tg3 is supposed to enable WoL by default on adapters which support that, but it fails to do so unless the adapter's /sys/devices/.../power/wakeup file contains 'enabled' during the initialization of the adapter.

Noting that this error occured on a serdes based device, we noted that there were a few ethtool operations (most notably self_test and set_phys_id) that have execution paths that lead into bnx2_setup_serdes_phy. This function is notable because it executes a mod_timer call, which starts the bp->timer running. Currently bnx2 is setup to assume that this timer only nees to be stopped when bnx2_close or bnx2_suspend is called. Since the above ethtool operations are not gated on the net device having been opened however, that assumption is incorrect, and can lead to the timer still running after the module has been removed, leading to the oops above (as well as other simmilar oopses). Fix the problem by ensuring that the timer is stopped when pci_device_unregister is called.

The firmware is cached during the first successfull call to open() and released once the network device is unregistered. The driver uses the cached firmware between open() and unregister_netdev(). So far the firmware is optional : a failure to load the firmware does not prevent open() to success. It is thus necessary to 1) unregister all 816x / 810[23] devices and 2) force a driver probe to issue a new firmware load.

A deadlock was reported to me recently that occured when netconsole was being used in a virtual guest. If the virtio_net driver was removed while netconsole was setup to use an interface that was driven by that driver, the guest deadlocked. No backtrace was provided because netconsole was the only console configured, but it became clear pretty quickly what the problem was. In netconsole_netdev_event, if we get an unregister event, we call __netpoll_cleanup with the target_list_lock held and irqs disabled. __netpoll_cleanup can, if pending netpoll packets are waiting call cancel_delayed_work_sync, which is a sleeping path. the might_sleep call in that path gets triggered, causing a console warning to be issued. The netconsole write handler of course tries to take the target_list_lock again, which we already hold, causing deadlock. The fix is pretty striaghtforward. Simply drop the target_list_lock and re-enable irqs prior to calling __netpoll_cleanup, the re-acquire the lock, and restart the loop. Confirmed by myself to fix the problem reported.

mac-fec.c was setting individual UDP address registers instead of multicast group address registers when joining a multicast group. This prevented from correctly receiving UDP multicast packets. According to datasheet, replaced hash_table_high and hash_table_low with grp_hash_table_high and grp_hash_table_low respectively. Also renamed hash_table_* with grp_hash_table_* in struct fec declaration for 8xx: these registers are used only for multicast there. Tested on a MPC5121 based board.

The slave member of struct aggregator does not necessarily point to a slave which is part of the aggregator. It points to the slave structure containing the aggregator structure, while completely different slaves (or no slaves at all) may be part of the aggregator. The agg_device_up() function wrongly uses agg->slave to find the state of the aggregator. Use agg->lag_ports->slave instead.

During PHY errors, the MAC can sometimes fail to enter an idle state on older hardware (before AR9380) after an rx stop has been requested. This typically shows up in the kernel log with messages like these: ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we start RX up ------------[ cut here ]------------ WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/recv.c:504 ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k]() Call Trace: [<8023f0e8>] dump_stack+0x8/0x34 [<80075050>] warn_slowpath_common+0x78/0xa4 [<80075094>] warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x24 [<80d66d60>] ath_stoprecv+0xcc/0xf0 [ath9k] [<80d642cc>] ath_set_channel+0xbc/0x270 [ath9k] [<80d65254>] ath_radio_disable+0x4a4/0x7fc [ath9k] When this happens, the state that the MAC enters is easy to identify and does not result in bogus DMA traffic, however to ensure a working state after a channel change, the hardware should still be reset. This patch adds detection for this specific MAC state, after which the above warnings completely disappear in my tests.

During self-tests we use efx_process_channel_now() to handle completion and other events synchronously. This disables interrupts and NAPI processing for the channel in question, but it may still be interrupted by another channel. A single socket may receive packets from multiple net devices or even multiple channels of the same net device, so this can result in deadlock on a socket lock. Receiving packets in process context will also result in incorrect classification by the network cgroup classifier. Therefore, we must only use efx_process_channel_now() in the offline loopback tests (which never deliver packets up the stack) and not for the online interrupt and event tests. For the interrupt test, there is no reason to process events. We only care that an interrupt is raised. For the event test, we want to know whether events have been received, and there may be many events ahead of the one we inject. Therefore remove efx_channel::magic_count and instead test whether efx_channel::eventq_read_ptr advances. This is currently an event queue index and might wrap around to exactly the same value, resulting in a false negative. Therefore move the masking to efx_event() and efx_nic_eventq_read_ack() so that it cannot wrap within the time of the test. The event test also tries to diagnose failures by checking whether an event was delivered without causing an interrupt. Add and use a helper function that only does this.
