This patch benefits from newly introduced switchdev notifier and uses it to propagate fdb learn events from rocker driver to bridge. That avoids direct function calls and possible use by other listeners (ovs).

This patch introduces new notifier for purposes of exposing events which happen on switch driver side. The consumers of the event messages are mainly involved masters, namely bridge and ovs. Suggested-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us> Signed-off-by: Scott Feldman <sfeldma@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch is concerned with migrating the time variables for the s390 network drivers. The changes handle the y2038 problem where timespec will overflow in the year 2038. timespec was replaced by unsigned long and all time variables get their values from the jiffies global variable.

problems with bridge getlink/setlink notifications today: - bridge setlink generates two notifications to userspace - one from the bridge driver - one from rtnetlink.c (rtnl_bridge_notify) - dellink generates one notification from rtnetlink.c. Which means bridge setlink and dellink notifications are not consistent - Looking at the code it appears, If both BRIDGE_FLAGS_MASTER and BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF were set, the size calculation in rtnl_bridge_notify can be wrong. Example: if you set both BRIDGE_FLAGS_MASTER and BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF in a setlink request to rocker dev, rtnl_bridge_notify will allocate skb for one set of bridge attributes, but, both the bridge driver and rocker dev will try to add attributes resulting in twice the number of attributes being added to the skb. (rocker dev calls ndo_dflt_bridge_getlink) There are multiple options: 1) Generate one notification including all attributes from master and self: But, I don't think it will work, because both master and self may use the same attributes/policy. Cannot pack the same set of attributes in a single notification from both master and slave (duplicate attributes). 2) Generate one notification from master and the other notification from self (This seems to be ideal): For master: the master driver will send notification (bridge in this example) For self: the self driver will send notification (rocker in the above example. It can use helpers from rtnetlink.c to do so. Like the ndo_dflt_bridge_getlink api). This patch implements 2) (leaving the 'rtnl_bridge_notify' around to be used with 'self'). v1->v2 : - rtnl_bridge_notify is now called only for self, so, remove 'BRIDGE_FLAGS_SELF' check and cleanup a few things - rtnl_bridge_dellink used to always send a RTM_NEWLINK msg earlier. So, I have changed the notification from br_dellink to go as RTM_NEWLINK Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-01-16 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf. This series is a little bit larger than normal because two of the patches are version bumps. Shannon provides tweaks to i40e and i40evf to keep the firmware, software and silicon validation in line together by removing unused and deprecated code, adding define for iSCSI and fix queue mask size. Fix i40e so we do not give up in the reset/rebuild process if DCB setup fails, just handle it the same as in the probe setup. Cleans up PTP log messages by removing the use of __func__ as we are not using that any longer and removes the netdev name, since that can change and can be misleading. Adds struct size checks to indirect and command structs that were left out previously. Added admin queue API updates (LLDP control, OEM OCSD and OCBB commands). Kevin increases ASQ timeout for scenarios with multi-function devices. Carolyn fixes a problem where the interrupts descriptions from the MSIx configuration were truncating the needed bus info, which makes it hard to distinguish configurations from port to port. Increased the string buffer size in order to allow the full data to be displayed. Sravanthi cleans up the dump stats string from debugfs. Jacob updates i40e to only enable the PTP interrupt in PFs which have PTP enabled, instead of blindly enabling the PTP interrupt flags for all PFs. Also updated i40e so that we do not do Tx or Rx timestamps if we do not have PTP enabled. Added the same check against pf->ptp_rx as we have in Rx timestamp code path because it is possible that the user can configure only Tx hardware timestamping so we do not want to check for Rx timestamp hang since the software won't be handling them. Neerav updates the driver to disable firmware LLDP agent for NICs with a firmware version lower than v4.3 and added a message when this happens. Adds parsing and reporting of iSCSI capability for a given device or function, as well as adding support for iSCSI partition type with DCB in NPAR mode. v2: - Dropped patch 10 "i40e: clean up PTP log messages" based on feedback from David Laight and David Miller - Split up the original patch 13 "i40e: AQ API updates for new commands" into 2 patches (now #12 & #13) based on feedback from Or Gerlitz ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

The auto negotiation logic was geared to being the initiator of the auto negotiation. This presented problems when auto negotiation was initiated by the remote end. Change the auto negotiation logic to make use of the auto negotiation event interrupt thus allowing the auto negotiation state machine to function properly in either scenario.

Since the Tx ring cleanup can run at the same time that data is being transmitted, a spin lock was used to protect the ring. This patch eliminates the need for Tx spinlocks by updating the current ring position only after all ownership bits for data being transmitted have been set. This will insure that ring operations in the Tx cleanup path do not interfere with the ring operations in the Tx transmit path.

Add parsing and reporting of iSCSI capability for a given device or function. Also add support for iSCSI partition type with DCB in NPAR mode. In this mode it is expected that software would configure both the LAN and iSCSI traffic classes for the iSCSI partition; whereas all the NIC type partitions will use LAN TC (TC0) only. Hence, the patch enables querying of DCB configuration in MFP mode and configures TCs for iSCSI partition type. Though NIC type partitions may not have more than 1 TC enabled for them the port may have multiple TCs enabled and hence I40E_FLAG_DCB_ENABLED will be set/reset on all the partitions based on number of TCs on the port. This is required as in DCB environment it is expected that all traffic will be priority tagged.

Instead of leaving the Rx timestamps in the same mode as before if we disable the Rx logic, we can set it into a mode that has the fewest possible timestamps generated. To do this, select only V1 mode, but do not enable UDP packet recognition. This should eliminate all (or at least almost all) Rx timestamps, since V1 packets are always over UDP.

It's possible that the user configured only Tx hardware timestamping, and thus we might be receiving PTP traffic which we timestamp but which software never reads. In this case we don't want to check for Rx timestamp hang, because we already know that software won't be handling them. Thus, we add the same check against pf->ptp_rx as we have in the Rx timestamp code path.
