      bridge: memorize and export selected IGMP/MLD querier port · 2cd41431
      Linus Lüssing authored
      Adding bridge support to the batman-adv multicast optimization requires
      batman-adv knowing about the existence of bridged-in IGMP/MLD queriers
      to be able to reliably serve any multicast listener behind this same
      bridge.

      bridge: add export of multicast database adjacent to net_dev · 07f8ac4a
      Linus Lüssing authored
      With this new, exported function br_multicast_list_adjacent(net_dev) a
      list of IPv4/6 addresses is returned. This list contains all multicast
      addresses sensed by the bridge multicast snooping feature on all bridge
      ports of the bridge interface of net_dev, excluding addresses from the
      specified net_device itself.
      
      Adding bridge support to the batman-adv multicast optimization requires
      batman-adv knowing about the existence of bridged-in multicast
      listeners to be able to reliably serve them with multicast packets.

      bridge: adhere to querier election mechanism specified by RFCs · dc4eb53a
      Linus Lüssing authored
      MLDv1 (RFC2710 section 6), MLDv2 (RFC3810 section 7.6.2), IGMPv2
      (RFC2236 section 3) and IGMPv3 (RFC3376 section 6.6.2) specify that the
      querier with lowest source address shall become the selected
      querier.
      
      So far the bridge stopped its querier as soon as it heard another
      querier regardless of its source address. This results in the "wrong"
      querier potentially becoming the active querier or a potential,
      unnecessary querying delay.
      
      With this patch the bridge memorizes the source address of the currently
      selected querier and ignores queries from queriers with a higher source
      address than the currently selected one. This slight optimization is
      supposed to make it more RFC compliant (but is rather uncritical and
      therefore probably not necessary to be queued for stable kernels).

      bridge: rename struct bridge_mcast_query/querier · 90010b36
      Linus Lüssing authored
      The current naming of these two structs is very random, in that
      reversing their naming would not make any semantical difference.
      
      This patch tries to make the naming less confusing by giving them a more
      specific, distinguishable naming.
      
      This is also useful for the upcoming patches reintroducing the
      "struct bridge_mcast_querier" but for storing information about the
      selected querier (no matter if our own or a foreign querier).

      iw_cxgb4: don't truncate the recv window size · b408ff28
      Hariprasad Shenai authored
      Fixed a bug that shows up with recv window sizes that exceed the size of
      the RCV_BUFSIZ field in opt0 (>= 1024K).  If the recv window exceeds
      this, then we specify the max possible in opt0, add add the rest in via
      a RX_DATA_ACK credits.

      iw_cxgb4: Choose appropriate hw mtu index and ISS for iWARP connections · 92e7ae71
      Hariprasad Shenai authored
      Select the appropriate hw mtu index and initial sequence number to optimize
      hw memory performance.
      
      Add new cxgb4_best_aligned_mtu() which allows callers to provide enough
      information to be used to [possibly] select an MTU which will result in the
      TCP Data Segment Size (AKA Maximum Segment Size) to be an aligned value.
      
      If an RTR message exhange is required, then align the ISS to 8B - 1 + 4, so
      that after the SYN the send seqno will align on a 4B boundary. The RTR
      message exchange will leave the send seqno aligned on an 8B boundary.
      If an RTR is not required, then align the ISS to 8B - 1.  The goal is
      to have the send seqno be 8B aligned when we send the first FPDU.

      iw_cxgb4: Allocate and use IQs specifically for indirect interrupts · cf38be6d
      Hariprasad Shenai authored
      Currently indirect interrupts for RDMA CQs funnel through the LLD's RDMA
      RXQs, which also handle direct interrupts for offload CPLs during RDMA
      connection setup/teardown.  The intended T4 usage model, however, is to
      have indirect interrupts flow through dedicated IQs. IE not to mix
      indirect interrupts with CPL messages in an IQ.  This patch adds the
      concept of RDMA concentrator IQs, or CIQs, setup and maintained by the
      LLD and exported to iw_cxgb4 for use when creating CQs. RDMA CPLs will
      flow through the LLD's RDMA RXQs, and CQ interrupts flow through the
      CIQs.
      
      Design:
      
      cxgb4 creates and exports an array of CIQs for the RDMA ULD.  These IQs
      are sized according to the max available CQs available at adapter init.
      In addition, these IQs don't need FL buffers since they only service
      indirect interrupts.  One CIQ is setup per RX channel similar to the
      RDMA RXQs.
      
      iw_cxgb4 will utilize these CIQs based on the vector value passed into
      create_cq().  The num_comp_vectors advertised by iw_cxgb4 will be the
      number of CIQs configured, and thus the vector value will be the index
      into the array of CIQs.

      ====================
      Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-06-09
      
      This series contains more updates to i40e and i40evf.
      
      Shannon adds checks for error status bits on the admin event queue and
      provides notification if seen.  Cleans up unused variable and memory
      allocation which was used earlier in driver development and is no longer
      needed.  Also fixes the driver to not complain about removing
      non-existent MAC addresses.  Bumps the driver versions for both i40e
      and i40evf.
      
      Catherine fixes a function header comment to make sure the comment correctly
      reflects the function name.
      
      Mitch adds code to allow for additional VSIs since the number of VSIs that
      the firmware reports to us is a guaranteed minimum, not an absolute
      maximum.  The hardware actually supports for more than the reported value,
      which we often need.  Implements anti-spoofing for VFs for both MAC
      addresses and VLANs, as well as enable this feature by default for all VFs.
      
      Anjali changes the interrupt distribution policy to change the way
      resources for special features are handled.  Fixes the driver to not fall
      back to one queue if the only feature enabled is ATR, since FD_SB
      and FD_ATR need to be checked independently in order to decide if we
      will support multiple queue or not.  Allows the RSS table entry range
      and GPS to be any number, not necessarily a power of 2 because hardware
      does not restrict us to use a power of 2 GPS in the case of RSS as long as
      we are not sharing the RSS table with another VSI (VMDq).
      
      Frank modifies the driver to keep SR-IOV enabled in the case that RSS,
      VMFq, FD_SB and DCB are disabled so that SR-IOV does not get turned off
      unnecessarily.
      
      Jesse fixes a bug in receive checksum where the driver was not marking
      packets with bad checksums correctly, especially IPv6 packets with a bad
      checksum.  To do this correctly, we need a define that may be set by
      hardware in rare cases.
      
      Greg fixes the driver to delete all the old and stale MAC filters for the
      VF VSI when the host administrator changes the VF MAC address from under
      its feet.
