The mvpp2_txq_pend_desc_num_get() function only selects a TX queue, and reads the number of pending descriptors. It is used in only one place, in mvpp2_txq_clean(), where the TX queue has already been selected by a write to MVPP2_TXQ_NUM_REG. Therefore, this function is useless, and the caller can simply read the value of the MVPP2_TXQ_PENDING_REG register instead.

The "buffer header" functionality is a functionality used by the hardware to split an incoming packets over multiple BM buffers if they are not large enough. However, the mvpp2 driver guarantees that a pool of BM buffers has buffers with a size large enough to store MTU-sized packets. Therefore, this functionality is completely unused, and the code can be removed, and we should never get a descriptor with bit MVPP2_RXD_BUF_HDR set.

As indicated by Russell King, the mvpp2 driver currently uses a lot "phys" or "phys_addr" to store what really is a DMA address. This commit clarifies this by using "dma" or "dma_addr" where appropriate. This is especially important as we are going to introduce more changes where the distinction between physical address and DMA address will be key.

The Marvell PPv2 Device Tree binding was so far only used to describe the PPv2.1 network controller, used in the Marvell Armada 375. A new version of this IP block, PPv2.2 is used in the Marvell Armada 7K/8K processor. This commit extends the existing binding so that it can also be used to describe PPv2.2 hardware.

Eric Dumazet says: ==================== mlx4: order-0 allocations and page recycling As mentioned half a year ago, we better switch mlx4 driver to order-0 allocations and page recycling. This reduces vulnerability surface thanks to better skb->truesize tracking and provides better performance in most cases. (33 Gbit for one TCP flow on my lab hosts) I will provide for linux-4.13 a patch on top of this series, trying to improve data locality as described in https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg422258.html v2 provides an ethtool -S new counter (rx_alloc_pages) and code factorization, plus Tariq fix. v3 includes various fixes based on Tariq tests and feedback from Saeed and Tariq. v4 rebased on net-next for inclusion in linux-4.12, as requested by Tariq. Worth noting this patch series deletes ~250 lines of code ;) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

We should keep one way to build skbs, regardless of GRO being on or off. Note that I made sure to defer as much as possible the point we need to pull data from the frame, so that future prefetch() we might add are more effective. These skb attributes derive from the CQE or ring : ip_summed, csum hash vlan offload hwtstamps queue_mapping As a bonus, this patch removes mlx4 dependency on eth_get_headlen() which is very often broken enough to give us headaches.

Testing a boolean in fast path is not worth duplicating the code allocating packets, when GRO is on or off. If this proves to be a problem, we might later use a jump label.

Same technique than some Intel drivers, for arches where PAGE_SIZE = 4096 In most cases, pages are reused because they were consumed before we could loop around the RX ring. This brings back performance, and is even better, a single TCP flow reaches 30Gbit on my hosts. v2: added full memset() in mlx4_en_free_frag(), as Tariq found it was needed if we switch to large MTU, as priv->log_rx_info can dynamically be changed.

Use of order-3 pages is problematic in some cases. This patch might add three kinds of regression : 1) a CPU performance regression, but we will add later page recycling and performance should be back. 2) TCP receiver could grow its receive window slightly slower, because skb->len/skb->truesize ratio will decrease. This is mostly ok, we prefer being conservative to not risk OOM, and eventually tune TCP better in the future. This is consistent with other drivers using 2048 per ethernet frame. 3) Because we allocate one page per RX slot, we consume more memory for the ring buffers. XDP already had this constraint anyway.

We will soon use order-0 pages, and frag truesize will more precisely match real sizes. In the new model, we prefer to use <= 2048 bytes fragments, so that we can use page-recycle technique on PAGE_SIZE=4096 arches. We will still pack as much frames as possible on arches with big pages, like PowerPC.

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== flow dissector improvements This patchset follows-up the discussion about future extensions of flow dissector and tries to address the mentioned concerns. Some parts are cut out into sub-functions. Also, the processing of the code (ARP, MPLS) is made dependent on user actually requiring the bisected values.

Now, when an unexpected element in the GRE header appears, we break so the l4 ports are processed. But since the ports are processed unconditionally, there will be certainly random values dissected.
