2021-02-12ixgbe: store the result of ixgbe_rx_offset() onto ixgbe_ringMaciej Fijalkowski
Output of ixgbe_rx_offset() is based on ethtool's priv flag setting, which when changed, causes PF reset (disables napi, frees irqs, loads different Rx mem model, etc.). This means that within napi its result is constant and there is no reason to call it per each processed frame. Add new 'rx_offset' field to ixgbe_ring that is meant to hold the ixgbe_rx_offset() result and use it within ixgbe_clean_rx_irq(). Furthermore, use it within ixgbe_alloc_mapped_page(). Last but not least, un-inline the function of interest as it lives in .c file so let compiler do the decision about the inlining.

2021-02-12i40e: adjust i40e_is_non_eopMaciej Fijalkowski
i40e_is_non_eop had a leftover comment and unused skb argument which was used for placing the skb onto rx_buf in case when current buffer was non-eop one. This is not relevant anymore as commit e72e56597ba1 ("i40e/i40evf: Moves skb from i40e_rx_buffer to i40e_ring") pulled the non-complete skb handling out of rx_bufs up to rx_ring. Therefore, let's adjust the function arguments that i40e_is_non_eop takes. Furthermore, since there is already a function responsible for bumping the ntc, make use of that and drop that logic from i40e_is_non_eop so that the scope of this function is limited to what the name actually states.

2021-02-12arm64: mte: Allow PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS access to the zero pageCatalin Marinas
The ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) implementation checks whether the user page has valid tags (mapped with PROT_MTE) by testing the PG_mte_tagged page flag. If this bit is cleared, ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) returns -EIO. A newly created (PROT_MTE) mapping points to the zero page which had its tags zeroed during cpu_enable_mte(). If there were no prior writes to this mapping, ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) fails with -EIO since the zero page does not have the PG_mte_tagged flag set. Set PG_mte_tagged on the zero page when its tags are cleared during boot. In addition, to avoid ptrace(PTRACE_PEEKMTETAGS) succeeding on !PROT_MTE mappings pointing to the zero page, change the __access_remote_tags() check to (vm_flags & VM_MTE) instead of PG_mte_tagged.

2021-02-12btrfs: initialize fs_info::csum_size earlier in open_ctreeSu Yue
User reported that btrfs-progs misc-tests/028-superblock-recover fails: [TEST/misc] 028-superblock-recover unexpected success: mounted fs with corrupted superblock test failed for case 028-superblock-recover The test case expects that a broken image with bad superblock will be rejected to be mounted. However, the test image just passed csum check of superblock and was successfully mounted. Commit 55fc29bed8dd ("btrfs: use cached value of fs_info::csum_size everywhere") replaces all calls to btrfs_super_csum_size by fs_info::csum_size. The calls include the place where fs_info->csum_size is not initialized. So btrfs_check_super_csum() passes because memcmp() with len 0 always returns 0. Fix it by caching csum size in btrfs_fs_info::csum_size once we know the csum type in superblock is valid in open_ctree().

2021-02-12mac80211: minstrel_ht: significantly redesign the rate probing strategyFelix Fietkau
The biggest flaw in current minstrel_ht is the fact that it needs way too many probing packets to be able to quickly find the best rate. Depending on the wifi hardware and operating mode, this can significantly reduce throughput when not operating at the highest available data rate. In order to be able to significantly reduce the amount of rate sampling, we need a much smarter selection of probing rates. The new approach introduced by this patch maintains a limited set of available rates to be tested during a statistics window. They are split into distinct categories: - MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_INC - incremental rate upgrade: Pick the next rate group and find the first rate that is faster than the current max. throughput rate - MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_JUMP - random testing of higher rates: Pick a random rate from the next group that is faster than the current max throughput rate. This allows faster adaptation when the link changes significantly - MINSTREL_SAMPLE_TYPE_SLOW - test a rate between max_prob, max_tp2 and max_tp in order to reduce the gap between them In order to prioritize sampling, every 6 attempts are split into 3x INC, 2x JUMP, 1x SLOW. Available rates are checked and refilled on every stats window update. With this approach, we finally get a very small delta in throughput when comparing setting the optimal data rate as a fixed rate vs normal rate control operation.

Usually this leads to untested lower rates getting initialized with a probability value of 100%, making them better candidates for fallback without having to rely on random probing Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@nbd.name> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210127055735.78599-3-nbd@nbd.name Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>

Sparse started warning on this function because we can potentially return an uninitialized value. The reason is that if the caller passes a min_bw value that is higher then the last value in bws[], we will not go into the loop and reg_rule will remain initialized. This cannot happen because the only caller of this function uses either 1 or 20 in min_bw, but the function will be more robust if we pre-initialize the value.

2021-02-12mac80211: enable QoS support for nl80211 ctrl portMarkus Theil
This patch unifies sending control port frames over nl80211 and AF_PACKET sockets a little more. Before this patch, EAPOL frames got QoS prioritization only when using AF_PACKET sockets. __ieee80211_select_queue only selects a QoS-enabled queue for control port frames, when the control port protocol is set correctly on the skb. For the AF_PACKET path this works, but the nl80211 path used ETH_P_802_3. Another check for injected frames in wme.c then prevented the QoS TID to be copied in the frame. In order to fix this, get rid of the frame injection marking for nl80211 ctrl port and set the correct ethernet protocol. Please note: An erlier version of this path tried to prevent frame aggregation for control port frames in order to speed up the initial connection setup a little. This seemed to cause issues on my older Intel dvm-based hardware, and was therefore removed again. Future commits which try to reintroduce this have to check carefully how hw behaves with aggregated and non-aggregated traffic for the same TID.

2021-02-12rtw88: add napi supportPo-Hao Huang
Use napi to reduce overhead on rx interrupts. Driver used to interrupt kernel for every Rx packet, this could affect both system and network performance. NAPI is a mechanism that uses polling when processing huge amount of traffic, by doing this the number of interrupts can be decreased. Network performance can also benefit from this patch. Since TCP connection is bidirectional and acks are required for every several packets. These ack packets occupie the PCI bus bandwidth and could lead to performance degradation. When napi is used, GRO receive is enabled by default in the mac80211 stack. So mac80211 won't pass every RX TCP packets to the kernel TCP network stack immediately. Instead an aggregated large length TCP packet will be delivered. This reduces the tx acks sent and gains rx performance. After the patch, the Rx throughput increases about 25Mbps in 11ac.

2021-02-12rtw88: add dynamic rrsr configurationPo-Hao Huang
Register rrsr determines the response rate we send. In field tests, using rate higher than current tx rate could lead to difficulty for the receiving end to receive management/control frames. Calculate current modulation level by tx rate then cross out rate higher than those.

2021-02-12iwlwifi: remove incorrect comment in pnvmLuca Coelho
We use this driver as a backport that also runs on older kernels (as part of the backports project). So we use some checks to backport or prevent code from compiling in incompatible kernel version. When I took one of the PNVM patches from the backport, I accidentally left the comment that a certain part of the code doesn't work in older kernels. This obviously should never be valid for the mainline. Remove this comment.

2021-02-11bpf: Fix subreg optimization for BPF_FETCHIlya Leoshkevich
All 32-bit variants of BPF_FETCH (add, and, or, xor, xchg, cmpxchg) define a 32-bit subreg and thus have zext_dst set. Their encoding, however, uses dst_reg field as a base register, which causes opt_subreg_zext_lo32_rnd_hi32() to zero-extend said base register instead of the one the insn really defines (r0 or src_reg). Fix by properly choosing a register being defined, similar to how check_atomic() already does that.

Based on [1], BPF_CMPXCHG should always load the old value into R0. The phrasing in bpf.rst is somewhat ambiguous in this regard, improve it to make this aspect crystal clear.

2021-02-11net/sock: Add kernel config SOCK_RX_QUEUE_MAPPINGTariq Toukan
Use a new config SOCK_RX_QUEUE_MAPPING to compile-in the socket RX queue field and logic, instead of the XPS config. This breaks dependency in XPS, and allows selecting it from non-XPS use cases, as we do in the next patch. In addition, use the new flag to wrap the logic in sk_rx_queue_get() and protect access to the sk_rx_queue_mapping field, while keeping the function exposed unconditionally, just like sk_rx_queue_set() and sk_rx_queue_clear().
