Since this array is no longer part of the bridge driver, it should have an 'eth' prefix not 'br'. We also assume that either it's 16-bit-aligned or the architecture has efficient unaligned access. Ensure the first of these is true by explicitly aligning it. Signed-off-by:

Function name should include '_ether_addr'. Return type should be bool. Parameter name should be 'addr' not 'dest' (also matching kernel-doc). Signed-off-by:

Parse the string into an array of bytes rather than ints, so we can use is_link_local() rather than reimplementing it. Signed-off-by:

This was missed in commit a24006ed ('ptp: Enable clock drivers along with associated net/PHY drivers') which enabled sfc's clock driver unconditionally. Reported-by:

It seems that to avoid deadlocks it is enough to poll vq before we are going to use the last buffer. This is faster than c70aa540. Signed-off-by:

Even when vhost-net is in zero-copy transmit mode, net core might still decide to copy the skb later which is somewhat slower than a copy in user context: data copy overhead is added to the cost of page pin/unpin. The result is that enabling tx zero copy option leads to higher CPU utilization for guest to guest and guest to host traffic. To fix this, suppress zero copy tx after a given number of packets triggered late data copy. Re-enable periodically to detect workload changes. Signed-off-by:

When tun transmits a zero copy skb, it orphans the frags which might need to allocate extra memory, in atomic context. If that fails, notify ubufs callback before freeing the skb as a hint that device should disable zerocopy mode. Signed-off-by:
-
Michael S. Tsirkin authored
Orphaning frags for zero copy skbs needs to allocate data in atomic context so is has a chance to fail. If it does we currently discard the skb which is safe, but we don't report anything to the caller, so it can not recover by e.g. disabling zero copy. Add an API to free skb reporting such errors: this is used by tun in case orphaning frags fails. Signed-off-by:

Even if skb is marked for zero copy, net core might still decide to copy it later which is somewhat slower than a copy in user context: besides copying the data we need to pin/unpin the pages. Add a parameter reporting such cases through zero copy callback: if this happens a lot, device can take this into account and switch to copying in user context. This patch updates all users but ignores the passed value for now: it will be used by follow-up patches. Signed-off-by:

This patch adds a driver for the FEC(MX6) that offers time stamping and a PTP haderware clock. Because FEC\ENET(MX6) hardware frequency adjustment is complex, we have implemented this in software by changing the multiplication factor of the timecounter. Signed-off-by:

Make the ethernet frame payload word-aligned, possibly making the memcpy into the skb a bit faster. This will be even more important after we eliminate the copy altogether. Also eliminate the redundant RX_OFFSET constant -- it has the same definition and purpose as NET_IP_ALIGN. Signed-off-by:

Handle all TX errors, not only underruns. TX error management is deferred to a dedicated workqueue. Reinitialize the TX ring after treating all remaining frames, and restart the controller when everything has been cleaned up properly. Napi is not stopped during this task as the driver only handles napi for RX for now. With this sequence, we do not need a special check during the xmit method as the packets will be caught by TX disable during workqueue execution. Signed-off-by:

Instead of masking head and tail every time we increment them, just let them wrap through UINT_MAX and mask them when subscripting. Add simple accessor functions to do the subscripting properly to minimize the chances of messing this up. This makes the code slightly smaller, and hopefully faster as well. Also, doing the ring buffer management this way will simplify things a lot when making the ring sizes configurable in the future.
