This header refers to struct reset_control but doesn't include any reset header. The structure definition is probably somehow indirectly pulled in since no warnings are reported but for the sake of correctness add the forward declaration for struct reset_control.

Some PHYs connected to this ethernet hardware support the WoL feature. But when WoL is enabled and the machine is powered off, the PHY remains waiting for a magic packet at max speed (i.e. 1Gbps), which is a waste of energy. Slow down the PHY speed before stopping the ethernet if WoL is enabled, and save some energy while the machine is powered off or sleeping. Tested using an Armada 370 based board (LS421DE) equipped with a Marvell 88E1518 PHY. Signed-off-by: Daniel González Cabanelas <dgcbueu@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2020-06-25 This series contains updates to i40e driver and removes the individual driver versions from all of the Intel wired LAN drivers. Shiraz moves the client header so that it can easily be shared between the i40e LAN driver and i40iw RDMA driver. Jesse cleans up the unused defines, since they are just dead weight. Alek reduces the unreasonably long wait time for a PF reset after reboot by using jiffies to limit the maximum wait time for the PF reset to succeed. Added additional logging to let the user know when the driver transitions into recovery mode. Adds new device support for our 5 Gbps NICs. Todd adds a check to see if MFS is set after warm reboot and notifies the user when MFS is set to anything lower than the default value. Arkadiusz fixes a possible race condition, where were holding a spin-lock while in atomic context. v2: removed code comments that were no longer applicable in patch 2 of the series. Also removed 'inline' from patch 4 and patch 8 of the series. Also re-arranged code to be able to remove the forward function declarations. Dropped patch 9 of the series, while the author works on cleaning up the commit message. v3: Updated patch 8 description to answer Jakub's questions ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

With legacy PM, drivers themselves were responsible for managing the device's power states and takes care of register states. After upgrading to the generic structure, PCI core will take care of required tasks and drivers should do only device-specific operations. The driver was also calling bnx2x_set_power_state() to set the power state of the device by changing the device's registers' value. It is no more needed. Compile-tested only.

In some occasions task held spinlock (mac_filter_hash_lock), while being rescheduled due to admin queue mutex_lock. The struct i40e_spinlock asq_spinlock, which later expands to struct mutex spinlock. Moved i40e_aq_set_vsi_multicast_promiscuous(), i40e_aq_set_vsi_unicast_promiscuous(), i40e_aq_set_vsi_mc_promisc_on_vlan(), and i40e_aq_set_vsi_uc_promisc_on_vlan() outside of atomic context. Without this patch there is a race condition, which might result in scheduling while in atomic context. The race condition is between the thread, which holds mac_filter_hash_lock, while trying to acquire an admin queue mutex and a thread, which already has said admin queue mutex. The thread, which holds spinlock, fails to acquire the mutex, which causes this thread to sleep.

As with other networking drivers, remove the unnecessary driver version from the Intel drivers. The ethtool driver information and module version will then report the kernel version instead. For ixgbe, i40e and ice drivers, the driver passes the driver version to the firmware to confirm that we are up and running. So we now pass the value of UTS_RELEASE to the firmware. This adminq call is required per the HAS document. The Device then sends an indication to the BMC that the PF driver is present. This is done using Host NC Driver Status Indication in NC-SI Get Link command or via the Host Network Controller Driver Status Change AEN. What the BMC may do with this information is implementation-dependent, but this is a standard NC-SI 1.1 command we honor per the HAS.

Detect and log information about pre-recovery mode when firmware transitions to a recovery mode. When a firmware transitions to a recovery mode it stores a number of unexpected EMP resets in one of its registers. The number of EMP resets ranging from 0x21 to 0x2A indicates that FW transitions to recovery mode. Use these values to emit log entry about transition process. Previously the pre-recovery mode may not have been detected and there was no log entry when NIC was in pre-recovery mode.

Change tin mapping on diffserv3, 4 & 8 for LE PHB support, in essence making LE a member of the Bulk tin. Bulk has the least priority and minimum of 1/16th total bandwidth in the face of higher priority traffic. NB: Diffserv 3 & 4 swap tin 0 & 1 priorities from the default order as found in diffserv8, in case anyone is wondering why it looks a bit odd.

Not quite sure about whether this should go to stable; it does provide a nice speedup, but it's not strictly a fix in the "correctness" sense.

cake_handle_diffserv() tries to linearize mac and network header parts of skb and to make it writable unconditionally. In some cases it leads to full skb reallocation, which reduces throughput and increases CPU load. Some measurements of IPv4 forward + NAPT on MIPS router with 580 MHz single-core CPU was conducted. It appears that on kernel 4.9 skb_try_make_writable() reallocates skb, if skb was allocated in ethernet driver via so-called 'build skb' method from page cache (it was discovered by strange increase of kmalloc-2048 slab at first). Obtain DSCP value via read-only skb_header_pointer() call, and leave linearization only for DSCP bleaching or ECN CE setting. And, as an additional optimisation, skip diffserv parsing entirely if it is not needed by the current configuration.

In the vsc8584_config_init and vsc8514_config_init, the base page is set to 'GPIO', configuration is done, and the page is never explicitly restored to the standard page. No bug was triggered as it turns out helpers called in those config_init functions do modify the base page, and set it back to standard. But that is dangerous and any modification to those functions would introduce bugs. This patch fixes this, to improve maintenance, by restoring the base page to 'standard' once 'GPIO' accesses are completed.

Jason A. Donenfeld says: ==================== napi_gro_receive caller return value cleanups In 6570bc79 ("net: core: use listified Rx for GRO_NORMAL in napi_gro_receive()"), the GRO_NORMAL case stopped calling netif_receive_skb_internal, checking its return value, and returning GRO_DROP in case it failed. Instead, it calls into netif_receive_skb_list_internal (after a bit of indirection), which doesn't return any error. Therefore, napi_gro_receive will never return GRO_DROP, making handling GRO_DROP dead code. I emailed the author of 6570bc79 on netdev [1] to see if this change was intentional, but the dlink.ru email address has been disconnected, and looking a bit further myself, it seems somewhat infeasible to start propagating return values backwards from the internal machinations of netif_receive_skb_list_internal. Taking a look at all the callers of napi_gro_receive, it appears that three are checking the return value for the purpose of comparing it to the now never-happening GRO_DROP, and one just casts it to (void), a likely historical leftover. Every other of the 120 callers does not bother checking the return value. And it seems like these remaining 116 callers are doing the right thing: after calling napi_gro_receive, the packet is now in the hands of the upper layers of the newtworking, and the device driver itself has no business now making decisions based on what the upper layers choose to do. Incrementing stats counters on GRO_DROP seems like a mistake, made by these three drivers, but not by the remaining 117. It would seem, therefore, that after rectifying these four callers of napi_gro_receive, that I should go ahead and just remove returning the value from napi_gro_receive all together. However, napi_gro_receive has a function event tracer, and being able to introspect into the networking stack to see how often napi_gro_receive is returning whatever interesting GRO status (aside from _DROP) remains an interesting data point worth keeping for debugging. So, this series simply gets rid of the return value checking for the four useless places where that check never evaluates to anything meaningful.

The napi_gro_receive function no longer returns GRO_DROP ever, making handling GRO_DROP dead code. This commit removes that dead code. Further, it's not even clear that device drivers have any business in taking action after passing off received packets; that's arguably out of their hands. In this case, too, the non-gro path didn't bother checking the return value. Plus, this had some clunky debugging functions that duplicated code from elsewhere and was generally pretty messy. So, this commit cleans that all up too. Fixes: 6570bc79 ("net: core: use listified Rx for GRO_NORMAL in napi_gro_receive()") Signed-off-by: Jason A.
