Most of the module parameters treated as boolean are currently exposed as type int or uint. Defining them with the proper type is useful documentation for both users and developers. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

efx_mcdi_poll() uses get_seconds() to read the current time and to implement a polling timeout. The use of this function was chosen partly because it could easily be replaced in a co-sim environment with a macro that read the simulated time. Unfortunately the real get_seconds() returns the system time (real time) which is subject to adjustment by e.g. ntpd. If the system time is adjusted forward during a polled MCDI operation, the effective timeout can be shorter than the intended 10 seconds, resulting in a spurious failure. It is also possible for a backward adjustment to delay detection of a areal failure. Use jiffies instead, and change MCDI_RPC_TIMEOUT to be denominated in jiffies. Also correct rounding of the timeout: check time > finish (or rather time_after(time, finish)) and not time >= finish. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

We sometimes hit a "failed to flush" timeout on some TX queues, but the flushes have completed and the flush completion events seem to go missing. In this case, we can check the TX_DESC_PTR_TBL register and drain the queues if the flushes had finished. [bwh: Minor fixes to coding style] Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

If the MC reboots then the stats it reports to us will have been reset. We need to reset ours to get efx_update_diff_stat() working properly. (Ideally we would maintain stats across the reboot, but as this should only happen immediately after a firmware upgrade it's not really worth the trouble.)

Currently we initialise the newly allocated buffer to all-1s, which is important for event queues but not for descriptor queues. And since we also do that in efx_nic_init_eventq(), it is completely pointless to do it here. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

efx_writed_table() uses a step of 16 bytes but efx_readd_table() uses a step of 4 bytes. Why are they different? Firstly, register access is asymmetric: - The EVQ_RPTR table and RX_INDIRECTION_TBL can (or must?) be written as dwords even though they have a step size of 16 bytes, unlike most other CSRs. - In general, a read of any width is valid for registers, so long as it does not cross register boundaries. There is also no latching behaviour in the BIU, contrary to rumour. We write to the EVQ_RPTR table with efx_writed_table() but never read it back as it's write-only. We write to the RX_INDIRECTION_TBL with efx_writed_table(), but only read it back for the register dump, where we use efx_reado_table() as for any other table with step size of 16. We read MC_TREG_SMEM with efx_readd_table() for the register dump, but normally read and write it with efx_readd() and efx_writed() using offsets calculated in bytes. Since these functions are trivial and have few callers, it's clearer to open-code them at the call sites. While we're at it, update the comments on the BIU behaviour again.

efx_mcdi_rpc_start() returns a negative value on error or zero on success. However one caller that can't properly handle failure then does WARN_ON(rc > 0). Change it to WARN_ON(rc < 0). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

Receiving pause frames can block TX queue flushes. Earlier changes work around this by reconfiguring the MAC during flushes for VFs, but during flushes for the PF we would only change the fc_disable counter. Unless the MAC is reconfigured for some other reason during the flush (which I would not expect to happen) this had no effect at all. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

This patch changes three methods to be static and removes their EXPORT_SYMBOLs in core/dev.c and their external declaration in netdevice.h. The methods, dev_gro_receive(), napi_frags_finish() and napi_skb_finish(), which are in the GRO rx path, are not used outside core/dev.c.

John W. Linville says: ==================== This pull request is intended for the 3.8 stream. It is a bit large -- I guess Thanksgiving got me off track! At least the code got to spend some time in linux-next... :-) This includes the usual batch of pulls for Bluetooth, NFC, and mac80211 as well as iwlwifi. Also here is an ath6kl pull, and a new driver in the rtlwifi family. The brcmfmac, brcmsmac, ath9k, and mwl8k get their usual levels of attention, and a handful of other updates tag along as well. For more detail on the pulls, please see below... On Bluetooth, Gustavo says: "Another set of patches for integration in wireless-next. There are two big set of changes in it: Andrei Emeltchenko and Mat Martineau added more patches towards a full Bluetooth High Speed support and Johan Hedberg improve the single mode support for Bluetooth dongles. Apart from that we have small fixes and improvements." ...and: "A few patches to 3.8. The majority of the work here is from Andrei on the High Speed support. Other than that Johan added support for setting LE advertising data. The rest are fixes and clean ups and small improvements like support for a new broadcom hardware." On mac80211, Johannes says: "This is for mac80211, for -next (3.8). Plenty of changes, as you can see below. Some fixes for previous changes like the export.h include, the beacon listener fix from Ben Greear, etc. Overall, no exciting new features, though hwsim does gain channel context support for people to try it out and look at." ...and...: "This one contains the mac80211-next material. Apart from a few small new features and cleanups I have two fixes for the channel context code. The RX_END timestamp support will probably be reworked again as Simon Barber noted the calculations weren't really valid, but the discussions there are still going on and it's better than what we had before." ...and: "Please pull (see below) to get the following changes: * a fix & a debug aid in IBSS from Antonio, * mesh cleanups from Marco, * a few bugfixes for some of my previous patches from Arend and myself, * and the big initial VHT support patchset" And on iwlwifi, Johannes says: "In addition to the previous four patches that I'm not resending, we have a number of cleanups, message reduction, firmware error handling improvements (yes yes... we need to fix them instead) and various other small things all over." ...and: "In his quest to try to understand the current iwlwifi problems (like stuck queues etc.) Emmanuel has first cleaned up the PCIe code, I'm including his changes in this pull request. Other than that I only have a small cleanup from Sachin Kamat to remove a duplicate include and a bugfix to turn off MFP if software crypto is enabled, but this isn't really interesting as MFP isn't supported right now anyway." On NFC, Samuel says: "With this one we have: - A few HCI improvements in preparation for an upcoming HCI chipset support. - A pn544 code cleanup after the old driver was removed. - An LLCP improvement for notifying user space when one peer stops ACKing I frames." On ath6kl, Kalle says: "Major changes this time are firmware recover support to gracefully handle if firmware crashes, support for changing regulatory domain and support for new ar6004 hardware revision 1.4. Otherwise there are just smaller fixes or cleanups from different people." Thats about it... :-) Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch reports the change made by Stephen Hemminger in ipip and gre[6] in commit eccc1bb8 (tunnel: drop packet if ECN present with not-ECT). Goal is to handle RFC6040, Section 4.2: Default Tunnel Egress Behaviour. o If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT, the decapsulator MUST NOT propagate any other ECN codepoint onwards. This is because the inner Not-ECT marking is set by transports that rely on dropped packets as an indication of congestion and would not understand or respond to any other ECN codepoint [RFC4774]. Specifically: * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is CE, the decapsulator MUST drop the packet. * If the inner ECN field is Not-ECT and the outer ECN field is Not-ECT, ECT(0), or ECT(1), the decapsulator MUST forward the outgoing packet with the ECN field cleared to Not-ECT. The patch takes benefits from common function added in net/inet_ecn.h. Like it was done for Xin4 tunnels, it adds logging to allow detecting broken systems that set ECN bits incorrectly when tunneling (or an intermediate router might be changing the header). Errors are also tracked via rx_frame_error. CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

On BE2 chip, an interrupt may be raised even when EQ is in un-armed state. As a result be_intx()::events_get() and be_poll:events_get() can race and notify an EQ wrongly. Fix this by counting events only in be_poll(). Commit 0b545a62 fixes the same issue in the MSI-x path. But, on Lancer, INTx can be de-asserted only by notifying num evts. This is not an issue as the above BE2 behavior doesn't exist/has never been seen on Lancer. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Michal Kubeček authored
If all slaves of a balance-rr bond with ARP monitor are enslaved with down link state, bond keeps down state even after slaves go up. This is caused by bond_enslave() setting curr_active_slave to first slave not taking into account its link state. As bond_loadbalance_arp_mon() uses curr_active_slave to identify whether slave's down->up transition should update bond's link state, bond stays down even if slaves are up (until first slave goes from up to down at least once). Before commit f31c7937 "bonding: start slaves with link down for ARP monitor", this was masked by slaves always starting in UP state with ARP monitor (and MII monitor not relying on curr_active_slave being NULL if there is no slave up).

The Huawei E173 is a QMI/wwan device which normally appear as 12d1:1436 in Linux. The descriptors displayed in that mode will be picked up by cdc_ether. But the modem has another mode with a different device ID and a slightly different set of descriptors.

This patch adds support for USB dynamic autosuspend to the smsc75xx driver. This saves virtually no power in the USB device but enables power savings in upstream hosts and the host CPU. Note currently Linux doesn't automatically enable this functionality by default for devices so to test this: echo auto > /sys/bus/usb/devices/2-1.2/power/control where 2-1.2 is the USB bus address of the LAN7500.
