net: Add eth_platform_get_mac_address() helper. A repeating pattern in drivers has become to use OF node information and, if not found, platform specific host information to extract the ethernet address for a given device. Currently this is done with a call to of_get_mac_address() and then some ifdef'd stuff for SPARC.

dsa: add support for original DSA tagging format Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added support for, but only the original DSA tagging format. The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not have an ethertype field. In other words, when receiving a packet that is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet. This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format. If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place.

net: make default TX queue length a defined constant The default TX queue length of Ethernet devices have been a magic constant of 1000, ever since the initial git import. Looking back in historical trees[1][2] the value used to be 100, with the same comment "Ethernet wants good queues". The commit[3] that changed this from 100 to 1000 didn't describe why, but from conversations with Robert Olsson it seems that it was changed when Ethernet devices went from 100Mbit/s to 1Gbit/s, because the link speed increased x10 the queue size were also adjusted. This value later caused much heartache for the bufferbloat community. This patch merely moves the value into a defined constant.

[NET] ethernet: Fix first packet goes out with MAC 00:00:00:00:00:00 When you turn off ARP on a netdevice then the first packet always goes out with a dstMAC of all zeroes. This is because the first packet is used to resolve ARP entries. Even though the ARP entry may be resolved (I tried by setting a static ARP entry for a host i was pinging from), it gets overwritten by virtue of having the netdevice disabling ARP. Subsequent packets go out fine with correct dstMAC address (which may be why people have ignored reporting this issue). To cut the story short: the culprit code is in net/ethernet/eth.c::eth_header() ---- /* * Anyway, the loopback-device should never use this function... */ if (dev->flags & (IFF_LOOPBACK|IFF_NOARP)) { memset(eth->h_dest, 0, dev->addr_len); return ETH_HLEN; } if(daddr) { memcpy(eth->h_dest,daddr,dev->addr_len); return ETH_HLEN; } ---- Note how the h_dest is being reset when device has IFF_NOARP. As a note: All devices including loopback pass a daddr. loopback in fact passes a 0 all the time ;-> This means i can delete the check totaly or i can remove the IFF_NOARP Alexey says: -------------------- I think, it was me who did this crap. It was so long ago I do not remember why it was made. I remember some troubles with dummy device. It tried to resolve addresses, apparently, without success and generated errors instead of blackholing. I think the problem was eventually solved at neighbour level. After some thinking I suspect the deletion of this chunk could change behaviour of some parts which do not use neighbour cache f.e. packet socket. I think safer approach would be to move this chunk after if (daddr). And the possibility to remove this completely could be analyzed later. -------------------- Patch updated with Alexey's safer suggestions.

net: Add function for parsing the header length out of linear ethernet frames This patch updates some of the flow_dissector api so that it can be used to parse the length of ethernet buffers stored in fragments. Most of the changes needed were to __skb_get_poff as it needed to be updated to support sending a linear buffer instead of a skb. I have split __skb_get_poff into two functions, the first is skb_get_poff and it retains the functionality of the original __skb_get_poff. The other function is __skb_get_poff which now works much like __skb_flow_dissect in relation to skb_flow_dissect in that it provides the same functionality but works with just a data buffer and hlen instead of needing an skb.

Most of the changes needed were to __skb_get_poff as it needed to be updated to support sending a linear buffer instead of a skb. I have split __skb_get_poff into two functions, the first is skb_get_poff and it retains the functionality of the original __skb_get_poff. The other function is __skb_get_poff which now works much like __skb_flow_dissect in relation to skb_flow_dissect in that it provides the same functionality but works with just a data buffer and hlen instead of needing an skb.

net: core: rework basic flow dissection helper When the core networking needs to detect the transport offset in a given packet and parse it explicitly, a full-blown flow_keys struct is used for storage. This patch introduces a smaller keys store, rework the basic flow dissect helper to use it, and apply this new helper where possible - namely in skb_probe_transport_header(). The used flow dissector data structures are renamed to match more closely the new role. The above gives ~50% performance improvement in micro benchmarking around skb_probe_transport_header() and ~30% around eth_get_headlen(), mostly due to the smaller memset. Small, but measurable improvement is measured also in macro benchmarking. v1 -> v2: use the new helper in eth_get_headlen() and skb_get_poff(), as per DaveM suggestion Suggested-by: David Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

net: help compiler generate better code in eth_get_headlen Noticed that the compiler (gcc version 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-4) (GCC)) generated suboptimal assembler code in eth_get_headlen(). This early return coding style is usually not an issue, on super scalar CPUs, but the compiler choose to put the return statement after this very unlikely branch, thus creating larger jump down to the likely code path. Performance wise, I could measure slightly less L1-icache-load-misses and less branch-misses, and an improvement of 1 nanosec with an IP-forwarding use-case with 257 bytes packets with ixgbe (CPU i7-4790K @ 4.00GHz).

netkit: Fix pkt_type override upon netkit pass verdict When running Cilium connectivity test suite with netkit in L2 mode, we found that compared to tcx a few tests were failing which pushed traffic into an L7 proxy sitting in host namespace. The problem in particular is around the invocation of eth_type_trans() in netkit. In case of tcx, this is run before the tcx ingress is triggered inside host namespace and thus if the BPF program uses the bpf_skb_change_type() helper the newly set type is retained. However, in case of netkit, the late eth_type_trans() invocation overrides the earlier decision from the BPF program which eventually leads to the test failure. Instead of eth_type_trans(), split out the relevant parts, meaning, reset of mac header and call to eth_skb_pkt_type() before the BPF program is run in order to have the same behavior as with tcx, and refactor a small helper called eth_skb_pull_mac() which is run in case it's passed up the stack where the mac header must be pulled. With this all connectivity tests pass.

dsa: add support for original DSA tagging format Most of the DSA switches currently in the field do not support the Ethertype DSA tagging format that one of the previous patches added support for, but only the original DSA tagging format. The original DSA tagging format carries the same information as the Ethertype DSA tagging format, but with the difference that it does not have an ethertype field. In other words, when receiving a packet that is tagged with an original DSA tag, there is no way of telling in eth_type_trans() that this packet is in fact a DSA-tagged packet. This patch adds a hook into eth_type_trans() which is only compiled in if support for a switch chip that doesn't support Ethertype DSA is selected, and which checks whether there is a DSA switch driver instance attached to this network device which uses the old tag format. If so, it sets the protocol field to ETH_P_DSA without looking at the packet, so that the packet ends up in the right place.

net: dsa: reduce number of protocol hooks DSA is currently registering one packet_type function per EtherType it needs to intercept in the receive path of a DSA-enabled Ethernet device. Right now we have three of them: trailer, DSA and eDSA, and there might be more in the future, this will not scale to the addition of new protocols. This patch proceeds with adding a new layer of abstraction and two new functions: dsa_switch_rcv() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific receive function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c dsa_slave_xmit() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific transmit function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c When we do create the per-port slave network devices, we iterate over the switch protocol to assign the DSA-specific receive and transmit operations. A new fake ethertype value is used: ETH_P_XDSA to illustrate the fact that this is no longer going to look like ETH_P_DSA or ETH_P_TRAILER like it used to be. This allows us to greatly simplify the check in eth_type_trans() and always override the skb->protocol with ETH_P_XDSA for Ethernet switches tagged protocol, while also reducing the number repetitive slave netdevice_ops assignments.

etherdev: Fix sparse error, make test usable by other functions This change does two things. First it fixes a sparse error for the fact that the __be16 degrades to an integer. Since that is actually what I am kind of doing I am simply working around that by forcing both sides of the comparison to u16. Also I realized on some compilers I was generating another instruction for big endian systems such as PowerPC since it was masking the value before doing the comparison. So to resolve that I have simply pulled the mask out and wrapped it in an #ifndef __BIG_ENDIAN. Lastly I pulled this all out into its own function. I notices there are similar checks in a number of other places so this function can be reused there to help reduce overhead in these paths as well.

net: introduce device min_header_len The stack must not pass packets to device drivers that are shorter than the minimum link layer header length. Previously, packet sockets would drop packets smaller than or equal to dev->hard_header_len, but this has false positives. Zero length payload is used over Ethernet. Other link layer protocols support variable length headers. Support for validation of these protocols removed the min length check for all protocols. Introduce an explicit dev->min_header_len parameter and drop all packets below this value. Initially, set it to non-zero only for Ethernet and loopback. Other protocols can follow in a patch to net-next.

net: deprecate eth_change_mtu, remove usage With centralized MTU checking, there's nothing productive done by eth_change_mtu that isn't already done in dev_set_mtu, so mark it as deprecated and remove all usage of it in the kernel. All callers have been audited for calls to alloc_etherdev* or ether_setup directly, which means they all have a valid dev->min_mtu and dev->max_mtu. Now eth_change_mtu prints out a netdev_warn about being deprecated, for the benefit of out-of-tree drivers that might be utilizing it. Of note, dvb_net.c actually had dev->mtu = 4096, while using eth_change_mtu, meaning that if you ever tried changing it's mtu, you couldn't set it above 1500 anymore. It's now getting dev->max_mtu also set to 4096 to remedy that. v2: fix up lantiq_etop, missed breakage due to drive not compiling on x86 CC: netdev@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson <jarod@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

net: make default TX queue length a defined constant The default TX queue length of Ethernet devices have been a magic constant of 1000, ever since the initial git import. Looking back in historical trees[1][2] the value used to be 100, with the same comment "Ethernet wants good queues". The commit[3] that changed this from 100 to 1000 didn't describe why, but from conversations with Robert Olsson it seems that it was changed when Ethernet devices went from 100Mbit/s to 1Gbit/s, because the link speed increased x10 the queue size were also adjusted. This value later caused much heartache for the bufferbloat community. This patch merely moves the value into a defined constant.

Next comes ethernet with a priority of 10, and then we have the MPLS types with a priority of 15.

net: Add Transparent Ethernet Bridging GRO support. Currently the only tunnel protocol that supports GRO with encapsulated Ethernet is VXLAN. This pulls out the Ethernet code into a proper layer so that it can be used by other tunnel protocols such as GRE and Geneve. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

net: Add eth_platform_get_mac_address() helper. A repeating pattern in drivers has become to use OF node information and, if not found, platform specific host information to extract the ethernet address for a given device. Currently this is done with a call to of_get_mac_address() and then some ifdef'd stuff for SPARC. Consolidate this into a portable routine, and provide the arch_get_platform_mac_address() weak function hook for all architectures to implement if they want. Signed-off-by: David S.

of: net: pass the dst buffer to of_get_mac_address() of_get_mac_address() returns a "const void*" pointer to a MAC address. Lately, support to fetch the MAC address by an NVMEM provider was added. But this will only work with platform devices. It will not work with PCI devices (e.g. of an integrated root complex) and esp. not with DSA ports. There is an of_* variant of the nvmem binding which works without devices. The returned data of a nvmem_cell_read() has to be freed after use. On the other hand the return of_get_mac_address() points to some static data without a lifetime. The trick for now, was to allocate a device resource managed buffer which is then returned. This will only work if we have an actual device. Change it, so that the caller of of_get_mac_address() has to supply a buffer where the MAC address is written to. Unfortunately, this will touch all drivers which use the of_get_mac_address(). Usually the code looks like: const char *addr; addr = of_get_mac_address(np); if (!IS_ERR(addr)) ether_addr_copy(ndev->dev_addr, addr); This can then be simply rewritten as: of_get_mac_address(np, ndev->dev_addr); Sometimes is_valid_ether_addr() is used to test the MAC address. of_get_mac_address() already makes sure, it just returns a valid MAC address. Thus we can just test its return code. But we have to be careful if there are still other sources for the MAC address before the of_get_mac_address(). In this case we have to keep the is_valid_ether_addr() call. The following coccinelle patch was used to convert common cases to the new style. Afterwards, I've manually gone over the drivers and fixed the return code variable: either used a new one or if one was already available use that.
