The code used to call napi_disable() in an interrupt handler (from smp_call_function), which in turn could call msleep(). Unfortunately you can't sleep in an interrupt context. Luckily it turns out all the NAPI support functions are just operating on data structures and not on any deeply per-cpu data, so we can arrange to set up and tear down all the NAPI state on the core driving the process, and just do the IRQ enable/disable as a smp_call_function thing.

This change allows the user to configure various features of the tile networking drivers on and off. There is no change to the default initialization state of either the tilegx or tilepro drivers. Neither driver needs the ndo_fix_features or ndo_set_features callbacks, since the generic code already handles the dependencies for fix_features, and there is no hardware state to tweak in set_features.

David suggested to add a BUG_ON() to catch if some layer sets skb->sk pointer without a corresponding destructor. As skb can sit in a queue, it's mandatory to make sure the socket cannot disappear, and it's usually done by taking a reference on the socket, then releasing it from the skb destructor. This patch is a follow-up to commit c34a7612 ("net: skb_orphan() changes") and will be reverted after catching all possible offenders if any.

With the addition of the suppress operation (7764a45a ("fib_rules: add .suppress operation") we rely on accurate error reporting of the fib_rules.actions. fib6_rule_action always returned -EAGAIN in case we could not find a matching route and 0 if a rule was matched. This also included a match for blackhole or prohibited rule actions which could get suppressed by the new logic. So adapt fib6_rule_action to always return the correct error code as its counterpart fib4_rule_action does. This also fixes a possiblity of nullptr-deref where we don't find a table, thus rt == NULL. Because the condition rt != ip6_null_entry still holdes it seems we could later get a nullptr bug on dereference rt->dst. v2: a) Fixed a brain fart in the commit msg (the rule => a table, etc). No changes to the patch.

The content is meant to capture specific items that are unique to netdev workflow, and not re-document generic linux expectations that are already captured elsewhere.

Stefan Tomanek authored
This change adds a new operation to the fib_rules_ops struct; it allows the suppression of routing decisions if certain criteria are not met by its results. The first implemented constraint is a minimum prefix length added to the structures of routing rules. If a rule is added with a minimum prefix length >0, only routes meeting this threshold will be considered. Any other (more general) routing table entries will be ignored. When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it is often convinient to reference the main routing table multiple times - but omitting the default route. Using this patch and a modified "ip" utility, this can be achieved by using the following command sequence: $ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1 $ ip rule add pref 100 table main prefixlength 1 $ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can be found. By using a minimal prefixlength of 1, the default route (/0) of the table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule 100; packets traveling to destinations with more specific routing entries are processed as usual.

Commit 547669d4 ("tcp: xps: fix reordering issues") added unexpected reorders in case netem is used in a MQ setup for high performance test bed. ETH=eth0 tc qd del dev $ETH root 2>/dev/null tc qd add dev $ETH root handle 1: mq for i in `seq 1 32` do tc qd add dev $ETH parent 1:$i netem delay 100ms done As all tcp packets are orphaned by netem, TCP stack believes it can set skb->ooo_okay on all packets. In order to allow producers to send more packets, we want to keep sk_wmem_alloc from reaching sk_sndbuf limit. We can do that by accounting one byte per skb in netem queues, so that TCP stack is not fooled too much.

Current net name space has only one genid for both IPv4 and IPv6, it has below drawbacks: - Add/delete an IPv4 address will invalidate all IPv6 routing table entries. - Insert/remove XFRM policy will also invalidate both IPv4/IPv6 routing table entries even when the policy is only applied for one address family. Thus, this patch attempt to split one genid for two to cater for IPv4 and IPv6 separately in a fine granularity.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to ixgbe and pci. The first patch for ixgbe from Greg Rose is the second submission. The first submission of "ixgbe: Retain VLAN filtering in promiscuous + VT mode" had a typo, which Joe Perches pointed out and is fixed in this submission. Alex updates the ixgbe driver to use the generic helper pci_vfs_assigned instead of the driver specific function ixgbe_vfs_are_assigned. Don Skidmore provides 4 patches for ixgbe, the first being a fix for flow control ethtool reporting. Originally ixgbe_device_supports_autoneg_fc() was expected to be called by only copper devices, which lead to false information being displayed via ethtool. Two other patches add support for fixed fiber for SFP+ devices and the addition of a quad-port x520 adapter. The last patch simply bumps the driver version. Emil Tantilov provides 3 fixes for ixgbe, two of which resolve semaphore lock issues. The third fix resolves several issues in the previous implementation of the SFF data dumps of SFP+ modules. The remaining ixgbe and pci patches are from Jacob Keller. The pci patches exposes bus speed, link speed and bus width so that drivers can take advantage of this information. In addition, adds a pci function which obtains minimum link width and speed. Jacob also provides the ixgbe patch to incorporate the pci function. He provides a patch that fixes a lockdep issue created due to ixgbe_ptp_stop always running cancel_work_sync even if the work item had not been created properly with INIT_WORK. This issue was found and reported by Stephen Hemminger. -v2- * fix patch 3 to be a bool function based on David Miller's feedback * fix patch 4 debug message based on David Miller's feedback * fix patch 8 moved the extern declarations to pci.h based on Bjorn Helgaas's feedback * fix patch 11 update the error message to include encoding loss based * fix patch 8/9/10 title based on Bjorn's feedback ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch changes the error code path in ixgbe_acquire_swfw_sync() to deal with cases where acquiring SW semaphore times out. In cases where the SW/FW semaphore bits were set (i.e. due to a crash) the driver will hang on load.

This patch fixes a lockdep issue created due to ixgbe_ptp_stop always running cancel_work_sync even if the work item had not been created properly with INIT_WORK. This is caused because ixgbe_ptp_stop did not check to actually ensure PTP was running first. The new implementation introduces a state in the &adapter->state field which is used to indicate that PTP is running. (This replaces the IXGBE_FLAG2_PTP_ENABLED field). This state will use the atomic set_bit, test_bit, and test_and_clear_bit functions. ixgbe_ptp_stop will check to ensure that PTP was enabled, (and if not, it will not attempt to do any cleanup work from ixgbe_ptp_init).

This check supersedes the original method which only checked the current pci device.

A PCI Express device can potentially report a link width and speed which it will not properly fulfill due to being plugged into a slower link higher in the chain. This function walks up the PCI bus chain and calculates the minimum link width and speed of this entire chain. This can be useful to enable a device to determine if it has enough bandwidth for optimum functionality.

ixgbe_read/write_i2c_phy_82598() does not hold the SWFW_SYNC semaphore for the entire function. Instead the lock is held only during the phy.ops.read/write_reg operations. As result when the function is being called simultaneously the I2C read/writes can be corrupted. The following patch introduces the SWFW_SYNC semaphore for the entire ixgbe_read/write_i2c_phy_82598() function. To accomplish this I had to create 2 separate functions: ixgbe_read_phy_reg_mdi() ixgbe_write_phy_reg_mdi() Those functions are identical to ixgbe_read/write_phy_reg_generic() sans the locking, and can be used in ixgbe_read/write_i2c_phy_82598() with the SWFW_SYNC semaphore being held.
