* docs: netdev: try to guide people on dealing with silenceJakub Kicinski2023-11-211-3/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There has been more than a few threads which went idle before the merge window and now people came back to them and started asking about next steps. We currently tell people to be patient and not to repost too often. Our "not too often", however, is still a few orders of magnitude faster than other subsystems. Or so I feel after hearing people talk about review rates at LPC. Clarify in the doc that if the discussion went idle for a week on netdev, 95% of the time there's no point waiting longer.

It is also frustrating for the commenters, as they might think their review got ignored or they have to dig up new versions from the archive manually. So encourage patch submitters to make sure that all commenters get notified also when no Reviewed-by was issued yet.

By adding this to the kernel as documentation we can more easily point to it e.g. from stable emails about failed backports, as well as allow the community to modify it over time if necessary. I've added this under process/ since it also has process/applying-patches.rst. Another interesting document is maintainer/rebasing-and-merging.rst which maybe should eventually refer to this one, but I'm leaving that as a future cleanup.

Increase single TCP flow performance on a 200Gbit NIC by 20% (100Gbit -> 120Gbit). - The Fair Queuing (FQ) packet scheduler: - add built-in 3 band prio / WRR scheduling - support bypass if the qdisc is mostly idle (5% speed up for TCP RR) - improve inactive flow reporting - optimize the layout of structures for better cache locality - Support TCP Authentication Option (RFC 5925, TCP-AO), a more modern replacement for the old MD5 option. - Add more retransmission timeout (RTO) related statistics to TCP_INFO. - Support sending fragmented skbs over vsock sockets. - Make sure we send SIGPIPE for vsock sockets if socket was shutdown(). - Add sysctl for ignoring lower limit on lifetime in Router Advertisement PIO, based on an in-progress IETF draft. - Add sysctl to control activation of TCP ping-pong mode. - Add sysctl to make connection timeout in MPTCP configurable. - Support rcvlowat and notsent_lowat on MPTCP sockets, to help apps limit the number of wakeups. - Support netlink GET for MDB (multicast forwarding), allowing user space to request a single MDB entry instead of dumping the entire table. - Support selective FDB flushing in the VXLAN tunnel driver. - Allow limiting learned FDB entries in bridges, prevent OOM attacks. - Allow controlling via configfs netconsole targets which were created via the kernel cmdline at boot, rather than via configfs at runtime. - Support multiple PTP timestamp event queue readers with different filters. - MCTP over I3C. BPF: - Add new veth-like netdevice where BPF program defines the logic of the xmit routine. It can operate in L3 and L2 mode. - Support exceptions - allow asserting conditions which should never be true but are hard for the verifier to infer. With some extra flexibility around handling of the exit / failure: https://lwn.net/Articles/938435/ - Add support for local per-cpu kptr, allow allocating and storing per-cpu objects in maps. Access to those objects operates on the value for the current CPU. This allows to deprecate local one-off implementations of per-CPU storage like BPF_MAP_TYPE_PERCPU_CGROUP_STORAGE maps. - Extend cgroup BPF sockaddr hooks for UNIX sockets. The use case is for systemd to re-implement the LogNamespace feature which allows running multiple instances of systemd-journald to process the logs of different services. - Enable open-coded task_vma iteration, after maple tree conversion made it hard to directly walk VMAs in tracing programs. - Add open-coded task, css_task and css iterator support. One of the use cases is customizable OOM victim selection via BPF. - Allow source address selection with bpf_*_fib_lookup(). - Add ability to pin BPF timer to the current CPU. - Prevent creation of infinite loops by combining tail calls and fentry/fexit programs. - Add missed stats for kprobes to retrieve the number of missed kprobe executions and subsequent executions of BPF programs. - Inherit system settings for CPU security mitigations. - Add BPF v4 CPU instruction support for arm32 and s390x. Changes to common code: - overflow: add DEFINE_FLEX() for on-stack definition of structs with flexible array members. - Process doc update with more guidance for reviewers. Driver API: - Simplify locking in WiFi (cfg80211 and mac80211 layers), use wiphy mutex in most places and remove a lot of smaller locks. - Create a common DPLL configuration API. Allow configuring and querying state of PLL circuits used for clock syntonization, in network time distribution. - Unify fragmented and full page allocation APIs in page pool code. Let drivers be ignorant of PAGE_SIZE. - Rework PHY state machine to avoid races with calls to phy_stop(). - Notify DSA drivers of MAC address changes on user ports, improve correctness of offloads which depend on matching port MAC addresses. - Allow antenna control on injected WiFi frames. - Reduce the number of variants of napi_schedule(). - Simplify error handling when composing devlink health messages. Misc: - A lot of KCSAN data race "fixes", from Eric. - A lot of __counted_by() annotations, from Kees. - A lot of strncpy -> strscpy and printf format fixes. - Replace master/slave terminology with conduit/user in DSA drivers. - Handful of KUnit tests for netdev and WiFi core. Removed: - AppleTalk COPS. - AppleTalk ipddp. - TI AR7 CPMAC Ethernet driver.

In terms of lines, as usual, the 'alloc' version upgrade accounts for most of them. Toolchain and infrastructure: - Upgrade to Rust 1.73.0 This time around, due to how the kernel and Rust schedules have aligned, there are two upgrades in fact. They contain the fixes for a few issues we reported to the Rust project. In addition, a few cleanups indicated by the upgraded compiler or possible thanks to it. For instance, the compiler now detects redundant explicit links. - A couple changes to the Rust 'Makefile' so that it can be used with toybox tools, allowing Rust to be used in the Android kernel build. x86: - Enable IBT if enabled in C Documentation: - Add "The Rust experiment" section to the Rust index page MAINTAINERS: - Add Maintainer Entry Profile field ('P:'). - Update our 'W:' field to point to the webpage we have been building this year" * tag 'rust-6.7' of https://github.com/Rust-for-Linux/linux: docs: rust: add "The Rust experiment" section x86: Enable IBT in Rust if enabled in C rust: Use grep -Ev rather than relying on GNU grep rust: Use awk instead of recent xargs rust: upgrade to Rust 1.73.0 rust: print: use explicit link in documentation rust: task: remove redundant explicit link rust: kernel: remove `#[allow(clippy::new_ret_no_self)]` MAINTAINERS: add Maintainer Entry Profile field for Rust MAINTAINERS: update Rust webpage rust: upgrade to Rust 1.72.1 rust: arc: add explicit `drop()` around `Box::from_raw()`

See the upgrade policy [2] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized. Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list. Please see [3] for details. # Required changes For the upgrade, the following changes are required: - Allow `internal_features` for `feature(compiler_builtins)` since now Rust warns about using internal compiler and standard library features (similar to how it also warns about incomplete ones) [4]. - A cleanup for a documentation link thanks to a new `rustdoc` lint. See previous commits for details. - A need to make an intra-doc link to a macro explicit, due to a change in behavior in `rustdoc`. See previous commits for details. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach).

So recommend against it. Reviewed-by: Martin Habets <habetsm.xilinx@gmail.com> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230823154922.1162644-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

This was fixed in bindgen 0.62.0. Therefore, upgrade bindgen to a more recent version, 0.65.1, to support LLVM 16. Since bindgen 0.58.0 changed the `--{white,black}list-*` flags to `--{allow,block}list-*` [3], update them on our side too. In addition, bindgen 0.61.0 moved its CLI utility into a binary crate called `bindgen-cli` [4]. Thus update the installation command in the Quick Start guide. Moreover, bindgen 0.61.0 changed the default functionality to bind `size_t` to `usize` [5] and added the `--no-size_t-is-usize` flag to not bind `size_t` as `usize`. Then bindgen 0.65.0 removed the `--size_t-is-usize` flag [6]. Thus stop passing the flag to bindgen. Finally, bindgen 0.61.0 added support for the `noreturn` attribute (in its different forms) [7]. Thus remove the infinite loop in our Rust panic handler after calling `BUG()`, since bindgen now correctly generates a `BUG()` binding that returns `!` instead of `()`.

See the upgrade policy [1] and the comments on the first upgrade in commit 3ed03f4da06e ("rust: upgrade to Rust 1.68.2"). # Unstable features No unstable features (that we use) were stabilized. Therefore, the only unstable feature allowed to be used outside the `kernel` crate is still `new_uninit`, though other code to be upstreamed may increase the list. Please see [2] for details. # Required changes For the upgrade, this patch requires the following changes: - Removal of the `__rust_*` allocator functions, together with the addition of the `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable` static. See [3] for details. - Some more compiler builtins added due to `<f{32,64}>::midpoint()` that got added in Rust 1.71 [4]. # `alloc` upgrade and reviewing The vast majority of changes are due to our `alloc` fork being upgraded at once. There are two kinds of changes to be aware of: the ones coming from upstream, which we should follow as closely as possible, and the updates needed in our added fallible APIs to keep them matching the newer infallible APIs coming from upstream. Instead of taking a look at the diff of this patch, an alternative approach is reviewing a diff of the changes between upstream `alloc` and the kernel's. This allows to easily inspect the kernel additions only, especially to check if the fallible methods we already have still match the infallible ones in the new version coming from upstream. Another approach is reviewing the changes introduced in the additions in the kernel fork between the two versions. This is useful to spot potentially unintended changes to our additions. To apply these approaches, one may follow steps similar to the following to generate a pair of patches that show the differences between upstream Rust and the kernel (for the subset of `alloc` we use) before and after applying this patch: # Get the difference with respect to the old version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > old.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc # Apply this patch. git -C linux am rust-upgrade.patch # Get the difference with respect to the new version. git -C rust checkout $(linux/scripts/min-tool-version.sh rustc) git -C linux ls-tree -r --name-only HEAD -- rust/alloc | cut -d/ -f3- | grep -Fv README.md | xargs -IPATH cp rust/library/alloc/src/PATH linux/rust/alloc/PATH git -C linux diff --patch-with-stat --summary -R > new.patch git -C linux restore rust/alloc Now one may check the `new.patch` to take a look at the additions (first approach) or at the difference between those two patches (second approach). For the latter, a side-by-side tool is recommended.
