The r8169 driver currently limits the DMA burst for TX to 1024 bytes. I have a box where this prevents the interface from using the gigabit line to its full potential. This patch solves the problem by setting TX_DMA_BURST to unlimited. The box has an ASRock B75M motherboard with on-board RTL8168evl/8111evl (XID 0c900880). TSO is enabled. I used netperf (TCP_STREAM test) to measure the dependency of TX throughput on MTU. I did it for three different values of TX_DMA_BURST ('5'=512, '6'=1024, '7'=unlimited). This chart shows the results: http://michich.fedorapeople.org/r8169/r8169-effects-of-TX_DMA_BURST.png Interesting points: - With the current DMA burst limit (1024): - at the default MTU=1500 I get only 842 Mbit/s. - when going from small MTU, the performance rises monotonically with increasing MTU only up to a peak at MTU=1076 (908 MBit/s). Then there's a sudden drop to 762 MBit/s from which the throughput rises monotonically again with further MTU increases. - With a smaller DMA burst limit (512): - there's a similar peak at MTU=1076 and another one at MTU=564. - With unlimited DMA burst: - at the default MTU=1500 I get nice 940 Mbit/s. - the throughput rises monotonically with increasing MTU with no strange peaks. Notice that the peaks occur at MTU sizes that are multiples of the DMA burst limit plus 52. Why 52? Because: 20 (IP header) + 20 (TCP header) + 12 (TCP options) = 52 The Realtek-provided r8168 driver (v8.032.00) uses unlimited TX DMA burst too, except for CFG_METHOD_1 where the TX DMA burst is set to 512 bytes. CFG_METHOD_1 appears to be the oldest MAC version of "RTL8168B/8111B", i.e. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 in r8169. Not sure if this MAC version really needs the smaller burst limit, or if any other versions have similar requirements.

MCDI supports requests up to 252 bytes long, which is only enough to pass 63 RX queue IDs to MC_CMD_FLUSH_RX_QUEUES. However a VF may have up to 64 RX queues, and if we try to flush them all we will generate an over-length request and BUG() in efx_mcdi_copyin(). Currently all VF drivers limit themselves to 32 RX queues, so reducing the limit to 63 does no harm. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON in efx_mcdi_flush_rxqs() so we remember to deal with the same problem there if EFX_MAX_CHANNELS is increased. Signed-off-by: NBen Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

The PF was not correctly registering any of its VLANs. As a result any VLAN tagged traffic from the VF would not be delivered to the PF because the VLAN was never assigned to the PF pool.

This fixes a hang on suspend due to calling wdm_suspend on the unregistered data interface. The hang should have been a NULL pointer reference had it not been for a logic error in the cdc_wdm code. commit 230718bd net: qmi_wwan: bind to both control and data interface changed qmi_wwan to use cdc_wdm as a subdriver for devices with a two-interface QMI/wwan function. The commit failed to update qmi_wwan_suspend and qmi_wwan_resume, which were written to handle either a single combined interface function, or no subdriver at all. The result was that we called into the subdriver both when the control interface was suspended and when the data interface was suspended. Calling the subdriver suspend function with an unregistered interface is not supported and will make the subdriver bug out. Signed-off-by: NBjørn Mork <bjorn@mork.no> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Various flows in the bnx2x driver cause a link-flap - if the link is up, it would be toggled down (after a mac/phy reset) and then taken back up. In many of these cases, there is no need to do cause such a flap, as the associated flows should not actually affect the link. This patch adds the 'Link Flap Avoidance' mechanism, which allows the driver to better determine if a given flow requires a link change, and thus minimize the number of link flaps caused by the driver.
