From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
Add a ynl netdev family operation called bind-queue that creates a new
rx queue in a virtual netdev (i.e. netkit or veth) and binds it to an rx
queue in a real netdev. This forms a queue pair, where the peer queue of
the pair in the virtual netdev acts as a proxy for the peer queue in the
real netdev. Thus, the peer queue in the virtual netdev can be used by
processes running in a container to use both memory providers (io_uring
zero-copy rx and devmem) and AF_XDP. An early implementation had only
driver-specific integration [0], but in order for other virtual devices
to reuse, it makes sense to have this as a generic API.
src-ifindex and src-queue-id is the real netdev and its rx queue id
respectively. dst-ifindex is the virtual netdev. Note that this op doesn't
take dst-queue-id because a new rx queue is created. The virtual netdev
must have real_num_rx_queues less than num_rx_queues at the time of
calling bind-queue. The queue-type must be rx as only rx queues are
supported for now.

From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
Implement netdev_nl_bind_queue_doit() that creates an rx queue in a
virtual netdev and then binds it to an rxq in a real netdev to create
a queue pair.
Example with ynl client:
# ./pyynl/cli.py \
--spec ~/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
--do bind-queue \
--json '{"src-ifindex": 4, "src-queue-id": 15, "dst-ifindex": 8, "queue-type": "rx"}'
{'dst-queue-id': 1}
Note that the netdevice locking order is always from the virtual to
the physical device.

From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
Add a nested peer field to the queue-get response that returns the peered
ifindex and queue id.
Example with ynl client:
# ip netns exec foo ./pyynl/cli.py \
--spec ~/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
--do queue-get \
--json '{"ifindex": 3, "id": 1, "type": "rx"}'
{'id': 1, 'ifindex': 3, 'peer': {'id': 15, 'ifindex': 4, 'netns-id': 21}, 'type': 'rx'}
Note that the caller of netdev_nl_queue_fill_one() holds the netdevice
lock. For the queue-get we do not lock both devices. When queues get
{un,}peered, both devices are locked, thus if netdev_rx_queue_peered()
returns true, the peer pointer points to a valid device. The netns-id
is fetched via peernet2id_alloc() similarly as done in OVS.

Similar to AF_XDP, do not allow queues in a physical netdev to be
resized by ethtool -L when they are peered.

From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
When a process in a container wants to setup a memory provider, it will
use the virtual netdev and a mapped rxq, and call net_mp_{open,close}_rxq
to try and restart the queue. At this point, proxy the queue restart on
the real rxq in the physical netdev.
For memory providers (io_uring zero-copy rx and devmem), it causes the
real rxq in the physical netdev to be filled from a memory provider that
has DMA mapped memory from a process within a container.

Move NETDEV_XDP_ACT_ZC into xdp_sock_drv.h header such that external code
can reuse it, and rename it into more generic NETDEV_XDP_ACT_XSK.

dev_get_min_mp_channel_count test into this helper. Pass in the pool
object, such that we derive the netdev from the prior registered pool.

Change the xsk_rcv_check test for inbound packets to use the xs->pool->netdev
and xs->pool->queue_id of the bound socket rather than xs->dev and xs->queue_id
since the latter could point to a virtual device with mapped rxq rather than
the physical backing device of the pool.

Similarly what we do for net_mp_{open,close}_rxq for mapped queues,
proxy also the xsk_{reg,clear}_pool_at_qid via __netif_get_rx_queue_peer
such that when a virtual netdev picked a mapped rxq, the request gets
through to the real rxq in the physical netdev.
Change the function signatures for queue_id to unsigned int in order
to pass the queue_id parameter into __netif_get_rx_queue_peer. The
proxying is only relevant for queue_id < dev->real_num_rx_queues since
right now its only supported for rxqs.

Add a single device mode for netkit instead of netkit pairs. The primary
target for the paired devices is to connect network namespaces, of course,
and support has been implemented in projects like Cilium [0]. For the rxq
binding the plan is to support two main scenarios related to single device
mode:
* For the use-case of io_uring zero-copy, the control plane can either
set up a netkit pair where the peer device can perform rxq binding which
is then tied to the lifetime of the peer device, or the control plane
can use a regular netkit pair to connect the hostns to a Pod/container
and dynamically add/remove rxq bindings through a single device without
having to interrupt the device pair. In the case of io_uring, the memory
pool is used as skb non-linear pages, and thus the skb will go its way
through the regular stack into netkit. Things like the netkit policy when
no BPF is attached or skb scrubbing etc apply as-is in case the paired
devices are used, or if the backend memory is tied to the single device
and traffic goes through a paired device.
* For the use-case of AF_XDP, the control plane needs to use netkit in the
single device mode. The single device mode currently enforces only a
pass policy when no BPF is attached, and does not yet support BPF link
attachments for AF_XDP. skbs sent to that device get dropped at the
moment. Given AF_XDP operates at a lower layer of the stack tying this
to the netkit pair did not make sense. In future, the plan is to allow
BPF at the XDP layer which can: i) process traffic coming from the AF_XDP
application (e.g. QEMU with AF_XDP backend) to filter egress traffic or
to push selected egress traffic up to the single netkit device to the
local stack (e.g. DHCP requests), and ii) vice-versa skbs sent to the
single netkit into the AF_XDP application (e.g. DHCP replies). Also,
the control-plane can dynamically add/remove rxq bindings for the single
netkit device without having to interrupt (e.g. down/up cycle) the main
netkit pair for the Pod which has traffic going in and out.

Instead of a comment, just use two cachline groups to document the intent
for members often accessed in fast or slow path.

From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
Implement rtnl_link_ops->alloc that allows the number of rx queues to be
set when netkit is created. By default, netkit has only a single rxq (and
single txq). The number of queues is deliberately not allowed to be changed
via ethtool -L and is fixed for the lifetime of a netkit instance.
For netkit device creation, numrxqueues with larger than one rxq can be
specified. These rxqs are then mappable to real rxqs in physical netdevs:
ip link add type netkit peer numrxqueues 64 # for device pair
ip link add numrxqueues 64 type netkit single # for single device
The limit of numrxqueues for netkit is currently set to 256, which allows
binding multiple real rxqs from physical netdevs.
The implementation of ndo_queue_create() adds a new rxq during the bind
queue operation. We allow to create queues either in single device mode or
for the case of dual device mode for the netkit peer device which gets
placed into the target network namespace. For dual device mode the bind
against the primary device does not make sense for the targeted use cases,
and therefore gets rejected.

From: David Wei <dw@davidwei.uk>
This adds the last missing bit to netkit for supporting io_uring with
zero-copy mode [0]. Up until this point it was not possible to consume
the latter out of containers or Kubernetes Pods where applications are
in their own network namespace.
Thus, as a last missing bit, implement ndo_queue_get_dma_dev() in netkit
to return the physical device of the real rxq for DMA. This allows memory
providers like io_uring zero-copy or devmem to bind to the physically
mapped rxq in netkit.
io_uring example with eth0 being a physical device with 16 queues where
netkit is bound to the last queue, iou-zcrx.c is binary from selftests.
Flow steering to that queue is based on the service VIP:port of the
server utilizing io_uring:
# ethtool -X eth0 start 0 equal 15
# ethtool -X eth0 start 15 equal 1 context new
# ethtool --config-ntuple eth0 flow-type tcp4 dst-ip 1.2.3.4 dst-port 5000 action 15
# ip netns add foo
# ip link add type netkit peer numrxqueues 2
# ./pyynl/cli.py --spec ~/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
--do bind-queue \
--json "{"src-ifindex": $(ifindex eth0), "src-queue-id": 15, \
"dst-ifindex": $(ifindex nk0), "queue-type": "rx"}"
{'dst-queue-id': 1}
# ip link set nk0 netns foo
# ip link set nk1 up
# ip netns exec foo ip link set lo up
# ip netns exec foo ip link set nk0 up
# ip netns exec foo ip addr add 1.2.3.4/32 dev nk0
[ ... setup routing etc to get external traffic into the netns ... ]
# ip netns exec foo ./iou-zcrx -s -p 5000 -i nk0 -q 1
Remote io_uring client:
# ./iou-zcrx -c -h 1.2.3.4 -p 5000 -l 12840 -z 65536
We have tested the above against a Broadcom BCM957504 (bnxt_en)
100G NIC, supporting TCP header/data split.
Similarly, this also works for devmem which we tested using ncdevmem:
# ip netns exec foo ./ncdevmem -s 1.2.3.4 -l -p 5000 -f nk0 -t 1 -q 1
And on the remote client:
# ./ncdevmem -s 1.2.3.4 -p 5000 -f eth0
For Cilium, the plan is to open up support for the various memory providers
for regular Kubernetes Pods when Cilium is configured with netkit datapath
mode.

Enable support for AF_XDP applications to operate on a netkit device.
The goal is that AF_XDP applications can natively consume AF_XDP
from network namespaces. The use-case from Cilium side is to support
Kubernetes KubeVirt VMs through QEMU's AF_XDP backend. KubeVirt is a
virtual machine management add-on for Kubernetes which aims to provide
a common ground for virtualization. KubeVirt spawns the VMs inside
Kubernetes Pods which reside in their own network namespace just like
regular Pods.
Raw QEMU AF_XDP backend example with eth0 being a physical device with
16 queues where netkit is bound to the last queue (for multi-queue RSS
context can be used if supported by the driver):
# ethtool -X eth0 start 0 equal 15
# ethtool -X eth0 start 15 equal 1 context new
# ethtool --config-ntuple eth0 flow-type ether \
src 00:00:00:00:00:00 \
src-mask ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff \
dst $mac dst-mask 00:00:00:00:00:00 \
proto 0 proto-mask 0xffff action 15
[ ... setup BPF/XDP prog on eth0 to steer into shared xsk map ... ]
# ip netns add foo
# ip link add numrxqueues 2 nk type netkit single
# ./pyynl/cli.py --spec ~/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml \
--do bind-queue \
--json "{"src-ifindex": $(ifindex eth0), "src-queue-id": 15, \
"dst-ifindex": $(ifindex nk), "queue-type": "rx"}"
{'dst-queue-id': 1}
# ip link set nk netns foo
# ip netns exec foo ip link set lo up
# ip netns exec foo ip link set nk up
# ip netns exec foo qemu-system-x86_64 \
-kernel $kernel \
-drive file=${image_name},index=0,media=disk,format=raw \
-append "root=/dev/sda rw console=ttyS0" \
-cpu host \
-m $memory \
-enable-kvm \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0,mac=$mac \
-netdev af-xdp,ifname=nk,id=net0,mode=native,queues=1,start-queue=1,inhibit=on,map-path=$dir/xsks_map \
-nographic
We have tested the above against a dual-port Nvidia ConnectX-6 (mlx5)
100G NIC with successful network connectivity out of QEMU. An earlier
iteration of this work was presented at LSF/MM/BPF [0].
For getting to a first starting point to connect all things with
KubeVirt, bind mounting the xsk map from Cilium into the VM launcher
Pod which acts as a regular Kubernetes Pod while not perfect, is not
a big problem given its out of reach from the application sitting
inside the VM (and some of the control plane aspects are baked in
the launcher Pod already), so the isolation barrier is still the VM.
Eventually the goal is to have a XDP/XSK redirect extension where
there is no need to have the xsk map, and the BPF program can just
derive the target xsk through the queue where traffic was received
on.
The exposure through netkit is because Cilium should not act as a
proxy handing out xsk sockets. Existing applications expect a netdev
from kernel side and should not need to rewrite just to implement
against a CNI's protocol. Also, all the memory should not be accounted
against Cilium but rather the application Pod itself which is consuming
AF_XDP. Further, on up/downgrades we expect the data plane to being
completely decoupled from the control plane; if Cilium would own the
sockets that would be disruptive. Another use-case which opens up and
is regularly asked from users would be to have DPDK applications on
top of AF_XDP in regular Kubernetes Pods.

Hmm, looks like syzkaller tried using batman_adv interface. The lock in the
xsk path uses netdev_lock_ops() which is why the assert hits. I'll change
netif_get_rx_queue_peer_locked() to check for netdev_need_ops_lock() in v3.

(Just to clarify: I now locally replaced the netdev_assert_locked() into using
netdev_ops_assert_locked() to address it.)
