Since there is now only one spot that actually uses "fastpath" there isn't much point in carrying it. Instead we can just use a check for skb_cloned to verify if we can perform the fast-path free for the head or not.

The fast-path for pskb_expand_head contains a check where the size plus the unaligned size of skb_shared_info is compared against the size of the data buffer. This code path has two issues. First is the fact that after the recent changes by Eric Dumazet to __alloc_skb and build_skb the shared info is always placed in the optimal spot for a buffer size making this check unnecessary. The second issue is the fact that the check doesn't take into account the aligned size of shared info. As a result the code burns cycles doing a memcpy with nothing actually being shifted.

It appears some networks play bad games with the two bits reserved for ECN. This can trigger false congestion notifications and very slow transferts. Since RFC 3168 (6.1.1) forbids SYN packets to carry CT bits, we can disable TCP ECN negociation if it happens we receive mangled CT bits in the SYN packet.

This change updates the link flow control configuration so that we correctly set the link flow control settings for DCB. Previously we would have to call the fc_enable call 8 times, once for each packet buffer. If we move that logic into the fc_enable call itself we can avoid multiple unnecessary register writes. This change also corrects an issue in which we were only shifting the water marks for 82599 parts by 6 instead of 10. This was resulting in us only using 1/16 of the packet buffer when flow control was enabled.

This change makes it so that ixgbe_fc_autoneg is a void and always sets the current_mode. Previously if the link was down we would return an error, however there is no harm in simply treating a link down case as a case in which autoneg simply failed. This allows us to rely on the return value of the ixgbe_fc_enable call now since there should be no cases where it returns an error that would normally be ignored.

This change reorders the mapping of rings to q_vectors in the case that the number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors. Previously we would allocate the first R/N queues to the first q_vector where R is the number of rings and N is the number of q_vectors. Instead of doing this we can do a better job of interleaving the rings to the CPUs by assigning every Nth ring to the q_vector. The below tables illustrate this change for the R = 16 N = 4 case. Before patch After patch q_vector: 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 3 Rings: 0 4 8 12 0 1 2 3 1 5 9 13 4 5 6 7 3 6 10 14 8 9 10 11 4 7 11 15 12 13 14 15 This should improve the performance for both DCB or ATR when the number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors allocated by the adapter.

This change makes it so that we can track instances of where a packet was dropped due to a packet being received when there are no DMA buffers available in the ring. For some reason this was only being enabled with RSC, however it makes more sense to always have this feature on so that we can track any cases where we might drop a buffer due to an Rx ring being full.

The idea here seems to be to get a 44bit DMA mask working and if this fails it should fallback to a 32bit DMA mask. The dma_mask variable is assigned once to 44bit and never updated. pci_set_dma_mask() and pci_set_consistent_dma_mask() are both implemented as functions so there is no evil macro which might update dma_mask. Looking at the assembly, I see a call to dma_set_mask() followed by dma_supported() and then a jump passed the second dma_set_mask(). The only way to get to second dma_set_mask() call is by an error code in the first one. So I hereby remove the check since it looks superfluous. Please ignore the path if there is black magic involved. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch adds support for a skb_head_is_locked helper function. It is meant to be used any time we are considering transferring the head from skb->head to a paged frag. If the head is locked it means we cannot remove the head from the skb so it must be copied or we must take the skb as a whole.

There is a known issue in the 82577 and 82578 device that can cause a hang in the device hardware during traffic stress; the current workaround in the driver is to disable transmit flow control by default.

While testing the TCP changes I had to fix an issue in order to be able to load and unload the module. The recent patch that added thermal sensor support added a use after free bug on module unload with an 82598 adapter in the system. To resolve the issue I have updated the code so that when we free the info_kobj we set it back to NULL. I suspect there are likely other bugs present, but I will leave that for another patch that can undergo more testing. I am submitting this directly to net-next since this fixes a fairly serious bug that will lock up the ixgbe module until the system is rebooted.

This change cleans up the last bits of tcp_try_coalesce so that we only need one goto which jumps to the end of the function. The idea is to make the code more readable by putting things in a linear order so that we start execution at the top of the function, and end it at the bottom. I also made a slight tweak to the code for handling frags when we are a clone. Instead of making it an if (clone) loop else nr_frags = 0 I changed the logic so that if (!clone) we just set the number of frags to 0 which disables the for loop anyway.

This patch addresses several issues in the way we were tracking the truesize in tcp_try_coalesce. First it was using ksize which prevents us from having a 0 sized head frag and getting a usable result. To resolve that this patch uses the end pointer which is set based off either ksize, or the frag_size supplied in build_skb. This allows us to compute the original truesize of the entire buffer and remove that value leaving us with just what was added as pages. The second issue was the use of skb->len if there is a mergeable head frag. We should only need to remove the size of an data aligned sk_buff from our current skb->truesize to compute the delta for a buffer with a reused head. By using skb->len the value of truesize was being artificially reduced which means that head frags could use more memory than buffers using standard allocations.

This change is meant ot prevent stealing the skb->head to use as a page in the event that the skb->head was cloned. This allows the other clones to track each other via shinfo->dataref. Without this we break down to two methods for tracking the reference count, one being dataref, the other being the page count. As a result it becomes difficult to track how many references there are to skb->head.

Before stealing fragments or skb head, we must make sure skbs are not cloned. Alexander was worried about destination skb being cloned : In bridge setups, a driver could be fooled if skb->data_len would not match skb nr_frags. If source skb is cloned, we must take references on pages instead. Bug happened using tcpdump (if not using mmap()) Introduce kfree_skb_partial() helper to cleanup code.
