The conversion to avoid using pci_alloc_consistent() broke the firmware load process, as well as added an order-4 kmalloc and doubled the memory usage of the firmware image. Go back to loading a page at a time. Also, since the user can now give us utter garbage for firmware, do a cursory validation so we don't try to load just anything. Signed-off-by:

Remove skb_orphan call from igb driver as it can cause multiple issues due to the fact that it is calling the desctructor and removing the skb from the socket prior to transmission. The call was added to improve performance but did so by allowing the skb to be removed from the socket which gave the socket more window space to transmit. The performance gain is not worth the extra problems that this kind of workaround can introduce as this could lead to a potential DoS if a UDP stream decided to monopolize the transmit path.

Allow the device to give the driver RX data with reorder information. When that is done, the device will indicate the driver if a packet has to be held in a (sorted) queue. It will also tell the driver when held packets have to be released to the OS. This is done to improve the WiMAX-protocol level retransmission support when missing frames are detected. The code docs provide details about the implementation. In general, this just hooks into the RX path in rx.c; if a packet with the reorder bit in the RX header is detected, the reorder information in the header is extracted and one of the four main reorder operations are executed. In one case (queue) no packet will be delivered to the networking stack, just queued, whereas in the others (reset, update_ws and queue_update_ws), queued packet might be delivered depending on the window start for the specific queue. The modifications to files other than rx.c are: - control.c: during device initialization, enable reordering support if the rx_reorder_disabled module parameter is not enabled - driver.c: expose a rx_reorder_disable module parameter and call i2400m_rx_setup/release() to initialize/shutdown RX reorder support. - i2400m.h: introduce members in 'struct i2400m' needed for implementing reorder support. - linux/i2400m.h: introduce TLVs, commands and constant definitions related to RX reorder Last but not least, the rx reorder code includes an small circular log where the last N reorder operations are recorded to be displayed in case of inconsistency. Otherwise diagnosing issues would be almost impossible. Signed-off-by:

Newer i2400m firmwares (>= v1.4) extend the data RX protocol so that each packet has a 16 byte header. This header is mainly used to implement host reordeing (which is addressed in later commits). However, this header also allows us to overwrite it (once data has been extracted) with an Ethernet header and deliver to the networking stack without having to reallocate the skb (as it happened in fw <= v1.3) to make room for it. - control.c: indicate the device [dev_initialize()] that the driver wants to use the extended data RX protocol. Also involves adding the definition of the needed data types in include/linux/wimax/i2400m.h. - rx.c: handle the new payload type for the extended RX data protocol. Prepares the skb for delivery to netdev.c:i2400m_net_erx(). - netdev.c: Introduce i2400m_net_erx() that adds the fake ethernet address to a prepared skb and delivers it to the networking stack. - cleanup: in most instances in rx.c, the variable 'single' was renamed to 'single_last' for it better conveys its meaning.

For power saving reasons, WiMAX links can be put in idle mode while connected after a certain time of the link not being used for tx or rx. In this mode, the device pages the base-station regularly and when data is ready to be transmitted, the link is revived. This patch allows the user to control the time the device has to be idle before it decides to go to idle mode from a sysfs interace. It also updates the initialization code to acknowledge the module variable 'idle_mode_disabled' when the firmware is a newer version (upcoming 1.4 vs 2.6.29's v1.3). The method for setting the idle mode timeout in the older firmwares is much more limited and can be only done at initialization time. Thus, the sysfs file will return -ENOSYS on older ones.

Upcoming modifications will need to test for the running firmware version before activating a feature or not. This is helpful to implement backward compatibility with older firmware versions. Modify i2400m_firmware_check() to encode in i2400m->fw_version the major and minor version numbers of the firmware interface. As well, move the call to be done as the very first operation once we have communication with the device during probe() [in __i2400m_dev_start()]. This is needed so any operation that is executed afterwards can determine which fw version it is talking to. Signed-off-by:

Firmware interface version 8.x.x has long been deprecated and is no longer supported (nor available, as it is a preproduction firmware), so it can be safely dropped. Add support for firmware interface v9.2.x (current is 9.1.x). Firmware version 9.2.x is backwards compatible with 9.1.x; new features are enabled if switches are pressed to turn them on. Forthcoming commits to the driver will start pressing those switches when the firmware interface supports it. Signed-off-by:

In order to support backwards compatibility with older firmwares when a driver is updated by a new kernel release, the i2400m bus drivers can declare a list of firmware files they can work with (in general these will be each a different version). The firmware loader will try them in sequence until one loads. Thus, if a user doesn't have the latest and greatest firmware that a newly installed kernel would require, the driver would fall back to the firmware from a previous release. To support this, the i2400m->bus_fw_name is changed to be a NULL terminated array firmware file names (and renamed to bus_fw_names) and we add a new entry (i2400m->fw_name) that points to the name of the firmware being currently used. All code that needs to print the firmware file name uses i2400m->fw_name instead of the old i2400m->bus_fw_name. The code in i2400m_dev_bootstrap() that loads the firmware is changed with an iterator over the firmware file name list that tries to load each form user space, using the first one that succeeds in request_firmware() (and thus stopping the iteration). The USB and SDIO bus drivers are updated to take advantage of this and reflect which firmwares they support. Signed-off-by:

This fixes a problem caused by the overlap of the connection-setup and established-state phases of DCCP connections. During connection setup, the client retransmits Confirm Feature-Negotiation options until a response from the server signals that it can move from the half-established PARTOPEN into the OPEN state, whereupon the connection is fully established on both ends (RFC 4340, 8.1.5). However, since the client may already send data while it is in the PARTOPEN state, consequences arise for the Maximum Packet Size: the problem is that the initial option overhead is much higher than for the subsequent established phase, as it involves potentially many variable-length list-type options (server-priority options, RFC 4340, 6.4). Applying the standard MPS is insufficient here: especially with larger payloads this can lead to annoying, counter-intuitive EMSGSIZE errors. On the other hand, reducing the MPS available for the established phase by the added initial overhead is highly wasteful and inefficient. The solution chosen therefore is a two-phase strategy: If the payload length of the DataAck in PARTOPEN is too large, an Ack is sent to carry the options, and the feature-negotiation list is then flushed. This means that the server gets two Acks for one Response. If both Acks get lost, it is probably better to restart the connection anyway and devising yet another special-case does not seem worth the extra complexity. The result is a higher utilisation of the available packet space for the data transmission phase (established state) of a connection. The patch (over-)estimates the initial overhead to be 32*4 bytes -- commonly seen values were around 90 bytes for initial feature-negotiation options. It uses sizeof(u32) to mean "aligned units of 4 bytes". For consistency, another use of 4-byte alignment is adapted. Signed-off-by:

This patch resolves a long-standing FIXME to dynamically update the Maximum Packet Size depending on actual options usage. It uses the flags set by the feature-negotiation infrastructure to compute the required header option size. Most options are fixed-size, a notable exception are Ack Vectors (required currently only by CCID-2). These can have any length between 3 and 1020 bytes. As a result of testing, 16 bytes (2 bytes for type/length plus 14 Ack Vector cells) have been found to be sufficient for loss-free situations. There are currently no CCID-specific header options which may appear on data packets, thus it is not necessary to define a corresponding CCID field as suggested in the old comment. Further changes: ---------------- Adjusted the type of 'cur_mps' to match the unsigned return type of the function. Signed-off-by:

I guess these fields were one day 16-bit in the struct but nowadays they're just using 8 bits anyway. This is just a precaution, didn't result any change in my case but who knows what all those varying gcc versions & options do. I've been told that 16-bit is not so nice with some cpus. Signed-off-by:
