Generally an RX packet flows through the following objects:
Flow table --> TIR --> RQT --> RQ
Where:
- TIR stands for "Transport Interface Receive", defining the RSS and
LRO paramaters.
- RQT stands for "RQ Table", implementing the RSS indirection table.
- RQ stands for "Receive Queue"
For flows that do not need LRO, nor RSS, the driver made a shortcut to
the above RX flow by pointing to the RQ directly from the TIR, yielding
this flow:
Flow table --> TIR --> RQ
In this commit we remove this shortcut by "inserting" a single-RQ RQT
between the TIR and the RQ, i.e RX packets will reach the same RQ but
will go through an RQT of size 1, pointing to just a single RQ.
This way the RX traffic re-direction to/from the "Drop RQ" will be more
uniform (AKA "one flow"), as it will involve only RQTs re-direction and
no TIRs re-direction.

Since interrupt is shared between the two ethernet interface and
in isr only one napi is scheduled at an instance so having two
napis doesn't make any difference. So making napi also as a
common resource for the dual ethernet interfaces.

We recently changed this code from returning NULL to returning ERR_PTR.
There are some left over NULL assignments which we can remove. We can
preserve the error code from ip_route_output() instead of always
returning -ENODEV. Also these functions use a mix of gotos and direct
returns. There is no cleanup necessary so I changed the gotos to
direct returns.

bnx2x, cnic, bnx2fc: add support for BD
Commit 230d00eb4bfe ("bnx2x: new Multi-function mode - BD") added support
for a new multi-function mode, but it added only the support required by
bnx2x for L2 interfaces.
This adds the required changes to support the new multi-function mode in
the offloaded storage protocols.
Dave,
Please consider applying this series to `net-next'.
Do notice that this involves non-networking driver changes -
but sending this as a single series seemed like the best approach as
we had to have bnx2x changes to support the new functionality.
If this is problematic, please tell us what's the preferred solution here.
Changes from previous versions

- From v1 - no actual changes; v1 failed to reach netdev so in order to
keep things in line I've termed this one v2.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:
1) A couple of cleanups for the netfilter core hook from Eric Biederman.
2) Net namespace hook registration, also from Eric. This adds a dependency with
the rtnl_lock. This should be fine by now but we have to keep an eye on this
because if we ever get the per-subsys nfnl_lock before rtnl we have may
problems in the future. But we have room to remove this in the future by
propagating the complexity to the clients, by registering hooks for the init
netns functions.
3) Update nf_tables to use the new net namespace hook infrastructure, also from
Eric.
4) Three patches to refine and to address problems from the new net namespace
hook infrastructure.
5) Switch to alternate jumpstack in xtables iff the packet is reentering. This
only applies to a very special case, the TEE target, but Eric Dumazet
reports that this is slowing down things for everyone else. So let's only
switch to the alternate jumpstack if the tee target is in used through a
static key. This batch also comes with offline precalculation of the
jumpstack based on the callchain depth. From Florian Westphal.
6) Minimal SCTP multihoming support for our conntrack helper, from Michal
Kubecek.
7) Reduce nf_bridge_info per skbuff scratchpad area to 32 bytes, from Florian

lwtunnel: encap locally-generated ipv4 packets
Locally-generated IPv4 packets, such as from applications running on

====================

lwtunnel encap is applied for forwarded packets, but not for
locally-generated packets. This is because the output function is not
overridden in __mkroute_output, unlike it is in __mkroute_input.
The lwtunnel state is correctly set on the rth through the call to
rt_set_nexthop, so all that needs to be done is to override the dst
output function to be lwtunnel_output if there is lwtunnel state
present and it requires output redirection.

In the locally-generated packet path skb->protocol may not be set and
this is required for the lwtunnel encap in order to get the lwtstate.
This would otherwise have been set by ip_output or ip6_output so set
skb->protocol prior to calling the lwtunnel encap
function. Additionally set skb->dev in case it is needed further down
the transmit path.

Since the introduction of the BPF action in d23b8ad8ab23 ("tc: add BPF
based action"), late binding was not working as expected. I.e. setting
the action part for a classifier only via 'bpf index <num>', where <num>
is the index of an existing action, is being rejected by the kernel due
to other missing parameters.
It doesn't make sense to require these parameters such as BPF opcodes
etc, as they are not going to be used anyway: in this case, they're just
allocated/parsed and then freed again w/o doing anything meaningful.
Instead, parse and verify the remaining parameters *after* the test on
tcf_hash_check(), when we really know that we're dealing with creation
of a new action or replacement of an existing one and where late binding
is thus irrelevant.
After patch, test case is now working:
FOO="1,6 0 0 4294967295,"
tc actions add action bpf bytecode "$FOO"
tc filter add dev foo parent 1: bpf bytecode "$FOO" flowid 1:1 action bpf index 1
tc actions show action bpf
action order 0: bpf bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967295' default-action pipe
index 1 ref 2 bind 1
tc filter show dev foo
filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf
filter protocol all pref 49152 bpf handle 0x1 flowid 1:1 bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967295'
action order 1: bpf bytecode '1,6 0 0 4294967295' default-action pipe
index 1 ref 2 bind 1
Late binding of a BPF action can be useful for preloading maps (e.g. before
they hit traffic) in case of eBPF programs, or to share a single eBPF action
with multiple classifiers.

Before this patch when a vid was not specified, the entry was added with
vid 0 which is useless when vlan_filtering is enabled. This patch makes
the entry to be added on all configured vlans when vlan filtering is
enabled and respectively deleted from all, if the entry vid is 0.
This is also closer to the way fdb works with regard to vid 0 and vlan
filtering.
Example:
Setup:
$ bridge vlan add vid 256 dev eth4
$ bridge vlan add vid 1024 dev eth4
$ bridge vlan add vid 64 dev eth3
$ bridge vlan add vid 128 dev eth3
$ bridge vlan

eth4 1 PVID Egress Untagged

$ echo 1 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/vlan_filtering

One VM of each on a pair of OpenStack compute nodes with E5-2650Lv3 CPUs
and Intel 82599ES-based NICs. So, two "before" and two "after" VMs.
The OpenStack compute nodes were running OpenStack Kilo, with VxLAN
encapsulation being used through OVS so no GRO coming-up the host

Add skb->hash to the __sk_buff offset map, so it can be accessed from
an eBPF program. We currently already do this for classic BPF filters,
but not yet on eBPF, it might be useful as a demuxer in combination with
helpers like bpf_clone_redirect(), toy example:
__section("cls-lb") int ingress_main(struct __sk_buff *skb)
{
unsigned int which = 3 + (skb->hash & 7);
/* bpf_skb_store_bytes(skb, ...); */
/* bpf_l{3,4}_csum_replace(skb, ...); */
bpf_clone_redirect(skb, which, 0);
return -1;
}
I was thinking whether to add skb_get_hash(), but then concluded the
raw skb->hash seems fine in this case: we can directly access the hash
w/o extra eBPF helper function call, it's filled out by many NICs on
ingress, and in case the entropy level would not be sufficient, people
can still implement their own specific sw fallback hash mix anyway.

====================
ipv6: Turn on auto IPv6 flow labels by default
BSD (MacOS) has already turned on flow labels by default and this does
not seem to be causing any problems in the Internet. Let's go ahead
and turn them on by default. We'll continue to monitor for any devices
start choking on them.
Flow labels are important since they are the desired solution for
network devices to perform ECMP and RSS (RFC6437 and RFC6438).
Traditionally, devices perform a 5-tuple hash on packets that
includes port numbers. For the most part, these devices can only
compute 5-tuple hashes for TCP and UDP. This severely limits our ability
to get good network load balancing for other protocols (IPIP, GRE,ESP,
etc.), and hence we are limited in using other protocols. Unfortunately,
this method is accepted as the de facto standard to the extent that
there are several proposals to encapsulate protocols in UDP _just_ for
the purposes for getting ECMP to work. With hosts generating flow labels
and devices taking them as input into ECMP (several already do), we can
start to fix this fundamental problem.
This patch set:
- Changes IPV6_FLOWINFO sockopt to be opt-out of flow labels for
connections rather than opt-in
- Disable flow label state ranges sysctl by default
- Enable auto flow labels sysctl by default
v2:
- Added functions to create an skb->hash based on flowi4 and flowi6.
These are called in output path when creating a packet
- Call skb_get_hash_flowi6 in ip6_make_flowlabel
- Implement the auto_flowlabels sysctl as a mode for auto flowlabels.
There are four modes which correspond to flow labels being enabled
and whether socket option can be used to opt in or opt out of
using them

Initialize auto_flowlabels to one. This enables automatic flow labels,
individual socket may disable them using the IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket
option.

Per RFC6437 stateful flow labels (e.g. labels set by flow label manager)
cannot "disturb" nodes taking part in stateless flow labels. While the
ranges only reduce the flow label entropy by one bit, it is conceivable
that this might bias the algorithm on some routers causing a load
imbalance. For best results on the Internet we really need the full
20 bits.

Change the meaning of net.ipv6.auto_flowlabels to provide a mode for
automatic flow labels generation. There are four modes:
0: flow labels are disabled
1: flow labels are enabled, sockets can opt-out
2: flow labels are allowed, sockets can opt-in
3: flow labels are enabled and enforced, no opt-out for sockets
np->autoflowlabel is initialized according to the sysctl value.

We can't call skb_get_hash here since the packet is not complete to do
flow_dissector. Create hash based on flowi6 instead.

Add skb_get_hash_flowi6 and skb_get_hash_flowi4 which derive an sk_buff
hash from flowi6 and flowi4 structures respectively. These functions
can be called when creating a packet in the output path where the new
sk_buff does not yet contain a fully formed packet that is parsable by
flow dissector.
