net: rtnetlink: Add UAPI for obtaining L3 offload xstats · 0e7788fd

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022



Add a new IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS child attribute,
IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS, to carry statistics for traffic that takes
place in a HW router.

The offloaded HW stats are designed to allow per-netdevice enablement and
disablement. Additionally, as a netdevice is configured, it may become or
cease being suitable for binding of a HW counter. Both of these aspects
need to be communicated to the userspace. To that end, add another child
attribute, IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO:

    - attr nest IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO
	- attr nest IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS
 	    - attr IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO_REQUEST
	      - {0,1} as u8
 	    - attr IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO_USED
	      - {0,1} as u8

Thus this one attribute is a nest that can be used to carry information
about various types of HW statistics, and indexing is very simply done by
wrapping the information for a given statistics suite into the attribute
that carries the suite is the RTM_GETSTATS query. At the same time, because
_HW_S_INFO is nested directly below IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS, it is
possible through filtering to request only the metadata about individual
statistics suites, without having to hit the HW to get the actual counters.

net: dev: Add hardware stats support · 9309f97a

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022



Offloading switch device drivers may be able to collect statistics of the
traffic taking place in the HW datapath that pertains to a certain soft
netdevice, such as VLAN. Add the necessary infrastructure to allow exposing
these statistics to the offloaded netdevice in question. The API was shaped
by the following considerations:

- Collection of HW statistics is not free: there may be a finite number of
  counters, and the act of counting may have a performance impact. It is
  therefore necessary to allow toggling whether HW counting should be done
  for any particular SW netdevice.

- As the drivers are loaded and removed, a particular device may get
  offloaded and unoffloaded again. At the same time, the statistics values
  need to stay monotonic (modulo the eventual 64-bit wraparound),
  increasing only to reflect traffic measured in the device.

  To that end, the netdevice keeps around a lazily-allocated copy of struct
  rtnl_link_stats64. Device drivers then contribute to the values kept
  therein at various points. Even as the driver goes away, the struct stays
  around to maintain the statistics values.

- Different HW devices may be able to count different things. The
  motivation behind this patch in particular is exposure of HW counters on
  Nvidia Spectrum switches, where the only practical approach to counting
  traffic on offloaded soft netdevices currently is to use router interface
  counters, and count L3 traffic. Correspondingly that is the statistics
  suite added in this patch.

  Other devices may be able to measure different kinds of traffic, and for
  that reason, the APIs are built to allow uniform access to different
  statistics suites.

- Because soft netdevices and offloading drivers are only loosely bound, a
  netdevice uses a notifier chain to communicate with the drivers. Several
  new notifiers, NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_*, have been added to carry messages
  to the offloading drivers.

- Devices can have various conditions for when a particular counter is
  available. As the device is configured and reconfigured, the device
  offload may become or cease being suitable for counter binding. A
  netdevice can use a notifier type NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_REPORT_USED to
  ping offloading drivers and determine whether anyone currently implements
  a given statistics suite. This information can then be propagated to user
  space.

  When the driver decides to unoffload a netdevice, it can use a
  newly-added function, netdev_offload_xstats_report_delta(), to record
  outstanding collected statistics, before destroying the HW counter.

This patch adds a helper, call_netdevice_notifiers_info_robust(), for
dispatching a notifier with the possibility of unwind when one of the
consumers bails. Given the wish to eventually get rid of the global
notifier block altogether, this helper only invokes the per-netns notifier
block.

net: rtnetlink: rtnl_fill_statsinfo(): Permit non-EMSGSIZE error returns · 216e6906

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022

Obtaining stats for the IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS nest involves a HW
access, and can fail for more reasons than just netlink message size
exhaustion. Therefore do not always return -EMSGSIZE on the failure path,
but respect the error code provided by the callee. Set the error explicitly
where it is reasonable to assume -EMSGSIZE as the failure reason.

net: rtnetlink: RTM_GETSTATS: Allow filtering inside nests · 46efc97b

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022



The filter_mask field of RTM_GETSTATS header determines which top-level
attributes should be included in the netlink response. This saves
processing time by only including the bits that the user cares about
instead of always dumping everything. This is doubly important for
HW-backed statistics that would typically require a trip to the device to
fetch the stats.

So far there was only one HW-backed stat suite per attribute. However,
IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS is a nest, and will gain a new stat suite in
the following patches. It would therefore be advantageous to be able to
filter within that nest, and select just one or the other HW-backed
statistics suite.

Extend rtnetlink so that RTM_GETSTATS permits attributes in the payload.
The scheme is as follows:

    - RTM_GETSTATS
	- struct if_stats_msg
	- attr nest IFLA_STATS_GET_FILTERS
	    - attr IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS
		- u32 filter_mask

This scheme reuses the existing enumerators by nesting them in a dedicated
context attribute. This is covered by policies as usual, therefore a
gradual opt-in is possible. Currently only IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS
nest has filtering enabled, because for the SW counters the issue does not
seem to be that important.

rtnl_offload_xstats_get_size() and _fill() are extended to observe the
requested filters.

net: rtnetlink: Stop assuming that IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_* are dev-backed · f6e0fb81

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022



The IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS attribute is a nest whose child
attributes carry various special hardware statistics. The code that handles
this nest was written with the idea that all these statistics would be
exposed by the device driver of a physical netdevice.

In the following patches, a new attribute is added to the abovementioned
nest, which however can be defined for some soft netdevices. The NDO-based
approach to querying these does not work, because it is not the soft
netdevice driver that exposes these statistics, but an offloading NIC
driver that does so.

The current code does not scale well to this usage. Simply rewrite it back
to the pattern seen in other fill-like and get_size-like functions
elsewhere.

Extract to helpers the code that is concerned with handling specifically
NDO-backed statistics so that it can be easily reused should more such
statistics be added.

Petr Machata authored Mar 02, 2022



The currently used names rtnl_get_offload_stats() and
rtnl_get_offload_stats_size() do not clearly show the namespace. The former
function additionally seems to have been named this way in accordance with
the NDO name, as opposed to the naming used in the rtnetlink.c file (and
indeed elsewhere in the netlink handling code). As more and
differently-flavored attributes are introduced, a common clear prefix is
needed for all related functions.

Rename the functions to follow the rtnl_offload_xstats_* naming scheme.

qed: validate and restrict untrusted VFs vlan promisc mode · cbcc44db

Manish Chopra authored Mar 02, 2022

Today when VFs are put in promiscuous mode, they can request PF
to configure device for them to receive all VLANs traffic regardless
of what vlan is configured by the PF (via ip link) and PF allows this
config request regardless of whether VF is trusted or not.

From security POV, when VLAN is configured for VF through PF (via ip link),
honour such config requests from VF only when they are configured to be
trusted, otherwise restrict such VFs vlan promisc mode config.

-----------------
- v1 can be seen here: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220126221725.710167-1-bhupesh.sharma@linaro.org/t/
- Fixed review comments from Bjorn - broke the v1 series into two
  separate series - one each for 'net' tree and 'arm clock/dts' tree
  - so as to ease review of the same from the respective maintainers.
- This series is intended for the 'net' tree.

The SA8155p-ADP board supports on-board ethernet (Gibabit Interface),
with support for both RGMII and RMII buses.

This patchset adds the support for the same.

Note that this patchset is based on an earlier sent patchset
for adding PDC controller support on SM8150 (see [1]).

page_pool: Add stats counters

Greetings:

Welcome to v9.

This revisions adds a commit which updates the page_pool documentation to
describe the stats API, structures, and fields.

Additionally, this revision contains a minor cosmetic change suggested by
Saeed in page_pool_recycle_in_ring in commit 2: "page_pool: Add recycle
stats", which removes an unnecessary #ifdef.

There are no functional changes in this revision.

Benchmark output from the v7 cover [1] is pasted below, as it is still
relevant since no functional changes have been made in this revision:

Benchmarks have been re-run. As always, results between runs are highly
variable; you'll find results showing that stats disabled are both faster
and slower than stats enabled in back to back benchmark runs.

Raw benchmark output with stats off [2] and stats on [3] are available for
examination.

v8 -> v9:
	- Add documentation about the page_pool_get_stats API, stats
	  structures, and fields to Documentation/networking/page_pool.rst.
	- Remove unnecessary #ifdef in page_pool_recycle_in_ring.

v7 -> v8:
	- Rename mlx5 ethtool stats so that users have a better idea of
	  their meaning.

v6 -> v7:
	- stats split out into two structs one single per-page pool struct
	  for allocation path stats and one per-cpu pointer for recycle
	  path stats.
	- page_pool_get_stats updated to use a wrapper struct to gather
	  stats for allocation and recycle stats with a single argument.
	- placement of structs adjusted
	- mlx5 driver modified to use page_pool_get_stats API

v5 -> v6:
	- Per cpu page_pool_stats struct pointer is now marked as
	  ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp. Placement of the field in the
	  struct is unchanged; it is the last field.

v4 -> v5:
	- Fixed the description of the kernel option in Kconfig.
	- Squashed commits 1-10 from v4 into a single commit for easier
	  review.
	- Changed the comment style of the comment for
	  the this_cpu_inc_alloc_stat macro.
	- Changed the return type of page_pool_get_stats from struct
	  page_pool_stat * to bool.

v3 -> v4:
	- Restructured stats to be per-cpu per-pool.
	- Global stats and proc file were removed.
	- Exposed an API (page_pool_get_stats) for batching the pool stats.

v2 -> v3:
	- patch 8/10 ("Add stat tracking cache refill") fixed placement of
	  counter increment.
	- patch 10/10 ("net-procfs: Show page pool stats in proc") updated:
		- fix unused label warning from kernel test robot,
		- fixed page_pool_seq_show to only display the refill stat
		  once,
		- added a remove_proc_entry for page_pool_stat to
		  dev_proc_net_exit.

v1 -> v2:
	- A new kernel config option has been added, which defaults to N,
	   preventing this code from being compiled in by default
	- The stats structure has been converted to a per-cpu structure
	- The stats are now exported via proc (/proc/net/page_pool_stat)
