[ Upstream commit 68468d8c4cd4222a4ca1f185ab5a1c14480d078c ]

veth being NETIF_F_LLTX enabled, we need to be more careful
whenever we read/write rq-&gt;rx_notify_masked.

<title>veth: Do not record rx queue hint in veth_xmit</title>

<id>urn:sha1:bf8963ea39ecfd1bddc657a81f1d657b43c950e8</id>
<content type='text'>
commit 710ad98c363a66a0cd8526465426c5c5f8377ee0 upstream.

Laurent reported that they have seen a significant amount of TCP retransmissions
at high throughput from applications residing in network namespaces talking to
the outside world via veths. The drops were seen on the qdisc layer (fq_codel,
as per systemd default) of the phys device such as ena or virtio_net due to all
traffic hitting a _single_ TX queue _despite_ multi-queue device. (Note that the
setup was _not_ using XDP on veths as the issue is generic.)

More specifically, after edbea9220251 ("veth: Store queue_mapping independently
of XDP prog presence") which made it all the way back to v4.19.184+,
skb_record_rx_queue() would set skb-&gt;queue_mapping to 1 (given 1 RX and 1 TX
queue by default for veths) instead of leaving at 0.

This is eventually retained and callbacks like ena_select_queue() will also pick
single queue via netdev_core_pick_tx()'s ndo_select_queue() once all the traffic
is forwarded to that device via upper stack or other means. Similarly, for others
not implementing ndo_select_queue() if XPS is disabled, netdev_pick_tx() might
call into the skb_tx_hash() and check for prior skb_rx_queue_recorded() as well.

In general, it is a _bad_ idea for virtual devices like veth to mess around with
queue selection [by default]. Given dev-&gt;real_num_tx_queues is by default 1,
the skb-&gt;queue_mapping was left untouched, and so prior to edbea9220251 the
netdev_core_pick_tx() could do its job upon __dev_queue_xmit() on the phys device.

Unbreak this and restore prior behavior by removing the skb_record_rx_queue()
from veth_xmit() altogether.

If the veth peer has an XDP program attached, then it would return the first RX
queue index in xdp_md-&gt;rx_queue_index (unless configured in non-default manner).
However, this is still better than breaking the generic case.

<title>veth: ensure skb entering GRO are not cloned.</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9695b7de5b4760ed22132aca919570c0190cb0ce</id>
<content type='text'>
After commit d3256efd8e8b ("veth: allow enabling NAPI even without XDP"),
if GRO is enabled on a veth device and TSO is disabled on the peer
device, TCP skbs will go through the NAPI callback. If there is no XDP
program attached, the veth code does not perform any share check, and
shared/cloned skbs could enter the GRO engine.

Ignat reported a BUG triggered later-on due to the above condition:

Address the issue by skipping the GRO stage for shared or cloned skbs.
To reduce the chance of OoO, try to unclone the skbs before giving up.

 - use avoid skb_copy and fallback to netif_receive_skb  - Eric

This allows easier XDP usage. The number of default active
queues is not changed: 1 RX and 1 TX so that this does
not introduce overhead on the datapath for queue selection.

This change implements the set_channel() ethtool operation,
preserving the current defaults values and allowing up set
the number of queues in the range set ad device creation
time.

The update operation tries hard to leave the device in a
consistent status in case of errors.

Extract in simpler helpers the code to enable and disable a
range of xdp/napi instance, with the common property that
"disable" helpers can't fail.

Will be used by the next patch. No functional change intended.

<title>veth: always report zero combined channels</title>

veth get_channel currently reports for channels being both RX/TX and
combined. As Jakub noted:

"""
ethtool man page is relatively clear, unfortunately the kernel code
is not and few read the man page. A channel is approximately an IRQ,
not a queue, and IRQ can't be dedicated and combined simultaneously
"""

This patch changes the information exposed by veth_get_channels,
setting max_combined to zero, being more consistent with the above
statement. The ethtool_channels is always cleared by the caller, we just
need to avoid setting the 'combined' fields.

<title>veth: check for NAPI instead of xdp_prog before xmit of XDP frame</title>

The recent patch that tied enabling of veth NAPI to the GRO flag also has
the nice side effect that a veth device can be the target of an
XDP_REDIRECT without an XDP program needing to be loaded on the peer
device. However, the patch adding this extra NAPI mode didn't actually
change the check in veth_xdp_xmit() to also look at the new NAPI pointer,
so let's fix that.

Fixes: 6788fa154546 ("veth: allow enabling NAPI even without XDP")

<title>veth: refine napi usage</title>

<content type='text'>
After the previous patch, when enabling GRO, locally generated
TCP traffic experiences some measurable overhead, as it traverses
the GRO engine without any chance of aggregation.

This change refine the NAPI receive path admission test, to avoid
unnecessary GRO overhead in most scenarios, when GRO is enabled
on a veth peer.

Only skbs that are eligible for aggregation enter the GRO layer,
the others will go through the traditional receive path.
