Jesse Gross eab6d18d20 vlan: Don't check for vlan group before vlan_tx_tag_present.
Many (but not all) drivers check to see whether there is a vlan
group configured before using a tag stored in the skb.  There's
not much point in this check since it just throws away data that
should only be present in the expected circumstances.  However,
it will soon be legal and expected to get a vlan tag when no
vlan group is configured, so remove this check from all drivers
to avoid dropping the tags.

Jesse Gross b738127dfb vlan: Rename VLAN_GROUP_ARRAY_LEN to VLAN_N_VID.
VLAN_GROUP_ARRAY_LEN is simply the number of possible vlan VIDs.
Since vlan groups will soon be more of an implementation detail
for vlan devices, rename the constant to be descriptive of its
actual purpose.

Greg Rose bba50b99b2 ixgbevf: Refactor ring parameter re-size
The function to resize the Tx/Rx rings had the potential to
dereference a NULL pointer and the code would attempt to resize
the Tx ring even if the Rx ring allocation had failed.  This
would cause some confusion in the return code semantics.  Fixed
up to just unwind the allocations if any of them fail and return
an error.

Jeff Kirsher 2d0bb1c1f4 e100/e1000*/igb*/ixgb*: Add missing read memory barrier
Based on patches from Sonny Rao and Milton Miller...

Combined the patches to fix up clean_tx_irq and clean_rx_irq.

The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes
to be ordered without adding an explicit barrier.

In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data.
With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a
stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it.

The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header
and data are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order
we may have data that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use
hardware checksumming this bad data is never verified and it makes it
all the way to the application.

This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has
been shown to fix it.  The bug can manifest as a data integrity issue
(bad payload data) or as a BUG in skb_pull().

This was a nasty bug to hunt down, if people agree with the fix I think
it's a candidate for stable.

Previously Submitted to e1000-devel only for ixgbe

http://marc.info/?l=e1000-devel&m=126593062701537&w=3

We've now seen this problem hit with other device drivers (e1000e mostly)
So I'm resubmitting with fixes for other Intel Device Drivers with
similar issues.

Kulikov Vasiliy 2540ddb512 drivers: ixgbevf: fix unsigned underflow
'count' is unsigned. It is initialized to zero, then it can be increased
multiple times, and finally it is used in such a way:

   >>>> count--;

   |    while (count >= 0) {
   |            count--;
   |            ...

If count is zero here (so, it was never increased), we would have a very
long loop :)

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Greg Rose 33bd9f601e ixgbevf: Fix VF Stats accounting after reset
The counters in the 82599 Virtual Function are not clear on read.  They
accumulate to the maximum value and then roll over.  They are also not
cleared when the VF executes a soft reset, so it is possible they are
non-zero when the driver loads and starts.  This has all been accounted
for in the code that keeps the stats up to date but there is one case
that is not.  When the PF driver is reset the counters in the VF are
all reset to zero.  This adds an additional accounting overhead into
the VF driver when the PF is reset under its feet.  This patch adds
additional counters that are used by the VF driver to accumulate and
save stats after a PF reset has been detected.  Prior to this patch
displaying the stats in the VF after the PF has reset would show
bogus data.

Greg Rose cbf698dbba ixgbevf: Mailbox communication
The 82599 virtual function device and the master 82599 physical function
device implement a mailbox utility for communication between the devices
using some SRAM scratch memory and a doorbell/answering mechanism enabled
via interrupt and/or polling.  This C module and accompanying header
file implement the base functions for use of this feature.
