Commit 0b8e3c4c ("ath10k: move cal data len to hw_params") broke retrieving the calibration data from cal_data debugfs file. The length of file was always zero. The reason is: static ssize_t ath10k_debug_cal_data_read(struct file *file, char __user *user_buf, size_t count, loff_t *ppos) { struct ath10k *ar = file->private_data; void *buf = file->private_data; This is obviously bogus, private_data cannot contain both struct ath10k and the buffer. Fix it by caching calibration data to ar->debug.cal_data. This also allows it to be accessed when the device is not active (interface is down). The cal_data buffer is fixed size because during the first firmware probe we don't yet know what will be the lenght of the calibration data. It was simplest just to use a fixed length. There's a WARN_ON() in ath10k_debug_cal_data_fetch() if the buffer is too small. Tested with qca988x and firmware 10.2.4.70.56.

In commit d86e6476 ("rtlwifi: rtl818x: constify local structures"), the configuration struct for most of the drivers was changed to be constant. The problem is that five of the modified drivers need to be able to update the firmware name based on the exact model of the card. As the file names were stored in one of the members of that struct, these drivers would fail with a kernel BUG splat when they tried to update the firmware name. Rather than reverting the previous commit, I used a suggestion by Johannes Berg and made the firmware file name pointers be local to the routines that update the software variables. The configuration struct of rtl8192cu, which was not touched in the previous patch, is now constantfied.

The 8192eu suffered from two issues when reloading the driver. The same problems as with the 8723bu where REG_RX_WAIT_CCA bits 22 and 23 didn't get set in rtl8192e_enable_rf(). In addition it also seems prone to issues when setting REG_RF_CTRL to 0 intead of just disabling the RF_ENABLE bit. Similar to what was causing issues with the 8188eu. With this patch I can successfully reload the driver and reassociate to an APi with an 8192eu dongle.

A device running without RX package aggregation could return more data in the USB packet than the actual network packet. In this case we could would clone the skb but then determine that that there was no packet to handle and exit without freeing the cloned skb first. This has so far only been observed with 8188eu devices, but could affect others.

The atomic operations are removed. The NCSI's lock should be taken when reading or updating its state and chained state. * Channel ID (0x1f) is the reserved one and it cannot be valid channel ID. So we needn't try to probe channel whose ID is 0x1f. PATCH[2/8] and PATCH[3/8] are addressing this issue. * The request IDs are assigned in round-robin fashion, but it's broken. PATCH[4/8] make it work. * PATCH[5/8] and PATCH[6/8] reworks the channel monitoring to improve the code readability and its robustness. * PATCH[7/8] and PATCH[8/8] introduces ncsi_stop_dev() so that the network device can be closed and opened afterwards.

The original NCSI channel monitoring was implemented based on a backoff algorithm: the GLS response should be received in the specified interval. Otherwise, the channel is regarded as dead and failover should be taken if current channel is an active one. There are several problems in the implementation: (A) On BCM5718, we found when the IID (Instance ID) in the GLS command packet changes from 255 to 1, the response corresponding to IID#1 never comes in. It means we cannot make the unfair judgement that the channel is dead when one response is missed. (B) The code's readability should be improved. (C) We should do failover when current channel is active one and the channel monitoring should be marked as disabled before doing failover. This reworks the channel monitoring to address all above issues. The fields for channel monitoring is put into separate struct and the state of channel monitoring is predefined. The channel is regarded alive if the network controller responses to one of two GLS commands or both of them in 5 seconds.

There is only one NCSI request property for now: the response for the sent command need drive the workqueue or not. So we had one field (@driven) for the purpose. We lost the flexibility to extend NCSI request properties. This replaces @driven with @flags and @req_flags in NCSI request and NCSI command argument struct. Each bit of the newly introduced field can be used for one property. No functional changes introduced.

The NCSI request index (struct ncsi_request::id) is put into instance ID (IID) field while sending NCSI command packet. It was designed the available IDs are given in round-robin fashion. @ndp->request_id was introduced to represent the next available ID, but it has been used as number of successively allocated IDs. It breaks the round-robin design. Besides, we shouldn't put 0 to NCSI command packet's IID field, meaning ID#0 should be reserved according section 6.3.1.1 in NCSI spec (v1.1.0). This fixes above two issues. With it applied, the available IDs will be assigned in round-robin fashion and ID#0 won't be assigned.

This is a respin of a patch to fix a relatively easily reproducible kernel panic related to the all_adj_list handling for netdevs in recent kernels. The following sequence of commands will reproduce the issue: ip link add link eth0 name eth0.100 type vlan id 100 ip link add link eth0 name eth0.200 type vlan id 200 ip link add name testbr type bridge ip link set eth0.100 master testbr ip link set eth0.200 master testbr ip link add link testbr mac0 type macvlan ip link delete dev testbr This creates an upper/lower tree of (excuse the poor ASCII art): /---eth0.100-eth0 mac0-testbr- \---eth0.200-eth0 When testbr is deleted, the all_adj_lists are walked, and eth0 is deleted twice from the mac0 list. Unfortunately, during setup in __netdev_upper_dev_link, only one reference to eth0 is added, so this results in a panic. This change adds reference count propagation so things are handled properly.

Edge-rate: As system and networking speeds increase, a signal's output transition, also know as the edge rate or slew rate (V/ns), takes on greater importance because high-speed signals come with a price. That price is an assortment of interference problems like ringing on the line, signal overshoot and undershoot, extended signal settling times, crosstalk noise, transmission line reflections, false signal detection by the receiving device and electromagnetic interference (EMI) -- all of which can negate the potential gains designers are seeking when they try to increase system speeds through the use of higher performance logic devices. The fact is, faster signaling edge rates can cause a higher level of electrical noise or other type of interference that can actually lead to slower line speeds and lower maximum system frequencies. This parameter allow the board designers to change the driving strange, and thereby change the EMI behavioral. Edge-rate parameters (vddmac, edge-slowdown) get from Device Tree.

Although rare, it's possible to hit PCI error early on device probe, meaning possibly some structs are not entirely initialized, and some might even be completely uninitialized, leading to NULL pointer dereference. The i40e driver currently presents a "bad" behavior if device hits such early PCI error: firstly, the struct i40e_pf might not be attached to pci_dev yet, leading to a NULL pointer dereference on access to pf->state. Even checking if the struct is NULL and avoiding the access in that case isn't enough, since the driver cannot recover from PCI error that early; in our experiments we saw multiple failures on kernel log, like: [549.664] i40e 0007:01:00.1: Initial pf_reset failed: -15 [549.664] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -15 [...] [871.644] i40e 0007:01:00.1: The driver for the device stopped because the device firmware failed to init. Try updating your NVM image. [871.644] i40e: probe of 0007:01:00.1 failed with error -32 [...] [872.516] i40e 0007:01:00.0: ARQ: Unknown event 0x0000 ignored Between the first probe failure (error -15) and the second (error -32) another PCI error happened due to the first bad probe. Also, driver started to flood console with those ARQ event messages. This patch will prevent these issues by allowing error recovery mechanism to remove the failed device from the system instead of trying to recover from early PCI errors during device probe.

Stefan Assmann provides the changes in this series to resolve an issue where when we run out of MSIx vectors, iWARP gets disabled automatically. First adds a check for "no vectors left" during MSIx vector allocation for VMDq, which will prevent more vectors being allocated than available. Then fixed the MSIx vector redistribution when we reach the hardware limit for vectors so that additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc do not get starved for vectors because the PF is hogging all the resources. Lastly, fix the issue for flow director by moving the check for the reaching the vector limit earlier in the code so that a decision can be made on disabling flow director. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Yuval Mintz says: ==================== qed*: Add qedr infrastructure support In the last couple of weeks we've been sending RFCs for the qedr driver - the RoCE driver for QLogic FastLinQ 4xxxx line of adapters. Latest RFC can be found at [1]. At Doug's advice [2], we've decided to split the series into two: - first part contains the qed backbone that's necessary for all the configurations relating to the qedr driver, as well as the qede infrastructure that is used for communication between the qedr and qede. - Second part consists of the actual qedr driver and introduces almost no changes to qed/qede. This is the first of said two parts. The second half would be sent later this week. The only 'oddity' in the devision are the Kconfig options - As this series introduces both LL2 and QEDR-based logic in qed/qede, I wanted to add the CONFIG_INFINIBAND_QEDR option here [with default n]. Otherwise, a lot of the code introduced would be dead-code [won't even be compiled] until qedr is accepted. As a result I've placed the config option in an odd place - under qlogic's Kconfig. The second series would then remove that option and add it in its correct place under the infiniband Kconfig. [I'm fine with pushing it there to begin with, but I didn't want to 'contaminate' non-qlogic configuration files with half-baked options]. Dave - I don't think you were E-mailed with Doug's suggestion. I think the notion was to have the two halves accepted side-by-side, but actually the first has no dependency issues, so it's also possible to simply take this first to net-next, and push the qedr into rdma once it's merged. But it's basically up to you and Doug; We'd align with whatever suits you best. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The driver allocates 1 vector per CPU thread and the current hardware limit for vectors is 129 per PF. On systems with 128 or more threads this currently means all vectors are used by the PF leaving no room for additional features like VMDq, iWARP, etc... The code that should redistribute the vectors in this case is broken and never triggers. Fixed the code so that it actually triggers if the hardware limit is reached and adjust the number of queue pairs accordingly. Also the number of initially requested iWARP vectors was not properly saved when the vector limit was reached, and therefore always zero. Comparison with debug statement. Before: i40e 0000:2d:00.0: VMDq disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors i40e 0000:2d:00.0: IWARP disabled, not enough MSI-X vectors i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 128, VMDq 0, FDSB 0, iWARP 0 After: i40e 0000:2d:00.0: MSI-X vector limit reached, attempting to redistribute vectors i40e 00.0 MSI-X vector distribution: PF 78, VMDq 8, FDSB 0, iWARP 42 Signed-off-by: Stefan Assmann <sassmann@kpanic.de> Tested-by: Andrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com>

During MSI-X vector allocation for VMDq, a check for "no vectors left" was missing, add it. This prevents more vectors to be allocated than available.

A call to 'ida_simple_remove()' is missing in the error handling path. This as been spotted with the following coccinelle script which tries to detect missing 'ida_simple_remove()' call in error handling paths. /////////////// @@ expression x; identifier l; @@ * x = ida_simple_get(...); ... if (...) { ... } ... if (...) { ... goto l; } ... * l: ... when != ida_simple_remove(...); Signed-off-by: Christophe JAILLET <christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr> Acked-by: Richard Cochran <richardcochran@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
