Implement support for checking if a netdev has XDP and AF_XDP zero copy support. Previously, there was no way to do this other than to try to create an AF_XDP socket on the interface or load an XDP program and see if it worked. This commit changes this by extending existing netdev_features in the following way: * xdp - full XDP support (XDP_{TX, PASS, DROP, ABORT, REDIRECT}) * af-xdp-zc - AF_XDP zero copy support By default these new flags are disabled for all drivers. $ ethtool -k enp1s0f0 Features for enp1s0f0: .. xdp: off [fixed] af-xdp-zc: off [fixed] Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
Turn 'xdp' and 'af-xdp-zc' feature flags on for: - i40e - ice - ixgbe - mlx5. Turn 'xdp' feature flag on for: - igb - tun - veth - dpaa2 - mvneta - mvpp2 - qede - sfc - netsec - cpsw - xen - virtio_net. The first group of NICs is currently visible with ethtool as: $ ethtool -k enp1s0f0 Features for enp1s0f0: .. xdp: on [fixed] af-xdp-zc: on [fixed] whereas for the second group output is as: $ ethtool -k enp1s0f0 Features for enp1s0f0: .. xdp: on [fixed] af-xdp-zc: off [fixed] Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
Change necessary condition check for XSK from ndo functions to netdev_features flags. Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
Add check for full support of XDP in AF_XDP socket bind. To be able to use an AF_XDP socket with zero-copy, there needs to be support for both XDP_REDIRECT in the driver (XDP native mode) and the driver needs to support zero-copy. The problem is that there are drivers out there that only support XDP partially, so it is possible to successfully load the XDP program in native mode, but it will still not be able to support zero-copy as it does not have XDP_REDIRECT support. We can now alleviate this problem by using the new XDP netdev capability that signifies if full XDP support is indeed present. This check can be triggered by a new bind flag called XDP_CHECK_NATIVE_MODE. To simplify usage, this check is triggered automatically from inside libbpf library via turning on the new XDP_CHECK_NATIVE_MODE flag if and only if the driver mode is selected for the socket. As a result, the xsk_bind function decides if the native mode for a given interface makes sense or not using xdp netdev feature flags. Eventually the xsk socket is bound or an error is returned. Apart from this change and to catch all invalid inputs in a single place, an additional check is set to forbid sbk mode and zero copy settings at the same time as that combination makes no sense.

Extend netlink attribute API to put a different attribute into the netlink message (nest{start, end}, string, u32, flag, etc). Add new API to parse attribute array. Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
Add functions to get XDP/XSK modes from netdev feature flags over netlink ethtool family interface. These functions provide functionalities that are going to be used in upcoming changes together constituting new libbpf public API function which informs about key xsk capabilities of given network interface.

Add public xsk API to read supported XDP functions of a netdev: - XDP driver mode (SKB, DRV), - XSK bind mode (COPY, ZEROCOPY). Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
Update xdpsock sample so that it utilizes netlink ethtool interface to get available XDP/XSK modes. This allows to automatically choose the best available mode of operation, if these are not provided explicitly. Signed-off-by: Marek Majtyka <[email protected]>
