git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni: "Core & protocols: - Improve drop account scalability on NUMA hosts for RAW and UDP sockets and the backlog, almost doubling the Pps capacity under DoS - Optimize the UDP RX performance under stress, reducing contention, revisiting the binary layout of the involved data structs and implementing NUMA-aware locking. This improves UDP RX performance by an additional 50%, even more under extreme conditions - Add support for PSP encryption of TCP connections; this mechanism has some similarities with IPsec and TLS, but offers superior HW offloads capabilities - Ongoing work to support Accurate ECN for TCP. AccECN allows more than one congestion notification signal per RTT and is a building block for Low Latency, Low Loss, and Scalable Throughput (L4S) - Reorganize the TCP socket binary layout for data locality, reducing the number of touched cachelines in the fastpath - Refactor skb deferral free to better scale on large multi-NUMA hosts, this improves TCP and UDP RX performances significantly on such HW - Increase the default socket memory buffer limits from 256K to 4M to better fit modern link speeds - Improve handling of setups with a large number of nexthop, making dump operating scaling linearly and avoiding unneeded synchronize_rcu() on delete - Improve bridge handling of VLAN FDB, storing a single entry per bridge instead of one entry per port; this makes the dump order of magnitude faster on large switches - Restore IP ID correctly for encapsulated packets at GSO segmentation time, allowing GRO to merge packets in more scenarios - Improve netfilter matching performance on large sets - Improve MPTCP receive path performance by leveraging recently introduced core infrastructure (skb deferral free) and adopting recent TCP autotuning changes - Allow bridges to redirect to a backup port when the bridge port is administratively down - Introduce MPTCP 'laminar' endpoint that con be used only once per connection and simplify common MPTCP setups - Add RCU safety to dst->dev, closing a lot of possible races - A significant crypto library API for SCTP, MPTCP and IPv6 SR, reducing code duplication - Supports pulling data from an skb frag into the linear area of an XDP buffer Things we sprinkled into general kernel code: - Generate netlink documentation from YAML using an integrated YAML parser Driver API: - Support using IPv6 Flow Label in Rx hash computation and RSS queue selection - Introduce API for fetching the DMA device for a given queue, allowing TCP zerocopy RX on more H/W setups - Make XDP helpers compatible with unreadable memory, allowing more easily building DevMem-enabled drivers with a unified XDP/skbs datapath - Add a new dedicated ethtool callback enabling drivers to provide the number of RX rings directly, improving efficiency and clarity in RX ring queries and RSS configuration - Introduce a burst period for the health reporter, allowing better handling of multiple errors due to the same root cause - Support for DPLL phase offset exponential moving average, controlling the average smoothing factor Device drivers: - Add a new Huawei driver for 3rd gen NIC (hinic3) - Add a new SpacemiT driver for K1 ethernet MAC - Add a generic abstraction for shared memory communication devices (dibps) - Ethernet high-speed NICs: -

2025-08-27net: Prevent RPS table overwrite of active flowsKrishna Kumar
This patch fixes an issue where two different flows on the same RXq produce the same hash resulting in continuous flow overwrites. Flow #1: A packet for Flow #1 comes in, kernel calls the steering function. The driver gives back a filter id. The kernel saves this filter id in the selected slot. Later, the driver's service task checks if any filters have expired and then installs the rule for Flow #1. Flow #2: A packet for Flow #2 comes in. It goes through the same steps. But this time, the chosen slot is being used by Flow #1. The driver gives a new filter id and the kernel saves it in the same slot. When the driver's service task runs, it runs through all the flows, checks if Flow #1 should be expired, the kernel returns True as the slot has a different filter id, and then the driver installs the rule for Flow #2. Flow #1: Another packet for Flow #1 comes in. The same thing repeats. The slot is overwritten with a new filter id for Flow #1. This causes a repeated cycle of flow programming for missed packets, wasting CPU cycles while not improving performance. This problem happens at higher rates when the RPS table is small, but tests show it still happens even with 12,000 connections and an RPS size of 16K per queue (global table size = 144x16K = 64K). This patch prevents overwriting an rps_dev_flow entry if it is active. The intention is that it is better to do aRFS for the first flow instead of hurting all flows on the same hash. Without this, two (or more) flows on one RX queue with the same hash can keep overwriting each other. This causes the driver to reprogram the flow repeatedly. Changes: 1. Add a new 'hash' field to struct rps_dev_flow. 2. Add rps_flow_is_active(): a helper function to check if a flow is active or not, extracted from rps_may_expire_flow(). It is further simplified as per reviewer feedback. 3. In set_rps_cpu(): - Avoid overwriting by programming a new filter if: - The slot is not in use, or - The slot is in use but the flow is not active, or - The slot has an active flow with the same hash, but target CPU differs. - Save the hash in the rps_dev_flow entry. 4. rps_may_expire_flow(): Use earlier extracted rps_flow_is_active(). Testing & results: - Driver: ice (E810 NIC), Kernel: net-next - #CPUs = #RXq = 144 (1:1) - Number of flows: 12K - Eight RPS settings from 256 to 32768. Though RPS=256 is not ideal, it is still sufficient to cover 12K flows (256*144 rx-queues = 64K global table slots) - Global Table Size = 144 * RPS (effectively equal to 256 * RPS) - Each RPS test duration = 8 mins (org code) + 8 mins (new code). - Metrics captured on client Legend for following tables: Steer-C: #times ndo_rx_flow_steer() was Called by set_rps_cpu() Steer-L: #times ice_arfs_flow_steer() Looped over aRFS entries Add: #times driver actually programmed aRFS (ice_arfs_build_entry()) Del: #times driver deleted the flow (ice_arfs_del_flow_rules()) Units: K = 1,000 times, M = 1 million times |-------|---------|------| Org Code |---------|---------| | RPS | Latency | CPU | Add | Del | Steer-C | Steer-L | |-------|---------|------|--------|--------|---------|---------| | 256 | 227.0 | 93.2 | 1.6M | 1.6M | 121.7M | 267.6M | | 512 | 225.9 | 94.1 | 11.5M | 11.2M | 65.7M | 199.6M | | 1024 | 223.5 | 95.6 | 16.5M | 16.5M | 27.1M | 187.3M | | 2048 | 222.2 | 96.3 | 10.5M | 10.5M | 12.5M | 115.2M | | 4096 | 223.9 | 94.1 | 5.5M | 5.5M | 7.2M | 65.9M | | 8192 | 224.7 | 92.5 | 2.7M | 2.7M | 3.0M | 29.9M | | 16384 | 223.5 | 92.5 | 1.3M | 1.3M | 1.4M | 13.9M | | 32768 | 219.6 | 93.2 | 838.1K | 838.1K | 965.1K | 8.9M | |-------|---------|------| New Code |---------|---------| | 256 | 201.5 | 99.1 | 13.4K | 5.0K | 13.7K | 75.2K | | 512 | 202.5 | 98.2 | 11.2K | 5.9K | 11.2K | 55.5K | | 1024 | 207.3 | 93.9 | 11.5K | 9.7K | 11.5K | 59.6K | | 2048 | 207.5 | 96.7 | 11.8K | 11.1K | 15.5K | 79.3K | | 4096 | 206.9 | 96.6 | 11.8K | 11.7K | 11.8K | 63.2K | | 8192 | 205.8 | 96.7 | 11.9K | 11.8K | 11.9K | 63.9K | | 16384 | 200.9 | 98.2 | 11.9K | 11.9K | 11.9K | 64.2K | | 32768 | 202.5 | 98.0 | 11.9K | 11.9K | 11.9K | 64.2K | |-------|---------|------|--------|--------|---------|---------| Some observations: 1.

2025-03-25net: designate queue counts as "double ops protected" by instance lockJakub Kicinski
Drivers which opt into instance lock protection of ops should only call set_real_num_*_queues() under the instance lock. This means that queue counts are double protected (writes are under both rtnl_lock and instance lock, readers under either). Some readers may still be under the rtnl_lock, however, so for now we need double protection of writers. OTOH queue API paths are only under the protection of the instance lock, so we need to validate that the instance is actually locking ops, otherwise the input checks we do against queue count are racy.

2025-03-25net: rfs: hash function changeEric Dumazet
RFS is using two kinds of hash tables. First one is controlled by /proc/sys/net/core/rps_sock_flow_entries = 2^N and using the N low order bits of the l4 hash is good enough. Then each RX queue has its own hash table, controlled by /sys/class/net/eth1/queues/rx-$q/rps_flow_cnt = 2^X Current hash function, using the X low order bits is suboptimal, because RSS is usually using Func(hash) = (hash % power_of_two); For example, with 32 RX queues, 6 low order bits have no entropy for a given queue. Switch this hash function to hash_32(hash, log) to increase chances to use all possible slots and reduce collisions.

Move the more esoteric helpers for netdev instance lock to a dedicated header. This avoids growing netdevice.h to infinity and makes rebuilding the kernel much faster (after touching the header with the helpers). The main netdev_lock() / netdev_unlock() functions are used in static inlines in netdevice.h and will probably be used most commonly, so keep them in netdevice.h.

Rx/tx queues embed their own kobject for registering their per-queue sysfs files. The issue is they're using the kobject default groups for this and entirely rely on the kobject refcounting for releasing their sysfs paths. In order to remove rtnl_trylock calls we need sysfs files not to rely on their associated kobject refcounting for their release. Thus we here move queues sysfs files from the kobject default groups to their own groups which can be removed separately.

2025-02-05net-sysfs: remove rtnl_trylock from device attributesAntoine Tenart
There is an ABBA deadlock between net device unregistration and sysfs files being accessed[1][2]. To prevent this from happening all paths taking the rtnl lock after the sysfs one (actually kn->active refcount) use rtnl_trylock and return early (using restart_syscall)[3], which can make syscalls to spin for a long time when there is contention on the rtnl lock[4]. There are not many possibilities to improve the above: - Rework the entire net/ locking logic. - Invert two locks in one of the paths — not possible. But here it's actually possible to drop one of the locks safely: the kernfs_node refcount. More details in the code itself, which comes with lots of comments. Note that we check the device is alive in the added sysfs_rtnl_lock helper to disallow sysfs operations to run after device dismantle has started. This also help keeping the same behavior as before. Because of this calls to dev_isalive in sysfs ops were removed.

Device class has two namespace relevant fields which are associated by the following usage: struct class { ... const struct kobj_ns_type_operations *ns_type; const void *(*namespace)(const struct device *dev); ... } if (dev->class && dev->class->ns_type) dev->class->namespace(dev); The usage looks weird since it checks @ns_type but calls namespace() it is found for all existing class definitions that the other filed is also assigned once one is assigned in current kernel tree, so fix this weird usage by checking @namespace to call namespace().

2024-09-05net: napi: Prevent overflow of napi_defer_hard_irqsJoe Damato
In commit 6f8b12d661d0 ("net: napi: add hard irqs deferral feature") napi_defer_irqs was added to net_device and napi_defer_irqs_count was added to napi_struct, both as type int. This value never goes below zero, so there is not reason for it to be a signed int. Change the type for both from int to u32, and add an overflow check to sysfs to limit the value to S32_MAX. The limit of S32_MAX was chosen because the practical limit before this patch was S32_MAX (anything larger was an overflow) and thus there are no behavioral changes introduced. If the extra bit is needed in the future, the limit can be raised.

When CONFIG_DQL is not enabled, dql_group should be treated as a dead declaration. However, its current extern declaration assumes the linker will ignore it, which is generally true across most compiler and architecture combinations. But in certain cases, the linker still attempts to resolve the extern struct, even when the associated code is dead, resulting in a linking error. For instance the following error in loongarch64: >> loongarch64-linux-ld: net-sysfs.c:(.text+0x589c): undefined reference to `dql_group' Modify the declaration of the dead object to be an empty declaration instead of an extern.

In fact, this structure contains a flexible array at the end, but historically its size, alignment etc., is calculated manually. There are several instances of the structure embedded into other structures, but also there's ongoing effort to remove them and we could in the meantime declare &net_device properly. Declare the array explicitly, use struct_size() and store the array size inside the structure, so that __counted_by() can be applied. Don't use PTR_ALIGN(), as SLUB itself tries its best to ensure the allocated buffer is aligned to what the user expects. Also, change its alignment from %NETDEV_ALIGN to the cacheline size as per several suggestions on the netdev ML. bloat-o-meter for vmlinux: free_netdev 445 440 -5 netdev_freemem 24 - -24 alloc_netdev_mqs 1481 1450 -31 On x86_64 with several NICs of different vendors, I was never able to get a &net_device pointer not aligned to the cacheline size after the change.

2024-03-08net: dqs: add NIC stall detector based on BQLJakub Kicinski
softnet_data->time_squeeze is sometimes used as a proxy for host overload or indication of scheduling problems. In practice this statistic is very noisy and has hard to grasp units - e.g. is 10 squeezes a second to be expected, or high? Delaying network (NAPI) processing leads to drops on NIC queues but also RTT bloat, impacting pacing and CA decisions. Stalls are a little hard to detect on the Rx side, because there may simply have not been any packets received in given period of time. Packet timestamps help a little bit, but again we don't know if packets are stale because we're not keeping up or because someone (*cough* cgroups) disabled IRQs for a long time. We can, however, use Tx as a proxy for Rx stalls. Most drivers use combined Rx+Tx NAPIs so if Tx gets starved so will Rx. On the Tx side we know exactly when packets get queued, and completed, so there is no uncertainty. This patch adds stall checks to BQL. Why BQL? Because it's a convenient place to add such checks, already called by most drivers, and it has copious free space in its structures (this patch adds no extra cache references or dirtying to the fast path). The algorithm takes one parameter - max delay AKA stall threshold and increments a counter whenever NAPI got delayed for at least that amount of time. It also records the length of the longest stall. To be precise every time NAPI has not polled for at least stall thrs we check if there were any Tx packets queued between last NAPI run and now - stall_thrs/2. Unlike the classic Tx watchdog this mechanism does not ignore stalls caused by Tx being disabled, or loss of link. I don't think the check is worth the complexity, and stall is a stall, whether due to host overload, flow control, link down... doesn't matter much to the application. We have been running this detector in production at Meta for 2 years, with the threshold of 8ms. It's the lowest value where false positives become rare. There's still a constant stream of reported stalls (especially without the ksoftirqd deferral patches reverted), those who like their stall metrics to be 0 may prefer higher value.

2024-02-19net: sysfs: Do not create sysfs for non BQL deviceBreno Leitao
Creation of sysfs entries is expensive, mainly for workloads that constantly creates netdev and netns often. Do not create BQL sysfs entries for devices that don't need, basically those that do not have a real queue, i.e, devices that has NETIF_F_LLTX and IFF_NO_QUEUE, such as `lo` interface. This will remove the /sys/class/net/eth0/queues/tx-X/byte_queue_limits/ directory for these devices. In the example below, eth0 has the `byte_queue_limits` directory but not `lo`. # ls /sys/class/net/lo/queues/tx-0/ traffic_class tx_maxrate tx_timeout xps_cpus xps_rxqs # ls /sys/class/net/eth0/queues/tx-0/byte_queue_limits/ hold_time inflight limit limit_max limit_min This also removes the #ifdefs, since we can also use netdev_uses_bql() to check if the config is enabled.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core Pull driver core updates from Greg KH: "Here is the set of driver core and kernfs changes for 6.2-rc1. The "big" change in here is the addition of a new macro, container_of_const() that will preserve the "const-ness" of a pointer passed into it. The "problem" of the current container_of() macro is that if you pass in a "const *", out of it can comes a non-const pointer unless you specifically ask for it. For many usages, we want to preserve the "const" attribute by using the same call. For a specific example, this series changes the kobj_to_dev() macro to use it, allowing it to be used no matter what the const value is. This prevents every subsystem from having to declare 2 different individual macros (i.e. kobj_const_to_dev() and kobj_to_dev()) and having the compiler enforce the const value at build time, which having 2 macros would not do either. The driver for all of this have been discussions with the Rust kernel developers as to how to properly mark driver core, and kobject, objects as being "non-mutable". The changes to the kobject and driver core in this pull request are the result of that, as there are lots of paths where kobjects and device pointers are not modified at all, so marking them as "const" allows the compiler to enforce this. So, a nice side affect of the Rust development effort has been already to clean up the driver core code to be more obvious about object rules. All of this has been bike-shedded in quite a lot of detail on lkml with different names and implementations resulting in the tiny version we have in here, much better than my original proposal. Lots of subsystem maintainers have acked the changes as well.
