The debugfs support in the ibmvnic driver is not, and never has been, supported. Just remove it. The work done in the debugfs code for the driver was part of the original spec for the ibmvnic driver. The corresponding support for this from the server side was never supported and has been dropped. Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Some device drivers reset their stats at down/up events, possibly fooling bonding stats, since they operate with relative deltas. It is nearly not possible to fix drivers, since some of them compute the tx/rx counters based on per rx/tx queue stats, and the queues can be reconfigured (ethtool -L) between the down/up sequence. Lets avoid accumulating 'negative' values that render bonding stats useless. It is better to lose small deltas, assuming the bonding stats are fetched at a reasonable frequency.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-03-29 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Preethi changes the default driver mode of operation to descriptor write-back for VF. Alex cleans up and addresses several issues in the way that i40e handles private flags. Modifies the driver to use the length of the packet instead of the DD status bit to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed. Refactors the driver by pulling the code responsible for fetching the receive buffer and synchronizing DMA into a single function. Also pulled the code responsible for handling buffer recycling and page counting and distributed it through several functions, so we can commonize the bits that handle either freeing or recycling the buffers. Cleans up the code in preparation for us adding support for build_skb(). Changed the way we handle the maximum frame size for the receive path so it is more consistent with other drivers. Paul enables XL722 to use the direct read/write method since it does not support the AQ command to read/write the control register. Christopher fixes a case where we miss an arq element if a new one is added before we enable interrupts and exit the loop. Jake cleans up a pointless goto statement. Also cleaned up a flag that was not being used. Carolyn does round 2 for adding a delay to the receive queue to accommodate the hardware needs. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

I found a bug by: 0. boot and start dhcp client 1. echo mem > /sys/power/state 2. resume back immediately 3. don't touch dhcp client to renew the lease 4. ping the gateway. No acks Usually, after step2, the DHCP lease isn't expired, so in theory we should resume all back. But in fact, it doesn't. It turns out the rx mode isn't resumed correctly. This patch fixes it by adding mvneta_set_rx_mode(dev) in the resume hook if interface is running.

Or Gerlitz says: ==================== mlx5e-pedit 2017-03-28 This series adds support for offloading modifications of packet headers using ConnectX-5 HW header re-write as an action applied during packet steering. The offloaded SW mechanism is TC's pedit action. The offloading is supported for E-Switch steering of VF traffic in the SRIOV switchdev mode and for NIC (non eswitch) RX. One use-case for this offload on virtual networks, is when the hypervisor implements flow based router such as Open-Stack's DVR, where L2 headers of guest packets re-written with routers' MAC addresses and the IP TTL is decremented. Another use case (which can be applied in parallel with routing) is stateless NAT where guest L3/L4 headers are re-written. The series is built as follows: the 1st six patches are preperations which don't yet add new functionality, patches 7-8 add the FW APIs (data-structures and commands) for header re-write, and patch nine allows offloading driver to access pedit keys. The 10th patch is somehow the core of the series, where we translate from the pedit way to represent set of header modification elements to the FW API for that same matter. Once a set of HW modification is established, we register it with the FW and get a modify header ID. When this ID is used with an action during packet steering, the HW applies the header modification on the packet. Patches 11 and 12 implement the above logic as an offload for pedit action for the NIC and E-Switch use-cases. I'd like to thanks Elijah Shakkour <elijahs@mellanox.com> for implementing and helping me testing this functionality on HW simulator, before it could be done with FW. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

mdio-boardinfo contains code that is helpful for platforms to register specific MDIO bus devices independent of how CONFIG_MDIO_DEVICE or CONFIG_PHYLIB will be selected (modular or built-in). In order to make that possible, let's do the following: - descend into drivers/net/phy/ unconditionally - make mdiobus_setup_mdiodev_from_board_info() take a callback argument which allows us not to expose the internal MDIO board info list and mutex, yet maintain the logic within the same file - relocate the code that creates a MDIO device into drivers/net/phy/mdio_bus.c - build mdio-boardinfo.o into the kernel as soon as MDIO_DEVICE is defined (y or m) Fixes: 90eff909 ("net: phy: Allow splitting MDIO bus/device support from PHYs") Fixes: 648ea013 ("net: phy: Allow pre-declaration of MDIO devices") Signed-off-by: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@gmail.com> Tested-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch changes the way we handle the maximum frame size for the Rx path. Previously we were rounding up to 2K for a 1500 MTU and then brining the max frame size down to MTU plus a fixed amount. With this patch applied what we now do is limit the maximum frame to 1.5K minus the value for NET_IP_ALIGN for standard MTU, and for any MTU greater than 1500 we allow up to the maximum frame size. This makes the behavior more consistent with the other drivers such as igb which had similar logic. In addition it reduces the test matrix for MTU since we only have two max frame sizes that are handled for Rx now.

This patch adds a control which will allow us to toggle into and out of the legacy Rx mode. The legacy Rx mode is what we currently do when performing Rx. As I make further changes what should happen is that the driver will fall back to the behavior for Rx as of this patch should the "legacy-rx" flag be set to on.

This patch is meant to clean up the code in preparation for us adding support for build_skb. Specifically we deconstruct i40e_fetch_buffer into several functions so that those functions can later be reused when we add a path for build_skb. Specifically with this change we split out the code for adding a page to an exiting skb.

This patch pulls out the code responsible for handling buffer recycling and page counting and distributes it through several functions. This allows us to commonize the bits that handle either freeing or recycling the buffers. As far as the page count tracking one change to the logic is that pagecnt_bias is decremented as soon as we call i40e_get_rx_buffer. It is then the responsibility of the function that pulls the data to either increment the pagecnt_bias if the buffer can be recycled as-is, or to update page_offset so that we are pointing at the correct location for placement of the next buffer.

This patch pulls the code responsible for fetching the Rx buffer and synchronizing DMA into a function, specifically called i40e_get_rx_buffer. The general idea is to allow for better code reuse by pulling this out of i40e_fetch_rx_buffer. We dropped a couple of prefetches since the time between the prefetch being called and the data being accessed was too small to be useful.

This change makes it so that we use the length of the packet instead of the DD status bit to determine if a new descriptor is ready to be processed. The obvious advantage is that it cuts down on reads as we don't really even need the DD bit if going from a 0 to a non-zero value on size is enough to inform us that the packet has been completed.

The goto found here for when in MFP mode is pointless. It jumps to the end of a series of if blocks. However, right after this statement is a closing '}' for this if block, which will result in the program flow going to the exact same location as the goto statement indicates. Thus, regardless of whether we are in MFP mode, the program flow will resume from the same location. This arose due to various refactoring which did not notice that this goto became essentially a no-op. To properly understand this diff you will need to view a larger context than is given by default.

This patch cleans up and addresses several issues in the way that i40e handles private flags. Previously the code was choosing fixed bits and trying to match them up with strings in a somewhat haphazard way. This resulted in the possibility for adding a new bit and causing a mismatch as the private flags are linear bits starting at 0, and the private flags in the driver were split up over a group specific to the PF and a group that was global. What this change does is define an array of structs used to represent the private flags. Contained within the structs are the bits necessary to know which flags to set and/or clear depending on the state of the bit. By doing this we can add new bits in the future with minimal overhead and avoid creating possible mis-matches should we need to remove a flag based on compile options.

The current driver mode is to use a write-back mechanism for the head register which indicates transmit completions. The VF driver needs to be able to work on hardware that exclusively uses descriptor write-back, so change the default driver mode of operation to descriptor write-back for VF. In our analysis, performance wasn't significantly different with either write-back method.

Andrew Lunn says: ==================== break include loop and dsa devlink support These two patches add very basic support for devlink to DSA, in preparation for playing with dpipe. The first patch is needed to break an include loop between netdevice.h, dsa.h and devlink.h. We need to remove dsa.h from netdevice.h. As a result, some files fail to compile, because they require includes pulled in via dsa.h. So this patch adds a number of includes in various places. The majority is within the network subsystem, but cifs also needs a few fixes. 0-day has been chewing on this for over a day now, and not found any breakage.

There is an include loop between netdevice.h, dsa.h, devlink.h because of NETDEV_ALIGN, making it impossible to use devlink structures in dsa.h. Break this loop by taking dsa.h out of netdevice.h, add a forward declaration of dsa_switch_tree and netdev_set_default_ethtool_ops() function, which is what netdevice.h requires. No longer having dsa.h in netdevice.h means the includes in dsa.h no longer get included. This breaks a few other files which depend on these includes. Add these directly in the affected file.
