calling dma_map_single()/dma_unmap_single() is quite expensive compared to copying a small packet. So let's copy short frames and keep the buffers mapped. We set the limit to 256 bytes which seems to give good results both on the XP-GP board and on the AX3/4. The Rx small packet rate increased by 16.4% doing this, from 486kpps to 573kpps. It is worth noting that even the call to the function dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu() is expensive (300 ns) although less than dma_unmap_single(). Without it, the packet rate raises to 711kpps (+24% more). Thus on systems where coherency from device to CPU is guaranteed by a snoop control unit, this patch should provide even more gains, and probably rx_copybreak could be increased.

Make use of build_skb() to allocate frags on the RX path. When frag size is lower than a page size, we can use netdev_alloc_frag(), and we fall back to kmalloc() for larger sizes. The frag size is stored into the mvneta_port struct. The alloc/free functions check the frag size to decide what alloc/ free method to use. MTU changes are safe because the MTU change function stops the device and clears the queues before applying the change. With this patch, I observed a reproducible 2% performance improvement on HTTP-based benchmarks, and 5% on small packet RX rate.

At several places, we already know the value of the rx status but we call functions which dereference the pointer again to get it and don't need the descriptor for anything else.

Currently, mvneta_txq_bufs_free() calls mvneta_tx_done_policy() with a non-null cause to retrieve the pointer to the next queue to process. There are useless tests on the return queue number and on the pointer, all of which are well defined within a known limited set. This code path is fast, although not critical. Removing 3 tests here that the compiler could not optimize (verified) is always desirable.

Right now the mvneta driver doesn't handle Tx IRQ, and relies on two mechanisms to flush Tx descriptors : a flush at the end of mvneta_tx() and a timer. If a burst of packets is emitted faster than the device can send them, then the queue is stopped until next wake-up of the timer 10ms later. This causes jerky output traffic with bursts and pauses, making it difficult to reach line rate with very few streams. A test on UDP traffic shows that it's not possible to go beyond 134 Mbps / 12 kpps of outgoing traffic with 1500-bytes IP packets. Routed traffic tends to observe pauses as well if the traffic is bursty, making it even burstier after the wake-up. It seems that this feature was inherited from the original driver but nothing there mentions any reason for not using the interrupt instead, which the chip supports. Thus, this patch enables Tx interrupts and removes the timer. It does the two at once because it's not really possible to make the two mechanisms coexist, so a split patch doesn't make sense. First tests performed on a Mirabox (Armada 370) show that less CPU seems to be used when sending traffic. One reason might be that we now call the mvneta_tx_done_gbe() with a mask indicating which queues have been done instead of looping over all of them. The same UDP test above now happily reaches 987 Mbps / 87.7 kpps. Single-stream TCP traffic can now more easily reach line rate. HTTP transfers of 1 MB objects over a single connection went from 730 to 840 Mbps. It is even possible to go significantly higher (>900 Mbps) by tweaking tcp_tso_win_divisor.

Marvell has not published the chip's datasheet yet, so it's very hard to find the relevant bits to manipulate to change the IRQ behaviour. Fortunately, these bits are described in the proprietary LSP patch set which is publicly available here : http://www.plugcomputer.org/downloads/mirabox/ So let's put them back in the driver in order to reduce the burden of current and future maintenance.

Stats writers are mvneta_rx() and mvneta_tx(). They don't lock anything when they update the stats, and as a result, it randomly happens that the stats freeze on SMP if two updates happen during stats retrieval. This is very easily reproducible by starting two HTTP servers and binding each of them to a different CPU, then consulting /proc/net/dev in loops during transfers, the interface should immediately lock up. This issue also randomly happens upon link state changes during transfers, because the stats are collected in this situation, but it takes more attempts to reproduce it. The comments in netdevice.h suggest using per_cpu stats instead to get rid of this issue. This patch implements this. It merges both rx_stats and tx_stats into a single "stats" member with a single syncp. Both mvneta_rx() and mvneta_rx() now only update the a single CPU's counters. In turn, mvneta_get_stats64() does the summing by iterating over all CPUs to get their respective stats. With this change, stats are still correct and no more lockup is encountered. Note that this bug was present since the first import of the mvneta driver. It might make sense to backport it to some stable trees. If so, it depends on "d33dc73 net: mvneta: increase the 64-bit rx/tx stats out of the hot path".

In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we must explicitly initialize any locks. The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize the structure. This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes this worth while. Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with the seqcount lockdep enablement.

This commit fixes a long-standing bug that has been reported by many users: on some Armada 370 platforms, only the network interface that has been used in U-Boot to tftp the kernel works properly in Linux. The other network interfaces can see a 'link up', but are unable to transmit data. The reports were generally made on the Armada 370-based Mirabox, but have also been given on the Armada 370-RD board. The network MAC in the Armada 370/XP (supported by the mvneta driver in Linux) has a functionality that allows it to continuously poll the PHY and directly update the MAC configuration accordingly (speed, duplex, etc.). The very first versions of the driver submitted for review were using this hardware mechanism, but due to this, the driver was not integrated with the kernel phylib. Following reviews, the driver was changed to use the phylib, and therefore a software based polling. In software based polling, Linux regularly talks to the PHY over the MDIO bus, and sees if the link status has changed. If it's the case then the adjust_link() callback of the driver is called to update the MAC configuration accordingly. However, it turns out that the adjust_link() callback was not configuring the hardware in a completely correct way: while it was setting the speed and duplex bits correctly, it wasn't telling the hardware to actually take into account those bits rather than what the hardware-based PHY polling mechanism has concluded. So, in fact the adjust_link() callback was basically a no-op. However, the network happened to be working because on the network interfaces used by U-Boot for tftp on Armada 370 platforms because the hardware PHY polling was enabled by the bootloader, and left enabled by Linux. However, the second network interface not used for tftp (or both network interfaces if the kernel is loaded from USB, NAND or SD card) didn't had the hardware PHY polling enabled. This patch fixes this situation by: (1) Making sure that the hardware PHY polling is disabled by clearing the MVNETA_PHY_POLLING_ENABLE bit in the MVNETA_UNIT_CONTROL register in the driver ->probe() function. (2) Making sure that the duplex and speed selections made by the adjust_link() callback are taken into account by clearing the MVNETA_GMAC_AN_SPEED_EN and MVNETA_GMAC_AN_DUPLEX_EN bits in the MVNETA_GMAC_AUTONEG_CONFIG register. This patch has been tested on Armada 370 Mirabox, and now both network interfaces are usable after boot.

The macros used for the various fields of the RX and TX descriptions are currently declared next to those fields within the structure definitions of the RX and TX descriptors. However, in order to support big endian, we'll have to use the "swap descriptors" features of the hardware, which swaps every byte within each 64 bits word of the descriptors. This requires a separate definition of the RX and TX descriptor structures for little and big endian, as is done in the mv643xx_eth. Those macros can therefore no longer be defined inside those structures. Signed-off-by: NThomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch improves the logic used by the mvneta driver to find a MAC address for a particular interface. Until now, it was only looking at the Device Tree, and if no address was found, was falling back to generating a random MAC address. This patch adds the intermediate solution of reading the MAC address from the hardware registers, in case it has been set by the bootloader. So the order is now: 1) MAC address from the Device Tree 2) MAC address from the hardware registers 3) Random MAC address This requires moving the MAC address initialization a little bit later in the ->probe() code, because it now requires the hardware registers to be remapped.

The driver core clears the driver data to NULL after device_release or on probe failure, since commit 0998d063 (device-core: Ensure drvdata = NULL when no driver is bound). Thus, it is not needed to manually clear the device driver data to NULL.

mvneta_tx() was using a static tx queue number causing crashes as soon as a little bit of traffic was sent via the interface, because it is normally expected that the same queue should be used as in dev_queue_xmit(). As suggested by Ben Hutchings, let's use skb_get_queue_mapping() to get the proper Tx queue number, and use alloc_etherdev_mqs() instead of alloc_etherdev_mq() to create the queues. Both my Mirabox and my OpenBlocks AX3 used to crash without this patch and don't anymore with it. The issue appeared in 3.8 but became more visible after the fix allowing GSO to be enabled. Original work was done by Dmitri Epshtein and Thomas Petazzoni. I just adapted it to take care of Ben's comments.

It seems that the reason why the dev features were ignored was because they were enabled after registeration. Signed-off-by: NWilly Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Acked-by: NThomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

I believe these error messages are already logged on allocation failure by warn_alloc_failed and so get a dump_stack on OOM. Remove the unnecessary additional error logging. Around these deletions: o Alignment neatening. o Remove unnecessary casts of dma_alloc_coherent. o Hoist assigns from ifs. Signed-off-by: NJoe Perches <joe@perches.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

mvneta_deinit() can be called from the ->probe() hook in the error path, so it shouldn't be marked as __devexit. It fixes the following section mismatch warning: WARNING: vmlinux.o(.devinit.text+0x239c): Section mismatch in reference from the function mvneta_probe() to the function .devexit.text:mvneta_deinit() The function __devinit mvneta_probe() references a function __devexit mvneta_deinit().

Now that the Armada 370/XP platform has gained proper integration with the clock framework, we add clk support in the Marvell Armada 370/XP Ethernet driver. Since the existing Device Tree binding that exposes a 'clock-frequency' property has never been exposed in any stable kernel release, we take the freedom of removing this property to replace it with the standard 'clocks' clock pointer property. The Device Tree binding documentation is updated accordingly. Signed-off-by: NThomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>

This patch contains a new network driver for the network unit of the ARM Marvell Armada 370 and the Armada XP. Both SoCs use the PJ4B processor, a Marvell-developed ARM core that implements the ARMv7 instruction set. Compared to previous ARM Marvell SoCs (Kirkwood, Orion, Discovery), the network unit in Armada 370 and Armada XP is highly different. This is the reason why this new 'mvneta' driver is needed, while the older ARM Marvell SoCs use the 'mv643xx_eth' driver. Here is an overview of the most important hardware changes that require a new, specific, driver for the network unit of Armada 370/XP: - The new network unit has a completely different design and layout for the RX and TX descriptors. They are now organized as a simple array (each RX and TX queue has base address and size of this array) rather than a linked list as in the old SoCs. - The new network unit has a different RXQ and TXQ management: this management is done using special read/write counter registers, while in the Old SocS, it was done using the Ownership bit in RX and TX descriptors. - The new network unit has different interrupt registers - The new network unit way of cleaning of interrupts is not done by writing to the cause register, but by updating per-queue counters - The new network unit has different GMAC registers (link, speed, duplex configuration) and different WRR registers. - The new network unit has lots of new units like PnC (Parser and Classifier), PMT, BM (Memory Buffer Management), xPON, and more. The driver proposed in the current patch only handles the basic features. Additional hardware features will progressively be supported as needed. This code has originally been written by Rami Rosen <rosenr@marvell.com>, and then reviewed and cleaned up by Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com>.
