2014-06-18mlx4_en: don't use napi_synchronize inside mlx4_en_netpollChris Mason
commit c98235cb8584a72e95786e17d695a8e5fafcd766 upstream. The mlx4 driver is triggering schedules while atomic inside mlx4_en_netpoll: spin_lock_irqsave(&cq->lock, flags); napi_synchronize(&cq->napi); ^^^^^ msleep here mlx4_en_process_rx_cq(dev, cq, 0); spin_unlock_irqrestore(&cq->lock, flags); This was part of a patch by Alexander Guller from Mellanox in 2011, but it still isn't upstream.

2014-02-17netdevice: add queue selection fallback handler for ndo_select_queueDaniel Borkmann
Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx(); fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers invoke this function within their customized implementation in case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc). This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that function to modules can be undone. Suggested-by: David S.

2014-01-13net/mlx4_en: call gro handler for encapsulated framesEric Dumazet
In order to use the native GRO handling of encapsulated protocols on mlx4, we need to call napi_gro_receive() instead of netif_receive_skb() unless busy polling is in action. While we are at it, rename mlx4_en_cq_ll_polling() to mlx4_en_cq_busy_polling() Tested with GRE tunnel : GRO aggregation is now performed on the ethernet device instead of being done later on gre device.

2014-01-10net: core: explicitly select a txq before doing l2 forwardingJason Wang
Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The will cause several issues: - NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or control path. - dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device watchdog. - dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash when tso is disabled for lower device. Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2 forwarding transmission. With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission. In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it provides a necessary synchronization method.

2014-01-02mlx4_en: Add PTP hardware clockShawn Bohrer
This adds a PHC to the mlx4_en driver. We use reader/writer spinlocks to protect the timecounter since every packet received needs to call timecounter_cycle2time() when timestamping is enabled. This can become a performance bottleneck with RSS and multiple receive queues if normal spinlocks are used.

2013-06-25mlx4: allow order-0 memory allocations in RX pathEric Dumazet
Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> mlx4 exclusively uses order-2 allocations in RX path, which are likely to fail under memory pressure. We therefore drop frames more than needed. This patch tries order-3, order-2, order-1 and finally order-0 allocations to keep good performance, yet allow allocations if/when memory gets fragmented. By using larger pages, and avoiding unnecessary get_page()/put_page() on compound pages, this patch improves performance as well, lowering false sharing on struct page. Also use GFP_KERNEL allocations in initialization path, as allocating 12 MB (390 order-3 pages) can easily fail with GFP_ATOMIC.

2012-11-26mlx4: 64-byte CQE/EQE supportOr Gerlitz
ConnectX-3 devices can use either 64- or 32-byte completion queue entries (CQEs) and event queue entries (EQEs). Using 64-byte EQEs/CQEs performs better because each entry is aligned to a complete cacheline. This patch queries the HCA's capabilities, and if it supports 64-byte CQEs and EQES the driver will configure the HW to work in 64-byte mode. The 32-byte vs 64-byte mode is global per HCA and not per CQ or EQ. Since this mode is global, userspace (libmlx4) must be updated to work with the configured CQE size, and guests using SR-IOV virtual functions need to know both EQE and CQE size. In case one of the 64-byte CQE/EQE capabilities is activated, the patch makes sure that older guest drivers that use the QUERY_DEV_FUNC command (e.g as done in mlx4_core of Linux 3.3..3.6) will notice that they need an update to be able to work with the PPF. This is done by changing the returned pf_context_behaviour not to be zero any more. In case none of these capabilities is activated that value remains zero and older guest drivers can run OK. The SRIOV related flow is as follows 1. the PPF does the detection of the new capabilities using QUERY_DEV_CAP command. 2. the PPF activates the new capabilities using INIT_HCA. 3. the VF detects if the PPF activated the capabilities using QUERY_HCA, and if this is the case activates them for itself too. Note that the VF detects that it must be aware to the new PF behaviour using QUERY_FUNC_CAP. Steps 1 and 2 apply also for native mode. User space notification is done through a new field introduced in struct mlx4_ib_ucontext which holds device capabilities for which user space must take action. This changes the binary interface so the ABI towards libmlx4 exposed through uverbs is bumped from 3 to 4 but only when **needed** i.e. only when the driver does use 64-byte CQEs or future device capabilities which must be in sync by user space. This practice allows to work with unmodified libmlx4 on older devices (e.g A0, B0) which don't support 64-byte CQEs. In order to keep existing systems functional when they update to a newer kernel that contains these changes in VF and userspace ABI, a module parameter enable_64b_cqe_eqe must be set to enable 64-byte mode; the default is currently false.

mlx4 currently uses a too high tx coalescing setting, deferring TX completion interrupts by up to 128 us. With the recent skb_orphan() removal in commit 8112ec3b872, performance of a single TCP flow is capped to ~4 Gbps, unless we increase tcp_limit_output_bytes. I suggest using 16 us instead of 128 us, allowing a finer control. Performance of a single TCP flow is restored to previous levels, while keeping TCP small queues fully enabled with default sysctl.

2012-07-19mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughputThadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine. One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver. This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we start the refill. We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were allocated. This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.

2012-07-19net/mlx4_en: Add accelerated RFS supportAmir Vadai
Use RFS infrastructure and flow steering in HW to keep CPU affinity of rx interrupts and application per TCP stream. A flow steering filter is added to the HW whenever the RFS ndo callback is invoked by core networking code. Because the invocation takes place in interrupt context, the actual setup of HW is done using workqueue. Whenever new filter is added, the driver checks for expiry of existing filters. Since there's window in time between the point where the core RFS code invoked the ndo callback, to the point where the HW is configured from the workqueue context, the 2nd, 3rd etc packets from that stream will cause the net core to invoke the callback again and again. To prevent inefficient/double configuration of the HW, the filters are kept in a database which is indexed using hash function to enable fast access.

2012-07-07net/mlx4_en: Add support for drop action through ethtoolHadar Hen Zion
The drop action is implemented by allocating a QP and keeping it in a reset state such that the HW drops any packets which are steered to that QP. When a drop action is requested, we attach the relevant flow to that QP. Sign-off-by: Hadar Hen Zion <hadarh@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-07-07{NET, IB}/mlx4: Add device managed flow steering firmware APIHadar Hen Zion
The driver is modified to support three operation modes. If supported by firmware use the device managed flow steering API, that which we call device managed steering mode. Else, if the firmware supports the B0 steering mode use it, and finally, if none of the above, use the A0 steering mode. When the steering mode is device managed, the code is modified such that L2 based rules set by the mlx4_en driver for Ethernet unicast and multicast, and the IB stack multicast attach calls done through the mlx4_ib driver are all routed to use the device managed API. When attaching rule using device managed flow steering API, the firmware returns a 64 bit registration id, which is to be provided during detach. Currently the firmware is always programmed during HCA initialization to use standard L2 hashing. Future work should be done to allow configuring the flow-steering hash function with common, non proprietary means.

2012-07-07net/mlx4_en: Re-design multicast attachments flowYevgeny Petrilin
Currently, for every change in the net device multicast list, the driver detaches all the addresses from the HW device, and then attaches the updated list. This behavior is wrong from two aspects: first, it causes a load of firmware commands and second, there is period of time where the correct addresses are not attached, which turned into packet loss. To improve - a copy of the multicast list is saved by the driver. For every change in the multicast list, the multicast list copy is used to find the delta between those two lists and add or remove multicast addresses as needed.

2012-05-17net/mlx4_en: num cores tx rings for every UPAmir Vadai
Change the TX ring scheme such that the number of rings for untagged packets and for tagged packets (per each of the vlan priorities) is the same, unlike the current situation where for tagged traffic there's one ring per priority and for untagged rings as the number of core. Queue selection is done as follows: If the mqprio qdisc is operates on the interface, such that the core networking code invoked the device setup_tc ndo callback, a mapping of skb->priority => queue set is forced - for both, tagged and untagged traffic. Else, the egress map skb->priority => User priority is used for tagged traffic, and all untagged traffic is sent through tx rings of UP 0. The patch follows the convergence of discussing that issue with John Fastabend over this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/229877 Cc: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Cc: Liran Liss <liranl@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-04-23mlx4_en: Moving to Interrupts for TX completionsYevgeny Petrilin
Moving to interrupts instead of polling fpr TX completions Avoiding situations where skb can be held in by the driver for a long time (till timer expires). The change is also necessary for supporting BQL. Removing comp_lock that was required because we could handle TX completions from several contexts: Interrupts, timer, polling.

2012-04-05net/mlx4_en: Force user priority by QP attributeAmir Vadai
Instead of relying on HW to change schedule queue by UP, schedule queue is fixed for a tx_ring, and UP in WQE is ignored in this aspect. This resolves two issues with untagged traffic: 1. untagged traffic has no UP in packet which is needed for QoS. The change above allows setting the schedule queue (and by that the UP) of such a stream. 2. BlueFlame uses the same field used by vlan tag. So forcing UP from QPC allows using BF for untagged but prioritized traffic. In old firmware that force UP is not supported, untagged traffic will not subject to QoS. Because UP is set by QP, need to always have a tx ring per UP, even if pfcrx module paramter is false. Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amirv@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
