Currently, buffers holding individual queue statistics are allocated when the device is opened. If an ibmvnic interface is hotplugged or initialized but never opened, an attempt to get statistics with ethtool will result in a kernel panic. Since the driver allocates a constant number, the maximum supported queues, of buffers, these can be allocated during device probe and freed when the device is hot-unplugged or the module is removed.

Sorry, the previous change introduced a race condition between transmit completion processing and tracking TX descriptors. If a completion is received before the number of descriptors is logged, the number of descriptors will be add but not removed. After enough times, this could halt the transmit queue forever. Log the number of descriptors used by a transmit before sending. I stress tested the fix on two different systems running over the weekend without any issues.

The approach of one counter to rule them all when tracking the number of active sub-crqs, pools, and napi has problems handling some failover scenarios. This is due to the split in initializing the sub crqs, pools and napi in different places and the placement of updating the active counts. This patch simplifies this by having a counter for tx and rx sub-crqs, pools, and napi. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In order to handle the number of rx sub crqs changing during a driver reset, the ibmvnic driver also needs to update the number of napi.

When the driver resets it is possible that the number of tx/rx sub-crqs can change. This patch handles this so that the driver does not try to access non-existent sub-crqs. The count for releasing sub crqs depends on the adapter state. The active queue count is not set in probe, so if we are relasing in probe state we use the request queue count. Additionally, a parameter is added to release_sub_crqs() so that we know if the h_call to free the sub-crq needs to be made. In the reset path we have to do a reset of the main crq, which is a free followed by a register of the main crq. The free of main crq results in all of the sub crq's being free'ed. When updating sub-crq count in the reset path we do not want to h_free the sub-crqs, they are already free'ed. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Rename the tx/rx active pool variables to be tx/rx active scrq counts. The tx/rx pools are per sub-crq so this is a more appropriate name.

During device bringup, the driver exchanges login buffers with firmware. These buffers contain information such number of TX and RX queues alloted to the device, RX buffer size, etc. These buffers weren't being properly freed on device reset or close. We can free the buffer we send to firmware as soon as we get a response. There is information in the response buffer that the driver needs for normal operation so retain it until the next reset or removal.

When allocating RX or TX buffer pools, the driver needs to provide a unique mapping ID to firmware for each pool. This value is assigned using a counter which is incremented after a new pool is created. The ID can be an integer ranging from 1-255. When migrating to a device that requests a different number of queues, this value was not being reset properly. As a result, after enough migrations, the counter exceeded the upper bound and pool creation failed. This is fixed by resetting the counter to one in this case.

While handling a driver reset we get a H_CLOSED return trying to send a CRQ event. When this occurs we need to queue up another reset attempt.

At some point, a check was added to exit the polling routine during resets.

Wait for a response from the VNIC server before exiting after setting the MAC address. The resolves an issue with bonding a VNIC client in ALB or TLB modes. The bonding driver was changing the MAC address more rapidly than the device could respond, causing the following errors. "bond0: the hw address of slave eth2 is in use by the bond; couldn't find a slave with a free hw address to give it (this should not have happened)" If the function waits until the change is finalized, these errors are avoided.

In reset events in which our memory allocations need to be reallocated, VPD data is being freed, but never reallocated. This can cause issues if we later attempt to access that memory or reset and attempt to free the memory. This patch moves the allocation of the VPD data to init_resources so that it will be symmetrically freed during release resources.

If we request an unsupported mtu value, the vnic server will suggest a different value. Currently we take the suggested value without question and login with that value. However, the behavior doesn't seem completely sane as attempting to change the mtu to some specific value will change the mtu to some completely different value most of the time. This patch fixes the issue by logging in with the previously used mtu value and printing an error message saying that the given mtu is unsupported.

Using newer backing devices can cause the required padding at the end of buffer as well as the number of queues to change after a failover. Since we currently assume that these values never change, after a failover to a backing device with different capabilities, we can get errors from the vnic server, attempt to free long term buffers that are no longer there, or not free long term buffers that should be freed. This patch resolves the issue by checking whether any of these values change, and if so perform the necessary re-allocations.

Due to architecture limitations, the IBM VNIC client driver is unable to perform MAC address changes unless the device has "logged in" to its backing device. Currently, pending MAC changes are handled before login, resulting in an error and failure to change the MAC address. Moving that chunk to the end of the ibmvnic_login function, when we are sure that it was successful, fixes that. The MAC address can be changed when the device is up or down, so only check if the device is in a "PROBED" state before setting the MAC address.
