netconsole: allow selection of egress interface via MAC address
This series adds support for selecting a netconsole egress interface by
specifying the MAC address (in place of the interface name) in the
boot/module parameter.
Uday Shankar [Wed, 12 Mar 2025 19:51:47 +0000 (13:51 -0600)]
netconsole: allow selection of egress interface via MAC address
Currently, netconsole has two methods of configuration - module
parameter and configfs. The former interface allows for netconsole
activation earlier during boot (by specifying the module parameter on
the kernel command line), so it is preferred for debugging issues which
arise before userspace is up/the configfs interface can be used. The
module parameter syntax requires specifying the egress interface name.
This requirement makes it hard to use for a couple reasons:
- The egress interface name can be hard or impossible to predict. For
example, installing a new network card in a system can change the
interface names assigned by the kernel.
- When constructing the module parameter, one may have trouble
determining the original (kernel-assigned) name of the interface
(which is the name that should be given to netconsole) if some stable
interface naming scheme is in effect. A human can usually look at
kernel logs to determine the original name, but this is very painful
if automation is constructing the parameter.
For these reasons, allow selection of the egress interface via MAC
address when configuring netconsole using the module parameter. Update
the netconsole documentation with an example of the new syntax.
Selection of egress interface by MAC address via configfs is far less
interesting (since when this interface can be used, one should be able
to easily convert between MAC address and interface name), so it is left
unimplemented.

net: stmmac: dwmac-rk: Provide FIFO sizes for DWMAC 1000
The DWMAC 1000 DMA capabilities register does not provide actual
FIFO sizes, nor does the driver really care. If they are not
provided via some other means, the driver will work fine, only
disallowing changing the MTU setting.
Provide the FIFO sizes through the driver's platform data to enable
MTU changes. The FIFO sizes are confirmed to be the same across RK3288,
RK3328, RK3399 and PX30, based on their respective manuals. It is
likely that Rockchip synthesized their DWMAC 1000 with the same
parameters on all their chips that have it.
This series deprecates the "snps,en-tx-lpi-clockgating" property for
stmmac.
MII Transmit clock gating, where the MAC hardware supports gating this
clock, is a function of the connected PHY capabilities, which it
reports through its status register.
GMAC versions that support transmit clock gating twiddle the LPITCSE
bit accordingly in the LPI control/status register, which is handled
by the GMAC core specific code.
So, "snps,en-tx-lpi-clockgating" not something that is a GMAC property,
but is a work-around for phylib not providing an interface to determine
whether the PHY allows the transmit clock to be disabled.
This series converts the two SoCs that make use of this property (which,
I hasten to add, is set in the SoC code) to use the PHY capability bit
instead of a DT property, then removes the DT property from the .dtsi,
deprecates it in the snps,dwmac binding, and finally in the stmmac code.
I am expecting some discussion on how to merge this, as I think the
order in which these changes is made is important - we don't want to
deprecate the old way until the new code has landed.

udp_tunnel: create a fastpath GRO lookup.
Most UDP tunnels bind a socket to a local port, with ANY address, no
peer and no interface index specified.
Additionally it's quite common to have a single tunnel device per
namespace.
Track in each namespace the UDP tunnel socket respecting the above.
When only a single one is present, store a reference in the netns.
When such reference is not NULL, UDP tunnel GRO lookup just need to
match the incoming packet destination port vs the socket local port.
The tunnel socket never sets the reuse[port] flag[s]. When bound to no
address and interface, no other socket can exist in the same netns
matching the specified local port.
Matching packets with non-local destination addresses will be
aggregated, and eventually segmented as needed - no behavior changes
intended.
Note that the UDP tunnel socket reference is stored into struct
netns_ipv4 for both IPv4 and IPv6 tunnels. That is intentional to keep
all the fastpath-related netns fields in the same struct and allow
cacheline-based optimization. Currently both the IPv4 and IPv6 socket
pointer share the same cacheline as the `udp_table` field.

configurations may have changed. Support this new flag by treating it
almost like FW reset. The driver will essentially rediscover all
features and capabilities, reconfigure all backing store context memory,
reset everything to default, and reserve all resources.

E610 NICs unlike the previous devices utilising ixgbe driver
are notified in the case of overheating by the FW ACI event.
In event of overheat when threshold is exceeded, FW suspends all
traffic and sends overtemp event to the driver. Then driver
logs appropriate message and disables the adapter instance.
The card remains in that state until the platform is rebooted.
This approach is a solution to the fact current version of the
E610 FW doesn't support reading thermal sensor data by the
SW. So give to user at least any info that overtemp event
has occurred, without interface disappearing from the OS
without any note.

ice: Add E830 checksum offload support
E830 supports raw receive and generic transmit checksum offloads.
Raw receive checksum support is provided by hardware calculating the
checksum over the whole packet, regardless of type. The calculated
checksum is provided to driver in the Rx flex descriptor. Then the driver
assigns the checksum to skb->csum and sets skb->ip_summed to
CHECKSUM_COMPLETE.
Generic transmit checksum support is provided by hardware calculating the
checksum given two offsets: the start offset to begin checksum calculation,
and the offset to insert the calculated checksum in the packet. Support is
advertised to the stack using NETIF_F_HW_CSUM feature.
E830 has the following limitations when both generic transmit checksum
offload and TCP Segmentation Offload (TSO) are enabled:
1. Inner packet header modification is not supported. This restriction
includes the inability to alter TCP flags, such as the push flag. As a
result, this limitation can impact the receiver's ability to coalesce
packets, potentially degrading network throughput.
2. The Maximum Segment Size (MSS) is limited to 1023 bytes, which prevents
support of Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) greater than 1063 bytes.
Therefore NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_ALL_TSO features are mutually
exclusive. NETIF_F_HW_CSUM hardware feature support is indicated but is not
enabled by default. Instead, IP checksums and NETIF_F_ALL_TSO are the
defaults. Enforcement of mutual exclusivity of NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and
NETIF_F_ALL_TSO is done in ice_set_features(). Mutual exclusivity
of IP checksums and NETIF_F_HW_CSUM is handled by netdev_fix_features().
When NETIF_F_HW_CSUM is requested the provided skb->csum_start and
skb->csum_offset are passed to hardware in the Tx context descriptor
generic checksum (GCS) parameters. Hardware calculates the 1's complement
from skb->csum_start to the end of the packet, and inserts the result in
the packet at skb->csum_offset.

net: phy: Rework linkmodes handling in a dedicated file
This is V5 of the phy_caps series. In a nutshell, this series reworks the way
we maintain the list of speed/duplex capablities for each linkmode so that we
no longer have multiple definition of these associations.
That will help making sure that when people add new linkmodes in
include/uapi/linux/ethtool.h, they don't have to update phylib and phylink as
well, making the process more straightforward and less error-prone.
It also generalises the phy_caps interface to be able to lookup linkmodes
from phy_interface_t, which is needed for the multi-port work I've been working
on for a while.
This V5 addresse Russell's and Paolo's reviews, namely :
- Error out when encountering an unknown SPEED_XXX setting
It prints an error and fails to initialize phylib. I've tested by
introducing a dummy 1.6T speed, I guess it's only a matter of time
before that actually happens :)
- Deal more gracefully with the fixed-link settings, keeping some level of
compatibility with what we had before by making sure we report a
single BaseT mode like before.

of these modes, including the Speed and Duplex information.
Phylib and phylink needs that information as well for internal
management of the link, which was done by duplicating that information
in locally-stored arrays and lookup functions. This makes it easy for
developpers adding new modes to forget modifying phylib and phylink
accordingly.
However, the link_mode_params array in net/ethtool/common.c is fairly
inefficient to search through, as it isn't sorted in any manner. Phylib
and phylink perform a lot of lookup operations, mostly to filter modes
by speed and/or duplex.
We therefore introduce the link_caps private array in phy_caps.c, that
indexes linkmodes in a more efficient manner. Each element associated a
tuple <speed, duplex> to a bitfield of all the linkmodes runs at these
speed/duplex.
We end-up with an array that's fairly short, easily addressable and that
it optimised for the typical use-cases of phylib/phylink.

tcp: add new TCP_TW_ACK_OOW state and allow ECN bits in TOS
ECN bits in TOS are always cleared when sending in ACKs in TW. Clearing
them is problematic for TCP flows that used Accurate ECN because ECN bits
decide which service queue the packet is placed into (L4S vs Classic).
Effectively, TW ACKs are always downgraded from L4S to Classic queue
which might impact, e.g., delay the ACK will experience on the path
compared with the other packets of the flow.
Change the TW ACK sending code to differentiate:
- In tcp_v4_send_reset(), commit ba9e04a7ddf4f ("ip: fix tos reflection
in ack and reset packets") cleans ECN bits for TW reset and this is
not affected.
- In tcp_v4_timewait_ack(), ECN bits for all TW ACKs are cleaned. But now
only ECN bits of ACKs for oow data or paws_reject are cleaned, and ECN
bits of other ACKs will not be cleaned.
- In tcp_v4_reqsk_send_ack(), commit 66b13d99d96a1 ("ipv4: tcp: fix TOS
value in ACK messages sent from TIME_WAIT") did not clean ECN bits of
ACKs for oow data or paws_reject. But now the ECN bits rae cleaned for
these ACKs.

gro: prevent ACE field corruption & better AccECN handling
There are important differences in how the CWR field behaves
in RFC3168 and AccECN. With AccECN, CWR flag is part of the
ACE counter and its changes are important so adjust the flags
changed mask accordingly.
Also, if CWR is there, set the Accurate ECN GSO flag to avoid
corrupting CWR flag somewhere.

gso: AccECN support
Handling the CWR flag differs between RFC 3168 ECN and AccECN.
With RFC 3168 ECN aware TSO (NETIF_F_TSO_ECN) CWR flag is cleared
starting from 2nd segment which is incompatible how AccECN handles
the CWR flag. Such super-segments are indicated by SKB_GSO_TCP_ECN.
With AccECN, CWR flag (or more accurately, the ACE field that also
includes ECE & AE flags) changes only when new packet(s) with CE
mark arrives so the flag should not be changed within a super-skb.
The new skb/feature flags are necessary to prevent such TSO engines
corrupting AccECN ACE counters by clearing the CWR flag (if the
CWR handling feature cannot be turned off).
If NIC is completely unaware of RFC3168 ECN (doesn't support
NETIF_F_TSO_ECN) or its TSO engine can be set to not touch CWR flag
despite supporting also NETIF_F_TSO_ECN, TSO could be safely used
with AccECN on such NIC. This should be evaluated per NIC basis
(not done in this patch series for any NICs).
For the cases, where TSO cannot keep its hands off the CWR flag,
a GSO fallback is provided by this patch.
