Valid values for InterruptThrottleRate are 10-100000, or one of 0, 1, 3, 4. '2' is not valid. This is a legacy from the branching from the e1000 driver code that e1000e was based from. Prior to this patch, if the e1000e driver was loaded with a forced invalid InterruptThrottleRate of '2', then no throttle rate would be set and no error message generated. Now, a message will be generated that an invalid value was used and the value for InterruptThrottleRate will be set to the default value.

ULP is a power saving feature that reduces the power consumption of the PHY when a cable is not connected. ULP is gated on the following conditions: 1) The hardware must support ULP. Currently this is only I218 devices from Intel 2) ULP is initiated by the driver, so, no driver results in no ULP. 3) ULP's implementation utilizes Runtime Power Management to toggle its execution. ULP is enabled/disabled based on the state of Runtime PM. 4) ULP is not active when wake-on-unicast, multicast or broadcast is active as these features are mutually-exclusive. Since the PHY is in an unavailable state while ULP is active, any access of the PHY registers will fail. This is resolved by utilizing kernel calls that cause the device to exit Runtime PM (e.g. pm_runtime_get_sync) and then, after PHY access is complete, allow the device to resume Runtime PM (e.g. pm_runtime_put_sync). Under certain conditions, toggling the LANPHYPC is necessary to disable ULP mode. Break out existing code to toggle LANPHYPC to a new function to avoid code duplication.

Refactor the system power management flows to prevent the suspend path from being executed twice when hibernating since both the freeze and poweroff callbacks were set to e1000_suspend() via SET_SYSTEM_SLEEP_PM_OPS. There are HW workarounds that are performed during this flow and calling them twice was causing erroneous behavior. Re-arrange the code to take advantage of common code paths and explicitly set the individual dev_pm_ops callbacks for suspend, resume, freeze, thaw, poweroff and restore. Add a boolean parameter (reset) to the e1000e_down function to allow for cases when the HW should not be reset when downed during a PM event. Now that all suspend/shutdown paths result in a call to __e1000_shutdown() that checks Wake on Lan status, removing redundant check for WoL in e1000_power_down_phy().

On a ME enabled system with the cable out, the driver init flow would generate an erroneous message indicating that resets were being blocked by an active ME session. Cause was ME clearing the semaphore bit to block further PHY resets for up to 50 msec during power-on/cycle. After this interval, ME would re-set the bit and allow PHY resets. To resolve this, change the flow of e1000e_phy_hw_reset_generic() to utilize a delay and retry method. Poll the FWSM register to minimize any extra time added to the flow. If the delay times out at 100ms (checked in 10msec increments), then return the value E1000_BLK_PHY_RESET, as this is the accurate state of the PHY. Attempting to alter just the call to e1000e_phy_hw_reset_generic() in e1000_init_phy_workarounds_pchlan() just caused the problem to move further down the flow.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Most notable are: Joseph completes the implementation of the ethtool ntuple rule management interface by adding the get, update and delete interface reset. Akeem provides a fix to prevent a possible overflow due to multiplication of number and size by using kzalloc, so use kcalloc. Jesse provides an implementation for skb_set_hash() and adds the L4 type return when we know it is an L4 hash. He also adds a counter to statistics for Tx timeouts to help users. Lastly he provides a change to stay away from the cache line where the done bit may be getting written back for the transmit ring since the hardware may be writing the whole cache line for a partial update. Shannon cleans up code comments. Anjali removes a firmware workaround for newer firmware since the number of MSIx vectors are being reported correctly. v2: - dropped patch 01 of the series based on feedback from the author Joe Perches and Shannon Nelson. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

David Howells says: ==================== net-next: AF_RXRPC fixes and development Here are some AF_RXRPC fixes: (1) Fix to remove incorrect checksum calculation made during recvmsg(). It's unnecessary to try to do this there since we check the checksum before reading the RxRPC header from the packet. (2) Fix to prevent the sending of an ABORT packet in response to another ABORT packet and inducing a storm. (3) Fix UDP MTU calculation from parsing ICMP_FRAG_NEEDED packets where we don't handle the ICMP packet not specifying an MTU size. And development patches: (4) Add sysctls for configuring RxRPC parameters, specifically various delays pertaining to ACK generation, the time before we resend a packet for which we don't receive an ACK, the maximum time a call is permitted to live and the amount of time transport, connection and dead call information is cached. (5) Improve ACK packet production by adjusting the handling of ACK_REQUESTED packets, ignoring the MORE_PACKETS flag, delaying the production of otherwise immediate ACK_IDLE packets and delaying all ACK_IDLE production (barring the call termination) to half a second. (6) Add more sysctl parameters to expose the Rx window size, the maximum packet size that we're willing to receive and the number of jumbo rxrpc packets we're willing to handle in a single UDP packet. (7) Request ACKs on alternate DATA packets so that the other side doesn't wait till we fill up the Tx window. (8) Use a RCU hash table to look up the rxrpc_call for an incoming packet rather than stepping through a hierarchy involving several spinlocks. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Zoltan Kiss says: ==================== xen-netback: TX grant mapping with SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY instead of copy A long known problem of the upstream netback implementation that on the TX path (from guest to Dom0) it copies the whole packet from guest memory into Dom0. That simply became a bottleneck with 10Gb NICs, and generally it's a huge perfomance penalty. The classic kernel version of netback used grant mapping, and to get notified when the page can be unmapped, it used page destructors. Unfortunately that destructor is not an upstreamable solution. Ian Campbell's skb fragment destructor patch series [1] tried to solve this problem, however it seems to be very invasive on the network stack's code, and therefore haven't progressed very well. This patch series use SKBTX_DEV_ZEROCOPY flags to tell the stack it needs to know when the skb is freed up. That is the way KVM solved the same problem, and based on my initial tests it can do the same for us. Avoiding the extra copy boosted up TX throughput from 6.8 Gbps to 7.9 (I used a slower AMD Interlagos box, both Dom0 and guest on upstream kernel, on the same NUMA node, running iperf 2.0.5, and the remote end was a bare metal box on the same 10Gb switch) Based on my investigations the packet get only copied if it is delivered to Dom0 IP stack through deliver_skb, which is due to this [2] patch. This affects DomU->Dom0 IP traffic and when Dom0 does routing/NAT for the guest. That's a bit unfortunate, but luckily it doesn't cause a major regression for this usecase. In the future we should try to eliminate that copy somehow. There are a few spinoff tasks which will be addressed in separate patches: - grant copy the header directly instead of map and memcpy. This should help us avoiding TLB flushing - use something else than ballooned pages - fix grant map to use page->index properly I've tried to broke it down to smaller patches, with mixed results, so I welcome suggestions on that part as well: 1: Use skb->cb to store pending_idx 2: Some refactoring 3: Change RX path for mapped SKB fragments (moved here to keep bisectability, review it after #4) 4: Introduce TX grant mapping 5: Remove old TX grant copy definitons and fix indentations 6: Add stat counters for zerocopy 7: Handle guests with too many frags 8: Timeout packets in RX path 9: Aggregate TX unmap operations v2: I've fixed some smaller things, see the individual patches. I've added a few new stat counters, and handling the important use case when an older guest sends lots of slots. Instead of delayed copy now we timeout packets on the RX path, based on the assumption that otherwise packets should get stucked anywhere else. Finally some unmap batching to avoid too much TLB flush v3: Apart from fixing a few things mentioned in responses the important change is the use the hypercall directly for grant [un]mapping, therefore we can avoid m2p override. v4: Now we are using a new grant mapping API to avoid m2p_override. The RX queue timeout logic changed also. v5: Only minor fixes based on Wei's comments v6: Important bugfixes for xenvif_poll exit path and zerocopy callback, see first 2 patches. Also rework of handling packets with too many slots, and reorder the series a bit. v7: Small fixes in comments/log messages/error paths, and merging the frag overflow stats patch into its parent.

Unmapping causes TLB flushing, therefore we should make it in the largest possible batches. However we shouldn't starve the guest for too long. So if the guest has space for at least two big packets and we don't have at least a quarter ring to unmap, delay it for at most 1 milisec.

A malicious or buggy guest can leave its queue filled indefinitely, in which case qdisc start to queue packets for that VIF. If those packets came from an another guest, it can block its slots and prevent shutdown. To avoid that, we make sure the queue is drained in every 10 seconds. The QDisc queue in worst case takes 3 round to flush usually. Signed-off-by: Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Xen network protocol had implicit dependency on MAX_SKB_FRAGS. Netback has to handle guests sending up to XEN_NETBK_LEGACY_SLOTS_MAX slots. To achieve that: - create a new skb - map the leftover slots to its frags (no linear buffer here!) - chain it to the previous through skb_shinfo(skb)->frag_list - map them - copy and coalesce the frags into a brand new one and send it to the stack - unmap the 2 old skb's pages It's also introduces new stat counters, which help determine how often the guest sends a packet with more than MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags. NOTE: if bisect brought you here, you should apply the series up until "xen-netback: Timeout packets in RX path", otherwise malicious guests can block other guests by not releasing their sent packets.

These counters help determine how often the buffers had to be copied. Also they help find out if packets are leaked, as if "sent != success + fail", there are probably packets never freed up properly.

This patch introduces grant mapping on netback TX path. It replaces grant copy operations, ditching grant copy coalescing along the way. Another solution for copy coalescing is introduced in "xen-netback: Handle guests with too many frags", older guests and Windows can broke before that patch applies. There is a callback (xenvif_zerocopy_callback) from core stack to release the slots back to the guests when kfree_skb or skb_orphan_frags called. It feeds a separate dealloc thread, as scheduling NAPI instance from there is inefficient, therefore we can't do dealloc from the instance.

RX path need to know if the SKB fragments are stored on pages from another domain. Logically this patch should be after introducing the grant mapping itself, as it makes sense only after that.

Storing the pending_idx at the first byte of the linear buffer never looked good, skb->cb is a more proper place for this. It also prevents the header to be directly grant copied there, and we don't have the pending_idx after we copied the header here, so it's time to change it. It also introduces helpers for the RX side Signed-off-by: Zoltan Kiss <zoltan.kiss@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
