xen-netback: support dynamic unbind/bind
By re-attaching RX, TX, and CTL rings during connect() rather than
assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e. assuming the counters are zero),
and avoiding forcing state to Closed in netback_remove() it is possible
for vif instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to (respectively) a
running guest.
Dynamic unbind/bind is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it
allows it to be unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring
domUs to be halted.
This has been tested by running iperf as a server in the test VM and
then running a client against it in a continuous loop, whilst also
running:
while true;
do echo vif-$DOMID-$VIF >unbind;
echo down;
rmmod xen-netback;
echo unloaded;
modprobe xen-netback;
cd $(pwd);
brctl addif xenbr0 vif$DOMID.$VIF;
ip link set vif$DOMID.$VIF up;
echo up;
sleep 5;
done
in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vif to continuously unbind,
unload, re-load, re-bind and re-plumb the backend.
Clearly a performance drop was seen but no TCP connection resets were
observed during this test and moreover a parallel SSH connection into the
guest remained perfectly usable throughout.

In discussion with Andrew [0] we figured out that it would be best to
make the RX delay of the RTL8211F PHY configurable (just like the TX
delay is already configurable).
While here I took the opportunity to add some logging to the TX delay
configuration as well.
There is no public documentation for the RX and TX delay registers.
I received this information a while ago (and created this RfC patch
back then: [1]). Realtek gave me permission to take the information
from the datasheet extracts and phase them in my own words and publish
that (I am not allowed to publish the datasheet extracts).
I have tested these patches on two boards:
- Amlogic Meson8b Odroid-C1
- Amlogic GXM Khadas VIM2
Both still behave as before these changes (iperf3 speeds are the same
in both directions: RX and TX), which is expected because they are
currently using phy-mode = "rgmii" with the RX delay not being generated
by the PHY.
net: phy: realtek: add support for configuring the RX delay on RTL8211F
On RTL8211F the RX and TX delays (2ns) can be configured in two ways:
- pin strapping (RXD1 for the TX delay and RXD0 for the RX delay, LOW
means "off" and HIGH means "on") which is read during PHY reset
- using software to configure the TX and RX delay registers
So far only the configuration using pin strapping has been supported.
Add support for enabling or disabling the RGMII RX delay based on the
phy-mode to be able to get the RX delay into a known state. This is
important because the RX delay has to be coordinated between the PHY,
MAC and the PCB design (trace length). With an invalid RX delay applied
(for example if both PHY and MAC add a 2ns RX delay) Ethernet may not
work at all.
Also add debug logging when configuring the RX delay (just like the TX
delay) because this is a common source of problems.

net: phy: realtek: add logging for the RGMII TX delay configuration
RGMII requires a delay of 2ns between the data and the clock signal.
There are at least three ways this can happen. One possibility is by
having the PHY generate this delay.
This is a common source for problems (for example with slow TX speeds or
packet loss when sending data). The TX delay configuration of the
RTL8211F PHY can be set either by pin-strappping the RXD1 pin (HIGH
means enabled, LOW means disabled) or through configuring a paged
register. The setting from the RXD1 pin is also reflected in the
register.
Add debug logging to the TX delay configuration on RTL8211F so it's
easier to spot these issues (for example if the TX delay is enabled for
both, the RTL8211F PHY and the MAC).
This is especially helpful because there is no public datasheet for the
RTL8211F PHY available with all the RX/TX delay specifics.

TRACE_EVENT(sctp_probe), another one is TRACE_EVENT(sctp_probe_path).
The original patch intended to trigger the trace_sctp_probe_path in

But I found it did not work when I did testing, and trace_sctp_probe_path

The reason caused no output of trace_sctp_probe_path is that
trace_sctp_probe_path written in TP_fast_assign part of
TRACE_EVENT(sctp_probe), and it will be placed( { assign; } ) after the
trace_event_buffer_reserve() when compiler expands Macro,
so trace_sctp_probe_path finally can not acquire trace_event_buffer
and return no output, that is to say the nest of tracepoint entry function
is not allowed. The function call flow is:
trace_sctp_probe()
-> trace_event_raw_event_sctp_probe()
-> lock buffer
-> trace_sctp_probe_path()
-> trace_event_raw_event_sctp_probe_path() --nested
-> buffer has been locked and return no output.
This patch is to remove trace_sctp_probe_path from the TP_fast_assign
part of TRACE_EVENT(sctp_probe) to avoid the nest of entry function,

Peer to Peer One-Step time stamping
This series adds support for PTP (IEEE 1588) P2P one-step time
stamping along with a driver for a hardware device that supports this.
If the hardware supports p2p one-step, it subtracts the ingress time
stamp value from the Pdelay_Request correction field. The user space
software stack then simply copies the correction field into the
Pdelay_Response, and on transmission the hardware adds the egress time
stamp into the correction field.
This new functionality extends CONFIG_NETWORK_PHY_TIMESTAMPING to
cover MII snooping devices, but it still depends on phylib, just as
that option does. Expanding beyond phylib is not within the scope of
the this series.
User space support is available in the current linuxptp master branch.
- Patch 1 adds phy_device methods for existing time stamping fields.
- Patches 2-5 convert the stack and drivers to the new methods.
- Patch 6 moves code around the dp83640 driver.
- Patches 7-10 add support for MII time stamping in non-PHY devices.
- Patch 11 adds the new P2P 1-step option.
- Patch 12 adds a driver implementing the new option.

Ido Schimmel says:
====================
Simplify IPv6 route offload API
Motivation
==========
This is the IPv6 counterpart of "Simplify IPv4 route offload API" [1].
The aim of this patch set is to simplify the IPv6 route offload API by
making the stack a bit smarter about the notifications it is generating.
This allows driver authors to focus on programming the underlying device
instead of having to duplicate the IPv6 route insertion logic in their
driver, which is error-prone.
Details
=======
Today, whenever an IPv6 route is added or deleted a notification is sent
in the FIB notification chain and it is up to offload drivers to decide
if the route should be programmed to the hardware or not. This is not an
easy task as in hardware routes are keyed by {prefix, prefix length,
table id}, whereas the kernel can store multiple such routes that only
differ in metric / nexthop info.
This series makes sure that only routes that are actually used in the
data path are notified to offload drivers. This greatly simplifies the
work these drivers need to do, as they are now only concerned with
programming the hardware and do not need to replicate the IPv6 route
insertion logic and store multiple identical routes.
The route that is notified is the first route in the IPv6 FIB node,
which represents a single prefix and length in a given table. In case
the route is deleted and there is another route with the same key, a
replace notification is emitted. Otherwise, a delete notification is
emitted.
Unlike IPv4, in IPv6 it is possible to append individual nexthops to an
existing multipath route. Therefore, in addition to the replace and
delete notifications present in IPv4, an append notification is also
used.
Testing
=======
To ensure there is no degradation in route insertion rates, I averaged
the insertion rate of 512k routes (/64 and /128) over 50 runs. Did not
observe any degradation.
Functional tests are available here [2]. They rely on route trap
indication, which is added in a subsequent patch set.
In addition, I have been running syzkaller for the past couple of weeks
with debug options enabled. Did not observe any problems.

Merge branch 'ovs-mpls-actions'
Martin Varghese says:
====================
New openvswitch MPLS actions for layer 2 tunnelling
The existing PUSH MPLS action inserts MPLS header between ethernet header
and the IP header. Though this behaviour is fine for L3 VPN where an IP
packet is encapsulated inside a MPLS tunnel, it does not suffice the L2
VPN (l2 tunnelling) requirements. In L2 VPN the MPLS header should
encapsulate the ethernet packet.
The new mpls action ADD_MPLS inserts MPLS header at the start of the
packet or at the start of the l3 header depending on the value of l3 tunnel
flag in the ADD_MPLS arguments.
POP_MPLS action is extended to support ethertype 0x6558

pipe: fix empty pipe check in pipe_write()
LTP pipeio_1 test is hanging with v5.5-rc2-385-gb8e382a185eb,
with read side observing empty pipe and sleeping and write
side running out of space and then sleeping as well. In this
scenario there are 5 writers and 1 reader.
Problem is that after pipe_write() reacquires pipe lock, it
re-checks for empty pipe with potentially stale 'head' and
doesn't wake up read side anymore. pipe->tail can advance
beyond 'head', because there are multiple writers.
Use pipe->head for empty pipe check after reacquiring lock
to observe current state.

kbuild: clarify the difference between obj-y and obj-m w.r.t. descending
Kbuild descends into a directory by either 'y' or 'm', but there is an
important difference.
Kbuild combines the built-in objects into built-in.a in each directory.
The built-in.a in the directory visited by obj-y is merged into the
built-in.a in the parent directory. This merge happens recursively
when Kbuild is ascending back towards the top directory, then built-in
objects are linked into vmlinux eventually. This works properly only
when the Makefile specifying obj-y is reachable by the chain of obj-y.
On the other hand, Kbuild does not take built-in.a from the directory
visited by obj-m. This it, all the objects in that directory are
supposed to be modular. If Kbuild descends into a directory by obj-m,
but the Makefile in the sub-directory specifies obj-y, those objects
are just left orphan.
The current statement "Kbuild only uses this information to decide that
it needs to visit the directory" is misleading. Clarify the difference.

In the long run we intend to rewrite the channel allocation code, but for
'net' fix this by allocating extra_channels, and giving them TX queues,
even if we do not in fact need them (e.g. on NICs without MAC TX
timestamping), and thereby using simpler logic to assign the channels
once they're allocated.

When storing a pointer to a dst_metrics structure in dst_entry._metrics,
two flags are added in the least significant bits of the pointer value.
Hence this assumes all pointers to dst_metrics structures have at least
4-byte alignment.
However, on m68k, the minimum alignment of 32-bit values is 2 bytes, not
4 bytes. Hence in some kernel builds, dst_default_metrics may be only
2-byte aligned, leading to obscure boot warnings like:
Fix this by forcing 4-byte alignment of all dst_metrics structures.

expected output: rx-usecs 128
actual output: rx-usecs 0
Reason for issue:
In stage 3, ethtool userspace calls first the ena_get_coalesce() handler
to get the current value of all properties, and then the ena_set_coalesce()
handler. When ena_get_coalesce() is called the adaptive interrupt
moderation is still on. There is an if in the code that returns the
rx_coalesce_usecs only if the adaptive interrupt moderation is off.
And since it is still on, rx_coalesce_usecs is not set, meaning it
stays 0.
Solution to issue:
Remove this if static interrupt moderation intervals have nothing to do
with dynamic ones.
expected output: rx-usecs 128
actual output: rx-usecs 0
Reason for issue:
In stage 2, when ena_set_coalesce() is called, the handler tests if
rx adaptive interrupt moderation is on, and if it is, it returns before
getting to the part in the function that sets the rx non-adaptive
interrupt moderation interval.
Solution to issue:
Remove the return from the function when rx adaptive interrupt moderation
is on.
Also cleaned up the fixed code in ena_set_coalesce by grouping together
adaptive interrupt moderation toggling, and using && instead of nested
ifs.

Current default non-adaptive tx interrupt moderation interval is 196 us.
This value is too high and might cause the tx queue to fill up.
In this commit we set the default non-adaptive tx interrupt moderation
interval to 64 us in order to:
1. Reduce the probability of the queue filling-up (when compared to the
current default value of 196 us).
2. Reduce unnecessary tx interrupt overhead (which happens if we set the
default tx interval to 0).
We determined experimentally that 64 us is an optimal value that
reduces interrupt rate by more than 20% without affecting performance.
