DSA is currently registering one packet_type function per EtherType it needs to intercept in the receive path of a DSA-enabled Ethernet device. Right now we have three of them: trailer, DSA and eDSA, and there might be more in the future, this will not scale to the addition of new protocols. This patch proceeds with adding a new layer of abstraction and two new functions: dsa_switch_rcv() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific receive function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c dsa_slave_xmit() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific transmit function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c When we do create the per-port slave network devices, we iterate over the switch protocol to assign the DSA-specific receive and transmit operations. A new fake ethertype value is used: ETH_P_XDSA to illustrate the fact that this is no longer going to look like ETH_P_DSA or ETH_P_TRAILER like it used to be. This allows us to greatly simplify the check in eth_type_trans() and always override the skb->protocol with ETH_P_XDSA for Ethernet switches tagged protocol, while also reducing the number repetitive slave netdevice_ops assignments.

Unfortunately, the USB gadget layer has this weird things where NULL skbs are passed into ops->ndo_start_xmit() in order to trigger the dev->wrap() calls to build packets. This is completely outside of the allowable range of sane arguments for the ndo_start_xmit method. All invocations of ndo_start_xmit() should be with non-NULL SKB arguments. Put back the direct call, but with a comment explaining how this is not acceptable in the long term. Reported-by: NDan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Some platforms have special bank registers which might be used to select the correct clock or the right mode for Media Indepent Interface controllers. Sometimes, it is also required to activate vcc regulators in the right order to supply the ethernet controller at the right time. This patch is an architecture refactoring of the arc-emac device driver. It adds a new software design which allows to add specific platform glue layer. Each platform has now its own module which performs custom initialization and remove for the target and then calls to the core driver.

When one tries to add eth as a port into team and that eth is already in use by other rx_handler device (macvlan, bond, bridge, ...) a bug in team_port_add() causes that IFF_TEAM_PORT flag is set before rx_handler is registered. In between, netdev nofifier is called and team_device_event() sees IFF_TEAM_PORT and thinks that rx_handler_data pointer is set to team_port. But it isn't. Fix this by reordering rx_handler register and IFF_TEAM_PORT priv flag set so it is very similar to how bonding does this.

As reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer, for high packet rates the overhead of having another indirect call in the TX path is non-trivial. There is the indirect call itself, and then there is all of the reloading of the state to refetch the tail pointer value and then write the device register. Move to a more passive scheme, which requires very light modifications to the device drivers. The signal is a new skb->xmit_more value, if it is non-zero it means that more SKBs are pending to be transmitted on the same queue as the current SKB. And therefore, the driver may elide the tail pointer update. Right now skb->xmit_more is always zero. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Amir Vadai says: ==================== Make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules I'm re-spinning this patchset. At the begining it was suggested to use a different name for the parameter, but at the end [3] the resolution was to leave it as it is in this patch. Drivers need to know if running from kdump kernel in order to change their memory profile - since kdump environment is limited by available memory. Currently there are drivers that are using reset_devices as suggested in [2]. In [2] it was suggested to use reset_devices, but the context was, to enable driver to know when the hardware device is needed to be reset, and not if this is a kdump environment. We think that is_kdump_kernel() is better suited to select between different memory profiles. The first patch in this patchset exports a needed symbol in order to make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from the drivers. The rest of the patches change from reset_devices to is_kdump_kernel() in 2 networking drivers. The idea of this patchset was suggested by Vivek Goyal. Tested (only build) and applied on top of commit 8fc54f68: ("net: use reciprocal_scale() helper") [1] - ea1c1af1: ("net/mlx4_en: Reduce memory consumption on kdump kernel") [2] - https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/27/341 [3] - http://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg291492.html ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

In order to make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules, need to make elfcorehdr_addr exported. This was rejected in the past [1] because reset_devices was prefered in that context (reseting the device in kdump kernel), but now there are some network drivers that need to reduce memory usage when loaded from a kdump kernel. And in that context, is_kdump_kernel() suits better.

Basic deferred TX queue flushing infrastructure. Over time, and specifically and more recently at the Networking Workshop during Kernel SUmmit in Chicago, we have discussed the idea of having some way to optimize transmits of multiple TX packets at a time. There are several areas of overhead that could be amortized with such schemes. One has to do with locking and transactional overhead, the other has to do with device specific costs. This patch set here is more aimed at device specific costs. Typically a device queues up a packet in the TX queue and then has to do something to have the device start processing that new entry. Sometimes this is composed of doing an MMIO write to a "tail" register, and in other cases it can involve something as expensive as a hypervisor call. The basic setup defined here is that when the driver supports deferred TX queue flushing, ndo_start_xmit should no longer perform that operation. Instead a new operation, ndo_xmit_flush, should do it. I have converted IGB and virtio_net as example initial users. The IGB conversion is tested, virtio_net is not but it does compile :-) All ndo_start_xmit call sites have been abstracted behind a new helper called netdev_start_xmit(). This just adds the infrastructure, it does not actually add any instances of actually doing multiple ndo_start_xmit calls per ndo_xmit_flush invocation. Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
