2021-05-07treewide: remove editor modelines and cruftMasahiro Yamada1-11/+0
The section "19) Editor modelines and other cruft" in Documentation/process/coding-style.rst clearly says, "Do not include any of these in source files." I recently receive a patch to explicitly add a new one. Let's do treewide cleanups, otherwise some people follow the existing code and attempt to upstream their favoriate editor setups. It is even nicer if scripts/checkpatch.pl can check it. If we like to impose coding style in an editor-independent manner, I think editorconfig (patch [1]) is a saner solution.

2021-01-19bonding: add a vlan+srcmac tx hashing optionJarod Wilson1-0/+1
This comes from an end-user request, where they're running multiple VMs on hosts with bonded interfaces connected to some interest switch topologies, where 802.3ad isn't an option. They're currently running a proprietary solution that effectively achieves load-balancing of VMs and bandwidth utilization improvements with a similar form of transmission algorithm. Basically, each VM has it's own vlan, so it always sends its traffic out the same interface, unless that interface fails. Traffic gets split between the interfaces, maintaining a consistent path, with failover still available if an interface goes down. Unlike bond_eth_hash(), this hash function is using the full source MAC address instead of just the last byte, as there are so few components to the hash, and in the no-vlan case, we would be returning just the last byte of the source MAC as the hash value. It's entirely possible to have two NICs in a bond with the same last byte of their MAC, but not the same MAC, so this adjustment should guarantee distinct hashes in all cases. This has been rudimetarily tested to provide similar results to the proprietary solution it is aiming to replace. A patch for iproute2 is also posted, to properly support the new mode there as well.

2019-12-26bonding: rename AD_STATE_* to LACP_STATE_*Andy Roulin1-8/+8
As the LACP actor/partner state is now part of the uapi, rename the 3ad state defines with LACP prefix. The LACP prefix is preferred over BOND_3AD as the LACP standard moved to 802.1AX.

2019-12-14bonding: move 802.3ad port state flags to uapiAndy Roulin1-0/+10
The bond slave actor/partner operating state is exported as bitfield to userspace, which lacks a way to interpret it, e.g., iproute2 only prints the state as a number: ad_actor_oper_port_state 15 For userspace to interpret the bitfield, the bitfield definitions should be part of the uapi. The bitfield itself is defined in the 802.3ad standard. This commit moves the 802.3ad bitfield definitions to uapi. Related iproute2 patches, soon to be posted upstream, use the new uapi headers to pretty-print bond slave state, e.g., with ip -d link show ad_actor_oper_port_state_str <active,short_timeout,aggregating,in_sync> Signed-off-by: Andy Roulin <aroulin@cumulusnetworks.com> Acked-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Acked-by: Jay Vosburgh <jay.vosburgh@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <jakub.kicinski@netronome.com>
2019-01-22bonding: add support for xstats and export 3ad statsNikolay Aleksandrov1-0/+24
This patch adds support for extended statistics (xstats) call to the bonding. The first user would be the 3ad code which counts the following events: - LACPDU Rx/Tx - LACPDU unknown type Rx - LACPDU illegal Rx - Marker Rx/Tx - Marker response Rx/Tx - Marker unknown type Rx All of these are exported via netlink as separate attributes to be easily extensible as we plan to add more in the future. Similar to how the bridge and other xstats exports, the structure inside is: [ IFLA_STATS_LINK_XSTATS ] -> [ LINK_XSTATS_TYPE_BOND ] -> [ BOND_XSTATS_3AD ] -> [ 3ad stats attributes ] With this structure it's easy to add more stat types later.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2013-10-03bonding: modify the old and add new xmit hash policiesNikolay Aleksandrov1-0/+2
This patch adds two new hash policy modes which use skb_flow_dissect: 3 - Encapsulated layer 2+3 4 - Encapsulated layer 3+4 There should be a good improvement for tunnel users in those modes. It also changes the old hash functions to: hash ^= (__force u32)flow.dst ^ (__force u32)flow.src; hash ^= (hash >> 16); hash ^= (hash >> 8); Where hash will be initialized either to L2 hash, that is SRCMAC[5] XOR DSTMAC[5], or to flow->ports which should be extracted from the upper layer. Flow's dst and src are also extracted based on the xmit policy either directly from the buffer or by using skb_flow_dissect, but in both cases if the protocol is IPv6 then dst and src are obtained by ipv6_addr_hash() on the real addresses. In case of a non-dissectable packet, the algorithms fall back to L2 hashing. The bond_set_mode_ops() function is now obsolete and thus deleted because it was used only to set the proper hash policy. Also we trim a pointer from struct bonding because we no longer need to keep the hash function, now there's only a single hash function - bond_xmit_hash that works based on bond->params.xmit_policy. The hash function and skb_flow_dissect were suggested by Eric Dumazet. The layer names were suggested by Andy Gospodarek, because I suck at semantics.
