This is important patch for new devices that support unaligned addressing. That devices suffer from the backward-compatibility bug in DMA engine. In theory we should be able to use old mechanism, but in practice DMA address seems to be randomly copied into status register when hardware reaches end of a ring. This breaks reading slot number from status register and we can't use DMA anymore. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Without this patch it is impossible to read et_swtype, because the 1 byte space is needed for the terminating null byte. The max expected value is 0xF, so now it should be possible to read decimal form ("15") and hex form ("0xF").

Some devices (BCM4749, BCM5357, BCM53572) have internal switch that requires initialization. We already have code for this, but because of the typo in code it was never working. This resulted in network not working for some routers and possibility of soft-bricking them. Use correct bit for switch initialization and fix typo in the define.

running bonding in ALB mode requires that learning packets be sent periodically, so that the switch knows where to send responding traffic. However, depending on switch configuration, there may not be any need to send traffic at the default rate of 3 packets per second, which represents little more than wasted data. Allow the ALB learning packet interval to be made configurable via sysfs Signed-off-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Acked-by: Acked-by: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> CC: Jay Vosburgh <fubar@us.ibm.com> CC: Andy Gospodarek <andy@greyhouse.net> CC: "David S.

This patch fixes sparse warnings when incorrectly handling the port number and using int instead of unsigned int iterating through &vn->sock_list[]. Keeping the port as __be16 also makes things clearer wrt endianess. Also, it was pointed out that vxlan_get_rx_port() had unnecessary checks which got removed.

The NULL deref happens when br_handle_frame is called between these 2 lines of del_nbp: dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_BRIDGE_PORT; /* --> br_handle_frame is called at this time */ netdev_rx_handler_unregister(dev); In br_handle_frame the return of br_port_get_rcu(dev) is dereferenced without check but br_port_get_rcu(dev) returns NULL if: !(dev->priv_flags & IFF_BRIDGE_PORT) Eric Dumazet pointed out the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT is not necessary here since we're in rcu_read_lock and we have synchronize_net() in netdev_rx_handler_unregister. So remove the testing of IFF_BRIDGE_PORT and by the previous patch, make sure br_port_get_rcu is called in bridging code.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to ixgbe and e1000e. Jacob provides a ixgbe patch to fix the configure_rx patch to properly disable RSC hardware logic when a user disables it. Previously we only disabled RSC in the queue settings, but this does not fully disable hardware RSC logic which can lead to unexpected performance issues. Emil provides three fixes for ixgbe. First fixes the ethtool loopback test when DCB is enabled, where the frames may be modified on Tx (by adding VLAN tag) which will fail the check on receive. Then a fix for QSFP+ modules, limit the speed setting to advertise only one speed at a time since the QSFP+ modules do not support auto negotiation. Lastly, resolve an issue where the driver will display incorrect info for QSFP+ modules that were inserted after the driver has been loaded. David Ertman provides to fixes for e1000e, one removes a comparison to the boolean value true where evaluating the lvalue will produce the same result. The other fixes an error in the calculation of the rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unkown/undefined register space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in the PHY. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

David Ertman authored
When copying the MAC RAR registers to PHY there is an error in the calculation of the rar_entry_count, which causes a write of unknown/ undefined register space in the MAC to unknown/undefined register space in the PHY. This patch fixes the overrun with writing to the PHY RAR and also fixes the ethtool offline register tests so that the correctly addressed registers have the appropriate bitmasks for R/W and RO bits for affected parts. Shawn Rader gets credit for finding and fixing the register overrun.

This patch resolves an issue where the driver will display incorrect info for Q/SFP+ modules that were inserted after the driver has been loaded. This patch adds a call to identify_phy() in ixgbe_get_settings() prior to calling get_link_capabilities() which needs the PHY data in order to determine the correct settings.

QSFP+ modules do not support auto negotiation and should advertise only one speed at a time. This patch adds logic in ethtool to allow setting and reporting the advertised speed at either 1Gbps or 10Gbps, but not both. Also limits the speed set in ixgbe_sfp_link_config_subtask() to highest supported. Previously the link was set to whatever the supported speeds were.

At some point limits were added to forward_delay. However, the limits are only enforced when STP is enabled. This created a scenario where you could have a value outside the allowed range while STP is disabled, which then stuck around even after STP is enabled. This patch fixes this by clamping the value when we enable STP. I had to move the locking around a bit to ensure that there is no window where someone could insert a value outside the range while we're in the middle of enabling STP.

This changes the message_age_timer calculation to use the BPDU's max age as opposed to the local bridge's max age. This is in accordance with section 8.6.2.3.2 Step 2 of the 802.1D-1998 sprecification. With the current implementation, when running with very large bridge diameters, convergance will not always occur even if a root bridge is configured to have a longer max age. Tested successfully on bridge diameters of ~200. Signed-off-by: Chris Healy <cphealy@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
