This helps know how many times the interface had to flush and replay FD filter table, which gives an indication on how often we are getting FD table full situation. Also check on certain pf states before proceeding to add or delete filters since we can't add or delete filters if we are in those states.

Instead of disabling ATR when we get a programming error, we now will wait it out to see if some room gets created by ATR rule deletion. If we still have too many errors and ATR filter count did not change much, its time to flush and replay. We no more auto-disable ATR when we have errors in programming. The disabling of ATR when we get programming error was buggy and was still adding new rules and causing continuous errors. With this policy change we flush instead when we see too many errors. ATR is still disabled if we add a SB rule for TCP/IPv4 flow type, more logic is added to re-enable it once all SB TCP/IPv4 rules are gone.

Change the message that gets printed when adding/deleting a filter to the SB, so that user can tell if a filter was added or deleted. Print filter add failures only in case of SB filters. For ATR the information is not useful to the user and hence suppress it unless in higher debug mode. Change-ID: I78d7a7a6ecfa82a38a582b0d7b4da038355e3735 Signed-off-by:

This patch changes the wording of the flow director add/remove and asynchronous failure messages to include fd_id to try and add some way to track the operations on a given fd_id. Its not perfect, but its better than what we had as PCTYPE can apply to several different filter requests. This patch also removes a redundant message when filter addition fails due to full condition. Change-ID: Icf58b0603d4f162d9fc542f11a74866a907049f2 Signed-off-by:

When one tries to add eth as a port into team and that eth is already in use by other rx_handler device (macvlan, bond, bridge, ...) a bug in team_port_add() causes that IFF_TEAM_PORT flag is set before rx_handler is registered. In between, netdev nofifier is called and team_device_event() sees IFF_TEAM_PORT and thinks that rx_handler_data pointer is set to team_port. But it isn't. Fix this by reordering rx_handler register and IFF_TEAM_PORT priv flag set so it is very similar to how bonding does this. Reported-by:

Yuval Mintz says: ==================== bnx2x: `fixes' patch-series This series contains mostly bug fixes, but never the less is intended for `net-next' and not `net', as: - Some of the fixes are quite insignificant [`VF clean statistics', `ethtool -d might cause timeout in log']. - Some only recently were submitted to `net-next' [`Fix timesync endianity']. - Some are not usually compiled as part of the kernel [`Fix stop-on-error']. Dave - please consider applying this series to `net-next'; If you prefer, I can break this series into 2 parts [one for `net' and the other for `net-next'] - but personally I don't see much benefit in it. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

This introduces 2 new relaxations in the bnx2x driver regarding GRO: 1. Don't prevent SW GRO if HW GRO is disabled. 2. If all aggregations are disabled, when GRO configuration changes there's no need to perform an inner-reload [since it will have no actual effect].

David S. Miller authored
As reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer, for high packet rates the overhead of having another indirect call in the TX path is non-trivial. There is the indirect call itself, and then there is all of the reloading of the state to refetch the tail pointer value and then write the device register. Move to a more passive scheme, which requires very light modifications to the device drivers. The signal is a new skb->xmit_more value, if it is non-zero it means that more SKBs are pending to be transmitted on the same queue as the current SKB. And therefore, the driver may elide the tail pointer update. Right now skb->xmit_more is always zero. Signed-off-by: -

Amir Vadai says: ==================== Make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules I'm re-spinning this patchset. At the begining it was suggested to use a different name for the parameter, but at the end [3] the resolution was to leave it as it is in this patch. Drivers need to know if running from kdump kernel in order to change their memory profile - since kdump environment is limited by available memory. Currently there are drivers that are using reset_devices as suggested in [2]. In [2] it was suggested to use reset_devices, but the context was, to enable driver to know when the hardware device is needed to be reset, and not if this is a kdump environment. We think that is_kdump_kernel() is better suited to select between different memory profiles. The first patch in this patchset exports a needed symbol in order to make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from the drivers. The rest of the patches change from reset_devices to is_kdump_kernel() in 2 networking drivers. The idea of this patchset was suggested by Vivek Goyal. Tested (only build) and applied on top of commit 8fc54f68: ("net: use reciprocal_scale() helper") [1] - ea1c1af1: ("net/mlx4_en: Reduce memory consumption on kdump kernel") [2] - https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/27/341 [3] - http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg291492.html ==================== Signed-off-by:

In order to make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules, need to make elfcorehdr_addr exported. This was rejected in the past [1] because reset_devices was prefered in that context (reseting the device in kdump kernel), but now there are some network drivers that need to reduce memory usage when loaded from a kdump kernel. And in that context, is_kdump_kernel() suits better. [1] - https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/27/341 CC: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

Basic deferred TX queue flushing infrastructure. Over time, and specifically and more recently at the Networking Workshop during Kernel SUmmit in Chicago, we have discussed the idea of having some way to optimize transmits of multiple TX packets at a time. There are several areas of overhead that could be amortized with such schemes. One has to do with locking and transactional overhead, the other has to do with device specific costs. This patch set here is more aimed at device specific costs. Typically a device queues up a packet in the TX queue and then has to do something to have the device start processing that new entry. Sometimes this is composed of doing an MMIO write to a "tail" register, and in other cases it can involve something as expensive as a hypervisor call. The basic setup defined here is that when the driver supports deferred TX queue flushing, ndo_start_xmit should no longer perform that operation. Instead a new operation, ndo_xmit_flush, should do it. I have converted IGB and virtio_net as example initial users. The IGB conversion is tested, virtio_net is not but it does compile :-) All ndo_start_xmit call sites have been abstracted behind a new helper called netdev_start_xmit(). This just adds the infrastructure, it does not actually add any instances of actually doing multiple ndo_start_xmit calls per ndo_xmit_flush invocation. Signed-off-by: -

This patch addresses a couple of minor items, mostly addesssing prandom_bytes(): 1) prandom_bytes{,_state}() should use size_t for length arguments, 2) We can use put_unaligned() when filling the array instead of open coding it [ perhaps some archs will further benefit from their own arch specific implementation when GCC cannot make up for it ], 3) Fix a typo, 4) Better use unsigned int as type for getting the arch seed, 5) Make use of prandom_u32_max() for timer slack. Regarding the change to put_unaligned(), callers of prandom_bytes() which internally invoke prandom_bytes_state(), don't bother as they expect the array to be filled randomly and don't have any control of the internal state what-so-ever (that's also why we have periodic reseeding there, etc), so they really don't care. Now for the direct callers of prandom_bytes_state(), which are solely located in test cases for MTD devices, that is, drivers/mtd/tests/{oobtest.c,pagetest.c,subpagetest.c}: These tests basically fill a test write-vector through prandom_bytes_state() with an a-priori defined seed each time and write that to a MTD device. Later on, they set up a read-vector and read back that blocks from the device. So in the verification phase, the write-vector is being re-setup [ so same seed and prandom_bytes_state() called ], and then memcmp()'ed against the read-vector to check if the data is the same. Akinobu, Lothar and I also tested this patch and it runs through the 3 relevant MTD test cases w/o any errors on the nandsim device (simulator for MTD devs) for x86_64, ppc64, ARM (i.MX28, i.MX53 and i.MX6): # modprobe nandsim first_id_byte=0x20 second_id_byte=0xac \ third_id_byte=0x00 fourth_id_byte=0x15 # modprobe mtd_oobtest dev=0 # modprobe mtd_pagetest dev=0 # modprobe mtd_subpagetest dev=0 We also don't have any users depending directly on a particular result of the PRNG (except the PRNG self-test itself), and that's just fine as it e.g. allowed us easily to do things like upgrading from taus88 to taus113.

Goals of this effort are: - Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY - Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers - Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet - Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible - Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init) - Simplify code What is in this fifth patch set: - Added GRO checksum validation functions - Call the GRO validations functions from TCP and GRE gro_receive - Perform checksum verification in the UDP gro_receive path using GRO functions and add support for gro_receive in UDP6 Changes in V2: - Change ip_summed to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY instead of moving it to CHECKSUM_COMPLETE from GRO checksum validation.
