The mac address is already stored in the sprom structure by the platform code of the SoC this Ethernet core is found on, it just has to be fetched from this structure instead of accessing the nvram here. This patch also adds a return value to indicate if a mac address could be fetched from the sprom structure. When CONFIG_SSB_DRIVER_GIGE is not set the header file now also declares ssb_gige_get_macaddr(). Signed-off-by:

Instead of calling 3 times ntohs(random->param_hdr.length), 2 times ntohs(hmacs->param_hdr.length), and 3 times ntohs(chunks->param_hdr.length) within the same function, we only call each once and store it in a variable. Signed-off-by:

Fix issue in Mellanox driver related to BQL. netdev_tx_reset_queue was not being called in certain situations where the device was being start and stopped. Moved netdev_tx_reset_queue from the reset device path to mlx4_en_free_tx_buf which is where the rings are cleaned in a reset (specifically from device being stopped). Signed-off-by:

Amir Vadai says: ==================== This series from Yan Burman adds support for unicast MAC address filtering and ndo FDB operations. It also includes some optimizations to loopback related decisions and checks in the TX/RX fast path and one cleanup, all in separate patches. Today, when adding macvlan devices, the NIC goes into promiscuous mode, since unicast MAC filtering is not supported. With these changes, macvlan devices can be added without the penalty of promiscuous mode. If for some reason adding a unicast address filter fails e.g as of missing space in the HW mac table, the device forces itself into promiscuous mode (and out of this forced state when enough space is available). Also, now it is possible to have bridge under multi-function configuration that include PF and VFs. In order to use bridge over PF/VFs, VM MAC fdb entries must be added e.g. using 'bridge fdb add' command. Changes from v1 - based on more comments from Eric Dumazet: * added failure handling when adding unicast address filter Changes from v0 - based on comments from Eric Dumazet: * Removed unneeded synchronize_rcu() * Use kfree_rcu() instead of synchronize_rcu() + kfree() ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Add support for setting embedded switch fdb in case of SRIOV, by implementing ndo_fdb_{add, del, dump}. This will allow to use bridged configuration with multi-function. In order to add VM MAC to the eSwitch fdb, the following command may be used over the relevant function interface: bridge fdb add <MAC> permanent self dev <IFACE> Signed-off-by:Yan Burman <yanb@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by:

Implement and advertise unicast MAC filtering, such that setting macvlan instance over mlx4_en interfaces will not require the networking core to put mlx4_en devices in promiscuous mode. If for some reason adding a unicast address filter fails e.g as of missing space in the HW mac table, the device forces itself into promiscuous mode (and out of this forced state when enough space is available).

Currently, mlx4_en_do_set_multicast serves as the ndo_set_rx_mode entry for mlx4_en, doing all related work. Split it to few calls, one per required functionality (e.g multicast, promiscuous, etc) and rename some structures and calls to use rx_mode notation instead of multicast. Signed-off-by:

Move low level code that deals with management of Ethernet MACs and QPs from mlx4_core to mlx4_en. Also convert the new functions to deal with MACs in form of char array instead of u64. Actual functions moved: mlx4_replace_mac mlx4_get_eth_qp mlx4_put_eth_qp To conduct this change, some functionality had to be exported from the core, the following functions were added: mlx4_get_base_qp __mlx4_replace_mac (low level function for CX1/A0 compatibility) Signed-off-by:

Yan Burman authored
Currently, RX path code that does RX filtering is not optimized and does an expensive conversion. In order to use ether_addr_equal_64bits which is optimized for such cases, we need the MAC address kept by the device to be in the form of unsigned char array instead of u64. Store the MAC address as unsigned char array and convert to/from u64 out of the fast path when needed. Side effect of this is that we no longer need priv->mac, since it's the same as dev->dev_addr. This optimization was suggested by Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

Yan Burman authored
Currently there are relatively complex conditional checks in the fast path, for TX loopback enabling and resulting RX filter logic. Move elaborate if's out of data path, replace them with a single flag for each state and update that state from appropriate places. Also, in native (non SRIOV) mode and not in loopback or in selftest, there is no need to try and filter out packets that HW loopback-ed, as in native mode we do not loopback packets anymore.

On 64 bit arches : There is a off-by-one error in qdisc_pkt_len_init() because mac_header is not set in xmit path. skb_mac_header() returns an out of bound value that was harmless because hdr_len is an 'unsigned int' On 32bit arches, the error is abysmal.

skb_gso_segment() is almost always called in tx path, except for openvswitch. It calls this function when it receives the packet and tries to queue it to user-space. In this special case, the ->ip_summed check inside skb_gso_segment() is no longer true, as ->ip_summed value has different meanings on rx path. This patch adjusts skb_gso_segment() so that we can at least avoid such warnings on checksum. Cc: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Cc: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net> Signed-off-by:

Some modes don't require any special carrier handling so in these cases, the kernel can control the carrier as for any other interface. However, some other modes, e.g. lacp, requires more than just that, so userspace needs to control the carrier itself. The daemon today is ready to control it, but the kernel still can change it based on events. This fix so that either kernel or userspace is controlling the carrier. Signed-off-by:

Ivan Vercera was recently backporting commit 9c13cb8b to a RHEL kernel, and I noticed that, while this patch protects the tg3 driver from having its ndo_poll_controller routine called during device initalization, it does nothing for the driver during shutdown. I.e. it would be entirely possible to have the ndo_poll_controller method (or subsequently the ndo_poll) routine called for a driver in the netpoll path on CPU A while in parallel on CPU B, the ndo_close or ndo_open routine could be called. Given that the two latter routines tend to initizlize and free many data structures that the former two rely on, the result can easily be data corruption or various other crashes. Furthermore, it seems that this is potentially a problem with all net drivers that support netpoll, and so this should ideally be fixed in a common path. As Ben H Pointed out to me, we can't preform dev_open/dev_close in atomic context, so I've come up with this solution. We can use a mutex to sleep in open/close paths and just do a mutex_trylock in the napi poll path and abandon the poll attempt if we're locked, as we'll just retry the poll on the next send anyway. I've tested this here by flooding netconsole with messages on a system whos nic driver I modfied to periodically return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, so that the netpoll tx workqueue would be forced to send frames and poll the device. While this was going on I rapidly ifdown/up'ed the interface and watched for any problems. I've not found any. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to e1000e and ixgbe. Majority of the patches are against e1000e, where Bruce makes several cosmetic #define moves into header files. In addition, Bruce does a cleanup of braces to resolve checkpatch warnings (when using the strict option). Ixgbe patches contain several fixes as well as updating the copyright. The fixes from Josh Hay, resolved a possible NULL pointer dereference and resolved Smatch warnings by fixing return values and memcpy parameters. Alex provides 2 fixes, the first is to replace rmb() with read_barrier_depends() in the Tx cleanup. The second fixes an MTU warning when using SR-IOV which corrects the fact that we were using 1522 to test for the max frame size in ixgbe_change_mtu and 1518 in ixgbe_set_vf_lpe. The difference was the addition of VLAN_HLEN, which we only need to add in the case of computing a buffer size, but not a filter size. Lastly, a patch from Emil which is based on a community patch from Aurélien Guillaume which adds functions needed for reading SFF-8472 diagnostic data from SFP modules. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

When creating unmanaged tunnel sockets we should honour the network namespace passed to l2tp_tunnel_create. Furthermore, unmanaged tunnel sockets should not hold a reference to the network namespace lest they accidentally keep alive a namespace which should otherwise have been released. Unmanaged tunnel sockets now drop their namespace reference via sk_change_net, and are released in a new pernet exit callback, l2tp_exit_net. Signed-off-by:
