Add support for an MDIO bus multiplexer controlled by a simple memory-mapped device, like an FPGA. The device must be memory-mapped and contain only 8-bit registers (which keeps things simple). Tested on a Freescale P5020DS board which uses the "PIXIS" FPGA attached to the localbus. Signed-off-by: NTimur Tabi <timur@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

This patch cleans up the way device tree support is added in mdio-gpio driver. I found lot of code duplication which is not necessary. Also strangely a new platform driver was also introduced for device tree support. All this forced me to do this cleanup patch. After this patch, the driver probe checks the of_node pointer to get the data from device tree. Signed-off-by: NSrinivas Kandagatla <srinivas.kandagatla@st.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

When moving a net device from one net namespace to another net namespace,dev_change_net_namespace calls NETDEV_DOWN event,so the original net namespace's dst entries which beloned to this net device will be put into dst_garbage list. then dev_change_net_namespace will set this net device's net to the new net namespace. If we unregister this net device's driver, this will trigger the NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event, dst_ifdown will be called, and get this net device's dst entries from dst_garbage list, put these entries' dev to the new net namespace's lo device. It's not what we want,actually we need these dst entries hold the original net namespace's lo device,this incorrect device holding will trigger emg message like below. unregister_netdevice: waiting for lo to become free. Usage count = 1 so we should call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event in dev_change_net_namespace too,in order to make sure dst entries already in the dst_garbage list, we need rcu_barrier before we call NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL event.

RX DMA is limited by the length specified in each descriptor and not by the MAC.

We try to defer resets while the device is not READY, but we're not doing this quite correctly. In particular, changes to efx_nic::state are documented as serialised by the RTNL lock, but they aren't. 1. We check whether a reset was requested during probe (suggesting broken hardware) before we allow requested resets to be scheduled. This leaves a window where a requested reset would be deferred indefinitely. 2. Although we cancel the reset work item during device removal, there are still later operations that can cause it to be scheduled again. We need to check the state before scheduling it. 3. Since the state can change between scheduling and running of the work item, we still need to check it there, and we need to do so *after* acquiring the RTNL lock which serialises state changes. 4. We must cancel the reset work item during device removal, if the state could ever have been READY. This wasn't done in some of the failure paths from efx_pci_probe(). Move the cancellation to efx_pci_remove_main(). Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

efx_change_mtu() and efx_realloc_channels() each stop and start much of the NIC, even if it has been disabled. Since efx_start_all() is a no-op when the NIC is disabled, this is probably harmless in the case of efx_change_mtu(), but efx_realloc_channels() also reenables interrupts which could be a bad thing to do. Change efx_start_all() and efx_start_interrupts() to assert that the NIC is not disabled, but make efx_stop_interrupts() do nothing if the NIC is disabled (since it is already stopped), consistent with efx_stop_all(). Update comments for efx_start_all() and efx_stop_all() to describe their purpose and preconditions more accurately. Add a common function to check and log if the NIC is disabled, and use it in efx_net_open(), efx_change_mtu() and efx_realloc_channels(). Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

STATE_INIT and STATE_FINI are equivalent and represent incompletely initialised states; combine them as STATE_UNINIT. Rename STATE_RUNNING to STATE_READY, to avoid confusion with netif_running() and IFF_RUNNING. The comments do not quite match current usage, but this will be corrected in subsequent fixes.

We only use tso_state::full_packet_space to calculate the IPv4 tot_len or IPv6 payload_len, not to set tso_state::packet_space. Replace it with an ip_base_len field holding the value of tot_len or payload_len before including the TCP payload, which is much more useful when constructing the new headers.

TSO header buffers contain a control structure immediately followed by the packet headers, and are kept on a free list when not in use. This complicates buffer management and tends to result in cache read misses when we recycle such buffers (particularly if DMA-coherent memory requires caches to be disabled). Replace the free list with a simple mapping by descriptor index. We know that there is always a payload descriptor between any two descriptors with TSO header buffers, so we can allocate only one such buffer for each two descriptors. While we're at it, use a standard error code for allocation failure, not -1. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

Add a flags field to struct efx_tx_buffer, replacing the continuation and map_single booleans.

The operstate of a device is initially IF_OPER_UNKNOWN and is updated asynchronously by linkwatch after each change of carrier state reported by the driver. The default carrier state of a net device is on, and this will never be changed on drivers that do not support carrier detection, thus the operstate remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN. For devices that do support carrier detection, the driver must set the carrier state to off initially, then poll the hardware state when the device is opened. However, we must not activate linkwatch for a unregistered device, and commit b4730016 ('net: Do not fire linkwatch events until the device is registered.') ensured that we don't. But this means that the operstate for many devices that support carrier detection remains IF_OPER_UNKNOWN when it should be IF_OPER_DOWN. The same issue exists with the dormant state. The proper initialisation sequence, avoiding a race with opening of the device, is: rtnl_lock(); rc = register_netdevice(dev); if (rc) goto out_unlock; netif_carrier_off(dev); /* or netif_dormant_on(dev) */ rtnl_unlock(); but it seems silly that this should have to be repeated in so many drivers. Further, the operstate seen immediately after opening the device may still be IF_OPER_UNKNOWN due to the asynchronous nature of linkwatch. Commit 22604c86 ('net: Fix for initial link state in 2.6.28') attempted to fix this by setting the operstate synchronously, but it was reverted as it could lead to deadlock. This initialises the operstate synchronously at registration time only. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The network classifier cgroup initalizes each cgroups instance classid value to 0. However, the sock_update_classid function only updates classid's in sockets if the tasks cgroup classid is not zero, and if it differs from the current classid. The later check is to prevent cache line dirtying, but the former is detrimental, as it prevents resetting a classid for a cgroup to 0. While this is not a common action, it has administrative usefulness (if the admin wants to disable classification of a certain group temporarily for instance). Easy fix, just remove the zero check.
