2023-02-10net-sysctl: factor-out rpm mask manipulation helpersPaolo Abeni1-0/+2

2023-02-02net: add gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size per deviceXin Long1-0/+18
This patch introduces gso_ipv4_max_size and gro_ipv4_max_size per device and adds netlink attributes for them, so that IPV4 BIG TCP can be guarded by a separate tunable in the next patch. To not break the old application using "gso/gro_max_size" for IPv4 GSO packets, this patch updates "gso/gro_ipv4_max_size" in netif_set_gso/gro_max_size() if the new size isn't greater than GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE, so that nothing will change even if userspace doesn't realize the new netlink attributes.

2022-11-01net: add new helper unregister_netdevice_many_notifyHangbin Liu1-0/+3
Add new helper unregister_netdevice_many_notify(), pass netlink message header and portid, which could be used to notify userspace when flag NLM_F_ECHO is set. Make the unregister_netdevice_many() as a wrapper of new function unregister_netdevice_many_notify().

2022-11-01rtnetlink: pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link()Hangbin Liu1-0/+4
This patch pass netlink message header and portid to rtnl_configure_link() All the functions in this call chain need to add the parameters so we can use them in the last call rtnl_notify(), and notify the userspace about the new link info if NLM_F_ECHO flag is set. - rtnl_configure_link() - __dev_notify_flags() - rtmsg_ifinfo() - rtmsg_ifinfo_event() - rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb() - rtmsg_ifinfo_send() - rtnl_notify() Also move __dev_notify_flags() declaration to net/core/dev.h, as Jakub suggested.

2022-05-16net: add skb_defer_max sysctlEric Dumazet1-1/+1
commit 68822bdf76f1 ("net: generalize skb freeing deferral to per-cpu lists") added another per-cpu cache of skbs. It was expected to be small, and an IPI was forced whenever the list reached 128 skbs. We might need to be able to control more precisely queue capacity and added latency. An IPI is generated whenever queue reaches half capacity. Default value of the new limit is 64. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2022-04-08net: extract a few internals from netdevice.hJakub Kicinski1-0/+91
There's a number of functions and static variables used under net/core/ but not from the outside. We currently dump most of them into netdevice.h. That bad for many reasons: - netdevice.h is very cluttered, hard to figure out what the APIs are; - netdevice.h is very long; - we have to touch netdevice.h more which causes expensive incremental builds. Create a header under net/core/ and move some declarations. The new header is also a bit of a catch-all but that's fine, if we create more specific headers people will likely over-think where their declaration fit best. And end up putting them in netdevice.h, again. More work should be done on splitting netdevice.h into more targeted headers, but that'd be more time consuming so small steps.
