Michael Walle says: ==================== of: net: support non-platform devices in of_get_mac_address() of_get_mac_address() is commonly used to fetch the MAC address from the device tree. It also supports reading it from a NVMEM provider. But the latter is only possible for platform devices, because only platform devices are searched for a matching device node. Add a second method to fetch the NVMEM cell by a device tree node instead of a "struct device". Moreover, the NVMEM subsystem will return dynamically allocated data which has to be freed after use. Currently, this is handled by allocating a device resource manged buffer to store the MAC address. of_get_mac_address() then returns a pointer to this buffer. Without a device, this trick is not possible anymore. Thus, change the of_get_mac_address() API to have the caller supply a buffer. It was considered to use the network device to attach the buffer to, but then the order matters and netdev_register() has to be called before of_get_mac_address(). No driver does it this way. ==================== Signed-off-by:

of_get_mac_address() already supports fetching the MAC address by an nvmem provider. But until now, it was just working for platform devices. Esp. it was not working for DSA ports and PCI devices. It gets more common that PCI devices have a device tree binding since SoCs contain integrated root complexes. Use the nvmem of_* binding to fetch the nvmem cells by a struct device_node. We still have to try to read the cell by device first because there might be a nvmem_cell_lookup associated with that device. Signed-off-by:

of_get_mac_address() returns a "const void*" pointer to a MAC address. Lately, support to fetch the MAC address by an NVMEM provider was added. But this will only work with platform devices. It will not work with PCI devices (e.g. of an integrated root complex) and esp. not with DSA ports. There is an of_* variant of the nvmem binding which works without devices. The returned data of a nvmem_cell_read() has to be freed after use. On the other hand the return of_get_mac_address() points to some static data without a lifetime. The trick for now, was to allocate a device resource managed buffer which is then returned. This will only work if we have an actual device. Change it, so that the caller of of_get_mac_address() has to supply a buffer where the MAC address is written to. Unfortunately, this will touch all drivers which use the of_get_mac_address(). Usually the code looks like: const char *addr; addr = of_get_mac_address(np); if (!IS_ERR(addr)) ether_addr_copy(ndev->dev_addr, addr); This can then be simply rewritten as: of_get_mac_address(np, ndev->dev_addr); Sometimes is_valid_ether_addr() is used to test the MAC address. of_get_mac_address() already makes sure, it just returns a valid MAC address. Thus we can just test its return code. But we have to be careful if there are still other sources for the MAC address before the of_get_mac_address(). In this case we have to keep the is_valid_ether_addr() call. The following coccinelle patch was used to convert common cases to the new style. Afterwards, I've manually gone over the drivers and fixed the return code variable: either used a new one or if one was already available use that. Mansour Moufid, thanks for that coccinelle patch! <spml> @a@ identifier x; expression y, z; @@ - x = of_get_mac_address(y); + x = of_get_mac_address(y, z); <... - ether_addr_copy(z, x); ...> @@ identifier a.x; @@ - if (<+... x ...+>) {} @@ identifier a.x; @@ if (<+... x ...+>) { ... } - else {} @@ identifier a.x; expression e; @@ - if (<+... x ...+>@e) - {} - else + if (!(e)) {...} @@ expression x, y, z; @@ - x = of_get_mac_address(y, z); + of_get_mac_address(y, z); ... when != x </spml> All drivers, except drivers/net/ethernet/aeroflex/greth.c, were compile-time tested.

Jonathon Reinhart says: ==================== Ensuring net sysctl isolation This patchset is the result of an audit of /proc/sys/net to prove that it is safe to be mouted read-write in a container when a net namespace is in use. See [1]. The first commit adds code to detect sysctls which are not netns-safe, and can "leak" changes to other net namespaces. My manual audit found, and the above feature confirmed, that there are two nf_conntrack sysctls which are in fact not netns-safe. I considered sending the latter to netfilter-devel, but I think it's better to have both together on net-next: Adding only the former causes undesirable warnings in the kernel log.

These sysctls point to global variables: - NF_SYSCTL_CT_MAX (&nf_conntrack_max) - NF_SYSCTL_CT_EXPECT_MAX (&nf_ct_expect_max) - NF_SYSCTL_CT_BUCKETS (&nf_conntrack_htable_size_user) Because their data pointers are not updated to point to per-netns structures, they must be marked read-only in a non-init_net ns. Otherwise, changes in any net namespace are reflected in (leaked into) all other net namespaces. This problem has existed since the introduction of net namespaces. The current logic marks them read-only only if the net namespace is owned by an unprivileged user (other than init_user_ns). Commit d0febd81 ("netfilter: conntrack: re-visit sysctls in unprivileged namespaces") "exposes all sysctls even if the namespace is unpriviliged." Since we need to mark them readonly in any case, we can forego the unprivileged user check altogether.

This adds an ensure_safe_net_sysctl() check during register_net_sysctl() to validate that sysctl table entries for a non-init_net netns are sufficiently isolated. To be netns-safe, an entry must adhere to at least (and usually exactly) one of these rules: 1. It is marked read-only inside the netns. 2. Its data pointer does not point to kernel/module global data. An entry which fails both of these checks is indicative of a bug, whereby a child netns can affect global net sysctl values. If such an entry is found, this code will issue a warning to the kernel log, and force the entry to be read-only to prevent a leak. To test, simply create a new netns: $ sudo ip netns add dummy As it sits now, this patch will WARN for two sysctls which will be addressed in a subsequent patch: - /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_max - /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_expect_max Signed-off-by:

Paolo Abeni says: ==================== veth: allow GRO even without XDP This series allows the user-space to enable GRO/NAPI on a veth device even without attaching an XDP program. It does not change the default veth behavior (no NAPI, no GRO), except that the GRO feature bit on top of this series will be effectively off by default on veth devices. Note that currently the GRO bit is on by default, but GRO never takes place in absence of XDP. On top of this series, setting the GRO feature bit enables NAPI and allows the GRO to take place. The TSO features on the peer device are preserved. The main goal is improving UDP forwarding performances for containers in a typical virtual network setup: (container) veth -> veth peer -> bridge/ovs -> vxlan -> NIC Enabling the NAPI threaded mode, GRO the NETIF_F_GRO_UDP_FWD feature on the veth peer improves the UDP stream performance with not void netfilter configuration by 2x factor with no measurable overhead for TCP traffic: some heuristic ensures that TCP will not go through the additional NAPI/GRO layer. Some self-tests are added to check the expected behavior in the default configuration, with XDP and with plain GRO enabled. ==================== Signed-off-by:

Currently the veth device has the GRO feature bit set, even if no GRO aggregation is possible with the default configuration, as the veth device does not hook into the GRO engine. Flipping the GRO feature bit from user-space is a no-op, unless XDP is enabled. In such scenario GRO could actually take place, but TSO is forced to off on the peer device. This change allow user-space to really control the GRO feature, with no need for an XDP program. The GRO feature bit is now cleared by default - so that there are no user-visible behavior changes with the default configuration. When the GRO bit is set, the per-queue NAPI instances are initialized and registered. On xmit, when napi instances are available, we try to use them. Some additional checks are in place to ensure we initialize/delete NAPIs only when needed in case of overlapping XDP and GRO configuration changes. Signed-off-by:

Moshe Shemesh says: ==================== ethtool: Extend module EEPROM dump API Ethtool supports module EEPROM dumps via the `ethtool -m <dev>` command. But in current state its functionality is limited - offset and length parameters, which are used to specify a linear desired region of EEPROM data to dump, is not enough, considering emergence of complex module EEPROM layouts such as CMIS 4.0. Moreover, CMIS 4.0 extends the amount of pages that may be accessible by introducing another parameter for page addressing - banks. Besides, currently module EEPROM is represented as a chunk of concatenated pages, where lower 128 bytes of all pages, except page 00h, are omitted. Offset and length are used to address parts of this fake linear memory. But in practice drivers, which implement get_module_info() and get_module_eeprom() ethtool ops still calculate page number and set I2C address on their own. This series tackles these issues by adding ethtool op, which allows to pass page number, bank number and I2C address in addition to offset and length parameters to the driver, adds corresponding netlink infrastructure and implements the new interface in mlx5 driver. This allows to extend userspace 'ethtool -m' CLI by adding new parameters - page, bank and i2c. New command line format: ethtool -m <dev> [hex on|off] [raw on|off] [offset N] [length N] [page N] [bank N] [i2c N] The consequence of this series is a possibility to dump arbitrary EEPROM page at a time, in contrast to dumps of concatenated pages. Therefore, offset and length change their semantics and may be used only to specify a part of data within half page boundary, which size is currently limited to 128 bytes. As for drivers that support legacy get_module_info() and get_module_eeprom() pair, the series addresses it by implementing a fallback mechanism. As mentioned earlier, such drivers derive a page number from 'global' offset, so this can be done vice versa without their involvement thanks to standardization. If kernel netlink handler of 'ethtool -m' command detects that new ethtool op is not supported by the driver, it calculates offset from given page number and page offset and calls old ndos, if they are available. ==================== \Signed-off-by:
