net: dsa: add GRO support via gro_cells

2021-03-11T13:05:00+00:00

commit e131a5634830047923c694b4ce0c3b31745ff01b upstream. gro_cells lib is used by different encapsulating netdevices, such as geneve, macsec, vxlan etc. to speed up decapsulated traffic processing. CPU tag is a sort of "encapsulation", and we can use the same mechs to greatly improve overall DSA performance. skbs are passed to the GRO layer after removing CPU tags, so we don't need any new packet offload types as it was firstly proposed by me in the first GRO-over-DSA variant [1]. The size of struct gro_cells is sizeof(void *), so hot struct dsa_slave_priv becomes only 4/8 bytes bigger, and all critical fields remain in one 32-byte cacheline. The other positive side effect is that drivers for network devices that can be shipped as CPU ports of DSA-driven switches can now use napi_gro_frags() to pass skbs to kernel. Packets built that way are completely non-linear and are likely being dropped without GRO. This was tested on to-be-mainlined-soon Ethernet driver that uses napi_gro_frags(), and the overall performance was on par with the variant from [1], sometimes even better due to minimal overhead. net.core.gro_normal_batch tuning may help to push it to the limit on particular setups and platforms. iperf3 IPoE VLAN NAT TCP forwarding (port1.218 -> port0) setup on 1.2 GHz MIPS board: 5.7-rc2 baseline: [ID] Interval Transfer Bitrate Retr [ 5] 0.00-120.01 sec 9.00 GBytes 644 Mbits/sec 413 sender [ 5] 0.00-120.00 sec 8.99 GBytes 644 Mbits/sec receiver Iface RX packets TX packets eth0 7097731 7097702 port0 426050 6671829 port1 6671681 425862 port1.218 6671677 425851 With this patch: [ID] Interval Transfer Bitrate Retr [ 5] 0.00-120.01 sec 12.2 GBytes 870 Mbits/sec 122 sender [ 5] 0.00-120.00 sec 12.2 GBytes 870 Mbits/sec receiver Iface RX packets TX packets eth0 9474792 9474777 port0 455200 353288 port1 9019592 455035 port1.218 353144 455024 v2: - Add some performance examples in the commit message; - No functional changes.

net: dsa: Add PHYLINK switch operations

2018-05-11T16:03:05+00:00

In preparation for adding support for PHYLINK within DSA, define a number of operations that we will need and that switch drivers can start implementing. Proper integration with PHYLINK will follow in subsequent patches. We start selecting PHYLINK (which implies PHYLIB) in net/dsa/Kconfig such that drivers can be guaranteed that this dependency is properly taken care of and can start referencing PHYLINK helper functions without requiring stubs or anything.

net: dsa: Fix dependencies on bridge

2017-11-14T02:11:45+00:00

DSA now uses one of the symbols exported by the bridge, br_vlan_enabled(). This has a stub, if the bridge is not enabled. However, if the bridge is enabled, we cannot have DSA built in and the bridge as a module, otherwise we get undefined symbols at link time: net/dsa/port.o: In function `dsa_port_vlan_add': net/dsa/port.c:255: undefined reference to `br_vlan_enabled' net/dsa/port.o: In function `dsa_port_vlan_del': net/dsa/port.c:270: undefined reference to `br_vlan_enabled' Reported-by: kbuild test robot Signed-off-by: Andrew Lunn Signed-off-by: David S.

net: dsa: Support prepended Broadcom tag

2017-11-13T01:34:54+00:00

Add a new type: DSA_TAG_PROTO_PREPEND which allows us to support for the 4-bytes Broadcom tag that we already support, but in a format where it is pre-pended to the packet instead of located between the MAC SA and the Ethertyper (DSA_TAG_PROTO_BRCM).

net: dsa: add support for the SMSC-LAN9303 tagging format

2017-04-20T17:48:54+00:00

To define the outgoing port and to discover the incoming port a regular VLAN tag is used by the LAN9303. But its VID meaning is 'special'. This tag handler/filter depends on some hardware features which must be enabled in the device to provide and make use of this special VLAN tag to control the destination and the source of an ethernet packet.
