This is an interpolation of [0] to other Intel Ethernet drivers
(and is (re)based on its code).
The main aim is to keep XDP metadata not only in case with
build_skb(), but also when we do napi_alloc_skb() + memcpy().
All Intel drivers suffers from the same here:
- metadata gets lost on XDP_PASS in legacy-rx;
- excessive headroom allocation on XSK Rx to skbs;
- metadata gets lost on XSK Rx to skbs.
Those get especially actual in XDP Hints upcoming.
I couldn't have addressed the first one for all Intel drivers due to
that they don't reserve any headroom for now in legacy-rx mode even
with XDP enabled. This is hugely wrong, but requires quite a bunch
of work and a separate series. Luckily, ice doesn't suffer from
that.
igc has 1 and 3 already fixed in [0].
From v3 ([1]):
- fix driver name and ixgbe_construct_skb() function name in the
commit message of #9 (Jesper);
- no functional changes.
From v2 (unreleased upstream):
- tweaked 007 to pass bi->xdp directly and simplify code (Maciej);
- picked Michal's Reviewed-by.
From v1 (unreleased upstream):
- drop "fixes" of legacy-rx for i40e, igb and ixgbe since they have
another flaw regarding headroom (see above);
- drop igc cosmetic fixes since they landed upstream incorporated
into Jesper's commits;
- picked one Acked-by from Maciej.

Testing hints:
Setup an XDP and AF_XDP program which will prepend metadata at the
front of the frames and return XDP_PASS, then check that metadata
is present after frames reach kernel network stack.

pass bi->xdp as an argument instead of bi. We can also call

In "legacy-rx" mode represented by ice_construct_skb(), we can
still use XDP (and XDP metadata), but after XDP_PASS the metadata
will be lost as it doesn't get copied to the skb.
Copy it along with the frame headers. Account its size on skb
allocation, and when copying just treat it as a part of the frame
and do a pull after to "move" it to the "reserved" zone.
Point net_prefetch() to xdp->data_meta instead of data. This won't
change anything when the meta is not here, but will save some cache
misses otherwise.

Having headroom is important for netstack in general. When packet will grow we avoid realloc of SKB. Use-case could also be cpumap or veth redirect, or XDP-generic, that expect this headroom.

I disagree with this assumption, that headroom is not needed by netstack.
Why "no need for that at all" for netstack?
napi_alloc_skb() in our particular case will reserve 64 bytes, it is
sufficient for {TCP,UDP,SCTP,...}/IPv{4,6} etc.
Having headroom is important for netstack in general. When packet will
grow we avoid realloc of SKB. Use-case could also be cpumap or veth
redirect, or XDP-generic, that expect this headroom.
Well, those are not common cases at all.
Allocating 256 bytes more for some hypothetical usecases (and having
320 in total) is more expensive than expanding headroom in-place.
I don't know any other drivers or ifaces which reserve
XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM just for the case of using both driver-side
and generic XDP at the same time. To be more precise, I can't
remember any driver which would check whether generic XDP is enabled
for its netdev(s).
As a second option, I was trying to get exactly XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM
of headroom, but this involves either __alloc_skb() which is slower
than napi_alloc_skb(), or
skb = napi_alloc_skb(napi, xdp->data_end -
xdp->data_hard_start -
NET_SKB_PAD);
skb_reserve(skb, xdp->data_meta - xdp->data_hard_start -
NET_SKB_PAD);
Doesn't look good for me.
We could probably introduce a version of napi_alloc_skb() which
wouldn't reserve any headroom for you to have more control over it,
but that's more global material than these local fixes I'd say.

napi_alloc_skb() in our particular case will reserve 64 bytes, it is
sufficient for {TCP,UDP,SCTP,...}/IPv{4,6} etc.
My bad, I misunderstood you. I now see (looking at code) that (as you say) 64 bytes of headroom *is* reserved (in bottom of __napi_alloc_skb).
Thus, the SKB *do* have headroom, so this patch should be fine.
Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <redacted>
Do watch out that 64 bytes is not always enough. Notice the define LL_MAX_HEADER and MAX_HEADER in include/linux/netdevice.h (that tries to determine worst-case header length) which is above 64 bytes. It is also affected by HyperV and WiFi configs.
{__,}napi_alloc_skb() allocates and reserves additional NET_SKB_PAD
+ NET_IP_ALIGN for any skb.
OTOH, igc_construct_skb_zc() currently allocates and reserves
additional `xdp->data_meta - xdp->data_hard_start`, which is about
XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM for XSK frames.
There's no need for that at all as the frame is post-XDP and will
go only to the networking stack core.
Pass the size of the actual data only (+ meta) to
__napi_alloc_skb() and don't reserve anything. This will give
enough headroom for stack processing.
Also, net_prefetch() xdp->data_meta and align the copy size to
speed-up memcpy() a little and better match igc_costruct_skb().

Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v4 net-next 0/9] net: intel: napi_alloc_skb()
vs metadata
This is an interpolation of [0] to other Intel Ethernet drivers (and is (re)based
on its code).
The main aim is to keep XDP metadata not only in case with build_skb(), but
also when we do napi_alloc_skb() + memcpy().
All Intel drivers suffers from the same here:
- metadata gets lost on XDP_PASS in legacy-rx;
- excessive headroom allocation on XSK Rx to skbs;
- metadata gets lost on XSK Rx to skbs.
Those get especially actual in XDP Hints upcoming.
I couldn't have addressed the first one for all Intel drivers due to that they
don't reserve any headroom for now in legacy-rx mode even with XDP
enabled. This is hugely wrong, but requires quite a bunch of work and a
separate series. Luckily, ice doesn't suffer from that.
igc has 1 and 3 already fixed in [0].
From v3 ([1]):
- fix driver name and ixgbe_construct_skb() function name in the
commit message of #9 (Jesper);
- no functional changes.
From v2 (unreleased upstream):
- tweaked 007 to pass bi->xdp directly and simplify code (Maciej);
- picked Michal's Reviewed-by.
From v1 (unreleased upstream):
- drop "fixes" of legacy-rx for i40e, igb and ixgbe since they have
another flaw regarding headroom (see above);
- drop igc cosmetic fixes since they landed upstream incorporated
into Jesper's commits;
- picked one Acked-by from Maciej.

Subject: [Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH v4 net-next 3/9] ice: respect metadata in
legacy-rx/ice_construct_skb()
In "legacy-rx" mode represented by ice_construct_skb(), we can still use XDP
(and XDP metadata), but after XDP_PASS the metadata will be lost as it
doesn't get copied to the skb.
Copy it along with the frame headers. Account its size on skb allocation, and
when copying just treat it as a part of the frame and do a pull after to "move"
it to the "reserved" zone.
Point net_prefetch() to xdp->data_meta instead of data. This won't change
anything when the meta is not here, but will save some cache misses
otherwise.
