A malicious VF might try to starve the other VFs & PF by creating contineous doorbell floods. In order to negate this, HW has a threshold of doorbells per client, which will stop the client doorbells from arriving if crossed. The threshold currently configured for VFs is too low - under extreme traffic scenarios, it's possible for a VF to reach the threshold and thus for its fastpath to stop working.

o min_tx_rate puts lower limit on the VF bandwidth. VF is guaranteed to have a bandwidth of at least this value. max_tx_rate puts cap on the VF bandwidth. VF can have a bandwidth of up to this value. o A new handler set_vf_rate for attr IFLA_VF_RATE has been introduced which takes 4 arguments: netdev, VF number, min_tx_rate, max_tx_rate o ndo_set_vf_rate replaces ndo_set_vf_tx_rate handler. o Drivers that currently implement ndo_set_vf_tx_rate should now call ndo_set_vf_rate instead and reject attempt to set a minimum bandwidth greater than 0 for IFLA_VF_TX_RATE when IFLA_VF_RATE is not yet implemented by driver. o If user enters only one of either min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, then, userland should read back the other value from driver and set both for IFLA_VF_RATE. Drivers that have not yet implemented IFLA_VF_RATE should always return min_tx_rate as 0 when read from ip tool. o If both IFLA_VF_TX_RATE and IFLA_VF_RATE options are specified, then IFLA_VF_RATE should override. o Idea is to have consistent display of rate values to user. o Usage example: - ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 rate 900 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5a, tx rate 900 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 900Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 max_tx_rate 300 min_tx_rate 200 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5a, tx rate 300 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 300Mbps, min_tx_rate 200Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 max_tx_rate 600 rate 300 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5, tx rate 600 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 600Mbps, min_tx_rate 200Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a Signed-off-by: NSucheta Chakraborty <sucheta.chakraborty@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Starting with commit 2dc33bbc "bnx2x: Remove the sriov VFOP mechanism", the bnx2x started enforcing vlan credits for all vlan configurations. This exposed 2 issues: - Vlan credits are not returned once a VF is removed; this causes a leak of credits, and eventually will lead to VFs with no vlan credits. - A vlan credit must be set aside for the Hypervisor to use, and should not be visible to the VF. Although linux VFs at the moment do not support vlan configuration [from the VF side] which causes them to be resilient to this sort of issue, Windows VF over linux hypervisors might fail to load as the vlan credits become depleted.

Since we now posses a workqueue dedicated for sriov, the paradigm that sriov- related tasks cannot sleep is no longer correct. The VFOP mechanism was the one previously supporting said paradigm - the sriov related tasks were broken into segments which did not require sleep, and the mechanism re-scheduled the next segment whenever possible. This patch remvoes the VFOP mechanism altogether - the resulting code is a much easier to follow code; The segments are gathered into straight-forward functions which sleep whenever neccessary.

The bnx2x sriov mechanisms were done in the bnx2x slowpath workitem which runs on the bnx2x's workqueue; This workitem is also responsible for the bottom half of interrupt handling in the driver, and specifically it also receives FW notifications of ramrod completions, allowing other flows to progress. The original design of the sriov reltaed-flows was based on the notion such flows must not sleep, since their context is the slowpath workitem. Otherwise, we might reach timeouts - those flows may wait for ramrod completion that will never arrive as the workitem wlll not be re-scheduled until that same flow will be over. In more recent time bnx2x started supporting features in which the VF interface can be configured by the tools accessing the PF on the hypervisor. This support created possible races on the VF-PF lock (which is taken either when the PF is handling a VF message or when the PF is doing some slowpath work on behalf of the VF) which may cause timeouts on the VF side and lags on the PF side. This patch changes the scheme - it creates a new workqueue for sriov related tasks and moves all handling currently done in the slowpath task into the the new workqueue.

bnx2x driver uses incorrect PF identifier to configure (in HW) the VF interrupt scheme; As a result, in multi-function mode the configuration for PFs with a high index (4+) will overflow and the PF will erroneously configure a single ISR scheme for its VFs. As a result, if such a VF uses multiple queues, interrupt generation will stop after VF receives an Rx packet or sends a Tx packet on a queue other than queue[0].

If the hypervisor configures a vlan for the VF via the PF, the expected result is that only packets tagged by said vlan will be received by the VF (and that vlan will be silently removed).

When the bnx2x driver is rmmoded, if VFs of a given PF will be assigned to a VM then that PF will be unable to call `pci_disable_sriov()'. If for that same PF there would also exist unassigned VFs in the hypervisor, the result will be that after the removal there will still be virtual PCI functions on the hypervisor. If the bnx2x module were to be re-inserted, the result will be that the VFs on the hypervisor will be re-probed directly following the PF's probe, even though that in regular loading flow sriov is only enabled once PF is loaded. The probed VF will then try to access its bar, causing a PCI error as the HW is not in a state enabling such a request. This patch adds a missing disablement procedure to the PF's removal, one that sets registers viewable to the VF to indicate that the VFs have no permission to access the bar, thus resulting in probe errors instead of PCI errors.

There are possible HW configurations in which PFs will have SR-IOV capability but will have Max VFs set to 0 - this happens when there are Multi-Function devices where the VFs are allocated to only some of the PFs. DMAE is configured to support VFs only if the configuring PF has supported VFs. In case the first PF to be loaded will be one without supported VFs, it will not configure DMAE to the VF-supporting mode. When VFs of other PFs will be loaded later on, they will not be able to communicate with their PF. This changes the requirement for configuring DMAE for VF-supporting mode; If the device has SR-IOV capabilities there must be some PF that has max supported VFs > 0, thus it will configure the DMAE for supporting VFs.

On very rare occasions, repeated load/unload stress test in the presence of our storage driver (bnx2i/bnx2fc) causes a kernel panic in bnx2x code (NULL pointer dereference). Stack traces indicate the issue happens during MAC configuration; thorough code review showed that indeed several races exist in which one thread can iterate over the list of configured MACs while another deletes entries from the same list. This patch adds a varient on the single-writer/Multiple-reader lock mechanism - It utilizes an already exsiting bottom-half lock, using it so that Whenever a writer is unable to continue due to the existence of another writer/reader, it pends its request for future deliverance. The writer / last readers will check for the existence of such requests and perform them instead of the original initiator. This prevents the writer from having to sleep while waiting for the lock to be accessible, which might cause deadlocks given the locks already held by the writer. Another result of this patch is that setting of Rx Mode is now made in sleepable context - Setting of Rx Mode is made under a bottom-half lock, which was always nontrivial for the bnx2x driver, as the HW/FW configuration requires wait for completions. Since sleep was impossible (due to the sleepless-context), various mechanisms were utilized to prevent the calling thread from sleep, but the truth was that when the caller thread (i.e, the one calling ndo_set_rx_mode()) returned, the Rx mode was still not set in HW/FW. bnx2x_set_rx_mode() will now overtly schedule for the Rx changes to be configured by the sp_rtnl_task which hold the RTNL lock and is sleepable context.
