====================
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.

Please consider applying this patch set to the net-next tree. Thanks!

Willem de Bruijn 364a9e9324 sock: deduplicate errqueue dequeue
sk->sk_error_queue is dequeued in four locations. All share the
exact same logic. Deduplicate.

Also collapse the two critical sections for dequeue (at the top of
the recv handler) and signal (at the bottom).

This moves signal generation for the next packet forward, which should
be harmless.

It also changes the behavior if the recv handler exits early with an
error. Previously, a signal for follow-up packets on the errqueue
would then not be scheduled. The new behavior, to always signal, is
arguably a bug fix.

For rxrpc, the change causes the same function to be called repeatedly
for each queued packet (because the recv handler == sk_error_report).
It is likely that all packets will fail for the same reason (e.g.,
memory exhaustion).

This code runs without sk_lock held, so it is not safe to trust that
sk->sk_err is immutable inbetween releasing q->lock and the subsequent
test. Introduce int err just to avoid this potential race.

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI

I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:

- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code

What is in this seventh patch set:

- Add skb->csum. This allows a device or GRO to indicate that an
  invalid checksum was detected.
- Checksum unncessary to checksum complete conversions.

With these changes, I believe that the third goal of the overhaul is
now mostly achieved. In the case of no encapsulation or one layer of
encapsulation, there should only be at most one skb_checksum over
each packet (between GRO and normal path). In the case of two layers
of encapsulation, it is still possible with the right combination of
non-zero and zero UDP checksums to have >1 skb_checksum. For instance:
IP>GRE(with csum)>IP>UDP(zero csum)>VXLAN>IP>UDP(non-zero csum),
would likely necessiate an skb_checksum in GRO and normal path.
This doesn't seem like a common scenario at all so I'm inclined to
not address this now, if multiple layers of encapsulation becomes
popular we can reassess.

Note that checksum conversion shows a nice improvement for RX VXLAN when
outer UDP checksum is enabled (12.65% CPU compared to 20.94%). This
is not only from the fact that we don't need checksum calculation on
the host, but also allows GRO for VXLAN in this case. Checksum
conversion does not help send side (which still needs to perform
a checksum on host). For that we will implement remote checksum offload
in a later patch
(http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-00).

Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

In the normal UDP path, we call skb_checksum_try_convert after locating

In the UDP GRO path, we call skb_gro_checksum_try_convert after
checksum is validated and checksum field is non-zero. Since this is

Tom Herbert d96535a17d net: Infrastructure for checksum unnecessary conversions
For normal path, added skb_checksum_try_convert which is called
to attempt to convert CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE. The
primary condition to allow this is that ip_summed is CHECKSUM_NONE
and csum_valid is true, which will be the state after consuming
a CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.

For GRO path, added skb_gro_checksum_try_convert which is the GRO
analogue of skb_checksum_try_convert. The primary condition to allow
this is that NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_cnt == 0 and
NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->csum_valid is set. This implies that we have consumed
all available CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY checksums in the GRO path.

Tom Herbert 5a21232983 net: Support for csum_bad in skbuff
This flag indicates that an invalid checksum was detected in the
packet. __skb_mark_checksum_bad helper function was added to set this.

Checksums can be marked bad from a driver or the GRO path (the latter
is implemented in this patch). csum_bad is checked in
__skb_checksum_validate_complete (i.e. calling that when ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_NONE).

csum_bad works in conjunction with ip_summed value. In the case that
ip_summed is CHECKSUM_NONE and csum_bad is set, this implies that the
first (or next) checksum encountered in the packet is bad. When
ip_summed is CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, the first checksum after the last
one validated is bad. For example, if ip_summed == CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY,
csum_level == 1, and csum_bad is set-- then the third checksum in the
packet is bad. In the normal path, the packet will be dropped when
processing the protocol layer of the bad checksum:
__skb_decr_checksum_unnecessary called twice for the good checksums
changing ip_summed to CHECKSUM_NONE so that
__skb_checksum_validate_complete is called to validate the third
checksum and that will fail since csum_bad is set.

Erik Hugne a5325ae5b8 tipc: add name distributor resiliency queue
TIPC name table updates are distributed asynchronously in a cluster,
entailing a risk of certain race conditions. E.g., if two nodes
simultaneously issue conflicting (overlapping) publications, this may
not be detected until both publications have reached a third node, in
which case one of the publications will be silently dropped on that
node. Hence, we end up with an inconsistent name table.

In most cases this conflict is just a temporary race, e.g., one
node is issuing a publication under the assumption that a previous,
conflicting, publication has already been withdrawn by the other node.
However, because of the (rtt related) distributed update delay, this
may not yet hold true on all nodes. The symptom of this failure is a
syslog message: "tipc: Cannot publish {%u,%u,%u}, overlap error".

In this commit we add a resiliency queue at the receiving end of
the name table distributor. When insertion of an arriving publication
fails, we retain it in this queue for a short amount of time, assuming
that another update will arrive very soon and clear the conflict. If so
happens, we insert the publication, otherwise we drop it.

The (configurable) retention value defaults to 2000 ms. Knowing from
experience that the situation described above is extremely rare, there
is no risk that the queue will accumulate any large number of items.

David S. Miller 53fda7f7f9 Merge branch 'xmit_list'
David Miller says:

====================
net: Make dev_hard_start_xmit() work fundamentally on lists

After this patch set, dev_hard_start_xmit() will work fundemantally on
any and all SKB lists.

This opens the path for a clean implementation of pulling multiple
packets out during qdisc_restart(), and then passing that blob in one
shot to dev_hard_start_xmit().

There were two main architectural blockers to this:

1) The GSO handling, we kept the original GSO head SKB around simply
   because dev_hard_start_xmit() had no way to communicate to the
   caller how far into the segmented list it was able to go.  Now it
   can, so the head GSO can be liberated immediately.

   All of the special GSO head SKB destructor et al. handling goes
   away too.

2) Validate of VLAN, CSUM, and segmentation characteristics was being
   performed inside of dev_hard_start_xmit().  If want to truly batch,
   we have to let the higher levels to this.  In particular, this is
   now dequeue_skb()'s job.

And with those two issues out of the way, it should now be trivial to
build experiments on top of this patch set, all of the framework
should be there now.  You could do something as simple as:

	skb = q->dequeue(q);
	if (skb)
		skb = validate_xmit_skb(skb, qdisc_dev(q));
	if (skb) {
		struct sk_buff *new, *head = skb;
		int limit = 5;

		do {
			new = q->dequeue(q);
			if (new)
				new = validate_xmit_skb(new, qdisc_dev(q));
			if (new) {
				skb->next = new;
				skb = new;
			}
		} while (new && --limit);
		skb = head;
	}

inside of the else branch of dequeue_skb().

David S. Miller 8dcda22a5d net: xmit_list() becomes dev_hard_start_xmit().
Now fundamentally we can process lists of SKBs as cheaply
as single packets.

David S. Miller eae3f88ee4 net: Separate out SKB validation logic from transmit path.
dev_hard_start_xmit() does two things, it first validates and
canonicalizes the SKB, then it actually sends it.

Make a set of helper functions for doing the first part.

David S. Miller 7f2e870f2a net: Move main gso loop out of dev_hard_start_xmit() into helper.
There is a slight policy change happening here as well.

The previous code would drop the entire rest of the GSO skb if any of
them got, for example, a congestion notification.

That makes no sense, anything NET_XMIT_MASK and below is something
like congestion or policing.  And in the congestion case it doesn't
even mean the packet was actually dropped.

Just continue until dev_xmit_complete() evaluates to false.

David S. Miller 030824e039 Merge branch 'csums-next'
Tom Herbert says:

====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI

I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:

- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code

What is in this sixth patch set:

- Clarify the specific requirements of devices returning
  CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h).
- Add csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
  many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
- Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum
  as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed.
- Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new
  csum_level model.
- Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
  and to report new verfied checksums for use in normal path fallback.
- Add proper support to SCTP to accept CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to validate
  header CRC.
- Modify drivers to set skb->csum_level instead of setting
  skb->encapsulation to indicate validation of an encapsulated
  checksum on receive.

v2:

Allocate a new 16 bits for flags in skbuff.

Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)
