Richard Cochran 215b13dd28 ptp: add an ioctl to compare PHC time with system time
This patch adds an ioctl for PTP Hardware Clock (PHC) devices that allows
user space to measure the time offset between the PHC and the system
clock. Rather than hard coding any kind of estimation algorithm into the
kernel, this patch takes the more flexible approach of just delivering
an array of raw clock readings. In that way, the user space clock servo
may be adapted to new and different hardware clocks.

Ben Hutchings a24006ed12 ptp: Enable clock drivers along with associated net/PHY drivers
Where a PTP clock driver is associated with a net or PHY driver, it
should be enabled automatically whenever that driver is enabled.
Therefore:

- Make PTP clock drivers select rather than depending on PTP_1588_CLOCK
- Remove separate boolean options for PTP clock drivers that are built
  as part of net driver modules.  (This also fixes cases where the PTP
  subsystem is wrongly forced to be built-in.)
- Set 'default y' for PTP clock drivers that depend on specific net
  drivers but are built separately

Ben Hutchings 42a7ccef0a ptp: Make PTP_1588_CLOCK select rather than depend on PPS
PTP hardware clock drivers that select PTP_1588_CLOCK must currently
also select PPS.  For those drivers that don't, the user must enable
PPS, then enable PTP_1588_CLOCK, then the driver.  Simplify things for
developers and users by putting this selection in one place.

Pavel Emelyanov a8fc927780 sk-filter: Add ability to get socket filter program (v2)
The SO_ATTACH_FILTER option is set only. I propose to add the get
ability by using SO_ATTACH_FILTER in getsockopt. To be less
irritating to eyes the SO_GET_FILTER alias to it is declared. This
ability is required by checkpoint-restore project to be able to
save full state of a socket.

There are two issues with getting filter back.

First, kernel modifies the sock_filter->code on filter load, thus in
order to return the filter element back to user we have to decode it
into user-visible constants. Fortunately the modification in question
is interconvertible.

Second, the BPF_S_ALU_DIV_K code modifies the command argument k to
speed up the run-time division by doing kernel_k = reciprocal(user_k).
Bad news is that different user_k may result in same kernel_k, so we
can't get the original user_k back. Good news is that we don't have
to do it. What we need to is calculate a user2_k so, that

  reciprocal(user2_k) == reciprocal(user_k) == kernel_k

i.e. if it's re-loaded back the compiled again value will be exactly
the same as it was. That said, the user2_k can be calculated like this

  user2_k = reciprocal(kernel_k)

with an exception, that if kernel_k == 0, then user2_k == 1.

The optlen argument is treated like this -- when zero, kernel returns
the amount of sock_fprog elements in filter, otherwise it should be
large enough for the sock_fprog array.

changes since v1:
* Declared SO_GET_FILTER in all arch headers
* Added decode of vlan-tag codes

Jason Wang 96442e4242 tuntap: choose the txq based on rxq
This patch implements a simple multiqueue flow steering policy - tx follows rx
for tun/tap. The idea is simple, it just choose the txq based on which rxq it
comes. The flow were identified through the rxhash of a skb, and the hash to
queue mapping were recorded in a hlist with an ageing timer to retire the
mapping. The mapping were created when tun receives packet from userspace, and
was quired in .ndo_select_queue().

I run co-current TCP_CRR test and didn't see any mapping manipulation helpers in
perf top, so the overhead could be negelected.

Jason Wang cde8b15f1a tuntap: add ioctl to attach or detach a file form tuntap device
Sometimes usespace may need to active/deactive a queue, this could be done by
detaching and attaching a file from tuntap device.

this. Flag IFF_ATTACH_QUEUE were introduced to do attaching while
IFF_DETACH_QUEUE were introduced to do the detaching.

Jason Wang c8d68e6be1 tuntap: multiqueue support
This patch converts tun/tap to a multiqueue devices and expose the multiqueue
queues as multiple file descriptors to userspace. Internally, each tun_file were
abstracted as a queue, and an array of pointers to tun_file structurs were
stored in tun_structure device, so multiple tun_files were allowed to be
attached to the device as multiple queues.

When choosing txq, we first try to identify a flow through its rxhash, if it
does not have such one, we could try recorded rxq and then use them to choose
the transmit queue. This policy may be changed in the future.

Jason Wang 6e914fc707 tuntap: RCUify dereferencing between tun_struct and tun_file
RCU were introduced in this patch to synchronize the dereferences between
tun_struct and tun_file. All tun_{get|put} were replaced with RCU, the
dereference from one to other must be done under rtnl lock or rcu read critical
region.

This is needed for the following patches since the one of the goal of multiqueue
tuntap is to allow adding or removing queues during workload. Without RCU,
control path would hold tx locks when adding or removing queues (which may cause
sme delay) and it's hard to change the number of queues without stopping the net
device. With the help of rcu, there's also no need for tun_file hold an refcnt
to tun_struct.

Jason Wang 54f968d6ef tuntap: move socket to tun_file
Current tuntap makes use of the socket receive queue as its tx queue. To
implement multiple tx queues for tuntap and enable the ability of adding and
removing queues during workload, the first step is to move the socket related
structures to tun_file. Then we could let multiple fds/sockets to be attached to
the tuntap.

This patch removes tun_sock and moves socket related structures from tun_sock or
tun_struct to tun_file. Two exceptions are tap_filter and sock_fprog, they are
still kept in tun_structure since they are used to filter packets for the net
device instead of per transmit queue (at least I see no requirements for
them). After those changes, socket were created and destroyed during file open
and close (instead of device creation and destroy), the socket structures could
be dereferenced from tun_file instead of the file of tun_struct structure
itself.

For persisent device, since we purge during datching and wouldn't queue any
packets when no interface were attached, there's no behaviod changes before and
after this patch, so the changes were transparent to the userspace. To keep the
attributes such as sndbuf, socket filter and vnet header, those would be
re-initialize after a new interface were attached to an persist device.

SKF_AD_VLAN_TAG_PRESENT (48) mapped to vlan_tx_tag_present(skb)

This allows libpcap/tcpdump to use a kernel filter instead of
having to fallback to accept all packets, then filter them in

Willem de Bruijn ecd5cf5dc5 net: compute skb->rxhash if nic hash may be 3-tuple
Network device drivers can communicate a Toeplitz hash in skb->rxhash,
but devices differ in their hashing capabilities. All compute a 5-tuple
hash for TCP over IPv4, but for other connection-oriented protocols,
they may compute only a 3-tuple. This breaks RPS load balancing, e.g.,
for TCP over IPv6 flows. Additionally, for GRE and other tunnels,
the kernel computes a 5-tuple hash over the inner packet if possible,
but devices do not.

This patch recomputes the rxhash in software in all cases where it
cannot be certain that a 5-tuple was computed. Device drivers can avoid
recomputation by setting the skb->l4_rxhash flag.

Recomputing adds cycles to each packet when RPS is enabled or the
packet arrives over a tunnel. A comparison of 200x TCP_STREAM between
two servers running unmodified netnext with rxhash computation
in hardware vs software (using ethtool -K eth0 rxhash [on|off]) shows
how much time is spent in __skb_get_rxhash in this worst case:

     0.03%          swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash
     0.03%          swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash
     0.05%          swapper  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash

With 200x TCP_RR it increases to

     0.10%          netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash
     0.10%          netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash
     0.10%          netperf  [kernel.kallsyms]     [k] __skb_get_rxhash

I considered having the patch explicitly skips recomputation when it knows
that it will not improve the hash (TCP over IPv4), but that conditional
complicates code without saving many cycles in practice, because it has
to take place after flow dissector.

John Fastabend 2469ffd723 net: set and query VEB/VEPA bridge mode via PF_BRIDGE
Hardware switches may support enabling and disabling the
loopback switch which puts the device in a VEPA mode defined
in the IEEE 802.1Qbg specification. In this mode frames are
not switched in the hardware but sent directly to the switch.
SR-IOV capable NICs will likely support this mode I am
aware of at least two such devices. Also I am told (but don't
have any of this hardware available) that there are devices
that only support VEPA modes. In these cases it is important
at a minimum to be able to query these attributes.

This patch adds an additional IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute that can be
set and dumped via the PF_BRIDGE:{SET|GET}LINK operations. Also
anticipating bridge attributes that may be common for both embedded
bridges and software bridges this adds a flags attribute
IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS currently used to determine if the command or event
is being generated to/from an embedded bridge or software bridge.
Finally, the event generation is pulled out of the bridge module and
into rtnetlink proper.

For example using the macvlan driver in VEPA mode on top of
an embedded switch requires putting the embedded switch into
a VEPA mode to get the expected results.

	--------  --------
        | VEPA |  | VEPA |       <-- macvlan vepa edge relays
        --------  --------
           |        |
           |        |
        ------------------
        |      VEPA      |       <-- embedded switch in NIC
        ------------------
                |
                |
        -------------------
        | external switch |      <-- shiny new physical
	-------------------          switch with VEPA support

A packet sent from the macvlan VEPA at the top could be
loopbacked on the embedded switch and never seen by the
external switch. So in order for this to work the embedded
switch needs to be set in the VEPA state via the above
described commands.

By making these attributes nested in IFLA_AF_SPEC we allow
future extensions to be made as needed.

Jiri Benc f42df16756 ixgbe: reduce PTP rx path overhead
Hw timestamping code caused performance regression in ixgbe driver when the
timestamping is not enabled. The culprit is IXGBE_READ_REG call in the Rx
path which is executed for every received skb. This call is not needed when
the timestamping is disabled or for non-ptp packets.

netperf results:

The ixgbe side of the connection was acting as a server, the netperf command
line on the other side was:
netperf -H 192.168.1.23 -T0,0 -t UDP_STREAM -l 20

The values below mean throughput as reported by netperf (local/remote), for
3 runs, with timestamping not enabled.

Alexander Duyck f4de00ed58 ixgbe: Do not decrement budget in ixgbe_clean_rx_irq
This change makes it so that compare the total_rx_packets cleaned to budget
instead of decrementing budget.  The advantage to this approach is that budget
can now be const and we only end up modifying total_rx_packets instead of
modifying both it and budget.

John Fastabend b3343a2a2c net, ixgbe: handle link local multicast addresses in SR-IOV mode
In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is
used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc.

   eth0.1     eth0.2     eth0
   VF         VF         PF
   |          |          |   <-- stand-in for uplink
   |          |          |
  --------------------------
  |  Embedded Switch       |
  --------------------------
              |
             MAC   <-- uplink

But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses
to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link.
This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols
to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF.

In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently
being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer.
This is incorrect.

This patch adds the multicast addresses to the RAR table in the
hardware to prevent this behavior.

Since this patch accomplishes this by modifying AUTOC.LMS we need to wrap
all AUTOC writes when LESM is enabled.

Antonio Quartulli 7f91d06c90 batman-adv: pass the WIFI flag from the local to global entry
in case of client roaming a new global entry is added while a corresponding
local one is still present. In this case the node can safely pass the WIFI flag
from the local to the global entry.

This change is required to let the AP-isolation correctly working in case of
roaming: if a generic WIFI client C roams from node A to B, A adds a global
entry for C without adding any WIFI flag. The latter will be set only later,
once A has received C's advertisement from B. In this time period the
AP-Isolation (if enabled) would not correctly work since C is not marked as
WIFI, so allowing it to communicate with other WIFI clients.

Moreover, since this message will appear for each rerouted message, it is now
