John W. Linville says: ==================== This probably is the last big pull request for wireless bits for 3.9. Of course, I'm sure there will be a few stragglers here and there...surely a few bug fixes as well... :-) (In fact, I see that Johannes has already queued-up a few more for me while I was preparing this...) Included are a number of pulls... For mac80211-next, Johannes says: "The biggest change I have is undoubtedly Marco's mesh powersave implementation. Beyond that, I have a patch from Emmanuel to modify the DTIM period API in mac80211, scan improvements and a removal of some previous workaround code from Stanislaw, dynamic short slot time from Thomas and 64-bit station byte counters from Vladimir. I also made a number of changes myself, some related to WoWLAN, some auth/deauth improvements and most of them BSS list cleanups." "This time, I have relatively large number of fixes in various areas of the code (a memory leak in regulatory, an RX race in mac80211, the new radar checking caused a P2P device problem, some mesh issues with stations, an older bug in tracing and for kernel-doc) as well as a number of small new features. The biggest (in the diffstat) is my work on hidden SSID tracking." "Please pull to get * radar detection work from Simon * mesh improvements from Thomas * a connection monitoring/powersave fix from Wojciech * TDLS-related station management work from Jouni * VLAN crypto fixes from Michael Braun * CCK support in minstrel_ht from Felix * an SMPS (not SMSP, oops) related improvement in mac80211 (Emmanuel) * some WoWLAN work from Amitkumar Karwar: pattern match offset and a documentation fix * some WoWLAN work from myself (TCP connection wakeup feature API) * and a lot of VHT (and some HT) work (also from myself) And a number of more random cleanups/fixes. I merged mac80211/master to avoid a merge problem there." And regarding iwlwifi-next, Johannes says: "We continue work on our new driver, but I also have a WoWLAN and AP mode improvement for the previous driver and a change to use threaded interrupts to prepare us for working with non-PCIe devices." Regarding wl12xx, Luca says: "A few more patches intended for 3.9. Mostly some clean-ups I've been doing to make it easier to support device-tree. Also including one bug fix for wl12xx where the rates we advertise were wrong and an update in the wlconf structure to support newer firmwares." For the nfc-next bits, Samuel says: "This is the second NFC pull request for 3.9. We have: - A few pn533 fixes on top of Waldemar refactorization of the driver, one of them fixes target mode. - A new driver for Inside Secure microread chipset. It supports two physical layers: i2c and MEI. The MEI one depends on a patchset that's been sent to Greg Kroah-Hartman for inclusion into the 3.9 kernel [1]. The dependency is a KConfig one which means this code is not buildable as long as the MEI API is not usptream." "This 3rd NFC pull request for 3.9 contains a fix for the microread MEI physical layer support, as the MEI bus API changed. From the MEI code, we now pass the MEI id back to the driver probe routine, and we also pass a name and a MEI id table through the mei_bus_driver structure. A few renames as well like e.g. mei_bus_driver to mei_driver or mei_bus_client to mei_device in order to be closer to the driver model practices." For the ath6kl bits, Kalle says: "There's not anything special here, most of the patches are just code cleanup. The only functional changes are using the beacon interval from user space and fixing a crash which happens when inserting and removing the module in a loop." Also, I pulled the wireless tree in order to resolve some pending merge issues. On top of that, there is a bunch of work on brcmfmac that leads up to P2P support. Also, mwifiex, rtlwifi, and a variety of other drivers see some basic cleanups and minor enhancements. Please let me know if there are problems! ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Upper case macros for various chip attributes are slightly difficult to read and are a bit out of characterto the other tg3_<foo> attribute functions. Convert: GET_ASIC_REV(tp->pci_chip_rev_id) -> tg3_asic_rev(tp) GET_CHIP_REV(tp->pci_chip_rev_id) -> tg3_chip_rev(tp) Remove: GET_METAL_REV(tp->pci_chip_rev_id) -> tg3_metal_rev(tp) (unused) Add: tg3_chip_rev_id(tp) for tp->pci_chip_rev_id so access styles are similar to tg3_asic_rev and tg3_chip_rev. These macros are not converted to static inline functions because gcc (tested with 4.7.2) is currently unable to optimize the object code it produces the same way and code is otherwise larger.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to e1000, e1000e, igb, igbvf and ixgbe. The e1000, e1000e, igb and igbvf are single patch changes and the remaining 11 patches are all against ixgbe. The e1000 patch is a comment cleanup to align e1000 with the code commenting style for /drivers/net. It also contains a few other white space cleanups (i.e. fix lines over 80 char, remove unnecessary blank lines and fix the use of tabs/spaces). The e1000e patch from Koki (Fujitsu) adds a warning when link speed is downgraded due to SmartSpeed. The igb patch from Stefan (Red Hat) increases the timeout in the ethtool offline self-test because some i350 adapters would sometimes fail the self-test because link auto negotiation may take longer than the current 4 second timeout. The igbvf patch from Alex is meant to address several race issues that become possible because next_to_watch could possibly be set to a value that shows that the descriptor is done when it is not. In order to correct that we instead make next_to_watch a pointer that is set to NULL during cleanup, and set to the eop_desc after the descriptor rings have been written. The remaining patches for ixgbe are a mix of fixes and added support as well as some cleanup. Most notably is the added support for displaying the number of Tx/Rx channels via ethtool by Alex. Also Aurélien adds the ability for reading data from SFP+ modules over i2c for diagnostic monitoring. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Recent changes have made it so that MAX_SKB_FRAGS is now never less than 16. As a result we were seeing issues on systems with 64K pages as it would cause DESC_NEEDED to increase to 68, and we would need over 136 descriptors free before clean_tx_irq would wake the queue. This patch makes it so that DESC_NEEDED is always MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 4. This should prevent any possible deadlocks on the systems with 64K pages as we will now only require 42 descriptors to wake.

This change adds support for the ethtool set_channels operation. Since the ixgbe driver has to support DCB as well as the other modes the assumption I made here is that the number of channels in DCB modes refers to the number of queues per traffic class, not the number of queues total.

This change updates the ixgbe driver to use __netdev_pick_tx instead of the current logic it is using to select a queue. The main result of this change is that ixgbe can now fully support XPS, and in the case of non-FCoE enabled configs it means we don't need to have our own ndo_select_queue.

Instead of adjusting the FCoE and Flow director limits based on the number of CPUs we can define them much sooner. This allows the user to come through later and adjust them once we have updated the code to support the set_channels ethtool operation. I am still allowing for FCoE and RSS queues to be separated if the number queues is less than the number of CPUs. This essentially treats the two groupings like they are two separate traffic classes. In addition I am changing the initialization to use the MAX_TX/RX_QUEUES defines instead of trying to compute the value as it will be possible in upcoming patches for the user to request the maximum number of queues. I have also updated things so that the upper limit on queues is exactly 63 instead of allowing it to go up to 64. The reason for this change is to address the fact thqt the driver only supports up to 63 queue vectors since the hardware supports 64 MSI-X vectors, but one must be reserved for "other" causes.

In order to correct that we instead make next_to_watch a pointer that is set to NULL during cleanup, and set to the eop_desc after the descriptor rings have been written. To enforce proper ordering the next_to_watch pointer is not set until after a wmb writing the values to the last descriptor in a transmit. In order to guarantee that the descriptor is not read until after the eop_desc we use the read_barrier_depends which is only really necessary on the alpha architecture.

Ying Xue authored
Change overload control to be purely byte-based, using sk->sk_rmem_alloc as byte counter, and compare it to a calculated upper limit for the socket receive queue. For all connection messages, irrespective of message importance, the overload limit is set to a constant value (i.e, 67MB). This limit should normally never be reached because of the lower limit used by the flow control algorithm, and is there only as a last resort in case a faulty peer doesn't respect the send window limit. For datagram messages, message importance is taken into account when calculating the overload limit. The calculation is based on sk->sk_rcvbuf, and is hence configurable via the socket option SO_RCVBUF.
