Note that ext4 will replay the journal (and + thus write to the partition) even when mounted "read only". The mount + options "ro,noload" can be used to prevent writes to the filesystem. + + journal_checksum + Enable checksumming of the journal transactions. This will allow the + recovery code in e2fsck and the kernel to detect corruption in the + kernel. It is a compatible change and will be ignored by older + kernels. + + journal_async_commit + Commit block can be written to disk without waiting for descriptor + blocks. If enabled older kernels cannot mount the device. This will + enable 'journal_checksum' internally. + + journal_path=path, journal_dev=devnum + When the external journal device's major/minor numbers have changed, + these options allow the user to specify the new journal location. The + journal device is identified through either its new major/minor numbers + encoded in devnum, or via a path to the device. + + norecovery, noload + Don't load the journal on mounting. Note that if the filesystem was + not unmounted cleanly, skipping the journal replay will lead to the + filesystem containing inconsistencies that can lead to any number of + problems. + + data=journal + All data are committed into the journal prior to being written into the + main file system. Enabling this mode will disable delayed allocation + and O_DIRECT support. + + data=ordered (*) + All data are forced directly out to the main file system prior to its + metadata being committed to the journal. + + data=writeback + Data ordering is not preserved, data may be written into the main file + system after its metadata has been committed to the journal. + + commit=nrsec (*) + Ext4 can be told to sync all its data and metadata every 'nrsec' + seconds. The default value is 5 seconds. This means that if you lose + your power, you will lose as much as the latest 5 seconds of work (your + filesystem will not be damaged though, thanks to the journaling). This + default value (or any low value) will hurt performance, but it's good + for data-safety. Setting it to 0 will have the same effect as leaving + it at the default (5 seconds). Setting it to very large values will + improve performance. + + barrier=<0|1(*)>, barrier(*), nobarrier + This enables/disables the use of write barriers in the jbd code. + barrier=0 disables, barrier=1 enables. This also requires an IO stack + which can support barriers, and if jbd gets an error on a barrier + write, it will disable again with a warning. Write barriers enforce + proper on-disk ordering of journal commits, making volatile disk write + caches safe to use, at some performance penalty. If your disks are + battery-backed in one way or another, disabling barriers may safely + improve performance. The mount options "barrier" and "nobarrier" can + also be used to enable or disable barriers, for consistency with other + ext4 mount options. + + inode_readahead_blks=n + This tuning parameter controls the maximum number of inode table blocks + that ext4's inode table readahead algorithm will pre-read into the + buffer cache. The default value is 32 blocks. + + nouser_xattr + Disables Extended User Attributes. See the attr(5) manual page for + more information about extended attributes. + + noacl + This option disables POSIX Access Control List support.

They are used only by + quota tools to recognize volumes where quota should be turned on. See + documentation in the quota-tools package for more details + (http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxquota). + + jqfmt=<quota type>, usrjquota=<file>, grpjquota=<file> + These options tell filesystem details about quota so that quota + information can be properly updated during journal replay. They replace + the above quota options. See documentation in the quota-tools package + for more details (http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxquota). + + stripe=n + Number of filesystem blocks that mballoc will try to use for allocation + size and alignment. For RAID5/6 systems this should be the number of + data disks * RAID chunk size in file system blocks. + + delalloc (*) + Defer block allocation until just before ext4 writes out the block(s) + in question. This allows ext4 to better allocation decisions more + efficiently. + + nodelalloc + Disable delayed allocation. Blocks are allocated when the data is + copied from userspace to the page cache, either via the write(2) system + call or when an mmap'ed page which was previously unallocated is + written for the first time. + + max_batch_time=usec + Maximum amount of time ext4 should wait for additional filesystem + operations to be batch together with a synchronous write operation. + Since a synchronous write operation is going to force a commit and then + a wait for the I/O complete, it doesn't cost much, and can be a huge + throughput win, we wait for a small amount of time to see if any other + transactions can piggyback on the synchronous write. The algorithm + used is designed to automatically tune for the speed of the disk, by + measuring the amount of time (on average) that it takes to finish + committing a transaction. Call this time the "commit time". If the + time that the transaction has been running is less than the commit + time, ext4 will try sleeping for the commit time to see if other + operations will join the transaction. The commit time is capped by + the max_batch_time, which defaults to 15000us (15ms). This + optimization can be turned off entirely by setting max_batch_time to 0. + + min_batch_time=usec + This parameter sets the commit time (as described above) to be at least + min_batch_time. It defaults to zero microseconds. Increasing this + parameter may improve the throughput of multi-threaded, synchronous + workloads on very fast disks, at the cost of increasing latency. + + journal_ioprio=prio + The I/O priority (from 0 to 7, where 0 is the highest priority) which + should be used for I/O operations submitted by kjournald2 during a + commit operation. This defaults to 3, which is a slightly higher + priority than the default I/O priority. + + auto_da_alloc(*), noauto_da_alloc + Many broken applications don't use fsync() when replacing existing + files via patterns such as fd = open("foo.new")/write(fd,..)/close(fd)/ + rename("foo.new", "foo"), or worse yet, fd = open("foo", + O_TRUNC)/write(fd,..)/close(fd). If auto_da_alloc is enabled, ext4 + will detect the replace-via-rename and replace-via-truncate patterns + and force that any delayed allocation blocks are allocated such that at + the next journal commit, in the default data=ordered mode, the data + blocks of the new file are forced to disk before the rename() operation + is committed. This provides roughly the same level of guarantees as + ext3, and avoids the "zero-length" problem that can happen when a + system crashes before the delayed allocation blocks are forced to disk. + + noinit_itable + Do not initialize any uninitialized inode table blocks in the + background. This feature may be used by installation CD's so that the + install process can complete as quickly as possible; the inode table + initialization process would then be deferred until the next time the + file system is unmounted. + + init_itable=n + The lazy itable init code will wait n times the number of milliseconds + it took to zero out the previous block group's inode table. This + minimizes the impact on the system performance while file system's + inode table is being initialized. + + discard, nodiscard(*) + Controls whether ext4 should issue discard/TRIM commands to the + underlying block device when blocks are freed. This is useful for SSD + devices and sparse/thinly-provisioned LUNs, but it is off by default + until sufficient testing has been done. + + nouid32 + Disables 32-bit UIDs and GIDs. This is for interoperability with + older kernels which only store and expect 16-bit values. + + block_validity(*), noblock_validity + These options enable or disable the in-kernel facility for tracking + filesystem metadata blocks within internal data structures. This + allows multi- block allocator and other routines to notice bugs or + corrupted allocation bitmaps which cause blocks to be allocated which + overlap with filesystem metadata blocks. + + dioread_lock, dioread_nolock + Controls whether or not ext4 should use the DIO read locking. If the + dioread_nolock option is specified ext4 will allocate uninitialized + extent before buffer write and convert the extent to initialized after + IO completes. This approach allows ext4 code to avoid using inode + mutex, which improves scalability on high speed storages. However this + does not work with data journaling and dioread_nolock option will be + ignored with kernel warning. Note that dioread_nolock code path is only + used for extent-based files. Because of the restrictions this options + comprises it is off by default (e.g. dioread_lock). + + max_dir_size_kb=n + This limits the size of directories so that any attempt to expand them + beyond the specified limit in kilobytes will cause an ENOSPC error. + This is useful in memory constrained environments, where a very large + directory can cause severe performance problems or even provoke the Out + Of Memory killer. (For example, if there is only 512mb memory + available, a 176mb directory may seriously cramp the system's style.) + + i_version + Enable 64-bit inode version support. This option is off by default. + + dax + Use direct access (no page cache). See + Documentation/filesystems/dax.txt. Note that this option is + incompatible with data=journal. + +Data Mode +========= +There are 3 different data modes: + +* writeback mode + + In data=writeback mode, ext4 does not journal data at all. This mode provides + a similar level of journaling as that of XFS, JFS, and ReiserFS in its default + mode - metadata journaling. A crash+recovery can cause incorrect data to + appear in files which were written shortly before the crash. This mode will + typically provide the best ext4 performance. + +* ordered mode + + In data=ordered mode, ext4 only officially journals metadata, but it logically + groups metadata information related to data changes with the data blocks into + a single unit called a transaction. When it's time to write the new metadata + out to disk, the associated data blocks are written first. In general, this + mode performs slightly slower than writeback but significantly faster than + journal mode. + +* journal mode + + data=journal mode provides full data and metadata journaling. All new data is + written to the journal first, and then to its final location. In the event of + a crash, the journal can be replayed, bringing both data and metadata into a + consistent state. This mode is the slowest except when data needs to be read + from and written to disk at the same time where it outperforms all others + modes. Enabling this mode will disable delayed allocation and O_DIRECT + support. + +/proc entries +============= + +Information about mounted ext4 file systems can be found in +/proc/fs/ext4.

The list of all Ext4 specific ioctls are +shown in the table below. + +Table of Ext4 specific ioctls + + EXT4_IOC_GETFLAGS + Get additional attributes associated with inode. The ioctl argument is + an integer bitfield, with bit values described in ext4.h. This ioctl is + an alias for FS_IOC_GETFLAGS. + + EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS + Set additional attributes associated with inode. The ioctl argument is + an integer bitfield, with bit values described in ext4.h. This ioctl is + an alias for FS_IOC_SETFLAGS. + + EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION, EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION_OLD + Get the inode i_generation number stored for each inode. The + i_generation number is normally changed only when new inode is created + and it is particularly useful for network filesystems. The '_OLD' + version of this ioctl is an alias for FS_IOC_GETVERSION. + + EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION, EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION_OLD + Set the inode i_generation number stored for each inode. The '_OLD' + version of this ioctl is an alias for FS_IOC_SETVERSION. + + EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND + This ioctl has the same purpose as the resize mount option. It allows + to resize filesystem to the end of the last existing block group, + further resize has to be done with resize2fs, either online, or + offline. The argument points to the unsigned logn number representing + the filesystem new block count. + + EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT + Move the block extents from orig_fd (the one this ioctl is pointing to) + to the donor_fd (the one specified in move_extent structure passed as + an argument to this ioctl). Then, exchange inode metadata between + orig_fd and donor_fd. This is especially useful for online + defragmentation, because the allocator has the opportunity to allocate + moved blocks better, ideally into one contiguous extent. + + EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD + Add a new group descriptor to an existing or new group descriptor + block. The new group descriptor is described by ext4_new_group_input + structure, which is passed as an argument to this ioctl. This is + especially useful in conjunction with EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, which + allows online resize of the filesystem to the end of the last existing + block group. Those two ioctls combined is used in userspace online + resize tool (e.g. resize2fs). + + EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE + This ioctl operates on the filesystem itself. It converts (migrates) + ext3 indirect block mapped inode to ext4 extent mapped inode by walking + through indirect block mapping of the original inode and converting + contiguous block ranges into ext4 extents of the temporary inode. Then, + inodes are swapped. This ioctl might help, when migrating from ext3 to + ext4 filesystem, however suggestion is to create fresh ext4 filesystem + and copy data from the backup. Note, that filesystem has to support + extents for this ioctl to work. + + EXT4_IOC_ALLOC_DA_BLKS + Force all of the delay allocated blocks to be allocated to preserve + application-expected ext3 behaviour. Note that this will also start + triggering a write of the data blocks, but this behaviour may change in + the future as it is not necessary and has been done this way only for + sake of simplicity. + + EXT4_IOC_RESIZE_FS + Resize the filesystem to a new size. The number of blocks of resized + filesystem is passed in via 64 bit integer argument. The kernel + allocates bitmaps and inode table, the userspace tool thus just passes + the new number of blocks. + + EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT + Swap i_blocks and associated attributes (like i_blocks, i_size, + i_flags, ...) from the specified inode with inode EXT4_BOOT_LOADER_INO + (#5). This is typically used to store a boot loader in a secure part of + the filesystem, where it can't be changed by a normal user by accident. + The data blocks of the previous boot loader will be associated with the + given inode. + +References +========== + +kernel source: <file:fs/ext4/> + <file:fs/jbd2/> + +programs: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/ + +useful links: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ext3-devel + http://www.bullopensource.org/ext4/ + http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page + http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Ext4 diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/index.rst b/Documentation/admin-guide/index.rst index 0873685bab0f..965745d5fb9a 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/index.rst +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/index.rst @@ -71,6 +71,7 @@ configure specific aspects of kernel behavior to your liking. java ras bcache + ext4 pm/index thunderbolt LSM/index diff --git a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt index 92eb1f42240d..e129cd8a6dcc 100644 --- a/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt +++ b/Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.txt @@ -856,6 +856,11 @@ causing system reset or hang due to sending INIT from AP to BSP. + disable_counter_freezing [HW] + Disable Intel PMU counter freezing feature. + The feature only exists starting from + Arch Perfmon v4 (Skylake and newer). + disable_ddw [PPC/PSERIES] Disable Dynamic DMA Window support.

The Linux DAC960 -driver supports all current Mylex PCI RAID controllers including the new -eXtremeRAID 2000/3000 and AcceleRAID 352/170/160 models which have an entirely -new firmware interface from the older eXtremeRAID 1100, AcceleRAID 150/200/250, -and DAC960PJ/PG/PU/PD/PL. See below for a complete controller list as well as -minimum firmware version requirements. For simplicity, in most places this -documentation refers to DAC960 generically rather than explicitly listing all -the supported models. - -Driver bug reports should be sent via electronic mail to "lnz@dandelion.com". -Please include with the bug report the complete configuration messages reported -by the driver at startup, along with any subsequent system messages relevant to -the controller's operation, and a detailed description of your system's -hardware configuration. Driver bugs are actually quite rare; if you encounter -problems with disks being marked offline, for example, please contact Mylex -Technical Support as the problem is related to the hardware configuration -rather than the Linux driver. - -Please consult the RAID controller documentation for detailed information -regarding installation and configuration of the controllers. This document -primarily provides information specific to the Linux support. - - - DRIVER FEATURES - -The DAC960 RAID controllers are supported solely as high performance RAID -controllers, not as interfaces to arbitrary SCSI devices. The Linux DAC960 -driver operates at the block device level, the same level as the SCSI and IDE -drivers. Unlike other RAID controllers currently supported on Linux, the -DAC960 driver is not dependent on the SCSI subsystem, and hence avoids all the -complexity and unnecessary code that would be associated with an implementation -as a SCSI driver. The DAC960 driver is designed for as high a performance as -possible with no compromises or extra code for compatibility with lower -performance devices. The DAC960 driver includes extensive error logging and -online configuration management capabilities. Except for initial configuration -of the controller and adding new disk drives, most everything can be handled -from Linux while the system is operational. - -The DAC960 driver is architected to support up to 8 controllers per system. -Each DAC960 parallel SCSI controller can support up to 15 disk drives per -channel, for a maximum of 60 drives on a four channel controller; the fibre -channel eXtremeRAID 3000 controller supports up to 125 disk drives per loop for -a total of 250 drives. The drives installed on a controller are divided into -one or more "Drive Groups", and then each Drive Group is subdivided further -into 1 to 32 "Logical Drives". Each Logical Drive has a specific RAID Level -and caching policy associated with it, and it appears to Linux as a single -block device. Logical Drives are further subdivided into up to 7 partitions -through the normal Linux and PC disk partitioning schemes. Logical Drives are -also known as "System Drives", and Drive Groups are also called "Packs". Both -terms are in use in the Mylex documentation; I have chosen to standardize on -the more generic "Logical Drive" and "Drive Group". - -DAC960 RAID disk devices are named in the style of the obsolete Device File -System (DEVFS). The device corresponding to Logical Drive D on Controller C -is referred to as /dev/rd/cCdD, and the partitions are called /dev/rd/cCdDp1 -through /dev/rd/cCdDp7. For example, partition 3 of Logical Drive 5 on -Controller 2 is referred to as /dev/rd/c2d5p3. Note that unlike with SCSI -disks the device names will not change in the event of a disk drive failure. -The DAC960 driver is assigned major numbers 48 - 55 with one major number per -controller. The 8 bits of minor number are divided into 5 bits for the Logical -Drive and 3 bits for the partition. - - - SUPPORTED DAC960/AcceleRAID/eXtremeRAID PCI RAID CONTROLLERS - -The following list comprises the supported DAC960, AcceleRAID, and eXtremeRAID -PCI RAID Controllers as of the date of this document.

Mylex makes available a hard disk compatibility list at -http://www.mylex.com/support/hdcomp/hd-lists.html. - - - DRIVER INSTALLATION - -This distribution was prepared for Linux kernel version 2.2.19 or 2.4.12. - -To install the DAC960 RAID driver, you may use the following commands, -replacing "/usr/src" with wherever you keep your Linux kernel source tree: - - cd /usr/src - tar -xvzf DAC960-2.2.11.tar.gz (or DAC960-2.4.11.tar.gz) - mv README.DAC960 linux/Documentation - mv DAC960.[ch] linux/drivers/block - patch -p0 < DAC960.patch (if DAC960.patch is included) - cd linux - make config - make bzImage (or zImage) - -Then install "arch/x86/boot/bzImage" or "arch/x86/boot/zImage" as your -standard kernel, run lilo if appropriate, and reboot. - -To create the necessary devices in /dev, the "make_rd" script included in -"DAC960-Utilities.tar.gz" from http://www.dandelion.com/Linux/ may be used. -LILO 21 and FDISK v2.9 include DAC960 support; also included in this archive -are patches to LILO 20 and FDISK v2.8 that add DAC960 support, along with -statically linked executables of LILO and FDISK. This modified version of LILO -will allow booting from a DAC960 controller and/or mounting the root file -system from a DAC960. - -Red Hat Linux 6.0 and SuSE Linux 6.1 include support for Mylex PCI RAID -controllers. Installing directly onto a DAC960 may be problematic from other -Linux distributions until their installation utilities are updated. - - - INSTALLATION NOTES - -Before installing Linux or adding DAC960 logical drives to an existing Linux -system, the controller must first be configured to provide one or more logical -drives using the BIOS Configuration Utility or DACCF. Please note that since -there are only at most 6 usable partitions on each logical drive, systems -requiring more partitions should subdivide a drive group into multiple logical -drives, each of which can have up to 6 usable partitions. Also, note that with -large disk arrays it is advisable to enable the 8GB BIOS Geometry (255/63) -rather than accepting the default 2GB BIOS Geometry (128/32); failing to so do -will cause the logical drive geometry to have more than 65535 cylinders which -will make it impossible for FDISK to be used properly. The 8GB BIOS Geometry -can be enabled by configuring the DAC960 BIOS, which is accessible via Alt-M -during the BIOS initialization sequence. - -For maximum performance and the most efficient E2FSCK performance, it is -recommended that EXT2 file systems be built with a 4KB block size and 16 block -stride to match the DAC960 controller's 64KB default stripe size. The command -"mke2fs -b 4096 -R stride=16 <device>" is appropriate. Unless there will be a -large number of small files on the file systems, it is also beneficial to add -the "-i 16384" option to increase the bytes per inode parameter thereby -reducing the file system metadata. Finally, on systems that will only be run -with Linux 2.2 or later kernels it is beneficial to enable sparse superblocks -with the "-s 1" option. - - - DAC960 ANNOUNCEMENTS MAILING LIST - -The DAC960 Announcements Mailing List provides a forum for informing Linux -users of new driver releases and other announcements regarding Linux support -for DAC960 PCI RAID Controllers. To join the mailing list, send a message to -"dac960-announce-request@dandelion.com" with the line "subscribe" in the -message body. - - - CONTROLLER CONFIGURATION AND STATUS MONITORING - -The DAC960 RAID controllers running firmware 4.06 or above include a Background -Initialization facility so that system downtime is minimized both for initial -installation and subsequent configuration of additional storage. The BIOS -Configuration Utility (accessible via Alt-R during the BIOS initialization -sequence) is used to quickly configure the controller, and then the logical -drives that have been created are available for immediate use even while they -are still being initialized by the controller. The primary need for online -configuration and status monitoring is then to avoid system downtime when disk -drives fail and must be replaced. Mylex's online monitoring and configuration -utilities are being ported to Linux and will become available at some point in -the future. Note that with a SAF-TE (SCSI Accessed Fault-Tolerant Enclosure) -enclosure, the controller is able to rebuild failed drives automatically as -soon as a drive replacement is made available. - -The primary interfaces for controller configuration and status monitoring are -special files created in the /proc/rd/... hierarchy along with the normal -system console logging mechanism. Whenever the system is operating, the DAC960 -driver queries each controller for status information every 10 seconds, and -checks for additional conditions every 60 seconds. The initial status of each -controller is always available for controller N in /proc/rd/cN/initial_status, -and the current status as of the last status monitoring query is available in -/proc/rd/cN/current_status. In addition, status changes are also logged by the -driver to the system console and will appear in the log files maintained by -syslog. The progress of asynchronous rebuild or consistency check operations -is also available in /proc/rd/cN/current_status, and progress messages are -logged to the system console at most every 60 seconds. - -Starting with the 2.2.3/2.0.3 versions of the driver, the status information -available in /proc/rd/cN/initial_status and /proc/rd/cN/current_status has been -augmented to include the vendor, model, revision, and serial number (if -available) for each physical device found connected to the controller: - -***** DAC960 RAID Driver Version 2.2.3 of 19 August 1999 ***** -Copyright 1998-1999 by Leonard N.

The shell command sequence - - echo "<configuration-command>" > /proc/rd/c0/user_command - cat /proc/rd/c0/user_command - -is typically used to execute configuration commands. The configuration -commands are: - - flush-cache - - The "flush-cache" command flushes the controller's cache. The system - automatically flushes the cache at shutdown or if the driver module is - unloaded, so this command is only needed to be certain a write back cache - is flushed to disk before the system is powered off by a command to a UPS. - Note that the flush-cache command also stops an asynchronous rebuild or - consistency check, so it should not be used except when the system is being - halted. - - kill <channel>:<target-id> - - The "kill" command marks the physical drive <channel>:<target-id> as DEAD. - This command is provided primarily for testing, and should not be used - during normal system operation. - - make-online <channel>:<target-id> - - The "make-online" command changes the physical drive <channel>:<target-id> - from status DEAD to status ONLINE. In cases where multiple physical drives - have been killed simultaneously, this command may be used to bring all but - one of them back online, after which a rebuild to the final drive is - necessary. - - Warning: make-online should only be used on a dead physical drive that is - an active part of a drive group, never on a standby drive. The command - should never be used on a dead drive that is part of a critical logical - drive; rebuild should be used if only a single drive is dead. - - make-standby <channel>:<target-id> - - The "make-standby" command changes physical drive <channel>:<target-id> - from status DEAD to status STANDBY. It should only be used in cases where - a dead drive was replaced after an automatic rebuild was performed onto a - standby drive. It cannot be used to add a standby drive to the controller - configuration if one was not created initially; the BIOS Configuration - Utility must be used for that currently. - - rebuild <channel>:<target-id> - - The "rebuild" command initiates an asynchronous rebuild onto physical drive - <channel>:<target-id>. It should only be used when a dead drive has been - replaced. - - check-consistency <logical-drive-number> - - The "check-consistency" command initiates an asynchronous consistency check - of <logical-drive-number> with automatic restoration. It can be used - whenever it is desired to verify the consistency of the redundancy - information. - - cancel-rebuild - cancel-consistency-check - - The "cancel-rebuild" and "cancel-consistency-check" commands cancel any - rebuild or consistency check operations previously initiated. - - - EXAMPLE I - DRIVE FAILURE WITHOUT A STANDBY DRIVE - -The following annotated logs demonstrate the controller configuration and and -online status monitoring capabilities of the Linux DAC960 Driver.

You can +allocate small chunks using `kmalloc` or `kmem_cache_alloc` families, +large virtually contiguous areas using `vmalloc` and its derivatives, +or you can directly request pages from the page allocator with +`alloc_pages`. It is also possible to use more specialized allocators, +for instance `cma_alloc` or `zs_malloc`. + +Most of the memory allocation APIs use GFP flags to express how that +memory should be allocated. The GFP acronym stands for "get free +pages", the underlying memory allocation function. + +Diversity of the allocation APIs combined with the numerous GFP flags +makes the question "How should I allocate memory?" not that easy to +answer, although very likely you should use + +:: + + kzalloc(<size>, GFP_KERNEL); + +Of course there are cases when other allocation APIs and different GFP +flags must be used. + +Get Free Page flags +=================== + +The GFP flags control the allocators behavior. They tell what memory +zones can be used, how hard the allocator should try to find free +memory, whether the memory can be accessed by the userspace etc. The +:ref:`Documentation/core-api/mm-api.rst <mm-api-gfp-flags>` provides +reference documentation for the GFP flags and their combinations and +here we briefly outline their recommended usage: + + * Most of the time ``GFP_KERNEL`` is what you need. Memory for the + kernel data structures, DMAable memory, inode cache, all these and + many other allocations types can use ``GFP_KERNEL``. Note, that + using ``GFP_KERNEL`` implies ``GFP_RECLAIM``, which means that + direct reclaim may be triggered under memory pressure; the calling + context must be allowed to sleep. + * If the allocation is performed from an atomic context, e.g interrupt + handler, use ``GFP_NOWAIT``. This flag prevents direct reclaim and + IO or filesystem operations. Consequently, under memory pressure + ``GFP_NOWAIT`` allocation is likely to fail. Allocations which + have a reasonable fallback should be using ``GFP_NOWARN``. + * If you think that accessing memory reserves is justified and the kernel + will be stressed unless allocation succeeds, you may use ``GFP_ATOMIC``. + * Untrusted allocations triggered from userspace should be a subject + of kmem accounting and must have ``__GFP_ACCOUNT`` bit set. There + is the handy ``GFP_KERNEL_ACCOUNT`` shortcut for ``GFP_KERNEL`` + allocations that should be accounted. + * Userspace allocations should use either of the ``GFP_USER``, + ``GFP_HIGHUSER`` or ``GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE`` flags. The longer + the flag name the less restrictive it is. + + ``GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE`` does not require that allocated memory + will be directly accessible by the kernel and implies that the + data is movable. + + ``GFP_HIGHUSER`` means that the allocated memory is not movable, + but it is not required to be directly accessible by the kernel. An + example may be a hardware allocation that maps data directly into + userspace but has no addressing limitations. + + ``GFP_USER`` means that the allocated memory is not movable and it + must be directly accessible by the kernel. + +You may notice that quite a few allocations in the existing code +specify ``GFP_NOIO`` or ``GFP_NOFS``. Historically, they were used to +prevent recursion deadlocks caused by direct memory reclaim calling +back into the FS or IO paths and blocking on already held +resources. Since 4.12 the preferred way to address this issue is to +use new scope APIs described in +:ref:`Documentation/core-api/gfp_mask-from-fs-io.rst <gfp_mask_from_fs_io>`. + +Other legacy GFP flags are ``GFP_DMA`` and ``GFP_DMA32``. They are +used to ensure that the allocated memory is accessible by hardware +with limited addressing capabilities. So unless you are writing a +driver for a device with such restrictions, avoid using these flags. +And even with hardware with restrictions it is preferable to use +`dma_alloc*` APIs. + +Selecting memory allocator +========================== + +The most straightforward way to allocate memory is to use a function +from the :c:func:`kmalloc` family. And, to be on the safe size it's +best to use routines that set memory to zero, like +:c:func:`kzalloc`. If you need to allocate memory for an array, there +are :c:func:`kmalloc_array` and :c:func:`kcalloc` helpers. + +The maximal size of a chunk that can be allocated with `kmalloc` is +limited. The actual limit depends on the hardware and the kernel +configuration, but it is a good practice to use `kmalloc` for objects +smaller than page size. + +For large allocations you can use :c:func:`vmalloc` and +:c:func:`vzalloc`, or directly request pages from the page +allocator. The memory allocated by `vmalloc` and related functions is +not physically contiguous. + +If you are not sure whether the allocation size is too large for +`kmalloc`, it is possible to use :c:func:`kvmalloc` and its +derivatives. It will try to allocate memory with `kmalloc` and if the +allocation fails it will be retried with `vmalloc`. There are +restrictions on which GFP flags can be used with `kvmalloc`; please +see :c:func:`kvmalloc_node` reference documentation. Note that +`kvmalloc` may return memory that is not physically contiguous. + +If you need to allocate many identical objects you can use the slab +cache allocator. The cache should be set up with +:c:func:`kmem_cache_create` before it can be used. Afterwards +:c:func:`kmem_cache_alloc` and its convenience wrappers can allocate +memory from that cache. + +When the allocated memory is no longer needed it must be freed. You +can use :c:func:`kvfree` for the memory allocated with `kmalloc`, +`vmalloc` and `kvmalloc`. The slab caches should be freed with +:c:func:`kmem_cache_free`. And don't forget to destroy the cache with +:c:func:`kmem_cache_destroy`. diff --git a/Documentation/core-api/memory-hotplug.rst b/Documentation/core-api/memory-hotplug.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..de7467e48067 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/core-api/memory-hotplug.rst @@ -0,0 +1,125 @@ +.. _memory_hotplug: + +============== +Memory hotplug +============== + +Memory hotplug event notifier +============================= + +Hotplugging events are sent to a notification queue. + +There are six types of notification defined in ``include/linux/memory.h``: + +MEM_GOING_ONLINE + Generated before new memory becomes available in order to be able to + prepare subsystems to handle memory.

However, PCI BARs are not typically cache coherent so there are +a few corner case gotchas with these pages so developers need to +be careful about what they do with them. + + +Driver Writer's Guide +===================== + +In a given P2P implementation there may be three or more different +types of kernel drivers in play: + +* Provider - A driver which provides or publishes P2P resources like + memory or doorbell registers to other drivers. +* Client - A driver which makes use of a resource by setting up a + DMA transaction to or from it. +* Orchestrator - A driver which orchestrates the flow of data between + clients and providers. + +In many cases there could be overlap between these three types (i.e., +it may be typical for a driver to be both a provider and a client). + +For example, in the NVMe Target Copy Offload implementation: + +* The NVMe PCI driver is both a client, provider and orchestrator + in that it exposes any CMB (Controller Memory Buffer) as a P2P memory + resource (provider), it accepts P2P memory pages as buffers in requests + to be used directly (client) and it can also make use of the CMB as + submission queue entries (orchastrator). +* The RDMA driver is a client in this arrangement so that an RNIC + can DMA directly to the memory exposed by the NVMe device. +* The NVMe Target driver (nvmet) can orchestrate the data from the RNIC + to the P2P memory (CMB) and then to the NVMe device (and vice versa). + +This is currently the only arrangement supported by the kernel but +one could imagine slight tweaks to this that would allow for the same +functionality. For example, if a specific RNIC added a BAR with some +memory behind it, its driver could add support as a P2P provider and +then the NVMe Target could use the RNIC's memory instead of the CMB +in cases where the NVMe cards in use do not have CMB support. + + +Provider Drivers +---------------- + +A provider simply needs to register a BAR (or a portion of a BAR) +as a P2P DMA resource using :c:func:`pci_p2pdma_add_resource()`. +This will register struct pages for all the specified memory. + +After that it may optionally publish all of its resources as +P2P memory using :c:func:`pci_p2pmem_publish()`. This will allow +any orchestrator drivers to find and use the memory. When marked in +this way, the resource must be regular memory with no side effects. + +For the time being this is fairly rudimentary in that all resources +are typically going to be P2P memory. Future work will likely expand +this to include other types of resources like doorbells. + + +Client Drivers +-------------- + +A client driver typically only has to conditionally change its DMA map +routine to use the mapping function :c:func:`pci_p2pdma_map_sg()` instead +of the usual :c:func:`dma_map_sg()` function. Memory mapped in this +way does not need to be unmapped. + +The client may also, optionally, make use of +:c:func:`is_pci_p2pdma_page()` to determine when to use the P2P mapping +functions and when to use the regular mapping functions. In some +situations, it may be more appropriate to use a flag to indicate a +given request is P2P memory and map appropriately. It is important to +ensure that struct pages that back P2P memory stay out of code that +does not have support for them as other code may treat the pages as +regular memory which may not be appropriate. + + +Orchestrator Drivers +-------------------- + +The first task an orchestrator driver must do is compile a list of +all client devices that will be involved in a given transaction. For +example, the NVMe Target driver creates a list including the namespace +block device and the RNIC in use. If the orchestrator has access to +a specific P2P provider to use it may check compatibility using +:c:func:`pci_p2pdma_distance()` otherwise it may find a memory provider +that's compatible with all clients using :c:func:`pci_p2pmem_find()`. +If more than one provider is supported, the one nearest to all the clients will +be chosen first. If more than one provider is an equal distance away, the +one returned will be chosen at random (it is not an arbitrary but +truely random). This function returns the PCI device to use for the provider +with a reference taken and therefore when it's no longer needed it should be +returned with pci_dev_put(). + +Once a provider is selected, the orchestrator can then use +:c:func:`pci_alloc_p2pmem()` and :c:func:`pci_free_p2pmem()` to +allocate P2P memory from the provider. :c:func:`pci_p2pmem_alloc_sgl()` +and :c:func:`pci_p2pmem_free_sgl()` are convenience functions for +allocating scatter-gather lists with P2P memory. + +Struct Page Caveats +------------------- + +Driver writers should be very careful about not passing these special +struct pages to code that isn't prepared for it. At this time, the kernel +interfaces do not have any checks for ensuring this. This obviously +precludes passing these pages to userspace. + +P2P memory is also technically IO memory but should never have any side +effects behind it. Thus, the order of loads and stores should not be important +and ioreadX(), iowriteX() and friends should not be necessary. +However, as the memory is not cache coherent, if access ever needs to +be protected by a spinlock then :c:func:`mmiowb()` must be used before +unlocking the lock.

Configuring - the filesystem with a large journal can also be helpful for - metadata-intensive workloads. - -Features -======== - -Currently Available -------------------- - -* ability to use filesystems > 16TB (e2fsprogs support not available yet) -* extent format reduces metadata overhead (RAM, IO for access, transactions) -* extent format more robust in face of on-disk corruption due to magics, -* internal redundancy in tree -* improved file allocation (multi-block alloc) -* lift 32000 subdirectory limit imposed by i_links_count[1] -* nsec timestamps for mtime, atime, ctime, create time -* inode version field on disk (NFSv4, Lustre) -* reduced e2fsck time via uninit_bg feature -* journal checksumming for robustness, performance -* persistent file preallocation (e.g for streaming media, databases) -* ability to pack bitmaps and inode tables into larger virtual groups via the - flex_bg feature -* large file support -* inode allocation using large virtual block groups via flex_bg -* delayed allocation -* large block (up to pagesize) support -* efficient new ordered mode in JBD2 and ext4 (avoid using buffer head to force - the ordering) - -[1] Filesystems with a block size of 1k may see a limit imposed by the -directory hash tree having a maximum depth of two. - -Options -======= - -When mounting an ext4 filesystem, the following option are accepted: -(*) == default - -======================= ======================================================= -Mount Option Description -======================= ======================================================= -ro Mount filesystem read only. Note that ext4 will - replay the journal (and thus write to the - partition) even when mounted "read only". The - mount options "ro,noload" can be used to prevent - writes to the filesystem. - -journal_checksum Enable checksumming of the journal transactions. - This will allow the recovery code in e2fsck and the - kernel to detect corruption in the kernel. It is a - compatible change and will be ignored by older kernels. - -journal_async_commit Commit block can be written to disk without waiting - for descriptor blocks. If enabled older kernels cannot - mount the device. This will enable 'journal_checksum' - internally. - -journal_path=path -journal_dev=devnum When the external journal device's major/minor numbers - have changed, these options allow the user to specify - the new journal location. The journal device is - identified through either its new major/minor numbers - encoded in devnum, or via a path to the device. - -norecovery Don't load the journal on mounting. Note that -noload if the filesystem was not unmounted cleanly, - skipping the journal replay will lead to the - filesystem containing inconsistencies that can - lead to any number of problems. - -data=journal All data are committed into the journal prior to being - written into the main file system. Enabling - this mode will disable delayed allocation and - O_DIRECT support. - -data=ordered (*) All data are forced directly out to the main file - system prior to its metadata being committed to the - journal. - -data=writeback Data ordering is not preserved, data may be written - into the main file system after its metadata has been - committed to the journal. - -commit=nrsec (*) Ext4 can be told to sync all its data and metadata - every 'nrsec' seconds. The default value is 5 seconds. - This means that if you lose your power, you will lose - as much as the latest 5 seconds of work (your - filesystem will not be damaged though, thanks to the - journaling). This default value (or any low value) - will hurt performance, but it's good for data-safety. - Setting it to 0 will have the same effect as leaving - it at the default (5 seconds). - Setting it to very large values will improve - performance. - -barrier=<0|1(*)> This enables/disables the use of write barriers in -barrier(*) the jbd code. barrier=0 disables, barrier=1 enables. -nobarrier This also requires an IO stack which can support - barriers, and if jbd gets an error on a barrier - write, it will disable again with a warning. - Write barriers enforce proper on-disk ordering - of journal commits, making volatile disk write caches - safe to use, at some performance penalty. If - your disks are battery-backed in one way or another, - disabling barriers may safely improve performance. - The mount options "barrier" and "nobarrier" can - also be used to enable or disable barriers, for - consistency with other ext4 mount options. - -inode_readahead_blks=n This tuning parameter controls the maximum - number of inode table blocks that ext4's inode - table readahead algorithm will pre-read into - the buffer cache. The default value is 32 blocks. - -nouser_xattr Disables Extended User Attributes. See the - attr(5) manual page for more information about - extended attributes. - -noacl This option disables POSIX Access Control List - support. If ACL support is enabled in the kernel - configuration (CONFIG_EXT4_FS_POSIX_ACL), ACL is - enabled by default on mount. See the acl(5) manual - page for more information about acl. - -bsddf (*) Make 'df' act like BSD. -minixdf Make 'df' act like Minix. - -debug Extra debugging information is sent to syslog. - -abort Simulate the effects of calling ext4_abort() for - debugging purposes. This is normally used while - remounting a filesystem which is already mounted. - -errors=remount-ro Remount the filesystem read-only on an error. -errors=continue Keep going on a filesystem error. -errors=panic Panic and halt the machine if an error occurs. - (These mount options override the errors behavior - specified in the superblock, which can be configured - using tune2fs) - -data_err=ignore(*) Just print an error message if an error occurs - in a file data buffer in ordered mode. -data_err=abort Abort the journal if an error occurs in a file - data buffer in ordered mode. - -grpid New objects have the group ID of their parent. -bsdgroups - -nogrpid (*) New objects have the group ID of their creator. -sysvgroups - -resgid=n The group ID which may use the reserved blocks. - -resuid=n The user ID which may use the reserved blocks. - -sb=n Use alternate superblock at this location. - -quota These options are ignored by the filesystem. They -noquota are used only by quota tools to recognize volumes -grpquota where quota should be turned on. See documentation -usrquota in the quota-tools package for more details - (http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxquota). - -jqfmt=<quota type> These options tell filesystem details about quota -usrjquota=<file> so that quota information can be properly updated -grpjquota=<file> during journal replay. They replace the above - quota options. See documentation in the quota-tools - package for more details - (http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxquota). - -stripe=n Number of filesystem blocks that mballoc will try - to use for allocation size and alignment. For RAID5/6 - systems this should be the number of data - disks * RAID chunk size in file system blocks. - -delalloc (*) Defer block allocation until just before ext4 - writes out the block(s) in question. This - allows ext4 to better allocation decisions - more efficiently. -nodelalloc Disable delayed allocation. Blocks are allocated - when the data is copied from userspace to the - page cache, either via the write(2) system call - or when an mmap'ed page which was previously - unallocated is written for the first time. - -max_batch_time=usec Maximum amount of time ext4 should wait for - additional filesystem operations to be batch - together with a synchronous write operation. - Since a synchronous write operation is going to - force a commit and then a wait for the I/O - complete, it doesn't cost much, and can be a - huge throughput win, we wait for a small amount - of time to see if any other transactions can - piggyback on the synchronous write. The - algorithm used is designed to automatically tune - for the speed of the disk, by measuring the - amount of time (on average) that it takes to - finish committing a transaction. Call this time - the "commit time". If the time that the - transaction has been running is less than the - commit time, ext4 will try sleeping for the - commit time to see if other operations will join - the transaction. The commit time is capped by - the max_batch_time, which defaults to 15000us - (15ms). This optimization can be turned off - entirely by setting max_batch_time to 0. - -min_batch_time=usec This parameter sets the commit time (as - described above) to be at least min_batch_time. - It defaults to zero microseconds. Increasing - this parameter may improve the throughput of - multi-threaded, synchronous workloads on very - fast disks, at the cost of increasing latency. - -journal_ioprio=prio The I/O priority (from 0 to 7, where 0 is the - highest priority) which should be used for I/O - operations submitted by kjournald2 during a - commit operation. This defaults to 3, which is - a slightly higher priority than the default I/O - priority. - -auto_da_alloc(*) Many broken applications don't use fsync() when -noauto_da_alloc replacing existing files via patterns such as - fd = open("foo.new")/write(fd,..)/close(fd)/ - rename("foo.new", "foo"), or worse yet, - fd = open("foo", O_TRUNC)/write(fd,..)/close(fd). - If auto_da_alloc is enabled, ext4 will detect - the replace-via-rename and replace-via-truncate - patterns and force that any delayed allocation - blocks are allocated such that at the next - journal commit, in the default data=ordered - mode, the data blocks of the new file are forced - to disk before the rename() operation is - committed. This provides roughly the same level - of guarantees as ext3, and avoids the - "zero-length" problem that can happen when a - system crashes before the delayed allocation - blocks are forced to disk. - -noinit_itable Do not initialize any uninitialized inode table - blocks in the background. This feature may be - used by installation CD's so that the install - process can complete as quickly as possible; the - inode table initialization process would then be - deferred until the next time the file system - is unmounted. - -init_itable=n The lazy itable init code will wait n times the - number of milliseconds it took to zero out the - previous block group's inode table. This - minimizes the impact on the system performance - while file system's inode table is being initialized. - -discard Controls whether ext4 should issue discard/TRIM -nodiscard(*) commands to the underlying block device when - blocks are freed. This is useful for SSD devices - and sparse/thinly-provisioned LUNs, but it is off - by default until sufficient testing has been done. - -nouid32 Disables 32-bit UIDs and GIDs. This is for - interoperability with older kernels which only - store and expect 16-bit values. - -block_validity(*) These options enable or disable the in-kernel -noblock_validity facility for tracking filesystem metadata blocks - within internal data structures. This allows multi- - block allocator and other routines to notice - bugs or corrupted allocation bitmaps which cause - blocks to be allocated which overlap with - filesystem metadata blocks. - -dioread_lock Controls whether or not ext4 should use the DIO read -dioread_nolock locking. If the dioread_nolock option is specified - ext4 will allocate uninitialized extent before buffer - write and convert the extent to initialized after IO - completes. This approach allows ext4 code to avoid - using inode mutex, which improves scalability on high - speed storages. However this does not work with - data journaling and dioread_nolock option will be - ignored with kernel warning. Note that dioread_nolock - code path is only used for extent-based files. - Because of the restrictions this options comprises - it is off by default (e.g. dioread_lock). - -max_dir_size_kb=n This limits the size of directories so that any - attempt to expand them beyond the specified - limit in kilobytes will cause an ENOSPC error. - This is useful in memory constrained - environments, where a very large directory can - cause severe performance problems or even - provoke the Out Of Memory killer. (For example, - if there is only 512mb memory available, a 176mb - directory may seriously cramp the system's style.) - -i_version Enable 64-bit inode version support. This option is - off by default. - -dax Use direct access (no page cache). See - Documentation/filesystems/dax.txt. Note that - this option is incompatible with data=journal. -======================= ======================================================= - -Data Mode -========= -There are 3 different data modes: - -* writeback mode - - In data=writeback mode, ext4 does not journal data at all. This mode provides - a similar level of journaling as that of XFS, JFS, and ReiserFS in its default - mode - metadata journaling. A crash+recovery can cause incorrect data to - appear in files which were written shortly before the crash. This mode will - typically provide the best ext4 performance. - -* ordered mode - - In data=ordered mode, ext4 only officially journals metadata, but it logically - groups metadata information related to data changes with the data blocks into - a single unit called a transaction. When it's time to write the new metadata - out to disk, the associated data blocks are written first. In general, this - mode performs slightly slower than writeback but significantly faster than - journal mode. - -* journal mode - - data=journal mode provides full data and metadata journaling. All new data is - written to the journal first, and then to its final location. In the event of - a crash, the journal can be replayed, bringing both data and metadata into a - consistent state. This mode is the slowest except when data needs to be read - from and written to disk at the same time where it outperforms all others - modes. Enabling this mode will disable delayed allocation and O_DIRECT - support. - -/proc entries -============= - -Information about mounted ext4 file systems can be found in -/proc/fs/ext4. Each mounted filesystem will have a directory in -/proc/fs/ext4 based on its device name (i.e., /proc/fs/ext4/hdc or -/proc/fs/ext4/dm-0).

The default is 2% or 4096 clusters, - whichever is smaller and this can be changed - however it can never exceed number of clusters - in the file system. If there is not enough space - for the reserved space when mounting the file - mount will _not_ fail. -============================= ================================================= - -Ioctls -====== - -There is some Ext4 specific functionality which can be accessed by applications -through the system call interfaces. The list of all Ext4 specific ioctls are -shown in the table below. - -Table of Ext4 specific ioctls - -============================= ================================================= -Ioctl Description -============================= ================================================= - EXT4_IOC_GETFLAGS Get additional attributes associated with inode. - The ioctl argument is an integer bitfield, with - bit values described in ext4.h. This ioctl is an - alias for FS_IOC_GETFLAGS. - - EXT4_IOC_SETFLAGS Set additional attributes associated with inode. - The ioctl argument is an integer bitfield, with - bit values described in ext4.h. This ioctl is an - alias for FS_IOC_SETFLAGS. - - EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION - EXT4_IOC_GETVERSION_OLD - Get the inode i_generation number stored for - each inode. The i_generation number is normally - changed only when new inode is created and it is - particularly useful for network filesystems. The - '_OLD' version of this ioctl is an alias for - FS_IOC_GETVERSION. - - EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION - EXT4_IOC_SETVERSION_OLD - Set the inode i_generation number stored for - each inode. The '_OLD' version of this ioctl - is an alias for FS_IOC_SETVERSION. - - EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND This ioctl has the same purpose as the resize - mount option. It allows to resize filesystem - to the end of the last existing block group, - further resize has to be done with resize2fs, - either online, or offline. The argument points - to the unsigned logn number representing the - filesystem new block count. - - EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT Move the block extents from orig_fd (the one - this ioctl is pointing to) to the donor_fd (the - one specified in move_extent structure passed - as an argument to this ioctl). Then, exchange - inode metadata between orig_fd and donor_fd. - This is especially useful for online - defragmentation, because the allocator has the - opportunity to allocate moved blocks better, - ideally into one contiguous extent. - - EXT4_IOC_GROUP_ADD Add a new group descriptor to an existing or - new group descriptor block. The new group - descriptor is described by ext4_new_group_input - structure, which is passed as an argument to - this ioctl. This is especially useful in - conjunction with EXT4_IOC_GROUP_EXTEND, - which allows online resize of the filesystem - to the end of the last existing block group. - Those two ioctls combined is used in userspace - online resize tool (e.g. resize2fs). - - EXT4_IOC_MIGRATE This ioctl operates on the filesystem itself. - It converts (migrates) ext3 indirect block mapped - inode to ext4 extent mapped inode by walking - through indirect block mapping of the original - inode and converting contiguous block ranges - into ext4 extents of the temporary inode. Then, - inodes are swapped. This ioctl might help, when - migrating from ext3 to ext4 filesystem, however - suggestion is to create fresh ext4 filesystem - and copy data from the backup. Note, that - filesystem has to support extents for this ioctl - to work. - - EXT4_IOC_ALLOC_DA_BLKS Force all of the delay allocated blocks to be - allocated to preserve application-expected ext3 - behaviour. Note that this will also start - triggering a write of the data blocks, but this - behaviour may change in the future as it is - not necessary and has been done this way only - for sake of simplicity. - - EXT4_IOC_RESIZE_FS Resize the filesystem to a new size. The number - of blocks of resized filesystem is passed in via - 64 bit integer argument. The kernel allocates - bitmaps and inode table, the userspace tool thus - just passes the new number of blocks. - - EXT4_IOC_SWAP_BOOT Swap i_blocks and associated attributes - (like i_blocks, i_size, i_flags, ...) from - the specified inode with inode - EXT4_BOOT_LOADER_INO (#5). This is typically - used to store a boot loader in a secure part of - the filesystem, where it can't be changed by a - normal user by accident. - The data blocks of the previous boot loader - will be associated with the given inode. -============================= ================================================= - -References -========== - -kernel source: <file:fs/ext4/> - <file:fs/jbd2/> - -programs: http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net/ - -useful links: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ext3-devel - http://www.bullopensource.org/ext4/ - http://ext4.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Main_Page - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Ext4 diff --git a/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/ondisk/globals.rst b/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/globals.rst index 368bf7662b96..368bf7662b96 100644 --- a/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/ondisk/globals.rst +++ b/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/globals.rst diff --git a/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/ondisk/group_descr.rst b/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/group_descr.rst index 759827e5d2cf..0f783ed88592 100644 --- a/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/ondisk/group_descr.rst +++ b/Documentation/filesystems/ext4/group_descr.rst @@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ entire bitmap.

The board is a single attachment station and +it was manufactured in two variations, both of which are supported. + +First is the SAS MMF DEFZA-AA option, the original design implementing +the standard MMF-PMD, however with a pair of ST connectors rather than +the usual MIC connector. The other one is the SAS ThinWire/STP DEFZA-CA +option, denoted 700-C, with the network medium selectable by a switch +between the DEC proprietary ThinWire-PMD using a BNC connector and the +standard STP-PMD using a DE-9F connector. This option can interface to +a DECconcentrator 500 device and, in the case of the STP-PMD, also other +FDDI equipment and was designed to make it easier to transition from +existing IEEE 802.3 10BASE2 Ethernet and IEEE 802.5 Token Ring networks +by providing means to reuse existing cabling. + +This driver handles any number of cards installed in a single system. +They get fddi0, fddi1, etc. interface names assigned in the order of +increasing TURBOchannel slot numbers. + +The board only supports DMA on the receive side. Transmission involves +the use of PIO.

DPIOs are shared between +all DPAA2 objects (and implicitly all DPAA2 kernel drivers) that work with data +frames, but must be affine to the CPUs for the purpose of traffic distribution. + +Frames are transmitted and received through hardware frame queues, which can be +grouped in channels for the purpose of hardware scheduling. The Ethernet driver +enqueues TX frames on egress queues and after transmission is complete a TX +confirmation frame is sent back to the CPU. + +When frames are available on ingress queues, a data availability notification +is sent to the CPU; notifications are raised per channel, so even if multiple +queues in the same channel have available frames, only one notification is sent. +After a channel fires a notification, is must be explicitly rearmed. + +Each network interface can have multiple Rx, Tx and confirmation queues affined +to CPUs, and one channel (DPCON) for each CPU that services at least one queue. +DPCONs are used to distribute ingress traffic to different CPUs via the cores' +affine DPIOs. + +The role of hardware buffer pools is storage of ingress frame data. Each network +interface has a privately owned buffer pool which it seeds with kernel allocated +buffers. + + +DPNIs are decoupled from PHYs; a DPNI can be connected to a PHY through a DPMAC +object or to another DPNI through an internal link, but the connection is +managed by MC and completely transparent to the Ethernet driver. + +:: + + --------- --------- --------- + | eth if1 | | eth if2 | | eth ifn | + --------- --------- --------- + . . . + . . . + . . . + --------------------------- + | DPAA2 Ethernet Driver | + --------------------------- + . . . + . . . + . . . + ------ ------ ------ ------- + | DPNI | | DPNI | | DPNI | | DPMAC |----+ + ------ ------ ------ ------- | + | | | | | + | | | | ----- + =========== ================== | PHY | + ----- + +Creating a Network Interface +============================ +A net device is created for each DPNI object probed on the MC bus.

If the adapter cannot establish link with the link partner +using auto-negotiation, you may need to manually configure the adapter and link +partner to identical settings to establish link and pass packets. This should +only be needed when attempting to link with an older switch that does not +support auto-negotiation or one that has been forced to a specific speed or +duplex mode. Your link partner must match the setting you choose. 1 Gbps speeds +and higher cannot be forced. Use the autonegotiation advertising setting to +manually set devices for 1 Gbps and higher. + +Speed, duplex, and autonegotiation advertising are configured through the +ethtool* utility. + +Caution: Only experienced network administrators should force speed and duplex +or change autonegotiation advertising manually. The settings at the switch must +always match the adapter settings. Adapter performance may suffer or your +adapter may not operate if you configure the adapter differently from your +switch. + +An Intel(R) Ethernet Network Adapter using fiber-based connections, however, +will not attempt to auto-negotiate with its link partner since those adapters +operate only in full duplex and only at their native speed. + + +Enabling Wake on LAN* (WoL) +--------------------------- +WoL is configured through the ethtool* utility. + +WoL will be enabled on the system during the next shut down or reboot. For +this driver version, in order to enable WoL, the e1000e driver must be loaded +prior to shutting down or suspending the system. + +NOTE: Wake on LAN is only supported on port A for the following devices: +- Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Network Connection +- Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Connection +- Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Dual Port Server Adapter +- Intel(R) PRO/1000 PF Dual Port Server Adapter +- Intel(R) PRO/1000 PT Quad Port Server Adapter +- Intel(R) Gigabit PT Quad Port Server ExpressModule + + +Support +======= +For general information, go to the Intel support website at: + +https://www.intel.com/support/ + +or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: + +https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 + +If an issue is identified with the released source code on a supported kernel +with a supported adapter, email the specific information related to the issue +to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net. diff --git a/Documentation/networking/e1000e.txt b/Documentation/networking/e1000e.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 12089547baed..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/networking/e1000e.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,312 +0,0 @@ -Linux* Driver for Intel(R) Ethernet Network Connection -====================================================== - -Intel Gigabit Linux driver. -Copyright(c) 1999 - 2013 Intel Corporation. - -Contents -======== - -- Identifying Your Adapter -- Command Line Parameters -- Additional Configurations -- Support - -Identifying Your Adapter -======================== - -The e1000e driver supports all PCI Express Intel(R) Gigabit Network -Connections, except those that are 82575, 82576 and 82580-based*. - -* NOTE: The Intel(R) PRO/1000 P Dual Port Server Adapter is supported by - the e1000 driver, not the e1000e driver due to the 82546 part being used - behind a PCI Express bridge. - -For more information on how to identify your adapter, go to the Adapter & -Driver ID Guide at: - - http://support.intel.com/support/go/network/adapter/idguide.htm - -For the latest Intel network drivers for Linux, refer to the following -website.

In order to limit the CPU utilization without impacting - the overall throughput, we recommend that you load the driver as - follows: - - modprobe e1000e InterruptThrottleRate=3000,3000,3000 - - This sets the InterruptThrottleRate to 3000 interrupts/sec for - the first, second, and third instances of the driver. The range - of 2000 to 3000 interrupts per second works on a majority of - systems and is a good starting point, but the optimal value will - be platform-specific. If CPU utilization is not a concern, use - RX_POLLING (NAPI) and default driver settings. - -RxIntDelay ----------- -Valid Range: 0-65535 (0=off) -Default Value: 0 - -This value delays the generation of receive interrupts in units of 1.024 -microseconds. Receive interrupt reduction can improve CPU efficiency if -properly tuned for specific network traffic. Increasing this value adds -extra latency to frame reception and can end up decreasing the throughput -of TCP traffic. If the system is reporting dropped receives, this value -may be set too high, causing the driver to run out of available receive -descriptors. - -CAUTION: When setting RxIntDelay to a value other than 0, adapters may - hang (stop transmitting) under certain network conditions. If - this occurs a NETDEV WATCHDOG message is logged in the system - event log. In addition, the controller is automatically reset, - restoring the network connection. To eliminate the potential - for the hang ensure that RxIntDelay is set to 0. - -RxAbsIntDelay -------------- -Valid Range: 0-65535 (0=off) -Default Value: 8 - -This value, in units of 1.024 microseconds, limits the delay in which a -receive interrupt is generated. Useful only if RxIntDelay is non-zero, -this value ensures that an interrupt is generated after the initial -packet is received within the set amount of time. Proper tuning, -along with RxIntDelay, may improve traffic throughput in specific network -conditions. - -TxIntDelay ----------- -Valid Range: 0-65535 (0=off) -Default Value: 8 - -This value delays the generation of transmit interrupts in units of -1.024 microseconds. Transmit interrupt reduction can improve CPU -efficiency if properly tuned for specific network traffic. If the -system is reporting dropped transmits, this value may be set too high -causing the driver to run out of available transmit descriptors. - -TxAbsIntDelay -------------- -Valid Range: 0-65535 (0=off) -Default Value: 32 - -This value, in units of 1.024 microseconds, limits the delay in which a -transmit interrupt is generated.

If the driver load fails to enable a specific interrupt mode, the -driver will try other interrupt modes, from least to most compatible. The -interrupt order is MSI-X, MSI, Legacy. If specifying MSI (IntMode=1) -interrupts, only MSI and Legacy will be attempted. - -CrcStripping ------------- -Valid Range: 0-1 -Default Value: 1 (enabled) - -Strip the CRC from received packets before sending up the network stack. If -you have a machine with a BMC enabled but cannot receive IPMI traffic after -loading or enabling the driver, try disabling this feature. - -WriteProtectNVM ---------------- -Valid Range: 0,1 -Default Value: 1 - -If set to 1, configure the hardware to ignore all write/erase cycles to the -GbE region in the ICHx NVM (in order to prevent accidental corruption of the -NVM). This feature can be disabled by setting the parameter to 0 during initial -driver load. -NOTE: The machine must be power cycled (full off/on) when enabling NVM writes -via setting the parameter to zero. Once the NVM has been locked (via the -parameter at 1 when the driver loads) it cannot be unlocked except via power -cycle. - -Additional Configurations -========================= - - Jumbo Frames - ------------ - Jumbo Frames support is enabled by changing the MTU to a value larger than - the default of 1500. Use the ifconfig command to increase the MTU size. - For example: - - ifconfig eth<x> mtu 9000 up - - This setting is not saved across reboots. - - Notes: - - - The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 9216. This value coincides - with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 9234 bytes. - - - Using Jumbo frames at 10 or 100 Mbps is not supported and may result in - poor performance or loss of link. - - - Some adapters limit Jumbo Frames sized packets to a maximum of - 4096 bytes and some adapters do not support Jumbo Frames. - - - Jumbo Frames cannot be configured on an 82579-based Network device, if - MACSec is enabled on the system. - - ethtool - ------- - The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and - diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. We - strongly recommend downloading the latest version of ethtool at: - - https://kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ - - NOTE: When validating enable/disable tests on some parts (82578, for example) - you need to add a few seconds between tests when working with ethtool. - - Speed and Duplex - ---------------- - Speed and Duplex are configured through the ethtool* utility.

When a TCP-IP Intel Ethernet Flow +Director rule is added from ethtool (Sideband filter), ATR is turned off by the +driver. To re-enable ATR, the sideband can be disabled with the ethtool -K +option. For example:: + + ethtool –K [adapter] ntuple [off|on] + +If sideband is re-enabled after ATR is re-enabled, ATR remains enabled until a +TCP-IP flow is added.

You may program multiple filters +with the same fields, using different values, but, on one device, you may not +program two tcp4 filters with different matching fields. + +Matching on a sub-portion of a field is not supported by the i40e driver, thus +partial mask fields are not supported. + +The driver also supports matching user-defined data within the packet payload. +This flexible data is specified using the "user-def" field of the ethtool +command in the following way: + ++----------------------------+--------------------------+ +| 31 28 24 20 16 | 15 12 8 4 0 | ++----------------------------+--------------------------+ +| offset into packet payload | 2 bytes of flexible data | ++----------------------------+--------------------------+ + +For example, + +:: + + ... user-def 0x4FFFF ... + +tells the filter to look 4 bytes into the payload and match that value against +0xFFFF. The offset is based on the beginning of the payload, and not the +beginning of the packet. Thus + +:: + + flow-type tcp4 ... user-def 0x8BEAF ... + +would match TCP/IPv4 packets which have the value 0xBEAF 8 bytes into the +TCP/IPv4 payload. + +Note that ICMP headers are parsed as 4 bytes of header and 4 bytes of payload. +Thus to match the first byte of the payload, you must actually add 4 bytes to +the offset. Also note that ip4 filters match both ICMP frames as well as raw +(unknown) ip4 frames, where the payload will be the L3 payload of the IP4 frame. + +The maximum offset is 64. The hardware will only read up to 64 bytes of data +from the payload. The offset must be even because the flexible data is 2 bytes +long and must be aligned to byte 0 of the packet payload. + +The user-defined flexible offset is also considered part of the input set and +cannot be programmed separately for multiple filters of the same type. However, +the flexible data is not part of the input set and multiple filters may use the +same offset but match against different data. + +To create filters that direct traffic to a specific Virtual Function, use the +"action" parameter. Specify the action as a 64 bit value, where the lower 32 +bits represents the queue number, while the next 8 bits represent which VF. +Note that 0 is the PF, so the VF identifier is offset by 1. For example:: + + ... action 0x800000002 ... + +specifies to direct traffic to Virtual Function 7 (8 minus 1) into queue 2 of +that VF. + +Note that these filters will not break internal routing rules, and will not +route traffic that otherwise would not have been sent to the specified Virtual +Function. + +Setting the link-down-on-close Private Flag +------------------------------------------- +When the link-down-on-close private flag is set to "on", the port's link will +go down when the interface is brought down using the ifconfig ethX down command. + +Use ethtool to view and set link-down-on-close, as follows:: + + ethtool --show-priv-flags ethX + ethtool --set-priv-flags ethX link-down-on-close [on|off] + +Viewing Link Messages +--------------------- +Link messages will not be displayed to the console if the distribution is +restricting system messages. In order to see network driver link messages on +your console, set dmesg to eight by entering the following:: + + dmesg -n 8 + +NOTE: This setting is not saved across reboots. + +Jumbo Frames +------------ +Jumbo Frames support is enabled by changing the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) +to a value larger than the default value of 1500. + +Use the ifconfig command to increase the MTU size. For example, enter the +following where <x> is the interface number:: + + ifconfig eth<x> mtu 9000 up + +Alternatively, you can use the ip command as follows:: + + ip link set mtu 9000 dev eth<x> + ip link set up dev eth<x> + +This setting is not saved across reboots. The setting change can be made +permanent by adding 'MTU=9000' to the file:: + + /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth<x> // for RHEL + /etc/sysconfig/network/<config_file> // for SLES + +NOTE: The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 9702. This value coincides +with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 9728 bytes. + +NOTE: This driver will attempt to use multiple page sized buffers to receive +each jumbo packet. This should help to avoid buffer starvation issues when +allocating receive packets. + +ethtool +------- +The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and +diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The latest ethtool +version is required for this functionality.

If the adapter cannot establish link with the link partner +using auto-negotiation, you may need to manually configure the adapter and link +partner to identical settings to establish link and pass packets. This should +only be needed when attempting to link with an older switch that does not +support auto-negotiation or one that has been forced to a specific speed or +duplex mode. Your link partner must match the setting you choose. 1 Gbps speeds +and higher cannot be forced. Use the autonegotiation advertising setting to +manually set devices for 1 Gbps and higher. + +NOTE: You cannot set the speed for devices based on the Intel(R) Ethernet +Network Adapter XXV710 based devices. + +Speed, duplex, and autonegotiation advertising are configured through the +ethtool* utility. + +Caution: Only experienced network administrators should force speed and duplex +or change autonegotiation advertising manually. The settings at the switch must +always match the adapter settings. Adapter performance may suffer or your +adapter may not operate if you configure the adapter differently from your +switch. + +An Intel(R) Ethernet Network Adapter using fiber-based connections, however, +will not attempt to auto-negotiate with its link partner since those adapters +operate only in full duplex and only at their native speed. + +NAPI +---- +NAPI (Rx polling mode) is supported in the i40e driver. +For more information on NAPI, see +https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/napi + +Flow Control +------------ +Ethernet Flow Control (IEEE 802.3x) can be configured with ethtool to enable +receiving and transmitting pause frames for i40e. When transmit is enabled, +pause frames are generated when the receive packet buffer crosses a predefined +threshold. When receive is enabled, the transmit unit will halt for the time +delay specified when a pause frame is received. + +NOTE: You must have a flow control capable link partner. + +Flow Control is on by default. + +Use ethtool to change the flow control settings. + +To enable or disable Rx or Tx Flow Control:: + + ethtool -A eth? rx <on|off> tx <on|off> + +Note: This command only enables or disables Flow Control if auto-negotiation is +disabled. If auto-negotiation is enabled, this command changes the parameters +used for auto-negotiation with the link partner. + +To enable or disable auto-negotiation:: + + ethtool -s eth? autoneg <on|off> + +Note: Flow Control auto-negotiation is part of link auto-negotiation. Depending +on your device, you may not be able to change the auto-negotiation setting. + +RSS Hash Flow +------------- +Allows you to set the hash bytes per flow type and any combination of one or +more options for Receive Side Scaling (RSS) hash byte configuration. + +:: + + # ethtool -N <dev> rx-flow-hash <type> <option> + +Where <type> is: + tcp4 signifying TCP over IPv4 + udp4 signifying UDP over IPv4 + tcp6 signifying TCP over IPv6 + udp6 signifying UDP over IPv6 +And <option> is one or more of: + s Hash on the IP source address of the Rx packet. + d Hash on the IP destination address of the Rx packet. + f Hash on bytes 0 and 1 of the Layer 4 header of the Rx packet. + n Hash on bytes 2 and 3 of the Layer 4 header of the Rx packet. + +MAC and VLAN anti-spoofing feature +---------------------------------- +When a malicious driver attempts to send a spoofed packet, it is dropped by the +hardware and not transmitted. +NOTE: This feature can be disabled for a specific Virtual Function (VF):: + + ip link set <pf dev> vf <vf id> spoofchk {off|on} + +IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) Hardware Clock (PHC) +------------------------------------------------------------ +Precision Time Protocol (PTP) is used to synchronize clocks in a computer +network. PTP support varies among Intel devices that support this driver. Use +"ethtool -T <netdev name>" to get a definitive list of PTP capabilities +supported by the device. + +IEEE 802.1ad (QinQ) Support +--------------------------- +The IEEE 802.1ad standard, informally known as QinQ, allows for multiple VLAN +IDs within a single Ethernet frame. VLAN IDs are sometimes referred to as +"tags," and multiple VLAN IDs are thus referred to as a "tag stack." Tag stacks +allow L2 tunneling and the ability to segregate traffic within a particular +VLAN ID, among other uses. + +The following are examples of how to configure 802.1ad (QinQ):: + + ip link add link eth0 eth0.24 type vlan proto 802.1ad id 24 + ip link add link eth0.24 eth0.24.371 type vlan proto 802.1Q id 371 + +Where "24" and "371" are example VLAN IDs. + +NOTES: + Receive checksum offloads, cloud filters, and VLAN acceleration are not + supported for 802.1ad (QinQ) packets. + +VXLAN and GENEVE Overlay HW Offloading +-------------------------------------- +Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) allows you to extend an L2 network over an L3 +network, which may be useful in a virtualized or cloud environment. Some +Intel(R) Ethernet Network devices perform VXLAN processing, offloading it from +the operating system. This reduces CPU utilization. + +VXLAN offloading is controlled by the Tx and Rx checksum offload options +provided by ethtool. That is, if Tx checksum offload is enabled, and the +adapter has the capability, VXLAN offloading is also enabled. + +Support for VXLAN and GENEVE HW offloading is dependent on kernel support of +the HW offloading features. + +Multiple Functions per Port +--------------------------- +Some adapters based on the Intel Ethernet Controller X710/XL710 support +multiple functions on a single physical port. Configure these functions through +the System Setup/BIOS. + +Minimum TX Bandwidth is the guaranteed minimum data transmission bandwidth, as +a percentage of the full physical port link speed, that the partition will +receive. The bandwidth the partition is awarded will never fall below the level +you specify. + +The range for the minimum bandwidth values is: +1 to ((100 minus # of partitions on the physical port) plus 1) +For example, if a physical port has 4 partitions, the range would be: +1 to ((100 - 4) + 1 = 97) + +The Maximum Bandwidth percentage represents the maximum transmit bandwidth +allocated to the partition as a percentage of the full physical port link +speed. The accepted range of values is 1-100. The value is used as a limiter, +should you chose that any one particular function not be able to consume 100% +of a port's bandwidth (should it be available). The sum of all the values for +Maximum Bandwidth is not restricted, because no more than 100% of a port's +bandwidth can ever be used. + +NOTE: X710/XXV710 devices fail to enable Max VFs (64) when Multiple Functions +per Port (MFP) and SR-IOV are enabled. An error from i40e is logged that says +"add vsi failed for VF N, aq_err 16". To workaround the issue, enable less than +64 virtual functions (VFs). + +Data Center Bridging (DCB) +-------------------------- +DCB is a configuration Quality of Service implementation in hardware. It uses +the VLAN priority tag (802.1p) to filter traffic. That means that there are 8 +different priorities that traffic can be filtered into. It also enables +priority flow control (802.1Qbb) which can limit or eliminate the number of +dropped packets during network stress. Bandwidth can be allocated to each of +these priorities, which is enforced at the hardware level (802.1Qaz). + +Adapter firmware implements LLDP and DCBX protocol agents as per 802.1AB and +802.1Qaz respectively. The firmware based DCBX agent runs in willing mode only +and can accept settings from a DCBX capable peer. Software configuration of +DCBX parameters via dcbtool/lldptool are not supported. + +NOTE: Firmware LLDP can be disabled by setting the private flag disable-fw-lldp. + +The i40e driver implements the DCB netlink interface layer to allow user-space +to communicate with the driver and query DCB configuration for the port. + +NOTE: +The kernel assumes that TC0 is available, and will disable Priority Flow +Control (PFC) on the device if TC0 is not available. To fix this, ensure TC0 is +enabled when setting up DCB on your switch. + +Interrupt Rate Limiting +----------------------- +:Valid Range: 0-235 (0=no limit) + +The Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 family supports an interrupt rate +limiting mechanism. The user can control, via ethtool, the number of +microseconds between interrupts. + +Syntax:: + + # ethtool -C ethX rx-usecs-high N + +The range of 0-235 microseconds provides an effective range of 4,310 to 250,000 +interrupts per second. The value of rx-usecs-high can be set independently of +rx-usecs and tx-usecs in the same ethtool command, and is also independent of +the adaptive interrupt moderation algorithm. The underlying hardware supports +granularity in 4-microsecond intervals, so adjacent values may result in the +same interrupt rate. + +One possible use case is the following:: + + # ethtool -C ethX adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs-high 20 rx-usecs \ + 5 tx-usecs 5 + +The above command would disable adaptive interrupt moderation, and allow a +maximum of 5 microseconds before indicating a receive or transmit was complete. +However, instead of resulting in as many as 200,000 interrupts per second, it +limits total interrupts per second to 50,000 via the rx-usecs-high parameter. + +Performance Optimization +======================== +Driver defaults are meant to fit a wide variety of workloads, but if further +optimization is required we recommend experimenting with the following settings. + +NOTE: For better performance when processing small (64B) frame sizes, try +enabling Hyper threading in the BIOS in order to increase the number of logical +cores in the system and subsequently increase the number of queues available to +the adapter. + +Virtualized Environments +------------------------ +1. Disable XPS on both ends by using the included virt_perf_default script +or by running the following command as root:: + + for file in `ls /sys/class/net/<ethX>/queues/tx-*/xps_cpus`; + do echo 0 > $file; done + +2. Using the appropriate mechanism (vcpupin) in the vm, pin the cpu's to +individual lcpu's, making sure to use a set of cpu's included in the +device's local_cpulist: /sys/class/net/<ethX>/device/local_cpulist. + +3. Configure as many Rx/Tx queues in the VM as available. Do not rely on +the default setting of 1. + + +Non-virtualized Environments +---------------------------- +Pin the adapter's IRQs to specific cores by disabling the irqbalance service +and using the included set_irq_affinity script. Please see the script's help +text for further options. + +- The following settings will distribute the IRQs across all the cores evenly:: + + # scripts/set_irq_affinity -x all <interface1> , [ <interface2>, ... ] + +- The following settings will distribute the IRQs across all the cores that are + local to the adapter (same NUMA node):: + + # scripts/set_irq_affinity -x local <interface1> ,[ <interface2>, ... ] + +For very CPU intensive workloads, we recommend pinning the IRQs to all cores. + +For IP Forwarding: Disable Adaptive ITR and lower Rx and Tx interrupts per +queue using ethtool. + +- Setting rx-usecs and tx-usecs to 125 will limit interrupts to about 8000 + interrupts per second per queue. + +:: + + # ethtool -C <interface> adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 125 \ + tx-usecs 125 + +For lower CPU utilization: Disable Adaptive ITR and lower Rx and Tx interrupts +per queue using ethtool. + +- Setting rx-usecs and tx-usecs to 250 will limit interrupts to about 4000 + interrupts per second per queue. + +:: + + # ethtool -C <interface> adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 250 \ + tx-usecs 250 + +For lower latency: Disable Adaptive ITR and ITR by setting Rx and Tx to 0 using +ethtool. + +:: + + # ethtool -C <interface> adaptive-rx off adaptive-tx off rx-usecs 0 \ + tx-usecs 0 + +Application Device Queues (ADq) +------------------------------- +Application Device Queues (ADq) allows you to dedicate one or more queues to a +specific application. This can reduce latency for the specified application, +and allow Tx traffic to be rate limited per application. Follow the steps below +to set ADq. + +1. Create traffic classes (TCs). Maximum of 8 TCs can be created per interface. +The shaper bw_rlimit parameter is optional. + +Example: Sets up two tcs, tc0 and tc1, with 16 queues each and max tx rate set +to 1Gbit for tc0 and 3Gbit for tc1. + +:: + + # tc qdisc add dev <interface> root mqprio num_tc 2 map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 + queues 16@0 16@16 hw 1 mode channel shaper bw_rlimit min_rate 1Gbit 2Gbit + max_rate 1Gbit 3Gbit + +map: priority mapping for up to 16 priorities to tcs (e.g. map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 +sets priorities 0-3 to use tc0 and 4-7 to use tc1) + +queues: for each tc, <num queues>@<offset> (e.g. queues 16@0 16@16 assigns +16 queues to tc0 at offset 0 and 16 queues to tc1 at offset 16. Max total +number of queues for all tcs is 64 or number of cores, whichever is lower.) + +hw 1 mode channel: ‘channel’ with ‘hw’ set to 1 is a new new hardware +offload mode in mqprio that makes full use of the mqprio options, the +TCs, the queue configurations, and the QoS parameters. + +shaper bw_rlimit: for each tc, sets minimum and maximum bandwidth rates. +Totals must be equal or less than port speed. + +For example: min_rate 1Gbit 3Gbit: Verify bandwidth limit using network +monitoring tools such as ifstat or sar –n DEV [interval] [number of samples] + +2. Enable HW TC offload on interface:: + + # ethtool -K <interface> hw-tc-offload on + +3. Apply TCs to ingress (RX) flow of interface:: + + # tc qdisc add dev <interface> ingress + +NOTES: + - Run all tc commands from the iproute2 <pathtoiproute2>/tc/ directory. + - ADq is not compatible with cloud filters. + - Setting up channels via ethtool (ethtool -L) is not supported when the + TCs are configured using mqprio. + - You must have iproute2 latest version + - NVM version 6.01 or later is required. + - ADq cannot be enabled when any the following features are enabled: Data + Center Bridging (DCB), Multiple Functions per Port (MFP), or Sideband + Filters. + - If another driver (for example, DPDK) has set cloud filters, you cannot + enable ADq. + - Tunnel filters are not supported in ADq. If encapsulated packets do + arrive in non-tunnel mode, filtering will be done on the inner headers. + For example, for VXLAN traffic in non-tunnel mode, PCTYPE is identified + as a VXLAN encapsulated packet, outer headers are ignored. Therefore, + inner headers are matched. + - If a TC filter on a PF matches traffic over a VF (on the PF), that + traffic will be routed to the appropriate queue of the PF, and will + not be passed on the VF. Such traffic will end up getting dropped higher + up in the TCP/IP stack as it does not match PF address data. + - If traffic matches multiple TC filters that point to different TCs, + that traffic will be duplicated and sent to all matching TC queues. + The hardware switch mirrors the packet to a VSI list when multiple + filters are matched. + + +Known Issues/Troubleshooting +============================ + +NOTE: 1 Gb devices based on the Intel(R) Ethernet Network Connection X722 do +not support the following features: + + * Data Center Bridging (DCB) + * QOS + * VMQ + * SR-IOV + * Task Encapsulation offload (VXLAN, NVGRE) + * Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) + * Auto-media detect + +Unexpected Issues when the device driver and DPDK share a device +---------------------------------------------------------------- +Unexpected issues may result when an i40e device is in multi driver mode and +the kernel driver and DPDK driver are sharing the device. This is because +access to the global NIC resources is not synchronized between multiple +drivers. Any change to the global NIC configuration (writing to a global +register, setting global configuration by AQ, or changing switch modes) will +affect all ports and drivers on the device. Loading DPDK with the +"multi-driver" module parameter may mitigate some of the issues. + +TC0 must be enabled when setting up DCB on a switch +--------------------------------------------------- +The kernel assumes that TC0 is available, and will disable Priority Flow +Control (PFC) on the device if TC0 is not available. To fix this, ensure TC0 is +enabled when setting up DCB on your switch. + + +Support +======= +For general information, go to the Intel support website at: + +https://www.intel.com/support/ + +or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: + +https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 + +If an issue is identified with the released source code on a supported kernel +with a supported adapter, email the specific information related to the issue +to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net. diff --git a/Documentation/networking/i40e.txt b/Documentation/networking/i40e.txt deleted file mode 100644 index c2d6e1824b29..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/networking/i40e.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,190 +0,0 @@ -Linux Base Driver for the Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 Family -=================================================================== - -Intel i40e Linux driver. -Copyright(c) 2013 Intel Corporation. - -Contents -======== - -- Identifying Your Adapter -- Additional Configurations -- Performance Tuning -- Known Issues -- Support - - -Identifying Your Adapter -======================== - -The driver in this release is compatible with the Intel Ethernet -Controller XL710 Family. - -For more information on how to identify your adapter, go to the Adapter & -Driver ID Guide at: - - http://support.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-012904.htm - - -Enabling the driver -=================== - -The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system, -using the make command: - - make config/oldconfig/menuconfig/etc. - -The driver is located in the menu structure at: - - -> Device Drivers - -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y]) - -> Ethernet driver support - -> Intel devices - -> Intel(R) Ethernet Controller XL710 Family - -Additional Configurations -========================= - - Generic Receive Offload (GRO) - ----------------------------- - The driver supports the in-kernel software implementation of GRO. GRO has - shown that by coalescing Rx traffic into larger chunks of data, CPU - utilization can be significantly reduced when under large Rx load. GRO is - an evolution of the previously-used LRO interface. GRO is able to coalesce - other protocols besides TCP. It's also safe to use with configurations that - are problematic for LRO, namely bridging and iSCSI. - - Ethtool - ------- - The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and - diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The latest - ethtool version is required for this functionality. - - The latest release of ethtool can be found from - https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool - - - Flow Director n-ntuple traffic filters (FDir) - --------------------------------------------- - The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for configuring ntuple filters, - via "ethtool -N <device> <filter>". - - The sctp4, ip4, udp4, and tcp4 flow types are supported with the standard - fields including src-ip, dst-ip, src-port and dst-port. The driver only - supports fully enabling or fully masking the fields, so use of the mask - fields for partial matches is not supported. - - Additionally, the driver supports using the action to specify filters for a - Virtual Function. You can specify the action as a 64bit value, where the - lower 32 bits represents the queue number, while the next 8 bits represent - which VF. Note that 0 is the PF, so the VF identifier is offset by 1. For - example: - - ... action 0x800000002 ... - - Would indicate to direct traffic for Virtual Function 7 (8 minus 1) on queue - 2 of that VF. - - The driver also supports using the user-defined field to specify 2 bytes of - arbitrary data to match within the packet payload in addition to the regular - fields. The data is specified in the lower 32bits of the user-def field in - the following way: - - +----------------------------+---------------------------+ - | 31 28 24 20 16 | 15 12 8 4 0| - +----------------------------+---------------------------+ - | offset into packet payload | 2 bytes of flexible data | - +----------------------------+---------------------------+ - - As an example, - - ... user-def 0x4FFFF .... - - means to match the value 0xFFFF 4 bytes into the packet payload. Note that - the offset is based on the beginning of the payload, and not the beginning - of the packet. Thus - - flow-type tcp4 ... user-def 0x8BEAF .... - - would match TCP/IPv4 packets which have the value 0xBEAF 8bytes into the - TCP/IPv4 payload. - - For ICMP, the hardware parses the ICMP header as 4 bytes of header and 4 - bytes of payload, so if you want to match an ICMP frames payload you may need - to add 4 to the offset in order to match the data. - - Furthermore, the offset can only be up to a value of 64, as the hardware - will only read up to 64 bytes of data from the payload. It must also be even - as the flexible data is 2 bytes long and must be aligned to byte 0 of the - packet payload. - - When programming filters, the hardware is limited to using a single input - set for each flow type. This means that it is an error to program two - different filters with the same type that don't match on the same fields. - Thus the second of the following two commands will fail: - - ethtool -N <device> flow-type tcp4 src-ip 192.168.0.7 action 5 - ethtool -N <device> flow-type tcp4 dst-ip 192.168.15.18 action 1 - - This is because the first filter will be accepted and reprogram the input - set for TCPv4 filters, but the second filter will be unable to reprogram the - input set until all the conflicting TCPv4 filters are first removed. - - Note that the user-defined flexible offset is also considered part of the - input set and cannot be programmed separately for multiple filters of the - same type. However, the flexible data is not part of the input set and - multiple filters may use the same offset but match against different data. - - Data Center Bridging (DCB) - -------------------------- - DCB configuration is not currently supported. - - FCoE - ---- - The driver supports Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Data Center - Bridging (DCB) functionality.

Download it at: +https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ + +Setting VLAN Tag Stripping +-------------------------- +If you have applications that require Virtual Functions (VFs) to receive +packets with VLAN tags, you can disable VLAN tag stripping for the VF. The +Physical Function (PF) processes requests issued from the VF to enable or +disable VLAN tag stripping. Note that if the PF has assigned a VLAN to a VF, +then requests from that VF to set VLAN tag stripping will be ignored. + +To enable/disable VLAN tag stripping for a VF, issue the following command +from inside the VM in which you are running the VF:: + + ethtool -K <if_name> rxvlan on/off + +or alternatively:: + + ethtool --offload <if_name> rxvlan on/off + +Adaptive Virtual Function +------------------------- +Adaptive Virtual Function (AVF) allows the virtual function driver, or VF, to +adapt to changing feature sets of the physical function driver (PF) with which +it is associated. This allows system administrators to update a PF without +having to update all the VFs associated with it. All AVFs have a single common +device ID and branding string. + +AVFs have a minimum set of features known as "base mode," but may provide +additional features depending on what features are available in the PF with +which the AVF is associated. The following are base mode features: + +- 4 Queue Pairs (QP) and associated Configuration Status Registers (CSRs) + for Tx/Rx. +- i40e descriptors and ring format. +- Descriptor write-back completion. +- 1 control queue, with i40e descriptors, CSRs and ring format. +- 5 MSI-X interrupt vectors and corresponding i40e CSRs. +- 1 Interrupt Throttle Rate (ITR) index. +- 1 Virtual Station Interface (VSI) per VF. +- 1 Traffic Class (TC), TC0 +- Receive Side Scaling (RSS) with 64 entry indirection table and key, + configured through the PF. +- 1 unicast MAC address reserved per VF. +- 16 MAC address filters for each VF. +- Stateless offloads - non-tunneled checksums. +- AVF device ID. +- HW mailbox is used for VF to PF communications (including on Windows). + +IEEE 802.1ad (QinQ) Support +--------------------------- +The IEEE 802.1ad standard, informally known as QinQ, allows for multiple VLAN +IDs within a single Ethernet frame. VLAN IDs are sometimes referred to as +"tags," and multiple VLAN IDs are thus referred to as a "tag stack." Tag stacks +allow L2 tunneling and the ability to segregate traffic within a particular +VLAN ID, among other uses. + +The following are examples of how to configure 802.1ad (QinQ):: + + ip link add link eth0 eth0.24 type vlan proto 802.1ad id 24 + ip link add link eth0.24 eth0.24.371 type vlan proto 802.1Q id 371 + +Where "24" and "371" are example VLAN IDs. + +NOTES: + Receive checksum offloads, cloud filters, and VLAN acceleration are not + supported for 802.1ad (QinQ) packets. + +Application Device Queues (ADq) +------------------------------- +Application Device Queues (ADq) allows you to dedicate one or more queues to a +specific application. This can reduce latency for the specified application, +and allow Tx traffic to be rate limited per application. Follow the steps below +to set ADq. + +1. Create traffic classes (TCs). Maximum of 8 TCs can be created per interface. +The shaper bw_rlimit parameter is optional. + +Example: Sets up two tcs, tc0 and tc1, with 16 queues each and max tx rate set +to 1Gbit for tc0 and 3Gbit for tc1. + +:: + + # tc qdisc add dev <interface> root mqprio num_tc 2 map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 + queues 16@0 16@16 hw 1 mode channel shaper bw_rlimit min_rate 1Gbit 2Gbit + max_rate 1Gbit 3Gbit + +map: priority mapping for up to 16 priorities to tcs (e.g. map 0 0 0 0 1 1 1 1 +sets priorities 0-3 to use tc0 and 4-7 to use tc1) + +queues: for each tc, <num queues>@<offset> (e.g. queues 16@0 16@16 assigns +16 queues to tc0 at offset 0 and 16 queues to tc1 at offset 16. Max total +number of queues for all tcs is 64 or number of cores, whichever is lower.) + +hw 1 mode channel: ‘channel’ with ‘hw’ set to 1 is a new new hardware +offload mode in mqprio that makes full use of the mqprio options, the +TCs, the queue configurations, and the QoS parameters. + +shaper bw_rlimit: for each tc, sets minimum and maximum bandwidth rates. +Totals must be equal or less than port speed. + +For example: min_rate 1Gbit 3Gbit: Verify bandwidth limit using network +monitoring tools such as ifstat or sar –n DEV [interval] [number of samples] + +2. Enable HW TC offload on interface:: + + # ethtool -K <interface> hw-tc-offload on + +3. Apply TCs to ingress (RX) flow of interface:: + + # tc qdisc add dev <interface> ingress + +NOTES: + - Run all tc commands from the iproute2 <pathtoiproute2>/tc/ directory. + - ADq is not compatible with cloud filters. + - Setting up channels via ethtool (ethtool -L) is not supported when the TCs + are configured using mqprio. + - You must have iproute2 latest version + - NVM version 6.01 or later is required. + - ADq cannot be enabled when any the following features are enabled: Data + Center Bridging (DCB), Multiple Functions per Port (MFP), or Sideband Filters. + - If another driver (for example, DPDK) has set cloud filters, you cannot + enable ADq. + - Tunnel filters are not supported in ADq. If encapsulated packets do arrive + in non-tunnel mode, filtering will be done on the inner headers. For example, + for VXLAN traffic in non-tunnel mode, PCTYPE is identified as a VXLAN + encapsulated packet, outer headers are ignored. Therefore, inner headers are + matched. + - If a TC filter on a PF matches traffic over a VF (on the PF), that traffic + will be routed to the appropriate queue of the PF, and will not be passed on + the VF. Such traffic will end up getting dropped higher up in the TCP/IP + stack as it does not match PF address data. + - If traffic matches multiple TC filters that point to different TCs, that + traffic will be duplicated and sent to all matching TC queues. The hardware + switch mirrors the packet to a VSI list when multiple filters are matched. + + +Known Issues/Troubleshooting +============================ + +Traffic Is Not Being Passed Between VM and Client +------------------------------------------------- +You may not be able to pass traffic between a client system and a +Virtual Machine (VM) running on a separate host if the Virtual Function +(VF, or Virtual NIC) is not in trusted mode and spoof checking is enabled +on the VF. Note that this situation can occur in any combination of client, +host, and guest operating system. For information on how to set the VF to +trusted mode, refer to the section "VLAN Tag Packet Steering" in this +readme document. For information on setting spoof checking, refer to the +section "MAC and VLAN anti-spoofing feature" in this readme document. + +Do not unload port driver if VF with active VM is bound to it +------------------------------------------------------------- +Do not unload a port's driver if a Virtual Function (VF) with an active Virtual +Machine (VM) is bound to it. Doing so will cause the port to appear to hang. +Once the VM shuts down, or otherwise releases the VF, the command will complete. + +Virtual machine does not get link +--------------------------------- +If the virtual machine has more than one virtual port assigned to it, and those +virtual ports are bound to different physical ports, you may not get link on +all of the virtual ports. The following command may work around the issue:: + + ethtool -r <PF> + +Where <PF> is the PF interface in the host, for example: p5p1. You may need to +run the command more than once to get link on all virtual ports. + +MAC address of Virtual Function changes unexpectedly +---------------------------------------------------- +If a Virtual Function's MAC address is not assigned in the host, then the VF +(virtual function) driver will use a random MAC address. This random MAC +address may change each time the VF driver is reloaded. You can assign a static +MAC address in the host machine. This static MAC address will survive +a VF driver reload. + +Driver Buffer Overflow Fix +-------------------------- +The fix to resolve CVE-2016-8105, referenced in Intel SA-00069 +https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/security-center/advisory/intel-sa-00069.html +is included in this and future versions of the driver. + +Multiple Interfaces on Same Ethernet Broadcast Network +------------------------------------------------------ +Due to the default ARP behavior on Linux, it is not possible to have one system +on two IP networks in the same Ethernet broadcast domain (non-partitioned +switch) behave as expected. All Ethernet interfaces will respond to IP traffic +for any IP address assigned to the system. This results in unbalanced receive +traffic. + +If you have multiple interfaces in a server, either turn on ARP filtering by +entering:: + + echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter + +NOTE: This setting is not saved across reboots. The configuration change can be +made permanent by adding the following line to the file /etc/sysctl.conf:: + + net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter = 1 + +Another alternative is to install the interfaces in separate broadcast domains +(either in different switches or in a switch partitioned to VLANs). + +Rx Page Allocation Errors +------------------------- +'Page allocation failure. order:0' errors may occur under stress. +This is caused by the way the Linux kernel reports this stressed condition. + + +Support +======= +For general information, go to the Intel support website at: + +https://support.intel.com + +or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: + +https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 + +If an issue is identified with the released source code on the supported kernel +with a supported adapter, email the specific information related to the issue +to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net diff --git a/Documentation/networking/ice.rst b/Documentation/networking/ice.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..1e4948c9e989 --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/networking/ice.rst @@ -0,0 +1,45 @@ +..

The values will be applied to each instance, in function order. +For example:: + + modprobe igb max_vfs=2,4 + +In this case, there are two network ports supported by igb in the system. + +NOTE: A descriptor describes a data buffer and attributes related to the data +buffer. This information is accessed by the hardware. + +max_vfs +------- +:Valid Range: 0-7 + +This parameter adds support for SR-IOV. It causes the driver to spawn up to +max_vfs worth of virtual functions. If the value is greater than 0 it will +also force the VMDq parameter to be 1 or more. + +The parameters for the driver are referenced by position. Thus, if you have a +dual port adapter, or more than one adapter in your system, and want N virtual +functions per port, you must specify a number for each port with each parameter +separated by a comma. For example:: + + modprobe igb max_vfs=4 + +This will spawn 4 VFs on the first port. + +:: + + modprobe igb max_vfs=2,4 + +This will spawn 2 VFs on the first port and 4 VFs on the second port. + +NOTE: Caution must be used in loading the driver with these parameters. +Depending on your system configuration, number of slots, etc., it is impossible +to predict in all cases where the positions would be on the command line. + +NOTE: Neither the device nor the driver control how VFs are mapped into config +space. Bus layout will vary by operating system. On operating systems that +support it, you can check sysfs to find the mapping. + +NOTE: When either SR-IOV mode or VMDq mode is enabled, hardware VLAN filtering +and VLAN tag stripping/insertion will remain enabled. Please remove the old +VLAN filter before the new VLAN filter is added. For example:: + + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 100 // set vlan 100 for VF 0 + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 0 // Delete vlan 100 + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 200 // set a new vlan 200 for VF 0 + +Debug +----- +:Valid Range: 0-16 (0=none,...,16=all) +:Default Value: 0 + +This parameter adjusts the level debug messages displayed in the system logs. + + +Additional Features and Configurations +====================================== + +Jumbo Frames +------------ +Jumbo Frames support is enabled by changing the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) +to a value larger than the default value of 1500. + +Use the ifconfig command to increase the MTU size.

The following enhancements were +originally acquired from settings published at http://www.spec.org/web99/ for +various submitted results using Linux. + +NOTE: + These changes are only suggestions, and serve as a starting point for + tuning your network performance. + +The changes are made in three major ways, listed in order of greatest effect: + +- Use ip link to modify the mtu (maximum transmission unit) and the txqueuelen + parameter. +- Use sysctl to modify /proc parameters (essentially kernel tuning) +- Use setpci to modify the MMRBC field in PCI-X configuration space to increase + transmit burst lengths on the bus. + +NOTE: + setpci modifies the adapter's configuration registers to allow it to read + up to 4k bytes at a time (for transmits). However, for some systems the + behavior after modifying this register may be undefined (possibly errors of + some kind).

One way to alleviate this problem is to allow more memory to +be used by the IP stack to store incoming data. + +For instance, use the commands:: + + sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=262143 + +and:: + + sysctl -w net.core.rmem_default=262143 + +to increase the read buffer memory max and default to 262143 (256k - 1) from +defaults of max=131071 (128k - 1) and default=65535 (64k - 1). These variables +will increase the amount of memory used by the network stack for receives, and +can be increased significantly more if necessary for your application. + + +Additional Configurations +========================= + +Configuring the Driver on Different Distributions +------------------------------------------------- +Configuring a network driver to load properly when the system is started is +distribution dependent. Typically, the configuration process involves adding +an alias line to /etc/modprobe.conf as well as editing other system startup +scripts and/or configuration files. Many popular Linux distributions ship +with tools to make these changes for you. To learn the proper way to +configure a network device for your system, refer to your distribution +documentation. If during this process you are asked for the driver or module +name, the name for the Linux Base Driver for the Intel 10GbE Family of +Adapters is ixgb. + +Viewing Link Messages +--------------------- +Link messages will not be displayed to the console if the distribution is +restricting system messages. In order to see network driver link messages on +your console, set dmesg to eight by entering the following:: + + dmesg -n 8 + +NOTE: This setting is not saved across reboots. + +Jumbo Frames +------------ +The driver supports Jumbo Frames for all adapters. Jumbo Frames support is +enabled by changing the MTU to a value larger than the default of 1500. +The maximum value for the MTU is 16114. Use the ip command to +increase the MTU size. For example:: + + ip li set dev ethx mtu 9000 + +The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 16114. This value coincides +with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 16128. + +Ethtool +------- +The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and +diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The ethtool +version 1.6 or later is required for this functionality. + +The latest release of ethtool can be found from +https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ + +NOTE: + The ethtool version 1.6 only supports a limited set of ethtool options. + Support for a more complete ethtool feature set can be enabled by + upgrading to the latest version. + +NAPI +---- +NAPI (Rx polling mode) is supported in the ixgb driver. + +See https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/networking/napi for more information on +NAPI. + + +Known Issues/Troubleshooting +============================ + +NOTE: + After installing the driver, if your Intel Network Connection is not + working, verify in the "In This Release" section of the readme that you have + installed the correct driver. + +Cable Interoperability Issue with Fujitsu XENPAK Module in SmartBits Chassis +---------------------------------------------------------------------------- +Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 +Server adapter is connected to a Fujitsu XENPAK CX4 module in a SmartBits +chassis using 15 m/24AWG cable assemblies manufactured by Fujitsu or Leoni. +The CRC errors may be received either by the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 +Server adapter or the SmartBits. If this situation occurs using a different +cable assembly may resolve the issue. + +Cable Interoperability Issues with HP Procurve 3400cl Switch Port +----------------------------------------------------------------- +Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 Server +adapter is connected to an HP Procurve 3400cl switch port using short cables +(1 m or shorter). If this situation occurs, using a longer cable may resolve +the issue. + +Excessive CRC errors may be observed using Fujitsu 24AWG cable assemblies that +Are 10 m or longer or where using a Leoni 15 m/24AWG cable assembly. The CRC +errors may be received either by the CX4 Server adapter or at the switch. If +this situation occurs, using a different cable assembly may resolve the issue. + +Jumbo Frames System Requirement +------------------------------- +Memory allocation failures have been observed on Linux systems with 64 MB +of RAM or less that are running Jumbo Frames. If you are using Jumbo +Frames, your system may require more than the advertised minimum +requirement of 64 MB of system memory. + +Performance Degradation with Jumbo Frames +----------------------------------------- +Degradation in throughput performance may be observed in some Jumbo frames +environments. If this is observed, increasing the application's socket buffer +size and/or increasing the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_*mem entry values may help. +See the specific application manual and /usr/src/linux*/Documentation/ +networking/ip-sysctl.txt for more details. + +Allocating Rx Buffers when Using Jumbo Frames +--------------------------------------------- +Allocating Rx buffers when using Jumbo Frames on 2.6.x kernels may fail if +the available memory is heavily fragmented. This issue may be seen with PCI-X +adapters or with packet split disabled. This can be reduced or eliminated +by changing the amount of available memory for receive buffer allocation, by +increasing /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes. + +Multiple Interfaces on Same Ethernet Broadcast Network +------------------------------------------------------ +Due to the default ARP behavior on Linux, it is not possible to have +one system on two IP networks in the same Ethernet broadcast domain +(non-partitioned switch) behave as expected. All Ethernet interfaces +will respond to IP traffic for any IP address assigned to the system. +This results in unbalanced receive traffic. + +If you have multiple interfaces in a server, do either of the following: + + - Turn on ARP filtering by entering:: + + echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter + + - Install the interfaces in separate broadcast domains - either in + different switches or in a switch partitioned to VLANs. + +UDP Stress Test Dropped Packet Issue +-------------------------------------- +Under small packets UDP stress test with 10GbE driver, the Linux system +may drop UDP packets due to the fullness of socket buffers. You may want +to change the driver's Flow Control variables to the minimum value for +controlling packet reception. + +Tx Hangs Possible Under Stress +------------------------------ +Under stress conditions, if TX hangs occur, turning off TSO +"ethtool -K eth0 tso off" may resolve the problem. + + +Support +======= +For general information, go to the Intel support website at: + +https://www.intel.com/support/ + +or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: + +https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 + +If an issue is identified with the released source code on a supported kernel +with a supported adapter, email the specific information related to the issue +to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net diff --git a/Documentation/networking/ixgb.txt b/Documentation/networking/ixgb.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 09f71d71920a..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/networking/ixgb.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,433 +0,0 @@ -Linux Base Driver for 10 Gigabit Intel(R) Ethernet Network Connection -===================================================================== - -March 14, 2011 - - -Contents -======== - -- In This Release -- Identifying Your Adapter -- Building and Installation -- Command Line Parameters -- Improving Performance -- Additional Configurations -- Known Issues/Troubleshooting -- Support - - - -In This Release -=============== - -This file describes the ixgb Linux Base Driver for the 10 Gigabit Intel(R) -Network Connection.

A power-cycle, hard reset or explicitly setting the e6 register -back to 22 (setpci -d 8086:1a48 e6.b=22) may be required to get back to a -stable configuration. - -- COPY these lines and paste them into ixgb_perf.sh: -#!/bin/bash -echo "configuring network performance , edit this file to change the interface -or device ID of 10GbE card" -# set mmrbc to 4k reads, modify only Intel 10GbE device IDs -# replace 1a48 with appropriate 10GbE device's ID installed on the system, -# if needed. -setpci -d 8086:1a48 e6.b=2e -# set the MTU (max transmission unit) - it requires your switch and clients -# to change as well. -# set the txqueuelen -# your ixgb adapter should be loaded as eth1 for this to work, change if needed -ip li set dev eth1 mtu 9000 txqueuelen 1000 up -# call the sysctl utility to modify /proc/sys entries -sysctl -p ./sysctl_ixgb.conf -- END ixgb_perf.sh - -- COPY these lines and paste them into sysctl_ixgb.conf: -# some of the defaults may be different for your kernel -# call this file with sysctl -p <this file> -# these are just suggested values that worked well to increase throughput in -# several network benchmark tests, your mileage may vary - -### IPV4 specific settings -# turn TCP timestamp support off, default 1, reduces CPU use -net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 0 -# turn SACK support off, default on -# on systems with a VERY fast bus -> memory interface this is the big gainer -net.ipv4.tcp_sack = 0 -# set min/default/max TCP read buffer, default 4096 87380 174760 -net.ipv4.tcp_rmem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 -# set min/pressure/max TCP write buffer, default 4096 16384 131072 -net.ipv4.tcp_wmem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 -# set min/pressure/max TCP buffer space, default 31744 32256 32768 -net.ipv4.tcp_mem = 10000000 10000000 10000000 - -### CORE settings (mostly for socket and UDP effect) -# set maximum receive socket buffer size, default 131071 -net.core.rmem_max = 524287 -# set maximum send socket buffer size, default 131071 -net.core.wmem_max = 524287 -# set default receive socket buffer size, default 65535 -net.core.rmem_default = 524287 -# set default send socket buffer size, default 65535 -net.core.wmem_default = 524287 -# set maximum amount of option memory buffers, default 10240 -net.core.optmem_max = 524287 -# set number of unprocessed input packets before kernel starts dropping them; default 300 -net.core.netdev_max_backlog = 300000 -- END sysctl_ixgb.conf - -Edit the ixgb_perf.sh script if necessary to change eth1 to whatever interface -your ixgb driver is using and/or replace '1a48' with appropriate 10GbE device's -ID installed on the system. - -NOTE: Unless these scripts are added to the boot process, these changes will - only last only until the next system reboot. - - -Resolving Slow UDP Traffic --------------------------- -If your server does not seem to be able to receive UDP traffic as fast as it -can receive TCP traffic, it could be because Linux, by default, does not set -the network stack buffers as large as they need to be to support high UDP -transfer rates. One way to alleviate this problem is to allow more memory to -be used by the IP stack to store incoming data. - -For instance, use the commands: - sysctl -w net.core.rmem_max=262143 -and - sysctl -w net.core.rmem_default=262143 -to increase the read buffer memory max and default to 262143 (256k - 1) from -defaults of max=131071 (128k - 1) and default=65535 (64k - 1). These variables -will increase the amount of memory used by the network stack for receives, and -can be increased significantly more if necessary for your application. - - -Additional Configurations -========================= - - Configuring the Driver on Different Distributions - ------------------------------------------------- - Configuring a network driver to load properly when the system is started is - distribution dependent. Typically, the configuration process involves adding - an alias line to /etc/modprobe.conf as well as editing other system startup - scripts and/or configuration files. Many popular Linux distributions ship - with tools to make these changes for you. To learn the proper way to - configure a network device for your system, refer to your distribution - documentation. If during this process you are asked for the driver or module - name, the name for the Linux Base Driver for the Intel 10GbE Family of - Adapters is ixgb. - - Viewing Link Messages - --------------------- - Link messages will not be displayed to the console if the distribution is - restricting system messages. In order to see network driver link messages on - your console, set dmesg to eight by entering the following: - - dmesg -n 8 - - NOTE: This setting is not saved across reboots. - - - Jumbo Frames - ------------ - The driver supports Jumbo Frames for all adapters. Jumbo Frames support is - enabled by changing the MTU to a value larger than the default of 1500. - The maximum value for the MTU is 16114. Use the ip command to - increase the MTU size. For example: - - ip li set dev ethx mtu 9000 - - The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 16114. This value coincides - with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 16128. - - - ethtool - ------- - The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and - diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The ethtool - version 1.6 or later is required for this functionality. - - The latest release of ethtool can be found from - https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ - - NOTE: The ethtool version 1.6 only supports a limited set of ethtool options. - Support for a more complete ethtool feature set can be enabled by - upgrading to the latest version. - - - NAPI - ---- - - NAPI (Rx polling mode) is supported in the ixgb driver. NAPI is enabled - or disabled based on the configuration of the kernel. see CONFIG_IXGB_NAPI - - See www.cyberus.ca/~hadi/usenix-paper.tgz for more information on NAPI. - - -Known Issues/Troubleshooting -============================ - - NOTE: After installing the driver, if your Intel Network Connection is not - working, verify in the "In This Release" section of the readme that you have - installed the correct driver. - - Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 Server Adapter Cable Interoperability Issue with - Fujitsu XENPAK Module in SmartBits Chassis - --------------------------------------------------------------------- - Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 - Server adapter is connected to a Fujitsu XENPAK CX4 module in a SmartBits - chassis using 15 m/24AWG cable assemblies manufactured by Fujitsu or Leoni. - The CRC errors may be received either by the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 - Server adapter or the SmartBits. If this situation occurs using a different - cable assembly may resolve the issue. - - CX4 Server Adapter Cable Interoperability Issues with HP Procurve 3400cl - Switch Port - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - Excessive CRC errors may be observed if the Intel(R) PRO/10GbE CX4 Server - adapter is connected to an HP Procurve 3400cl switch port using short cables - (1 m or shorter). If this situation occurs, using a longer cable may resolve - the issue. - - Excessive CRC errors may be observed using Fujitsu 24AWG cable assemblies that - Are 10 m or longer or where using a Leoni 15 m/24AWG cable assembly. The CRC - errors may be received either by the CX4 Server adapter or at the switch. If - this situation occurs, using a different cable assembly may resolve the issue. - - - Jumbo Frames System Requirement - ------------------------------- - Memory allocation failures have been observed on Linux systems with 64 MB - of RAM or less that are running Jumbo Frames. If you are using Jumbo - Frames, your system may require more than the advertised minimum - requirement of 64 MB of system memory. - - - Performance Degradation with Jumbo Frames - ----------------------------------------- - Degradation in throughput performance may be observed in some Jumbo frames - environments. If this is observed, increasing the application's socket buffer - size and/or increasing the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_*mem entry values may help. - See the specific application manual and /usr/src/linux*/Documentation/ - networking/ip-sysctl.txt for more details. - - - Allocating Rx Buffers when Using Jumbo Frames - --------------------------------------------- - Allocating Rx buffers when using Jumbo Frames on 2.6.x kernels may fail if - the available memory is heavily fragmented. This issue may be seen with PCI-X - adapters or with packet split disabled. This can be reduced or eliminated - by changing the amount of available memory for receive buffer allocation, by - increasing /proc/sys/vm/min_free_kbytes. - - - Multiple Interfaces on Same Ethernet Broadcast Network - ------------------------------------------------------ - Due to the default ARP behavior on Linux, it is not possible to have - one system on two IP networks in the same Ethernet broadcast domain - (non-partitioned switch) behave as expected. All Ethernet interfaces - will respond to IP traffic for any IP address assigned to the system. - This results in unbalanced receive traffic. - - If you have multiple interfaces in a server, do either of the following: - - - Turn on ARP filtering by entering: - echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/arp_filter - - - Install the interfaces in separate broadcast domains - either in - different switches or in a switch partitioned to VLANs. - - - UDP Stress Test Dropped Packet Issue - -------------------------------------- - Under small packets UDP stress test with 10GbE driver, the Linux system - may drop UDP packets due to the fullness of socket buffers. You may want - to change the driver's Flow Control variables to the minimum value for - controlling packet reception. - - - Tx Hangs Possible Under Stress - ------------------------------ - Under stress conditions, if TX hangs occur, turning off TSO - "ethtool -K eth0 tso off" may resolve the problem. - - -Support -======= - -For general information, go to the Intel support website at: - - http://support.intel.com - -or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: - - http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 - -If an issue is identified with the released source code on the supported -kernel with a supported adapter, email the specific information related -to the issue to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net diff --git a/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.rst b/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.rst new file mode 100644 index 000000000000..725fc697fd8f --- /dev/null +++ b/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.rst @@ -0,0 +1,527 @@ +..

It causes the driver to spawn up to +max_vfs worth of virtual functions. +If the value is greater than 0 it will also force the VMDq parameter to be 1 or +more. + +NOTE: This parameter is only used on kernel 3.7.x and below. On kernel 3.8.x +and above, use sysfs to enable VFs. Also, for Red Hat distributions, this +parameter is only used on version 6.6 and older. For version 6.7 and newer, use +sysfs. For example:: + + #echo $num_vf_enabled > /sys/class/net/$dev/device/sriov_numvfs // enable VFs + #echo 0 > /sys/class/net/$dev/device/sriov_numvfs //disable VFs + +The parameters for the driver are referenced by position. Thus, if you have a +dual port adapter, or more than one adapter in your system, and want N virtual +functions per port, you must specify a number for each port with each parameter +separated by a comma. For example:: + + modprobe ixgbe max_vfs=4 + +This will spawn 4 VFs on the first port. + +:: + + modprobe ixgbe max_vfs=2,4 + +This will spawn 2 VFs on the first port and 4 VFs on the second port. + +NOTE: Caution must be used in loading the driver with these parameters. +Depending on your system configuration, number of slots, etc., it is impossible +to predict in all cases where the positions would be on the command line. + +NOTE: Neither the device nor the driver control how VFs are mapped into config +space. Bus layout will vary by operating system. On operating systems that +support it, you can check sysfs to find the mapping. + +NOTE: When either SR-IOV mode or VMDq mode is enabled, hardware VLAN filtering +and VLAN tag stripping/insertion will remain enabled. Please remove the old +VLAN filter before the new VLAN filter is added. For example, + +:: + + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 100 // set VLAN 100 for VF 0 + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 0 // Delete VLAN 100 + ip link set eth0 vf 0 vlan 200 // set a new VLAN 200 for VF 0 + +With kernel 3.6, the driver supports the simultaneous usage of max_vfs and DCB +features, subject to the constraints described below. Prior to kernel 3.6, the +driver did not support the simultaneous operation of max_vfs greater than 0 and +the DCB features (multiple traffic classes utilizing Priority Flow Control and +Extended Transmission Selection). + +When DCB is enabled, network traffic is transmitted and received through +multiple traffic classes (packet buffers in the NIC). The traffic is associated +with a specific class based on priority, which has a value of 0 through 7 used +in the VLAN tag. When SR-IOV is not enabled, each traffic class is associated +with a set of receive/transmit descriptor queue pairs. The number of queue +pairs for a given traffic class depends on the hardware configuration. When +SR-IOV is enabled, the descriptor queue pairs are grouped into pools. The +Physical Function (PF) and each Virtual Function (VF) is allocated a pool of +receive/transmit descriptor queue pairs. When multiple traffic classes are +configured (for example, DCB is enabled), each pool contains a queue pair from +each traffic class. When a single traffic class is configured in the hardware, +the pools contain multiple queue pairs from the single traffic class. + +The number of VFs that can be allocated depends on the number of traffic +classes that can be enabled. The configurable number of traffic classes for +each enabled VF is as follows: +0 - 15 VFs = Up to 8 traffic classes, depending on device support +16 - 31 VFs = Up to 4 traffic classes +32 - 63 VFs = 1 traffic class + +When VFs are configured, the PF is allocated one pool as well. The PF supports +the DCB features with the constraint that each traffic class will only use a +single queue pair. When zero VFs are configured, the PF can support multiple +queue pairs per traffic class. + +allow_unsupported_sfp +--------------------- +:Valid Range: 0,1 +:Default Value: 0 (disabled) + +This parameter allows unsupported and untested SFP+ modules on 82599-based +adapters, as long as the type of module is known to the driver. + +debug +----- +:Valid Range: 0-16 (0=none,...,16=all) +:Default Value: 0 + +This parameter adjusts the level of debug messages displayed in the system +logs. + + +Additional Features and Configurations +====================================== + +Flow Control +------------ +Ethernet Flow Control (IEEE 802.3x) can be configured with ethtool to enable +receiving and transmitting pause frames for ixgbe. When transmit is enabled, +pause frames are generated when the receive packet buffer crosses a predefined +threshold. When receive is enabled, the transmit unit will halt for the time +delay specified when a pause frame is received. + +NOTE: You must have a flow control capable link partner. + +Flow Control is enabled by default. + +Use ethtool to change the flow control settings. To enable or disable Rx or +Tx Flow Control:: + + ethtool -A eth? rx <on|off> tx <on|off> + +Note: This command only enables or disables Flow Control if auto-negotiation is +disabled. If auto-negotiation is enabled, this command changes the parameters +used for auto-negotiation with the link partner. + +To enable or disable auto-negotiation:: + + ethtool -s eth? autoneg <on|off> + +Note: Flow Control auto-negotiation is part of link auto-negotiation. Depending +on your device, you may not be able to change the auto-negotiation setting. + +NOTE: For 82598 backplane cards entering 1 gigabit mode, flow control default +behavior is changed to off. Flow control in 1 gigabit mode on these devices can +lead to transmit hangs. + +Intel(R) Ethernet Flow Director +------------------------------- +The Intel Ethernet Flow Director performs the following tasks: + +- Directs receive packets according to their flows to different queues. +- Enables tight control on routing a flow in the platform. +- Matches flows and CPU cores for flow affinity. +- Supports multiple parameters for flexible flow classification and load + balancing (in SFP mode only). + +NOTE: Intel Ethernet Flow Director masking works in the opposite manner from +subnet masking. In the following command:: + + #ethtool -N eth11 flow-type ip4 src-ip 172.4.1.2 m 255.0.0.0 dst-ip \ + 172.21.1.1 m 255.128.0.0 action 31 + +The src-ip value that is written to the filter will be 0.4.1.2, not 172.0.0.0 +as might be expected. Similarly, the dst-ip value written to the filter will be +0.21.1.1, not 172.0.0.0. + +To enable or disable the Intel Ethernet Flow Director:: + + # ethtool -K ethX ntuple <on|off> + +When disabling ntuple filters, all the user programmed filters are flushed from +the driver cache and hardware. All needed filters must be re-added when ntuple +is re-enabled. + +To add a filter that directs packet to queue 2, use -U or -N switch:: + + # ethtool -N ethX flow-type tcp4 src-ip 192.168.10.1 dst-ip \ + 192.168.10.2 src-port 2000 dst-port 2001 action 2 [loc 1] + +To see the list of filters currently present:: + + # ethtool <-u|-n> ethX + +Sideband Perfect Filters +------------------------ +Sideband Perfect Filters are used to direct traffic that matches specified +characteristics. They are enabled through ethtool's ntuple interface. To add a +new filter use the following command:: + + ethtool -U <device> flow-type <type> src-ip <ip> dst-ip <ip> src-port <port> \ + dst-port <port> action <queue> + +Where: + <device> - the ethernet device to program + <type> - can be ip4, tcp4, udp4, or sctp4 + <ip> - the IP address to match on + <port> - the port number to match on + <queue> - the queue to direct traffic towards (-1 discards the matched traffic) + +Use the following command to delete a filter:: + + ethtool -U <device> delete <N> + +Where <N> is the filter id displayed when printing all the active filters, and +may also have been specified using "loc <N>" when adding the filter. + +The following example matches TCP traffic sent from 192.168.0.1, port 5300, +directed to 192.168.0.5, port 80, and sends it to queue 7:: + + ethtool -U enp130s0 flow-type tcp4 src-ip 192.168.0.1 dst-ip 192.168.0.5 \ + src-port 5300 dst-port 80 action 7 + +For each flow-type, the programmed filters must all have the same matching +input set. For example, issuing the following two commands is acceptable:: + + ethtool -U enp130s0 flow-type ip4 src-ip 192.168.0.1 src-port 5300 action 7 + ethtool -U enp130s0 flow-type ip4 src-ip 192.168.0.5 src-port 55 action 10 + +Issuing the next two commands, however, is not acceptable, since the first +specifies src-ip and the second specifies dst-ip:: + + ethtool -U enp130s0 flow-type ip4 src-ip 192.168.0.1 src-port 5300 action 7 + ethtool -U enp130s0 flow-type ip4 dst-ip 192.168.0.5 src-port 55 action 10 + +The second command will fail with an error. You may program multiple filters +with the same fields, using different values, but, on one device, you may not +program two TCP4 filters with different matching fields. + +Matching on a sub-portion of a field is not supported by the ixgbe driver, thus +partial mask fields are not supported. + +To create filters that direct traffic to a specific Virtual Function, use the +"user-def" parameter. Specify the user-def as a 64 bit value, where the lower 32 +bits represents the queue number, while the next 8 bits represent which VF. +Note that 0 is the PF, so the VF identifier is offset by 1.

For example, enter the +following where <x> is the interface number:: + + ifconfig eth<x> mtu 9000 up + +Alternatively, you can use the ip command as follows:: + + ip link set mtu 9000 dev eth<x> + ip link set up dev eth<x> + +This setting is not saved across reboots. The setting change can be made +permanent by adding 'MTU=9000' to the file:: + + /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth<x> // for RHEL + /etc/sysconfig/network/<config_file> // for SLES + +NOTE: The maximum MTU setting for Jumbo Frames is 9710. This value coincides +with the maximum Jumbo Frames size of 9728 bytes. + +NOTE: This driver will attempt to use multiple page sized buffers to receive +each jumbo packet. This should help to avoid buffer starvation issues when +allocating receive packets. + +NOTE: For 82599-based network connections, if you are enabling jumbo frames in +a virtual function (VF), jumbo frames must first be enabled in the physical +function (PF). The VF MTU setting cannot be larger than the PF MTU. + +Generic Receive Offload, aka GRO +-------------------------------- +The driver supports the in-kernel software implementation of GRO. GRO has +shown that by coalescing Rx traffic into larger chunks of data, CPU +utilization can be significantly reduced when under large Rx load. GRO is an +evolution of the previously-used LRO interface. GRO is able to coalesce +other protocols besides TCP. It's also safe to use with configurations that +are problematic for LRO, namely bridging and iSCSI. + +Data Center Bridging (DCB) +-------------------------- +NOTE: +The kernel assumes that TC0 is available, and will disable Priority Flow +Control (PFC) on the device if TC0 is not available. To fix this, ensure TC0 is +enabled when setting up DCB on your switch. + +DCB is a configuration Quality of Service implementation in hardware. It uses +the VLAN priority tag (802.1p) to filter traffic. That means that there are 8 +different priorities that traffic can be filtered into. It also enables +priority flow control (802.1Qbb) which can limit or eliminate the number of +dropped packets during network stress. Bandwidth can be allocated to each of +these priorities, which is enforced at the hardware level (802.1Qaz). + +Adapter firmware implements LLDP and DCBX protocol agents as per 802.1AB and +802.1Qaz respectively. The firmware based DCBX agent runs in willing mode only +and can accept settings from a DCBX capable peer. Software configuration of +DCBX parameters via dcbtool/lldptool are not supported. + +The ixgbe driver implements the DCB netlink interface layer to allow user-space +to communicate with the driver and query DCB configuration for the port. + +ethtool +------- +The driver utilizes the ethtool interface for driver configuration and +diagnostics, as well as displaying statistical information. The latest ethtool +version is required for this functionality. Download it at: +https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/network/ethtool/ + +FCoE +---- +The ixgbe driver supports Fiber Channel over Ethernet (FCoE) and Data Center +Bridging (DCB). This code has no default effect on the regular driver +operation. Configuring DCB and FCoE is outside the scope of this README. Refer +to http://www.open-fcoe.org/ for FCoE project information and contact +ixgbe-eedc@lists.sourceforge.net for DCB information. + +MAC and VLAN anti-spoofing feature +---------------------------------- +When a malicious driver attempts to send a spoofed packet, it is dropped by the +hardware and not transmitted. + +An interrupt is sent to the PF driver notifying it of the spoof attempt. When a +spoofed packet is detected, the PF driver will send the following message to +the system log (displayed by the "dmesg" command):: + + ixgbe ethX: ixgbe_spoof_check: n spoofed packets detected + +where "x" is the PF interface number; and "n" is number of spoofed packets. +NOTE: This feature can be disabled for a specific Virtual Function (VF):: + + ip link set <pf dev> vf <vf id> spoofchk {off|on} + + +Known Issues/Troubleshooting +============================ + +Enabling SR-IOV in a 64-bit Microsoft* Windows Server* 2012/R2 guest OS +----------------------------------------------------------------------- +Linux KVM Hypervisor/VMM supports direct assignment of a PCIe device to a VM. +This includes traditional PCIe devices, as well as SR-IOV-capable devices based +on the Intel Ethernet Controller XL710. + + +Support +======= +For general information, go to the Intel support website at: + +https://www.intel.com/support/ + +or the Intel Wired Networking project hosted by Sourceforge at: + +https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000 + +If an issue is identified with the released source code on a supported kernel +with a supported adapter, email the specific information related to the issue +to e1000-devel@lists.sf.net. diff --git a/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.txt b/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.txt deleted file mode 100644 index 687835415707..000000000000 --- a/Documentation/networking/ixgbe.txt +++ /dev/null @@ -1,349 +0,0 @@ -Linux* Base Driver for the Intel(R) Ethernet 10 Gigabit PCI Express Family of -Adapters -============================================================================= - -Intel 10 Gigabit Linux driver. -Copyright(c) 1999 - 2013 Intel Corporation. - -Contents -======== - -- Identifying Your Adapter -- Additional Configurations -- Performance Tuning -- Known Issues -- Support - -Identifying Your Adapter -======================== - -The driver in this release is compatible with 82598, 82599 and X540-based -Intel Network Connections. - -For more information on how to identify your adapter, go to the Adapter & -Driver ID Guide at: - - http://support.intel.com/support/network/sb/CS-012904.htm - -SFP+ Devices with Pluggable Optics ----------------------------------- - -82599-BASED ADAPTERS - -NOTES: If your 82599-based Intel(R) Network Adapter came with Intel optics, or -is an Intel(R) Ethernet Server Adapter X520-2, then it only supports Intel -optics and/or the direct attach cables listed below. - -When 82599-based SFP+ devices are connected back to back, they should be set to -the same Speed setting via ethtool.

Every +open-source community is unique and the Linux kernel is no exception. +Because of this, this document describes how we in the Linux kernel +community will interpret it. We also do not expect this interpretation +to be static over time, and will adjust it as needed. + +The Linux kernel development effort is a very personal process compared +to "traditional" ways of developing software. Your contributions and +ideas behind them will be carefully reviewed, often resulting in +critique and criticism. The review will almost always require +improvements before the material can be included in the +kernel. Know that this happens because everyone involved wants to see +the best possible solution for the overall success of Linux. This +development process has been proven to create the most robust operating +system kernel ever, and we do not want to do anything to cause the +quality of submission and eventual result to ever decrease. + +Maintainers +----------- + +The Code of Conduct uses the term "maintainers" numerous times. In the +kernel community, a "maintainer" is anyone who is responsible for a +subsystem, driver, or file, and is listed in the MAINTAINERS file in the +kernel source tree. + +Responsibilities +---------------- + +The Code of Conduct mentions rights and responsibilities for +maintainers, and this needs some further clarifications. + +First and foremost, it is a reasonable expectation to have maintainers +lead by example. + +That being said, our community is vast and broad, and there is no new +requirement for maintainers to unilaterally handle how other people +behave in the parts of the community where they are active. That +responsibility is upon all of us, and ultimately the Code of Conduct +documents final escalation paths in case of unresolved concerns +regarding conduct issues. + +Maintainers should be willing to help when problems occur, and work with +others in the community when needed. Do not be afraid to reach out to +the Technical Advisory Board (TAB) or other maintainers if you're +uncertain how to handle situations that come up. It will not be +considered a violation report unless you want it to be. If you are +uncertain about approaching the TAB or any other maintainers, please +reach out to our conflict mediator, Mishi Choudhary <mishi@linux.com>. + +In the end, "be kind to each other" is really what the end goal is for +everybody. We know everyone is human and we all fail at times, but the +primary goal for all of us should be to work toward amicable resolutions +of problems. Enforcement of the code of conduct will only be a last +resort option. + +Our goal of creating a robust and technically advanced operating system +and the technical complexity involved naturally require expertise and +decision-making. + +The required expertise varies depending on the area of contribution. It +is determined mainly by context and technical complexity and only +secondary by the expectations of contributors and maintainers. + +Both the expertise expectations and decision-making are subject to +discussion, but at the very end there is a basic necessity to be able to +make decisions in order to make progress. This prerogative is in the +hands of maintainers and project's leadership and is expected to be used +in good faith. + +As a consequence, setting expertise expectations, making decisions and +rejecting unsuitable contributions are not viewed as a violation of the +Code of Conduct. + +While maintainers are in general welcoming to newcomers, their capacity +of helping contributors overcome the entry hurdles is limited, so they +have to set priorities. This, also, is not to be seen as a violation of +the Code of Conduct. The kernel community is aware of that and provides +entry level programs in various forms like kernelnewbies.org. + +Scope +----- + +The Linux kernel community primarily interacts on a set of public email +lists distributed around a number of different servers controlled by a +number of different companies or individuals. All of these lists are +defined in the MAINTAINERS file in the kernel source tree. Any emails +sent to those mailing lists are considered covered by the Code of +Conduct. + +Developers who use the kernel.org bugzilla, and other subsystem bugzilla +or bug tracking tools should follow the guidelines of the Code of +Conduct. The Linux kernel community does not have an "official" project +email address, or "official" social media address. Any activity +performed using a kernel.org email account must follow the Code of +Conduct as published for kernel.org, just as any individual using a +corporate email account must follow the specific rules of that +corporation. + +The Code of Conduct does not prohibit continuing to include names, email +addresses, and associated comments in mailing list messages, kernel +change log messages, or code comments. + +Interaction in other forums is covered by whatever rules apply to said +forums and is in general not covered by the Code of Conduct. Exceptions +may be considered for extreme circumstances. + +Contributions submitted for the kernel should use appropriate language. +Content that already exists predating the Code of Conduct will not be +addressed now as a violation. Inappropriate language can be seen as a +bug, though; such bugs will be fixed more quickly if any interested +parties submit patches to that effect. Expressions that are currently +part of the user/kernel API, or reflect terminology used in published +standards or specifications, are not considered bugs. + +Enforcement +----------- + +The address listed in the Code of Conduct goes to the Code of Conduct +Committee. The exact members receiving these emails at any given time +are listed at https://kernel.org/code-of-conduct.html. Members can not +access reports made before they joined or after they have left the +committee. + +The initial Code of Conduct Committee consists of volunteer members of +the TAB, as well as a professional mediator acting as a neutral third +party. The first task of the committee is to establish documented +processes, which will be made public. + +Any member of the committee, including the mediator, can be contacted +directly if a reporter does not wish to include the full committee in a +complaint or concern. + +The Code of Conduct Committee reviews the cases according to the +processes (see above) and consults with the TAB as needed and +appropriate, for instance to request and receive information about the +kernel community. + +Any decisions by the committee will be brought to the TAB, for +implementation of enforcement with the relevant maintainers if needed. +A decision by the Code of Conduct Committee can be overturned by the TAB +by a two-thirds vote. + +At quarterly intervals, the Code of Conduct Committee and TAB will +provide a report summarizing the anonymised reports that the Code of +Conduct committee has received and their status, as well details of any +overridden decisions including complete and identifiable voting details. + +We expect to establish a different process for Code of Conduct Committee +staffing beyond the bootstrap period.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +===================================================================== +Deprecated Interfaces, Language Features, Attributes, and Conventions +===================================================================== + +In a perfect world, it would be possible to convert all instances of +some deprecated API into the new API and entirely remove the old API in +a single development cycle. However, due to the size of the kernel, the +maintainership hierarchy, and timing, it's not always feasible to do these +kinds of conversions at once. This means that new instances may sneak into +the kernel while old ones are being removed, only making the amount of +work to remove the API grow. In order to educate developers about what +has been deprecated and why, this list has been created as a place to +point when uses of deprecated things are proposed for inclusion in the +kernel. + +__deprecated +------------ +While this attribute does visually mark an interface as deprecated, +it `does not produce warnings during builds any more +<https://git.kernel.org/linus/771c035372a036f83353eef46dbb829780330234>`_ +because one of the standing goals of the kernel is to build without +warnings and no one was actually doing anything to remove these deprecated +interfaces. While using `__deprecated` is nice to note an old API in +a header file, it isn't the full solution. Such interfaces must either +be fully removed from the kernel, or added to this file to discourage +others from using them in the future. + +open-coded arithmetic in allocator arguments +-------------------------------------------- +Dynamic size calculations (especially multiplication) should not be +performed in memory allocator (or similar) function arguments due to the +risk of them overflowing. This could lead to values wrapping around and a +smaller allocation being made than the caller was expecting. Using those +allocations could lead to linear overflows of heap memory and other +misbehaviors. (One exception to this is literal values where the compiler +can warn if they might overflow. Though using literals for arguments as +suggested below is also harmless.) + +For example, do not use ``count * size`` as an argument, as in:: + + foo = kmalloc(count * size, GFP_KERNEL); + +Instead, the 2-factor form of the allocator should be used:: + + foo = kmalloc_array(count, size, GFP_KERNEL); + +If no 2-factor form is available, the saturate-on-overflow helpers should +be used:: + + bar = vmalloc(array_size(count, size)); + +Another common case to avoid is calculating the size of a structure with +a trailing array of others structures, as in:: + + header = kzalloc(sizeof(*header) + count * sizeof(*header->item), + GFP_KERNEL); + +Instead, use the helper:: + + header = kzalloc(struct_size(header, item, count), GFP_KERNEL); + +See :c:func:`array_size`, :c:func:`array3_size`, and :c:func:`struct_size`, +for more details as well as the related :c:func:`check_add_overflow` and +:c:func:`check_mul_overflow` family of functions. + +simple_strtol(), simple_strtoll(), simple_strtoul(), simple_strtoull() +---------------------------------------------------------------------- +The :c:func:`simple_strtol`, :c:func:`simple_strtoll`, +:c:func:`simple_strtoul`, and :c:func:`simple_strtoull` functions +explicitly ignore overflows, which may lead to unexpected results +in callers. The respective :c:func:`kstrtol`, :c:func:`kstrtoll`, +:c:func:`kstrtoul`, and :c:func:`kstrtoull` functions tend to be the +correct replacements, though note that those require the string to be +NUL or newline terminated. + +strcpy() +-------- +:c:func:`strcpy` performs no bounds checking on the destination +buffer. This could result in linear overflows beyond the +end of the buffer, leading to all kinds of misbehaviors. While +`CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y` and various compiler flags help reduce the +risk of using this function, there is no good reason to add new uses of +this function. The safe replacement is :c:func:`strscpy`. + +strncpy() on NUL-terminated strings +----------------------------------- +Use of :c:func:`strncpy` does not guarantee that the destination buffer +will be NUL terminated. This can lead to various linear read overflows +and other misbehavior due to the missing termination. It also NUL-pads the +destination buffer if the source contents are shorter than the destination +buffer size, which may be a needless performance penalty for callers using +only NUL-terminated strings. The safe replacement is :c:func:`strscpy`. +(Users of :c:func:`strscpy` still needing NUL-padding will need an +explicit :c:func:`memset` added.) + +If a caller is using non-NUL-terminated strings, :c:func:`strncpy()` can +still be used, but destinations should be marked with the `__nonstring +<https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Common-Variable-Attributes.html>`_ +attribute to avoid future compiler warnings. + +strlcpy() +--------- +:c:func:`strlcpy` reads the entire source buffer first, possibly exceeding +the given limit of bytes to copy. This is inefficient and can lead to +linear read overflows if a source string is not NUL-terminated. The +safe replacement is :c:func:`strscpy`. + +Variable Length Arrays (VLAs) +----------------------------- +Using stack VLAs produces much worse machine code than statically +sized stack arrays. While these non-trivial `performance issues +<https://git.kernel.org/linus/02361bc77888>`_ are reason enough to +eliminate VLAs, they are also a security risk. Dynamic growth of a stack +array may exceed the remaining memory in the stack segment.
