[ Upstream commit 5add2f7288468f35a374620dabf126c13baaea9c ]

The default ndo_get_iflink() implementation returns the current ifindex
of the netdev. But the overridden nsim_get_iflink() returns 0 if the
current nsim is not linked, breaking backwards compatibility for
userspace that depend on this behaviour.

Fix the problem by returning the current ifindex if not linked to a
peer.

<title>netdevsim: forward skbs from one connected port to another</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=9eb95228a74163e26d338913a5d61e571ea45307'/>
<id>urn:sha1:9eb95228a74163e26d338913a5d61e571ea45307</id>
<content type='text'>
Forward skbs sent from one netdevsim port to its connected netdevsim
port using dev_forward_skb, in a spirit similar to veth.

Add a tx_dropped variable to struct netdevsim, tracking the number of
skbs that could not be forwarded using dev_forward_skb().

The xmit() function accessing the peer ptr is protected by an RCU read
critical section. The rcu_read_lock() is functionally redundant as since
v5.0 all softirqs are implicitly RCU read critical sections; but it is
useful for human readers.

If another CPU is concurrently in nsim_destroy(), then it will first set
the peer ptr to NULL. This does not affect any existing readers that
dereferenced a non-NULL peer. Then, in unregister_netdevice(), there is
a synchronize_rcu() before the netdev is actually unregistered and
freed. This ensures that any readers i.e. xmit() that got a non-NULL
peer will complete before the netdev is freed.

Any readers after the RCU_INIT_POINTER() but before synchronize_rcu()
will dereference NULL, making it safe.

The codepath to nsim_destroy() and nsim_create() takes both the newly
added nsim_dev_list_lock and rtnl_lock. This makes it safe with
concurrent calls to linking two netdevsims together.

<content type='text'>
Add two netdevsim bus attribute to sysfs:
/sys/bus/netdevsim/link_device
/sys/bus/netdevsim/unlink_device

Writing "A M B N" to link_device will link netdevsim M in netnsid A with
netdevsim N in netnsid B.

Writing "A M" to unlink_device will unlink netdevsim M in netnsid A from
its peer, if any.

rtnl_lock is taken to ensure nothing changes during the linking.

PHC gets initialized in nsim_init_netdevsim(), which
is only called if (nsim_dev_port_is_pf()).

Create a counterpart of nsim_init_netdevsim() and
move the mock_phc_destroy() there.

This fixes a crash trying to destroy netdevsim with
VFs instantiated, as caught by running the devlink.sh test:

<id>urn:sha1:35da47fe1c4766451def03a1b4f59c6b13a9373c</id>
<content type='text'>
To be able to use netdevsim for tc-testing with an offloaded tc-taprio
schedule, it needs to report a PTP clock (which it now does), and to
accept ndo_setup_tc(TC_SETUP_QDISC_TAPRIO) calls.

Since netdevsim has no packet I/O, this doesn't do anything intelligent,
it only allows taprio offload code paths to go through some level of
automated testing.

<content type='text'>
I'd like to make netdevsim offload tc-taprio, but currently, this Qdisc
emits a ETHTOOL_GET_TS_INFO call to the driver to make sure that it has
a PTP clock, so that it is reasonably capable of offloading the schedule.

By using the mock PHC driver, that becomes possible.

Hardware timestamping is not necessary, and netdevsim does not support
packet I/O anyway.

When the kernel is compiled with MACsec support, add the
NETIF_F_HW_MACSEC feature to netdevsim devices and implement
macsec_ops.

To allow easy testing of failure from the device, support is limited
to 3 SecY's per netdevsim device, and 1 RXSC per SecY.

v2:
 - nsim_macsec_add_secy, return -ENOSPC if secy_count isn't full but
   we can't find an empty slot (Simon Horman)
 - add sci_to_cpu to make sparse happy (Simon Horman)
 - remove set but not used secy variable (kernel test robot and

<title>drivers: net: turn on XDP features</title>

<id>urn:sha1:66c0e13ad236c74ea88c7c1518f3cef7f372e3da</id>
<content type='text'>
A summary of the flags being set for various drivers is given below.
Note that XDP_F_REDIRECT_TARGET and XDP_F_FRAG_TARGET are features
that can be turned off and on at runtime. This means that these flags
may be set and unset under RTNL lock protection by the driver. Hence,
READ_ONCE must be used by code loading the flag value.

Also, these flags are not used for synchronization against the availability
of XDP resources on a device. It is merely a hint, and hence the read
may race with the actual teardown of XDP resources on the device. This
may change in the future, e.g. operations taking a reference on the XDP
resources of the driver, and in turn inhibiting turning off this flag.
However, for now, it can only be used as a hint to check whether device
supports becoming a redirection target.

Turn 'hw-offload' feature flag on for:
 - netronome (nfp)
 - netdevsim.

Turn 'native' and 'zerocopy' features flags on for:
 - intel (i40e, ice, ixgbe, igc)
 - mellanox (mlx5).
 - stmmac
 - netronome (nfp)

Turn 'native' features flags on for:
 - amazon (ena)
 - broadcom (bnxt)
 - freescale (dpaa, dpaa2, enetc)
 - funeth
 - intel (igb)
 - marvell (mvneta, mvpp2, octeontx2)
 - mellanox (mlx4)
 - mtk_eth_soc
 - qlogic (qede)
 - sfc
 - socionext (netsec)
 - ti (cpsw)
 - tap
 - tsnep
 - veth
 - xen
 - virtio_net.

Turn 'basic' (tx, pass, aborted and drop) features flags on for:
 - netronome (nfp)
 - cavium (thunder)
 - hyperv.

Turn 'redirect_target' feature flag on for:
 - amanzon (ena)
 - broadcom (bnxt)
 - freescale (dpaa, dpaa2)
 - intel (i40e, ice, igb, ixgbe)
 - ti (cpsw)
 - marvell (mvneta, mvpp2)
 - sfc
 - socionext (netsec)

 - mellanox (mlx5)
