Newer devices supported by igb can support auto-crossover detection in forced operation modes. Enable this in the driver, rather than clobbering this functionality in forced operation.

Hw timestamping code caused performance regression in ixgbe driver when the timestamping is not enabled. The culprit is IXGBE_READ_REG call in the Rx path which is executed for every received skb. This call is not needed when the timestamping is disabled or for non-ptp packets. netperf results: The ixgbe side of the connection was acting as a server, the netperf command line on the other side was: netperf -H 192.168.1.23 -T0,0 -t UDP_STREAM -l 20 The values below mean throughput as reported by netperf (local/remote), for 3 runs, with timestamping not enabled. 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP off: 5373.83 / 3329.32 5721.88 / 3033.89 5653.42 / 3112.38 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP on: 5233.64 / 1226.85 5448.67 / 1039.32 5421.36 / 1095.66 Patched 3.7.0-rc1+ with CONFIG_IXGBE_PTP on: 5594.72 / 2942.53 5428.95 / 3110.16 5343.56 / 3200.48 Reported-by: Jesper Brouer <jbrouer@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Jiri Benc <jbenc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek <gospo@redhat.com> Tested-by: Phil Schmitt <phillip.j.schmitt@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

This change makes it so that compare the total_rx_packets cleaned to budget instead of decrementing budget. The advantage to this approach is that budget can now be const and we only end up modifying total_rx_packets instead of modifying both it and budget.

John Fastabend authored
In SR-IOV mode the PF driver acts as the uplink port and is used to send control packets e.g. lldpad, stp, etc. eth0.1 eth0.2 eth0 VF VF PF | | | <-- stand-in for uplink | | | -------------------------- | Embedded Switch | -------------------------- | MAC <-- uplink But the embedded switch is setup to forward multicast addresses to all interfaces both VFs and PF and onto the physical link. This results in reserved MAC addresses used by control protocols to be forwarded over the switch onto the VF. In the LLDP case the PF sends an LLDPDU and it is currently being forwarded to all the VFs who then see the PF as a peer. This is incorrect. This patch adds the multicast addresses to the RAR table in the hardware to prevent this behavior.

The function to set the macvlan filter should return success or failure instead of the index of the filter. The message processing function was misinterpreting the index as a non-zero return code indicating failure and NACKing MAC filter set messages that actually succeeded.

Calling the ixgbe_reset_pipeline_82599 function will ensure a full pipeline reset on all 82599 devices. This is necessary to avoid possible link issues.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following changeset contains updates for IPVS from Jesper Dangaard Brouer that did not reach the previous merge window in time. More specifically, updates to improve IPv6 support in IPVS. More relevantly, some of the existing code performed wrong handling of the extensions headers and better fragmentation handling. Jesper promised more follow-up patches to refine this after this batch hits net-next. Yet to come. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The cgroup logic part of net_cls is very similar as the one in net_prio. Let's stream line the net_cls logic with the net_prio one. The net_prio update logic was changed by following commit (note there were some changes necessary later on) commit 406a3c63 Author: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Date: Fri Jul 20 10:39:25 2012 +0000 net: netprio_cgroup: rework update socket logic Instead of updating the sk_cgrp_prioidx struct field on every send this only updates the field when a task is moved via cgroup infrastructure. This allows sockets that may be used by a kernel worker thread to be managed. For example in the iscsi case today a user can put iscsid in a netprio cgroup and control traffic will be sent with the correct sk_cgrp_prioidx value set but as soon as data is sent the kernel worker thread isssues a send and sk_cgrp_prioidx is updated with the kernel worker threads value which is the default case. It seems more correct to only update the field when the user explicitly sets it via control group infrastructure. This allows the users to manage sockets that may be used with other threads. Since classid is now updated when the task is moved between the cgroups, we don't have to call sock_update_classid() from various places to ensure we always using the latest classid value.

sock_update_classid() assumes that the update operation always are applied on the current task. sock_update_classid() needs to know on which tasks to work on in order to be able to migrate task between cgroups using the struct cgroup_subsys attach() callback.
