Commit in question breaks the mapping of PGs to pools for some SKUs.
Specifically multi-host NICs seem to be shipped with a custom buffer
configuration which maps the lossy PG to pool 4. But the bad commit
overrides this with pool 0 which does not have sufficient buffer space
reserved. Resulting in ~40% packet loss. The commit also breaks BMC /
OOB connection completely (100% packet loss).
Revert, similarly to commit 3fbfe251cc9f ("Revert "net/mlx5e: Update and
set Xon/Xoff upon port speed set""). The breakage is exactly the same,
the only difference is that quoted commit would break the NIC immediately
on boot, and the currently reverted commit only when MTU is changed.
Note: "good" kernels do not restore the configuration, so downgrade isn't
enough to recover machines. A NIC power cycle seems to be necessary to
return to a healthy state (or overriding the relevant registers using
a custom patch).

The poll interval is a fixed value, so we don't need a static variable
for it. The change also allows to use standard macro
module_platform_driver, avoiding some boilerplate code.
page_pool_init() returns E2BIG when the page_pool size goes above 32K
pages. As some drivers are configuring the page_pool size according to
the MTU and ring size, there are cases where this limit is exceeded and
the queue creation fails.
The page_pool size doesn't have to cover a full queue, especially for

this in the core to avoid having each driver do the clamping.

selftest: packetdrill: Import TFO server tests.
The series imports 15 TFO server tests from google/packetdrill and
adds 2 more tests.
The repository has two versions of tests for most scenarios; one uses
the non-experimental option (34), and the other uses the experimental
option (255) with 0xF989.
Basically, we only import the non-experimental version of tests, and
for the experimental option, tcp_fastopen_server_experimental_option.pkt
is added.
The former is completely covered by icmp-before-accept.pkt.
The later's delta is the src/dst IP pair to generate a different
cookie, but supporting dualstack requires churn in ksft_runner.sh,
so defered to future series. Also, sockopt-fastopen-key.pkt covers
the same function.
The following tests have the experimental version only, so converted
to the non-experimental option:
For the imported tests, these common changes are applied.
* Add SPDX header
* Adjust path to default.sh
* Adjust sysctl w/ set_sysctls.py
* Use TFO_COOKIE instead of a raw hex value
* Use SOCK_NONBLOCK for socket() not to block accept()
* Add assertions for TCP state if commented
* Remove unnecessary delay (e.g. +0.1 setsockopt(SO_REUSEADDR), etc)
With this series, except for simple{1,2,3}.pkt, we can remove TFO server
tests in google/packetdrill.
====================
sockopt-fastopen-key.pkt does not have the non-experimental
version, so the Experimental version is converted, FOEXP -> FO.
The test sets net.ipv4.tcp_fastopen_key=0-0-0-0 and instead
sets another key via setsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY).
The first listener generates a valid cookie in response to TFO
option without cookie, and the second listner creates a TFO socket
using the valid cookie.
TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY is adjusted to use the common key in default.sh
so that we can use TFO_COOKIE and support dualstack. Similarly,
TFO_COOKIE_ZERO for the 0-0-0-0 key is defined.
This imports the non-experimental version of opt34/reset-*.pkt.
| Child | RST | sk_err |
---------------------------------+---------+-------------------------------+---------+
reset-after-accept.pkt | TFO | after accept(), SYN_RECV | read() |
reset-close-with-unread-data.pkt | TFO | after accept(), SYN_RECV | write() |
reset-before-accept.pkt | TFO | before accept(), SYN_RECV | read() |
reset-non-tfo-socket.pkt | non-TFO | before accept(), ESTABLISHED | write() |
The first 3 files test scenarios where a SYN_RECV socket receives RST
before/after accept() and data in SYN must be read() without error,
but the following read() or fist write() will return ECONNRESET.
This imports the non-experimental version of icmp-before-accept.pkt.
This file tests the scenario where an ICMP unreachable packet for a
not-yet-accept()ed socket changes its state to TCP_CLOSE, but the
SYN data must be read without error, and the following read() returns
EHOSTUNREACH.
Note that this test support only IPv4 as icmp is used.
selftest: packetdrill: Import TFO server basic tests.
This imports basic TFO server tests from google/packetdrill.
The repository has two versions of tests for most scenarios; one uses
the non-experimental option (34), and the other uses the experimental
option (255) with 0xF989.
This only imports the following tests of the non-experimental version
placed in [0]. I will add a specific test for the experimental option
handling later.
The original pure-syn-data.pkt missed setsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN) and did
not test TFO server in some scenarios unintentionally, so setsockopt()
is added where needed. In addition, non-TFO scenario is stripped as
it is covered by basic-non-tfo-listener.pkt. Also, I added basic- prefix.
selftest: packetdrill: Define common TCP Fast Open cookie.
TCP Fast Open cookie is generated in __tcp_fastopen_cookie_gen_cipher().
The cookie value is generated from src/dst IPs and a key configured by
setsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY) or net.ipv4.tcp_fastopen_key.
The default.sh sets net.ipv4.tcp_fastopen_key, and the original packetdrill
defines the corresponding cookie as TFO_COOKIE in run_all.py. [0]
Then, each test does not need to care about the value, and we can easily
update TFO_COOKIE in case __tcp_fastopen_cookie_gen_cipher() changes the
algorithm.
However, some tests use the bare hex value for specific IPv4 addresses
and do not support IPv6.
Let's define the same TFO_COOKIE in ksft_runner.sh.
We will replace such bare hex values with TFO_COOKIE except for a single
test for setsockopt(TCP_FASTOPEN_KEY).
selftest: packetdrill: Set ktap_set_plan properly for single protocol test.

Otherwise, the selftest exit()s with 1.

issues to arise in the future.
Patches 4-7 are aimed at introducing the socket backlog usage which will
be done in a later series to process the packets received by the
different subflows while the msk socket is owned.
Patch 8 is not related to the RX path, but it contains additional tests
for new features recently introduced in net-next.
====================
Here are a few sub-tests for mptcp_join.sh, validating the new 'laminar'
endpoint type.
In a setup where subflows created using the routing rules would be
rejected by the listener, and where the latter announces one IP address,
some cases are verified:
- Without any 'laminar' endpoints: no new subflows are created.
- With one 'laminar' endpoint: a second subflow is created.
- With multiple 'laminar' endpoints: 2 IPv4 subflows are created.
- With one 'laminar' endpoint, but the server announcing a second IP
address, only one subflow is created.
- With one 'laminar' + 'subflow' endpoint, the same endpoint is only
used once.

__ptr_ring_zero_tail currently does the - 1 operation twice:
- during initialization of head
- at each loop iteration
Let's just do it in one place, all we need to do
is adjust the loop condition. this is better:
- a slightly clearer logic with less duplication
- uses prefix -- we don't need to save the old value
- one less - 1 operation - for example, when ring is empty
we now don't do - 1 at all, existing code does it once
net: wangxun: add RSS reta and rxfh fields support
Add ethtool ops for Rx flow hashing, query and set RSS indirection table
and hash key. Disable UDP RSS by default, and support to configure L4
header fields with TCP/UDP/SCTP for flow hasing.
For global RSS and multiple RSS scheme, the RSS type fields are defined
identically in the registers. So they can be defined as the macros
WX_RSS_FIELD_* to cleanup the codes. And to prepare for the RXFH support
in the next patch, move the rss_field to struct wx.
net: libwx: support separate RSS configuration for every pool
For those devices which support 64 pools, they also support PF and VF
(i.e. different pools) to configure different RSS key and hash table.
Enable multiple RSS, use up to 64 RSS configurations and each pool has a
specific configuration.

net/mlx5: IFC add balance ID and LAG per MP group bits
Add interface definitions for load balance ID and LAG per multiplane group
functionality. This patch introduces the hardware capability bits needed
to support balance ID in multiplane LAG configurations.
The new fields include:
- load_balance_id: 4-bit field for balance identifier.
- lag_per_mp_group: capability bit for LAG per multiplane group support.
These interface additions are prerequisites for implementing balance ID
support in the MLX5 driver.
Before this cap, firmware requested a certain creation order between TIR
objects and SQs of the same transport domain to properly support the
self loopback prevention feature. If order is not preserved, explicit
modify_tir operations are necessary after the opening of the SQs.
When set, this cap bit indicates that this firmware requirement /
limitation no longer holds.

Bluetooth: remove duplicate h4_recv_buf() in header
The "h4_recv.h" header contains a duplicate h4_recv_buf() that is nearly
but not quite identical to the h4_recv_buf() in hci_h4.c.
This duplicated header was added in commit 07eb96a5a7b0 ("Bluetooth:
bpa10x: Use separate h4_recv_buf helper"). I wasn't able to find any
explanation for duplicating the code in the discussion:
Unfortunately, in the years since, several other drivers have come to
also rely on this duplicated function, probably by accident. This is, at
the very least, *extremely* confusing. It's also caused real issues when
it's become out-of-sync, see the following:
ef564119ba83 ("Bluetooth: hci_h4: Add support for ISO packets") 61b27cdf025b ("Bluetooth: hci_h4: Add support for ISO packets in h4_recv.h")
This is the full diff between the two implementations today:
As I read this: If alignment is one, and padding is zero, padding
remains zero throughout the loop. So it seems to me that the two
functions behave strictly identically in that case. All the duplicated
defines are also identical, as is the duplicated h4_recv_pkt structure
declaration.
All four drivers which use the duplicated function use the default
alignment of one, and the default padding of zero. I therefore conclude
the duplicate function may be safely replaced with the core one.
I raised this in an RFC a few months ago, and didn't get much interest:

Bluetooth: btusb: Check for unexpected bytes when defragmenting HCI frames
Some Barrot based USB Bluetooth dongles erroneously send one extra
random byte for the HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_EXT_FEATURES command. The
consequence of that is that the next HCI transfer is misaligned by one
byte causing undefined behavior. In most cases the response event for
the next command fails with random error code.
Since the HCI_OP_READ_LOCAL_EXT_FEATURES command is used during HCI
controller initialization, the initialization fails rendering the USB
dongle not usable.
