Using a (delayed) workqueue for ERR006358 is not correct - a work queue
is a single-trigger device. Once the work queue has been scheduled, it
can't be re-scheduled until it has been run. This can cause problems -
with an appropriate packet timing, we can end up with packets queued,
but not sent by the hardware, resulting in the transmit timeout firing.
Re-implement this as per the workaround detailed in the ERR006358
documentation - if there are packets waiting to be sent when we service
the transmit ring, and we see that the transmitter is not running,
kick the transmitter to run the pending entries in the ring.
Testing here with a 10Mbit half duplex link sees the resulting iperf
TCP bandwidth increase from between 1 to 2Mbps to between 8 to 9Mbps.

It creates xen-netback/[vifname]/io_ring_q[queueno] files, reading them output
various ring variables etc. Writing "kick" into it imitates an interrupt

Many places call fec_restart() with the second parameter being some kind
of previously saved duplex value, but only two places call it with some
other setting. This is at odds with how the other link settings are
handled, and used to be racy before the rtnl locks were added to
fec_restart()'s various call paths.
Clean this up so all link capabilities are handled in the same way -
saved into the fec_enet_private structure, and then fec_restart() acts
on those settings.

Changing the features (receive checksumming) requires the hardware to be
reprogrammed, and also changes the checks in the receive packet
processing.
The current implementation has a race - fec_set_features() changes the
flags which alter the receive packet processing while the adapter is
active, and potentially receiving frames. Only after we've modified
the software flag do we shutdown and reconfigure the hardware.
This can lead to packets being received and marked with a valid checksum
(via CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY) when the hardware checksum validation has not
yet been enabled.
We must quiesce the device, then change the software configuration for
this feature, and then resume the device if it was previously running.
The resulting code structure also allows us to add other configuration
features in this path without having to quiesce and resume the network
interface and device.

fec_set_features() calls fec_stop() to stop the transmit ring while the
transmit queue is still active. This can lead to the transmit ring
being restarted by an intervening packet queued for transmission, or
by the tx quirk timer expiring.
Fix this by disabling NAPI (which ensures that the NAPI handlers are
not running), and then take the transmit lock while we stop and
restart the adapter (which prevents new packets being queued).

fec_suspend() calls fec_stop() to stop the transmit ring while the
transmit packet processing is still active. This can lead to the
transmit queue being restarted by an intervening packet queued for
transmission, or by the tx quirk timer expiring.
Fix this by disabling NAPI first, which will ensure that the NAPI
handlers are not running. Then, take the transmit lock before
detaching the netif device. This ensures that there are no races
with the transmit path - and also ensures that the watchdog won't
fire.
We can then safely stop the ethernet device itself, knowing that the
rest of the driver is safely shut down.
On resume, we bring the device back up in reverse order - we restart
the device, reattach the device (under the tx lock), and then enable
the NAPI handlers.
We also need to adjust the close function to cope with this new
sequence, so that it's possible to cleanly close down the driver
after the hardware fails to resume (eg, due to the regulator_enable()
or pinctrl calls in the resume path returning an error.)

This is the second stage to "move calls to quiesce/resume packet
processing out of fec_restart()", where we remove calls which are not
appropriate to the call site.
In the majority of cases, there is no need to detach and reattach the
interface as we are holding the queue xmit lock across the reset. The
exception to that is in fec_resume(), where we are already detached by
the suspend function. Here, we can remove the call to detach the
interface.
We also do not need to stop the transmit queue. Holding the xmit lock
is enough to ensure that the transmit packet processing is not running
while we perform our task. However, since fec_restart() always cleans
the rings, we call netif_wake_queue() (or netif_device_attach() in the
case of resume) just before dropping the xmit lock. This prevents the
watchdog firing.
Lastly, always call napi_enable() after the device has been reattached
in the resume path so that we know that the transmit packet processing
is already in an enabled state, so we don't call netif_wake_queue()
while detached.

Avoid calling fec_restart() or fec_stop() while the device is down
or not present (iow suspended.)
Although the ndo_timeout method will only be called if the device is
present and running, we defer this to a work queue. The work queue
can run independently, and so needs to repeat these checks to ensure
that a restart doesn't occur after the device has been taken down or
detached for suspend. In this case, we call fec_restart() in the
resume path, so nothing is lost.
For fec_set_features, we add a call to fec_restart() in fec_enet_open()
to ensure that the hardware is appropriate programmed when the interface
is opened. fec_set_features() call should not occur while we're
suspended, so we don't have to worry about that case.
The adjust_link needs similar treatment - this also is called from a
work queue, which may be run independently after we have taken the
device down and detached it. In this case, we just mark the link
down and take no further action. We will reset things appropriately
once the device is up and running again, at which point we will receive
another adjust_link callback.

In 40GE we can't use the default bw units for set ratelimit (100 Mbps)
since the max is 255*100 Mbps = 25 Gbps (not suited for 40GE), thus we need 1 Gbps units.
But for 10GE 1 Gbps units might be too bruit so we use the following solution.
For user set ratelimit <= 25 Gbps:
use 100 Mbps units * user_ratelimit (* 10).
For user set ratelimit > 25 Gbps:
use 1 Gbps units * user_ratelimit.
For user set unlimited ratelimit (0 Gbps):
use 1 Gbps units * MAX_RATELIMIT_DEFAULT (57)
Note: any value > 58 will damage the FW ratelimit computation, so we allow

bridge: multicast snooping exports #2
Some people pointed out to me that it might be helpful to add stubs for
the newly added multicast exports. That way e.g. batman-adv should continue
to be compile and useable without having to have a kernel compiled
with bridge code in the future. This is what the first patch is supposed
to do.
The second patch adds a third multicast export for the bridge which
e.g. batman-adv is supposed to use, too, soon: Just like the bridge
disables its multicast snooping activities if no querier is present,
batman-adv needs to do the same if bridges are involved.
These three exports should be the final ones needed to marry the bridge
multicast snooping with the batman-adv multicast optimizations recently
added for the 3.15 kernel, allowing to use these optimzations in common
setups having a bridge on top of e.g. bat0, too. So far these bridged
setups would fall back to simple flooding through the batman-adv mesh
network for any multicast packet entering bat0.
More information about the batman-adv multicast optimizations currently
implemented can be found here:
http://www.open-mesh.org/projects/batman-adv/wiki/Basic-multicast-optimizations
The integration on the batman-adv side could afterwards look like this,
for instance (now including the third export):
http://git.open-mesh.org/batman-adv.git/commitdiff/61e4f6af4b7a21ed4040f2e711d50c778e5b6d93?hp=6ae4281474675fbca5bedcf768972a32db586eb6
====================
With this patch other modules are able to ask the bridge whether an
IGMP or MLD querier exists on the according, bridged link layer.
Multicast snooping can only be performed if a valid, selected querier
exists on a link.
Just like the bridge only enables its multicast snooping if a querier
exists, e.g. batman-adv too can only activate its multicast
snooping in bridged scenarios if a querier is present.
For instance this export avoids having to reimplement IGMP/MLD
querier message snooping and parsing in e.g. batman-adv, when
multicast optimizations for bridged scenarios are added in the
future.

defxx: Fixes for 64-bit host support
This mini patch series addresses issues with 64-bit host support for FDDI
interface boards supported by the defxx driver where DMA mapping
synchronisation is required on swiotlb systems. While PDQ, the DMA engine
chip used with these boards, supports 48-bit addressing that would
normally suffice for typical 64-bit systems in existence, the host bus
interface chips used by individual implementations have their limitations
as follows:
* DEFTA or DEC FDDIcontroller/TURBOchannel -- there's no host bus
interface chip, the PDQ connects to TURBOchannel directly; TURBOchannel
supports DMA addressing of up to 16GB (34-bit addressing), however no
TURBOchannel system has ever been made that supports more than 1GB of
RAM, so in reality no remapping is ever required,
* DEFEA or DEC FDDIcontroller/EISA -- the ESIC EISA interface chip only
supports 32-bit addressing, all accesses beyond 4GB have to be remapped,
* DEFPA or DEC FDDIcontroller/PCI -- the PFI PCI interface chip rev. 1 & 2
only support 32-bit addressing, they have 32 AD lines only both on the
PDQ and the PCI side, and consequently no Dual Address Cycle support, so
all accesses beyond 4GB have to be remapped; the range of addressing
supported by PFI rev. 3 is currently not certain, however the chip is
backwards compatible with earlier revisions and will work with code that
supports them.
Some other issues discovered in the course of correcting 64-bit support
have been fixed as well. Each of the patches is functionally
self-contained and can be applied independentely, although there may be
mechanical dependencies making it necessary to apply patches in order.
The driver suffers from non-standard formatting and while I did my best
with these bug fixes to follow our coding style, I found some pieces
hopeless, checkpatch.pl will complain. I plan to reformat the whole
driver, that will inevitably require factoring out some pieces into
separate functions, but that's going to be a major effort and therefore I
want to do this separately, with no functional changes made at the same
time. If anyone has specific suggestions as to how to reformat any of the
pieces submitted here for a better layout, then I'll be happy to take them
into account.
And last but not least many thanks to Robert Coerver, who was the most
recent person to report this problem with the driver and was kind enough
to patiently try a few revisions of the driver update on his system as I
was finding and addressing issues.

This adds DMA synchronisation calls needed in the receive path:
1. To retrieve the Receive Status word that is prepended by the PDQ DMA
engine in the receive buffer, and provides information about the
frame received, including its size and any errors.
2. To make data received available for copying in the small-frame case
(size <= SKBUFF_RX_COPYBREAK) where the original DMA buffer will be
returned to the receive descriptor ring and therefore its mapping
retained.
With DMA mapping error handling in place, added by the other patch,
this may now also trigger where an attempt to map a newly allocated
buffer for DMA has failed. In that case data from the original buffer
will be copied out and the buffer returned to the DMA descriptor ring.
These calls may do nothing when data is in the host DMA addressing range
of the FDDI interface, such as always on 32-bit systems, however their
absence makes frame reception stop functioning reliably on systems that
have memory beyond the low 4GB of the address space.

A good side-effect is the mapping in the transmit path is now made with

out (as is presently done for small frames only whose size does not
exceed SKBUFF_RX_COPYBREAK) and the original buffer returned, with its

Receive DMA maps are oversized, they include EISA legacy 128-byte

for data. Worse yet, if the skb's data area has been realigned indeed,
then data beyond the end of the buffer will be synchronised from the
receive DMA bounce buffer, possibly corrupting data structures residing
in memory beyond the actual end of this data buffer.
Therefore switch to using PI_RCV_DATA_K_SIZE_MAX rather than NEW_SKB_SIZE
in DMA mapping, the value the former macro expands to is written to the
receive ring DMA descriptor of the PDQ DMA chip and determines the
maximum amount of data PDQ will ever transfer to the corresponding data
buffer, including all headers and padding.

As well as being a lot of instructions the sequence is unlikely to
be optimised by the store-load forward hardware so will be slow.
Instead allocate a field of the union that is the same size as the
entire union and write a zero value to it. The compiler will then
generate the required value in a register.
Zeroing the union shouldn't be necessary, but this patch series isn't
intended to have a behavioural change.

sctp_init_cmd_seq() and sctp_next_cmd() are only called from one place.
The call sequence for sctp_add_cmd_sf() is likely to be longer than
the inlined code.
With sctp_add_cmd_sf() inlined the compiler can optimise repeated calls.

pull request: wireless-next 2014-07-03
Please pull this first batch of wireless updates intended for the
3.17 stream...
For the mac80211 bits, Johannes says:
"The biggest thing here is probably Arik's TDLS rework, beyond that we
have smaller improvements and features like David's scanning IE thing,
Luca's queue work, some CSA work, etc. Also your PID rate control
removal, of course."
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have here a whole bunch of various things. Andy contributes
better debug prints for dvm specific flows and a module parameter to
completely disable power save for dvm. Andrei is sharing the premises
of his work on CSA - more to come. Eran and Liad keep on working
on the new devices. I have the regular amount of BT Coex stuff and
I continue to work on the firmware error report system adding more
debug capabilities. More to come on that subject too."
On top of that, there are some cleanups to the new rsi driver, some
continuing improvements to the rtl818x drivers, and the usual bundles
of updates to ath9k, b43, mwifiex, wil6210, and a few other bits here
and there.

load_pointer() is already a static inline function.
Let's move it into filter.h so BPF JIT implementations can reuse this
function.
Since we're exporting this function, let's also rename it to
bpf_load_pointer() for clarity.

This fixes compiler warnings:
drivers/net/ethernet/amd/declance.c: In function 'lance_init_ring':

drivers/net/ethernet/amd/declance.c:520: warning: cast from pointer to integer of different size
in 64-bit compilation. Where the value printed is an offset (whose range
will always fit) the cast uses a 32-bit type, otherwise, where it is a
host memory address, the pointer is output directly with %p. Also the
remaining `0x' prefix is dropped for consistency across these messages.
Tested with both 32-bit and 64-bit compilation, as well as at the run time
(with the debug messages affected enabled).

====================
net/hsr: Use list_head+rcu, better frame dispatch, etc.
This patch series is meant to improve the HSR code in several ways:
* Better code readability.
* In general, make the code structure more like the net/bridge code (HSR
operates similarly to a bridge, but uses the HSR-specific frame headers to
break up rings, instead of the STP protocol).
* Better handling of HSR ports' net_device features.
* Use list_head and the _rcu list traversing routines instead of array of slave
devices.
* Make it easy to support HSR Interlink devices (for future Redbox/Quadbox
support).
* Somewhat better throughput on non-HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS archs, due
to lesser copying of skb data.
The code has been tested in a ring together with other HSR nodes running
unchanged code, on both avr32 and x86_64. There should only be one minor change
in behaviour from a user perspective:
* Anyone using the Netlink HSR_C_GET_NODE_LIST message to dump the internal
node database will notice that the database now also contains the self node.
All patches pass 'checkpatch.pl --ignore CAMELCASE --max-line-length=83
--strict' with only CHECKs, each of which have been deliberately left in place.
The final code passes sparse checks with no output.

If none of the slave interfaces are specified, struct nlattr *data[] may
be NULL. Make sure to check for that.
While I'm at it, fix the horrible error messages displayed when only one
of the slave interfaces isn't specified.

This patch removes the separate paths for frames coming from the outside, and
frames sent from the HSR device, and instead makes all frames go through
hsr_forward_skb() in hsr_forward.c. This greatly improves code readability and
also opens up the possibility for future support of the HSR Interlink device
that is the basis for HSR RedBoxes and HSR QuadBoxes, as well as VLAN
compatibility.
Other improvements:
* A reduction in the number of times an skb is copied on machines without
HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, which improves throughput somewhat.
* Headers are now created using the standard eth_header(), and using the
standard hard_header_len.
* Each HSR slave now gets its own private skb, so slave-specific fields can be
correctly set.

Also try to prevent some possible slave dereference race conditions. This is
finalized in the next patch, which abandons the slave array in favour of
a list_head list and list RCU.
