A FW cmd timeout (with a sufficiently large timeout value in the order of tens of seconds) indicates an unresponsive FW. In this state issuing further cmds and waiting for a completion will only stall the process. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

[PATCH net-next] ipv4: IP_PKTINFO doesnt need dst reference When a socket uses IP_PKTINFO notifications, we currently force a dst reference for each received skb. Reader has to access dst to get needed information (rt_iif & rt_spec_dst) and must release dst reference. We also forced a dst reference if skb was put in socket backlog, even without IP_PKTINFO handling. This happens under stress/load. We can instead store the needed information in skb->cb[], so that only softirq handler really access dst, improving cache hit ratios. This removes two atomic operations per packet, and false sharing as well. On a benchmark using a mono threaded receiver (doing only recvmsg() calls), I can reach 720.000 pps instead of 570.000 pps. IP_PKTINFO is typically used by DNS servers, and any multihomed aware UDP application. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Reading /proc/net/snmp on a machine with a lot of cpus is very expensive (can be ~88000 us). This is because ICMPMSG MIB uses 4096 bytes per cpu, and folding values for all possible cpus can read 16 Mbytes of memory. ICMP messages are not considered as fast path on a typical server, and eventually few cpus handle them anyway. We can afford an atomic operation instead of using percpu data. This saves 4096 bytes per cpu and per network namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This makes native ipv6 bind follow the precedent set by: - native ipv4 bind behaviour - dual stack ipv4-mapped ipv6 bind behaviour.

To prevent the SBus driver for Sun Happy Meal cards from being loaded for PCI cards utilizing the same chipset, a filter was added to the probe function in commit 0b492fce. The filter was implemented by checking the name of the parent node in the OF tree. This patch extends this filter, so that the driver will load on SBus systems that are based upon SBI SBus Bridges.

The driver used NET_IP_ALIGN to remove some additional padding inside of the rx_fixup function. On many architectures NET_IP_ALIGN defaults to 2 which removed the correct amount of bytes. On MCORE2-machines commit ea812ca1 introduces a change which sets NET_IP_ALIGN to 0 by default. Which triggered the bug on these machines. This fix introduces a new RXW_PADDING define and uses this instead of NET_IP_ALIGN. The name was taken from the original SMSC7500 driver which is provided by SMSC.

The link down would occur when reseting PHY. And it would take about 2 ~ 5 seconds from link down to link up. If the delay of pm_schedule_suspend is not long enough, the device would enter runtime_suspend before link up. After link up, the device would wake up and reset PHY again. Then, you would find the driver keep in a loop of runtime_suspend and rumtime_resume.

Mountpoint crossing is similar to following procfs symlinks - we do not get ->d_revalidate() called for dentry we have arrived at, with unpleasant consequences for NFS4. Simple way to reproduce the problem in mainline: cat >/tmp/a.c <<'EOF' #include <unistd.h> #include <fcntl.h> #include <stdio.h> main() { struct flock fl = {.l_type = F_RDLCK, .l_whence = SEEK_SET, .l_len = 1}; if (fcntl(0, F_SETLK, &fl)) perror("setlk"); } EOF cc /tmp/a.c -o /tmp/test then on nfs4: mount --bind file1 file2 /tmp/test < file1 # ok /tmp/test < file2 # spews "setlk: No locks available"... What happens is the missing call of ->d_revalidate() after mountpoint crossing and that's where NFS4 would issue OPEN request to server. The fix is simple - treat mountpoint crossing the same way we deal with following procfs-style symlinks. I.e. set LOOKUP_JUMPED...

Rx byte count was off; instead use the hardware's count. Tx packet count was counting pre-TSO packets; instead count on-the-wire packets. Report hardware dropped frame count as rx_fifo_errors. - The count of transmitted packets reported by the forcedeth driver reports pre-TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) packet counts and not the count of the number of packets sent on the wire. This change fixes the forcedeth driver to report the correct count. Fixed the code by copying the count stored in the NIC H/W to the value reported by the driver. - Count rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors: We see a lot of rx_drop_frame errors if we disable the rx bottom-halves for too long. Normally, rx_fifo_errors would be counted in this case. The rx_drop_frame error count is private to forcedeth and is not reported by ifconfig or sysfs. The rx_fifo_errors count is currently unused in the forcedeth driver. It is reported by ifconfig as overruns. This change reports rx_drop_frame errors as rx_fifo_errors.
