and ability to refer to page pool instances in uAPIs create
IDs for page pools.

net: add skb_segment kunit test

2023-10-11T09:39:01+00:00

Add unit testing for skb segment. This function is exercised by many
different code paths, such as GSO_PARTIAL or GSO_BY_FRAGS, linear
(with or without head_frag), frags or frag_list skbs, etc.

It is infeasible to manually run tests that cover all code paths when
making changes. The long and complex function also makes it hard to
establish through analysis alone that a patch has no unintended
side-effects.

Add code coverage through kunit regression testing. Introduce kunit
infrastructure for tests under net/core, and add this first test.

This first skb_segment test exercises a simple case: a linear skb.
Follow-on patches will parametrize the test and add more variants.

Tested: Built and ran the test with

    make ARCH=um mrproper

    ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \
        --kconfig_add CONFIG_NET=y \
        --kconfig_add CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y \

netdev-genl: create a simple family for netdev stuff

2023-02-03T04:48:23+00:00

Add a Netlink spec-compatible family for netdevs.
This is a very simple implementation without much
thought going into it.

It allows us to reap all the benefits of Netlink specs,
one can use the generic client to issue the commands:

  $ ./cli.py --spec netdev.yaml --dump dev_get
  [{'ifindex': 1, 'xdp-features': set()},
   {'ifindex': 2, 'xdp-features': {'basic', 'ndo-xmit', 'redirect'}},
   {'ifindex': 3, 'xdp-features': {'rx-sg'}}]

the generic python library does not have flags-by-name
support, yet, but we also don't have to carry strings
in the messages, as user space can get the names from
the spec.

devlink: move code to a dedicated directory

2023-01-06T06:12:00+00:00

The devlink code is hard to navigate with 13kLoC in one file.
I really like the way Michal split the ethtool into per-command
files and core. It'd probably be too much to split it all up,
but we can at least separate the core parts out of the per-cmd
implementations and put it in a directory so that new commands
can be separate files.

Move the code, subsequent commit will do a partial split.

net: skb: export skb drop reaons to user by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM

2022-09-07T14:28:08+00:00

As Eric reported, the 'reason' field is not presented when trace the
kfree_skb event by perf:

$ perf record -e skb:kfree_skb -a sleep 10
$ perf script
  ip_defrag 14605 [021]   221.614303:   skb:kfree_skb:
  skbaddr=0xffff9d2851242700 protocol=34525 location=0xffffffffa39346b1
  reason:

The cause seems to be passing kernel address directly to TP_printk(),
which is not right. As the enum 'skb_drop_reason' is not exported to
user space through TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), perf can't get the drop reason
string from the 'reason' field, which is a number.

Therefore, we introduce the macro DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), which is used
to define the trace enum by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(). With the help of
DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), now we can remove the auto-generate that we
introduced in the commit ec43908dd556
("net: skb: use auto-generation to convert skb drop reason to string"),
and define the string array 'drop_reasons'.

Hmmmm...now we come back to the situation that have to maintain drop
reasons in both enum skb_drop_reason and DEFINE_DROP_REASON. But they
are both in dropreason.h, which makes it easier.

After this commit, now the format of kfree_skb is like this:

$ cat /tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/format
name: kfree_skb
ID: 1524
format:
        field:unsigned short common_type;       offset:0;       size:2; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_flags;       offset:2;       size:1; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;       offset:3;       size:1; signed:0;
        field:int common_pid;   offset:4;       size:4; signed:1;

        field:void * skbaddr;   offset:8;       size:8; signed:0;
        field:void * location;  offset:16;      size:8; signed:0;
        field:unsigned short protocol;  offset:24;      size:2; signed:0;
        field:enum skb_drop_reason reason;      offset:28;      size:4; signed:0;

print fmt: "skbaddr=%p protocol=%u location=%p reason: %s", REC->skbaddr, REC->protocol, REC->location, __print_symbolic(REC->reason, { 1, "NOT_SPECIFIED" }, { 2, "NO_SOCKET" } ......

net: skb: use auto-generation to convert skb drop reason to string

2022-06-07T10:51:41+00:00

It is annoying to add new skb drop reasons to 'enum skb_drop_reason'
and TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON in trace/event/skb.h, and it's easy to forget
to add the new reasons we added to TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON.

TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON is used to convert drop reason of type number
to string. For now, the string we passed to user space is exactly the
same as the name in 'enum skb_drop_reason' with a 'SKB_DROP_REASON_'
prefix. Therefore, we can use 'auto-generation' to generate these
drop reasons to string at build time.

The new source 'dropreason_str.c' will be auto generated during build
time, which contains the string array
'const char * const drop_reasons[]'.
