* ibmveth: Convert multicast list size for little-endian systemThomas Falcon2019-08-141-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The ibm,mac-address-filters property defines the maximum number of addresses the hypervisor's multicast filter list can support. It is encoded as a big-endian integer in the OF device tree, but the virtual ethernet driver does not convert it for use by little-endian systems. As a result, the driver is not behaving as it should on affected systems when a large number of multicast addresses are assigned to the device.

* ibmveth: fix DMA unmap error in ibmveth_xmit_start error pathTyrel Datwyler2019-01-011-1/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 33a48ab105a7 ("ibmveth: Fix DMA unmap error") fixed an issue in the normal code path of ibmveth_xmit_start() that was originally introduced by Commit 6e8ab30ec677 ("ibmveth: Add scatter-gather support"). This original fix missed the error path where dma_unmap_page is wrongly called on the header portion in descs[0] which was mapped with dma_map_single. As a result a failure to DMA map any of the frags results in a dmesg warning when CONFIG_DMA_API_DEBUG is enabled. ------------[ cut here ]------------ DMA-API: ibmveth 30000002: device driver frees DMA memory with wrong function [device address=0x000000000a430000] [size=172 bytes] [mapped as page] [unmapped as single] WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 8426 at kernel/dma/debug.c:1085 check_unmap+0x4fc/0xe10 ... <snip> ...

This patch replaces cases of: kmalloc(a * b, gfp) with: kmalloc_array(a * b, gfp) as well as handling cases of: kmalloc(a * b * c, gfp) with: kmalloc(array3_size(a, b, c), gfp) as it's slightly less ugly than: kmalloc_array(array_size(a, b), c, gfp) This does, however, attempt to ignore constant size factors like: kmalloc(4 * 1024, gfp) though any constants defined via macros get caught up in the conversion. Any factors with a sizeof() of "unsigned char", "char", and "u8" were dropped, since they're redundant. The tools/ directory was manually excluded, since it has its own implementation of kmalloc().

* | ibmveth: Support to enable LSO/CSO for Trunk VEA.Sivakumar Krishnasamy2017-05-211-18/+89

One of our requirements is to have ibmveth driver configured in "Trunk" mode, when they are used with OVS. This is because, PowerVM Hypervisor will no more bridge the packets between VMs, instead the packets are delivered to IO Server which hosts OVS to bridge them between VMs or to external networks (flow shown below), VM A <=> PowerVM Hypervisor <=> IO Server(OVS) <=> PowerVM Hypervisor <=> VM B In "IO server" the packet is received by inbound Trunk ibmveth and then delivered to OVS, which is then bridged to outbound Trunk ibmveth (shown below), Inbound Trunk ibmveth <=> OVS <=> Outbound Trunk ibmveth In this model, we hit the following issues which impacted the VM communication performance, - Issue 1: ibmveth doesn't support largesend and checksum offload features when configured as "Trunk". Driver has explicit checks to prevent enabling these offloads. - Issue 2: SYN packet drops seen at destination VM. When the packet originates, it has CHECKSUM_PARTIAL flag set and as it gets delivered to IO server's inbound Trunk ibmveth, on validating "checksum good" bits in ibmveth receive routine, SKB's ip_summed field is set with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY flag. This packet is then bridged by OVS (or Linux Bridge) and delivered to outbound Trunk ibmveth. At this point the outbound ibmveth transmit routine will not set "no checksum" and "checksum good" bits in transmit buffer descriptor, as it does so only when the ip_summed field is CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. When this packet gets delivered to destination VM, TCP layer receives the packet with checksum value of 0 and with no checksum related flags in ip_summed field. This leads to packet drops. So, TCP connections never goes through fine. - Issue 3: First packet of a TCP connection will be dropped, if there is no OVS flow cached in datapath. OVS while trying to identify the flow, computes the checksum. The computed checksum will be invalid at the receiving end, as ibmveth transmit routine zeroes out the pseudo checksum value in the packet. This leads to packet drop. - Issue 4: ibmveth driver doesn't have support for SKB's with frag_list. When Physical NIC has GRO enabled and when OVS bridges these packets, OVS vport send code will end up calling dev_queue_xmit, which in turn calls validate_xmit_skb. In validate_xmit_skb routine, the larger packets will get segmented into MSS sized segments, if SKB has a frag_list and if the driver to which they are delivered to doesn't support NETIF_F_FRAGLIST feature. This patch addresses the above four issues, thereby enabling end to end largesend and checksum offload support for better performance. - Fix for Issue 1 : Remove checks which prevent enabling TCP largesend and checksum offloads. - Fix for Issue 2 : When ibmveth receives a packet with "checksum good" bit set and if its configured in Trunk mode, set appropriate SKB fields using skb_partial_csum_set (ip_summed field is set with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL) - Fix for Issue 3: Recompute the pseudo header checksum before sending the SKB up the stack. - Fix for Issue 4: Linearize the SKBs with frag_list. Though we end up allocating buffers and copying data, this fix gives upto 4X throughput increase. Note: All these fixes need to be dropped together as fixing just one of them will lead to other issues immediately (especially for Issues 1,2 & 3).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When using the ibmveth driver in a KVM/QEMU based VM, it currently always prints out a scary error message like this when it is started: ibmveth 71000003 (unregistered net_device): unable to change checksum offload settings. 1 rc=-2 ret_attr=71000003 This happens because the driver always tries to enable the checksum offloading without checking for the availability of this feature first. QEMU does not support checksum offloading for the spapr-vlan device, thus we always get the error message here. According to the LoPAPR specification, the "ibm,illan-options" property of the corresponding device tree node should be checked first to see whether the H_ILLAN_ATTRIUBTES hypercall and thus the checksum offloading feature is available. Thus let's do this in the ibmveth driver, too, so that the error message is really only limited to cases where something goes wrong, and does not occur if the feature is just missing.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is based on an earlier one submitted by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message: "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly. We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large, it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer was completely empty." We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS. Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer. This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

* ibmveth: Fix off-by-one error in ibmveth_change_mtu()David Gibson2015-04-231-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | AFAIK the PAPR document which defines the virtual device interface used by the ibmveth driver doesn't specify a specific maximum MTU. So, in the ibmveth driver, the maximum allowed MTU is determined by the maximum allocated buffer size of 64k (corresponding to one page in the common case) minus the per-buffer overhead IBMVETH_BUFF_OH (which has value 22 for 14 bytes of ethernet header, plus 8 bytes for an opaque handle). This suggests a maximum allowable MTU of 65514 bytes, but in fact the driver only permits a maximum MTU of 65513. This is because there is a < instead of an <= in ibmveth_change_mtu(), which only permits an MTU which is strictly smaller than the buffer size, rather than allowing the buffer to be completely filled.

* ibmveth: Fix alignment of rx queue bugSantiago Leon2012-09-051-17/+9Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a bug found by Nish Aravamudan (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/15/220) where the driver is not following the spec (it is not aligning the rx buffer on a 16-byte boundary) and the hypervisor aborts the registration, making the device unusable. The fix follows BenH's recommendation (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/7/20/461) to replace the kmalloc+map for a single call to dma_alloc_coherent() because that function always aligns to a 16-byte boundary. The stable trees will run into this bug whenever the rx buffer kmalloc call returns something not aligned on a 16-byte boundary.
