      enic: fix return values in enic_set_coalesce · a16a3361
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan authored
      enic_set_coalesce() has two problems.
      
      * It should return -EINVAL and not -EOPNOTSUPP for invalid coalesce values.
      
      * In case of MSIX, enic_set_coalesce return error after applying requested
        coalescing setting partially. We should either apply all the setting requeste
        and return success or apply non and return error.
      
      * This patch also simplifies the algo.
      
      This was introduced by
      '7c2ce6e6 enic: Add support for adaptive interrupt coalescing'
      
      These changes were suggested by Ben Hutchings here
      http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg283972.html
      
      Also change enic driver version.

      ====================
      at86rf230: rework driver implementation
      
      this patch series includes a rework of the at86rf230 driver.
      
      There are several changes:
      
       - Add regmap support.
       - Merge at86rf212 operations with generic at86rf2xx operations, all chips
         supports these operations.
       - Drop of irqworker. This is a workqueue which will scheduled by an irq to
         handle synchronous spi handling. Instead using asynchronous spi handling,
         then no scheduler is involved at irq handling.
       - Also detected some bugs by receiving frame like CRC can be correct and a
         802.15.4 frame length could be above 127 bytes. This would crash the whole
         kernel (but should be handled by the mac layer). Another bug is the handling
         with RX_SAFE_MODE which protect the frame buffer after a readout. This is
         currently not working because we read out the buffer twice and the first one
         to get the frame size. Solution is to readout always the whole frame buffer.
       - Added some timing relevants things from the datasheet for state changes And
         IEEE 802.15.4 standard like interframe spacing. Interframe spacing is needed
         to insert some receiving space time between frame transmitting. This should be
         also handled by MAC layer, but it's currently a workaround to add this inside
         the driver layer.
       - Add some callback setting for chip specific handling, instead of runtime decisions
         if (is_chip_type()). Callbacks are set only once at probe time.
       - We don't using a force state change anymore. A force state change will do a
         abort of receiving frames while we want to transmit a new frame. This should
         decrease the drop rate of packets.
       - And many others changes and bug fixes...
      
      changes since v3:
       - fix irq polarity in patch ("at86rf230: rework irq_pol setting").
      
      changes since v2:
       - add check if necessary functions are implemented when hw flags are set in patch
         ("mac802154: at86rf230: add hw flags and merge ops"). I choosed the second variant.
       - remove unnecessary includes for workqueue and mutex in patch
         ("at86rf230: rework transmit and receive").
       - remove unnecessary cast in patch ("at86rf230: rework transmit and receive").
       - acivate regmap cache with REGCACHE_RBTREE in patch
         ("at86rf230: add regmap support").

      at86rf230: rework transmit and receive handling · 1d15d6b5
      Alexander Aring authored
      This patch is a complete reimplementation of transmit and receive
      handling for the at86rf230 driver.
      
      It solves also six bugs:
      
      First:
      
      The RX_SAFE_MODE is enabled and the transceiver doesn't leave the
      receive state while the framebuffer isn't read by a CMD_FB command.
      This is useful to read out the frame and don't get into another receive
      or transmit state, otherwise the frame would be overwritten.
      The current driver do twice CMD_FB calls, the first one leaves this
      protection.
      
      Second:
      
      Sometimes the CRC calculation is correct and the length field is greater
      127. The current mac802154 layer and filter of a at86rf2xx doesn't check
      on this and the kernel crashes. In this case the frame is corrupted, we
      send the whole receive buffer to the next layer which can be useful for
      sniffing.
      
      Thrid:
      There is a undocumented race condition. When we are go into the
      RX_AACK_ON state the transceiver could be changed into RX_AACK_BUSY
      state. This is a normal behaviour. In this case the transceiver received
      a SHR while assert wasn't finished.
      
      Fourth:
      It also handle some more "correct" state changes. In aret mode the
      transceiver need to go to TX_ON before the transceiver go into
      RX_AACK_ON.
      
      Fifth:
      The programming model [0] describes also a error handling in ARET mode
      if the trac status is different than zero. This is patch adds support
      for handling this.
      
      Sixth:
      In receive handling the transceiver should also get the trac status
      according [0]. The driver could use the trac status as error statistic
      handling, but the driver doesn't use this currently. There is maybe some
      timing behaviour or the read of this register change some transceiver
      states.
      
      In addition the irqworker is removed. Instead we do async spi calls and
      no scheduling is involved anymore. The transmit function is also
      asynchron but with a wait_for_completion handling. The mac802154 layer
      doesn't support asynchron transmit handling right now.
      
      The state change behaviour is now changes, before it was:
      
      1. assert while(!STATE_TRANSITION_IN_PROGRESS)
      2. state change
      3. assert while(!STATE_TRANSITION_IN_PROGRESS)
      4. assert once(wanted state != current state)
      
      Sometimes a unexcepted state change occurs when 4. assert was violated.
      The new state change behaviour is:
      
      1. assert while(!STATE_TRANSITION_IN_PROGRESS)
      2. state change
      3. wait state change timing according datasheet
      4. assert once(wanted state != current state)
      
      This behaviour is described in the at86rf231 software programming model [0].
      The state change documentation in this programming guide should also valid for
      at86rf212 and at86rf233 chips.
      
      The transceiver don't do a FORCE_TX_ON while we want to transmit a PDU.
      The new behaviour is a TX_ON and wait a receiving time (tFrame + tPAck).
      If we are still in RX_AACK_BUSY then we transmit a FORCE_TX_ON as timeout
      handling. The different is that FORCE_TX_ON aborts receiving and TX_ON
      waits if RX_AACK_BUSY is finished. This should decrease the drop rate of
      packets.

      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-07-02
      
      This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
      
      Anjali fixes a possible race where we were trying to free the dummy packet
      buffer in the function that created it, so cleanup the dummy packet buffer
      in i40e_clean_tx_ring() instead.  Also fixes an issue where the filter
      program routine was not checking if there were descriptors available for
      programming a filter.
      
      Mitch fixes unnecessary delays when sending the admin queue commands by
      moving a declaration up one level so we do not dereference it out of scope.
      Fixes an issue with the VF where if the admin queue interrupts get lost for
      some reason, the VF communication will stall as the VFs have no way of
      reaching the PF.  To alleviate this condition, go ahead and check the ARQ
      every time we run the service task.  Updates i40evf to allow the watchdog
      to fire vector 0 via software, which makes the driver tolerant of dropped
      interrupts on that vector.
      
      Paul fixes a shifted '1' to be unsigned to avoid shifting a signed integer.
      
      Jesse disables TPH by default since it is currently not enabled in the
      current hardware.  Also finishes the i40e implementation of get_settings
      for ethtool.
      
      Catherine adds a new variable (hw.phy.link_info.an_enabled) to track whether
      auto-negotiation is enabled, along with the functionality to update the
      variable.  Adds the functionality to set the requested flow control mode.
      Adds i40e implementation of setpauseparam and set_settings to ethtool.

      net: fec: make rx skb handling more robust · 730ee360
      Russell King authored
      Allocate, and then map the receive skb before writing any data to the
      ring descriptor or storing the skb.  When freeing the receive ring
      entries, unmap and free the skb, and then clear the stored skb pointer.
      
      This means we have ring data and skb pointer in one of two states:
      either both fully setup, or nothing setup.
      
      This simplifies the cleanup, as we can use just the skb pointer to
      indicate whether the descriptor is setup, and thus avoids potentially
      calling dma_unmap_single() on a DMA error value.

      napi_disable() waits until the NAPI processing has completed, and then
      prevents any further polls.  At this point, the driver then clears
      fep->opened.  The NAPI poll function uses this to stop processing in
      the receive path.  Hence, it will never see this variable cleared,
      because the NAPI poll has to complete before it will be cleared.
      
      Therefore, this variable serves no purpose, so let's remove it.

      net: fec: stop the phy before shutting down the MAC · d76cfae9
      Russell King authored
      When the network interface goes down, stop the phy to prevent further
      link up status changes before taking the MAC or netif sections down.
      This prevents further reception of link up events which could
      potentially call fec_restart().
      
      Since phy_stop() takes the mutex which adjust_link() runs under, we
      also ensure that adjust_link() will not already be processing a link
      up event.
      
      We also need to do this when suspending as well - we don't want a
      mis-timed phy state change to restart the MAC after we have stopped
      it for suspend, and thus need to restart the phy when resuming.

      We use netif_stop_queue() in several places where we want to ensure that

      netif_tx_disable() gives this guarantee, since it takes the transmit
      queue lock while marking the queue stopped.  This will wait for the

      net: fec: fix interrupt handling races · 7a16807c
      Russell King authored
      While running: while :; do iperf -c <HOST> -P 4; done, transmit timeouts
      are regularly reported.  With the tx ring dumping in place, we can see
      that all entries are in use, and the hardware has finished transmitting
      these packets.  However, the driver has not reclaimed these ring
      entries.
      
      This can occur if the interrupt handler is invoked at the wrong moment -
      eg:
      
      	CPU0				CPU1
      	fec_enet_tx()
      					interrupt, IEVENT = FEC_ENET_TXF
      					FEC_ENET_TXF cleared
      					napi_schedule_prep()
      	napi_complete()
      
      The result is that we clear the transmit interrupt, but we don't trigger
      any cleaning of the transmit ring.  Instead, use a different strategy:
      
      - When receiving a transmit or receive interrupt, disable both tx and rx
        interrupts, but do not acknowledge them.  Schedule a napi poll.  Don't
        loop.
      
      - When we are polled, read IEVENT, acknowledging the pending transmit
        and receive interrupts, before then going on to process the
        appropriate rings.
      
      This allows us to avoid the race, and has a number of other advantages:
      - we cut down on the number of transmit interrupts we have to process.
      - we only look at the rings which have pending events.
      - we gain additional throughput: the iperf total bandwidth increases
        from about 180Mbps to 240Mbps:
      
      [  3]  0.0-10.0 sec  68.1 MBytes  57.0 Mbits/sec

      net: fec: fix ethtool set_pauseparam duplex bug · 9671a42e
      Russell King authored
      Setting the pause parameters causes a running network interface to be
      restarted.  However, the restart forces the FEC into half-duplex mode,
      whether or not the remote end is in half-duplex mode.  Misconfigured
      duplex mode is a known source of problems on a link.
      
      Fix this by always preserving the duplex mode on configuration changes.

      ====================
      net: Improvements and applications of packet flow hash in transmit path
      
      This patch series includes some patches which improve and make use
      of skb->hash in the transmit path.
      
      What is included:
      
      - Infrastructure to save a precomputed hash in the sock structure.
        For connected TCP and UDP sockets we only need to compute the
        flow hash once and not once for every packet.
      - Call skb_get_hash in get_xps_queue and __skb_tx_hash. This eliminates
        the awkward access to skb->sk->sk_hash in the lower transmit path.
      - Move UDP source port generation into a common function in udp.h This
        implementation is mostly based on vxlan_src_port.
      - Use non-zero IPv6 flow labels in flow_dissector as port information
        for flow hash calculation.
      - Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit (per RFC 6438).
      - Don't repeatedly try to compute an L4 hash in skb_get_hash if we've
        already tried to find one in software stack calculation.

      ipv6: Implement automatic flow label generation on transmit · cb1ce2ef
      Tom Herbert authored
      Automatically generate flow labels for IPv6 packets on transmit.
      The flow label is computed based on skb_get_hash. The flow label will
      only automatically be set when it is zero otherwise (i.e. flow label
      manager hasn't set one). This supports the transmit side functionality
      of RFC 6438.
      
      Added an IPv6 sysctl auto_flowlabels to enable/disable this behavior
      system wide, and added IPV6_AUTOFLOWLABEL socket option to enable this
      functionality per socket.
      
      By default, auto flowlabels are disabled to avoid possible conflicts
      with flow label manager, however if this feature proves useful we
      may want to enable it by default.
      
      It should also be noted that FreeBSD has already implemented automatic
      flow labels (including the sysctl and socket option). In FreeBSD,
      automatic flow labels default to enabled.
      
      Performance impact:
      
      Running super_netperf with 200 flows for TCP_RR and UDP_RR for
      IPv6. Note that in UDP case, __skb_get_hash will be called for
      every packet with explains slight regression. In the TCP case
      the hash is saved in the socket so there is no regression.
      
      Automatic flow labels disabled:
      
        TCP_RR:
          86.53% CPU utilization

      Tom Herbert authored
      This patch adds udp_flow_src_port function which is intended to be
      a common function that UDP tunnel implementations call to set the source
      port. The source port is chosen so that a hash over the outer headers
      (IP addresses and UDP ports) acts as suitable hash for the flow of the
      encapsulated packet. In this manner, UDP encapsulation works with RSS
      and ECMP based wrt the inner flow.

      net: Save TX flow hash in sock and set in skbuf on xmit · b73c3d0e
      Tom Herbert authored
      For a connected socket we can precompute the flow hash for setting
      in skb->hash on output. This is a performance advantage over
      calculating the skb->hash for every packet on the connection. The
      computation is done using the common hash algorithm to be consistent
      with computations done for packets of the connection in other states
      where thers is no socket (e.g. time-wait, syn-recv, syn-cookies).
      
      This patch adds sk_txhash to the sock structure. inet_set_txhash and
      ip6_set_txhash functions are added which are called from points in
      TCP and UDP where socket moves to established state.
      
      skb_set_hash_from_sk is a function which sets skb->hash from the
      sock txhash value. This is called in UDP and TCP transmit path when
      transmitting within the context of a socket.
      
      Tested: ran super_netperf with 200 TCP_RR streams over a vxlan
      interface (in this case skb_get_hash called on every TX packet to
      create a UDP source port).
      
      Before fix:
      
        95.02% CPU utilization
        154/256/505 90/95/99% latencies
