2021-04-01ethtool: support FEC settings over netlinkJakub Kicinski1-2/+60
Add FEC API to netlink. This is not a 1-to-1 conversion. FEC settings already depend on link modes to tell user which modes are supported. Take this further an use link modes for manual configuration. Old struct ethtool_fecparam is still used to talk to the drivers, so we need to translate back and forth. We can revisit the internal API if number of FEC encodings starts to grow. Enforce only one active FEC bit (by using a bit position rather than another mask).

2021-03-25arm64: kernel: disable CNP on CarmelRich Wiley1-0/+3
On NVIDIA Carmel cores, CNP behaves differently than it does on standard ARM cores. On Carmel, if two cores have CNP enabled and share an L2 TLB entry created by core0 for a specific ASID, a non-shareable TLBI from core1 may still see the shared entry. On standard ARM cores, that TLBI will invalidate the shared entry as well. This causes issues with patchsets that attempt to do local TLBIs based on cpumasks instead of broadcast TLBIs. Avoid these issues by disabling CNP support for NVIDIA Carmel cores.

2021-03-24net: make unregister netdev warning timeout configurableDmitry Vyukov1-0/+11
netdev_wait_allrefs() issues a warning if refcount does not drop to 0 after 10 seconds. While 10 second wait generally should not happen under normal workload in normal environment, it seems to fire falsely very often during fuzzing and/or in qemu emulation (~10x slower). At least it's not possible to understand if it's really a false positive or not. Automated testing generally bumps all timeouts to very high values to avoid flake failures. Add net.core.netdev_unregister_timeout_secs sysctl to make the timeout configurable for automated testing systems. Lowering the timeout may also be useful for e.g. manual bisection. The default value matches the current behavior.

2021-03-18KVM: x86: Protect userspace MSR filter with SRCU, and set atomically-ishSean Christopherson1-2/+4
Fix a plethora of issues with MSR filtering by installing the resulting filter as an atomic bundle instead of updating the live filter one range at a time. The KVM_X86_SET_MSR_FILTER ioctl() isn't truly atomic, as the hardware MSR bitmaps won't be updated until the next VM-Enter, but the relevant software struct is atomically updated, which is what KVM really needs. Similar to the approach used for modifying memslots, make arch.msr_filter a SRCU-protected pointer, do all the work configuring the new filter outside of kvm->lock, and then acquire kvm->lock only when the new filter has been vetted and created. That way vCPU readers either see the old filter or the new filter in their entirety, not some half-baked state. Yuan Yao pointed out a use-after-free in ksm_msr_allowed() due to a TOCTOU bug, but that's just the tip of the iceberg... - Nothing is __rcu annotated, making it nigh impossible to audit the code for correctness. - kvm_add_msr_filter() has an unpaired smp_wmb(). Violation of kernel coding style aside, the lack of a smb_rmb() anywhere casts all code into doubt. - kvm_clear_msr_filter() has a double free TOCTOU bug, as it grabs count before taking the lock. - kvm_clear_msr_filter() also has memory leak due to the same TOCTOU bug. The entire approach of updating the live filter is also flawed. While installing a new filter is inherently racy if vCPUs are running, fixing the above issues also makes it trivial to ensure certain behavior is deterministic, e.g. KVM can provide deterministic behavior for MSRs with identical settings in the old and new filters. An atomic update of the filter also prevents KVM from getting into a half-baked state, e.g. if installing a filter fails, the existing approach would leave the filter in a half-baked state, having already committed whatever bits of the filter were already processed.

The documentation was already lagging behind by not mentioning the old version of port_bridge_flags (port_set_egress_floods). So now we are skipping one step and just explaining how a DSA driver should configure address learning and flooding settings.

2021-03-17Documentation: networking: dsa: remove TODO about porting more vendor driversVladimir Oltean1-2/+0
On one hand, the link is dead and therefore useless. On the other hand, there are always more drivers to port, but at this stage, DSA does not need to affirm itself as the driver model to use for Ethernet-connected switches (since we already have 15 tagging protocols supported and probably more switch families from various vendors), so there is nothing actionable to do.

After the recent series containing commit bae33f2b5afe ("net: switchdev: remove the transaction structure from port attributes"), there aren't prepare/commit transactional phases anymore in most of the switchdev objects/attributes, and as a result, there aren't any in the DSA driver API either.

2021-03-17Documentation: networking: dsa: rewrite chapter about tagging protocolVladimir Oltean1-8/+140
The chapter about tagging protocols is out of date because it doesn't mention all taggers that have been added since last documentation update. But judging based on that, it will always tend to lag behind, and there's no good reason why we would enumerate the supported hardware. Instead we could do something more useful and explain what there is to know about tagging protocols instead.
