net: Prevent RPS table overwrite of active flows
This series splits the original RPS patch [1] into two patches for
net-next. It also addresses a kernel test robot warning by defining
rps_flow_is_active() only when aRFS is enabled. I tested v3 with
four builds and reboots: two for [PATCH 1/2] with aRFS enabled &
disabled, and two for [PATCH 2/2]. There are no code changes in v4
and v5, only documentation. Patch v6 has one line change to keep
'hash' field under #ifdef, and was test built with aRFS=on and
aRFS=off. The same two builds were done for v7, along with 15m load
testing with aRFS=on to ensure the new changes are correct.
The first patch prevents RPS table overwrite for active flows thereby
improving aRFS stability.
The second patch caches hash & flow_id in get_rps_cpu() to avoid
recalculating it in set_rps_cpu().

This patch fixes an issue where two different flows on the same RXq
produce the same hash resulting in continuous flow overwrites.
Flow #1: A packet for Flow #1 comes in, kernel calls the steering
function. The driver gives back a filter id. The kernel saves
this filter id in the selected slot. Later, the driver's
service task checks if any filters have expired and then
installs the rule for Flow #1.
Flow #2: A packet for Flow #2 comes in. It goes through the same steps.
But this time, the chosen slot is being used by Flow #1. The
driver gives a new filter id and the kernel saves it in the
same slot. When the driver's service task runs, it runs through
all the flows, checks if Flow #1 should be expired, the kernel
returns True as the slot has a different filter id, and then
the driver installs the rule for Flow #2.
Flow #1: Another packet for Flow #1 comes in. The same thing repeats.
The slot is overwritten with a new filter id for Flow #1.
This causes a repeated cycle of flow programming for missed packets,
wasting CPU cycles while not improving performance. This problem happens
at higher rates when the RPS table is small, but tests show it still
happens even with 12,000 connections and an RPS size of 16K per queue
(global table size = 144x16K = 64K).
This patch prevents overwriting an rps_dev_flow entry if it is active.
The intention is that it is better to do aRFS for the first flow instead
of hurting all flows on the same hash. Without this, two (or more) flows
on one RX queue with the same hash can keep overwriting each other. This
causes the driver to reprogram the flow repeatedly.
Changes:
1. Add a new 'hash' field to struct rps_dev_flow.
2. Add rps_flow_is_active(): a helper function to check if a flow is
active or not, extracted from rps_may_expire_flow(). It is further
simplified as per reviewer feedback.
3. In set_rps_cpu():
- Avoid overwriting by programming a new filter if:
- The slot is not in use, or
- The slot is in use but the flow is not active, or
- The slot has an active flow with the same hash, but target CPU
differs.
- Save the hash in the rps_dev_flow entry.
4. rps_may_expire_flow(): Use earlier extracted rps_flow_is_active().
Testing & results:
- Driver: ice (E810 NIC), Kernel: net-next
- #CPUs = #RXq = 144 (1:1)
- Number of flows: 12K
- Eight RPS settings from 256 to 32768. Though RPS=256 is not ideal,
it is still sufficient to cover 12K flows (256*144 rx-queues = 64K
global table slots)
- Global Table Size = 144 * RPS (effectively equal to 256 * RPS)
- Each RPS test duration = 8 mins (org code) + 8 mins (new code).

For some odd reason we were very jealous about the value of the EMAC
clock register from the syscon block, insisting on a reset value and
only doing read-modify-write operations on that register, even though we
pretty much know the register layout.
This already led to a basically redundant entry for the H6, which only
differs by that value. We seem to have the same situation with the new
A523 SoC, which again is compatible to the A64, but has a different
syscon reset value.
Drop any assumptions about that value, and set or clear the bits that we
want to program, from scratch (starting with a value of 0). For the
remove() implementation, we just turn on the POWERDOWN bit, and deselect
the internal PHY, which mimics the existing code.

Convert the ->flowic_tos field of struct flowi_common from __u8 to
dscp_t, rename it ->flowic_dscp and propagate these changes to struct
flowi and struct flowi4.
We've had several bugs in the past where ECN bits could interfere with
IPv4 routing, because these bits were not properly cleared when setting
->flowi4_tos. These bugs should be fixed now and the dscp_t type has
been introduced to ensure that variables carrying DSCP values don't
accidentally have any ECN bits set. Several variables and structure
fields have been converted to dscp_t already, but the main IPv4 routing
structure, struct flowi4, is still using a __u8. To avoid any future
regression, this patch converts it to dscp_t.
There are many users to convert at once. Fortunately, around half of
->flowi4_tos users already have a dscp_t value at hand, which they
currently convert to __u8 using inet_dscp_to_dsfield(). For all of
these users, we just need to drop that conversion.
But, although we try to do the __u8 <-> dscp_t conversions at the
boundaries of the network or of user space, some places still store
TOS/DSCP variables as __u8 in core networking code. Those can hardly be
converted either because the data structure is part of UAPI or because
the same variable or field is also used for handling ECN in other parts
of the code. In all of these cases where we don't have a dscp_t
variable at hand, we need to use inet_dsfield_to_dscp() when
interacting with ->flowi4_dscp.

====================
Expose burst period for devlink health reporter
Shahar writes:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Currently, the devlink health reporter initiates the grace period
immediately after recovering an error, which blocks further recovery
attempts until the grace period concludes. Since additional errors
are not generally expected during this short interval, any new error
reported during the grace period is not only rejected but also causes
the reporter to enter an error state that requires manual intervention.
This approach poses a problem in scenarios where a single root cause
triggers multiple related errors in quick succession - for example,
a PCI issue affecting multiple hardware queues. Because these errors
are closely related and occur rapidly, it is more effective to handle
them together rather than handling only the first one reported and
blocking any subsequent recovery attempts. Furthermore, setting the
reporter to an error state in this context can be misleading, as these
multiple errors are manifestations of a single underlying issue, making
it unlike the general case where additional errors are not expected
during the grace period.
To resolve this, introduce a configurable burst period attribute to the
devlink health reporter. This period starts when the first error
is recovered and lasts for a user-defined duration. Once this error
burst period expires, the grace period begins. After the grace period
ends, a new reported error will start the same flow again.
Timeline summary:
----|--------|------------------------------/----------------------/--
error is error is burst period grace period
reported recovered (recoveries allowed) (recoveries blocked)
With burst period, create a time window during which recovery attempts
are permitted, allowing all reported errors to be handled sequentially
before the grace period starts. Once the grace period begins, it
prevents any further error recoveries until it ends.
When burst period is set to 0, current behavior is preserved.
Design alternatives considered:
1. Recover all queues upon any error:
A brute-force approach that recovers all queues on any error.
While simple, it is overly aggressive and disrupts unaffected queues
unnecessarily. Also, because this is handled entirely within the
driver, it leads to a driver-specific implementation rather than a
generic one.
2. Per-queue reporter:
This design would isolate recovery handling per SQ or RQ, effectively
removing interdependencies between queues. While conceptually clean,
it introduces significant scalability challenges as the number of
queues grows, as well as synchronization challenges across multiple
reporters.
3. Error aggregation with delayed handling:
Errors arriving during the grace period are saved and processed after
it ends. While addressing the issue of related errors whose recovery
is aborted as grace period started, this adds complexity due to
synchronization needs and contradicts the assumption that no errors
should occur during a healthy system’s grace period. Also, this
breaks the important role of grace period in preventing an infinite
loop of immediate error detection following recovery. In such cases
we want to stop.
4. Allowing a fixed burst of errors before starting grace period:
Allows a set number of recoveries before the grace period begins.
However, it also requires limiting the error reporting window.
To keep the design simple, the burst threshold becomes redundant.
The burst period design was chosen for its simplicity and precision in
addressing the problem at hand. It effectively captures the temporal
correlation of related errors and aligns with the original intent of
the grace period as a stabilization window where further errors are
unexpected, and if they do occur, they indicate an abnormal system
state.

System errors can sometimes cause multiple errors to be reported
to the TX reporter at the same time. For instance, lost interrupts
may cause several SQs to time out simultaneously. When dev_watchdog
notifies the driver for that, it iterates over all SQs to trigger
recovery for the timed-out ones, via TX health reporter.
However, grace period allows only one recovery at a time, so only
the first SQ recovers while others remain blocked. Since no further
recoveries are allowed during the grace period, subsequent errors
cause the reporter to enter an ERROR state, requiring manual
intervention.
To address this, set the TX reporter's default burst period
to 0.5 second. This allows the reporter to detect and handle all
timed-out SQs within this window before initiating the grace period.
To account for the possibility of a similar issue in the RX reporter,
its default burst period is also configured.
Additionally, while here, align the TX definition prefix with the RX,
as these are used only in EN driver.

Enable configuration of the burst period — a time window starting
from the first error recovery, during which the reporter allows
recovery attempts for each reported error.
This feature is helpful when a single underlying issue causes multiple
errors, as it delays the start of the grace period to allow sufficient
time for recovering all related errors. For example, if multiple TX
queues time out simultaneously, a sufficient burst period could allow
all affected TX queues to be recovered within that window. Without this
period, only the first TX queue that reports a timeout will undergo
recovery, while the remaining TX queues will be blocked once the grace
period begins.
Configuration example:
$ devlink health set pci/0000:00:09.0 reporter tx burst_period 500

Currently, the devlink health reporter starts the grace period
immediately after handling an error, blocking any further recoveries
until it finished.
However, when a single root cause triggers multiple errors in a short
time frame, it is desirable to treat them as a bulk of errors and to
allow their recoveries, avoiding premature blocking of subsequent
related errors, and reducing the risk of inconsistent or incomplete
error handling.
To address this, introduce a configurable burst period for devlink
health reporter. Start this period when the first error is handled,
and allow recovery attempts for reported errors during this window.
Once burst period expires, begin the grace period to block further
recoveries until it concludes.
Timeline summary:
----|--------|------------------------------/----------------------/--
error is error is burst period grace period
reported recovered (recoveries allowed) (recoveries blocked)
For calculating the burst period duration, use the same
last_recovery_ts as the grace period. Update it on recovery only
when the burst period is inactive (either disabled or at the
first error).
This patch implements the framework for the burst period and
effectively sets its value to 0 at reporter creation, so the current
behavior remains unchanged, which ensures backward compatibility.
A downstream patch will make the burst period configurable.

tied to the reporter's behavior and recovery policy. It simplifies the
signature of devlink_health_reporter_create() and its internal helper
functions. It also centralizes the reporter configuration at the ops
structure, preparing the groundwork for a downstream patch that will
introduce a devlink health reporter burst period attribute whose

fixed_phy_register() creates and registers the phy_device. To be
symmetric, we should not only unregister, but also free the phy_device
in fixed_phy_unregister(). This allows to simplify code in users.
Note wrt of_phy_deregister_fixed_link():
put_device(&phydev->mdio.dev) and phy_device_free(phydev) are identical.

We have only two users of fixed_phy_add(), both use address 0 and
ignore the return value. So simplify fixed_phy_add() accordingly.
Whilst at it, constify the fixed_phy_status configs.
Note:
fixed_phy_add() is a legacy function which shouldn't be used in new
code, as it's use may be problematic:
- No check whether a fixed phy exists already at the given address
- If fixed_phy_register() is called afterwards by any other driver,
then it will also use phy_addr 0, because fixed_phy_add() ignores
the ida which manages address assignment
Drivers using a fixed phy created by fixed_phy_add() in platform code,
should dynamically create a fixed phy with fixed_phy_register()
instead.

As noted in the kernel documentation, open-coded multiplication in
allocator arguments is discouraged because it can lead to integer overflow.
Use devm_kcalloc() to gain built-in overflow protection, making memory
allocation safer when calculating allocation size compared to explicit
multiplication.

On soft-reboot, with a reset GPIO defined for an Aeonsemi PHY, the
special match_phy_device fails to correctly identify that the PHY
needs to load the firmware again.
This is caused by the fact that PHY ID is read BEFORE the PHY reset
GPIO (if present) is asserted, so we can be in the scenario where the
phydev have the previous PHY ID (with the PHY firmware loaded) but
after reset the generic AS21xxx PHY is present in the PHY ID registers.
To better handle this, skip reading the PHY ID register only for the PHY
that are not AS21xxx (by matching for the Aeonsemi Vendor) and always
read the PHY ID for the other case to handle both firmware already
loaded or an HW reset.

POWER8 support a maximum of 16 subcrq indirect descriptor entries per
H_SEND_SUB_CRQ_INDIRECT call, while POWER9 and newer hypervisors
support up to 128 entries. Increasing the max number of indirect
descriptor entries improves batching efficiency and reduces
hcall overhead, which enhances throughput under large workload on POWER9+.
Currently, ibmvnic driver always uses a fixed number of max indirect
descriptor entries (16). send_subcrq_indirect() treats all hypervisor
errors the same:
- Cleanup and Drop the entire batch of descriptors.
- Return an error to the caller.
- Rely on TCP/IP retransmissions to recover.
- If the hypervisor returns H_PARAMETER (e.g., because 128
entries are not supported on POWER8), the driver will continue
to drop batches, resulting in unnecessary packet loss.
In this patch:
Raise the default maximum indirect entries to 128 to improve ibmvnic
batching on morden platform. But also gracefully fall back to
16 entries for Power 8 systems.
Since there is no VIO interface to query the hypervisor’s supported
limit, vnic handles send_subcrq_indirect() H_PARAMETER errors:
- On first H_PARAMETER failure, log the failure context
- Reduce max_indirect_entries to 16 and allow the single batch to drop.
- Subsequent calls automatically use the correct lower limit,
avoiding repeated drops.
The goal is to optimizes performance on modern systems while handles
falling back for older POWER8 hypervisors.
Performance shows 40% improvements with MTU (1500) on largework load.

This patch replaces the rwlock with a spinlock for writers, and uses RCU
for readers.

- Readers use rcu_dereference_bh() under rcu_read_lock_bh().
