I don't know that the use-case virtio XDP_TX is, but I still think we
should implement it for this virtio_net driver, as it allow easier
testing of XDP programs without physical HW.

BUT I do believe XDP_DROP and XDP_TX should be two different capabilities.

I can easily imagine that an older driver only wants to implement the
XDP_DROP facility. The reason is that XDP_TX would require changing too
much driver code, which is a concern for an old, stable and time-proven
driver.

I can also imagine wanting to implement XDP_DROP on my OpenWRT home
router, which I don't think can get an extra HW TX queue for XDP_TX.

I even have a practical use-case for my OpenWRT home router.  I
experience a Windows machine being connected to my home network, it
caused some (WiFi) traffic storm that overloaded the small OpenWRT box,
so much that it couldn't even route packets for other machines
connected (on Ethernet).  This could also be an IoT device or an
infected machine participating in a DDoS attack.  I fairly quickly
identified the bad machine and disconnected it from the network, but
for e.g. conference or hotel networks is can be harder to identify and
disconnect offenders.  An XDP eBPF (ddos) filter could allow the sysadm
to "virtually" disconnect a certain MAC address, and restore operation.

Even without XDP_TX support, adjust_head() must be supported.  The
XDP_PASS action still requires ability to modify the packet.

Almost :)
For the hardware NIC driver, the receive just follows the "normal" path.
It creates an skb for the packet and passes it to the net core RX. Then the
skb is delivered to tap/macvtap. The later converts the skb to IOVs and
IOVs are pushed to the guest address space.

On the guest side, virtio-net sees these IOVs as a part of its RX ring, it
creates an skb for the packet and passes the skb to the net core of the
guest.

That could be quite a few drivers that will need to implement "TX-raw" then
:)
In general case, the virtual NIC may be connected to the physical network
via long chain of virtual devices such as bridge, veth and ovs.
Actually, because of that we wanted to concentrate on macvtap...

I think I should sleep on it a bit more :)
Probably we can add page_pool "backend" implementation to vhost...

Sorry, that should have been: How does it not leak if auditd exits
abnormally without sending a shutdown message, but no message is sent on
the queue to trigger an error before the net namespace exits?

Hello Giuseppe

I'm not sure what you mean.

Yes, when setting "snps,aal",
the code is correct for all versions of the IP.

However, "snps,axi_all" seems to just be dead code.
Try git grep in the whole tree.
So I still think that my patch is valid.

I made some quick on-the-surface static checkers etc rub on the new

the bits in your github bnxt_re branch), there are bunch (tons...) of
smatch [1] and sparse [2]
complaints along with few checkpatch [3] things too.  So... addressing
them before this goes upstream?

BTW net-next's drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/bnxt (where you put the
pre patches for the
RDMA driver) is pretty much clean of that

ok I have seen these patches applied, I had just a minor concern about
the  failure when DMA configuration is missing.
In these years, I have noticed that, for this kind of HW, default DMA
configuration is usually good to have a driver working. AHB, AXI
parameters can be provided to have a best tuning or to fix know issues
on some platforms. So IMO, we should relax the check with a warning.
Please, consider that, the stmmac also supports very old MAC10/100
versions where the DMA configuration was often never passed.

Can you confirm you are using the 4.xxa version?

This doesn't match with Alex's experiments on ARM platforms.

as said, welcome patches.

Basically, the default tuning of coalescence parameters comes from
ST platform experiences. I mean, we tuned to driver to have good
performance and saving CPU on SH4 (UP) and ARM (SMP) systems.
In these years, these default was accepted but, if today we need
to change something welcome effort. On my side, I can try to
perform some bench to see if I have regressions on not.

Do not expect to get many improvements to play with the HW watchdog
due to the poor granularity of the Receive Interrupt Watchdog Timer
Count.

Hello Niklas, Alex,

my fault and a step behind... Current code is OK
when manage the AAL that, although it is passed from
the axi structure, it is always used to program,
for all the chip versions, the writable bit inside the
DMA_BUS_MODE register.
So I guess no extra patch is needed.

V2 port number is defined in ib_verbs.h.  i will include this in the

I agree that some of the counters exported by this patch set, tx and
rx bytes/pkts etc, can be exported
through the core counters. i will try adding  this support in v3, if
not, will post as a separate patch.
debugfs was introduced more for the future, in case any HW specific
data needs to be displayed.
As of now, it tracks only the count of resources( CQ/MR/QPs) active at
any given point. So its ok to
skip this patch from this series.

This file contains the Macro defines for the FW/HW structures and are

I just noticed net-next got closed few days ago. I'll resend after it
opens again.  Nevertheless, review is appreciated.

Yes, you are correct.  We need there a logical or on the results of each
comparison to the return code rather than bit-wise or-ing the result
codes together first to save a step.

Hmmm, I seem to remember it not returning the return code and I thought
I had changed it to do so, but I see now that it was already there.
Agreed, I needlessly duplicated that error handling.

Also correct about -EPERM now that I check back to the intent of commit
32a1dbaece7e ("audit: try harder to send to auditd upon netlink
failure")

Yup.

I'll work through this before I post another patch...

I will remove this warning in v3 patch set.

The above two are false positives, since locking and unlocking are
handled in two separate functions. This is a wrapper to lock/unlock
both SQ and RQ CQ locks. Functionally it is ok  since
bnxt_qplib_unlock_cqs is called just after the critical section and
both locks are freed in order. I think we can ignore this warning.

At this point, compile and boot, and I'm able to compile and run the
supplied test code without any issues.
