Removed some of unnecessary if statements and unreachable code found by static code analysis tool. The return value of i40e_vsi_control_rings(..., false) is always 0. So, test for non-zero will never be true. The function has been split into "int i40e_vsi_start_rings()" and "void i40e_vsi_stop_rings()" for better understanding. Similarly, the function i40e_vsi_kill_vlan() never fails. So, checking for return value is also unnecessary. Function definition changed to void. The i40e_loopback_test() function is not implemented. The function and all references to loopback testing were removed.

This patch adds a common method for finding a VSI by type. The main motivation for doing this is that the Flow Director path actually had two ways of handling this, one stopped on first match and one did not. This patch makes it so that all callers of this function will get the same approach for finding a VSI.

So the i40e driver had a really convoluted configuration for how to handle the debug flags contained in msg_level. Part of the issue is that the driver has its own 32 bit mask that it was using to track a separate set of debug features. From what I can tell it was trying to use the upper 4 bits to determine if the value was meant to represent a bit-mask or the numeric value provided by debug level. What this patch does is clean this up by compressing those 4 bits into bit 31, as a result we just have to perform a check against the value being negative to determine if we are looking at a debug level (positive), or a debug mask (negative). The debug level will populate the msg_level, and the debug mask will populate the debug_mask in the hardware struct. I added similar logic for ethtool. If the value being provided has bit 31 set we assume the value being provided is a debug mask, otherwise we assume it is a msg_enable mask. For displaying we only provide the msg_enable, and if debug_mask is in use we will print it to the dmesg log. Lastly I removed the debugfs interface. It is redundant with what we already have in ethtool and really doesn't belong anyway.

In commit a75e8005 ("i40e: queue-specific settings for interrupt moderation") the i40e driver gained support for setting interrupt moderation values per queue. This patch adds support for this feature to the i40evf driver as well. In addition, a few changes are made to the i40e implementation to add function header documentation comments, as well. This behaves in a similar fashion to the implementation in i40e. Thus, requesting the moderation value when no queue is provided will report queue 0 value, while setting the value without a queue will set all queues at once.

Some locations that disable ATR accidentally used the "full" disable by disabling the flag in the standard flags field. This incorrectly forces ATR off permanently instead of temporarily disabling it. In addition, some code locations accidentally set the ATR flag enabled when they only meant to clear the auto_disable_flags. This results in ignoring the user's ethtool private flag settings. Additionally, when disabling ATR via ethtool, we did not perform a flush of the FD table. This results in the previously assigned ATR rules still functioning which was not expected. Cleanup all these areas so that automatic disable uses only the auto_disable_flag. Fix the flush code so that we can trigger a flush even when we've disabled ATR and SB support, as otherwise the flush doesn't work. Fix ethtool setting to actually request a flush. Fix NETIF_F_NTUPLE flag to only clear the auto_disable setting and not enable the full feature.

Previously, when using ethtool to change the RSS hash key, ethtool would report back saying the old key was still being used and no error was reported. It was unclear whether it was being reported incorrectly or being set incorrectly. Debugging revealed 'i40e_set_rxfh()' returned zero immediately instead of setting the key because a user defined indirection table is not supplied when changing the hash key. This fix instead changes it such that if an indirection table is not supplied, then a default one is created and the hash key is now correctly set.

If a driver is unable to maintain all current user supplied settings from ethtool (or other sources), it is not ok for a user request to succeed and silently trample over previous configuration. To that end, if you change the number of channels, it must not be allowed to reduce the number of channels (queues) below the current flow director filter rules targets. In this case, return -EINVAL when a request to reduce the number of channels would do so. In addition log a warning to the kernel buffer explaining why we failed, and report the rules which prevent us from lowering the number of channels.

This patch adds priv-flag knob to configure global true promisc support. With this patch the user can decide the flavor of promiscuous that the VFs will see when promiscuous mode is enabled on the interface. Since this a global setting for the whole device, the priv-flag is exposed only on the first PF of the device. The default is true promisc support is off, which means the promisc mode for the VF will be limited/defport mode. For the PF, we still will be in limited promisc unless in MFP mode irrespective of the flavor picked through this knob. Usage: On PF0 ethtool --show-priv-flags p261p1 Private flags for p261p1: MFP : off LinkPolling : off flow-director-atr : on veb-stats : off hw-atr-eviction : off vf-true-promisc-support: off to enable setting true promisc ethtool --set-priv-flags p261p1 vf-true-promisc-support on At this point if the VF is set to trust and promisc is enabled on the VF through ip link set ... promisc on The VF/VFs will be able to see ALL ingress traffic Change-Id: I8fac4b6eb1af9ca77b5376b79c50bdce5055bd94 Signed-off-by: NAnjali Singhai Jain <anjali.singhai@intel.com> Tested-by: NAndrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

When testing on systems with very limited amounts of RAM, a bug was found where, while changing the number of descriptors using ethtool, the driver didn't test the limits of system memory before permanently assuming it would be able to get receive buffer memory. Work around this issue by pre-allocation of the receive buffer memory, in the "ghost" ring, which is then used during reinit using the new ring length.

This is part 1 of the Rx refactor series, just including changes to i40e. This refactor aligns the receive routine with the one in ixgbe which was highly optimized. This reduces the code we have to maintain and allows for (hopefully) more readable and maintainable RX hot path. In order to do this: - consolidate the receive path into a single function that doesn't use packet split but *does* use pages for Rx buffers. - remove the old _1buf routine - consolidate several routines into helper functions - remove ethtool control over packet split Change-ID: I5ca100721de65992aa0114f8b4bac844b84758e0 Signed-off-by: NJesse Brandeburg <jesse.brandeburg@intel.com> Tested-by: NAndrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: NJeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

For i40e driver, each vector has its own ITR register. However, there are no concept of queue-specific settings in the driver proper. Only global variable is used to store ITR values. That will cause problems especially when resetting the vector. The specific ITR values could be lost. This patch move rx_itr_setting and tx_itr_setting to i40e_ring to store specific ITR register for each queue. i40e_get_coalesce and i40e_set_coalesce are also modified accordingly to support queue-specific settings. To make it compatible with old ethtool, if user doesn't specify the queue number, i40e_get_coalesce will return queue 0's value. While i40e_set_coalesce will apply value to all queues.

Ethtool priv flags implementation to enable or disable packet split, which is a hardware feature that inspects headers and will put headers in a separate DMA buffer from the payload data. The driver was automatically choosing to enable packet split in some cases and this gives the user the ability to turn it off/on explicitly. to query state: ethtool --show-priv-flags ethx to enable: ethtool --set-priv-flags ethx packet-split on to disable: ethtool --set-priv-flags ethx packet-split off Why would anyone want this? Because some environments benefit from header/data split in the receive buffer, and the driver defaults to one or the other depending on environment/kernel parameters. Why didn't you implement a generic ethtool control for this feature? Because Intel hardware is the only hardware that supports header/data split.
