Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-04-11
This series contains updates to iflink, ixgbe and ixgbevf.
The entire set of changes come from Vlad Zolotarov to ultimately add
the ethtool ops to VF driver to allow querying the RSS indirection table
and RSS random key.
Currently we support only 82599 and x540 devices. On those devices, VFs
share the RSS redirection table and hash key with a PF. Letting the VF
query this information may introduce some security risks, therefore this
feature will be disabled by default.
The new netdev op allows a system administrator to change the default
behaviour with "ip link set" command. The relevant iproute2 patch has
already been sent and awaits for this series upstream.

fou: some fixes and updates
Patch 1~3 fix some minor bugs in net/ipv4/fou.c, the only
thing I am not sure is if it's too late to change the
byte order of FOU_ATTR_PORT, if so we have to fix iproute2
instead of kernel.
Patch 4~5 add some new features to make it complete.

It is time to drop SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN constraint for twsk_slab.

Add this new command for 82599 and x540 devices only. Support for other
devices will be added later.
82599 and x540 VFs and PF share the same RSS redirection table (RETA).
Therefore we just return it for all VFs.
For 82599 and x540 RETA table is an array of 32 registers (128 bytes) and
the maximum number of registers that may be delivered in a single VF-PF
channel command is 15. On the other hand VFs of these devices can be
configured to have up to 4 RSS queues. Therefore we will "compress" the
RETA by transferring only 2 bits per entry and thereby it will take only 8
registers (DWORDS) to transfer the whole VF RETA.
Thus this patch does the following:
- Adds a new API version (to specify a new commands set).
- Adds the IXGBE_VF_GET_RETA command to the VF-PF commands set.

This patch is a preparation for enablement of ethtool RSS indirection
table and hash key querying. We don't want to read registers every time
the RSS info is queried. Therefore we will store its current content in the
arrays in the adapter struct and will read it from there (instead of from
registers) when requested.
Will change the code that writes the indirection table and hash key into
the HW registers to take its content from these arrays. This will also
simplify the indirection table updating ethtool callback implementation
in the future.

This change makes it so that the HW_VLAN_CTAG_FILTER bit is not falsely

driver was setting the bit in features and letting it be inherited by
hw_features, however the driver was actually ignoring the value of the bit
and just assuming it was always set. As a result VLAN filtering was always
enabled which is a requirement for SR-IOV, VMDq, DCB, FCoE, and possibly

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree.
They are:
* nf_tables set timeout infrastructure from Patrick Mchardy.
1) Add support for set timeout support.
2) Add support for set element timeouts using the new set extension
infrastructure.
4) Add garbage collection helper functions to get rid of stale elements.
Elements are accumulated in a batch that are asynchronously released
via RCU when the batch is full.
5) Add garbage collection synchronization helpers. This introduces a new
element busy bit to address concurrent access from the netlink API and the
garbage collector.
5) Add timeout support for the nft_hash set implementation. The garbage
collector peridically checks for stale elements from the workqueue.
* iptables/nftables cgroup fixes:
6) Ignore non full-socket objects from the input path, otherwise cgroup
match may crash, from Daniel Borkmann.
7) Fix cgroup in nf_tables.
8) Save some cycles from xt_socket by skipping packet header parsing when
skb->sk is already set because of early demux. Also from Daniel.
* br_netfilter updates from Florian Westphal.
9) Save frag_max_size and restore it from the forward path too.
10) Use a per-cpu area to restore the original source MAC address when traffic
is DNAT'ed.
11) Add helper functions to access physical devices.
12) Use these new physdev helper function from xt_physdev.
13) Add another nf_bridge_info_get() helper function to fetch the br_netfilter
state information.
14) Annotate original layer 2 protocol number in nf_bridge info, instead of
using kludgy flags.
15) Also annotate the pkttype mangling when the packet travels back and forth
from the IP to the bridge layer, instead of using a flag.
* More nf_tables set enhancement from Patrick:
16) Fix possible usage of set variant that doesn't support timeouts.
17) Avoid spurious "set is full" errors from Netlink API when there are pending
stale elements scheduled to be released.
18) Restrict loop checks to set maps.
19) Add support for dynamic set updates from the packet path.
20) Add support to store optional user data (eg. comments) per set element.

resolution between your okfn() signature changes and Florian's br_netfilter
updates.

Replace wmb()/rmb() with dma_wmb()/dma_rmb() where appropriate, round 2
More cleanup of drivers in order to start making use of dma_rmb and dma_wmb
calls. This is another pass of what I would consider to be low hanging
fruit. There may be other opportunities to make use of the barriers in the
Mellanox and Chelsio drivers but I didn't want to risk meddling with code I
was not completely familiar with so I am leaving that for future work.
I have revisited the Mellanox driver changes. This time around I went only
for the sections with a clearly defined pattern. For dma_wmb I used it
between accesses of the descriptor bits followed by owner or size. For
dma_rmb I used it to replace rmb following a read of the ownership bit in
the descriptor.

This patch should help to improve the performance of the mlx4 and mlx5 on a
number of architectures. For example, on x86 the dma_wmb/rmb equates out
to a barrer() call as the architecture is already strong ordered, and on
PowerPC the call works out to a lwsync which is significantly less expensive
than the sync call that was being used for wmb.
I placed the new barriers between any spots that seemed to be trying to
order memory/memory reads or writes, if there are any spots that involved
MMIO I left the existing wmb in place as the new barriers cannot order
transactions between coherent and non-coherent memories.
v2: Reduced the replacments to just the spots where I could clearly
identify the usage pattern.
