Merge tag 'wireless-drivers-next-for-davem-2017-06-25' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/kvalo/wireless-drivers-next Kalle Valo says: ==================== wireless-drivers-next patches for 4.13 New features and bug fixes to quite a few different drivers, but nothing really special standing out. What makes me happy that we have now more vendors actively contributing to upstream drivers. In this pull request we have patches from Broadcom, Intel, Qualcomm, Realtek and Redpine Signals, and I still have patches from Marvell and Quantenna pending in patchwork. Now that's something comparing to how things looked 11 years ago in Jeff Garzik's "State of the Union: Wireless" email: https://lkml.org/lkml/2006/1/5/671 Major changes: wil6210 * add low level RF sector interface via nl80211 vendor commands * add module parameter ftm_mode to load separate firmware for factory testing * support devices with different PCIe bar size * add support for PCIe D3hot in system suspend * remove ioctl interface which should not be in a wireless driver ath10k * go back to using dma_alloc_coherent() for firmware scratch memory * add per chain RSSI reporting brcmfmac * add support multi-scheduled scan * add scheduled scan support for specified BSSIDs * add support for brcm43430 revision 0 wlcore * add wil1285 compatible rsi * add RS9113 USB support iwlwifi * FW API documentation improvements (for tools and htmldoc) * continuing work for the new A000 family * bump the maximum supported FW API to 31 * improve the differentiation between 8000, 9000 and A000 families ==================== Signed-off-by:

Marcelo Ricardo Leitner says: ==================== sctp: RFC 4960 Errata fixes This patchset contains fixes for 4 Errata topics from https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-tsvwg-rfc4960-errata-01 Namely, sections: 3.12. Order of Adjustments of partial_bytes_acked and cwnd 3.22. Increase of partial_bytes_acked in Congestion Avoidance 3.26. CWND Increase in Congestion Avoidance Phase 3.27. Refresh of cwnd and ssthresh after Idle Period Tests performed with netperf using net namespaces, with drop rates at 0%, 0.5% and 1% by netem, IPv4 and IPv6, 10 runs for each combination. I couldn't spot differences on the stats. With and without these patches the results vary in a similar way in terms of throughput and retransmissions. Tests with 20ms delay and 20ms delay + drops at 0.5% and 1% also had results in a similar way, no noticeable difference. Looking at cwnd, it was possible to notice slightly lower values being used while still sustaining same throughput profile. ==================== Signed-off-by:

RFC 4960 Errata 3.27 identifies that ssthresh should be adjusted to cwnd because otherwise it could cause the transport to lock into congestion avoidance phase specially if ssthresh was previously reduced by some packet drop, leading to poor performance. The Errata says to adjust ssthresh to cwnd only once, though the same goal is achieved by updating it every time we update cwnd too. The caveat is that we could take longer to get back up to speed but that should be compensated by the fact that we don't adjust on RTO basis (as RFC says) but based on Heartbeats, which are usually way longer.

RFC4960 Errata 3.26 identified that at the same time RFC4960 states that cwnd should never grow more than 1*MTU per RTT, Section 7.2.2 was underspecified and as described could allow increasing cwnd more than that. This patch updates it so partial_bytes_acked is maxed to cwnd if flight_size doesn't reach cwnd, protecting it from such case.

As per RFC4960 Errata 3.22, this condition is not needed anymore as it could cause the partial_bytes_acked to not consider the TSNs acked in the Gap Ack Blocks although they were received by the peer successfully. This patch thus drops the check for new Cumulative TSN Ack Point, leaving just the flight_size < cwnd one.

RFC4960 Errata 3.12 says RFC4960 is unclear about the order of adjustments applied to partial_bytes_acked and cwnd in the congestion avoidance phase, and that the actual order should be: partial_bytes_acked is reset to (partial_bytes_acked - cwnd). Next, cwnd is increased by MTU. We were first increasing cwnd, and then subtracting the new value pba, which leads to a different result as pba is smaller than what it should and could cause cwnd to not grow as much.

Verify that the caller-provided sockaddr structure is large enough to contain the sa_family field, before accessing it in bind() and connect() handlers of the AF_IUCV socket. Since neither syscall enforces a minimum size of the corresponding memory region, very short sockaddrs (zero or one byte long) result in operating on uninitialized memory while referencing .sa_family.

Simon Horman says: ==================== nfp: add flower app with representors this series adds a flower app to the NFP driver. It initialises four types of netdevs: * PF netdev - lower-device for communication of packets to device * PF representor netdev * VF representor netdevs * Phys port representor netdevs The PF netdev acts as a lower-device which sends and receives packets to and from the firmware. The representors act as upper-devices. For TX representors attach a metadata dst to the skb which is used by the PF netdev to prepend metadata to the packet before forwarding the firmware. On RX the PF netdev looks up the representor based on the prepended metadata received from the firmware and forwards the skb to the representor after removing the metadata. Control queues are used to send and receive control messages which are used to communicate configuration information with the firmware. These are in separate vNIC to the queues belonging to the PF netdev. The control queues are not exposed to use-space via a netdev or any other means. The first 9 patches of this series provide app-independent infrastructure to instantiate representors and the remaining 3 patches provide an app which uses this infrastructure. As the name implies this app is targeted at providing offload of TC flower. Flower offload - allowing classifiers to be attached to representor netdevs - is intended to be provided by follow-up patches at which point it will become the dominant feature of the app. Minor changes since v2 noted in changelogs of individual patches. Review of v1 and v2 of this patchset have been addressed either through discussion on-list or changes in this patchset. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Switches and modern SR-IOV enabled NICs may multiplex traffic from Port representators and control messages over single set of hardware queues. Control messages and muxed traffic may need ordered delivery. Those requirements make it hard to comfortably use TC infrastructure today unless we have a way of attaching metadata to skbs at the upper device. Because single set of queues is used for many netdevs stopping TC/sched queues of all of them reliably is impossible and lower device has to retreat to returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY and usually has to take extra locks on the fastpath. This patch attempts to enable port/representative devs to attach metadata to skbs which carry port id. This way representatives can be queueless and all queuing can be performed at the lower netdev in the usual way. Traffic arriving on the port/representative interfaces will be have metadata attached and will subsequently be queued to the lower device for transmission. The lower device should recognize the metadata and translate it to HW specific format which is most likely either a special header inserted before the network headers or descriptor/metadata fields. Metadata is associated with the lower device by storing the netdev pointer along with port id so that if TC decides to redirect or mirror the new netdev will not try to interpret it. This is mostly for SR-IOV devices since switches don't have lower netdevs today. Signed-off-by:

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-updates-2017-06-23 This series provides some updates to the mlx5 core and netdevice drivers. Three patches from Tariq, Introduces page reuse mechanism in non-Striding RQ RX datapath, we allow the the RX descriptor to reuse its allocated page as much as it could, until the page is fully consumed. RX page reuse reduces the stress on page allocator and improves RX performance especially with high speeds (100Gb/s). Next four patches of the series from Or allows to offload tc flower matching on ttl/hoplimit and header re-write of hoplimit. The rest of the series from Yotam and Or enhances mlx5 to support FW flashing through the mlxfw module, in a similar manner done by the mlxsw driver. Currently, only ethtool based flashing is implemented, where both Eth and IB ports are supported. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

We were using t4_get_mps_bg_map() for both t4_get_port_stats() to determine which MPS Buffer Groups to report statistics on for a given Port, and also for t4_sge_alloc_rxq() to provide a TP Ingress Channel Congestion Map. For T4/T5 these are actually the same values (because they are ~somewhat~ related), but for T6 they should return different values (T6 has Port 0 associated with MPS Buffer Group 0 (with MPS Buffer Group 1 silently cascading off) and Port 1 is associated with MPS Buffer Group 2 (with 3 cascading off)).
