Implement the ->set_flags ethtool method to control NETIF_F_RXHASH and set skb->rxhash to the HW calculated hash accordingly. Follow Eric Dumazet's suggestion and use the hash value raw. Signed-off-by:

Now there's no need to use this fuction directly because it's handled by register_pernet_device. So to make this simple and easy to understand, make this static to do not tempt potentional users. Signed-off-by:

Some boards' VPDs contain additional keywords or have longer serial numbers, meaning the keyword locations are variable. Ditch the static layout and use the pci_vpd_* family of functions to parse the VPD instead. Signed-off-by:

Current socket backlog limit is not enough to really stop DDOS attacks, because user thread spend many time to process a full backlog each round, and user might crazy spin on socket lock. We should add backlog size and receive_queue size (aka rmem_alloc) to pace writers, and let user run without being slow down too much. Introduce a sk_rcvqueues_full() helper, to avoid taking socket lock in stress situations. Under huge stress from a multiqueue/RPS enabled NIC, a single flow udp receiver can now process ~200.000 pps (instead of ~100 pps before the patch) on a 8 core machine. Signed-off-by:

batch skb dequeueing from softnet input_pkt_queue to reduce potential lock contention when RPS is enabled. Note: in the worst case, the number of packets in a softnet_data may be double of netdev_max_backlog. Signed-off-by:

The way we were setting autoneg via ethtool was inconstant with that of our other drivers. It will change the following: If autoneg is off: >ethtool -a eth0 Pause parameters for eth0: Autonegotiate: off RX: off TX: off Before: >ethtool -A eth0 autoneg on >ethtool -a eth0 Pause parameters for eth0: Autonegotiate: off RX: off TX: off Now: >ethtool -A eth0 autoneg on >ethtool -a eth0 Pause parameters for eth0: Autonegotiate: on RX: on TX: on Signed-off-by:

There is a small race between when the tx queues are stopped and when netif_carrier_off() is called in ixgbe_down. If the dev_watchdog() timer fires during this time it is possible for a false tx timeout to occur. This patch moves the netif_carrier_off() so that it is called before the tx queues are stopped preventing the dev_watchdog timer from detecting false tx timeouts. The race is seen occosionally when FCoE or DCB settings are being configured or changed. Testing note, running ifconfig up/down will not reproduce this issue because dev_open/dev_close call dev_deactivate() and then dev_activate(). Signed-off-by:

82598/82599 can support EITR == 0, which allows for the absolutely lowest latency setting in the hardware. This disables writeback batching and anything else that relies upon a delayed interrupt. This patch enables the feature of "override" when a user sets rx-usecs to zero, the driver will respect that setting over using RSC, and automatically disable RSC. If rx-usecs is used to set the EITR value to 0, then the driver should disable LRO (aka RSC) internally until EITR is set to non-zero again. Signed-off-by:

RFC 1122 says the following: ... Keep-alive packets MUST only be sent when no data or acknowledgement packets have been received for the connection within an interval. ... The acknowledgement packet is reseting the keepalive timer but the data packet isn't. This patch fixes it by checking the timestamp of the last received data packet too when the keepalive timer expires. Signed-off-by:

Calls to twsk_net() are in some cases protected by reference counting as an alternative to RCU protection. Cases covered by reference counts include __inet_twsk_kill(), inet_twsk_free(), inet_twdr_do_twkill_work(), inet_twdr_twcal_tick(), and tcp_timewait_state_process(). RCU is used by inet_twsk_purge(). Locking is used by established_get_first() and established_get_next(). Finally, __inet_twsk_hashdance() is an initialization case. It appears to be non-trivial to locate the appropriate locks and reference counts from within twsk_net(), so used rcu_dereference_raw(). Signed-off-by:

Prompted by a previous patch submitted by Matthew Garret <mjg@redhat.com>, further digging into errata documentation reveals the current enabling or disabling of ASPM L0s and L1 states for certain parts supported by this driver are incorrect. 82571 and 82572 should always disable L1. For standard frames, 82573/82574/82583 can enable L1 but L0s must be disabled, and for jumbo frames 82573/82574 must disable L1. This allows for some parts to enable L1 in certain configurations leading to better power savings. Also according to the same errata, Early Receive (ERT) should be disabled on 82573 when using jumbo frames. Cc: Matthew Garret <mjg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by:

Trying to run izlisten (from lowpan-tools tests) on a device that does not exists I got the oops below. The problem is that we are using get_dev_by_name without checking if we really get a device back. We don't in this case and writing to dev->type generates this oops. [Oops code removed by Dmitry Eremin-Solenikov] If possible this patch should be applied to the current -rc fixes branch. Signed-off-by:
