o Linux stack estimates MSS from skb->len or skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_size. In case of LRO skb->len is aggregate of len of number of packets hence MSS obtained using skb->len would be incorrect. Incorrect estimation of recv MSS would lead to delayed acks in some traffic patterns (which sends two or three packets and wait for ack and only then send remaining packets). This leads to drop in performance. Hence we need to set gso_size to MSS obtained from firmware. o This is fixed recently in firmware hence the MSS is obtained based on capability. If fw is capable of sending the MSS then only driver sets the gso_size.

We added another error condition here, but if we were to hit it then we need to unregister_netdev() before doing the free_netdev(). Otherwise we would hit the BUG_ON() in free_netdev(): BUG_ON(dev->reg_state != NETREG_UNREGISTERED); Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Tested-by: Raffaele Recalcati <raffaele.recalcati@bticino.it> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch adds the support for D_CAN controller driver to the existing C_CAN driver. Bosch D_CAN controller is a full-CAN implementation which is compliant to CAN protocol version 2.0 part A and B. Bosch D_CAN user manual can be obtained from: http://www.semiconductors.bosch.de/media/en/pdf/ ipmodules_1/can/d_can_users_manual_111.pdf A new array is added for accessing the d_can registers, according to d_can controller register space. Current D_CAN implementation has following limitations, this is done to avoid large changes to the C_CAN driver. 1. Message objects are limited to 32, 16 for RX and 16 for TX. C_CAN IP supports upto 32 message objects but in case of D_CAN we can configure upto 128 message objects. 2. Using two 16bit reads/writes for accessing the 32bit D_CAN registers. 3. These patches have been tested on little endian machine, there might be some hidden endian-related issues due to the nature of the accesses (32-bit registers accessed as 2 16-bit registers). However, I do not have a big-endian D_CAN implementation to confirm. Signed-off-by: AnilKumar Ch <anilkumar@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>

c_can uses overlay structure for accessing c_can module registers. With this kind of implementation it is difficult to add one more ip which is similar to c_can in functionality but different register offsets. This patch changes the overlay structure implementation to an array with register offset as index. This way we can overcome the above limitation.

John Linville says: ==================== Amitkumar Karwar gives us a cfg80211 fix that changes some state tracking in order to avoid a WARNING. Arik Nemtsov provide a mac80211 fix for an RCU-related race. Avinash Patil shares a pair of mwifiex fixes, one which invalidates some stale configuration data before a channel change and another to restrict hidden SSID support to zero-length SSIDs only. Chun-Yeow Yeoh brings a mac80211 fix for a mesh problem triggered when combining multiple mesh networks into one. Felix Fietkau provides a mac80211 lockdep fix. Joe Perches fixes a couple of thinkos related to bitwise operations. Johannes Berg comes through with a flurry of fixes. The iwlwifi ones address a problem Linus recently reported, and some of the fallout discovered while fixing it. The mac80211 fix properly cleans-up remain-on-channel work on an interface that is stopped. The others are clean-ups for regressions caused by stricter checking of possible virtual interfaces supported by wireless drivers. Meenakshi Venkataraman provides a mac80211 fix for an off-by-one error. Seth Forshee provides a fix to make the wireless adapters used in some Mac boxes work after being in S3 power saving state. Stanislaw Gruszka offers a copule of fixes, a fix for a mac80211 scanning regression and an rt2x00 fix to avoid some lockdep spew. Last but not least, Vinicius Costa Gomes provides a bluetooth fix for a typo that "was preventing important features of Bluetooth from working". ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

commit 5faa5df1 (inetpeer: Invalidate the inetpeer tree along with the routing cache) added a race : Before freeing an inetpeer, we must respect a RCU grace period, and make sure no user will attempt to increase refcnt. inetpeer_invalidate_tree() waits for a RCU grace period before inserting inetpeer tree into gc_list and waking the worker. At that time, no concurrent lookup can find a inetpeer in this tree.

This patches fixes the driver when built as dynamic module. In fact, the platform part cannot be built and the probe fails (thanks to Bob Liu that reported this bug). v2: as D. Miller suggested, it is not necessary to make the pci and the platform code mutually exclusive. Having both could also help, at built time ,to verify that all the code is validated and compiles fine. v3: removed wrong Reviewed-by from the patch Reported-by: Bob Liu <lliubbo@gmail.com> cc: Rayagond Kokatanur <rayagond@vayavyalabs.com> Signed-off-by: Giuseppe Cavallaro <peppe.cavallaro@st.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The CUST_SCRATCHPAD_CSR register is used for marking if FW cleanup is needed. This is used in a crash kernel scenario. Do no use this register as it is not available for some functions.

Setting the PCI MRRS to a value of 4096 (overriding the system decided value) had provided perf improvement in TX. But, IBM has provided feedback that on POWER platforms, this value is set by the system firmware, and drivers modifying this value can cause unpredictable results (like EEH errors.) So, backing off this change. On POWER7 platforms most slots, it seems, do get a MRRS of 4096.

The hardware bit IXGBE_RXD_STAT_VP appears to be set even when Rx stripping is disabled. This results in passing frames up the stack which do not have the 802.1Q tag stripped but have the tci bits set as if it was. Working around this with a check for the feature flag bit. I would welcome any better ideas or a pointer to exactly which bits in the hardware register need to be cleared to get the IXGBE_RXD_STAT_VP bit to be set per data sheet.
