Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Offload FDB learning configuration Ido says: This patchset addresses two long standing issues in the mlxsw driver concerning FDB learning. Patch 1 limits the number of FDB records processed by the driver in a single session. This is useful in situations in which many new records need to be processed, thereby causing the RTNL mutex to be held for long periods of time. Patches 2-6 offload the learning configuration (on / off) of bridge ports to the device instead of having the driver decide whether a record needs to be learned or not. The last patch is fallout and removes configuration no longer necessary after the first patches are applied. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Before commit 99724c18 ("mlxsw: spectrum: Introduce support for router interfaces") we used to assign vFIDs to the created vPorts. Since these vPorts were used for slow path traffic we had to disable learning for them, as it doesn't make sense to have it enabled. This is no longer the case and now vPorts are either used for router interfaces (for which learning is disabled by the firmware) or bridge ports (for which learning is explicitly enabled by the driver). Therefore, we can remove the learning configuration upon vPort creation. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

We now offload the learning configuration to the device and don't rely on the driver to decide whether to learn the FDB record, so remove the check. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Up until now we simply stored the learning configuration of a bridge port in the driver and decided whether to learn a new FDB record based on this value. However, this is sub-optimal in cases where learning is disabled on the bridge port, as the device repeatedly generates learning notifications for the same record. Instead, offload the learning configuration to the device, thereby preventing it from generating notifications when learning is disabled.

We are going to prevent the device from generating learning notifications for a port that was configured with learning disabled. Since learning configuration is done per {Port, VID} we need to apply the port's learning configuration for any VID that is added to the bridge port's VLAN filter list. When a VID is added to the VLAN filter list of a VLAN-aware bridge port, configure the {Port, VID} learning status according to the port's configuration. When the VID is removed, disable learning for the {Port, VID}. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Commit 05978481 ("mlxsw: spectrum: Create PVID vPort before registering netdevice") removed __mlxsw_sp_port_vlans_del() from the init sequence of the driver, which forced it to be non-symmetric with regards to __mlxsw_sp_port_vlans_add(). Make both functions symmetric as the constraint no longer exists. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel <idosch@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Up until now a learning session ended whenever the number of queried records was zero. This turned out to be problematic in situations where a large number of MACs (48K) had to be processed by the switch driver, as RTNL mutex is held during the learning session. Instead, limit the number of FDB records that can be processed in a session to 64. This means that every time the device is queried for learning notifications (currently, every 100ms), up to 64 records will be processed by the switch driver.

Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20160823-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Miscellaneous improvements Here are some improvements that are part of the AF_RXRPC rewrite. They need to be applied on top of the just posted cleanups. (1) Set the connection expiry on the connection becoming idle when its last currently active call completes rather than each time put is called. This means that the connection isn't held open by retransmissions, pings and duplicate packets. Future patches will limit the number of live connections that the kernel will support, so making sure that old connections don't overstay their welcome is necessary. (2) Calculate packet serial skew in the UDP data_ready callback rather than in the call processor on a work queue. Deferring it like this causes the skew to be elevated by further packets coming in before we get to make the calculation. (3) Move retransmission of the terminal ACK or ABORT packet for a connection to the connection processor, using the terminal state cached in the rxrpc_connection struct. This means that once last_call is set in a channel to the current call's ID, no more packets will be routed to that rxrpc_call struct. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Merge tag 'rxrpc-rewrite-20160823-1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/dhowells/linux-fs David Howells says: ==================== rxrpc: Cleanups Here are some cleanups for the AF_RXRPC rewrite: (1) Remove some unused bits. (2) Call releasing on socket closure is now done in the order in which calls progress through the phases so that we don't miss a call actively moving list. (3) The rxrpc_call struct's channel number field is redundant and replaced with accesses to the masked off cid field instead. (4) Use a tracepoint for socket buffer accounting rather than printks. Unfortunately, since this would require currently non-existend arch-specific help to divine the current instruction location, the accounting functions are moved out of line so that __builtin_return_address() can be used. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When we disable SRIOV, we used to unregister the netdev but wasn't freed. But next time when the same netdev is registered, since the state was in 'NETREG_UNREGISTERED', we used to hit BUG_ON in register_netdevice, where it expects the state to be 'NETREG_UNINITIALIZED'. Alloc netdev and register them while configuring SRIOV, and free them when SRIOV is disabled. Also added a new function to setup ethernet properties instead of using ether_setup. Set carrier off by default, since we don't have to do any transmit on the interface.
