Dump and reset doesn't work unless cmpxchg64() is used both from packet and control plane paths. This approach is going to be slow though. Instead, use a percpu seqcount to fetch counters consistently, then subtract bytes and packets in case a reset was requested. The cpu that running over the reset code is guaranteed to own this stats exclusively, we have to turn counters into signed 64bit though so stats update on reset don't get wrong on underflow. This patch is based on original sketch from Eric Dumazet.

The sync_cmos_clock function in kernel/time/ntp.c first tries to update the internal clock of the cpu by calling the "update_persistent_clock64" architecture specific function. If this returns -ENODEV, it then tries to update an external RTC using "rtc_set_ntp_time". On the mips architecture, the weak implementation of the underlying function would return 0 if it wasn't overridden. This meant that the sync_cmos_clock function would never try to update an external RTC (if both CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE and CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC are configured) Returning -ENODEV instead, means that an external RTC will be tried.

Instead of having individual PHY drivers set the SUPPORTED_Pause and SUPPORTED_Asym_Pause flags, phylib itself should set those flags, unless there is a hardware erratum or other special case. During autonegotiation, the PHYs will determine whether to enable pause frame support. Pause frames are a feature that is supported by the MAC. It is the MAC that generates the frames and that processes them. The PHY can only be configured to allow them to pass through. This commit also effectively reverts the recently applied c7a61319 ("net: phy: dp83848: Support ethernet pause frames"). So the new process is: 1) Unless the PHY driver overrides it, phylib sets the SUPPORTED_Pause and SUPPORTED_AsymPause bits in phydev->supported. This indicates that the PHY supports pause frames. 2) The MAC driver checks phydev->supported before it calls phy_start(). If (SUPPORTED_Pause | SUPPORTED_AsymPause) is set, then the MAC driver sets those bits in phydev->advertising, if it wants to enable pause frame support. 3) When the link state changes, the MAC driver checks phydev->pause and phydev->asym_pause, If the bits are set, then it enables the corresponding features in the MAC. The algorithm is: if (phydev->pause) The MAC should be programmed to receive and honor pause frames it receives, i.e. enable receive flow control. if (phydev->pause != phydev->asym_pause) The MAC should be programmed to transmit pause frames when needed, i.e. enable transmit flow control.

The driver uses a private lock for synchronization of the xmit function and the xmit completion handler, but since the NETIF_F_LLTX flag is not set, the xmit function is also called with the xmit_lock held. On the other hand the completion handler uses the reverse locking order by first taking the private lock and (in case that the tx queue had been stopped) then the xmit_lock. Improve the locking by removing the private lock and using only the xmit_lock for synchronization instead. Signed-off-by: Lino Sanfilippo <LinoSanfilippo@gmx.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

Vivien Didelot says: ==================== net: bridge: fast ageing on topology change 802.1D [1] specifies that the bridges in a network must use a short value to age out dynamic entries in the Filtering Database for a period, once a topology change has been communicated by the root bridge. This patchset fixes this for the in-kernel STP implementation. Once the topology change flag is set in a net_bridge instance, the ageing time value is shorten to twice the forward delay used by the topology. When the topology change flag is cleared, the ageing time configured for the bridge is restored. To accomplish that, a new bridge_ageing_time member is added to the net_bridge structure, to store the user configured bridge ageing time. Two helpers are added to offload the ageing time and set the topology change flag in the net_bridge instance. Then the required logic is added in the topology change helper if in-kernel STP is used. This has been tested on the following topology: +--------------+ | root bridge | | 1 2 3 4 | +--+--+--+--+--+ | | | | +--------+ | | | +------| laptop | | | | +--------+ +--+--+--+-----+ | 1 2 3 | | slave bridge | +--------------+ When unplugging/replugging the laptop, the slave bridge (under test) gets the topology change flag sent by the root bridge, and fast ageing is triggered on the bridges. Once the topology change timer of the root bridge expires, the topology change flag is cleared and the configured ageing time is restored on the bridges. A similar test has been done between two bridges under test. When changing the forward delay of the root bridge with: # echo 3000 > /sys/class/net/br0/bridge/forward_delay the ageing time correctly changes on both bridges from 300s to 60s while the TOPOLOGY_CHANGE flag is present.

This patch is based on an earlier one submitted by Jon Maxwell with the following commit message: "We recently encountered a bug where a few customers using ibmveth on the same LPAR hit an issue where a TCP session hung when large receive was enabled. Closer analysis revealed that the session was stuck because the one side was advertising a zero window repeatedly. We narrowed this down to the fact the ibmveth driver did not set gso_size which is translated by TCP into the MSS later up the stack. The MSS is used to calculate the TCP window size and as that was abnormally large, it was calculating a zero window, even although the sockets receive buffer was completely empty." We rely on the Virtual I/O Server partition in a pseries environment to provide the MSS through the TCP header checksum field. The stipulation is that users should not disable checksum offloading if rx packet aggregation is enabled through VIOS. Some firmware offerings provide the MSS in the RX buffer. This is signalled by a bit in the RX queue descriptor.

In flood situations, keeping sk_rmem_alloc at a high value prevents producers from touching the socket. It makes sense to lower sk_rmem_alloc only at the end of udp_rmem_release() after the thread draining receive queue in udp_recvmsg() finished the writes to sk_forward_alloc.

Eric Dumazet authored
If udp_recvmsg() constantly releases sk_rmem_alloc for every read packet, it gives opportunity for producers to immediately grab spinlocks and desperatly try adding another packet, causing false sharing. We can add a simple heuristic to give the signal by batches of ~25 % of the queue capacity. This patch considerably increases performance under flood by about 50 %, since the thread draining the queue is no longer slowed by false sharing.
