This change is meant to improve performance on systems that do not require the DMA unmap calls. On those systems we do not need to make use of the unmap address for Tx or the unmap length so we can drop both thereby reducing the size of the Tx buffer info structure. In addition I have changed the logic to check for unmap length instead of unmap address when checking to see if a buffer needs to be unmapped from DMA use. The reasons for this change is that on some platforms it is possible to receive a valid DMA address of 0 from an IOMMU.

Instead of storing the RSS key as a character array we can simplify the configuration by making it a u32 array. This allows us to just write one value per register without any unnecessary operations to construct the value. This change will produce the same exact key, the only difference is that I translated the u8 array to a u32 array which will be correctly ordered on writes to hardware by the cpu_to_le32 operations that are built into the writel calls.

This patch cleans up our RSS indirection table configuration so that we generate the same table regardless of CPU endianness. In addition it changes the table setup so that instead of doing a modulo based setup it is instead a divisor based setup. The advantage to this is that we should be able to take the Rx hash and compute the Rx queue with very little CPU overhead if needed.

This change makes it so that Tx cleanup is done in a do/while loop instead of a for loop. The main motivation behind this is the fact that we should never be invoked with a budget less than 1 so we can skip checking the budget before processing the first descriptor.

This change removes the code that was doing the NUMA allocations for the q_vectors, rings, and ring resources. The problem is the logic used assumed that the NUMA nodes were always interleved and that is not always the case. At some point I hope to add this functionality back in a more controlled manner in the future.

Adapt the pre-existing and assigned VFs code to the ixgbe way introduced in commit 9297127b. Instead of searching the enabled VFs we use pci_num_vf to determine enabled VFs. By comparing to which PF an assigned VF is owned it's possible to decide whether to leave it enabled or not.

On small systems (e.g. embedded ones) IP addresses are often configured by bootloaders and get assigned to kernel via parameter "ip=". If set to "ip=dhcp", even nameserver entries from DHCP daemons are handled. These entries exported in /proc/net/pnp are commonly linked by /etc/resolv.conf. To configure nameservers for networks without DHCP, this patch adds option <dns0-ip> and <dns1-ip> to kernel-parameter 'ip='.

Replace the existing device specific UML290 entries with generic vendor matching, adding support for the Pantech P4200.

The dbg() USB macro is so old, it predates me. The USB networking drivers are the last hold-out using this macro, and we want to get rid of it, so replace the usage of it with the proper netdev_dbg() or dev_dbg() (depending on the context) calls. Some places we end up using a local variable for the debug call, so also convert the other existing dev_* calls to use it as well, to save tiny amounts of code space.

Add rtnl_link_ops to IPoIB, with the first usage being child device create/delete through them. Childs devices are now either legacy ones, created/deleted through the ipoib sysfs entries, or RTNL ones. Adding support for RTNL childs involved refactoring of ipoib_vlan_add which is now used by both the sysfs and the link_ops code. Also, added ndo_uninit entry to support calling unregister_netdevice_queue from the rtnl dellink entry. This required removal of calls to ipoib_dev_cleanup from the driver in flows which use unregister_netdevice, since the networking core will invoke ipoib_uninit which does exactly that.

For some reason the reading of the RQDPC register was being artificially limited to 4K. Instead of limiting the value we should read the value and add the full amount.

The r8169 driver currently limits the DMA burst for TX to 1024 bytes. I have a box where this prevents the interface from using the gigabit line to its full potential. This patch solves the problem by setting TX_DMA_BURST to unlimited. The box has an ASRock B75M motherboard with on-board RTL8168evl/8111evl (XID 0c900880). TSO is enabled. I used netperf (TCP_STREAM test) to measure the dependency of TX throughput on MTU. I did it for three different values of TX_DMA_BURST ('5'=512, '6'=1024, '7'=unlimited). This chart shows the results: http://michich.fedorapeople.org/r8169/r8169-effects-of-TX_DMA_BURST.png Interesting points: - With the current DMA burst limit (1024): - at the default MTU=1500 I get only 842 Mbit/s. - when going from small MTU, the performance rises monotonically with increasing MTU only up to a peak at MTU=1076 (908 MBit/s). Then there's a sudden drop to 762 MBit/s from which the throughput rises monotonically again with further MTU increases. - With a smaller DMA burst limit (512): - there's a similar peak at MTU=1076 and another one at MTU=564. - With unlimited DMA burst: - at the default MTU=1500 I get nice 940 Mbit/s. - the throughput rises monotonically with increasing MTU with no strange peaks. Notice that the peaks occur at MTU sizes that are multiples of the DMA burst limit plus 52. Why 52? Because: 20 (IP header) + 20 (TCP header) + 12 (TCP options) = 52 The Realtek-provided r8168 driver (v8.032.00) uses unlimited TX DMA burst too, except for CFG_METHOD_1 where the TX DMA burst is set to 512 bytes. CFG_METHOD_1 appears to be the oldest MAC version of "RTL8168B/8111B", i.e. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 in r8169. Not sure if this MAC version really needs the smaller burst limit, or if any other versions have similar requirements.

Two years ago, Shan Wei tried to fix this: http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/43905/ The problem is that RFC2460 requires an ICMP Time Exceeded -- Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded message should be sent to the source of that fragment, if the defragmentation times out. " If insufficient fragments are received to complete reassembly of a packet within 60 seconds of the reception of the first-arriving fragment of that packet, reassembly of that packet must be abandoned and all the fragments that have been received for that packet must be discarded. If the first fragment (i.e., the one with a Fragment Offset of zero) has been received, an ICMP Time Exceeded -- Fragment Reassembly Time Exceeded message should be sent to the source of that fragment. " As Herbert suggested, we could actually use the standard IPv6 reassembly code which follows RFC2460. With this patch applied, I can see ICMP Time Exceeded sent from the receiver when the sender sent out 3/4 fragmented IPv6 UDP packet.

Instead of forcing device drivers to provide empty ethtool_ops or tweak net/core/ethtool.c again, we could provide a generic ethtool_ops. This occurred to me when I wanted to add GSO support to GRE tunnels. ethtool -k support should be generic for all drivers.

When moving a nic from net namespace A to net namespace B, in dev_change_net_namesapce,we call __dev_get_by_name to decide if the netns B has the device has the same name. if the netns B already has the same named device,we call dev_get_valid_name to try to get a valid name for this nic in the netns B,but net_device->nd_net still point to netns A now. this patch fix it.

If dst cache dst_a copies from dst_b, and dst_b copies from dst_c, check if dst_a is expired or not, we should not end with dst_a->dst.from, dst_b, we should check dst_c.

dev_queue_xmit_nit() should be called right before ndo_start_xmit() calls or we might give wrong packet contents to taps users : Packet checksum can be changed, or packet can be linearized or segmented, and segments partially sent for the later case. Also a memory allocation can fail and packet never really hit the driver entry point.

MCDI supports requests up to 252 bytes long, which is only enough to pass 63 RX queue IDs to MC_CMD_FLUSH_RX_QUEUES. However a VF may have up to 64 RX queues, and if we try to flush them all we will generate an over-length request and BUG() in efx_mcdi_copyin(). Currently all VF drivers limit themselves to 32 RX queues, so reducing the limit to 63 does no harm. Also add a BUILD_BUG_ON in efx_mcdi_flush_rxqs() so we remember to deal with the same problem there if EFX_MAX_CHANNELS is increased. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
