Merge tag 'net-next-5.13' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next
Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski: "Core: - bpf: - allow bpf programs calling kernel functions (initially to reuse TCP congestion control implementations) - enable task local storage for tracing programs - remove the need to store per-task state in hash maps, and allow tracing programs access to task local storage previously added for BPF_LSM - add bpf_for_each_map_elem() helper, allowing programs to walk all map elements in a more robust and easier to verify fashion - sockmap: support UDP and cross-protocol BPF_SK_SKB_VERDICT redirection - lpm: add support for batched ops in LPM trie - add BTF_KIND_FLOAT support - mostly to allow use of BTF on s390 which has floats in its headers files - improve BPF syscall documentation and extend the use of kdoc parsing scripts we already employ for bpf-helpers - libbpf, bpftool: support static linking of BPF ELF files - improve support for encapsulation of L2 packets - xdp: restructure redirect actions to avoid a runtime lookup, improving performance by 4-8% in microbenchmarks - xsk: build skb by page (aka generic zerocopy xmit) - improve performance of software AF_XDP path by 33% for devices which don't need headers in the linear skb part (e.g. virtio) - nexthop: resilient next-hop groups - improve path stability on next-hops group changes (incl. offload for mlxsw) - ipv6: segment routing: add support for IPv4 decapsulation - icmp: add support for RFC 8335 extended PROBE messages - inet: use bigger hash table for IP ID generation - tcp: deal better with delayed TX completions - make sure we don't give up on fast TCP retransmissions only because driver is slow in reporting that it completed transmitting the original - tcp: reorder tcp_congestion_ops for better cache locality - mptcp: - add sockopt support for common TCP options - add support for common TCP msg flags - include multiple address ids in RM_ADDR - add reset option support for resetting one subflow - udp: GRO L4 improvements - improve 'forward' / 'frag_list' co-existence with UDP tunnel GRO, allowing the first to take place correctly even for encapsulated UDP traffic - micro-optimize dev_gro_receive() and flow dissection, avoid retpoline overhead on VLAN and TEB GRO - use less memory for sysctls, add a new sysctl type, to allow using u8 instead of "int" and "long" and shrink networking sysctls - veth: allow GRO without XDP - this allows aggregating UDP packets before handing them off to routing, bridge, OvS, etc. - allow specifing ifindex when device is moved to another namespace - netfilter: - nft_socket: add support for cgroupsv2 - nftables: add catch-all set element - special element used to define a default action in case normal lookup missed - use net_generic infra in many modules to avoid allocating per-ns memory unnecessarily - xps: improve the xps handling to avoid potential out-of-bound accesses and use-after-free when XPS change race with other re-configuration under traffic - add a config knob to turn off per-cpu netdev refcnt to catch underflows in testing Device APIs: - add WWAN subsystem to organize the WWAN interfaces better and hopefully start driving towards more unified and vendor- independent APIs - ethtool: - add interface for reading IEEE MIB stats (incl. mlx5 and bnxt support) - allow network drivers to dump arbitrary SFP EEPROM data, current offset+length API was a poor fit for modern SFP which define EEPROM in terms of pages (incl. mlx5 support) - act_police, flow_offload: add support for packet-per-second policing (incl. offload for nfp) - psample: add additional metadata attributes like transit delay for packets sampled from switch HW (and corresponding egress and policy-based sampling in the mlxsw driver) - dsa: improve support for sandwiched LAGs with bridge and DSA - netfilter: - flowtable: use direct xmit in topologies with IP forwarding, bridging, vlans etc. - nftables: counter hardware offload support - Bluetooth: - improvements for firmware download w/ Intel devices - add support for reading AOSP vendor capabilities - add support for virtio transport driver - mac80211: - allow concurrent monitor iface and ethernet rx decap - set priority and queue mapping for injected frames - phy: add support for Clause-45 PHY Loopback - pci/iov: add sysfs MSI-X vector assignment interface to distribute MSI-X resources to VFs (incl. mlx5 support) New hardware/drivers: - dsa: mv88e6xxx: add support for Marvell mv88e6393x - 11-port Ethernet switch with 8x 1-Gigabit Ethernet and 3x 10-Gigabit interfaces. - dsa: support for legacy Broadcom tags used on BCM5325, BCM5365 and BCM63xx switches - Microchip KSZ8863 and KSZ8873;

+The kernel function protos will change and the bpf programs will be

-Broadcom Bluetooth Chips
----------------------
-
-This documents the binding structure and common properties for serial
-attached Broadcom devices.
-
-Serial attached Broadcom devices shall be a child node of the host UART
-device the slave device is attached to.
-
-Required properties:
-
- - compatible: should contain one of the following:
- * "brcm,bcm20702a1"
- * "brcm,bcm4329-bt"
- * "brcm,bcm4330-bt"
- * "brcm,bcm43438-bt"
- * "brcm,bcm4345c5"
- * "brcm,bcm43540-bt"
- * "brcm,bcm4335a0"
-
-Optional properties:
-
- - max-speed: see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/serial/serial.yaml
- - shutdown-gpios: GPIO specifier, used to enable the BT module
- - device-wakeup-gpios: GPIO specifier, used to wakeup the controller
- - host-wakeup-gpios: GPIO specifier, used to wakeup the host processor.
- deprecated, replaced by interrupts and
- "host-wakeup" interrupt-names
- - clocks: 1 or 2 clocks as defined in clock-names below, in that order
- - clock-names: names for clock inputs, matching the clocks given
- - "extclk": deprecated, replaced by "txco"
- - "txco": external reference clock (not a standalone crystal)
- - "lpo": external low power 32.768 kHz clock
- - vbat-supply: phandle to regulator supply for VBAT
- - vddio-supply: phandle to regulator supply for VDDIO
- - brcm,bt-pcm-int-params: configure PCM parameters via a 5-byte array
- - sco-routing: 0 = PCM, 1 = Transport, 2 = Codec, 3 = I2S
- - pcm-interface-rate: 128KBps, 256KBps, 512KBps, 1024KBps, 2048KBps
- - pcm-frame-type: short, long
- - pcm-sync-mode: slave, master
- - pcm-clock-mode: slave, master
- - interrupts: must be one, used to wakeup the host processor
- - interrupt-names: must be "host-wakeup"
-
-Example:
-
-&uart2 {
- pinctrl-names = "default";
- pinctrl-0 = <&uart2_pins>;
-
- bluetooth {
- compatible = "brcm,bcm43438-bt";
- max-speed = <921600>;
- brcm,bt-pcm-int-params = [01 02 00 01 01];

@@ -80,6 +74,144 @@ all contain something which:
- identifies which port the Ethernet frame came from/should be sent to
- provides a reason why this frame was forwarded to the management interface
+All tagging protocols are in ``net/dsa/tag_*.c`` files and implement the
+methods of the ``struct dsa_device_ops`` structure, which are detailed below.
+
+Tagging protocols generally fall in one of three categories:
+
+1. The switch-specific frame header is located before the Ethernet header,
+ shifting to the right (from the perspective of the DSA master's frame
+ parser) the MAC DA, MAC SA, EtherType and the entire L2 payload.
+2. The switch-specific frame header is located before the EtherType, keeping
+ the MAC DA and MAC SA in place from the DSA master's perspective, but
+ shifting the 'real' EtherType and L2 payload to the right.
+3. The switch-specific frame header is located at the tail of the packet,
+ keeping all frame headers in place and not altering the view of the packet
+ that the DSA master's frame parser has.
+
+A tagging protocol may tag all packets with switch tags of the same length, or
+the tag length might vary (for example packets with PTP timestamps might
+require an extended switch tag, or there might be one tag length on TX and a
+different one on RX). Either way, the tagging protocol driver must populate the
+``struct dsa_device_ops::overhead`` with the length in octets of the longest
+switch frame header. The DSA framework will automatically adjust the MTU of the
+master interface to accomodate for this extra size in order for DSA user ports
+to support the standard MTU (L2 payload length) of 1500 octets. The ``overhead``
+is also used to request from the network stack, on a best-effort basis, the
+allocation of packets with a ``needed_headroom`` or ``needed_tailroom``
+sufficient such that the act of pushing the switch tag on transmission of a
+packet does not cause it to reallocate due to lack of memory.
+
+Even though applications are not expected to parse DSA-specific frame headers,
+the format on the wire of the tagging protocol represents an Application Binary
+Interface exposed by the kernel towards user space, for decoders such as
+``libpcap``. The tagging protocol driver must populate the ``proto`` member of
+``struct dsa_device_ops`` with a value that uniquely describes the
+characteristics of the interaction required between the switch hardware and the
+data path driver: the offset of each bit field within the frame header and any
+stateful processing required to deal with the frames (as may be required for
+PTP timestamping).
+
+From the perspective of the network stack, all switches within the same DSA
+switch tree use the same tagging protocol. In case of a packet transiting a
+fabric with more than one switch, the switch-specific frame header is inserted
+by the first switch in the fabric that the packet was received on. This header
+typically contains information regarding its type (whether it is a control
+frame that must be trapped to the CPU, or a data frame to be forwarded).
+Control frames should be decapsulated only by the software data path, whereas
+data frames might also be autonomously forwarded towards other user ports of
+other switches from the same fabric, and in this case, the outermost switch
+ports must decapsulate the packet.
+
+Note that in certain cases, it might be the case that the tagging format used
+by a leaf switch (not connected directly to the CPU) to not be the same as what
+the network stack sees. This can be seen with Marvell switch trees, where the
+CPU port can be configured to use either the DSA or the Ethertype DSA (EDSA)
+format, but the DSA links are configured to use the shorter (without Ethertype)
+DSA frame header, in order to reduce the autonomous packet forwarding overhead.
+It still remains the case that, if the DSA switch tree is configured for the
+EDSA tagging protocol, the operating system sees EDSA-tagged packets from the
+leaf switches that tagged them with the shorter DSA header. This can be done
+because the Marvell switch connected directly to the CPU is configured to
+perform tag translation between DSA and EDSA (which is simply the operation of
+adding or removing the ``ETH_P_EDSA`` EtherType and some padding octets).
+
+It is possible to construct cascaded setups of DSA switches even if their
+tagging protocols are not compatible with one another. In this case, there are
+no DSA links in this fabric, and each switch constitutes a disjoint DSA switch
+tree. The DSA links are viewed as simply a pair of a DSA master (the out-facing
+port of the upstream DSA switch) and a CPU port (the in-facing port of the
+downstream DSA switch).
+
+The tagging protocol of the attached DSA switch tree can be viewed through the
+``dsa/tagging`` sysfs attribute of the DSA master::
+
+ cat /sys/class/net/eth0/dsa/tagging
+
+If the hardware and driver are capable, the tagging protocol of the DSA switch
+tree can be changed at runtime. This is done by writing the new tagging
+protocol name to the same sysfs device attribute as above (the DSA master and
+all attached switch ports must be down while doing this).
+
+It is desirable that all tagging protocols are testable with the ``dsa_loop``
+mockup driver, which can be attached to any network interface. The goal is that
+any network interface should be capable of transmitting the same packet in the
+same way, and the tagger should decode the same received packet in the same way
+regardless of the driver used for the switch control path, and the driver used
+for the DSA master.
+
+The transmission of a packet goes through the tagger's ``xmit`` function.
+The passed ``struct sk_buff *skb`` has ``skb->data`` pointing at
+``skb_mac_header(skb)``, i.e. at the destination MAC address, and the passed
+``struct net_device *dev`` represents the virtual DSA user network interface
+whose hardware counterpart the packet must be steered to (i.e. ``swp0``).
+The job of this method is to prepare the skb in a way that the switch will
+understand what egress port the packet is for (and not deliver it towards other
+ports). Typically this is fulfilled by pushing a frame header. Checking for
+insufficient size in the skb headroom or tailroom is unnecessary provided that
+the ``overhead`` and ``tail_tag`` properties were filled out properly, because
+DSA ensures there is enough space before calling this method.
+
+The reception of a packet goes through the tagger's ``rcv`` function. The
+passed ``struct sk_buff *skb`` has ``skb->data`` pointing at
+``skb_mac_header(skb) + ETH_ALEN`` octets, i.e. to where the first octet after
+the EtherType would have been, were this frame not tagged. The role of this
+method is to consume the frame header, adjust ``skb->data`` to really point at
+the first octet after the EtherType, and to change ``skb->dev`` to point to the
+virtual DSA user network interface corresponding to the physical front-facing
+switch port that the packet was received on.
+
+Since tagging protocols in category 1 and 2 break software (and most often also
+hardware) packet dissection on the DSA master, features such as RPS (Receive
+Packet Steering) on the DSA master would be broken. The DSA framework deals
+with this by hooking into the flow dissector and shifting the offset at which
+the IP header is to be found in the tagged frame as seen by the DSA master.
+This behavior is automatic based on the ``overhead`` value of the tagging
+protocol. If not all packets are of equal size, the tagger can implement the
+``flow_dissect`` method of the ``struct dsa_device_ops`` and override this
+default behavior by specifying the correct offset incurred by each individual
+RX packet. Tail taggers do not cause issues to the flow dissector.
+
+Due to various reasons (most common being category 1 taggers being associated
+with DSA-unaware masters, mangling what the master perceives as MAC DA), the
+tagging protocol may require the DSA master to operate in promiscuous mode, to
+receive all frames regardless of the value of the MAC DA. This can be done by
+setting the ``promisc_on_master`` property of the ``struct dsa_device_ops``.
+Note that this assumes a DSA-unaware master driver, which is the norm.
+
+Hardware manufacturers are strongly discouraged to do this, but some tagging
+protocols might not provide source port information on RX for all packets, but
+e.g. only for control traffic (link-local PDUs). In this case, by implementing
+the ``filter`` method of ``struct dsa_device_ops``, the tagger might select
+which packets are to be redirected on RX towards the virtual DSA user network
+interfaces, and which are to be left in the DSA master's RX data path.
+
+It might also happen (although silicon vendors are strongly discouraged to
+produce hardware like this) that a tagging protocol splits the switch-specific
+information into a header portion and a tail portion, therefore not falling
+cleanly into any of the above 3 categories. DSA does not support this
+configuration.

+Link aggregation
+----------------
+
+Link aggregation is implemented in the Linux networking stack by the bonding
+and team drivers, which are modeled as virtual, stackable network interfaces.
+DSA is capable of offloading a link aggregation group (LAG) to hardware that
+supports the feature, and supports bridging between physical ports and LAGs,
+as well as between LAGs. A bonding/team interface which holds multiple physical
+ports constitutes a logical port, although DSA has no explicit concept of a
+logical port at the moment. Due to this, events where a LAG joins/leaves a
+bridge are treated as if all individual physical ports that are members of that
+LAG join/leave the bridge. Switchdev port attributes (VLAN filtering, STP
+state, etc) and objects (VLANs, MDB entries) offloaded to a LAG as bridge port
+are treated similarly: DSA offloads the same switchdev object / port attribute
+on all members of the LAG. Static bridge FDB entries on a LAG are not yet
+supported, since the DSA driver API does not have the concept of a logical port
+ID.
+
+- ``port_lag_join``: function invoked when a given switch port is added to a
+ LAG. The driver may return ``-EOPNOTSUPP``, and in this case, DSA will fall
+ back to a software implementation where all traffic from this port is sent to

+ and returns to operation as a standalone port.
+- ``port_lag_change``: function invoked when the link state of any member of
+ the LAG changes, and the hashing function needs rebalancing to only make use
+ of the subset of physical LAG member ports that are up.
+
+Drivers that benefit from having an ID associated with each offloaded LAG
+can optionally populate ``ds->num_lag_ids`` from the ``dsa_switch_ops::setup``
+method. The LAG ID associated with a bonding/team interface can then be
+retrieved by a DSA switch driver using the ``dsa_lag_id`` function.
+
+IEC 62439-2 (MRP)
+-----------------
+
+The Media Redundancy Protocol is a topology management protocol optimized for
+fast fault recovery time for ring networks, which has some components
+implemented as a function of the bridge driver. MRP uses management PDUs
+(Test, Topology, LinkDown/Up, Option) sent at a multicast destination MAC
+address range of 01:15:4e:00:00:0x and with an EtherType of 0x88e3.
+Depending on the node's role in the ring (MRM: Media Redundancy Manager,
+MRC: Media Redundancy Client, MRA: Media Redundancy Automanager), certain MRP
+PDUs might need to be terminated locally and others might need to be forwarded.
+An MRM might also benefit from offloading to hardware the creation and
+transmission of certain MRP PDUs (Test).
+
+Normally an MRP instance can be created on top of any network interface,
+however in the case of a device with an offloaded data path such as DSA, it is
+necessary for the hardware, even if it is not MRP-aware, to be able to extract
+the MRP PDUs from the fabric before the driver can proceed with the software
+implementation. DSA today has no driver which is MRP-aware, therefore it only
+listens for the bare minimum switchdev objects required for the software assist
+to work properly. The operations are detailed below.
+
+- ``port_mrp_add`` and ``port_mrp_del``: notifies driver when an MRP instance

+ which MRP PDUs should be trapped to software and which should be autonomously
+ forwarded.
+
+IEC 62439-3 (HSR/PRP)
+---------------------
+
+The Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is a network redundancy protocol which
+works by duplicating and sequence numbering packets through two independent L2
+networks (which are unaware of the PRP tail tags carried in the packets), and
+eliminating the duplicates at the receiver. The High-availability Seamless
+Redundancy (HSR) protocol is similar in concept, except all nodes that carry
+the redundant traffic are aware of the fact that it is HSR-tagged (because HSR
+uses a header with an EtherType of 0x892f) and are physically connected in a
+ring topology. Both HSR and PRP use supervision frames for monitoring the
+health of the network and for discovery of other nodes.
+
+In Linux, both HSR and PRP are implemented in the hsr driver, which
+instantiates a virtual, stackable network interface with two member ports.
+The driver only implements the basic roles of DANH (Doubly Attached Node
+implementing HSR) and DANP (Doubly Attached Node implementing PRP); the roles
+of RedBox and QuadBox are not implemented (therefore, bridging a hsr network
+interface with a physical switch port does not produce the expected result).
+
+A driver which is able of offloading certain functions of a DANP or DANH should
+declare the corresponding netdev features as indicated by the documentation at
+``Documentation/networking/netdev-features.rst``. Additionally, the following
+methods must be implemented:
+
+- ``port_hsr_join``: function invoked when a given switch port is added to a
+ DANP/DANH. The driver may return ``-EOPNOTSUPP`` and in this case, DSA will
+ fall back to a software implementation where all traffic from this port is
+ sent to the CPU.
+- ``port_hsr_leave``: function invoked when a given switch port leaves a
+ DANP/DANH and returns to normal operation as a standalone port.

+entries) are also listed inside ``ETHTOOL_A_STATS_GRP`` and do not have
+a string defined in the string set.
+
+RMON "histogram" counters count number of packets within given size range.
+Because RFC does not specify the ranges beyond the standard 1518 MTU devices
+differ in definition of buckets. For this reason the definition of packet ranges
+is left to each driver.

+=========================
+Resilient Next-hop Groups
+=========================
+
+Resilient groups are a type of next-hop group that is aimed at minimizing
+disruption in flow routing across changes to the group composition and
+weights of constituent next hops.
+
+The idea behind resilient hashing groups is best explained in contrast to
+the legacy multipath next-hop group, which uses the hash-threshold
+algorithm, described in RFC 2992.
+
+To select a next hop, hash-threshold algorithm first assigns a range of
+hashes to each next hop in the group, and then selects the next hop by
+comparing the SKB hash with the individual ranges. When a next hop is
+removed from the group, the ranges are recomputed, which leads to
+reassignment of parts of hash space from one next hop to another. RFC 2992
+illustrates it thus::
+
+ +-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+
+ | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
+ +-------+-+-----+---+---+-----+-+-------+
+ | 1 | 2 | 4 | 5 |
+ +---------+---------+---------+---------+
+
+ Before and after deletion of next hop 3
+ under the hash-threshold algorithm.
+
+Note how next hop 2 gave up part of the hash space in favor of next hop 1,
+and 4 in favor of 5. While there will usually be some overlap between the
+previous and the new distribution, some traffic flows change the next hop
+that they resolve to.
+
+If a multipath group is used for load-balancing between multiple servers,
+this hash space reassignment causes an issue that packets from a single
+flow suddenly end up arriving at a server that does not expect them. This
+can result in TCP connections being reset.
+
+If a multipath group is used for load-balancing among available paths to
+the same server, the issue is that different latencies and reordering along
+the way causes the packets to arrive in the wrong order, resulting in
+degraded application performance.
+
+To mitigate the above-mentioned flow redirection, resilient next-hop groups
+insert another layer of indirection between the hash space and its
+constituent next hops: a hash table. The selection algorithm uses SKB hash
+to choose a hash table bucket, then reads the next hop that this bucket
+contains, and forwards traffic there.
+
+This indirection brings an important feature. In the hash-threshold
+algorithm, the range of hashes associated with a next hop must be
+continuous. With a hash table, mapping between the hash table buckets and
+the individual next hops is arbitrary. Therefore when a next hop is deleted
+the buckets that held it are simply reassigned to other next hops::
+
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ |1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|3|3|3|3|4|4|4|4|5|5|5|5|
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ v v v v
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+ |1|1|1|1|2|2|2|2|1|2|4|5|4|4|4|4|5|5|5|5|
+ +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
+
+ Before and after deletion of next hop 3
+ under the resilient hashing algorithm.
+
+When weights of next hops in a group are altered, it may be possible to
+choose a subset of buckets that are currently not used for forwarding
+traffic, and use those to satisfy the new next-hop distribution demands,
+keeping the "busy" buckets intact. This way, established flows are ideally
+kept being forwarded to the same endpoints through the same paths as before
+the next-hop group change.
+
+Algorithm
+---------
+
+In a nutshell, the algorithm works as follows. Each next hop deserves a
+certain number of buckets, according to its weight and the number of
+buckets in the hash table. In accordance with the source code, we will call
+this number a "wants count" of a next hop. In case of an event that might
+cause bucket allocation change, the wants counts for individual next hops
+are updated.
+
+Next hops that have fewer buckets than their wants count, are called
+"underweight". Those that have more are "overweight". If there are no
+overweight (and therefore no underweight) next hops in the group, it is
+said to be "balanced".
+
+Each bucket maintains a last-used timer. Every time a packet is forwarded
+through a bucket, this timer is updated to current jiffies value. One
+attribute of a resilient group is then the "idle timer", which is the
+amount of time that a bucket must not be hit by traffic in order for it to
+be considered "idle". Buckets that are not idle are busy.
+
+After assigning wants counts to next hops, an "upkeep" algorithm runs. For
+buckets:
+
+1) that have no assigned next hop, or
+2) whose next hop has been removed, or
+3) that are idle and their next hop is overweight,
+
+upkeep changes the next hop that the bucket references to one of the
+underweight next hops. If, after considering all buckets in this manner,
+there are still underweight next hops, another upkeep run is scheduled to a
+future time.
+
+There may not be enough "idle" buckets to satisfy the updated wants counts
+of all next hops. Another attribute of a resilient group is the "unbalanced
+timer". This timer can be set to 0, in which case the table will stay out
+of balance until idle buckets do appear, possibly never. If set to a
+non-zero value, the value represents the period of time that the table is
+permitted to stay out of balance.
+
+With this in mind, we update the above list of conditions with one more
+item. Thus buckets:
+
+4) whose next hop is overweight, and the amount of time that the table has
+ been out of balance exceeds the unbalanced timer, if that is non-zero,
+
+\... are migrated as well.
+
+Offloading & Driver Feedback
+----------------------------
+
+When offloading resilient groups, the algorithm that distributes buckets
+among next hops is still the one in SW. Drivers are notified of updates to
+next hop groups in the following three ways:
+
+- Full group notification with the type
+ ``NH_NOTIFIER_INFO_TYPE_RES_TABLE``. This is used just after the group is
+ created and buckets populated for the first time.
+
+- Single-bucket notifications of the type
+ ``NH_NOTIFIER_INFO_TYPE_RES_BUCKET``, which is used for notifications of
+ individual migrations within an already-established group.
+
+- Pre-replace notification, ``NEXTHOP_EVENT_RES_TABLE_PRE_REPLACE``. This
+ is sent before the group is replaced, and is a way for the driver to veto
+ the group before committing anything to the HW.
+
+Some single-bucket notifications are forced, as indicated by the "force"
+flag in the notification. Those are used for the cases where e.g. the next
+hop associated with the bucket was removed, and the bucket really must be
+migrated.
+
+Non-forced notifications can be overridden by the driver by returning an
+error code. The use case for this is that the driver notifies the HW that a
+bucket should be migrated, but the HW discovers that the bucket has in fact
+been hit by traffic.
+
+A second way for the HW to report that a bucket is busy is through the
+``nexthop_res_grp_activity_update()`` API. The buckets identified this way
+as busy are treated as if traffic hit them.
+
+Offloaded buckets should be flagged as either "offload" or "trap". This is
+done through the ``nexthop_bucket_set_hw_flags()`` API.
+

+
+Resilient Group Replacement
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Resilient groups are configured using the ``RTM_NEWNEXTHOP`` message in the
+same manner as other multipath groups. The following changes apply to the
+attributes passed in the netlink message:
+
+ =================== =========================================================
+ ``NHA_GROUP_TYPE`` Should be ``NEXTHOP_GRP_TYPE_RES`` for resilient group.
+ ``NHA_RES_GROUP`` A nest that contains attributes specific to resilient
+ groups.
+ =================== =========================================================
+
+``NHA_RES_GROUP`` payload:
+
+ =================================== =========================================
+ ``NHA_RES_GROUP_BUCKETS`` Number of buckets in the hash table.
+ ``NHA_RES_GROUP_IDLE_TIMER`` Idle timer in units of clock_t.
+ ``NHA_RES_GROUP_UNBALANCED_TIMER`` Unbalanced timer in units of clock_t.
+ =================================== =========================================
+
+Next Hop Get
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Requests to get resilient next-hop groups use the ``RTM_GETNEXTHOP``
+message in exactly the same way as other next hop get requests. The
+response attributes match the replacement attributes cited above, except
+``NHA_RES_GROUP`` payload will include the following attribute:
+
+ =================================== =========================================
+ ``NHA_RES_GROUP_UNBALANCED_TIME`` How long has the resilient group been out
+ of balance, in units of clock_t.
+ =================================== =========================================
+
+Bucket Get
+^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The message ``RTM_GETNEXTHOPBUCKET`` without the ``NLM_F_DUMP`` flag is
+used to request a single bucket. The attributes recognized at get requests
+are:
+
+ =================== =========================================================
+ ``NHA_ID`` ID of the next-hop group that the bucket belongs to.
+ ``NHA_RES_BUCKET`` A nest that contains attributes specific to bucket.
+ =================== =========================================================
+
+``NHA_RES_BUCKET`` payload:
+
+ ======================== ====================================================
+ ``NHA_RES_BUCKET_INDEX`` Index of bucket in the resilient table.
+ ======================== ====================================================
+
+Bucket Dumps
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The message ``RTM_GETNEXTHOPBUCKET`` with the ``NLM_F_DUMP`` flag is used
+to request a dump of matching buckets. The attributes recognized at dump
+requests are:
+
+ =================== =========================================================
+ ``NHA_ID`` If specified, limits the dump to just the next-hop group
+ with this ID.
+ ``NHA_OIF`` If specified, limits the dump to buckets that contain
+ next hops that use the device with this ifindex.
+ ``NHA_MASTER`` If specified, limits the dump to buckets that contain
+ next hops that use a device in the VRF with this ifindex.
+ ``NHA_RES_BUCKET`` A nest that contains attributes specific to bucket.
+ =================== =========================================================
+
+``NHA_RES_BUCKET`` payload:
+
+ ======================== ====================================================
+ ``NHA_RES_BUCKET_NH_ID`` If specified, limits the dump to just the buckets
+ that contain the next hop with this ID.
+ ======================== ====================================================
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+To illustrate the usage, consider the following commands::
+
+ # ip nexthop add id 1 via 192.0.2.2 dev eth0
+ # ip nexthop add id 2 via 192.0.2.3 dev eth0
+ # ip nexthop add id 10 group 1/2 type resilient \
+ buckets 8 idle_timer 60 unbalanced_timer 300
+
+The last command creates a resilient next-hop group. It will have 8 buckets
+(which is unusually low number, and used here for demonstration purposes
+only), each bucket will be considered idle when no traffic hits it for at
+least 60 seconds, and if the table remains out of balance for 300 seconds,
+it will be forcefully brought into balance.
+
+Changing next-hop weights leads to change in bucket allocation::
+
+ # ip nexthop replace id 10 group 1,3/2 type resilient
+
+This can be confirmed by looking at individual buckets::
+
+ # ip nexthop bucket show id 10
+ id 10 index 0 idle_time 5.59 nhid 1
+ id 10 index 1 idle_time 5.59 nhid 1
+ id 10 index 2 idle_time 8.74 nhid 2
+ id 10 index 3 idle_time 8.74 nhid 2
+ id 10 index 4 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1
+ id 10 index 5 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1
+ id 10 index 6 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1
+ id 10 index 7 idle_time 8.74 nhid 1
+
+Note the two buckets that have a shorter idle time. Those are the ones that
+were migrated after the next-hop replace command to satisfy the new demand
+that next hop 1 be given 6 buckets instead of 4.
+
+Netdevsim
+---------
+
+The netdevsim driver implements a mock offload of resilient groups, and
+exposes debugfs interface that allows marking individual buckets as busy.
+For example, the following will mark bucket 23 in next-hop group 10 as
+active::
+
+ # echo 10 23 > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/fib/nexthop_bucket_activity
+
+In addition, another debugfs interface can be used to configure that the
+next attempt to migrate a bucket should fail::
+
+ # echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/fib/fail_nexthop_bucket_replace
+
+Besides serving as an example, the interfaces that netdevsim exposes are
+useful in automated testing, and
+``tools/testing/selftests/drivers/net/netdevsim/nexthop.sh`` makes use of
+them to test the algorithm.

Netfilter's flowtable infrastructure
====================================
-This documentation describes the software flowtable infrastructure available in
-Netfilter since Linux kernel 4.16.
+This documentation describes the Netfilter flowtable infrastructure which allows
+you to define a fastpath through the flowtable datapath. This infrastructure
+also provides hardware offload support. The flowtable supports for the layer 3
+IPv4 and IPv6 and the layer 4 TCP and UDP protocols.
Overview
--------
-Initial packets follow the classic forwarding path, once the flow enters the
-established state according to the conntrack semantics (ie. we have seen traffic
-in both directions), then you can decide to offload the flow to the flowtable
-from the forward chain via the 'flow offload' action available in nftables.
+Once the first packet of the flow successfully goes through the IP forwarding
+path, from the second packet on, you might decide to offload the flow to the
+flowtable through your ruleset. The flowtable infrastructure provides a rule
+action that allows you to specify when to add a flow to the flowtable.
-Packets that find an entry in the flowtable (ie. flowtable hit) are sent to the
-output netdevice via neigh_xmit(), hence, they bypass the classic forwarding
-path (the visible effect is that you do not see these packets from any of the
-netfilter hooks coming after the ingress). In case of flowtable miss, the packet
-follows the classic forward path.
+A packet that finds a matching entry in the flowtable (ie. flowtable hit) is

+packets from any of the Netfilter hooks coming after ingress). In case that
+there is no matching entry in the flowtable (ie. flowtable miss), the packet
+follows the classic IP forwarding path.
-The flowtable uses a resizable hashtable, lookups are based on the following
-7-tuple selectors: source, destination, layer 3 and layer 4 protocols, source
-and destination ports and the input interface (useful in case there are several
-conntrack zones in place).
+The flowtable uses a resizable hashtable. Lookups are based on the following
+n-tuple selectors: layer 2 protocol encapsulation (VLAN and PPPoE), layer 3
+source and destination, layer 4 source and destination ports and the input
+interface (useful in case there are several conntrack zones in place).
-Flowtables are populated via the 'flow offload' nftables action, so the user can
-selectively specify what flows are placed into the flow table. Hence, packets
-follow the classic forwarding path unless the user explicitly instruct packets
-to use this new alternative forwarding path via nftables policy.
+The 'flow add' action allows you to populate the flowtable, the user selectively
+specifies what flows are placed into the flowtable. Hence, packets follow the
+classic IP forwarding path unless the user explicitly instruct flows to use this
+new alternative forwarding path via policy.

+Layer 2 encapsulation
+---------------------
+
+Since Linux kernel 5.13, the flowtable infrastructure discovers the real
+netdevice behind VLAN and PPPoE netdevices. The flowtable software datapath
+parses the VLAN and PPPoE layer 2 headers to extract the ethertype and the
+VLAN ID / PPPoE session ID which are used for the flowtable lookups. The
+flowtable datapath also deals with layer 2 decapsulation.
+
+You do not need to add the PPPoE and the VLAN devices to your flowtable,
+instead the real device is sufficient for the flowtable to track your flows.
+
+Bridge and IP forwarding
+------------------------
+
+Since Linux kernel 5.13, you can add bridge ports to the flowtable. The
+flowtable infrastructure discovers the topology behind the bridge device. This
+allows the flowtable to define a fastpath bypass between the bridge ports
+(represented as eth1 and eth2 in the example figure below) and the gateway
+device (represented as eth0) in your switch/router.
+

+
+The flowtable infrastructure also supports for bridge VLAN filtering actions
+such as PVID and untagged. You can also stack a classic VLAN device on top of
+your bridge port.

+If you would like that your flowtable defines a fastpath between your bridge
+ports and your IP forwarding path, you have to add your bridge ports (as
+represented by the real netdevice) to your flowtable definition.
+
+Counters
+--------
+
+The flowtable can synchronize packet and byte counters with the existing
+connection tracking entry by specifying the counter statement in your flowtable
+definition, e.g.
+
+::
+
+ table inet x {
+ flowtable f {
+ hook ingress priority 0; devices = { eth0, eth1 };
+ counter
+ }
+ }
+
+Counter support is available since Linux kernel 5.7.
+
+Hardware offload
+----------------
+
+If your network device provides hardware offload support, you can turn it on by
+means of the 'offload' flag in your flowtable definition, e.g.
+
+::
+
+ table inet x {
+ flowtable f {
+ hook ingress priority 0; devices = { eth0, eth1 };
+ flags offload;
+ }
+ }
+
+There is a workqueue that adds the flows to the hardware. Note that a few
+packets might still run over the flowtable software path until the workqueue has
+a chance to offload the flow to the network device.
+
+You can identify hardware offloaded flows through the [HW_OFFLOAD] tag when
+listing your connection tracking table. Please, note that the [OFFLOAD] tag
+refers to the software offload mode, so there is a distinction between [OFFLOAD]
+which refers to the software flowtable fastpath and [HW_OFFLOAD] which refers
+to the hardware offload datapath being used by the flow.
+
+The flowtable hardware offload infrastructure also supports for the DSA
+(Distributed Switch Architecture).
+
+Limitations
+-----------
+
+The flowtable behaves like a cache. The flowtable entries might get stale if
+either the destination MAC address or the egress netdevice that is used for
+transmission changes.
+
+This might be a problem if:
+
+- You run the flowtable in software mode and you combine bridge and IP
+ forwarding in your setup.
+- Hardware offload is enabled.

+A driver which implements the ``ndo_fdb_add``, ``ndo_fdb_del`` and
+``ndo_fdb_dump`` operations is able to support the command below, which adds a
+static bridge FDB entry::
+
+ bridge fdb add dev DEV ADDRESS [vlan VID] [self] static
+
+(the "static" keyword is non-optional: if not specified, the entry defaults to
+being "local", which means that it should not be forwarded)
+
+The "self" keyword (optional because it is implicit) has the role of
+instructing the kernel to fulfill the operation through the ``ndo_fdb_add``
+implementation of the ``DEV`` device itself. If ``DEV`` is a bridge port, this
+will bypass the bridge and therefore leave the software database out of sync
+with the hardware one.
+
+To avoid this, the "master" keyword can be used::
+
+ bridge fdb add dev DEV ADDRESS [vlan VID] master static
+
+The above command instructs the kernel to search for a master interface of
+``DEV`` and fulfill the operation through the ``ndo_fdb_add`` method of that.
+This time, the bridge generates a ``SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE`` notification
+which the port driver can handle and use it to program its hardware table. This
+way, the software and the hardware database will both contain this static FDB
+entry.
+
+Note: for new switchdev drivers that offload the Linux bridge, implementing the
+``ndo_fdb_add`` and ``ndo_fdb_del`` bridge bypass methods is strongly
+discouraged: all static FDB entries should be added on a bridge port using the

+
+Device driver expected behavior
+-------------------------------
+
+Below is a set of defined behavior that switchdev enabled network devices must
+adhere to.
+
+Configuration-less state
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+Upon driver bring up, the network devices must be fully operational, and the
+backing driver must configure the network device such that it is possible to
+send and receive traffic to this network device and it is properly separated
+from other network devices/ports (e.g.: as is frequent with a switch ASIC). How
+this is achieved is heavily hardware dependent, but a simple solution can be to
+use per-port VLAN identifiers unless a better mechanism is available
+(proprietary metadata for each network port for instance).
+
+The network device must be capable of running a full IP protocol stack
+including multicast, DHCP, IPv4/6, etc. If necessary, it should program the
+appropriate filters for VLAN, multicast, unicast etc. The underlying device
+driver must effectively be configured in a similar fashion to what it would do
+when IGMP snooping is enabled for IP multicast over these switchdev network
+devices and unsolicited multicast must be filtered as early as possible in
+the hardware.
+
+When configuring VLANs on top of the network device, all VLANs must be working,
+irrespective of the state of other network devices (e.g.: other ports being part
+of a VLAN-aware bridge doing ingress VID checking). See below for details.
+
+If the device implements e.g.: VLAN filtering, putting the interface in
+promiscuous mode should allow the reception of all VLAN tags (including those
+not present in the filter(s)).
+
+Bridged switch ports
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+When a switchdev enabled network device is added as a bridge member, it should
+not disrupt any functionality of non-bridged network devices and they
+should continue to behave as normal network devices. Depending on the bridge
+configuration knobs below, the expected behavior is documented.
+
+Bridge VLAN filtering
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Linux bridge allows the configuration of a VLAN filtering mode (statically,
+at device creation time, and dynamically, during run time) which must be
+observed by the underlying switchdev network device/hardware:
+
+- with VLAN filtering turned off: the bridge is strictly VLAN unaware and its
+ data path will process all Ethernet frames as if they are VLAN-untagged.
+ The bridge VLAN database can still be modified, but the modifications should
+ have no effect while VLAN filtering is turned off. Frames ingressing the
+ device with a VID that is not programmed into the bridge/switch's VLAN table
+ must be forwarded and may be processed using a VLAN device (see below).
+
+- with VLAN filtering turned on: the bridge is VLAN-aware and frames ingressing
+ the device with a VID that is not programmed into the bridges/switch's VLAN
+ table must be dropped (strict VID checking).
+
+When there is a VLAN device (e.g: sw0p1.100) configured on top of a switchdev
+network device which is a bridge port member, the behavior of the software
+network stack must be preserved, or the configuration must be refused if that
+is not possible.
+
+- with VLAN filtering turned off, the bridge will process all ingress traffic
+ for the port, except for the traffic tagged with a VLAN ID destined for a
+ VLAN upper. The VLAN upper interface (which consumes the VLAN tag) can even
+ be added to a second bridge, which includes other switch ports or software
+ interfaces. Some approaches to ensure that the forwarding domain for traffic
+ belonging to the VLAN upper interfaces are managed properly:
+
+ * If forwarding destinations can be managed per VLAN, the hardware could be
+ configured to map all traffic, except the packets tagged with a VID
+ belonging to a VLAN upper interface, to an internal VID corresponding to
+ untagged packets. This internal VID spans all ports of the VLAN-unaware
+ bridge. The VID corresponding to the VLAN upper interface spans the
+ physical port of that VLAN interface, as well as the other ports that
+ might be bridged with it.
+ * Treat bridge ports with VLAN upper interfaces as standalone, and let
+ forwarding be handled in the software data path.
+
+- with VLAN filtering turned on, these VLAN devices can be created as long as
+ the bridge does not have an existing VLAN entry with the same VID on any
+ bridge port. These VLAN devices cannot be enslaved into the bridge since they
+ duplicate functionality/use case with the bridge's VLAN data path processing.
+
+Non-bridged network ports of the same switch fabric must not be disturbed in any
+way by the enabling of VLAN filtering on the bridge device(s). If the VLAN
+filtering setting is global to the entire chip, then the standalone ports
+should indicate to the network stack that VLAN filtering is required by setting
+'rx-vlan-filter: on [fixed]' in the ethtool features.
+
+Because VLAN filtering can be turned on/off at runtime, the switchdev driver
+must be able to reconfigure the underlying hardware on the fly to honor the
+toggling of that option and behave appropriately. If that is not possible, the
+switchdev driver can also refuse to support dynamic toggling of the VLAN
+filtering knob at runtime and require a destruction of the bridge device(s) and
+creation of new bridge device(s) with a different VLAN filtering value to
+ensure VLAN awareness is pushed down to the hardware.
+
+Even when VLAN filtering in the bridge is turned off, the underlying switch
+hardware and driver may still configure itself in a VLAN-aware mode provided
+that the behavior described above is observed.
+
+The VLAN protocol of the bridge plays a role in deciding whether a packet is
+treated as tagged or not: a bridge using the 802.1ad protocol must treat both
+VLAN-untagged packets, as well as packets tagged with 802.1Q headers, as
+untagged.
+
+The 802.1p (VID 0) tagged packets must be treated in the same way by the device
+as untagged packets, since the bridge device does not allow the manipulation of
+VID 0 in its database.
+
+When the bridge has VLAN filtering enabled and a PVID is not configured on the
+ingress port, untagged and 802.1p tagged packets must be dropped. When the bridge
+has VLAN filtering enabled and a PVID exists on the ingress port, untagged and
+priority-tagged packets must be accepted and forwarded according to the
+bridge's port membership of the PVID VLAN. When the bridge has VLAN filtering
+disabled, the presence/lack of a PVID should not influence the packet
+forwarding decision.
+
+Bridge IGMP snooping
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+The Linux bridge allows the configuration of IGMP snooping (statically, at
+interface creation time, or dynamically, during runtime) which must be observed
+by the underlying switchdev network device/hardware in the following way:
+
+- when IGMP snooping is turned off, multicast traffic must be flooded to all
+ ports within the same bridge that have mcast_flood=true. The CPU/management
+ port should ideally not be flooded (unless the ingress interface has
+ IFF_ALLMULTI or IFF_PROMISC) and continue to learn multicast traffic through
+ the network stack notifications. If the hardware is not capable of doing that
+ then the CPU/management port must also be flooded and multicast filtering
+ happens in software.
+
+- when IGMP snooping is turned on, multicast traffic must selectively flow
+ to the appropriate network ports (including CPU/management port). Flooding of
+ unknown multicast should be only towards the ports connected to a multicast
+ router (the local device may also act as a multicast router).
+
+The switch must adhere to RFC 4541 and flood multicast traffic accordingly
+since that is what the Linux bridge implementation does.
+
+Because IGMP snooping can be turned on/off at runtime, the switchdev driver
+must be able to reconfigure the underlying hardware on the fly to honor the
+toggling of that option and behave appropriately.
+
+A switchdev driver can also refuse to support dynamic toggling of the multicast
+snooping knob at runtime and require the destruction of the bridge device(s)
+and creation of a new bridge device(s) with a different multicast snooping
+value.

+ in skb->cb and enqueue a tx skb queue. Typically, a switch will have a
+ PTP TX timestamp register (or sometimes a FIFO) where the timestamp
+ becomes available. In case of a FIFO, the hardware might store

-Possible Problems
-=================
-
-(Henner Eisen, 2000-10-28)
-
-The X.25 packet layer protocol depends on a reliable datalink service.
-The LAPB protocol provides such reliable service. But this reliability
-is not preserved by the Linux network device driver interface:
-
-- With Linux 2.4.x (and above) SMP kernels, packet ordering is not
- preserved. Even if a device driver calls netif_rx(skb1) and later
- netif_rx(skb2), skb2 might be delivered to the network layer
- earlier that skb1.
-- Data passed upstream by means of netif_rx() might be dropped by the
- kernel if the backlog queue is congested.
-
-The X.25 packet layer protocol will detect this and reset the virtual
-call in question. But many upper layer protocols are not designed to
-handle such N-Reset events gracefully. And frequent N-Reset events
-will always degrade performance.
-
-Thus, driver authors should make netif_rx() as reliable as possible:
-
-SMP re-ordering will not occur if the driver's interrupt handler is
-always executed on the same CPU. Thus,
-
-- Driver authors should use irq affinity for the interrupt handler.
-
-The probability of packet loss due to backlog congestion can be
-reduced by the following measures or a combination thereof:
-
-(1) Drivers for kernel versions 2.4.x and above should always check the
- return value of netif_rx(). If it returns NET_RX_DROP, the
- driver's LAPB protocol must not confirm reception of the frame
- to the peer.
- This will reliably suppress packet loss. The LAPB protocol will
- automatically cause the peer to re-transmit the dropped packet
- later.
- The lapb module interface was modified to support this. Its
- data_indication() method should now transparently pass the
- netif_rx() return value to the (lapb module) caller.
-(2) Drivers for kernel versions 2.2.x should always check the global
- variable netdev_dropping when a new frame is received. The driver
- should only call netif_rx() if netdev_dropping is zero. Otherwise
- the driver should not confirm delivery of the frame and drop it.
- Alternatively, the driver can queue the frame internally and call
- netif_rx() later when netif_dropping is 0 again. In that case, delivery
- confirmation should also be deferred such that the internal queue
- cannot grow to much.
- This will not reliably avoid packet loss, but the probability
- of packet loss in netif_rx() path will be significantly reduced.
-(3) Additionally, driver authors might consider to support
- CONFIG_NET_HW_FLOWCONTROL. This allows the driver to be woken up
- when a previously congested backlog queue becomes empty again.
- The driver could uses this for flow-controlling the peer by means
- of the LAPB protocol's flow-control service.
+Packets should not be reordered or dropped when delivering between the
+Packet Layer and the device driver.
+
+To avoid packets from being reordered or dropped when delivering from
+the device driver to the Packet Layer, the device driver should not
+call "netif_rx" to deliver the received packets. Instead, it should
+call "netif_receive_skb_core" from softirq context to deliver them.
