[PATCH v4 net-next 01/21] net: Introduce direct data placement tcp offload

Thu Feb 11 16:10:24 EST 2021


This commit introduces direct data placement offload for TCP.
This capability is accompanied by new net_device operations that
configure hardware contexts. There is a context per socket, and a context per DDP
opreation. Additionally, a resynchronization routine is used to assist
hardware handle TCP OOO, and continue the offload.
Furthermore, we let the offloading driver advertise what is the max hw
sectors/segments.

Using this interface, the NIC hardware will scatter TCP payload directly
to the BIO pages according to the command_id.
To maintain the correctness of the network stack, the driver is expected
to construct SKBs that point to the BIO pages.

The SKB passed to the network stack from the driver
represents data as it is on the wire, while it is pointing
directly to data in destination buffers.
As a result, data from page frags should not be copied out to
the linear part. To avoid needless copies, such as when using
skb_condense, we mark the skb->ddp_crc bit. This bit will be
used to indicate both ddp and crc offload (next patch in series).

A follow-up patch will use this interface for DDP in NVMe-TCP.
