Fix issue in Mellanox driver related to BQL. netdev_tx_reset_queue was not being called in certain situations where the device was being start and stopped. Moved netdev_tx_reset_queue from the reset device path to mlx4_en_free_tx_buf which is where the rings are cleaned in a reset (specifically from device being stopped).

Amir Vadai says: ==================== This series from Yan Burman adds support for unicast MAC address filtering and ndo FDB operations. It also includes some optimizations to loopback related decisions and checks in the TX/RX fast path and one cleanup, all in separate patches. Today, when adding macvlan devices, the NIC goes into promiscuous mode, since unicast MAC filtering is not supported. With these changes, macvlan devices can be added without the penalty of promiscuous mode. If for some reason adding a unicast address filter fails e.g as of missing space in the HW mac table, the device forces itself into promiscuous mode (and out of this forced state when enough space is available). Also, now it is possible to have bridge under multi-function configuration that include PF and VFs. In order to use bridge over PF/VFs, VM MAC fdb entries must be added e.g. using 'bridge fdb add' command. Changes from v1 - based on more comments from Eric Dumazet: * added failure handling when adding unicast address filter Changes from v0 - based on comments from Eric Dumazet: * Removed unneeded synchronize_rcu() * Use kfree_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu() + kfree() ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

由 Yan Burman 提交于
Currently, RX path code that does RX filtering is not optimized and does an expensive conversion. In order to use ether_addr_equal_64bits which is optimized for such cases, we need the MAC address kept by the device to be in the form of unsigned char array instead of u64. Store the MAC address as unsigned char array and convert to/from u64 out of the fast path when needed. Side effect of this is that we no longer need priv->mac, since it's the same as dev->dev_addr.

Currently there are relatively complex conditional checks in the fast path, for TX loopback enabling and resulting RX filter logic. Move elaborate if's out of data path, replace them with a single flag for each state and update that state from appropriate places. Also, in native (non SRIOV) mode and not in loopback or in selftest, there is no need to try and filter out packets that HW loopback-ed, as in native mode we do not loopback packets anymore.

skb_gso_segment() is almost always called in tx path, except for openvswitch. It calls this function when it receives the packet and tries to queue it to user-space. In this special case, the ->ip_summed check inside skb_gso_segment() is no longer true, as ->ip_summed value has different meanings on rx path.

Some modes don't require any special carrier handling so in these cases, the kernel can control the carrier as for any other interface. However, some other modes, e.g. lacp, requires more than just that, so userspace needs to control the carrier itself. The daemon today is ready to control it, but the kernel still can change it based on events. This fix so that either kernel or userspace is controlling the carrier.

Ivan Vercera was recently backporting commit 9c13cb8b to a RHEL kernel, and I noticed that, while this patch protects the tg3 driver from having its ndo_poll_controller routine called during device initalization, it does nothing for the driver during shutdown. I.e. it would be entirely possible to have the ndo_poll_controller method (or subsequently the ndo_poll) routine called for a driver in the netpoll path on CPU A while in parallel on CPU B, the ndo_close or ndo_open routine could be called. Given that the two latter routines tend to initizlize and free many data structures that the former two rely on, the result can easily be data corruption or various other crashes. Furthermore, it seems that this is potentially a problem with all net drivers that support netpoll, and so this should ideally be fixed in a common path. As Ben H Pointed out to me, we can't preform dev_open/dev_close in atomic context, so I've come up with this solution. We can use a mutex to sleep in open/close paths and just do a mutex_trylock in the napi poll path and abandon the poll attempt if we're locked, as we'll just retry the poll on the next send anyway. I've tested this here by flooding netconsole with messages on a system whos nic driver I modfied to periodically return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so that the netpoll tx workqueue would be forced to send frames and poll the device. While this was going on I rapidly ifdown/up'ed the interface and watched for any problems. I've not found any.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to e1000e and ixgbe. Majority of the patches are against e1000e, where Bruce makes several cosmetic #define moves into header files. In addition, Bruce does a cleanup of braces to resolve checkpatch warnings (when using the strict option). Ixgbe patches contain several fixes as well as updating the copyright. The fixes from Josh Hay, resolved a possible NULL pointer dereference and resolved Smatch warnings by fixing return values and memcpy parameters. Alex provides 2 fixes, the first is to replace rmb() with read_barrier_depends() in the Tx cleanup. The second fixes an MTU warning when using SR-IOV which corrects the fact that we were using 1522 to test for the max frame size in ixgbe_change_mtu and 1518 in ixgbe_set_vf_lpe. The difference was the addition of VLAN_HLEN, which we only need to add in the case of computing a buffer size, but not a filter size. Lastly, a patch from Emil which is based on a community patch from Aurélien Guillaume which adds functions needed for reading SFF-8472 diagnostic data from SFP modules. ==================== Signed-off-by: NDavid S.
