On some i.MX6 serial boards, phy power and refrence clock are supplied or controlled by SOC. When do suspend/resume test, the power and clock are disabled, so phy device link down. For current driver, fep->link is still up status, which cause extra operation like below code. To avoid the dumy operation, we set fep->link to down when phy device is real down. ... if (fep->link) { napi_disable(&fep->napi); netif_tx_lock_bh(ndev); fec_stop(ndev); netif_tx_unlock_bh(ndev); napi_enable(&fep->napi); fep->link = phy_dev->link; status_change = 1; } ...

Daniel Borkmann says: ==================== Kill arch_fast_hash Due to the size of changes I have based this against net-next, also given 3.18 is already out. I've split this into 3 parts, the first two to remove existing users (so they can optionally go to stable) and the last one to kill the remaining library bits. Let me know if there are any issues. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

As there are now no remaining users of arch_fast_hash(), lets kill it entirely. This basically reverts commit 71ae8aac ("lib: introduce arch optimized hash library") and follow-up work, that is f.e., commit 23721754 ("lib: hash: follow-up fixups for arch hash"), commit e3fec2f7 ("lib: Add missing arch generic-y entries for asm-generic/hash.h") and last but not least commit 6a02652d ("perf tools: Fix include for non x86 architectures").

This patch effectively reverts commit 500f8087 ("net: ovs: use CRC32 accelerated flow hash if available"), and other remaining arch_fast_hash() users such as from nfsd via commit 6282cd56 ("NFSD: Don't hand out delegations for 30 seconds after recalling them.") where it has been used as a hash function for bloom filtering. While we think that these users are actually not much of concern, it has been requested to remove the arch_fast_hash() library bits that arose from [1] entirely as per recent discussion [2]. The main argument is that using it as a hash may introduce bias due to its linearity (see avalanche criterion) and thus makes it less clear (though we tried to document that) when this security/performance trade-off is actually acceptable for a general purpose library function. Lets therefore avoid any further confusion on this matter and remove it to prevent any future accidental misuse of it. For the time being, this is going to make hashing of flow keys a bit more expensive in the ovs case, but future work could reevaluate a different hashing discipline.

For netlink, we shouldn't be using arch_fast_hash() as a hashing discipline, but rather jhash() instead. Since netlink sockets can be opened by any user, a local attacker would be able to easily create collisions with the DPDK-derived arch_fast_hash(), which trades off performance for security by using crc32 CPU instructions on x86_64. While it might have a legimite use case in other places, it should be avoided in netlink context, though. As rhashtable's API is very flexible, we could later on still decide on other hashing disciplines, if legitimate.

commit 908344cd ("tipc: fix bug in multicast congestion handling") introduced a race in the broadcast link wakeup functionality. This patch eliminates this broadcast link wakeup race caused by operation on the wakeup list without proper locking.

This replaces most of the calls to netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align in the Realtek drivers. The one instance I didn't replace in 8139cp.c is because it was called as a part of init and as such is not always accessed from the softirq context.

This change replaces calls to netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align with napi_alloc_skb. The advantage of napi_alloc_skb is currently the fact that the page allocation doesn't make use of any irq disable calls. There are few spots where I couldn't replace the calls as the buffer allocation routine is called as a part of init which is outside of the softirq context.

Alexander Duyck authored
This change pulls the core functionality out of __netdev_alloc_skb and places them in a new function named __alloc_rx_skb. The reason for doing this is to make these bits accessible to a new function __napi_alloc_skb. In addition __alloc_rx_skb now has a new flags value that is used to determine which page frag pool to allocate from. If the SKB_ALLOC_NAPI flag is set then the NAPI pool is used. The advantage of this is that we do not have to use local_irq_save/restore when accessing the NAPI pool from NAPI context. In my test setup I saw at least 11ns of savings using the napi_alloc_skb function versus the netdev_alloc_skb function, most of this being due to the fact that we didn't have to call local_irq_save/restore. The main use case for napi_alloc_skb would be for things such as copybreak or page fragment based receive paths where an skb is allocated after the data has been received instead of before.

Alexander Duyck authored
This patch splits the netdev_alloc_frag function up so that it can be used on one of two page frag pools instead of being fixed on the netdev_alloc_cache. By doing this we can add a NAPI specific function __napi_alloc_frag that accesses a pool that is only used from softirq context. The advantage to this is that we do not need to call local_irq_save/restore which can be a significant savings. I also took the opportunity to refactor the core bits that were placed in __alloc_page_frag. First I updated the allocation to do either a 32K allocation or an order 0 page. This is based on the changes in commmit d9b2938a where it was found that latencies could be reduced in case of failures. Then I also rewrote the logic to work from the end of the page to the start. By doing this the size value doesn't have to be used unless we have run out of space for page fragments. Finally I cleaned up the atomic bits so that we just do an atomic_sub_and_test and if that returns true then we set the page->_count via an atomic_set. This way we can remove the extra conditional for the atomic_read since it would have led to an atomic_inc in the case of success anyway.
