      ixgbe add thermal sensor support for x540 hardware · 4f51bf70
      Jacob Keller 提交于
      Add code to enable thermal sensors for the x540 hardware, as well as a
      thermal interrupt check which will exit with a critical message of a
      thermal overheat is detected. Intent of code allows other mac types to
      be added with different configuration in the future.
      
      Fixed in this version is the addition of setting the temp_sensor
      capable flag which was previously only set for a specific mac.

      ixgbe: update {P}FC thresholds to account for X540 and loopback · 9da712d2
      John Fastabend 提交于
      Revise high and low threshold marks wrt flow control to account
      for the X540 devices and latency introduced by the loopback
      switch.
      
      Without this it was in theory possible to drop frames on a
      supposedly lossless link with X540 or SR-IOV enabled.
      
      Previously we used a magic number in a define to calculate the
      threshold values. This made it difficult to sort out exactly
      which latencies were or were not being accounted for. Here
      I was overly explicit and tried to used #define names that would
      be recognizable after reading the IEEE 802.1Qbb specification.

      ixgbe: Cleanup q_vector interrupt throttle rate logic · d5bf4f67
      Emil Tantilov 提交于
      This patch is meant to help cleanup the interrupt throttle rate logic by
      storing the interrupt throttle rate as a value in microseconds instead of
      interrupts per second.  The advantage to this approach is that the value
      can now be stored in an 16 bit field and doesn't require as much math to
      flip the value back and forth since the hardware already used microseconds
      when setting the rate.

      e1000: don't enable dma receives until after dma address has been setup · d5bc77a2
      Dean Nelson 提交于
      Doing an 'ifconfig ethN down' followed by an 'ifconfig ethN up' on a qemu-kvm
      guest system configured with two e1000 NICs can result in an 'unable to handle
      kernel paging request at 0000000100000000' or 'bad page map in process ...' or
      something similar.
      
      These result from a 4096-byte page being corrupted with the following two-word
      pattern (16-bytes) repeated throughout the entire page:
      
        0x0000000000000000
        0x0000000100000000
      
      There can be other bits set as well. What is a constant is that the 2nd word
      has the 32nd bit set. So one could see:
      
              :
        0x0000000000000000
        0x0000000100000000
        0x0000000000000000
        0x0000000172adc067    <<< bad pte
        0x800000006ec60067
        0x0000000700000040
        0x0000000000000000
        0x0000000100000000
              :
      
      Which came from from a process' page table I dumped out when the marked line
      was seen as bad by print_bad_pte().
      
      The repeating pattern represents the e1000's two-word receive descriptor:
      
      struct e1000_rx_desc {
              __le64 buffer_addr;   /* Address of the descriptor's data buffer */
              __le16 length;        /* Length of data DMAed into data buffer */
              __le16 csum;          /* Packet checksum */
              u8 status;            /* Descriptor status */
              u8 errors;            /* Descriptor Errors */
              __le16 special;
      };
      
      And the 32nd bit of the 2nd word maps to the 'u8 status' member, and
      corresponds to E1000_RXD_STAT_DD which indicates the descriptor is done.
      
      The corruption appears to result from the following...
      
       . An 'ifconfig ethN down' gets us into e1000_close(), which through a number
         of subfunctions results in:
           1. E1000_RCTL_EN being cleared in RCTL register.  [e1000_down()]
           2. dma_free_coherent() being called.  [e1000_free_rx_resources()]
      
       . An 'ifconfig ethN up' gets us into e1000_open(), which through a number of
         subfunctions results in:
           1. dma_alloc_coherent() being called.  [e1000_setup_rx_resources()]
           2. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_setup_rctl()]
           3. E1000_RCTL_EN being cleared in RCTL register.  [e1000_configure_rx()]
           4. RDLEN, RDBAH and RDBAL registers being set to reflect the dma page
              allocated in step 1.  [e1000_configure_rx()]
           5. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_configure_rx()]
      
      During the 'ifconfig ethN up' there is a window opened, starting in step 2
      where the receives are enabled up until they are disabled in step 3, in which
      the address of the receive descriptor dma page known by the NIC is still the
      previous one which was freed during the 'ifconfig ethN down'. If this memory
      has been reallocated for some other use and the NIC feels so inclined, it will
      write to that former dma page with predictably unpleasant results.
      
      I realize that in the guest, we're dealing with an e1000 NIC that is software
      emulated by qemu-kvm. The problem doesn't appear to occur on bare-metal. Andy
      suspects that this is because in the emulator link-up is essentially instant
      and traffic can start flowing immediately. Whereas on bare-metal, link-up
      usually seems to take at least a few milliseconds. And this might be enough
      to prevent traffic from flowing into the device inside the window where
      E1000_RCTL_EN is set.
      
      So perhaps a modification needs to be made to the qemu-kvm e1000 NIC emulator
      to delay the link-up. But in defense of the emulator, it seems like a bad idea
      to enable dma operations before the address of the memory to be involved has
      been made known.
      
      The following patch no longer enables receives in e1000_setup_rctl() but leaves
      them however they were. It only enables receives in e1000_configure_rx(), and
      only after the dma address has been made known to the hardware.
      
      There are two places where e1000_setup_rctl() gets called. The one in
      e1000_configure() is followed immediately by a call to e1000_configure_rx(), so
      there's really no change functionally (except for the removal of the problem
      window. The other is in __e1000_shutdown() and is not followed by a call to
      e1000_configure_rx(), so there is a change functionally. But consider...
      
       . An 'ifconfig ethN down' (just as described above).
      
       . A 'suspend' of the system, which (I'm assuming) will find its way into
         e1000_suspend() which calls __e1000_shutdown() resulting in:
           1. E1000_RCTL_EN being set in RCTL register.  [e1000_setup_rctl()]
      
      And again we've re-opened the problem window for some unknown amount of time.

      candev: allow SJW user setting for bittiming calculation · 2e114374
      Oliver Hartkopp 提交于
      This patch adds support for SJW user settings to not set the synchronization
      jump width (SJW) to 1 in any case when using the in-kernel bittiming
      calculation.
      
      The ip-tool from iproute2 already supports to pass the user defined SJW
      value. The given SJW value is sanitized with the controller specific sjw_max
      and the calculated tseg2 value. As the SJW can have values up to 4 providing
      this value will lead to the maximum possible SJW automatically. A higher SJW
      allows higher controller oscillator tolerances.

      connector: add comm change event report to proc connector · f786ecba
      Vladimir Zapolskiy 提交于
      Add an event to monitor comm value changes of tasks.  Such an event
      becomes vital, if someone desires to control threads of a process in
      different manner.
      
      A natural characteristic of threads is its comm value, and helpfully
      application developers have an opportunity to change it in runtime.
      Reporting about such events via proc connector allows to fine-grain
      monitoring and control potentials, for instance a process control daemon
      listening to proc connector and following comm value policies can place
      specific threads to assigned cgroup partitions.
      
      It might be possible to achieve a pale partial one-shot likeness without
      this update, if an application changes comm value of a thread generator
      task beforehand, then a new thread is cloned, and after that proc
      connector listener gets the fork event and reads new thread's comm value
      from procfs stat file, but this change visibly simplifies and extends the
      matter.

      af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default · 16e57262
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Since commit 7361c36c (af_unix: Allow credentials to work across
      user and pid namespaces) af_unix performance dropped a lot.
      
      This is because we now take a reference on pid and cred in each write(),
      and release them in read(), usually done from another process,
      eventually from another cpu. This triggers false sharing.
