      tc: Add support for configuring the taprio scheduler · 5a781ccb
      Vinicius Costa Gomes authored
      
      
      This traffic scheduler allows traffic classes states (transmission
      allowed/not allowed, in the simplest case) to be scheduled, according
      to a pre-generated time sequence. This is the basis of the IEEE
      802.1Qbv specification.
      
      Example configuration:
      
      tc qdisc replace dev enp3s0 parent root handle 100 taprio \
                num_tc 3 \
      	  map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
      	  queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 \
      	  base-time 1528743495910289987 \
      	  sched-entry S 01 300000 \
      	  sched-entry S 02 300000 \
      	  sched-entry S 04 300000 \
      	  clockid CLOCK_TAI
      
      The configuration format is similar to mqprio. The main difference is
      the presence of a schedule, built by multiple "sched-entry"
      definitions, each entry has the following format:
      
           sched-entry <CMD> <GATE MASK> <INTERVAL>
      
      The only supported <CMD> is "S", which means "SetGateStates",
      following the IEEE 802.1Qbv-2015 definition (Table 8-6). <GATE MASK>
      is a bitmask where each bit is a associated with a traffic class, so
      bit 0 (the least significant bit) being "on" means that traffic class
      0 is "active" for that schedule entry. <INTERVAL> is a time duration
      in nanoseconds that specifies for how long that state defined by <CMD>
      and <GATE MASK> should be held before moving to the next entry.
      
      This schedule is circular, that is, after the last entry is executed
      it starts from the first one, indefinitely.
      
      The other parameters can be defined as follows:
      
       - base-time: specifies the instant when the schedule starts, if
        'base-time' is a time in the past, the schedule will start at
      
       	      base-time + (N * cycle-time)
      
         where N is the smallest integer so the resulting time is greater
         than "now", and "cycle-time" is the sum of all the intervals of the
         entries in the schedule;
      
       - clockid: specifies the reference clock to be used;
      
      The parameters should be similar to what the IEEE 802.1Q family of
      specification defines.

      ====================
      bnxt_en: devlink param updates
      
      This patchset adds support for 3 generic and 1 driver-specific devlink
      parameters. Add documentation for these configuration parameters.
      
      Also, this patchset adds support to return proper error code if
      HWRM_NVM_GET/SET_VARIABLE commands return error code
      HWRM_ERR_CODE_RESOURCE_ACCESS_DENIED.
      
      v3->v4:
      -Remove extra definition of NVM_OFF_HW_TC_OFFLOAD from bnxt_devlink.h
      -Remove type information for generic parameters from
      devlink-params-bnxt.txt
      
      v2->v3:
      -Remove description of generic parameters from devlink-params-bnxt.txt

      qed: Avoid implicit enum conversion in qed_ooo_submit_tx_buffers · 8fa74e3c

      Fix this by using a switch statement to convert between the enumerated

      driver handles this conversion.

      ====================
      mlx5-updates-2018-10-03
      
      mlx5 core driver and ethernet netdev updates, please note there is a small
      devlink releated update to allow extack argument to eswitch operations.
      
      From Eli Britstein,
      1) devlink: Add extack argument to the eswitch related operations
      2) net/mlx5e: E-Switch, return extack messages for failures in the e-switch devlink callbacks
      3) net/mlx5e: Add extack messages for TC offload failures
      
      From Eran Ben Elisha,
      4) mlx5e: Add counter for aRFS rule insertion failures
      
      From Feras Daoud
      5) Fast teardown support for mlx5 device
      This change introduces the enhanced version of the "Force teardown" that
      allows SW to perform teardown in a faster way without the need to reclaim
      all the FW pages.
      Fast teardown provides the following advantages:
          1- Fix a FW race condition that could cause command timeout
          2- Avoid moving to polling mode
          3- Close the vport to prevent PCI ACK to be sent without been scatter
          to memory

      ====================
      rxrpc: Development
      
      Here are some development patches for AF_RXRPC.  The most significant points
      are:
      
       (1) Change the tracepoint that indicates a packet has been transmitted
           into one that indicates a packet is about to be transmitted.  Without
           this, the response tracepoint may occur first if the round trip is
           fast enough.
      
       (2) Sort out AFS address list handling to better enforce maximum capacity
           to use helper functions to fill them and to do an insertion sort to
           order them.  This is here to make (3) easier.
      
       (3) Keep AF_INET addresses as AF_INET addresses rather than converting
           them to AF_INET6 in both AF_RXRPC and kAFS.  I hadn't realised that a
           UDP6 socket would just call down into UDP4 if given an AF_INET
           address.
      
       (4) Allow the timestamp on the first DATA packet of a reply to be
           retrieved by a kernel service.  This will give the kAFS a more
           accurate base from which to calculate the callback promise expiration.
      
       (5) Allow the rxrpc protocol epoch value to be retrieved from an incoming
           call.  This will allow kAFS to determine if the fileserver restarted
           and if two addresses apparently assigned to the same fileserver
           actually are different boxes.

      dns: Allow the dns resolver to retrieve a server set · bbb4c432
      David Howells authored
      
      
      Allow the DNS resolver to retrieve a set of servers and their associated
      addresses, ports, preference and weight ratings.
      
      In terms of communication with userspace, "srv=1" is added to the callout
      string (the '1' indicating the maximum data version supported by the
      kernel) to ask the userspace side for this.
      
      If the userspace side doesn't recognise it, it will ignore the option and
      return the usual text address list.
      
      If the userspace side does recognise it, it will return some binary data
      that begins with a zero byte that would cause the string parsers to give an
      error.  The second byte contains the version of the data in the blob (this
      may be between 1 and the version specified in the callout data).  The
      remainder of the payload is version-specific.
      
      In version 1, the payload looks like (note that this is packed):
      
      	u8	Non-string marker (ie. 0)
      	u8	Content (0 => Server list)
      	u8	Version (ie. 1)
      	u8	Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_DNS_SRV)
      	u8	Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOOD)
      	u8	Number of servers
      	foreach-server {
      		u16	Name length (LE)
      		u16	Priority (as per SRV record) (LE)
      		u16	Weight (as per SRV record) (LE)
      		u16	Port (LE)
      		u8	Source (eg. DNS_RECORD_FROM_NSS)
      		u8	Status (eg. DNS_LOOKUP_GOT_NOT_FOUND)
      		u8	Protocol (eg. DNS_SERVER_PROTOCOL_UDP)
      		u8	Number of addresses
      		char[]	Name (not NUL-terminated)
      		foreach-address {
      			u8		Family (AF_INET{,6})
      			union {
      				u8[4]	ipv4_addr
      				u8[16]	ipv6_addr
      			}
      		}
      	}
      
      This can then be used to fetch a whole cell's VL-server configuration for
      AFS, for example.
