amd-xgbe: AMD XGBE driver updates 2014-09-03

The following series of patches includes fixes/updates to the driver.

- Query the device for the actual speed mode (KR/KX) rather than trying
  to track it
- Update parallel detection logic to support KR mode
- Fix new warnings from checkpatch in the amd-xgbe and amd-xgbe-phy
  driver

This patch series is based on net-next.

Since device resets can change the current mode it's possible to think
the device is in a different mode than it actually is.  Rather than
trying to determine every place that is needed to set/save the current
mode, be safe and check the devices actual mode when needed rather than
trying to track it.

enic: Add support for rx_copybreak

The following series implements rx_copybreak.

dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single() is more expensive than alloc_skb & memcpy
for smaller packets. By doing this we can reuse the dma buff which is already
mapped. This is very useful when iommu is on. The default skb copybreak value
is 256.

When iommu is on, we can go much higher than 256. All the drivers that supports
rx_copybreak provides module parameter to change this value. Since module
parameter is the least preferred way for changing driver values, this series
adds ethtool support for setting rx_copybreak.

v4:
Validate tunable length in ethtool_get_tunable, not in driver implemented
function.

Loose tunable_ops array for each tunable type. Define one function and let the
driver use switch case for each type.

Use double underscore for data type in UAPI headers.
Use const qualifier where possible.

v3:
Add tunable namespace to ethtool. Use new ethtool cmd ETHTOOL_S/GTUNABLE to
set/get rx_copybreak from userspace.

v2:
Add new ethtool_cmd for DMA buffer parameters, instead of adding new members to
existing ethtool_ringparam.

Marcel reported to see the following message when autoloading
is being triggered when adding nlmon device:

  Loading kernel module for a network device with
  CAP_SYS_MODULE (deprecated). Use CAP_NET_ADMIN and alias
  netdev-nlmon instead.

This false-positive happens despite with having correct
capabilities set, e.g. through issuing `ip link del dev nlmon`
more than once on a valid device with name nlmon, but Marcel
has also seen it on creation time when no nlmon module is
previously compiled-in or loaded as module and the device
name equals a link type name (e.g. nlmon, vxlan, team).

Stephen says:

  The netdev module alias is a hold over from the past. For
  normal devices, people used to create a alias eth0 to and
  point it to the type of network device used, that was back
  in the bad old ISA days before real discovery.

  Also, the tunnels create module alias for the control device
  and ip used to use this to autoload the tunnel device.

  The message is bogus and should just be removed, I also see
  it in a couple of other cases where tap devices are renamed
  for other usese.

As mentioned in 8909c9ad ("net: don't allow CAP_NET_ADMIN
to load non-netdev kernel modules"), we nevertheless still
might want to leave the old autoloading behaviour in place
as it could break old scripts, so for now, lets just remove
the log message as Stephen suggests.

With eBPF getting more extended and exposure to user space is on it's way,
hardening the memory range the interpreter uses to steer its command flow
seems appropriate.  This patch moves the to be interpreted bytecode to
read-only pages.

In case we execute a corrupted BPF interpreter image for some reason e.g.
caused by an attacker which got past a verifier stage, it would not only
provide arbitrary read/write memory access but arbitrary function calls
as well. After setting up the BPF interpreter image, its contents do not
change until destruction time, thus we can setup the image on immutable
made pages in order to mitigate modifications to that code. The idea
is derived from commit 314beb9b ("x86: bpf_jit_comp: secure bpf jit
against spraying attacks").

This is possible because bpf_prog is not part of sk_filter anymore.
After setup bpf_prog cannot be altered during its life-time. This prevents
any modifications to the entire bpf_prog structure (incl. function/JIT
image pointer).

Every eBPF program (including classic BPF that are migrated) have to call
bpf_prog_select_runtime() to select either interpreter or a JIT image
as a last setup step, and they all are being freed via bpf_prog_free(),
including non-JIT. Therefore, we can easily integrate this into the
eBPF life-time, plus since we directly allocate a bpf_prog, we have no
performance penalty.

Tested with seccomp and test_bpf testsuite in JIT/non-JIT mode and manual
inspection of kernel_page_tables.  Brad Spengler proposed the same idea
via Twitter during development of this patch.

Joint work with Hannes Frederic Sowa.

When we bring the interface down, phy_stop() will schedule the PHY
state machine to call our link adjustment callback. By the time we do so,
we may have clock gated off the SYSTEMPORT hardware block, and this will
cause bus errors to happen in bcm_sysport_adj_link():

Make sure that we only touch the UMAC_CMD register when there is an
actual link. This is safe to do for two reasons:

- updating the Ethernet MAC registers only make sense when a physical
  link is present
- the PHY library state machine first set phydev->link = 0 before
  invoking phydev->adjust_link in the PHY_HALTED case

This is a similar fix to the GENET one:
c677ba8b ("net: bcmgenet: update
UMAC_CMD only when link is detected").

As in IPv6 people might increase the igmp query robustness variable to
make sure unsolicited state change reports aren't lost on the network. Add
and document this new knob to igmp code.

RFCs allow tuning this parameter back to first IGMP RFC, so we also use
this setting for all counters, including source specific multicast.

Also take over sysctl value when upping the interface and don't reuse
the last one seen on the interface.

Although rhashtable library allows user to specify a quiet big size
for user's created hash table, the table may be shrunk to a
very small size - HASH_MIN_SIZE(4) after object is removed from
the table at the first time. Subsequently, even if the total amount
of objects saved in the table is quite lower than user's initial
setting in a long time, the hash table size is still dynamically
adjusted by rhashtable_shrink() or rhashtable_expand() each time
object is inserted or removed from the table. However, as
synchronize_rcu() has to be called when table is shrunk or
expanded by the two functions, we should permit user to set the
minimum table size through configuring the minimum number of shifts
according to user specific requirement, avoiding these expensive
actions of shrinking or expanding because of calling synchronize_rcu().

In commit 50cbe9ab ("net: Validate xmit SKBs right when we
pull them out of the qdisc") the validation code was moved out of
dev_hard_start_xmit and into dequeue_skb.

However this overlooked the fact that we do not always enqueue
the skb onto a qdisc. First situation is if qdisc have flag
TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS and qdisc is empty.  Second situation is if
there is no qdisc on the device, which is a common case for
software devices.

Originally spotted and inital patch by Alexander Duyck.
As a result Alex was seeing issues trying to connect to a
vhost_net interface after commit 50cbe9ab was applied.

Added a call to validate_xmit_skb() in __dev_xmit_skb(), in the
code path for qdiscs with TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS flag, and in
__dev_queue_xmit() when no qdisc.

Also handle the error situation where dev_hard_start_xmit() could
return a skb list, and does not return dev_xmit_complete(rc) and
falls through to the kfree_skb(), in that situation it should
call kfree_skb_list().

be2net: patch set

v2 changes: add a new line after variable declaration in patch 12.

***
Patch 1 adds a few new log messages to help debugging in failure cases.

Patch 2 uses new macros for parsing RX/TX completions and TX wrbs to
help shorten the lines.

Patch 3 adds a description for the RX counter rx_input_fifo_overflow_drop.

Patch 4 adds TX completion error statistics reporting via ethtool.

Patch 5 adds a dma_mapping_error counter and its reporting via ethtool.

Patch 6 fixes up log messages in the Lancer FW download path.

Patch 7 replaces gotos with direct return statements.

Patch 8 cleans up be_change_mtu() code by using a new macro BE_MAX_MTU

Patch 9 makes be_cmd_get_regs() routine to return an integer status
similar to other FW cmd routines in be_cmds.c

Patch 10 gets rid of TX budget as enforcing a budget on TX completion
processing in NAPI is neither suggested nor it provides a performance benefit.

Patch 11 defines and uses a new macro for_all_tx_queues_on_eq() similar
to the RX processing code.

Patch 12 queries max_tx_qs from the FW for BE3 super-nic profiles.
For those profiles, the driver cannot assume a constant BE3_MAX_TX_QS value,
as the value may change for each function.
