Since commit 3c47d19f ("drivers: base: add coredump driver ops") it is possible to initiate a device coredump from user-space. This patch adds support for it in btmrvl_sdio adding the .coredump() driver callback. This makes dump through debugfs obsolete so removing it.

In commit f44cb4b1 ("Bluetooth: btusb: Fix quirk for Atheros 1525/QCA6174") we tried to address the non-working Atheros BT devices by changing the quirk from BTUSB_ATH3012 to BTUSB_QCA_ROME. This made such devices working while it turned out to break other existing chips with the very same USB ID, hence it was reverted afterwards. This is another attempt to tackle the issue. The essential point to use BTUSB_QCA_ROME is to apply the btusb_setup_qca() and do RAM- patching. And the previous attempt failed because btusb_setup_qca() returns -ENODEV if the ROM version doesn't match with the expected ones. For some devices that have already the "correct" ROM versions, we may just skip the setup procedure and continue the rest. So, the first fix we'll need is to add a check of the ROM version in the function to skip the setup if the ROM version looks already sane, so that it can be applied for all ath devices. However, the world is a bit more complex than that simple solution. Since BTUSB_ATH3012 quirk checks the bcdDevice and bails out when it's 0x0001 at the beginning of probing, so the device probe always aborts here. In this patch, we add another check of ROM version again, and if the device needs patching, the probe continues. For that, a slight refactoring of btusb_qca_send_vendor_req() was required so that the probe function can pass usb_device pointer directly before allocating hci_dev stuff.

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5e-updates-2018-05-25 This series includes updates for mlx5e netdev driver. 1) Allowr flow based VF vport mirroring under sriov switchdev scheme, added support for offloading the TC mirred mirror sub-action, from Chris Mi. ================= From: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@mellanox.com> The user will typically set the actions order such that the mirror port (mirror VF) sees packets as the original port (VF under mirroring) sent them or as it will receive them. In the general case, it means that packets are potentially sent to the mirror port before or after some actions were applied on them. To properly do that, we follow on the exact action order as set for the flow and make sure this will also be the case when we program the HW offload. If all the actions should apply before forwarding to the mirror and dest port, mirroring is just multicasting to the two vports. Otherwise, we split the TC flow to two HW rules, where the 1st applies only the actions needed up to the mirror (if there are such) and the 2nd the rest of the actions plus the forwarding to the dest vport. ================= 2) Move to order-0 only allocations (using fragmented work queues) for all work queues used by the driver, RX and TX descriptor rings (RQs, SQs and Completion Queues (CQs)), from Tariq Toukan. 3) Avoid resetting netdevice statistics on netdevice state changes, from Eran Ben Elisha. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

bpfilter_process_sockopt is a callback that gets called from ip_setsockopt() and ip_getsockopt(). However, when CONFIG_INET is disabled, it never gets called at all, and assigning a function to the callback pointer results in a link failure: net/bpfilter/bpfilter_kern.o: In function `__stop_umh': bpfilter_kern.c:(.text.unlikely+0x3): undefined reference to `bpfilter_process_sockopt' net/bpfilter/bpfilter_kern.o: In function `load_umh': bpfilter_kern.c:(.init.text+0x73): undefined reference to `bpfilter_process_sockopt' Since there is no caller in this configuration, I assume we can simply make the assignment conditional.

Now, the firmware takes responsibility to handle the led, the dirver just needs to deal with locate command. So the codes for link led, traffic led and speed led are useless now.

When we down the port, some packets are left in TX/RX buffer. When we up the port again, these old packets are forwarded to protocol stack or are sent to internet. It will make some problem. TX/RX buffer should be cleared when stopping port. This patch adds some function to ensure the buffer is clean when port is started. We should clear the rings when clients are being un-initialized as well.

The struct Qdisc has a lot of holes, especially after commit a53851e2 ("net: sched: explicit locking in gso_cpu fallback"), which as a side effect, moved the fields just after 'busylock' on a new cacheline. Since both 'padded' and 'refcnt' are not updated frequently, and there is a hole before 'gso_skb', we can move such fields there, saving a cacheline without any performance side effect.

SIMCOM are reusing a single device ID for many (all of their?) different modems, based on different chipsets and firmwares. Newer Qualcomm chipset generations require setting DTR to wake the QMI function. The SIM7600E modem is using such a chipset, making it fail to work with this driver despite the device ID match. Fix by unconditionally enabling the SET_DTR quirk for all SIMCOM modems using this specific device ID. This is similar to what we already have done for another case of device IDs recycled over multiple chipset generations: 14cf4a77 ("drivers: net: usb: qmi_wwan: add QMI_QUIRK_SET_DTR for Telit PID 0x1201") Initial testing on an older SIM7100 modem shows no immediate side effects.

Sridhar Samudrala says: ==================== Enable virtio_net to act as a standby for a passthru device The main motivation for this patch is to enable cloud service providers to provide an accelerated datapath to virtio-net enabled VMs in a transparent manner with no/minimal guest userspace changes. This also enables hypervisor controlled live migration to be supported with VMs that have direct attached SR-IOV VF devices. Patch 1 introduces a failover module that provides a generic interface for paravirtual drivers to listen for netdev register/unregister/link change events from pci ethernet devices with the same MAC and takeover their datapath. The notifier and event handling code is based on the existing netvsc implementation. Patch 2 refactors netvsc to use the registration/notification framework introduced by failover module. Patch 3 introduces a net_failover driver that provides an automated failover mechanism to paravirtual drivers via APIs to create and destroy a failover master netdev and mananges a primary and standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover infrastructure. Patch 4 introduces a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_STANDBY to virtio-net that can be used by hypervisor to indicate that virtio_net interface should act as a standby for another device with the same MAC address. Patch 5 extends virtio_net to use alternate datapath when available and registered. When STANDBY feature is enabled, virtio_net driver uese the net_failover API to create an additional 'failover' netdev that acts as a master device and controls 2 slave devices. The original virtio_net netdev is registered as 'standby' netdev and a passthru/vf device with the same MAC gets registered as 'primary' netdev. Both 'standby' and 'failover' netdevs are associated with the same 'pci' device. The user accesses the network interface via 'failover' netdev. The 'failover' netdev chooses 'primary' netdev as default for transmits when it is available with link up and running. As this patch series is initially focusing on usecases where hypervisor fully controls the VM networking and the guest is not expected to directly configure any hardware settings, it doesn't expose all the ndo/ethtool ops that are supported by virtio_net at this time. To support additional usecases, it should be possible to enable additional ops later by caching the state in failover netdev and replaying when the 'primary' netdev gets registered. At the time of live migration, the hypervisor needs to unplug the VF device from the guest on the source host and reset the MAC filter of the VF to initiate failover of datapath to virtio before starting the migration. After the migration is completed, the destination hypervisor sets the MAC filter on the VF and plugs it back to the guest to switch over to VF datapath. This patch is based on the discussion initiated by Jesse on this thread. https://marc.info/?l=linux-virtualization&m=151189725224231&w=2 v12: - Tested live migration with virtio-net/AVF(i40evf) configured in failover mode while running iperf in background. Tried static ip and dhcp configurations using 'network' scripts and Network Manager. - Build tested netvsc module. Updates: - Extended generic failover module to do common functions like setting FAILOVER_SLAVE flag, registering rx-handler and linking to upper dev in the generic register/unregister handlers. This required adding 3 additional failover ops pre_register, pre_unregister and handle_frame. netvsc and net_failover drivers are updated to support these ops. v11: - Split net_failover module into 2 components. 1. 'failover' module that provides generic failover infrastructure to register a failover instance and listen for slave events. 2. 'net_failover' driver that provides APIs to create/destroy upper netdev and supports 3-netdev model used by virtio-net. - Added documentation v10: - fix net_failover_open() to update failover CARRIER correctly based on standby and primary states. - fix net_failover_handle_frame() to handle frames received on standby when primary is present. - replace netdev_upper_dev_link with netdev_master_upper_dev_link and handle lower dev state changes. - fix net_failver_create() and net_failover_register() interfaces to use ERR_PTR and avoid arg ** - disable setting mac address when virtio-net in STANDBY mode - document exported symbols - added entry to MAINTAINERS file v9: Select NET_FAILOVER automatically when VIRTIO_NET/HYPERV_NET are enabled. (stephen) v8: - Made the failover managment routines more robust by updating the feature bits/other fields in the failover netdev when slave netdevs are registered/unregistered. (mst) - added support for handling vlans. - Limited the changes in netvsc to only use the notifier/event/lookups from the failover module. The slave register/unregister/link-change handlers are only updated to use the getbymac routine to get the upper netdev. There is no change in their functionality. (stephen) - renamed structs/function/file names to use net_failover prefix. (mst) v7 - Rename 'bypass/active/backup' terminology with 'failover/primary/standy' (jiri, mst) - re-arranged dev_open() and dev_set_mtu() calls in the register routines so that they don't get called for 2-netdev model. (stephen) - fixed select_queue() routine to do queue selection based on VF if it is registered as primary. (stephen) - minor bugfixes v6 RFC: Simplified virtio_net changes by moving all the ndo_ops of the bypass_netdev and create/destroy of bypass_netdev to 'bypass' module. avoided 2 phase registration(driver + instances). introduced IFF_BYPASS/IFF_BYPASS_SLAVE dev->priv_flags replaced mutex with a spinlock v5 RFC: Based on Jiri's comments, moved the common functionality to a 'bypass' module so that the same notifier and event handlers to handle child register/unregister/link change events can be shared between virtio_net and netvsc. Improved error handling based on Siwei's comments. v4: - Based on the review comments on the v3 version of the RFC patch and Jakub's suggestion for the naming issue with 3 netdev solution, proposed 3 netdev in-driver bonding solution for virtio-net. v3 RFC: - Introduced 3 netdev model and pointed out a couple of issues with that model and proposed 2 netdev model to avoid these issues. - Removed broadcast/multicast optimization and only use virtio as backup path when VF is unplugged. v2 RFC: - Changed VIRTIO_NET_F_MASTER to VIRTIO_NET_F_BACKUP (mst) - made a small change to the virtio-net xmit path to only use VF datapath for unicasts. Broadcasts/multicasts use virtio datapath. This avoids east-west broadcasts to go over the PCI link. - added suppport for the feature bit in qemu ==================== Acked-by: Michael S.

This patch enables virtio_net to switch over to a VF datapath when STANDBY feature is enabled and a VF netdev is present with the same MAC address. It allows live migration of a VM with a direct attached VF without the need to setup a bond/team between a VF and virtio net device in the guest. It uses the API that is exported by the net_failover driver to create and and destroy a master failover netdev. When STANDBY feature is enabled, an additional netdev(failover netdev) is created that acts as a master device and tracks the state of the 2 lower netdevs. The original virtio_net netdev is marked as 'standby' netdev and a passthru device with the same MAC is registered as 'primary' netdev. The hypervisor needs to unplug the VF device from the guest on the source host and reset the MAC filter of the VF to initiate failover of datapath to virtio before starting the migration. After the migration is completed, the destination hypervisor sets the MAC filter on the VF and plugs it back to the guest to switch over to VF datapath. This patch is based on the discussion initiated by Jesse on this thread. https://marc.info/?l=linux-virtualization&m=151189725224231&w=2Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sridhar.samudrala@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This feature bit can be used by hypervisor to indicate virtio_net device to act as a standby for another device with the same MAC address. VIRTIO_NET_F_STANDBY is defined as bit 62 as it is a device feature bit. Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sridhar.samudrala@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The net_failover driver provides an automated failover mechanism via APIs to create and destroy a failover master netdev and manages a primary and standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover infrastructure. The failover netdev acts a master device and controls 2 slave devices. The original paravirtual interface gets registered as 'standby' slave netdev and a passthru/vf device with the same MAC gets registered as 'primary' slave netdev. Both 'standby' and 'failover' netdevs are associated with the same 'pci' device. The user accesses the network interface via 'failover' netdev. The 'failover' netdev chooses 'primary' netdev as default for transmits when it is available with link up and running. This can be used by paravirtual drivers to enable an alternate low latency datapath. It also enables hypervisor controlled live migration of a VM with direct attached VF by failing over to the paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged.

The failover module provides a generic interface for paravirtual drivers to register a netdev and a set of ops with a failover instance. The ops are used as event handlers that get called to handle netdev register/ unregister/link change/name change events on slave pci ethernet devices with the same mac address as the failover netdev. This enables paravirtual drivers to use a VF as an accelerated low latency datapath. It also allows migration of VMs with direct attached VFs by failing over to the paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged.

SCTP sockets originated in a VRF can improve their performance if CRC32c computation is delegated to underlying devices: update device features, setting NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC. Iterating the following command in the topology proposed with [1], # ip vrf exec vrf-h2 netperf -H 192.0.2.1 -t SCTP_STREAM -- -m 10K the measured throughput in Mbit/s improved from 2395 ± 1% to 2720 ± 1%.

Some drivers, such as DWC EQOS on Tegra, need to perform operations that can sleep under this lock (clk_set_rate() in tegra_eqos_fix_speed()) for proper operation. Since there is no need for this lock to be a spinlock, convert it to a mutex instead.
