+Network classifier cgroup
+-------------------------
+
+The Network classifier cgroup provides an interface to
+tag network packets with a class identifier (classid).
+
+The Traffic Controller (tc) can be used to assign
+different priorities to packets from different cgroups.
+
+Creating a net_cls cgroups instance creates a net_cls.classid file.
+This net_cls.classid value is initialized to 0.
+
+You can write hexadecimal values to net_cls.classid; the format for these
+values is 0xAAAABBBB; AAAA is the major handle number and BBBB
+is the minor handle number.
+Reading net_cls.classid yields a decimal result.
+
+Example:
+mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
+mount -t cgroup -onet_cls net_cls /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
+mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0

+This file documents how to use memory mapped I/O with netlink.
+
+Author: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
+
+Overview
+--------
+
+Memory mapped netlink I/O can be used to increase throughput and decrease
+overhead of unicast receive and transmit operations. Some netlink subsystems
+require high throughput, these are mainly the netfilter subsystems
+nfnetlink_queue and nfnetlink_log, but it can also help speed up large
+dump operations of f.i. the routing database.
+
+Memory mapped netlink I/O used two circular ring buffers for RX and TX which
+are mapped into the processes address space.
+
+The RX ring is used by the kernel to directly construct netlink messages into
+user-space memory without copying them as done with regular socket I/O,
+additionally as long as the ring contains messages no recvmsg() or poll()
+syscalls have to be issued by user-space to get more message.
+
+The TX ring is used to process messages directly from user-space memory, the
+kernel processes all messages contained in the ring using a single sendmsg()
+call.
+
+Usage overview
+--------------
+
+In order to use memory mapped netlink I/O, user-space needs three main changes:
+
+- ring setup
+- conversion of the RX path to get messages from the ring instead of recvmsg()
+- conversion of the TX path to construct messages into the ring
+
+Ring setup is done using setsockopt() to provide the ring parameters to the
+kernel, then a call to mmap() to map the ring into the processes address space:
+
+- setsockopt(fd, SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_RX_RING, &params, sizeof(params));
+- setsockopt(fd, SOL_NETLINK, NETLINK_TX_RING, &params, sizeof(params));
+- ring = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_READ | PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED, fd, 0)
+
+Usage of either ring is optional, but even if only the RX ring is used the
+mapping still needs to be writable in order to update the frame status after
+processing.
+
+Conversion of the reception path involves calling poll() on the file
+descriptor, once the socket is readable the frames from the ring are
+processsed in order until no more messages are available, as indicated by
+a status word in the frame header.
+
+On kernel side, in order to make use of memory mapped I/O on receive, the
+originating netlink subsystem needs to support memory mapped I/O, otherwise
+it will use an allocated socket buffer as usual and the contents will be
+ copied to the ring on transmission, nullifying most of the performance gains.
+Dumps of kernel databases automatically support memory mapped I/O.
+
+Conversion of the transmit path involves changing message contruction to
+use memory from the TX ring instead of (usually) a buffer declared on the
+stack and setting up the frame header approriately. Optionally poll() can
+be used to wait for free frames in the TX ring.
+
+Structured and definitions for using memory mapped I/O are contained in
+<linux/netlink.h>.
+
+RX and TX rings
+----------------
+
+Each ring contains a number of continous memory blocks, containing frames of
+fixed size dependant on the parameters used for ring setup.
+
+Ring:	[ block 0 ]
+		[ frame 0 ]
+		[ frame 1 ]
+	[ block 1 ]
+		[ frame 2 ]
+		[ frame 3 ]
+	...
+	[ block n ]
+		[ frame 2 * n ]
+		[ frame 2 * n + 1 ]
+
+The blocks are only visible to the kernel, from the point of view of user-space
+the ring just contains the frames in a continous memory zone.
+
+The ring parameters used for setting up the ring are defined as follows:
+
+struct nl_mmap_req {
+	unsigned int	nm_block_size;
+	unsigned int	nm_block_nr;
+	unsigned int	nm_frame_size;
+	unsigned int	nm_frame_nr;
+};
+
+Frames are grouped into blocks, where each block is a continous region of memory
+and holds nm_block_size / nm_frame_size frames. The total number of frames in
+the ring is nm_frame_nr. The following invariants hold:
+
+- frames_per_block = nm_block_size / nm_frame_size
+
+- nm_frame_nr = frames_per_block * nm_block_nr
+
+Some parameters are constrained, specifically:
+
+- nm_block_size must be a multiple of the architectures memory page size.
+  The getpagesize() function can be used to get the page size.
+
+- nm_frame_size must be equal or larger to NL_MMAP_HDRLEN, IOW a frame must be
+  able to hold at least the frame header
+
+- nm_frame_size must be smaller or equal to nm_block_size
+
+- nm_frame_size must be a multiple of NL_MMAP_MSG_ALIGNMENT
+
+- nm_frame_nr must equal the actual number of frames as specified above.
+
+When the kernel can't allocate phsyically continous memory for a ring block,
+it will fall back to use physically discontinous memory. This might affect
+performance negatively, in order to avoid this the nm_frame_size parameter
+should be chosen to be as small as possible for the required frame size and
+the number of blocks should be increased instead.
+
+Ring frames
+------------
+
+Each frames contain a frame header, consisting of a synchronization word and some
+meta-data, and the message itself.
+
+Frame:	[ header message ]
+
+The frame header is defined as follows:
+
+struct nl_mmap_hdr {
+	unsigned int	nm_status;
+	unsigned int	nm_len;
+	__u32		nm_group;
+	/* credentials */
+	__u32		nm_pid;
+	__u32		nm_uid;
+	__u32		nm_gid;
+};
+
+- nm_status is used for synchronizing processing between the kernel and user-
+  space and specifies ownership of the frame as well as the operation to perform
+
+- nm_len contains the length of the message contained in the data area
+
+- nm_group specified the destination multicast group of message
+
+- nm_pid, nm_uid and nm_gid contain the netlink pid, UID and GID of the sending
+  process. These values correspond to the data available using SOCK_PASSCRED in
+  the SCM_CREDENTIALS cmsg.
+
+The possible values in the status word are:
+
+- NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED:
+	RX ring:	frame belongs to the kernel and contains no message
+			for user-space. Approriate action is to invoke poll()
+			to wait for new messages.
+
+	TX ring:	frame belongs to user-space and can be used for
+			message construction.
+
+- NL_MMAP_STATUS_RESERVED:
+	RX ring only:	frame is currently used by the kernel for message
+			construction and contains no valid message yet.
+			Appropriate action is to invoke poll() to wait for
+			new messages.
+
+- NL_MMAP_STATUS_VALID:
+	RX ring:	frame contains a valid message. Approriate action is
+			to process the message and release the frame back to
+			the kernel by setting the status to
+			NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED or queue the frame by setting the
+			status to NL_MMAP_STATUS_SKIP.
+
+	TX ring:	the frame contains a valid message from user-space to
+			be processed by the kernel. After completing processing
+			the kernel will release the frame back to user-space by
+			setting the status to NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED.
+
+- NL_MMAP_STATUS_COPY:
+	RX ring only:	a message is ready to be processed but could not be
+			stored in the ring, either because it exceeded the
+			frame size or because the originating subsystem does
+			not support memory mapped I/O. Appropriate action is
+			to invoke recvmsg() to receive the message and release
+			the frame back to the kernel by setting the status to
+			NL_MMAP_STATUS_UNUSED.
+
+- NL_MMAP_STATUS_SKIP:
+	RX ring only:	user-space queued the message for later processing, but
+			processed some messages following it in the ring. The
+			kernel should skip this frame when looking for unused
+			frames.
+
+The data area of a frame begins at a offset of NL_MMAP_HDRLEN relative to the
+frame header.
+
+TX limitations
+--------------
+
+Kernel processing usually involves validation of the message received by
+user-space, then processing its contents. The kernel must assure that
+userspace is not able to modify the message contents after they have been
+validated. In order to do so, the message is copied from the ring frame
+to an allocated buffer if either of these conditions is false:
+
+- only a single mapping of the ring exists
+- the file descriptor is not shared between processes
+
+This means that for threaded programs, the kernel will fall back to copying.

+ AF_PACKET TPACKET_V3 example
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+AF_PACKET's TPACKET_V3 ring buffer can be configured to use non-static frame
+sizes by doing it's own memory management. It is based on blocks where polling
+works on a per block basis instead of per ring as in TPACKET_V2 and predecessor.
+
+It is said that TPACKET_V3 brings the following benefits:
+ *) ~15 - 20% reduction in CPU-usage
+ *) ~20% increase in packet capture rate
+ *) ~2x increase in packet density
+ *) Port aggregation analysis
+ *) Non static frame size to capture entire packet payload
+
+So it seems to be a good candidate to be used with packet fanout.

+it with gcc -Wall -O2 blob.c, and try things like "./a.out eth0", etc.):

-If PACKET_TIMESTAMP is not set, a software timestamp generated inside

+For the mmap(2)ed ring buffers, such timestamps are stored in the
+tpacket{,2,3}_hdr structure's tp_sec and tp_{n,u}sec members. To determine
+what kind of timestamp has been reported, the tp_status field is binary |'ed
+with the following possible bits ...
+

+... that are equivalent to its SOF_TIMESTAMPING_* counterparts. For the

+then this means that a software fallback was invoked *within* PF_PACKET's
+processing code (less precise).
+
+Getting timestamps for the TX_RING works as follows: i) fill the ring frames,
+ii) call sendto() e.g. in blocking mode, iii) wait for status of relevant
+frames to be updated resp. the frame handed over to the application, iv) walk
+through the frames to pick up the individual hw/sw timestamps.
+
+Only (!) if transmit timestamping is enabled, then these bits are combined
+with binary | with TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE, so you must check for that in your
+application (e.g. !(tp_status & (TP_STATUS_SEND_REQUEST | TP_STATUS_SENDING))
+in a first step to see if the frame belongs to the application, and then
+one can extract the type of timestamp in a second step from tp_status)!
+
+If you don't care about them, thus having it disabled, checking for
+TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE resp. TP_STATUS_WRONG_FORMAT is sufficient. If in the
+TX_RING part only TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE is set, then the tp_sec and tp_{n,u}sec
+members do not contain a valid value. For TX_RINGs, by default no timestamp
+is generated!

+when it is carrying PTP packets or TCP/UDP/ICMP over IP.
+These are not available on GMAC Synopsys chips older than the 3.50.
+At probe time the driver will decide if these can be actually used.
+This support also is mandatory for PTPv2 because the extra descriptors 6 and 7
+are used for saving the hardware timestamps.
+
+8) Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
+The driver supports the IEEE 1588-2002, Precision Time Protocol (PTP),
+which enables precise synchronization of clocks in measurement and
+control systems implemented with technologies such as network
+communication.
+
+In addition to the basic timestamp features mentioned in IEEE 1588-2002
+Timestamps, new GMAC cores support the advanced timestamp features.
+IEEE 1588-2008 that can be enabled when configure the Kernel.
+
+9) SGMII/RGMII supports
+New GMAC devices provide own way to manage RGMII/SGMII.
+This information is available at run-time by looking at the
+HW capability register. This means that the stmmac can manage
+auto-negotiation and link status w/o using the PHYLIB stuff
+In fact, the HW provides a subset of extended registers to
+restart the ANE, verify Full/Half duplex mode and Speed.
+Also thanks to these registers it is possible to look at the
+Auto-negotiated Link Parter Ability.
+
+10) TODO:
 o XGMAC is not supported.
- o Add the PTP - precision time protocol
+ o Complete the TBI & RTBI support.
+ o extened VLAN support for 3.70a SYNP GMAC.
