net: ethtool: Introduce a command to list PHYs on an interface

2024-01-01T18:38:57Z

As we have the ability to track the PHYs connected to a net_device through the link_topology, we can expose this list to userspace. This allows userspace to use these identifiers for phy-specific commands and take the decision of which PHY to target by knowing the link topology. Add PHY_GET and PHY_DUMP, which can be a filtered DUMP operation to list devices on only one interface. Signed-off-by: Maxime Chevallier Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethtool: Allow passing a phy index for some commands

2024-01-01T18:38:57Z

Some netlink commands are target towards ethernet PHYs, to control some of their features. As there's several such commands, add the ability to pass a PHY index in the ethnl request, which will populate the generic ethnl_req_info with the relevant phydev when the command targets a PHY.

net: ethtool: add support for symmetric-xor RSS hash

2023-12-14T06:07:16Z

Symmetric RSS hash functions are beneficial in applications that monitor both Tx and Rx packets of the same flow (IDS, software firewalls, ..etc). Getting all traffic of the same flow on the same RX queue results in higher CPU cache efficiency. A NIC that supports "symmetric-xor" can achieve this RSS hash symmetry by XORing the source and destination fields and pass the values to the RSS hash algorithm. The user may request RSS hash symmetry for a specific algorithm, via: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc symmetric-xor or turn symmetry off (asymmetric) by: # ethtool -X eth0 hfunc The specific fields for each flow type should then be specified as usual via: # ethtool -N|-U eth0 rx-flow-hash s|d|f|n Reviewed-by: Wojciech Drewek Signed-off-by: Ahmed Zaki Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231213003321.605376-4-ahmed.zaki@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

Now that the current timestamp is saved in a variable lets add the ETHTOOL_MSG_TS_SET ethtool netlink socket to make it selectable. Signed-off-by: Kory Maincent Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethtool: Add a command to list available time stamping layers

net: ethtool: Add a command to expose current time stamping layer

2023-11-18T14:52:57Z

Time stamping on network packets may happen either in the MAC or in the PHY, but not both. In preparation for making the choice selectable, expose both the current layers via ethtool. In accordance with the kernel implementation as it stands, the current layer will always read as "phy" when a PHY time stamping device is present. Future patches will allow changing the current layer administratively. Signed-off-by: Kory Maincent Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ethtool: correct MAX attribute value for stats

2023-06-12T07:50:48Z

When compiling YNL generated code compiler complains about array-initializer-out-of-bounds. Turns out the MAX value for STATS_GRP uses the value for STATS. This may lead to random corruptions in user space (kernel itself doesn't use this value as it never parses stats).

ethtool: Add support for configuring tx_push_buf_len

2023-03-28T02:49:58Z

This attribute, which is part of ethtool's ring param configuration allows the user to specify the maximum number of the packet's payload that can be written directly to the device.
