[PATCH v4 net 2/4] net: enetc: block concurrent XDP transmissions during ring reconfiguration

From: Wei Fang
Date: Thu Oct 10 2024 - 05:36:38 EST


When testing the XDP_REDIRECT function on the LS1028A platform, we
found a very reproducible issue that the Tx frames can no longer be
sent out even if XDP_REDIRECT is turned off. Specifically, if there
is a lot of traffic on Rx direction, when XDP_REDIRECT is turned on,
the console may display some warnings like "timeout for tx ring #6
clear", and all redirected frames will be dropped, the detailed log
is as follows.

root@ls1028ardb:~# ./xdp-bench redirect eno0 eno2
Redirecting from eno0 (ifindex 3; driver fsl_enetc) to eno2 (ifindex 4; driver fsl_enetc)
[203.849809] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: timeout for tx ring #5 clear
[204.006051] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: timeout for tx ring #6 clear
[204.161944] fsl_enetc 0000:00:00.2 eno2: timeout for tx ring #7 clear
eno0->eno2 1420505 rx/s 1420590 err,drop/s 0 xmit/s
xmit eno0->eno2 0 xmit/s 1420590 drop/s 0 drv_err/s 15.71 bulk-avg
eno0->eno2 1420484 rx/s 1420485 err,drop/s 0 xmit/s
xmit eno0->eno2 0 xmit/s 1420485 drop/s 0 drv_err/s 15.71 bulk-avg

By analyzing the XDP_REDIRECT implementation of enetc driver, the
driver will reconfigure Tx and Rx BD rings when a bpf program is
installed or uninstalled, but there is no mechanisms to block the
redirected frames when enetc driver reconfigures rings. Similarly,
XDP_TX verdicts on received frames can also lead to frames being
enqueued in the Tx rings. Because XDP ignores the state set by the
netif_tx_wake_queue() API, so introduce the ENETC_TX_DOWN flag to
suppress transmission of XDP frames.

v2 changes:
Remove a blank line from the end of enetc_disable_tx_bdrs().
v3 changes:
Block the XDP_TX frames when ENETC_TX_DOWN flag is set.
v4 changes:
1. Modify the title and rephrase the commit message.
2. Move the changes of operation order in enect_stop() and
enetc_stop() to a separated patch (patch 3).
