When backing device firmware reports an error, it provides an error ID, which is meant to be queried for more detailed error information. Currently, however, an error ID is not provided by the Virtual I/O server and there are not any plans to do so. For now, it is always unfilled or zero, so request_error_information will never be called. Remove it. Signed-off-by: NThomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Introduce a recovery hard reset to handle reset failure as a result of change of device context following a transport event, such as a backing device failover or partition migration. These operations reset the device context to its initial state. If this occurs during a reset, any initialization commands are likely to fail with an invalid state error as backing device firmware requests reinitialization. When this happens, make one more attempt by performing a hard reset, which frees any resources currently allocated and performs device initialization. If a transport event occurs during a device reset, a flag is set which will trigger a new hard reset following the completionof the current reset event.

Introduce an "active" state for a IBM vNIC Command-Response Queue. A CRQ is considered active once it has initialized or linked with its partner by sending an initialization request and getting a successful response back from the management partition. Until this has happened, do not allow CRQ commands to be sent other than the initialization request. This change will avoid a protocol error in case of a device transport event occurring during a initialization. When the driver receives a transport event notification indicating that the backing hardware has changed and needs reinitialization, any further commands other than the initialization handshake with the VIOS management partition will result in an invalid state error. Instead of sending a command that will be returned with an error, print a warning and return an error that will be handled by the caller.

There is a bug in handling the possible return codes from sending the login CRQ. The current code treats any non-success return value, minus failure to send the crq and a timeout waiting for a login response, as a need to re-send the login CRQ. This can put the drive in an infinite loop of trying to login when getting return values other that a partial success such as a return code of aborted. For these scenarios the login will not ever succeed at this point and the driver would need to be reset again. To resolve this loop trying to login is updated to only retry the login if the driver gets a return code of a partial success. Other return codes are treated as an error and the driver returns an error from ibmvnic_login(). To avoid infinite looping in the partial success return cases, the number of retries is capped at the maximum number of supported queues. This value was chosen because the driver does a renegotiation of capabilities which sets the number of queues possible and allows the driver to attempt a login for possible value for the number of queues supported.

There is a failover case for a non-redundant pseries VNIC configuration that was not being handled properly. The current implementation assumes that the driver will always have a redandant device to communicate with following a failover notification. There are cases, however, when a non-redundant configuration can receive a failover request. If that happens, the driver should wait until it receives a signal that the device is ready for operation. The driver is agnostic of its backing hardware configuration, so this fix necessarily affects all device failover management. The driver needs to wait until it receives a signal that the device is ready for resetting. A flag is introduced to track this intermediary state where the driver is waiting for an active device.

Update TX and TX completion routines to account for TX pool restructuring. TX routine first chooses the pool depending on whether a packet is GSO or not, then uses it accordingly.

The approach of one counter to rule them all when tracking the number of active sub-crqs, pools, and napi has problems handling some failover scenarios.

Using newer backing devices can cause the required padding at the end of buffer as well as the number of queues to change after a failover. Since we currently assume that these values never change, after a failover to a backing device with different capabilities, we can get errors from the vnic server, attempt to free long term buffers that are no longer there, or not free long term buffers that should be freed. This patch resolves the issue by checking whether any of these values change, and if so perform the necessary re-allocations.

The patch stores the return code of the REQUEST_MAP_RSP sub-CRQ command in the private data structure, where it can be later checked during device open or a reset. In the case of a reset, the mapping request to the vNIC Server may fail, especially in the case of a partition migration. The driver attempts to handle this by re-allocating the buffer and re-sending the mapping request. The original error handling implementation was removed. The separate function handling the REQUEST_MAP response message was also removed, since it is now simple enough to be handled in the ibmvnic_handle_crq function.

The ibmvnic driver has multiple handlers for resetting the driver depending on the reason the reset is needed (failover, lpm, fatal erors,...). All of the reset handlers do essentially the same thing, this patch moves this work to a common reset handler. By doing this we also allow the driver to better handle situations where we can get a reset while handling a reset. The updated reset handling works by adding a reset work item to the list of resets and then scheduling work to perform the reset. This step is necessary because we can receive a reset in interrupt context and we want to handle the reset out of interrupt context.

After sending device capability queries and requests to the vNIC Server, an interrupt is triggered and the responses are written to the driver's CRQ response buffer. Since the interrupt can be triggered before all responses are written and visible to the partition, there is a danger that the interrupt handler or tasklet can terminate before all responses are read, resulting in a failure to initialize the device. To avoid this scenario, when capability commands are sent, we set a flag that will be checked in the following interrupt tasklet that will handle the capability responses from the server. Once all responses have been handled, the flag is disabled; and the tasklet is allowed to terminate. Signed-off-by: NThomas Falcon <tlfalcon@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
