Commit 9ad7c049 ("tcp: RFC2988bis + taking RTT sample from 3WHS for the passive open side") changed the initRTO from 3secs to 1sec in accordance to RFC6298 (former RFC2988bis). This reduced the time till the last SYN retransmission packet gets sent from 93secs to 31secs. RFC1122 is stating that the retransmission should be done for at least 3 minutes, but this seems to be quite high. "However, the values of R1 and R2 may be different for SYN and data segments. In particular, R2 for a SYN segment MUST be set large enough to provide retransmission of the segment for at least 3 minutes. The application can close the connection (i.e., give up on the open attempt) sooner, of course." This patch increases the value of TCP_SYN_RETRIES to the value of 6, providing a retransmission window of 63secs. The comments for SYN and SYNACK retries have also been updated to describe the current settings. The same goes for the documentation file "Documentation/networking/ip-sysctl.txt".

Existing code assumes that del_timer returns true for alive conntrack entries. However, this is not true if reliable events are enabled. In that case, del_timer may return true for entries that were just inserted in the dying list. Note that packets / ctnetlink may hold references to conntrack entries that were just inserted to such list. This patch fixes the issue by adding an independent timer for event delivery. This increases the size of the ecache extension. Still we can revisit this later and use variable size extensions to allocate this area on demand.

Make the device tree probe function more data-driven, so that it no longer searches the 'compatible' property more than once. The of_device_id[] array allows for per-entry private data, so we use that to store details about each type of node that the driver supports. This removes the need to check the 'compatible' property inside the probe function. The driver supports four types on MDIO devices: 1) Gianfar MDIO nodes that only map the MII registers 2) Gianfar MDIO nodes that map the full MDIO register set 3) eTSEC2 MDIO nodes (which map the full MDIO register set) 4) QE MDIO nodes (which map only the MII registers) Gianfar, eTSEC2, and QE have different mappings for the TBIPA register, which is needed to initialize the TBI PHY. In addition, the QE needs a special hack because of the way the device tree is ordered. All of this information is encapsulated in the fsl_pq_mdio_data structure, so when an MDIO node is probed, per-device data and functions are used to determine how to initialize the device.

Changes from commit df505e were incorrectly over-written by commit 10ef9ab4. Fixing the same. Change log of the original fix: Currently RSS rings are not created in a multi-channel config. RSS rings can be created on one (out of four) interfaces per port in a multi-channel config. Doing this insulates the driver from a FW bug wherin multi-channel config is wrongly reported even when not enabled. This also helps performance in a multi-channel config, as one interface per port gets RSS rings. Signed-off-by: Sathya Perla <sathya.perla@emulex.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

The IEEE 802.15.4 standard represents a networking protocol. I don't exactly know why drivers for this protocol are stored into the root 'driver' folder, but better will be to store them with other networking stuff.

This complements patch "net-forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link" which ensures that a lock-up sequence is not sent to the NIC. Present patch ensures that if a NIC is already locked-up, the driver will recover from it when initializing the device. It does the equivalent of the following recovery sequence: - write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register NvRegTxPauseFrame - write NVREG_XMITCTL_START to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl - write 0 to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl (this is at the heart of the "unbricking" sequence mentioned in patch "net-forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link") Tested: - hardware is MCP55 device id 10de:0373 (rev a3), dual-port - reboot a kernel without any of patches mentioned - freeze the NIC (details on description for commit "net-forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link") - wait 5mn until ping hangs & TX timeout in dmesg - reboot on kernel with present patch - host is immediatly operational, no TX timeout Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <decot@googlers.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

On some dual-port forcedeth devices such as MCP55 10de:0373 (rev a3), when autoneg & TX pause are enabled while port is connected but interface is down, the NIC will eventually freeze (TX timeouts, network unreachable). This patch ensures that TX pause is not configured in hardware when interface is down. The TX pause request will be honored when interface is later configured. Tested: - hardware is MCP55 device id 10de:0373 (rev a3), dual-port - eth0 connected and UP, eth1 connected but DOWN - without this patch, following sequence would brick NIC: ifconfig eth0 down ifconfig eth1 up ifconfig eth1 down ethtool -A eth1 autoneg off rx on tx off ifconfig eth1 up ifconfig eth1 down ethtool -A eth1 autoneg on rx on tx on ifconfig eth1 up ifconfig eth1 down ifup eth0 sleep 120 # or longer ethtool eth1 Just in case, sequence to un-brick: ifconfig eth0 down ethtool -A eth1 autoneg off rx on tx off ifconfig eth1 up ifconfig eth1 down ifup eth0 - with this patch: no TX timeout after "bricking" sequence above Details: - The following register accesses have been identified as the ones causing the NIC to freeze in "bricking" sequence above: - write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register NvRegTxPauseFrame - write NVREG_MISC1_PAUSE_TX | NVREG_MISC1_FORCE to eth1's register NvRegMisc1 - write 0 to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl This is what this patch avoids.

When tearing down a net namespace, ipv4 mr_table structures are freed without first deactivating their timers. This can result in a crash in run_timer_softirq. This patch mimics the corresponding behaviour in ipv6. Locking and synchronization seem to be adequate. We are about to kfree mrt, so existing code should already make sure that no other references to mrt are pending or can be created by incoming traffic. The functions invoked here do not cause new references to mrt or other race conditions to be created. Invoking del_timer_sync guarantees that ipmr_expire_timer is inactive. Both ipmr_expire_process (whose completion we may have to wait in del_timer_sync) and mroute_clean_tables internally use mfc_unres_lock or other synchronizations when needed, and they both only modify mrt.

With a low enough MSS on the link partner and TSO enabled locally, the networking stack can periodically send a very large (e.g. 64KB) TCP message for which the driver will attempt to use more Tx descriptors than are available by default in the Tx ring. This is due to a workaround in the code that imposes a limit of only 4 MSS-sized segments per descriptor which appears to be a carry-over from the older e1000 driver and may be applicable only to some older PCI or PCIx parts which are not supported in e1000e. When the driver gets a message that is too large to fit across the configured number of Tx descriptors, it stops the upper stack from queueing any more and gets stuck in this state. After a timeout, the upper stack assumes the adapter is hung and calls the driver to reset it. Remove the unnecessary limitation of using up to only 4 MSS-sized segments per Tx descriptor, and put in a hard failure test to catch when attempting to check for message sizes larger than would fit in the whole Tx ring. Refactor the remaining logic that limits the size of data per Tx descriptor from a seemingly arbitrary 8KB to a limit based on the dynamic size of the Tx packet buffer as described in the hardware specification. Also, fix the logic in the check for space in the Tx ring for the next largest possible packet after the current one has been successfully queued for transmit, and use the appropriate defines for default ring sizes in e1000_probe instead of magic values. This issue goes back to the introduction of e1000e in 2.6.24 when it was split off from e1000.
