find a socket to migrate to. This operation is expensive
especially if the packet sockets use rings, when a lock has to be
acquired.
Avoid pounding on the lock by all sockets by temporarily marking a
socket as "under memory pressure" when such pressure is detected.
While set, only the socket owner may call packet_rcv_has_room on the
socket. Once it detects normal conditions, it clears the flag. The
socket is not used as a victim by any other socket in the meantime.
Under reasonably balanced load, each socket writer frequently calls
packet_rcv_has_room and clears its own pressure field. As a backup
for when the socket is rarely written to, also clear the flag on
reading (packet_recvmsg, packet_poll) if this can be done cheaply
(i.e., without calling packet_rcv_has_room). This is only for
edge cases.
Tested:
Ran bench_rollover: a process with 8 sockets in a single fanout
group, each pinned to a single cpu that receives one nic recv
interrupt. RPS and RFS are disabled. The benchmark uses packet
rx_ring, which has to take a lock when determining whether a
socket has room.
Sent 3.5 Mpps of UDP traffic with sufficient entropy to spread
uniformly across the packet sockets (and inserted an iptables
rule to drop in PREROUTING to avoid protocol stack processing).
Without this patch, all sockets try to migrate traffic to
neighbors, causing lock contention when searching for a non-
empty neighbor. The lock is the top 9 entries.

packet: rollover only to socket with headroom
Only migrate flows to sockets that have sufficient headroom, where
sufficient is defined as having at least 25% empty space.
The kernel has three different buffer types: a regular socket, a ring
with frames (TPACKET_V[12]) or a ring with blocks (TPACKET_V3). The
latter two do not expose a read pointer to the kernel, so headroom is
not computed easily. All three needs a different implementation to
estimate free space.
Tested:
Ran bench_rollover for 10 sec with 1.5 Mpps of single flow input.
bench_rollover has as many sockets as there are NIC receive queues
in the system. Each socket is owned by a process that is pinned to
one of the receive cpus. RFS is disabled. RPS is enabled with an
identity mapping (cpu x -> cpu x), to count drops with softnettop.

Note that this dissector can be also eventually used by openvswitch code.
Also, as a next step, I plan to get rid of *skb_flow_get_ports(export)

Merge branch 'switchdev_spring_cleanup'
Scott Feldman says:
====================
switchdev: spring cleanup
v7:
Address review comments:
- [Jiri] split the br_setlink and br_dellink reverts into their own patches
- [Jiri] some parameter cleanup of rocker's memory allocators
- [Jiri] pass trans mode as formal parameter rather than hanging off of
rocker_port.
v6:
Address review comments:
- [Jiri] split a couple of patches into one-logical-change per patch
- [Joe Perches] revert checkpatch -f changes for wrapped lines with long
symbols.
v5:
Address review comments:
- [Jiri] include Jiri's s/swdev/switchdev rename patches up front.
- [Jiri] squash some patches. Now setlink/dellink/getlink patches are in
three parts: new implementation, convert drivers to new, delete old impl.
- [Jiri] some minor variable renames
- [Jiri] use BUG_ON rather than WARN when COMMIT phase fails when PREPARE
phase said it was safe to come into the water.
- [Simon] rocker: fix a few transaction prepare-commit cases that were wrong.
This was the bulk of the changes in v5.
v4:
Well, it was a lot of work, but now prepare-commit transaction model is how
davem advises: if prepare fails, abort the transaction. The driver must do
resource reservations up front in prepare phase and return those resources if
aborting. Commit phase would use reserved resources. The good news is the
driver code (for rocker) now handles resource allocation failures better by not
leaving partially device or driver states. This is a side-effect of the
prepare phase where state isn't modified; only validation of inputs and
resource reservations happen in the prepare phase. Since we're supporting
setting attrs and add objs across lower devs in the stacked case, we need to
hold rtnl_lock (or ensure rtnl_lock is held) so lower devs don't move on us
during the prepare-commit transaction. DSA driver code skips the prepare phase
and goes straight for the commit phase since no up-front allocations are done
and no device failures (that could be detected in the prepare phase) can
happen.
Remove NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD from rocker and the swdev_attr_set/get
wrappers. DSA doesn't set NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD, so it can't be in
swdev_attr_set/get. rocker doesn't need it; or rather can't support
NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD being set/cleared at run-time after the device
port is already up and offloading L2/L3. NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD is still
left as a feature flag for drivers that can use it.
Drop the renaming patch for netdev_switch_notifier. Other renames are a
result of moving to the attr get/set or obj add/del model. Everything
but the netdev_switch_notifier is still prefixed with "swdev_".
v3:
Move to two-phase prepare-commit transaction model for attr set and obj add.
Driver gets a change in prepare phase to NACK transaction if lack of resources
or support in device.
v2:
Address review comments:
- [Jiri] squash a few related patches
- [Roopa] don't remove NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD
- [Roopa] address VLAN setlink/dellink
- [Ronen] print warning is attr set revert fails
Not address:
- Using something other than "swdev_" prefix
- Vendor extentions
The patch set grew a bit to not only support port attr get/set but also add
support for port obj add/del. Example of port objs are VLAN, FDB entries, and
FIB entries. The VLAN support now allows the swdev driver to get VLAN ranges
and flags like PVID and "untagged". Sridhar will be adding FDB obj support
in follow-on patch.
v1:
The main theme of this patch set is to cleanup swdev in preparation for
new features or fixes to be added soon. We have a pretty good idea now how
to handle stacked drivers in swdev, but there where some loose ends. For
example, if a set failed in the middle of walking the lower devs, we would
leave the system in an undefined state...there was no way to recover back to
the previous state. Speaking of sets, also recognize a pattern that most
swdev API accesses are gets or sets of port attributes, so go ahead and make
port attr get/set the central swdev API, and convert everything that is
set-ish/get-ish to this new API.
Features/fixes that should follow from this cleanup:
- solve the duplicate pkt forwarding issue
- get/set bridge attrs, like ageing_time, from/to device
- get/set more bridge port attrs from/to device
There are some rename cleanups tagging along at the end, to give swdev
consistent naming.
And finally, some much needed updates to the switchdev.txt documentation to
hopefully capture the state-of-the-art of swdev. Hopefully, we can do a better
job keeping this document up-to-date.
Tested with rocker, of course, to make sure nothing functional broke. There
are a couple minor tweaks to DSA code for getting switch ID and setting STP
updates to use new API, but not expecting amy breakage there.

bridge set link cmd defaults to MASTER. From man page for bridge link set
cmd:
self link setting is configured on specified physical device
master link setting is configured on the software bridge (default)
The link setting has two values: the device-side value and the software
bridge-side value. These are independent and settable using the bridge
link set cmd by specifying some combination of [master] | [self].
Furthermore, the device-side and bridge-side settings have their own
initial value, viewable from bridge -d link show cmd.
Restoring br_setlink back to original makes rocker (the only in-kernel user
of SELF link settings) work as first implement: two-sided values.
It's true that when both MASTER and SELF are specified from the command,
two netlink notifications are generated, one for each side of the settings.
The user-space app can distiquish between the two notifications by

switchdev: add port vlan obj
VLAN obj has flags (PVID and untagged) as well as start and end vid ranges.
The switchdev driver can optimize programing the device using the ranges.

switchdev: introduce switchdev add/del obj ops
Like switchdev attr get/set, add new switchdev obj add/del. switchdev objs
will be things like VLANs or FIB entries, so add/del fits better for
objects than get/set used for attributes.
Use same two-phase prepare-commit transaction model as in attr set.
