Tony Lindgren reports a kernel oops that resulted from my compile-time
fix on the default config. This shows two problems:

a) configurations that did not already enable PTP_1588_CLOCK will
   now miss the cpts driver

b) when cpts support is disabled, the driver crashes. This is a
   preexisting problem that we did not notice before my patch.

While the second problem is still being investigated, this modifies
the dependencies again, getting us back to the original state, with
another 'select NET_PTP_CLASSIFY' added in to avoid the original
link error we got, and the 'depends on POSIX_TIMERS' to hide
the CPTS support when turning it on would be useless.

<title>net/mlx5e: Fix race in mlx5e_sw_stats and mlx5e_vport_stats</title>
<updated>2017-04-24T16:15:08+00:00</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.toradex.cn/cgit/linux-toradex.git/commit/?id=1510d728639e183b60bd1285b09a49c393923ba5'/>
<id>1510d728639e183b60bd1285b09a49c393923ba5</id>
<content type='text'>
We have observed a sudden spike in rx/tx_packets and rx/tx_bytes
reported under /proc/net/dev.  There is a race in mlx5e_update_stats()
and some of the get-stats functions (the one that we hit is the
mlx5e_get_stats() which is called by ndo_get_stats64()).

In particular, the very first thing mlx5e_update_sw_counters()
does is 'memset(s, 0, sizeof(*s))'.  For example, if mlx5e_get_stats()
is unlucky at one point, rx_bytes and rx_packets could be 0.  One second
later, a normal (and much bigger than 0) value will be reported.

This patch is to use a 'struct mlx5e_sw_stats temp' to avoid
a direct memset zero on priv-&gt;stats.sw.

mlx5e_update_vport_counters() has a similar race.  Hence, addressed
together.  However, memset zero is removed instead because
it is not needed.

I am lucky enough to catch this 0-reset in rx multicast:
eth0: 41457665   76804   70    0    0    70          0     47085 15586634   87502    3    0    0     0       3          0

RX packet headers are meant to be contained in SKB linear part,
and chose a threshold of 128.
It turns out this is not enough, i.e. for IPv6 packet over VxLAN.
In this case, UDP/IPv4 needs 42 bytes, GENEVE header is 8 bytes,
and 86 bytes for TCP/IPv6. In total 136 bytes that is more than
current 128 bytes. In this case expand header flow is reached.
The warning in skb_try_coalesce() caused by a wrong truesize
was already fixed here:
commit 158f323b9868 ("net: adjust skb-&gt;truesize in pskb_expand_head()").
Still, we prefer to totally avoid the expand header flow for performance reasons.
Tested regular TCP_STREAM with iperf for 1 and 8 streams, no degradation was found.

The warning in skb_try_coalesce() caused by a wrong truesize
was already fixed here:
commit 158f323b9868 ("net: adjust skb-&gt;truesize in pskb_expand_head()").
Still, we prefer to totally avoid the expand header flow for performance reasons.
Tested regular TCP_STREAM with iperf for 1 and 8 streams, no degradation was found.

When UAR is released, we deallocate the device resource, but
don't unmmap the UAR mapping memory.
Fix the leak by unmapping this memory.
