      sfc: Allow shared pages to be recycled · 62b330ba
      Steve Hodgson 提交于
      Insert a structure at the start of the shared page that
      tracks the dma mapping refcnt. DMA into the next cache
      line of the (shared) page (plus EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN).
      
      When recycling a page, check the page refcnt. If the
      page is otherwise unused, then resurrect the other
      receive buffer that previously referenced the page.
      Be careful not to overflow the receive ring, since we
      can now resurrect n receive buffers in a row.

      sfc: Recycle discarded rx buffers back onto the queue · 24455800
      Steve Hodgson 提交于
      The cut-through design of the receive path means that packets that
      fail to match the appropriate MAC filter are not discarded at the MAC
      but are flagged in the completion event as 'to be discarded'.  On
      networks with heavy multicast traffic, this can account for a
      significant proportion of received packets, so it is worthwhile to
      recycle the buffer immediately in this case rather than freeing it
      and then reallocating it shortly after.
      
      The only complication here is dealing with a page shared
      between two receive buffers. In that case, we need to be
      careful to free the dma mapping when both buffers have
      been free'd by the kernel. This means that we can only
      recycle such a page if both receive buffers are discarded.
      Unfortunately, in an environment with 1500mtu,
      rx_alloc_method=PAGE, and a mixture of discarded and
      not-discarded frames hitting the same receive queue,
      buffer recycling won't always be possible.

      - Pull the loop handling into efx_init_rx_buffers_(skb|page)

      sfc: Remove efx_rx_queue::add_lock · 90d683af
      Steve Hodgson 提交于
      Ensure that efx_fast_push_rx_descriptors() must only run
      from efx_process_channel() [NAPI], or when napi_disable()
      has been executed.
      
      Reimplement the slow fill by sending an event to the
      channel, so that NAPI runs, and hanging the subsequent
      fast fill off the event handler. Replace the sfc_refill
      workqueue and delayed work items with a timer. We do
      not need to stop this timer in efx_flush_all() because
      it's safe to send the event always; receiving it will
      be delayed until NAPI is restarted.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.

      sfc: Replace LRO with GRO · da3bc071
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      This patch makes sfc invoke the GRO hooks instead of LRO.  As
      GRO has a compatible external interface to LRO this is a very
      straightforward replacement.
      
      Everything should appear identical to the user except that the
      offload is now controlled by the GRO ethtool option instead of
      LRO.  I've kept the lro module parameter as is since that's for
      compatibility only.
      
      I have eliminated efx_rx_mk_skb as the GRO layer can take care
      of all packets regardless of whether GRO is enabled or not.
      
      So the only case where we don't call GRO is if the packet checksum
      is absent.  This is to keep the behaviour changes of the patch to
      a minimum.

      dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error() · 8d8bb39b
      FUJITA Tomonori 提交于
      Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER
      architecture does:
      
      This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices
      are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423).
      
      I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for
      KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it
      difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread).  So I
      CC'ed this to KVM camp.  Comments are appreciated.
      
      A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added.  If the
      pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it.  If it's
      NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before.
      
      If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register
      a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works
      with hot plugging).  It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate
      dma_mapping_ops per device.
      
      The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the
      device unlike other DMA operations.  So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per
      device.  Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function
      so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different
      dma_mapping_error functions.
      
      The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error.  The patch
      is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in
      all the architecture.
      
      This patch:
      
      dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA
      operations.  So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device.
      
      Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER
      IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function.  x86 IOMMUs use device
      argument.
