This change helps to address locking issues seen with netif_set_real_num_tx_queues and netif_set_real_num_rx_queues when used in the igb_set_interrupt_capability function. To resolve these locking issues I have moved the two function calls into __igb_open so that they can be called while the RTNL lock is held. An added advantage to this is that the number of queues is not updated until the last possible moment so if there are any issues in allocating MSI-X interrupts or resources for the rings we have time to change the values prior to updating the netdev.

This change combines the the allocation of q_vectors and rings into a single function. The advantage of this is that we are guaranteed we will avoid overlap in the L1 cache sets.

This change locks us in at 2K buffers even on a system that supports larger frames. The reason for this change is to make better use of pages and to reduce the overall truesize of frames generated by igb.

This change makes it so that we map the entire page and just sync half of it for the device at a time.

This change makes it so that we no longer use header split. The idea is to reduce partial cache line writes by hardware when handling frames larger then header size. We can compensate for the extra overhead of having to memcpy the header buffer by avoiding the cache misses seen by leaving an full skb allocated and sitting on the ring.

In order to support page based receive we will need to split up the two different types of timestamping into two separate functions. The first one will handle legacy timestamps with the value in the register, and the new one will handle timestamps in the Rx buffer itself.

This change allows us to add a mailbox versioning API. This will allow us to determine the features supported by the VFs from the PF. For example we will be implementing a version 1.1 API for the VF that will indicate that it can support us enabling Jumbo frames as the VF will support buffer chaining.

Instead of trying to maintain one large monolithic function that handles most of the different messages from the VF it makes sense to break the message handling function up so that we can just go through one switch statement and call the correct routine for a given message.

This change makes it so that we can have limited support for jumbo frames when SR-IOV is enabled. In order to accomplish this it is necessary to disable all VFs when the PF has jumbo frames enabled. If the VFs then request the same maximum frame size as the PF they will be re-enabled. A follow on patch will add a means of identifying when a VF can support spanning buffers and does not need to be worried about the actual supported max frame size.

When enabling DCB the rings belonging to a q_vector on CPU 0 were not reinitializing their DCA registers. Upon closer inspection the issue was that the q_vector CPU variable was left at 0 resulting in the driver not updating the DCA registers. In order to guarantee the DCA registers will be updated I am adding a couple line change so that we initialize the CPU variable to -1 which will force a DCA update the first time an interrupt fires on that q_vector. In addition we were setting the CPU affinity hint to all CPUs when we were not specifying a CPU. Instead we should leave it as all zeros to avoid any possible confusion about the fact that we shouldn't be giving a hint.

tcp_ioctl() tries to take into account if tcp socket received a FIN to report correct number bytes in receive queue. But its flaky because if the application ate the last skb, we return 1 instead of 0. Correct way to detect that FIN was received is to test SOCK_DONE.

On some suspend/resume operations involving wimax device, we have noticed some intermittent memory corruptions in netlink code. Stéphane Marchesin tracked this corruption in netlink_update_listeners() and suggested a patch. It appears netlink_release() should use kfree_rcu() instead of kfree() for the listeners structure as it may be used by other cpus using RCU protection. netlink_release() must set to NULL the listeners pointer when it is about to be freed. Also have to protect netlink_update_listeners() and netlink_has_listeners() if listeners is NULL. Add a nl_deref_protected() lockdep helper to properly document which locks protects us.

So far the crc16 checksum for a batman-adv broadcast data packet, received on a batman-adv hard interface, was calculated over zero bytes of its content leading to many incoming broadcast data packets wrongly being dropped (60-80% packet loss).

Pull misc UAPI fixes from David Howells: "They do a number of things: (1) Import a patch from Catalin Marinas to extend the generic-y in Kbuild facility to uapi directories. (2) Make arch/tile's ucontext.h file use (1) and remove the header-y line from the kernel internal side of things. (3) Remove some now-empty conditional bits from include/linux/Kbuild. The contents got moved to the UAPI side of things along with new conditionals. (4) Deal with now-empty files: (a) Empty Kbuild files under include/ get removed. (b) Empty Kbuild files under arch/ get comments to hold them as they are likely to end up with generic-y or genhdr-y lines. Deleting them appears to work if we want to go that route. (c) Put a comment into uapi/asm-generic/kvm_para.h to prevent the patch program from deleting that, and made the arches with empty kvm_para.h uapi files use that instead of having their own files. (d) Put comments into four other empty uapi/ headers to prevent the patch program from deleting them. A question: Is this the right way to deal with the now-empty Kbuild files? The ones under include/ are unlikely to be used - even for generated files, I think - so getting rid of them is probably okay. Once all the bits are in, we can probably remove all the Kbuild files under include/ that aren't also under include/uapi/.

Place comments in: arch/mips/include/asm/Kbuild arch/tile/include/arch/Kbuild to make them non-empty so that the patch program doesn't remove them when it reduces them to nothing. Possibly they should be just deleted, but it's possible that they'll acquire generic-y or genhdr-y lines in future, so I'm keeping them around for the moment. Note that MIPS will compile happily if the file is deleted instead. I haven't tested TILE, but I suspect it will be the same there.

Remove non-UAPI Kbuild files that have become empty as a result of UAPI disintegration. They used to have only header-y lines in them and those have now moved to the Kbuild files in the corresponding uapi/ directories. Possibly these should not be removed but rather have a comment inserted to say they are intentionally left blank. This would make it easier to add generated header lines in future without having to restore the infrastructure. Note that at this point not all the UAPI disintegration parts have been merged, so it is likely that more empty Kbuild files will turn up. It is probably necessary to make the files non-empty to prevent the patch program from automatically deleting them when it reduces them to nothing. Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com>

uapi/linux/irqnr.h was emitted by the UAPI disintegration script as an empty file because the parent linux/irqnr.h had no UAPI stuff in it, despite being marked with "header-y". Unfortunately, the patch program deletes the empty file when applying a kernel patch. It's not clear why this file is part of the UAPI at all. Looking in: /usr/include/linux/irqnr.h there's nothing there but a header reinclusion guard and a comment. So just stick a comment in there as a placeholder. Without this, if the kernel is fabricated from, say, a tarball and a patch, you can get this error when building x86_64 or usermode Linux (and probably others): include/linux/irqnr.h:4:30: fatal error: uapi/linux/irqnr.h: No such file or directory Reported-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> Reported-by: Alessandro Suardi <alessandro.suardi@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David Howells <dhowells@redhat.com> cc: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net> cc: Alessandro Suardi <alessandro.suardi@gmail.com>

Torsten Luettgert bisected TEE regression starting with commit f8126f1d (ipv4: Adjust semantics of rt->rt_gateway.) The problem is that it tries to ARP-lookup the original destination address of the forwarded packet, not the address of the gateway. Fix this using FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH Julian added in commit c92b9655 (ipv4: Add FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH), so that known nexthop (info->gw.ip) has preference on resolving.
