Hi This series first adds supports for the ALE feature to rate limit number ingress broadcast(BC)/multicast(MC) packets per/sec which main purpose is BC/MC storm prevention.
And then enables corresponding support for ingress broadcast(BC)/multicast(MC) rate limiting for TI CPSW switchdev and AM65x/J221E CPSW_NUSS drivers by implementing HW offload for simple tc-flower policer with matches on dst_mac: - ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff has to be used for BC rate limiting - 01:00:00:00:00:00 fixed value has to be used for MC rate limiting Hence tc policer defines rate limit in terms of bits per second, but the ALE supports limiting in terms of packets per second - the rate limit bits/sec is converted to number of packets per second assuming minimum Ethernet packet size ETH_ZLEN=60 bytes. The solution inspired patch from Vladimir Oltean [1]. Examples: - BC rate limit to 1000pps: tc qdisc add dev eth0 clsact tc filter add dev eth0 ingress flower skip_sw dst_mac ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff \ action police rate 480kbit burst 64k rate 480kbit - 1000pps * 60 bytes * 8, burst - not used. - MC rate limit to 20000pps: tc qdisc add dev eth0 clsact tc filter add dev eth0 ingress flower skip_sw dst_mac 01:00:00:00:00:00 \ action police rate 9600kbit burst 64k rate 9600kbit - 20000pps * 60 bytes * 8, burst - not used. - show: tc filter show dev eth0 ingress filter protocol all pref 49151 flower chain 0 filter protocol all pref 49151 flower chain 0 handle 0x1 dst_mac ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff skip_sw in_hw in_hw_count 1 action order 1: police 0x2 rate 480Kbit burst 64Kb mtu 2Kb action reclassify overhead 0b ref 1 bind 1 filter protocol all pref 49152 flower chain 0 filter protocol all pref 49152 flower chain 0 handle 0x1 dst_mac 01:00:00:00:00:00 skip_sw in_hw in_hw_count 1 action order 1: police 0x1 rate 9600Kbit burst 64Kb mtu 2Kb action reclassify overhead 0b ref 1 bind Testing MC with iperf: - client -- setup tc-flower as per above route add -host 239.255.1.3 eth0 iperf -s -B 239.255.1.3 -u -f m & cat /sys/class/net/eth0/statistics/rx_packets - server route add -host 239.255.1.3 eth0 iperf -c 239.255.1.3 -u -f m -i 5 -t 30 -l1472 -b121760000 -t1 //~10000pps [1] https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/1217254/ Grygorii Strashko (3): drivers: net: cpsw: ale: add broadcast/multicast rate limit support net: ethernet: ti: cpsw_new: enable broadcast/multicast rate limit support net: ethernet: ti: am65-cpsw: enable broadcast/multicast rate limit support drivers/net/ethernet/ti/am65-cpsw-qos.c | 148 ++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/am65-cpsw-qos.h | 8 ++ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_ale.c | 66 +++++++++ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_ale.h | 2 + drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_new.c | 4 +- drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_priv.c | 171 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/ethernet/ti/cpsw_priv.h | 8 ++ 7 files changed, 406 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) -- 2.17.1
