This work adds a new, minimal BPF-programmable device called "netkit"
(former PoC code-name "meta") we recently presented at LSF/MM/BPF. The
core idea is that BPF programs are executed within the drivers xmit routine
and therefore e.g. in case of containers/Pods moving BPF processing closer
to the source.
One of the goals was that in case of Pod egress traffic, this allows to
move BPF programs from hostns tcx ingress into the device itself, providing
earlier drop or forward mechanisms, for example, if the BPF program
determines that the skb must be sent out of the node, then a redirect to
the physical device can take place directly without going through per-CPU
backlog queue. This helps to shift processing for such traffic from softirq
to process context, leading to better scheduling decisions/performance (see
measurements in the slides).
In this initial version, the netkit device ships as a pair, but we plan to
extend this further so it can also operate in single device mode. The pair
comes with a primary and a peer device. Only the primary device, typically
residing in hostns, can manage BPF programs for itself and its peer. The
peer device is designated for containers/Pods and cannot attach/detach
BPF programs. Upon the device creation, the user can set the default policy
to 'pass' or 'drop' for the case when no BPF program is attached.
Additionally, the device can be operated in L3 (default) or L2 mode. The
management of BPF programs is done via bpf_mprog, so that multi-attach is
supported right from the beginning with similar API and dependency controls
as tcx. For details on the latter see commit 053c8e1f235d ("bpf: Add generic
attach/detach/query API for multi-progs"). tc BPF compatibility is provided,
so that existing programs can be easily migrated.
Going forward, we plan to use netkit devices in Cilium as the main device
type for connecting Pods. They will be operated in L3 mode in order to
simplify a Pod's neighbor management and the peer will operate in default
drop mode, so that no traffic is leaving between the time when a Pod is
brought up by the CNI plugin and programs attached by the agent.
Additionally, the programs we attach via tcx on the physical devices are
using bpf_redirect_peer() for inbound traffic into netkit device, hence the
latter is also supporting the ndo_get_peer_dev callback. Similarly, we use
bpf_redirect_neigh() for the way out, pushing from netkit peer to phys device
directly. Also, BIG TCP is supported on netkit device. For the follow-up
work in single device mode, we plan to convert Cilium's cilium_host/_net
devices into a single one.
An extensive test suite for checking device operations and the BPF program
and link management API comes as BPF selftests in this series.

Enable netconsole features to be set at compilation time. Create two
Kconfig options that allow users to set extended logs and release
prepending features at compilation time.
Right now, the user needs to pass command line parameters to netconsole,
such as "+"/"r" to enable extended logs and version prepending features.
With these two options, the user could set the default values for the
features at compile time, and don't need to pass it in the command line
to get them enabled, simplifying the command line.

The patch adds native-mode XDP support: XDP DROP, PASS, TX, and REDIRECT.
Background:
The vmxnet3 rx consists of three rings: ring0, ring1, and dataring.
For r0 and r1, buffers at r0 are allocated using alloc_skb APIs and dma
mapped to the ring's descriptor. If LRO is enabled and packet size larger
than 3K, VMXNET3_MAX_SKB_BUF_SIZE, then r1 is used to mapped the rest of
the buffer larger than VMXNET3_MAX_SKB_BUF_SIZE. Each buffer in r1 is
allocated using alloc_page. So for LRO packets, the payload will be in one
buffer from r0 and multiple from r1, for non-LRO packets, only one
descriptor in r0 is used for packet size less than 3k.
When receiving a packet, the first descriptor will have the sop (start of
packet) bit set, and the last descriptor will have the eop (end of packet)
bit set. Non-LRO packets will have only one descriptor with both sop and
eop set.
Other than r0 and r1, vmxnet3 dataring is specifically designed for
handling packets with small size, usually 128 bytes, defined in
VMXNET3_DEF_RXDATA_DESC_SIZE, by simply copying the packet from the backend
driver in ESXi to the ring's memory region at front-end vmxnet3 driver, in
order to avoid memory mapping/unmapping overhead. In summary, packet size:
A. < 128B: use dataring
B. 128B - 3K: use ring0 (VMXNET3_RX_BUF_SKB)
C. > 3K: use ring0 and ring1 (VMXNET3_RX_BUF_SKB + VMXNET3_RX_BUF_PAGE)
As a result, the patch adds XDP support for packets using dataring
and r0 (case A and B), not the large packet size when LRO is enabled.
XDP Implementation:
When user loads and XDP prog, vmxnet3 driver checks configurations, such
as mtu, lro, and re-allocate the rx buffer size for reserving the extra
headroom, XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM, for XDP frame. The XDP prog will then be
associated with every rx queue of the device. Note that when using dataring
for small packet size, vmxnet3 (front-end driver) doesn't control the
buffer allocation, as a result we allocate a new page and copy packet
from the dataring to XDP frame.
The receive side of XDP is implemented for case A and B, by invoking the
bpf program at vmxnet3_rq_rx_complete and handle its returned action.
The vmxnet3_process_xdp(), vmxnet3_process_xdp_small() function handles
the ring0 and dataring case separately, and decides the next journey of
the packet afterward.
For TX, vmxnet3 has split header design. Outgoing packets are parsed
first and protocol headers (L2/L3/L4) are copied to the backend. The
rest of the payload are dma mapped. Since XDP_TX does not parse the
packet protocol, the entire XDP frame is dma mapped for transmission
and transmitted in a batch. Later on, the frame is freed and recycled
back to the memory pool.
Performance:
Tested using two VMs inside one ESXi vSphere 7.0 machine, using single
core on each vmxnet3 device, sender using DPDK testpmd tx-mode attached
to vmxnet3 device, sending 64B or 512B UDP packet.
VM1 txgen:
$ dpdk-testpmd -l 0-3 -n 1 -- -i --nb-cores=3 \
--forward-mode=txonly --eth-peer=0,<mac addr of vm2>
option: add "--txonly-multi-flow"
option: use --txpkts=512 or 64 byte
VM2 running XDP:
$ ./samples/bpf/xdp_rxq_info -d ens160 -a <options> --skb-mode
$ ./samples/bpf/xdp_rxq_info -d ens160 -a <options>
options: XDP_DROP, XDP_PASS, XDP_TX
To test REDIRECT to cpu 0, use
$ ./samples/bpf/xdp_redirect_cpu -d ens160 -c 0 -e drop
Single core performance comparison with skb-mode.
64B: skb-mode -> native-mode
XDP_DROP: 1.6Mpps -> 2.4Mpps
XDP_PASS: 338Kpps -> 367Kpps
XDP_TX: 1.1Mpps -> 2.3Mpps
REDIRECT-drop: 1.3Mpps -> 2.3Mpps
512B: skb-mode -> native-mode
XDP_DROP: 863Kpps -> 1.3Mpps
XDP_PASS: 275Kpps -> 376Kpps
XDP_TX: 554Kpps -> 1.2Mpps
REDIRECT-drop: 659Kpps -> 1.2Mpps
Demo: https://youtu.be/4lm1CSCi78Q
Future work:
- XDP frag support
- use napi_consume_skb() instead of dev_kfree_skb_any at unmap
- stats using u64_stats_t
- using bitfield macro BIT()
- optimization for DMA synchronization using actual frame length,
instead of always max_len

I'd like to make netdevsim offload tc-taprio, but currently, this Qdisc
emits a ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO call to the driver to make sure that it has
a PTP clock, so that it is reasonably capable of offloading the schedule.
By using the mock PHC driver, that becomes possible.
Hardware timestamping is not necessary, and netdevsim does not support
packet I/O anyway.

(e.g. mlx5) where CONFIG_PAGE_POOL_STATS is optional, make
CONFIG_PAGE_POOL_STATS optional for veth too in order to keep it

in veth_convert_skb_to_xdp_buff routine and avoid reallocating the skb
through the page allocator.
The patch has been tested sending tcp traffic to a veth pair where the
remote peer is running a simple xdp program just returning xdp_pass:
veth upstream codebase:
MTU 1500B: ~ 8Gbps
MTU 8000B: ~ 13.9Gbps
veth upstream codebase + pp support:

This framework was create with intention to provide support for Ethernet PSE
(Power Sourcing Equipment) and PDs (Powered Device).
At current step this patch implements generic PSE support for PoDL (Power over
Data Lines 802.3bu) specification with reserving name space for PD devices as
well.
This framework can be extended to support 802.3af and 802.3at "Power via the
Media Dependent Interface" (or PoE/Power over Ethernet)

The devices are meant to be under the "Device Drivers" category of the
menuconfig. The CAN subsystem is currently one of the rare exception
with all of its devices under the "Networking support" category.
The CAN_DEV menuentry gets moved to fix this discrepancy. The CAN menu
is added just before MCTP in order to be consistent with the current
order under the "Networking support" menu.
A dependency on CAN is added to CAN_DEV so that the CAN devices only
show up if the CAN subsystem is enabled.

In preparation for using blake2s in the RNG, we change the way that it
is wired-in to the build system. Instead of using ifdefs to select the
right symbol, we use weak symbols. And because ARM doesn't need the
generic implementation, we make the generic one default only if an arch
library doesn't need it already, and then have arch libraries that do
need it opt-in. So that the arch libraries can remain tristate rather
than bool, we then split the shash part from the glue code.

Register wwan_ops for link management via wwan rtnetlink. This is
only basic support for now, since we only support creating one
single link (link-0), but is useful to validate new wwan rtnetlink

For backward compatibity support, we still register a default netdev

set to false.

$ mbimcli -p -d /dev/wwan0p2MBIM --connect apn=free

This change introduces initial support for a WWAN framework. Given the
complexity and heterogeneity of existing WWAN hardwares and interfaces,
there is no strict definition of what a WWAN device is and how it should
be represented. It's often a collection of multiple devices that perform
the global WWAN feature (netdev, tty, chardev, etc).
One usual way to expose modem controls and configuration is via high
level protocols such as the well known AT command protocol, MBIM or
QMI. The USB modems started to expose them as character devices, and
user daemons such as ModemManager learnt to use them.
This initial version adds the concept of WWAN port, which is a logical
pipe to a modem control protocol. The protocols are rawly exposed to
user via character device, allowing straigthforward support in existing
tools (ModemManager, ofono...). The WWAN core takes care of the generic
part, including character device management, and relies on port driver
operations to receive/submit protocol data.
Since the different devices exposing protocols for a same WWAN hardware
do not necessarily know about each others (e.g. two different USB
interfaces, PCI/MHI channel devices...) and can be created/removed in
different orders, the WWAN core ensures that all WAN ports contributing
to the 'whole' WWAN feature are grouped under the same virtual WWAN
device, relying on the provided parent device (e.g. mhi controller,
USB device). It's a 'trick' I copied from Johannes's earlier WWAN
subsystem proposal.
This initial version is purposely minimalist, it's essentially moving
the generic part of the previously proposed mhi_wwan_ctrl driver inside
a common WWAN framework, but the implementation is open and flexible
enough to allow extension for further drivers.

There are no known users of this driver as of October 2020, and it will
be removed unless someone turns out to still need it in future releases.
According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_WiMAX_networks, there
have been many public wimax networks, but it appears that many of these
have migrated to LTE or discontinued their service altogether.
As most PCs and phones lack WiMAX hardware support, the remaining
networks tend to use standalone routers. These almost certainly
run Linux, but not a modern kernel or the mainline wimax driver stack.
NetworkManager appears to have dropped userspace support in 2015
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=747846, the
www.linuxwimax.org
site had already shut down earlier.
WiMax is apparently still being deployed on airport campus networks
("AeroMACS"), but in a frequency band that was not supported by the old
Intel 2400m (used in Sandy Bridge laptops and earlier), which is the
only driver using the kernel's wimax stack.
Move all files into drivers/staging/wimax, including the uapi header
files and documentation, to make it easier to remove it when it gets
to that. Only minimal changes are made to the source files, in order
to make it possible to port patches across the move.
Also remove the MAINTAINERS entry that refers to a broken mailing
list and website.

e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation)
f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---'
g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---'
In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the
following commend:
$ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/'
