net: mctp: separate routing database from routing operations
This change adds a struct mctp_dst, representing the result of a routing
lookup. This decouples the struct mctp_route from the actual
implementation of a routing operation.
This will allow for future routing changes which may require more
involved lookup logic, such as gateway routing - which may require
multiple traversals of the routing table.
Since we only use the struct mctp_route at lookup time, we no longer
hold routes over a routing operation, as we only need it to populate the
dst. However, we do hold the dev while the dst is active.
This requires some changes to the route test infrastructure, as we no
longer have a mock route to handle the route output operation, and
transient dsts are created by the routing code, so we can't override
them as easily.
Instead, we use kunit->priv to stash a packet queue, and a custom
dst_output function queues into that packet queue, which we can use for
later expectations.

net: bonding: add broadcast_neighbor option for 802.3ad
Stacking technology is a type of technology used to expand ports on
Ethernet switches. It is widely used as a common access method in
large-scale Internet data center architectures. Years of practice
have proved that stacking technology has advantages and disadvantages
in high-reliability network architecture scenarios. For instance,
in stacking networking arch, conventional switch system upgrades
require multiple stacked devices to restart at the same time.
Therefore, it is inevitable that the business will be interrupted
for a while. It is for this reason that "no-stacking" in data centers
has become a trend. Additionally, when the stacking link connecting
the switches fails or is abnormal, the stack will split. Although it is
not common, it still happens in actual operation. The problem is that
after the split, it is equivalent to two switches with the same
configuration appearing in the network, causing network configuration
conflicts and ultimately interrupting the services carried by the
stacking system.
To improve network stability, "non-stacking" solutions have been
increasingly adopted, particularly by public cloud providers and
tech companies like Alibaba, Tencent, and Didi. "non-stacking" is
a method of mimicing switch stacking that convinces a LACP peer,
bonding in this case, connected to a set of "non-stacked" switches
that all of its ports are connected to a single switch
(i.e., LACP aggregator), as if those switches were stacked. This
enables the LACP peer's ports to aggregate together, and requires
(a) special switch configuration, described in the linked article,
and (b) modifications to the bonding 802.3ad (LACP) mode to send
all ARP/ND packets across all ports of the active aggregator.
Note that, with multiple aggregators, the current broadcast mode
logic will send only packets to the selected aggregator(s).
This series optimizes ICM usage for unidirectional rules and
empty matchers and with the last patch we make hardware steering
the default FDB steering provider for NICs that don't support software
steering.
Hardware steering (HWS) uses a type of rule table container (RTC) that
is unidirectional, so matchers consist of two RTCs to accommodate
bidirectional rules.
This small series enables resizing the two RTCs independently by
tracking the number of rules separately. For extreme cases where all
rules are unidirectional, this results in saving close to half the
memory footprint.
Results for inserting 1M unidirectional rules using a simple module:
Pages Memory
Before this patch: 300k 1.5GiB
After this patch: 160k 900MiB
The 'Pages' column measures the number of 4KiB pages the device requests
for itself (the ICM).
The 'Memory' column is the difference between peak usage and baseline
usage (before starting the test) as reported by `free -h`.
In addition, second to last patch of the series handles a case where all
the matcher's rules were deleted: the large RTCs of the matcher are no
longer required, and we can save some more ICM by shrinking the matcher
to its initial size.
Finally the last patch makes hardware steering the default mode
when in swichdev for NICs that don't have software steering support.
====================
Add HW Steering (HWS) as a secondary option for device steering mode. If
the device does not support SW Steering (SWS), HW Steering will be used
as the default, provided it is supported. FW Steering will now be
selected as the default only if both HWS and SWS are unavailable.

Matcher size is dynamic: it starts at initial size, and then it grows
through rehash as more and more rules are added to this matcher.
When rules are deleted, matcher's size is not decreased. Rehash
approach is greedy. The idea is: if the matcher got to a certain size
at some point, chances are - it will get to this size again, so it is
better to avoid costly rehash operations whenever possible.
However, when all the rules of the matcher are deleted, this should
be viewed as special case. If the matcher actually got to the point
where it has zero rules, it might be an indication that some usecase
from the past is no longer happening. This is where some ICM can be
freed.
This patch handles this case: when a number of rules in a matcher
goes down to zero, the matcher's tables are shrunk to the initial
size.

This patch series introduces the Ethernet driver for Broadcom’s
BCM5770X chip family, which supports 50/100/200/400/800 Gbps
link speeds. The driver is built as the bng_en.ko kernel module.
To keep the series within a reviewable size (~5K lines of code), this initial
submission focuses on the core infrastructure and initialization, including:
1) PCIe support (device IDs, probe/remove)
2) Devlink support
3) Firmware communication mechanism
4) Creation of network device
5) PF Resource management (rings, IRQs, etc. for netdev & aux dev)
Support for Tx/Rx datapaths, link management, ethtool/devlink operations
and additional features will be introduced in the subsequent patch series.
The bng_en driver shares the bnxt_hsi.h file with the bnxt_en driver,
as the bng_en driver leverages the hardware communication protocol
used by the bnxt_en driver.
====================
Add a network device with netdev features enabled.
Some features are enabled based on the capabilities
advertised by the firmware. Add the skeleton of minimal
netdev operations. Additionally, initialize the parameters
for rings (TX/RX/Completion).
Query resources from the firmware and, based on the
availability of resources, initialize the default
settings. The default settings include:
1. Rings and other resource reservations with the
firmware. This ensures that resources are reserved
before network and auxiliary devices are created.
2. Mapping the BAR, which helps access doorbells since
its size is known after querying the firmware.
3. Retrieving the TCs and hardware CoS queue mappings.
Get the resources and capabilities from the firmware.
Add functions to manage the resources with the firmware.
These functions will help netdev reserve the resources
with the firmware before registering the device in future
patches. The resources and their information, such as
the maximum available and reserved, are part of the members
present in the bnge_hw_resc struct.
The bnge_reserve_rings() function also populates
the RSS table entries once the RX rings are reserved with
the firmware.
Backing store or context memory on the host helps the
device to manage rings, stats and other resources.
Context memory is allocated with the help of ring
alloc/free functions.
Add ring allocation/free mechanism which help
to allocate rings (TX/RX/Completion) and backing
stores memory on the host for the device.
Future patches will use these functions.
Query firmware with the help of basic firmware commands and
cache the capabilities. With the help of basic commands
start the initialization process of the driver with the
firmware.
Since basic information is available from the firmware,
register with devlink.
Add support to communicate with the firmware.
Future patches will use these functions to send the
messages to the firmware.
Functions support allocating request/response buffers
to send a particular command. Each command has certain
timeout value to which the driver waits for response from
the firmware. In error case, commands may be either timed
out waiting on response from the firmware or may return
a specific error code.
Allocate a base device and devlink interface with minimal
devlink ops.
Add dsn and board related information.
Map PCIe BAR (bar0), which helps to communicate with the
firmware.

netpoll: Factor out functions from netpoll_send_udp() and add ipv6 selftest
Refactors the netpoll UDP transmit path to improve code clarity,
maintainability, and protocol-layer encapsulation.
Function netpoll_send_udp() has more than 100 LoC, which is hard to
understand and review. After this patchset, it has only 32 LoC, which is
more manageable.
The series systematically moves the construction of protocol headers
(UDP, IPv4, IPv6, Ethernet) out of the core `netpoll_send_udp()`
function into dedicated static helpers:
- `push_udp()` for UDP header setup
- `push_ipv4()` and `push_ipv6()` for IP header setup
- `push_eth()` for Ethernet header setup
This results in a clean, layered abstraction that mirrors the protocol
stack, reduces code duplication, and improves readability.
Also, to make sure this is not breaking anything, add IPv6 selftest to
netconsole tests, which will exercise this code. This test would also pick
problems similiar to the one fixed by f599020702698 ("net: netpoll:
Initialize UDP checksum field before checksumming"), which was
embarrassin we didn't have a selftest catch it.
Anyway, there are **no functional changes** intended in this patchset.
selftests: net: Add IPv6 support to netconsole basic tests
Add IPv6 support to the netconsole basic functionality tests by:
- Introducing separate IPv4 and IPv6 address variables (SRCIP4/SRCIP6,
DSTIP4/DSTIP6) to replace the single SRCIP/DSTIP variables
- Adding select_ipv4_or_ipv6() function to choose protocol version
- Updating socat configuration to use UDP6-LISTEN for IPv6 tests
- Adding wait_for_port() wrapper to handle protocol-specific port waiting
- Expanding test matrix to run both basic and extended formats against
both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols
- Improving cleanup to kill any remaining socat processes
- Adding sleep delays for better IPv6 packet handling reliability
The test now validates netconsole functionality across both IP versions,
improving test coverage for dual-stack network environments.
This test would avoid the regression fixed by commit f59902070269 ("net:
netpoll: Initialize UDP checksum field before checksumming")
netpoll: factor out UDP header setup into push_udp() helper
Move UDP header construction from netpoll_send_udp() into a new
static helper function push_udp(). This completes the protocol
layer refactoring by:
1. Creating a dedicated helper for UDP header assembly
2. Removing UDP-specific logic from the main send function
3. Establishing a consistent pattern with existing IPv4/IPv6 helpers:
- push_udp()
- push_ipv4()
- push_ipv6()
The change improves code organization and maintains the encapsulation
pattern established in previous refactorings.
netpoll: factor out IPv4 header setup into push_ipv4() helper
Move IPv4 header construction from netpoll_send_udp() into a new
static helper function push_ipv4(). This completes the refactoring
started with IPv6 header handling, creating symmetric helper functions
for both IP versions.
Changes include:
1. Extracting IPv4 header setup logic into push_ipv4()
2. Replacing inline IPv4 code with helper call
3. Moving eth assignment after helper calls for consistency
The refactoring reduces code duplication and improves maintainability
by isolating IP version-specific logic.
netpoll: factor out IPv6 header setup into push_ipv6() helper
Move IPv6 header construction from netpoll_send_udp() into a new
static helper function, push_ipv6(). This refactoring reduces code
duplication and improves readability in netpoll_send_udp().
netpoll: factor out UDP checksum calculation into helper
Extract UDP checksum calculation logic from netpoll_send_udp()
into a new static helper function netpoll_udp_checksum(). This
reduces code duplication and improves readability for both IPv4
and IPv6 cases.

net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: improve device tree handling
This series further improves the mtk_eth_soc driver in preparation to

Frank Wunderlich's previous attempt to have the ethernet node included
in mt7988a.dtsi and cover support for MT7988 in the device tree bindings
was criticized for the way mtk_eth_soc references SRAM in device tree[1].
Having a 2nd 'reg' property, like introduced by commit ebb1e4f9cf38
("net: ethernet: mtk_eth_soc: add support for in-SoC SRAM") isn't
acceptable and a dedicated "mmio-sram" node should be used instead.
In order to make the code more clean and readable, the existing
hardcoded offsets for the scratch ring, RX and TX rings are dropped in
favor of using the generic allocator. However, support for the hardcoded
offset of the SRAM itself being included as part of the Ethernet's "reg"
MMIO space is kept as it will still be required in order to support
existing legacy device trees of the MT7986 SoC family.
While at it also replace confusing error messages when using legacy
device trees without "interrupt-names" with a warning informing users
that they are using a legacy device tree.

net: openvswitch: allow providing upcall pid for the 'execute' command
When a packet enters OVS datapath and there is no flow to handle it,
packet goes to userspace through a MISS upcall. With per-CPU upcall
dispatch mechanism, we're using the current CPU id to select the
Netlink PID on which to send this packet. This allows us to send
packets from the same traffic flow through the same handler.
The handler will process the packet, install required flow into the
kernel and re-inject the original packet via OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
While handling OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE, however, we may hit a
recirculation action that will pass the (likely modified) packet
through the flow lookup again. And if the flow is not found, the
packet will be sent to userspace again through another MISS upcall.
However, the handler thread in userspace is likely running on a
different CPU core, and the OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE request is handled
in the syscall context of that thread. So, when the time comes to
send the packet through another upcall, the per-CPU dispatch will
choose a different Netlink PID, and this packet will end up processed
by a different handler thread on a different CPU.
The process continues as long as there are new recirculations, each
time the packet goes to a different handler thread before it is sent
out of the OVS datapath to the destination port. In real setups the
number of recirculations can go up to 4 or 5, sometimes more.
There is always a chance to re-order packets while processing upcalls,
because userspace will first install the flow and then re-inject the
original packet. So, there is a race window when the flow is already
installed and the second packet can match it and be forwarded to the
destination before the first packet is re-injected. But the fact that
packets are going through multiple upcalls handled by different
userspace threads makes the reordering noticeably more likely, because
we not only have a race between the kernel and a userspace handler
(which is hard to avoid), but also between multiple userspace handlers.
For example, let's assume that 10 packets got enqueued through a MISS
upcall for handler-1, it will start processing them, will install the
flow into the kernel and start re-injecting packets back, from where
they will go through another MISS to handler-2. Handler-2 will install
the flow into the kernel and start re-injecting the packets, while
handler-1 continues to re-inject the last of the 10 packets, they will
hit the flow installed by handler-2 and be forwarded without going to
the handler-2, while handler-2 still re-injects the first of these 10
packets. Given multiple recirculations and misses, these 10 packets
may end up completely mixed up on the output from the datapath.
Let's allow userspace to specify on which Netlink PID the packets
should be upcalled while processing OVS_PACKET_CMD_EXECUTE.
This makes it possible to ensure that all the packets are processed
by the same handler thread in the userspace even with them being
upcalled multiple times in the process. Packets will remain in order
since they will be enqueued to the same socket and re-injected in the
same order. This doesn't eliminate re-ordering as stated above, since
we still have a race between kernel and the userspace thread, but it
allows to eliminate races between multiple userspace threads.
Userspace knows the PID of the socket on which the original upcall is
received, so there is no need to send it up from the kernel.
Solution requires storing the value somewhere for the duration of the
packet processing. There are two potential places for this: our skb
extension or the per-CPU storage. It's not clear which is better,
so just following currently used scheme of storing this kind of things
along the skb. We still have a decent amount of space in the cb.

Add Tx Hang detection due to an unhandled MDD Event.
Previously, a malicious VF could disable the entire port causing
TX to hang on the E610 card.
Those events that caused PF to freeze were not detected
as an MDD event and usually required a Tx Hang watchdog timer
to catch the suspension, and perform a physical function reset.
Implement flows in the affected PF driver in such a way to check
the cause of the hang, detect it as an MDD event and log an
entry of the malicious VF that caused the Hang.
The PF blocks the malicious VF, if it continues to be the source
of several MDD events.

- Add a missing check for CONFIG_POSIX_AUX_CLOCK in the PTP IOCTL
- Picked up tags

1) Patch #1 is applied to the tip tree on top of plain v6.16-rc1 and
tagged
2) That tag is merged into tip:timers/ptp and the temporary CLOCK_AUX

3) Network folks merge the tag and apply patches #2 + #3

cleanup commit in the tip tree. But that way there are no dependencies and

Allow ioctl(PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED*) to select CLOCK_AUX clock ids for

Aside of adding these clocks to the clock ID validation, this also requires
to check the timestamp to be valid, i.e. the seconds value being greater

asynchronously enabled or disabled, so there is no way to validate the
availability upfront.
The same could have been achieved by handing the return value of
ktime_get_aux_ts64() all the way down to the IOCTL call site, but that'd
require to modify all existing ptp::gettimex64() callbacks and their inner

Merge branch 'fix-irq-vectors'
Jiawen Wu says:
====================
Fix IRQ vectors
The interrupt vector order was adjusted by [1]commit 937d46ecc5f9 ("net:
wangxun: add ethtool_ops for channel number") in Linux-6.8. Because at
that time, the MISC interrupt acts as the parent interrupt in the GPIO
IRQ chip. When the number of Rx/Tx ring changes, the last MISC
interrupt must be reallocated. Then the GPIO interrupt controller would
be corrupted. So the initial plan was to adjust the sequence of the
interrupt vectors, let MISC interrupt to be the first one and do not
free it.
Later, irq_domain was introduced in [2]commit aefd013624a1 ("net: txgbe:
use irq_domain for interrupt controller") to avoid this problem.
However, the vector sequence adjustment was not reverted. So there is
still one problem that has been left unresolved.
Due to hardware limitations of NGBE, queue IRQs can only be requested
on vector 0 to 7. When the number of queues is set to the maximum 8,
the PCI IRQ vectors are allocated from 0 to 8. The vector 0 is used by
MISC interrupt, and althrough the vector 8 is used by queue interrupt,
it is unable to receive packets. This will cause some packets to be
dropped when RSS is enabled and they are assigned to queue 8.
net: ngbe: specify IRQ vector when the number of VFs is 7
For NGBE devices, the queue number is limited to be 1 when SRIOV is
enabled. In this case, IRQ vector[0] is used for MISC and vector[1] is
used for queue, based on the previous patches. But for the hardware
design, the IRQ vector[1] must be allocated for use by the VF[6] when
the number of VFs is 7. So the IRQ vector[0] should be shared for PF
MISC and QUEUE interrupts.
net: wangxun: revert the adjustment of the IRQ vector sequence
Due to hardware limitations of NGBE, queue IRQs can only be requested
on vector 0 to 7. When the number of queues is set to the maximum 8,
the PCI IRQ vectors are allocated from 0 to 8. The vector 0 is used by
MISC interrupt, and althrough the vector 8 is used by queue interrupt,
it is unable to receive packets. This will cause some packets to be
dropped when RSS is enabled and they are assigned to queue 8.
So revert the adjustment of the MISC IRQ location, to make it be the
last one in IRQ vectors.
Move the creating of irq_domain for MISC IRQ from .probe to .ndo_open,
and free it in .ndo_stop, to maintain consistency with the queue IRQs.
This it for subsequent adjustments to the IRQ vectors.

virtio: Fixes for TX ring sizing and resize error reporting
This patch series contains two fixes and a cleanup for the virtio subsystem.
The first patch fixes an error reporting bug in virtio_ring's
virtqueue_resize() function. Previously, errors from internal resize
helpers could be masked if the subsequent re-enabling of the virtqueue
succeeded. This patch restores the correct error propagation, ensuring that
callers of virtqueue_resize() are properly informed of underlying resize
failures.
The second patch does a cleanup of the use of '2+MAX_SKB_FRAGS'
The third patch addresses a reliability issue in virtio_net where the TX
ring size could be configured too small, potentially leading to
persistently stopped queues and degraded performance. It enforces a
minimum TX ring size to ensure there's always enough space for at least one
maximally-fragmented packet plus an additional slot.
====================
Laurent Vivier [Wed, 21 May 2025 09:22:36 +0000 (11:22 +0200)]
virtio_net: Enforce minimum TX ring size for reliability
The `tx_may_stop()` logic stops TX queues if free descriptors
(`sq->vq->num_free`) fall below the threshold of (`MAX_SKB_FRAGS` + 2).
If the total ring size (`ring_num`) is not strictly greater than this
value, queues can become persistently stopped or stop after minimal
use, severely degrading performance.
A single sk_buff transmission typically requires descriptors for:
- The virtio_net_hdr (1 descriptor)
- The sk_buff's linear data (head) (1 descriptor)
- Paged fragments (up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS descriptors)
This patch enforces that the TX ring size ('ring_num') must be strictly
greater than (MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 2). This ensures that the ring is
always large enough to hold at least one maximally-fragmented packet
plus at least one additional slot.

from its internal resize helper functions, specifically
virtqueue_resize_packet() and virtqueue_resize_split(). If these helpers

Consequently, virtqueue_resize() could incorrectly report success to its

Fix: commit ad48d53b5b3f ("virtio_ring: separate the logic of reset/enable from virtqueue_resize") Cc: xuanzhuo@linux.alibaba.com Signed-off-by: Laurent Vivier <lvivier@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250521092236.661410-2-lvivier@redhat.com Tested-by: Lei Yang <leiyang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.

When calling buf_to_xdp, the len argument is the frame data's length
without virtio header's length (vi->hdr_len). We check that len with
xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() + vi->hdr_len
to ensure the provided len does not larger than the allocated chunk
size. The additional vi->hdr_len is because in virtnet_add_recvbuf_xsk,
we use part of XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM for virtio header and ask the vhost
to start placing data from
hard_start + XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM - vi->hdr_len
not
hard_start + XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM
But the first buffer has virtio_header, so the maximum frame's length in
the first buffer can only be
xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size()
not
xsk_pool_get_rx_frame_size() + vi->hdr_len
like in the current check.
This commit adds an additional argument to buf_to_xdp differentiate
between the first buffer and other ones to correctly calculate the maximum
frame's length.

====================
virtio-net: fixes for mergeable XDP receive path
This series contains fixes for XDP receive path in virtio-net
- Patch 1: add a missing check for the received data length with our
allocated buffer size in mergeable mode.
- Patch 2: remove a redundant truesize check with PAGE_SIZE in mergeable
mode
- Patch 3: make the current repeated code use the check_mergeable_len to
check for received data length in mergeable mode
====================
virtio-net: remove redundant truesize check with PAGE_SIZE
The truesize is guaranteed not to exceed PAGE_SIZE in
get_mergeable_buf_len(). It is saved in mergeable context, which is not
changeable by the host side, so the check in receive path is quite
redundant.
virtio-net: ensure the received length does not exceed allocated size
In xdp_linearize_page, when reading the following buffers from the ring,
we forget to check the received length with the true allocate size. This
can lead to an out-of-bound read. This commit adds that missing check.
