It confuses sparse, which thinks the size isn't constant. Let's achieve the same thing with a BUILD_BUG_ON, since we know which one should be bigger and don't expect them ever to change. Signed-off-by: Edward Cree <ecree@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Fix a potential NULL-pointer exception in rxrpc_do_sendmsg(). The call state check that I added should have gone into the else-body of the if-statement where we actually have a call to check.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== nfp: RX and XDP buffer fixes Two trivial fixes for code introduced with XDP support. First one corrects the buffer size we populate a register with. The register is designed to be used for scatter transfers which the driver (and most FWs) don't support so it's not critical. The other one for DMA direction is mostly cosmetic, DMA API doesn't seem to care today about the precise direction in sync calls. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Since commit c0f031bc ("nfp_net: use alloc_frag() and build_skb()") we are allocating buffers which have to hold both the data and skb to be created in place by build_skb(). FW should only be told about the buffer space it can DMA to, that is without the build_skb() headroom and tailroom. Note: firmware applications should validate the buffers against both MTU and free list buffer size so oversized packets would not pass through the NIC anyway.

Jon Mason says: ==================== net: ethernet: bgmac: bug fixes Changes in v5: * Rebased to the latest code and fixed up a compile error due to the mac_addr struct going away (found by David Miller) Changes in v4: * Added the udelays from the previous code (per David Miller) Changes in v3: * Reworked the init sequence patch to only remove the device reset if the device is actually in reset. Given that this code doesn't bear much resemblance to the original code, I'm changing the author of the patch. This was tested on NS2 SVK.

Fix a bug in the 'bgmac' driver init sequence that blind writes for init sequence where it should preserve most bits other than the ones it is deliberately manipulating. The code now checks to see if the adapter needs to be brought out of reset (where as before it was doing an IDM write to bring it out of reset regardless of whether it was in reset or not). Also, removed unnecessary usleeps (as there is already a read present to flush the IDM writes).

On architectures that have a cache line size larger than 64 Bytes we start running into issues where the amount of headroom for the frame starts shrinking. The size of skb_shared_info on a system with a 64B L1 cache line size is 320. This increases to 384 with a 128B cache line, and 512 with a 256B cache line. In addition the NET_SKB_PAD value increases as well consistent with the cache line size. As a result when we get to a 256B cache line as seen on the s390 we end up 768 bytes used by padding and shared info leaving us with only 1280 bytes to use for data storage. On architectures such as this we should default to using 3K Rx buffers out of a 8K page instead of trying to do 1.5K buffers out of a 4K page. To take all of this into account I have added one small check so that we compare the max_frame to the amount of actual data we can store. This was already occurring for igb, but I had overlooked it for ixgbe as it doesn't have strict limits for 82599 once we enable jumbo frames. By adding this check we will automatically enable 3K Rx buffers as soon as the maximum frame size we can handle drops below the standard Ethernet MTU. I also went through and fixed one small typo that I found where I had left an IGB in a variable name due to a copy/paste error.

Board Data File (BDF) is loaded upon driver boot-up procedure. The right board data file is identified, among others, by device and sybsystem ids. The problem, however, can occur when the (default) board data file cannot fulfill with the vendor requirements and it is necessary to use a different board data file. To solve the issue QCA uses SMBIOS type 0xF8 to store Board Data File Name Extension to specify the extension/variant name. The driver will take the extension suffix into consideration and will load the right (non-default) board data file if necessary. If it is unnecessary to use extension board data file, please leave the SMBIOS field blank and default configuration will be used. Example: If a default board data file for a specific board is identified by a string "bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=1028, subsystem-device=0310" then the OEM specific data file, if used, could be identified by variant suffix: "bus=pci,vendor=168c,device=003e,subsystem-vendor=1028, subsystem-device=0310,variant=DE_1AB" If board data file name extension is set but board-2.bin does not contain board data file for the variant, the driver will fallback to the default board data file not to break backward compatibility. This was first applied in commit f2593cb1 ("ath10k: Search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension") but later reverted in commit 005c3490 ("Revert "ath10k: Search SMBIOS for OEM board file extension"". This patch is now otherwise the same as commit f2593cb1 except the regression fixed.
