Florian Westphal says:
====================
netfilter: updates for net-next
1-3) IPVS updates from Julian Anastasov to enhance visibility into
IPVS internal state by exposing hash size, load factor etc and
allows userspace to tune the load factor used for resizing hash
tables.
4) reject empty/not nul terminated device names from xt_physdev.
This isn't a bug fix; existing code doesn't require a c-string.
But clean this up anyway because conceptually the interface name
definitely should be a c-string.
5) Switch nfnetlink to skb_mac_header helpers that didn't exist back
when this code was written. This gives us additional debug checks
but is not intended to change functionality.
6) Let the xt ttl/hoplimit match reject unknown operator modes.
This is a cleanup, the evaluation function simply returns false when
the mode is out of range. From Marino Dzalto.
7) xt_socket match should enable defrag after all other checks. This
bug is harmless, historically defrag could not be disabled either
except by rmmod.
8) remove UDP-Lite conntrack support, from Fernando Fernandez Mancera.
9) Avoid a couple -Wflex-array-member-not-at-end warnings in the old
xtables 32bit compat code, from Gustavo A. R. Silva.
10) nftables fwd expression should drop packets when their ttl/hl has
expired. This is a bug fix deferred, its not deemed important
enough for -rc8.
11) Add additional checks before assuming the mac header is an ethernet
header, from Zhengchuan Liang.

Implement netdev_nl_queue_create_doit which creates a new rx queue in a
virtual netdev and then leases it to a rx queue in a physical netdev.
Example with ynl client:
# ynl --family netdev --output-json --do queue-create \
--json '{"ifindex": 8, "type": "rx", "lease": {"ifindex": 4, "queue": {"type": "rx", "id": 15}}}'
{'id': 1}
Note that the netdevice locking order is always from the virtual to
the physical device.

By default, the Linux TCP implementation does not shrink the
advertised window (RFC 7323 calls this "window retraction") with the
following exceptions:
- When an incoming segment cannot be added due to the receive buffer
running out of memory. Since commit 8c670bdfa58e ("tcp: correct
handling of extreme memory squeeze") a zero window will be
advertised in this case. It turns out that reaching the required
memory pressure is easy when window scaling is in use. In the
simplest case, sending a sufficient number of segments smaller than
the scale factor to a receiver that does not read data is enough.
- Commit b650d953cd39 ("tcp: enforce receive buffer memory limits by
allowing the tcp window to shrink") addressed the "eating memory"
problem by introducing a sysctl knob that allows shrinking the
window before running out of memory.
However, RFC 7323 does not only state that shrinking the window is
necessary in some cases, it also formulates requirements for TCP
implementations when doing so (Section 2.4).
This commit addresses the receiver-side requirements: After retracting
the window, the peer may have a snd_nxt that lies within a previously
advertised window but is now beyond the retracted window. This means
that all incoming segments (including pure ACKs) will be rejected
until the application happens to read enough data to let the peer's
snd_nxt be in window again (which may be never).
To comply with RFC 7323, the receiver MUST honor any segment that
would have been in window for any ACK sent by the receiver and, when
window scaling is in effect, SHOULD track the maximum window sequence
number it has advertised. This patch tracks that maximum window
sequence number rcv_mwnd_seq throughout the connection and uses it in
tcp_sequence() when deciding whether a segment is acceptable.
rcv_mwnd_seq is updated together with rcv_wup and rcv_wnd in
tcp_select_window(). If we count tcp_sequence() as fast path, it is
read in the fast path. Therefore, rcv_mwnd_seq is put into rcv_wnd's
cacheline group.
The logic for handling received data in tcp_data_queue() is already
sufficient and does not need to be updated.

With the current port selection algorithm, ports after a reserved port
range or long time used port are used more often than others [1]. This
causes an uneven port usage distribution. This combines with cloud
environments blocking connections between the application server and the
database server if there was a previous connection with the same source
port, leading to connectivity problems between applications on cloud
environments.
The real issue here is that these firewalls cannot cope with
standards-compliant port reuse. This is a workaround for such situations
and an improvement on the distribution of ports selected.
The proposed solution is to implement a variant of RFC 6056 Algorithm 5.
The step size is selected randomly on every connect() call ensuring it
is a coprime with respect to the size of the range of ports we want to
scan. This way, we can ensure that all ports within the range are
scanned before returning an error. To enable this algorithm, the user
must configure the new sysctl option "net.ipv4.ip_local_port_step_width".
In addition, on graphs generated we can observe that the distribution of
source ports is more even with the proposed approach. [2]

Instead of storing the @mask at the beginning of rps_sock_flow_table,
use 5 low order bits of the rps_tag_ptr to store the log of the size.
This removes a potential cache line miss to fetch @mask.
More importantly, we can switch to vmalloc_huge() without wasting memory.

These sysctls were added in 4cdf507d5452 ("icmp: add a global rate
limitation") and their default values might be too small.
Some network tools send probes to closed UDP ports from many hosts
to estimate proportion of packet drops on a particular target.
This patch sets both sysctls to 10000.
Note the per-peer rate-limit (as described in RFC 4443 2.4 (f))
intent is still enforced.
This also increases security, see b38e7819cae9

/* Give more bandwidth to wider prefixes. */
if (rt->rt6i_dst.plen < 128)
tmo >>= ((128 - rt->rt6i_dst.plen)>>5);
Now inet_getpeer_v6() retrieves hosts, we need to remove
@tmo adjustement or wider prefixes likes /24 allow 8x
more ICMP to be sent for a given ratelimit.
As we had this issue for a while, this patch changes net.ipv6.icmp.ratelimit
default value from 1000ms to 100ms to avoid potential regressions.
Also add a READ_ONCE() when reading net->ipv6.sysctl.icmpv6_time.

Pull networking updates from Paolo Abeni:
"Core & protocols:
- A significant effort all around the stack to guide the compiler to
make the right choice when inlining code, to avoid unneeded calls
for small helper and stack canary overhead in the fast-path.
This generates better and faster code with very small or no text
size increases, as in many cases the call generated more code than
the actual inlined helper.
- Extend AccECN implementation so that is now functionally complete,
also allow the user-space enabling it on a per network namespace
basis.
- Add support for memory providers with large (above 4K) rx buffer.
Paired with hw-gro, larger rx buffer sizes reduce the number of
buffers traversing the stack, dincreasing single stream CPU usage
by up to ~30%.
- Do not add HBH header to Big TCP GSO packets. This simplifies the
RX path, the TX path and the NIC drivers, and is possible because
user-space taps can now interpret correctly such packets without
the HBH hint.
- Allow IPv6 routes to be configured with a gateway address that is
resolved out of a different interface than the one specified,
aligning IPv6 to IPv4 behavior.
- Multi-queue aware sch_cake. This makes it possible to scale the
rate shaper of sch_cake across multiple CPUs, while still enforcing
a single global rate on the interface.
- Add support for the nbcon (new buffer console) infrastructure to
netconsole, enabling lock-free, priority-based console operations
that are safer in crash scenarios.
- Improve the TCP ipv6 output path to cache the flow information,
saving cpu cycles, reducing cache line misses and stack use.
- Improve netfilter packet tracker to resolve clashes for most
protocols, avoiding unneeded drops on rare occasions.
- Add IP6IP6 tunneling acceleration to the flowtable infrastructure.
- Reduce tcp socket size by one cache line.
- Notify neighbour changes atomically, avoiding inconsistencies
between the notification sequence and the actual states sequence.
- Add vsock namespace support, allowing complete isolation of vsocks
across different network namespaces.
- Improve xsk generic performances with cache-alignment-oriented
optimizations.
- Support netconsole automatic target recovery, allowing netconsole
to reestablish targets when underlying low-level interface comes
back online.
Driver API:
- Support for switching the working mode (automatic vs manual) of a
DPLL device via netlink.
- Introduce PHY ports representation to expose multiple front-facing
media ports over a single MAC.
- Introduce "rx-polarity" and "tx-polarity" device tree properties,
to generalize polarity inversion requirements for differential
signaling.
- Add helper to create, prepare and enable managed clocks.
Device drivers:
- Add Huawei hinic3 PF etherner driver.
- Add DWMAC glue driver for Motorcomm YT6801 PCIe ethernet
controller.
- Add ethernet driver for MaxLinear MxL862xx switches
- Remove parallel-port Ethernet driver.
- Convert existing driver timestamp configuration reporting to
hwtstamp_get and remove legacy ioctl().
- Convert existing drivers to .get_rx_ring_count(), simplifing the RX
ring count retrieval. Also remove the legacy fallback path.

Detect spurious retransmission of a previously sent ACK carrying the
AccECN option after the second retransmission. Since this might be caused
by the middlebox dropping ACK with options it does not recognize, disable
the sending of the AccECN option in all subsequent ACKs. This patch
follows Section 3.2.3.2.2 of AccECN spec (RFC9768), and a new field
(accecn_opt_sent_w_dsack) is added to indicate that an AccECN option was
sent with duplicate SACK info.
Also, a new AccECN option sending mode is added to tcp_ecn_option sysctl:
(TCP_ECN_OPTION_PERSIST), which ignores the AccECN fallback policy and
persistently sends AccECN option once it fits into TCP option space.

The s2io driver supports Exar (formerly Neterion and S2io) PCI-X 10
Gigabit Ethernet cards. Hardware supporting PCI-X has not been
manufactured in years. On x86, it was quickly replaced by PCIe. While
it stuck around longer on POWER hardware, the last POWER hardware to
support it was POWER7, which is not supported by ppc64le Linux
distributions. The last supported mainstream ppc64 Linux distribution
was RHEL 7; while it is still supported under ELS, ELS is only
available for x86 and IBM Z. It is possible to use many PCI-X cards in
standard PCI slots (which are still available on new motherboards), but
it does not make sense to do so for 10 Gigabit Ethernet because the
maximum bandwidth of standard PCI is only 1067 Mbps. It is therefore
highly unlikely that this driver is still being used. Remove the
driver, and move the former maintainer to the CREDITS file (restoring
credit for the vxge driver, which was removed in commit f05643a0f60b
("eth: remove neterion/vxge").

The root document usually has a special :ref:`genindex` link to the
generated index. This is also the case for Documentation/index.rst. The
other index.rst files deeper in the directory hierarchy usually don't.
For SPHINXDIRS builds, the root document isn't Documentation/index.rst,
but some other index.rst in the hierarchy. Currently they have a
".. only::" block to add the index link when doing SPHINXDIRS html
builds.
This is obviously very tedious and repetitive. The link is also added to
all index.rst files in the hierarchy for SPHINXDIRS builds, not just the
root document.
Put the boilerplate in a sphinx-includes/subproject-index.rst file, and
include it at the end of the root document for subproject builds in an
ad-hoc source-read extension defined in conf.py.
For now, keep having the boilerplate in translations, because this
approach currently doesn't cover translated index link headers.

Pavel Begunkov says:
====================
Add support for providers with large rx buffer
Many modern NICs support configurable receive buffer lengths, and zcrx and
memory providers can use buffers larger than 4K to improve performance.
When paired with hw-gro larger rx buffer sizes can drastically reduce
the number of buffers traversing the stack and save a lot of processing
time. It also allows to give to users larger contiguous chunks of data.
Single stream benchmarks showed up to ~30% CPU util improvement.
E.g. comparison for 4K vs 32K buffers using a 200Gbit NIC:
packets=23987040 (MB=2745098), rps=199559 (MB/s=22837)
CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle
0 1.53 0.00 27.78 2.72 1.31 66.45 0.22
packets=24078368 (MB=2755550), rps=200319 (MB/s=22924)
CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %idle
0 0.69 0.00 8.26 31.65 1.83 57.00 0.57
This series adds net infrastructure for memory providers configuring
the size and implements it for bnxt. It's an opt-in feature for drivers,
they should advertise support for the parameter in the qops and must check
if the hardware supports the given size. It's limited to memory providers
as it drastically simplifies implementation. It doesn't affect the fast
path zcrx uAPI, and the user exposed parameter is defined in zcrx terms,
which allows it to be flexible and adjusted in the future.

Create icsk->icsk_keepalive_timer and change keepalive

Added space is reclaimed in the following patch.

swp_l4_csum_mode controls how L4 transmit checksums are computed when
using Software Parser (SWP) hints for header locations.
Supported values:
1. default: device will choose between full_csum or l4_only. Driver
will discover the device's choice during initialization.
2. full_csum: calculate L4 checksum with the pseudo-header.
3. l4_only: calculate L4 checksum without the pseudo-header. Only
available when swp_l4_csum_mode_l4_only is set in
mlx5_ifc_nv_sw_offload_cap_bits.
Note that 'default' might be returned from the device and passed to
userspace, and it might also be set during a
devlink_param::reset_default() call, but attempts to set a value of
default directly with param-set will be rejected.
The l4_only setting is a dependency for PSP initialization in
mlx5e_psp_init().

Support querying and resetting to default param values.
Introduce two new devlink netlink attrs:
DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_VALUE_DEFAULT and
DEVLINK_ATTR_PARAM_RESET_DEFAULT. The former is used to contain an
optional parameter value inside of the param_value nested
attribute. The latter is used in param-set requests from userspace to
indicate that the driver should reset the param to its default value.
To implement this, two new functions are added to the devlink driver
api: devlink_param::get_default() and
devlink_param::reset_default(). These callbacks allow drivers to
implement default param actions for runtime and permanent cmodes. For
driverinit params, the core latches the last value set by a driver via
devl_param_driverinit_value_set(), and uses that as the default value
for a param.
Because default parameter values are optional, it would be impossible
to discern whether or not a param of type bool has default value of
false or not provided if the default value is encoded using a netlink
flag type. For this reason, when a DEVLINK_PARAM_TYPE_BOOL has an
associated default value, the default value is encoded using a u8
type.

This is a follow up of commit aa251c84636c ("tcp: fix too slow
tcp_rcvbuf_grow() action") which brought again the issue that I tried
to fix in commit 65c5287892e9 ("tcp: fix sk_rcvbuf overshoot")
We also recently increased tcp_rmem[2] to 32 MB in commit 572be9bf9d0d
("tcp: increase tcp_rmem[2] to 32 MB")
Idea of this patch is to not let tcp_rcvbuf_grow() grow sk->sk_rcvbuf
too fast for small RTT flows. If sk->sk_rcvbuf is too big, this can
force NIC driver to not recycle pages from their page pool, and also
can cause cache evictions for DDIO enabled cpus/NIC, as receivers
are usually slower than senders.
Add net.ipv4.tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt sysctl, set by default to 1000 usec (1 ms)
If RTT if smaller than the sysctl value, use the RTT/tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt
ratio to control sk_rcvbuf inflation.
Tested:
Pair of hosts with a 200Gbit IDPF NIC. Using netperf/netserver
Client initiates 8 TCP bulk flows, asking netserver to use CPU #10 only.
super_netperf 8 -H server -T,10 -l 30
On server, use perf -e tcp:tcp_rcvbuf_grow while test is running.
Before:
sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_rcvbuf_low_rtt=1
perf record -a -e tcp:tcp_rcvbuf_grow sleep 30 ; perf script|tail -20|cut -c30-230

We can see sk_rcvbuf values are much smaller, and that rtt_us (estimation of rtt
from a receiver point of view) is kept small, instead of being bloated.
No difference in throughput.

sysctl_tcp_moderate_rcvbuf is only used from tcp_rcvbuf_grow().
Move it to netns_ipv4_read_rx group.
Remove various CACHELINE_ASSERT_GROUP_SIZE() from netns_ipv4_struct_check(),
as they have no real benefit but cause pain for all changes.

net.ipv4.tcp_comp_sack_slack_ns current default value is too high.
When a flow has many drops (1 % or more), and small RTT, adding 100 usec
before sending SACK stalls the sender relying on getting SACK
fast enough to keep the pipe busy.
Decrease the default to 10 usec.
This is orthogonal to Congestion Control heuristics to determine
if drops are caused by congestion or not.

XFRM docs are currently reside in Documentation/networking directory,
yet these are distinctive as a group of their own. Move them into xfrm
subdirectory.
