This patch fix a unexpected state change for the at86rf231 chip. We can't change into STATE_FORCE_TX_ON while the chip is in one of SLEEP, P_ON, RESET, TRX_OFF, and all *_NOCLK states. In this case we are in the TRX_OFF state. See datasheet [1] page 71 for more information. Without this patch you will get the following message on a at86rf231 device: [ 20.065218] unexpected state change: 8, asked for 4 [ 20.070527] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 20.075414] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 160 at net/mac802154/ieee802154_dev.c:43 mac802154_slave_open+0x70/0xb8() [ 20.085594] Modules linked in: autofs4 [ 20.089667] CPU: 0 PID: 160 Comm: ifconfig Not tainted 3.14.0-20140108-1-00993-g905c192 #162 [ 20.098612] [<c00127b8>] (unwind_backtrace) from [<c0010b1c>] (show_stack+0x10/0x14) [ 20.106819] [<c0010b1c>] (show_stack) from [<c0033838>] (warn_slowpath_common+0x60/0x80) [ 20.115311] [<c0033838>] (warn_slowpath_common) from [<c00338e8>] (warn_slowpath_null+0x18/0x20) [ 20.124590] [<c00338e8>] (warn_slowpath_null) from [<c057b7e8>] (mac802154_slave_open+0x70/0xb8) [ 20.133880] [<c057b7e8>] (mac802154_slave_open) from [<c0488a58>] (__dev_open+0xa8/0x108) [ 20.142553] [<c0488a58>] (__dev_open) from [<c0488cb0>] (__dev_change_flags+0x8c/0x148) [ 20.151051] [<c0488cb0>] (__dev_change_flags) from [<c0488d84>] (dev_change_flags+0x18/0x48) [ 20.159968] [<c0488d84>] (dev_change_flags) from [<c04e2e9c>] (devinet_ioctl+0x2b0/0x63c) [ 20.168623] [<c04e2e9c>] (devinet_ioctl) from [<c04712e4>] (sock_ioctl+0x23c/0x29c) [ 20.176727] [<c04712e4>] (sock_ioctl) from [<c00e3cb8>] (do_vfs_ioctl+0x4a8/0x578) [ 20.184671] [<c00e3cb8>] (do_vfs_ioctl) from [<c00e3dd4>] (SyS_ioctl+0x4c/0x78) [ 20.192402] [<c00e3dd4>] (SyS_ioctl) from [<c000da00>] (ret_fast_syscall+0x0/0x48) [ 20.200392] ---[ end trace 9a34542f4ea08e47 ]--- This patch was tested on at86rf231 and at86rf212.

Eric W. Biederman says: ==================== netpoll: Cleanup received packet processing This is the long-winded, careful, and polite version of removing the netpoll receive packet processing. First I untangle the code in small steps. Then I modify the code to not force reception and dropping of packets when we are transmiting a packet with netpoll. Finally I move all of the packet reception under CONFIG_NETPOLL_TRAP and delete CONFIG_NETPOLL_TRAP. If someone wants to do a stable backport of these patches, it would require backporting the first 18 patches that handle the budget == 0 in the networking drivers, and the first 6 of these patches. If anyone wants to resurrect netpoll packet reception someday it should just be a matter of reverting the last patch. ==================== Signed-off-by: -
Eric W. Biederman authored
The netpoll packet receive code only becomes active if the netpoll rx_skb_hook is implemented, and there is not a single implementation of the netpoll rx_skb_hook in the kernel. All of the out of tree implementations I have found all call netpoll_poll which was removed from the kernel in 2011, so this change should not add any additional breakage. There are problems with the netpoll packet receive code. __netpoll_rx does not call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb_any in hard irq context. netpoll_neigh_reply leaks every skb it receives. Reception of packets does not work successfully on stacked devices (aka bonding, team, bridge, and vlans). Given that the netpoll packet receive code is buggy, there are no out of tree users that will be merged soon, and the code has not been used for in tree for a decade let's just remove it. Reverting this commit can server as a starting point for anyone who wants to resurrect netpoll packet reception support. Acked-by:

Change the strategy of netpoll from dropping all packets received during netpoll_poll_dev to calling napi poll with a budget of 0 (to avoid processing drivers rx queue), and to ignore packets received with netif_rx (those will safely be placed on the backlog queue). All of the netpoll supporting drivers have been reviewed to ensure either thay use netif_rx or that a budget of 0 is supported by their napi poll routine and that a budget of 0 will not process the drivers rx queues. Not dropping packets makes NETPOLL_RX_DROP unnecesary so it is removed. npinfo->rx_flags is removed as rx_flags with just the NETPOLL_RX_ENABLED flag becomes just a redundant mirror of list_empty(&npinfo->rx_np).

There is already a warning for this case in the normal netpoll path, but put a copy here in case how netpoll calls the poll functions causes a differenet result. netpoll will shortly call the napi poll routine with a budget 0 to avoid any rx packets being processed. As nothing does that today we may encounter drivers that have problems so a netpoll specific warning seems desirable. Signed-off-by:

Today netpoll depends on setting NETPOLL_RX_DROP before networking drivers receive packets in interrupt context so that the packets can be dropped. Move this setting into netpoll_poll_dev from poll_one_napi so that if ndo_poll_controller happens to receive packets we will drop the packets on the floor instead of letting the packets bounce through the networking stack and potentially cause problems.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer took them over to address remaining issues. Several patches to prepare this change come in first place. * Rework nft_hash to resolve bugs (leaking chain, missing rcu synchronization on element removal, etc. from Patrick McHardy. * Restore context in the rule deletion path, as we now release rule objects synchronously, from Patrick McHardy. This gets back event notification for anonymous sets. * Fix NAT family validation in nft_nat, also from Patrick. * Improve scalability of xt_connlimit by using an array of spinlocks and by introducing a rb-tree of hashtables for faster lookup of accounted objects per network.

With current match design every invocation of the connlimit_match function means we have to perform (number_of_conntracks % 256) lookups in the conntrack table [ to perform GC/delete stale entries ]. This is also the reason why ____nf_conntrack_find() in perf top has > 20% cpu time per core. This patch changes the storage to rbtree which cuts down the number of ct objects that need testing. When looking up a new tuple, we only test the connections of the host objects we visit while searching for the wanted host/network (or the leaf we need to insert at). The slot count is reduced to 32. Increasing slot count doesn't speed up things much because of rbtree nature. before patch (50kpps rx, 10kpps tx): + 20.95% ksoftirqd/0 [nf_conntrack] [k] ____nf_conntrack_find + 20.50% ksoftirqd/1 [nf_conntrack] [k] ____nf_conntrack_find + 20.27% ksoftirqd/2 [nf_conntrack] [k] ____nf_conntrack_find + 5.76% ksoftirqd/1 [nf_conntrack] [k] hash_conntrack_raw + 5.39% ksoftirqd/2 [nf_conntrack] [k] hash_conntrack_raw + 5.35% ksoftirqd/0 [nf_conntrack] [k] hash_conntrack_raw after (90kpps, 51kpps tx): + 17.24% swapper [nf_conntrack] [k] ____nf_conntrack_find + 6.60% ksoftirqd/2 [nf_conntrack] [k] ____nf_conntrack_find + 2.73% swapper [nf_conntrack] [k] hash_conntrack_raw + 2.36% swapper [xt_connlimit] [k] count_tree Obvious disadvantages to previous version are the increase in code complexity and the increased memory cost.

Eric W. Biederman says: ==================== Don't receive packets when the napi budget == 0 After reading through all 120 drivers supporting netpoll I have found 16 more that process at least received packet when the napi budget == 0. Processing more packets than your budget has always been a bug but we haven't cared before so it looks like these drivers slipped through, and need fixes. As netpoll will shortly be using a budget of 0 to get the tx queue processing with the rx queue processing we now care. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

The current logic suffers from a slow response time to disable user DB usage, and also fails to avoid DB FIFO drops under heavy load. This commit fixes these deficiencies and makes the avoidance logic more optimal. This is done by more efficiently notifying the ULDs of potential DB problems, and implements a smoother flow control algorithm in iw_cxgb4, which is the ULD that puts the most load on the DB fifo. Design: cxgb4: Direct ULD callback from the DB FULL/DROP interrupt handler. This allows the ULD to stop doing user DB writes as quickly as possible. While user DB usage is disabled, the LLD will accumulate DB write events for its queues. Then once DB usage is reenabled, a single DB write is done for each queue with its accumulated write count. This reduces the load put on the DB fifo when reenabling. iw_cxgb4: Instead of marking each qp to indicate DB writes are disabled, we create a device-global status page that each user process maps. This allows iw_cxgb4 to only set this single bit to disable all DB writes for all user QPs vs traversing the idr of all the active QPs. If the libcxgb4 doesn't support this, then we fall back to the old approach of marking each QP. Thus we allow the new driver to work with an older libcxgb4. When the LLD upcalls iw_cxgb4 indicating DB FULL, we disable all DB writes via the status page and transition the DB state to STOPPED. As user processes see that DB writes are disabled, they call into iw_cxgb4 to submit their DB write events. Since the DB state is in STOPPED, the QP trying to write gets enqueued on a new DB "flow control" list. As subsequent DB writes are submitted for this flow controlled QP, the amount of writes are accumulated for each QP on the flow control list. So all the user QPs that are actively ringing the DB get put on this list and the number of writes they request are accumulated. When the LLD upcalls iw_cxgb4 indicating DB EMPTY, which is in a workq context, we change the DB state to FLOW_CONTROL, and begin resuming all the QPs that are on the flow control list. This logic runs on until the flow control list is empty or we exit FLOW_CONTROL mode (due to a DB DROP upcall, for example). QPs are removed from this list, and their accumulated DB write counts written to the DB FIFO. Sets of QPs, called chunks in the code, are removed at one time. The chunk size is 64. So 64 QPs are resumed at a time, and before the next chunk is resumed, the logic waits (blocks) for the DB FIFO to drain. This prevents resuming to quickly and overflowing the FIFO. Once the flow control list is empty, the db state transitions back to NORMAL and user QPs are again allowed to write directly to the user DB register. The algorithm is designed such that if the DB write load is high enough, then all the DB writes get submitted by the kernel using this flow controlled approach to avoid DB drops. As the load lightens though, we resume to normal DB writes directly by user applications. Signed-off-by:
