Ding Tianhong says: ==================== add hisilicon hip04 ethernet driver v13: - Fix the problem of alignment parameters for function and checkpatch warming. v12: - According Alex's suggestion, modify the changelog and add MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE for hip04 ethernet. v11: - Add ethtool support for tx coalecse getting and setting, the xmit_more is not supported for this patch, but I think it could work for hip04, will support it later after some tests for performance better. Here are some performance test results by ping and iperf(add tx_coalesce_frames/users), it looks that the performance and latency is more better by tx_coalesce_frames/usecs. - Before: $ ping 192.168.1.1 ... === 192.168.1.1 ping statistics === 24 packets transmitted, 24 received, 0% packet loss, time 22999ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.180/0.202/0.403/0.043 ms $ iperf -c 192.168.1.1 ...

[ ID] Interval Transfer Bandwidth [ 3] 0.0- 1.0 sec 115 MBytes 965 Mbits/sec v10: - According Arnd's suggestion, remove the skb_orphan and use the hrtimer for the cleanup of the TX queue and add some modification for the hip04 drivers. 1) drop the broken skb_orphan call 2) drop the workqueue 3) batch cleanup based on tx_coalesce_frames/usecs for better throughput 4) use a reasonable default tx timeout (200us, could be shorted based on measurements) with a range timer 5) fix napi poll function return value 6) use a lockless queue for cleanup v9: - There is no tx completion interrupts to free DMAd Tx packets, it means taht we rely on new tx packets arriving to run the destructors of completed packets, which open up space in their sockets's send queues. Sometimes we don't get such new packets causing Tx to stall, a single UDP transmitter is a good example of this situation, so we need a clean up workqueue to reclaims completed packets, the workqueue will only free the last packets which is already stay for several jiffies. Also fix some format cleanups. v8: - Use poll to reclaim xmitted buffer as workaround since no tx done interrupt v7: - Remove select NET_CORE in 0002 v6: - Suggest by Russell: Use netdev_sent_queue & netdev_completed_queue to solve latency issue Also shorten the period of timer, which is used to wakeup the queue since no tx completed interrupt. v5: - no big change, fix typo v4: - Modify accoringly to the suggetion from Arnd, Florian, Eric, David Use of_parse_phandle_with_fixed_args & syscon_node_to_regmap get ppe info Add skb_orphan() and tx_timer for reclaim since no tx_finished interrupt Update timeout, and move of_phy_connect to probe to reuse open/stop v3: - Suggest from Arnd, use syscon & regmap_write/read to replace static void __iomem *ppebase. Modify hisilicon-hip04-net.txt accrordingly to suggestion from Florian and Sergei. v2: - Got many suggestions from Russell, Arnd, Florian, Mark and Sergei Remove memcpy, use dma_map/unmap_single, use dma_alloc_coherent rather than dma_pool, etc. Refer property in ethernet.txt, change ppe description, etc. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently `ethtool -S` simply returns "no stats available". It would be more useful to see what the various ethtool statistics registers' values are. This change implements get_ethtool_stats, get_strings, and get_sset_count functions to accomplish this. Read all GEM statistics registers and sum them into macb.ethtool_stats. Add the necessary infrastructure to make this accessible via `ethtool -S`. Update gem_update_stats to utilize ethtool_stats. Signed-off-by: Xander Huff <xander.huff@ni.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Eliminate all the duplicate code for making Tx requests by consolidating them into a single xennet_make_one_txreq() function. xennet_make_one_txreq() and xennet_make_txreqs() work with pages and offsets so it will be easier to make netfront handle highmem frags in the future.

tc code implicitly considers skb->protocol even in case of accelerated vlan paths and expects vlan protocol type here. However, on rx path, if the vlan header was already stripped, skb->protocol contains value of next header. Similar situation is on tx path. So for skbs that use skb->vlan_tci for tagging, use skb->vlan_proto instead.

This patch fixes the rx packet length check in the sunvnet driver to allow for a TSO max packet length greater than the LDC channel negotiated MTU. These are negotiated separately and there is no requirement that port->tsolen be less than port->rmtu, but if it isn't, it'll drop packets with rx length errors.

Not all architectures are able to call __builtin_return_address(). On ARM, the mISDN code produces this warning: hardware/mISDN/w6692.c: In function 'w6692_dctrl': hardware/mISDN/w6692.c:1181:75: warning: unsupported argument to '__builtin_return_address' pr_debug("%s: %s dev(%d) open from %p\n", card->name, __func__, ^ hardware/mISDN/mISDNipac.c: In function 'open_dchannel': hardware/mISDN/mISDNipac.c:759:75: warning: unsupported argument to '__builtin_return_address' pr_debug("%s: %s dev(%d) open from %p\n", isac->name, __func__, ^ In a lot of cases, this is relatively easy to work around by passing the value of __builtin_return_address(0) from the callers into the functions that want it. One exception is the indirect 'open' function call in struct isac_hw. While it would be possible to fix this as well, this patch only addresses the other callers properly and lets this one return the direct parent function, which should be good enough.

The return type of find_first_bit() is architecture specific, on ARM it is 'unsigned int', while the asm-generic code used on x86 and a lot of other architectures returns 'unsigned long'.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-01-13 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. Mitch provides a fix for i40e to move the call to pci_disable_sriov() so that it is called earlier to ensure that the PF driver won't free VF resources before the VF remove routine can complete. Also cleans up redundant and duplicate code in the i40evf. Refactors the i40evf shutdown code and let the watchdog take care of shutting things down. Fix a possible memory leak, if we are using VLANs and the communication with the PF fail during shutdown. On some versions of the firmware, the VF admin send queue may become stalled. In this case, the easiest solution is to place another descriptor on the queue and the firmware will then process both requests. Greg adds a warning when the NPAR enabled partitions detected a link speed less than 10 Gpbs. Vasu removes redundant VN2VN MAC address which were already added by the FCoE stack. Shannon adds code to find how many partitions there are per port and what is the current partition_id when in NPAR mode. In multifunction mode, make sure we only allow SR/IOV on the master PF of a port and only allow partition 1 to set WoL, speed and flow control. Kamil adds code to read the PBA block from shadow RAM and returns the part number in a string format. Catherine provides a fix to check if link state and link speed has changed before exiting link event v2: remove un-needed {} in patch #3 of the series based on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Make sure we only allow SR/IOV on the master PF of a port in multifunction mode. This should be the case anyway based on the num_vfs configured in the NVM, but this will help make sure there's no question. If we're not in multifunction mode the partition_id will always be 1.

On some versions of the firmware, the VF admin send queue may become stalled. In this case, the easiest solution is to just place another descriptor on the queue; the firmware will then process both requests. The early init code already accounts for this, but the runtime code does not. In the watchdog task, check for the stall condition, and if it's found, send our API version to the PF. When the PF replies, just ignore the reply.

There is always a possibility that MSI-X interrupts can get lost. To keep this problem from stalling the driver, we fire all of our MSI-X vectors during the watchdog routine. However, we should not fire the traffic vectors when the interface is closed. In this case, just fire vector 0, which is used for admin queue events. As a result, we do not enable the interrupt cause for vector 0. This can cause the admin queue handler to be called reentrantly, which causes a scary "critical section violation" message to be logged, even though no real damage is done.
