smp_mb() inside bnx2_tx_avail() is used twice in the normal bnx2_start_xmit() path (see illustration below). The full memory barrier is only necessary during race conditions with tx completion. We can speed up the tx path by replacing smp_mb() in bnx2_tx_avail() with a compiler barrier. The compiler barrier is to force the compiler to fetch the tx_prod and tx_cons from memory. In the race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int(), we have the following situation: bnx2_start_xmit() bnx2_tx_int() if (!bnx2_tx_avail()) BUG(); ... if (!bnx2_tx_avail()) netif_tx_stop_queue(); update_tx_index(); smp_mb(); smp_mb(); if (bnx2_tx_avail()) if (netif_tx_queue_stopped() && netif_tx_wake_queue(); bnx2_tx_avail()) With smp_mb() removed from bnx2_tx_avail(), we need to add smp_mb() to bnx2_start_xmit() as shown above to properly order netif_tx_stop_queue() and bnx2_tx_avail() to check the ring index. If it is not strictly ordered, the tx queue can be stopped forever. This improves performance by about 5% with 2 ports running bi-directional 64-byte packets.

This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2. bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop. But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many architectures. This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the performance drop.

The regression is caused by: commit 4327ba43 bnx2: Fix netpoll crash. If ->open() and ->close() are called multiple times, the same napi structs will be added to dev->napi_list multiple times, corrupting the dev->napi_list. This causes free_netdev() to hang during rmmod. We fix this by calling netif_napi_del() during ->close(). Also, bnx2_init_napi() must not be in the __devinit section since it is called by ->open().

Based on original patch from Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>. Using netif_carrier_off() is better than updating all the ->trans_start on all the tx queues. netif_carrier_off() needs to be called after bnx2_disable_int_sync() to guarantee no race conditions with the serdes timers that can modify the carrier state. If the chip or phy is reset, carrier will turn back on when we get the link interrupt. If there is no reset, we need to turn carrier back on in bnx2_netif_start(). Again, the phy_lock prevents race conditions with the serdes timers. Signed-off-by: NMichael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NMatt Carlson <mcarlson@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

Add prefetches of the skb and the next rx descriptor to speed up rx path. Use prefetchw() for the skb [suggested by Eric Dumazet]. The rx descriptor is in skb->data which is mapped for streaming mode DMA. Eric Dumazet pointed out that we should not prefetch the data before dma_sync. So we prefetch only if dma_sync is no_op on the system. Signed-off-by: NMichael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock. The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while changing the vlgrp. The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning. This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are changing the vlgrp. Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need to stop cnic in this case. By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop() to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.

It has been reported that under certain heavy traffic conditions in MSI-X mode, the driver can lose an MSI-X vector causing all packets in the associated rx/tx ring pair to be dropped. The problem is caused by the chip dropping the write to unmask the MSI-X vector by the kernel (when migrating the IRQ for example). This can be prevented by increasing the GRC timeout value for these register read and write operations. Thanks to Dell for helping us debug this problem.

The bnx2 driver calls netif_napi_add() for all the NAPI structs during ->probe() time but not all of them will be used if we're not in MSI-X mode. This creates a problem for netpoll since it will poll all the NAPI structs in the dev_list whether or not they are scheduled, resulting in a crash when we access structure fields not initialized for that vector. We fix it by moving the netif_napi_add() call to ->open() after the number of IRQ vectors has been determined.
