      Uwe Kleine-König authored
      Up to now w5100_remove() returns zero unconditionally. Make it return
      void instead which makes it easier to see in the callers that there is
      no error to handle.
      
      Also the return value of platform and spi remove callbacks is ignored
      anyway.

      Merge branch 'remove-qdisc-running-counter' · f8ba22a1
      David S. Miller authored
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior says:
      
      ====================
      Try to simplify the gnet_stats and remove qdisc->running sequence counter.
      
      The first few patches is a follow up to
          https://lore.kernel.org/all/20211007175000.2334713-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de/
      
      The remaining patches (#5+) remove the seqcount_t (Qdisc::running) from
      the Qdisc. The statistics (Qdisc::bstats and Qdisc::cpu_bstats) use
      u64_stats_t and the "running state" is now represented by a bit in
      Qdisc::state.
      
      By removing the seqcount_t from Qdisc and decoupling the bstats
      statistics from the seqcount_t it is possible to query the statistics
      even if the Qdisc is running instead of waiting until it is idle again.
      
      The try-lock like usage of the seqcount_t in qdisc_run_begin() is
      problematic on PREEMPT_RT. Inside the qdisc_run_begin/end() qdisc->running
      sequence counter write sections, at sch_direct_xmit(), the seqcount write
      serialization lock is released then re-acquired. This is fine for !RT, because
      the writer is in a BH disabled region and there is a no in-IRQ reader. For RT
      though, BH sections are preemptible. The earlier introduced seqcount_LOCKNAME_t
      mechanism, which for RT the reader acquires then relesaes the write
      serailization lock to avoid infinite spinning if it preempts a seqcount write
      section, cannot work: the qdisc->running write serialization lock is already
      intermittingly released inside the seqcount write section.

      net: sched: Remove Qdisc::running sequence counter · 29cbcd85
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      The Qdisc::running sequence counter has two uses:
      
        1. Reliably reading qdisc's tc statistics while the qdisc is running
           (a seqcount read/retry loop at gnet_stats_add_basic()).
      
        2. As a flag, indicating whether the qdisc in question is running
           (without any retry loops).
      
      For the first usage, the Qdisc::running sequence counter write section,
      qdisc_run_begin() => qdisc_run_end(), covers a much wider area than what
      is actually needed: the raw qdisc's bstats update. A u64_stats sync
      point was thus introduced (in previous commits) inside the bstats
      structure itself. A local u64_stats write section is then started and
      stopped for the bstats updates.
      
      Use that u64_stats sync point mechanism for the bstats read/retry loop
      at gnet_stats_add_basic().
      
      For the second qdisc->running usage, a __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit flag,
      accessed with atomic bitops, is sufficient. Using a bit flag instead of
      a sequence counter at qdisc_run_begin/end() and qdisc_is_running() leads
      to the SMP barriers implicitly added through raw_read_seqcount() and
      write_seqcount_begin/end() getting removed. All call sites have been
      surveyed though, and no required ordering was identified.
      
      Now that the qdisc->running sequence counter is no longer used, remove
      it.
      
      Note, using u64_stats implies no sequence counter protection for 64-bit
      architectures. This can lead to the qdisc tc statistics "packets" vs.
      "bytes" values getting out of sync on rare occasions. The individual
      values will still be valid.

      net: sched: Merge Qdisc::bstats and Qdisc::cpu_bstats data types · 50dc9a85
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      The only factor differentiating per-CPU bstats data type (struct
      gnet_stats_basic_cpu) from the packed non-per-CPU one (struct
      gnet_stats_basic_packed) was a u64_stats sync point inside the former.
      The two data types are now equivalent: earlier commits added a u64_stats
      sync point to the latter.
      
      Combine both data types into "struct gnet_stats_basic_sync". This
      eliminates redundancy and simplifies the bstats read/write APIs.
      
      Use u64_stats_t for bstats "packets" and "bytes" data types. On 64-bit
      architectures, u64_stats sync points do not use sequence counter
      protection.

      net: sched: Use _bstats_update/set() instead of raw writes · f56940da
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      The Qdisc::running sequence counter, used to protect Qdisc::bstats reads
      from parallel writes, is in the process of being removed. Qdisc::bstats
      read/writes will synchronize using an internal u64_stats sync point
      instead.
      
      Modify all bstats writes to use _bstats_update(). This ensures that
      the internal u64_stats sync point is always acquired and released as
      appropriate.

      net: sched: Protect Qdisc::bstats with u64_stats · 67c9e627
      Ahmed S. Darwish authored
      The not-per-CPU variant of qdisc tc (traffic control) statistics,
      Qdisc::gnet_stats_basic_packed bstats, is protected with Qdisc::running
      sequence counter.
      
      This sequence counter is used for reliably protecting bstats reads from
      parallel writes. Meanwhile, the seqcount's write section covers a much
      wider area than bstats update: qdisc_run_begin() => qdisc_run_end().
      
      That read/write section asymmetry can lead to needless retries of the
      read section. To prepare for removing the Qdisc::running sequence
      counter altogether, introduce a u64_stats sync point inside bstats
      instead.
      
      Modify _bstats_update() to start/end the bstats u64_stats write
      section.
      
      For bisectability, and finer commits granularity, the bstats read
      section is still protected with a Qdisc::running read/retry loop and
      qdisc_run_begin/end() still starts/ends that seqcount write section.
      Once all call sites are modified to use _bstats_update(), the
      Qdisc::running seqcount will be removed and bstats read/retry loop will
      be modified to utilize the internal u64_stats sync point.
      
      Note, using u64_stats implies no sequence counter protection for 64-bit
      architectures. This can lead to the statistics "packets" vs. "bytes"
      values getting out of sync on rare occasions. The individual values will
      still be valid.

      gen_stats: Move remaining users to gnet_stats_add_queue(). · 10940eb7
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
      The gnet_stats_queue::qlen member is only used in the SMP-case.
      
      qdisc_qstats_qlen_backlog() needs to add qdisc_qlen() to qstats.qlen to
      have the same value as that provided by qdisc_qlen_sum().
      
      gnet_stats_copy_queue() needs to overwritte the resulting qstats.qlen
      field whith the caller submitted qlen value. It might be differ from the
      submitted value.
      
      Let both functions use gnet_stats_add_queue() and remove unused
      __gnet_stats_copy_queue().

      mq, mqprio: Use gnet_stats_add_queue(). · 7361df46
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
      gnet_stats_add_basic() and gnet_stats_add_queue() add up the statistics
      so they can be used directly for both the per-CPU and global case.
      
      gnet_stats_add_queue() copies either Qdisc's per-CPU
      gnet_stats_queue::qlen or the global member. The global
      gnet_stats_queue::qlen isn't touched in the per-CPU case so there is no
      need to consider it in the global-case.
      
      In the per-CPU case, the sum of global gnet_stats_queue::qlen and
      the per-CPU gnet_stats_queue::qlen was assigned to sch->q.qlen and
      sch->qstats.qlen. Now both fields are copied individually.

      gen_stats: Add instead Set the value in __gnet_stats_copy_basic(). · fbf307c8
      Sebastian Andrzej Siewior authored
      __gnet_stats_copy_basic() always assigns the value to the bstats
      argument overwriting the previous value. The later added per-CPU version
      always accumulated the values in the returning gnet_stats_basic_packed
      argument.
      
      Based on review there are five users of that function as of today:
      - est_fetch_counters(), ___gnet_stats_copy_basic()
        memsets() bstats to zero, single invocation.
      
      - mq_dump(), mqprio_dump(), mqprio_dump_class_stats()
        memsets() bstats to zero, multiple invocation but does not use the
        function due to !qdisc_is_percpu_stats().
      
      Add the values in __gnet_stats_copy_basic() instead overwriting. Rename
      the function to gnet_stats_add_basic() to make it more obvious.
