cdc_ncm: add buffer tuning and stats using ethtool
Quoting the previous description of this series (skip to the
changelog below if you only want a summary of the changes):
"I have got quite a few reports from frustrated users of OpenWRT
hosts trying to use some powerful LTE modem, but not achieving
full speed. This is typically caused by a combination of
big buffers and little memory, giving in allocation errors and
bad performance as a result.
This series is an attempt to let users adjust the size of these
buffers without having to rebuild the driver.
Patches 1 - 4 are mostly rearranging existing code, in preparing
for the dynamic buffer size changes.
Patch 5 adds userspace control (ab)using the ethtool coalescing
API. This isn't a perfect match, which is the main reason why I
post this series as a RFC.
Patch 6 is an unrelated framing optimization, reducing the
overhead quite a bit and allowing for better use of smaller
buffers.
Patch 7 changes the way we calculate frame padding cutoff. The
problem with big buffers is made much worse by the current padding
strategy where zero padding often can account for more than 90% of
the frames.
Patch 8 add some counters giving some insight into how well the
NCM/MBIM protocol works, supporting further tuning.
Patch 9 reduce the initial maximum buffer size from 32kB to 16kB
in an attempt to make the default better suit all. It is still
possible to tune this up again to the old fixed max, using the
new tuning knobs.
I must admit that I had higher hopes for this series before I
tested it on my own modems. One really unexpected result was
that one of the MBIM modems accepted the new rx buffer size we
set, but happily continued sending buffers of the same size as
before. Needless to say: This did not work very well...
So don't really expect to be able to use any values with any
given device. Firmware implementations are still... I don't
think I have words suitable for a public mailing list.
But I am hoping this will help the many users who have had success
rebuilding the driver with lower fixed limits.
Please test and/or comment!"
Changes:
** RFC -> v1 **
Patch 10 - a follow-up to a comment Joe Perches made in November
2013. I don't always forget :-)
Patch 11 - removes the redundant "connected" driver state, and the
associated .check_connect callbacks.
** v1 -> v2 **
Patch 1 - Better handling of minium rx buffer size, based on feedback
from Oliver Neukum and Enrico Mioso
Patch 5 - fixed locking around timer interval update
Patch 9 - fixed whitespace error
Patch 12 - new fix related to the tuneable tx timer
...and spelling fixes all over the commit messages. I have finally
added a spelling hook, which I'm sure may of you will appreciate :-)

To have an idea of the effects of the protocol coalescing
it's useful to have some counters showing the different
aspects.
Due to the asymmetrical usbnet interface the netdev
rx_bytes counter has been counting real received payload,
while the tx_bytes counter has included the NCM/MBIM
framing overhead. This overhead can be many times the
payload because of the aggressive padding strategy of
this driver, and will vary a lot depending on device
and traffic.
With very few exceptions, users are only interested in
the payload size. Having an somewhat accurate payload
byte counter is particularly important for mobile
broadband devices, which many NCM devices and of course
all MBIM devices are. Users and userspace applications
will use this counter to monitor account quotas.
Having protocol specific counters for the overhead, we are
now able to correct the tx_bytes netdev counter so that
it shows the real payload

We pad frames larger than X to maximum size for devices which
don't need a ZLP after maximum sized frames. This allows the
device to optimize its transfers for one fixed buffer size.
X was arbitrarily set at 512 bytes regardless of real buffer
maximum, causing extreme overheads due to excessive padding of
larger tx buffers. Limit the padding to at most 3 full USB
packets, still allowing the overhead to payload ratio of 3/1.

Many newer NCM and MBIM devices will request a maximum tx
datagram count which is much smaller than our hard-coded
absolute max. We can reduce the overhead without sacrificing
any of the simplicity for these devices, by simply using the
true negotiated count in when calculated the maximum NTH and
NDP header sizes.

Datagram coalescing is an integral part of the NCM and MBIM
protocols, intended to reduce the interrupt load primarily
on the device end of the USB link. As with all coalescing
solutions, there is a trade-off between buffering and
interrupts.
The current defaults are based on the assumption that device
side buffers should be the limiting factor. However, many
modern high speed LTE modems suffers from buffer-bloat,
making this assumption fail. This results in sub-optimal
performance due to excessive coalescing. And in cases where
such modems are connected to cheap embedded hosts there is
often severe buffer allocation issues, giving very noticeable
performance degradation .
A start on improving this is going from build time hard
coded limits to per device user configurable limits. The
ethtool coalescing API was selected as user interface
because, although the tuned values are buffer sizes, these
settings directly control datagram coalescing.

802154: implement link-layer security
This patch series implements 802.15.4-2011 link layer security.
Patches 1 and 2 prepare for llsec by adding data structures to represent the
llsec PIB as specified in 802.15.4-2011. I've changed some structures from
their specification to be more sensible, since 802.15.4 specifies some
structures in not-exactly-useful ways. Nested lists are common, but not very
accessible for netlink methods, and not very fast to traverse when searching
for specific elements either.
Patch 3 implements backends for these structures in mac802154.
Patch 4 and 5 implement the encryption and decryption methods, split from patch
3 to ease review. The encryption and decryption methods are almost entirely
compliant with the specified outgoing/incoming frame procedures. Decryption
deviates from the specification slightly where the specification makes no
sense, i.e. encrypted frames with security level 0 may be sent, but must be
dropped an reception - but transforms for processing such frames are given a
few lines in the standard. I've opted to not drop these frames instead of not
implementing the transforms that wouldn't be used if they were dropped.
Patch 6 links the mac802154 llsec with the SoftMAC devices. This is mainly
init//fini code for llsec context, handling of security subheaders and calling
the encryption/decryption methods.
Patch 7 adds sockopts to 802.15.4 dgram sockets to modifiy outgoing security
parameters on a per-socket basis. Ideally, this would also be available for
sockets on 6lowpan devices, but I'm not sure how to do that nicely.
Patch 8 adds forwarders to the llsec configuration methods for netlink, patch
10 implements these netlink accessors. This is mainly mechanical.
Patch 11, implements a key tracking option for devices that previous patches
haven't, because I'm not entirely sure whether this is the best approach to the
problem. It performs reasonably well though, so I decided to include it as a
separate patch in this series instead of sending an RFC just for this one
option.

The 802.15.4-2011 standard states that for each key, a list of devices
that use this key shall be kept. Previous patches have only considered
two options:
* a device "uses" (or may use) all keys, rendering the list useless
* a device is restricted to a certain set of keys
Another option would be that a device *may* use all keys, but need not
do so, and we are interested in the actual set of keys the device uses.
Recording keys used by any given device may have a noticable performance
impact and might not be needed as often. The common case, in which a
device will not switch keys too often, should still perform well.

This patch adds user-visible interfaces for the llsec infrastructure.
For the added methods, the only major difference between all add/remove
implementation lies in how the specific object is parsed, and for dump
requests, how objects are written into netlink messages.
To save on boilerplate code, table dumps are routed through a helper
function that handles netlink dump state, leaving the actual dumping
code to care only about iterating over the table to be dumped and
filling netlink messages. For add/remove methods, the boilerplate
required to work is not quite as large, but still enough to also move
into a local helper.

This patch adds containers and mutators for the major ieee802154_llsec
structures to mac802154. Most of the (rather simple) ieee802154_llsec
structs are wrapped only to provide an rcu_head for orderly disposal,
but some structs - llsec keys notably - require more complex
bookkeeping.
Since each llsec key may be referenced by a number of llsec key table
entries (with differing key ids, but the same actual key), we want to
save memory and not allocate crypto transforms for each entry in the
table. Thus, the mac802154 llsec key is reference-counted instead.
Further, each key will have four associated crypto transforms - three
CCM transforms for the authsizes 4/8/16 and one CTR transform for
unauthenticated encryption. If we had a CCM* transform that allowed
authsize 0, and authsize as part of requests instead of transforms, this
would not be necessary.

The added structures match 802.15.4-2011 link-layer security PIBs as
closely as is reasonable. Some lists required by the standard were
modeled as bitmaps (frame_types and command_frame_ids in *llsec_key,
802.15.4-2011 7.5/Table 61), since using lists for those seems a bit
excessive and not particularly useful. The DeviceDescriptorHandleList
was inverted and is here a per-device list, since operations on this
list are likely to have both a key and a device at hand, and per-device
lists of keys are shorter than per-key lists of devices.

Add DT support for fixed PHYs
Here is a fourth version of the patch set that adds a Device Tree
binding and the related code to support fixed PHYs. I'm hoping to get
this merged in 3.16.
Changes since v3:
* Rebased on top of v3.15-rc5
* In patch "net: phy: decouple PHY id and PHY address in fixed PHY
driver", changed the PHY ID of fixed PHYs from 0xdeadbeef to 0x0,
as suggested by Grant Likely.
* Fixed the !CONFIG_PHY_FIXED case in patch "net: phy: extend fixed
driver with fixed_phy_register()". Noticed by Florian Fainelli.
* Added Acked-by from Grant Likely and Florian Fainelli on patch
"net: phy: extend fixed driver with fixed_phy_register()".
* Reworked the new fixed-link DT binding to be just a sub-node of the
Ethernet MAC node, and not a node referenced by the 'phy'
property. This was requested by Grant Likely.
* Reworked the code implementing the new DT binding to also make it
accept the old, single property based, DT binding.
* Added a patch that actually uses the new fixed link DT binding for
the Armada XP Matrix board.
Changes since v2:
* Rebased on top of v3.14-rc1, and re-tested on hardware.
* Removed the RFC tag, since there seems to be some real interest in
this feature, and the code has gone through several iterations
already.
* The error handling in fixed_phy_register() has been fixed.
Changes since v1:
* Instead of using a 'fixed-link' property inside the Ethernet device
DT node, with a fairly cryptic succession of integer values, we now
use a PHY subnode under the Ethernet device DT node, with explicit
properties to configure the duplex, speed, pause and other PHY
properties.
* The PHY address is automatically allocated by the kernel and no
longer visible in the Device Tree binding.
* The PHY device is created directly when the network driver calls
of_phy_connect_fixed_link(), and associated to the PHY DT node,
which allows the existing of_phy_connect() function to work,
without the need to use the deprecated of_phy_connect_fixed_link().

Some Ethernet MACs have a "fixed link", and are not connected to a
normal MDIO-managed PHY device. For those situations, a Device Tree
binding allows to describe a "fixed link" using a special PHY node.
This patch adds:
* A documentation for the fixed PHY Device Tree binding.
* An of_phy_is_fixed_link() function that an Ethernet driver can call
on its PHY phandle to find out whether it's a fixed link PHY or
not. It should typically be used to know if
of_phy_register_fixed_link() should be called.
* An of_phy_register_fixed_link() function that instantiates the
fixed PHY into the PHY subsystem, so that when the driver calls
of_phy_connect(), the PHY device associated to the OF node will be
found.
These two additional functions also support the old fixed-link Device
Tree binding used on PowerPC platforms, so that ultimately, the
network device drivers for those platforms could be converted to use
of_phy_is_fixed_link() and of_phy_register_fixed_link() instead of
of_phy_connect_fixed_link(), while keeping compatibility with their
respective Device Tree bindings.

The existing fixed_phy_add() function has several drawbacks that
prevents it from being used as is for OF-based declaration of fixed
PHYs:
* The address of the PHY on the fake bus needs to be passed, while a
dynamic allocation is desired.
* Since the phy_device instantiation is post-poned until the next
mdiobus scan, there is no way to associate the fixed PHY with its
OF node, which later prevents of_phy_connect() from finding this
fixed PHY from a given OF node.
To solve this, this commit introduces fixed_phy_register(), which will
allocate an available PHY address, add the PHY using fixed_phy_add()
and instantiate the phy_device structure associated with the provided
OF node.

Until now, the fixed_phy_add() function was taking as argument
'phy_id', which was used both as the PHY address on the fake fixed
MDIO bus, and as the PHY id, as available in the MII_PHYSID1 and
MII_PHYSID2 registers. However, those two informations are completely
unrelated.
This patch decouples them. The PHY id of fixed PHYs is hardcoded to be
0x0. Ideally, a really reserved value would be nicer, but there
doesn't seem to be an easy of making sure a dummy value can be
assigned to the Linux kernel for such usage.
The PHY address remains passed by the caller of phy_fixed_add().

bridge: Non-promisc bridge ports support
This series adds functionality to the bridge device to enable
operations without setting all ports to promiscuous mode.
The basic concept is this. The bridge keeps track of the ports
that support learning and flooding packets to unknown destinations.
We call these ports auto-discovery ports since they automatically
discover who is behind them through learning and flooding.
If flooding and learning are disabled via flags, then the port
requires static configuration to tell it which mac addresses
are behind it. This is accomplished through adding of fdbs.
These fdbs should be static as dynamic fdbs can expire and systems
will become unreachable due to lack of flooding.
If the user marks all ports as needing static configuration then
we can safely make them non-promiscuous since we will know all the
information about them.
If the user leaves only 1 port as automatic, then we can mark
that port as not-promiscuous as well. One could think of
this a edge relay similar to what's support by embedded switches
in SRIOV devices. Since we have all the information about the
other ports, we can just program the mac addresses into the
single automatic port to receive all necessary traffic.
More information about this is patch 6.
In other cases, we keep all ports promiscuous as before.
There are some other cases when promiscuous mode has to be turned
back on. One is when the bridge itself if placed in promiscuous
mode (user sets promisc flag). The other is if vlan filtering is
turned off. Since this is the default configuration, the default
bridge operation is not changed.
Changes since v2:
- White space and spelling fixes from Michael Tsirkin
- Squash patches 6, 7 and 8 to prevent bisect breakage.
Changes since v1:
- Address issues rasied by Stephen Heminger
- Address initializer comments raised by Sergey Shtylyov
- Rebased recent net-next.
Changes since rfc v2:
- Better description of in the commit logs
- Leave port in promiscuous mode if IFF_UNICAST_FLT is disabled on the
device.
- Fix issue with flag masking
- Rework patch ordering a bit.
Changes since rfc v1:
- Removed private list. We now traverse the fdb hashtable itself
to write necessary addresses to the ports (Stephen's concern)
- Add learning flag to the mask for flags that decides if the port
is 'auto' or not (suggest by MST and Jamal).
- Simplified tracking of such ports at the cost of a loop over all
ports (suggested by MST)
I've played with quite a large number of ports and the current approach
seems to work fairly well.
