Eric W. Biederman b1b718173a vmxnet3: Call dev_kfree_skb_any instead of dev_kfree_skb.
Replace dev_kfree_skb with dev_kfree_skb_any in vmnet3_tx_xmit which
can be called in hard irq and other contexts.  vmnet3_tx_xmit only
frees skbs that it has dropped.

Arnd Bergmann 0a8d8c446b vmxnet3: fix building without CONFIG_PCI_MSI
Since commit d25f06ea46 "vmxnet3: fix netpoll race condition",
the vmxnet3 driver fails to build when CONFIG_PCI_MSI is disabled,
because it unconditionally references the vmxnet3_msix_rx()
function.

To fix this, use the same #ifdef in the caller that exists around
the function definition.

Neil Horman d25f06ea46 vmxnet3: fix netpoll race condition
vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded.  It directly calls
vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine.  As the netpoll
controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential
for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll
method run concurrently.  The result is data corruption causing panics such as this
one recently observed:

The fix is to do as other drivers do, and have the poll controller call the top
half interrupt handler, which schedules a napi poll properly to recieve frames

Tested by myself, successfully.

Neil Horman 48412a7e7d vmxnet3: fix ethtool ring buffer size setting
Noticed that vmxnet3's get_ringparam function was returning the summation of all
ring buffers on a NIC, rather than just the size of any one ring.  This causes
problems when a vmxnet3 instance has multiple queues, as ethtool, when setting
ring parameters, first gets the current ring parameters to set the existing
values in the set_ringparm commannd.  The result is, that unless both rx and tx
ring sizes are set in a single operation, which ever ring is not set will
silently have its ring count multiplied by the number of queues on the NIC until
it reaches a driver defined maxiumum value.

Fix it by not multiplying the rx and tx ring sizes by the number of queues in
the system, like every other driver.  Tested by myself successfully.

as we fixed the same problem in 'net-next' by eliminating cached
neighbours from ipv6 routes.

The e1000e conflict is an addition of a new statistic in the ethtool
code, trivial.

The vmxnet3 conflict is about one change in 'net' removing a guarding
conditional, whilst in 'net-next' we had a netdev_info() conversion.

The iwlwifi conflict is dealing with a WARN_ON() conversion in
'net-next' vs. a revert happening in 'net'.

Neil Horman 6cdd20c380 vmxnet3: set carrier state properly on probe
vmxnet3 fails to set netif_carrier_off on probe, meaning that when an interface
is opened the __LINK_STATE_NOCARRIER bit is already cleared, and so
/sys/class/net/<ifname>/operstate remains in the unknown state.  Correct this by
setting netif_carrier_off on probe, like other drivers do.

Also, while we're at it, lets remove the netif_carrier_ok checks from the
link_state_update function, as that check is atomically contained within the
netif_carrier_[on|off] functions anyway

Neil Horman b203262de6 vmxnet3: cap copy length at size of skb to prevent dropped frames on tx
I was recently shown that vmxnet3 devices on transmit, will drop very small udp
frames consistently.  This is due to a regression introduced by commit
39d4a96fd7.  This commit attempts to introduce an
optimization to the tx path, indicating that the underlying hardware behaves
optimally when at least 54 bytes of header data are available for direct access.
This causes problems however, if the entire frame is less than 54 bytes long.
The subsequent pskb_may_pull in vmxnet3_parse_and_copy_hdr fails, causing an
error return code, which leads to vmxnet3_tq_xmit dropping the frame.

Fix it by placing a cap on the copy length.  For frames longer than 54 bytes, we
do the pull as we normally would.  If the frame is shorter than that, copy the
whole frame, but no more.  This ensures that we still get the optimization for
qualifying frames, but don't do any damange for frames that are too short.

Also, since I'm unable to do this, it wuold be great if vmware could follow up
this patch with some additional code commentary as to why 54 bytes is an optimal
pull length for a virtual NIC driver.  The comment that introduced this was
vague on that.  Thanks!

Ben Hutchings 278bc4296b ethtool: Define and apply a default policy for RX flow hash indirection
All drivers that support modification of the RX flow hash indirection
table initialise it in the same way: RX rings are assigned to table
entries in rotation.  Make that default policy explicit by having them
call a ethtool_rxfh_indir_default() function.

In the ethtool core, add support for a zero size value for
ETHTOOL_SRXFHINDIR, which resets the table to this default.

Ben Hutchings 7850f63f16 ethtool: Centralise validation of ETHTOOL_{G, S}RXFHINDIR parameters
Add a new ethtool operation (get_rxfh_indir_size) to get the
indirectional table size.  Use this to validate the user buffer size
before calling get_rxfh_indir or set_rxfh_indir.  Use get_rxnfc to get
the number of RX rings, and validate the contents of the new
indirection table before calling set_rxfh_indir.  Remove this
validation from drivers.
