      cxgb4: Cleanup macros so they follow the same style and look consistent · 6559a7e8
      Hariprasad Shenai authored
      Various patches have ended up changing the style of the symbolic macros/register
      to different style.
      
      As a result, the current kernel.org files are a mix of different macro styles.
      Since this macro/register defines is used by different drivers a
      few patch series have ended up adding duplicate macro/register define entries
      with different styles. This makes these register define/macro files a complete
      mess and we want to make them clean and consistent. This patch cleans up a part
      of it.

      mlx4: use napi_complete_done() · 1a288172
      Eric Dumazet authored
      To enable gro_flush_timeout, a driver has to use napi_complete_done()
      instead of napi_complete().
      
      Tested:
       Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues)
      
      Without this feature, we send back about 305,000 ACK per second.
      
      GRO aggregation ratio is low (811/305 = 2.65 segments per GRO packet)
      
      Setting a timer of 2000 nsec is enough to increase GRO packet sizes
      and reduce number of ACK packets. (811/19.2 = 42)
      
      Receiver performs less calls to upper stacks, less wakes up.
      This also reduces cpu usage on the sender, as it receives less ACK
      packets.
      
      Note that reducing number of wakes up increases cpu efficiency, but can
      decrease QPS, as applications wont have the chance to warmup cpu caches
      doing a partial read of RPC requests/answers if they fit in one skb.

      net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer · 3b47d303
      Eric Dumazet authored
      Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard.
      
      Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting
      goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal
      latencies.
      
      To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use :
      
      ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44
      
      But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to
      50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when
      a packet with TCP Push flag is received.
      
      Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every
      incoming packet.
      
      This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do,
      based on traffic pattern.
      
      Packets with Push flag wont be delayed.
      Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep
      receiving data.
      
      This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting
      /sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond.
      
      To fully enable this mechanism, drivers should use napi_complete_done()
      instead of napi_complete().
      
      Tested:
       Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues)

      enic: update desc properly in rx_copybreak · f6b7734b
      Govindarajulu Varadarajan authored
      When we reuse the rx buffer, we need to update the desc. If not hardware sees
      stale value.
      
      In the following crash, when mtu is changed, hardware sees old rx buffer value
      and crashes on skb_put.
      
      Fix this by using enic_queue_rq_desc helper function which updates the necessary
      desc.

      In case of error in rx path, we free the buf->os_buf but we do not make it NULL.
      In next iteration we use the skb which is already freed. This causes the

      When events arrive at driver load, the event handler gets called even before
      the spinlock and list are initialized. Fix this by moving the initialization

      net/mlx5_core: Fix race in create EQ · a158906d
      Eli Cohen authored
      After the EQ is created, it can possibly generate interrupts and the interrupt
      handler is referencing eq->dev. It is therefore required to set eq->dev before
      calling request_irq() so if an event is generated before request_irq() returns,
      we will have a valid eq->dev field.

      ====================
      sunvnet: bug fixes
      
      This patch series has a coding-style fix and a bug fix.
      
      The coding style fix (patch 1) is the extra indentation flagged by
      Ben Hutchings:
        http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=141529243409594&w=2
      
      The bugfix (patch 2) is the following:
      when vnet_event_napi() is  called as part of napi_resume
      (i.e., continuation of a previous NAPI read that was truncated
      due to budget constraints), and then finds no more packets to read,
      the code was trying to avoid an additional trip through ldc_rx
      as an optimization. However, when this corner case happens, we would
      need to reset a number of dring state bits such as rcv_nxt carefully,
      which quickly becomes complex and hacky.  The cleaner solution
      is to just roll back to vnet_poll, re-enable interrupts and set up
      dring state as was done in the pre-NAPI version of the driver.

      sunvnet: Return from vnet_napi_event() if no packets to read · 8c4ee3e7
      Sowmini Varadhan authored
      vnet_event_napi() may be called as part of the NAPI ->poll,
      to resume reading descriptor rings. When no data is available,
      descriptor ring state (e.g., rcv_nxt) needs to be reset
      carefully to stay in lock-step with ldc_read(). In the interest
      of simplicity, the best way to do this is to return from
      vnet_event_napi() when there are no more packets to read.
      The next trip through ldc_rx will correctly set up the dring state.

      net: esp: Convert NETDEBUG to pr_info · 45083497
      Joe Perches authored
      Commit 64ce2073 ("[NET]: Make NETDEBUG pure printk wrappers")
      originally had these NETDEBUG printks as always emitting.
      
      Commit a2a316fd ("[NET]: Replace CONFIG_NET_DEBUG with sysctl")
      added a net_msg_warn sysctl to these NETDEBUG uses.
      
      Convert these NETDEBUG uses to normal pr_info calls.
      
      This changes the output prefix from "ESP: " to include
      "IPSec: " for the ipv4 case and "IPv6: " for the ipv6 case.
      
      These output lines are now like the other messages in the files.
      
      Other miscellanea:
      
      Neaten the arithmetic spacing to be consistent with other
      arithmetic spacing in the files.
