This patch adds a public API for a network driver to work on top of QED. The interface itself is very minimal - it's mostly infrastructure, as the only content it has after this patch is a query for HW-based information required for the creation of a network interface [I.e., no actual protocol-specific configurations are supported].

The Qlogic Everest Driver is the backend module for the QL4xxx ethernet products by Qlogic. This module serves two main purposes: 1. It's responsible to contain all the common code that will be shared between the various drivers that would be used with said line of products. Flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization fall under this category. 2. It would abstract the protocol-specific HW & FW components, allowing the protocol drivers to have a clean APIs which is detached in its slowpath configuration from the actual HSI. This adds a very basic module without any protocol-specific bits. I.e., this adds a basic implementation that almost entirely falls under the first category. Signed-off-by:

Fix safety checks for bpf_perf_event_read(): - only non-inherited events can be added to perf_event_array map (do this check statically at map insertion time) - dynamically check that event is local and !pmu->count Otherwise buggy bpf program can cause kernel splat. Also fix error path after perf_event_attrs() and remove redundant 'extern'. Fixes: 35578d79 ("bpf: Implement function bpf_perf_event_read() that get the selected hardware PMU conuter") Signed-off-by:

While the current driver mostly supports BCM7445 which has a hardcoded location for its MoCA port on port 7 and port 0 for its internal PHY, this is not necessarily true for all other chips out there such as BCM3390 for instance. Walk the list of ports from Device Tree, get their port number ("reg" property), and then parse the "phy-mode" property and initialize two internal variables: moca_port and a bitmask of internal PHYs. Since we use interrupts for the MoCA port, we introduce two helper functions to enable/disable interrupts and do this at the appropriate bank (INTRL2_0 or INTRL2_1).

Add support for the FDB add, delete, and dump operations. The add and delete operations are implemented using directed ARL operations using the specified MAC address and consist in a read operation, write and readback operation. The dump operation consists in using the ARL search and software filtering entries which are not for the desired port. Signed-off-by:

The arcnet device has no interrupt to detect if the link has changed from disconnected to connected. This patch adds an timer to toggle the link detection. The timer will get retriggered as long as the reconnection interrupts accure. If the recon interrupts hold off for >1s we define the connection stable again.

bnxt_gro_skb() has unused variables when CONFIG_INET is not set. We really cannot support hardware GRO if CONFIG_INET is not set, so compile out bnxt_gro_skb() completely and define BNXT_FLAG_GRO to be 0 if CONFIG_INET is not set. This will effectively always disable hardware GRO if CONFIG_INET is not set. Signed-off-by:

This short series adds ethtool statistics reporting to mvneta. Having discussed with Andrew on IRC, we decided I'd pick up his patch into my series.

Jon Maloy says: ==================== tipc: improve broadcast implementation The TIPC broadcast link implementation is currently complex and hard to follow. It also incurs some amount of code and structure duplication, something that can be reduced significantly with a little effort. This commit series introduces a number of improvements which address both the locking structure, the code/structure duplication issue, and the overall readbility of the code. The series consists of three main parts: 1-7: Adaptation to the new link structure, and preparation for the next step. In particular, we want the broadcast transmission link to have a life cycle that is longer than any of its potential (unicast and broadcast receive links) users. This eliminates the need to always test for the presence of this link before accessing it. 8-10: This is what is really new in this series. Commit #9 is by far the largest and most important one, because it moves most of the broadcast functionality into link.c, partially reusing the fields and functionality of the unicast link. The removal of the "node_map" infrastructure in commit #10 is also an important achievement. 11-16: Some improvements leveraging the changes made in the previous commits. The series needs commit 53387c4e ("tipc: extend broadcast link window size") and commit e5356794 ("tipc: conditionally expand buffer headroom over udp tunnel") which are both present in 'net' but not yet in 'net-next', to apply cleanly. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Correct synchronization of the broadcast link at first contact between two nodes is dependent on the assumption that the binding table "bulk" update passes via the same link as the initial broadcast syncronization message, i.e., via the first link that is established. This is not guaranteed in the current implementation. If two link come up very close to each other in time, the "bulk" may quite well pass via the second link, and hence void the guarantee of a correct initial synchronization before the broadcast link is opened. This commit makes two small changes to strengthen this guarantee. 1) We let the second established link occupy slot 1 of the "active_links" array, while the first link will retain slot 0. (This is in reality a cosmetic change, we could just as well keep the current, opposite order) 2) We let the name distributor always use link selector/slot 0 when it sends it binding table updates. The extra traffic bias on the first link caused by this change should be negligible, since binding table updates constitutes a very small fraction of the total traffic. Signed-off-by: -

With the recent commit series, we have established a one-way dependency between the link aggregation (struct tipc_node) instances and their pertaining tipc_link instances. This has enabled quite significant code and structure simplifications. In this commit, we eliminate the field 'owner', which points to an instance of struct tipc_node, from struct tipc_link, and replace it with a pointer to struct net, which is the only external reference now needed by a link instance.

Since all packet transmitters (link, bcast, discovery) are now sending consumable buffer clones to the bearer layer, we can remove the redundant buffer cloning that is perfomed in the lower level functions tipc_l2_send_msg() and tipc_udp_send_msg(). Signed-off-by:

The neighbor discovery function currently uses the function tipc_bearer_send() for transmitting packets, assuming that the sent buffers are not consumed by the called function. We want to change this, in order to avoid unnecessary buffer cloning elswhere in the code. This commit introduces a new function tipc_bearer_skb() which consumes the sent buffers, and let the discoverer functions use this new call instead. The discoverer does now itself perform the cloning when that is necessary. Signed-off-by:

Until now, we have only been supporting a fix MTU size of 1500 bytes for all broadcast media, irrespective of their actual capability. We now make the broadcast MTU adaptable to the carrying media, i.e., we use the smallest MTU supported by any of the interfaces attached to TIPC. Signed-off-by:

Until now, we have been keeping track of the exact set of broadcast destinations though the help structure tipc_node_map. This leads us to have to maintain a whole infrastructure for supporting this, including a pseudo-bearer and a number of functions to manipulate both the bearers and the node map correctly. Apart from the complexity, this approach is also limiting, as struct tipc_node_map only can support cluster local broadcast if we want to avoid it becoming excessively large. We want to eliminate this limitation, in order to enable introduction of scoped multicast in the future. A closer analysis reveals that it is unnecessary maintaining this "full set" overview; it is sufficient to keep a counter per bearer, indicating how many nodes can be reached via this bearer at the moment. The protocol is now robust enough to handle transitional discrepancies between the nominal number of reachable destinations, as expected by the broadcast protocol itself, and the number which is actually reachable at the moment. The initial broadcast synchronization, in conjunction with the retransmission mechanism, ensures that all packets will eventually be acknowledged by the correct set of destinations. This commit introduces these changes. Signed-off-by:

The code path for receiving broadcast packets is currently distinct from the unicast path. This leads to unnecessary code and data duplication, something that can be avoided with some effort. We now introduce separate per-peer tipc_link instances for handling broadcast packet reception. Each receive link keeps a pointer to the common, single, broadcast link instance, and can hence handle release and retransmission of send buffers as if they belonged to the own instance. Furthermore, we let each unicast link instance keep a reference to both the pertaining broadcast receive link, and to the common send link. This makes it possible for the unicast links to easily access data for broadcast link synchronization, as well as for carrying acknowledges for received broadcast packets. Signed-off-by:

Until now, we have tried to support both the newer, dedicated broadcast synchronization mechanism along with the older, less safe, RESET_MSG/ ACTIVATE_MSG based one. The latter method has turned out to be a hazard in a highly dynamic cluster, so we find it safer to disable it completely when we find that the former mechanism is supported by the peer node. For this purpose, we now introduce a new capabability bit, TIPC_BCAST_SYNCH, to inform any peer nodes that dedicated broadcast syncronization is supported by the present node. The new bit is conveyed between peers in the 'capabilities' field of neighbor discovery messages. Signed-off-by:

Realizing that unicast is just a special case of broadcast, we also see that we can go in the other direction, i.e., that modest changes to the current unicast link can make it generic enough to support broadcast. The following changes are introduced here: - A new counter ("ackers") in struct tipc_link, to indicate how many peers need to ack a packet before it can be released. - A corresponding counter in the skb user area, to keep track of how many peers a are left to ack before a buffer can be released. - A new counter ("acked"), to keep persistent track of how far a peer has acked at the moment, i.e., where in the transmission queue to start updating buffers when the next ack arrives. This is to avoid double acknowledgements from a peer, with inadvertent relase of packets as a result. - A more generic tipc_link_retrans() function, where retransmit starts from a given sequence number, instead of the first packet in the transmision queue. This is to minimize the number of retransmitted packets on the broadcast media. When the new functionality is taken into use in the next commits, we expect it to have minimal effect on unicast mode performance. Signed-off-by: -

The broadcast link instance (struct tipc_link) used for sending is currently aggregated into struct tipc_bclink. This means that we cannot use the regular tipc_link_create() function for initiating the link, but do instead have to initiate numerous fields directly from the bcast_init() function. We want to reduce dependencies between the broadcast functionality and the inner workings of tipc_link. In this commit, we introduce a new function tipc_bclink_create() to link.c, and allocate the instance of the link separately using this function. Signed-off-by:

In reality, the link implementation is already independent from struct tipc_bearer, in that it doesn't store any reference to it. However, we still pass on a pointer to a bearer instance in the function tipc_link_create(), just to have it extract some initialization information from it. I later commits, we need to create instances of tipc_link without having any associated struct tipc_bearer. To facilitate this, we want to extract the initialization data already in the creator function in node.c, before calling tipc_link_create(), and pass this info on as individual parameters in the call. This commit introduces this change. Signed-off-by:

The broadcast transmission link is currently instantiated when the network subsystem is started, i.e., on order from user space via netlink. This forces the broadcast transmission code to do unnecessary tests for the existence of the transmission link, as well in single mode node as in network mode. In this commit, we do instead create the link during initialization of the name space, and remove it when it is stopped. The fact that the transmission link now has a guaranteed longer life cycle than any of its potential clients paves the way for further code simplifcations and optimizations. Signed-off-by:

The broadcast lock will need to be acquired outside bcast.c in a later commit. For this reason, we move the lock to struct tipc_net. Consistent with the changes in the previous commit, we also introducee two new functions tipc_bcast_lock() and tipc_bcast_unlock(). The code that is currently using tipc_bclink_lock()/unlock() will be phased out during the coming commits in this series. Signed-off-by:

Currently, a number of structure and function definitions related to the broadcast functionality are unnecessarily exposed in the file bcast.h. This obscures the fact that the external interface towards the broadcast link in fact is very narrow, and causes unnecessary recompilations of other files when anything changes in those definitions. In this commit, we move as many of those definitions as is currently possible to the file bcast.c. We also rename the structure 'tipc_bclink' to 'tipc_bc_base', both since the name does not correctly describe the contents of this struct, and will do so even less in the future, and because we want to use the term 'link' more appropriately in the functionality introduced later in this series. Finally, we rename a couple of functions, such as tipc_bclink_xmit() and others that will be kept in the future, to include the term 'bcast' instead. There are no functional changes in this commit.
