Currently a valid sta_id is assumed to mean that the queue is meant to also be aggregated, but that assumption will not be true in the future, so don't make it in the lower level but only in the inline wrapper.

Configuring the hw scheduler during queue enablement is done by writing the appropriate values to the scheduler peripherals, and it is essentially the same for all buses. Whenever writing is done via the standard iwl_write_prph, we can avoid duplicating the code for each bus. Those operations are queue deactivation, RA/TID mapping, chain-building settings, enabling/disabling aggregations and activating/deactivating the TX FIFOs. Consolidate this code using static inlines in a new header file.

Add a new iwl_mvm_power_update_ps() function that allows only ps to be updated according to changes in the vifs.

With a significant number of deployed APs, enabling uAPSD leads to the AP never using aggregation sessions (likely due to the complexities involved in handling uAPSD in those.) This obviously results in a large drop in throughput with such APs. On the other hand, uAPSD can result in some power consumption benefits, but for now just disable it to get performance with affected APs back up.

Since we can't read the actual temperature when the firmware is running, just set the temperature to 0 when the test is disabled and disable CT Kill if it was enabled. Additionally, since we rely on iwl_mvm_tt_handler() to exit CT kill when in test mode, call iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() in that function if the temperature is low again. Also make the iwl_mvm_enter_ctkill() and iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() return if called when not necessary anymore (e.g. when iwl_mvm_exit_ctkill() is called when we're not in CT-kill).

By default, when uapsd is not used, the ucode uses null data packet to exit power-save and get then pending frames. However, some tests require the explicit usage of ps-poll. Allow setting use_ps_poll power option (through debugfs) to configure the ucode to use ps-poll instead.

This allows to leave a frame in the Tx Fifo which allows the firmware to try to enter burst mode. The end result of this is a better latency since the firmware utilises the TxOP better. Also limit the AMPDU size to the limit set in the ADDBA response. This doesn't change much since the AMPDU size was limited by the configuration of the hardware scheduler, but here we add a software limit by the mean of the link quality command.

In SCTP, selection of active (T.ACT) and retransmission (T.RET) transports is being done whenever transport control operations (UP, DOWN, PF, ...) are engaged through sctp_assoc_control_transport(). Commits 4c47af4d ("net: sctp: rework multihoming retransmission path selection to rfc4960") and a7288c4d ("net: sctp: improve sctp_select_active_and_retran_path selection") have both improved it towards a more fine-grained and optimal path selection. Currently, the selection algorithm for T.ACT and T.RET is as follows: 1) Elect the two most recently used ACTIVE transports T1, T2 for T.ACT, T.RET, where T.ACT<-T1 and T1 is most recently used 2) In case primary path T.PRI not in {T1, T2} but ACTIVE, set T.ACT<-T.PRI and T.RET<-T1 3) If only T1 is ACTIVE from the set, set T.ACT<-T1 and T.RET<-T1 4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT<-best(T.PRI, T.RET, T3) where T3 is the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.PRI Prior to above commits, 4) was simply a camp on T.ACT<-T.PRI and T.RET<-T.PRI, ignoring possible paths in PF. Camping on T.PRI is still slightly suboptimal as it can lead to the following scenario: Setup: <A> <B> T1: p1p1 (10.0.10.10) <==> .'`) <==> p1p1 (10.0.10.12) <= T.PRI T2: p1p2 (10.0.10.20) <==> (_ . ) <==> p1p2 (10.0.10.22) net.sctp.rto_min = 1000 net.sctp.path_max_retrans = 2 net.sctp.pf_retrans = 0 net.sctp.hb_interval = 1000 T.PRI is permanently down, T2 is put briefly into PF state (e.g. due to link flapping). Here, the first time transmission is sent over PF path T2 as it's the only non-INACTIVE path, but the retransmitted data-chunks are sent over the INACTIVE path T1 (T.PRI), which is not good. After the patch, it's choosing better transports in both cases by modifying step 4): 4) If none is ACTIVE, set T.ACT_new<-best(T.ACT_old, T3) where T3 is the most recently used (if avail) in PF, set T.RET<-T.ACT_new This will still select a best possible path in PF if available (which can also include T.PRI/T.RET), and set both T.ACT/T.RET to it. In case sctp_assoc_control_transport() *just* put T.ACT_old into INACTIVE as it transitioned from ACTIVE->PF->INACTIVE and stays in INACTIVE just for a very short while before going back ACTIVE, it will guarantee that this path will be reselected for T.ACT/T.RET since T3 (PF) is not available. Previously, this was not possible, as we would only select between T.PRI and T.RET, and a possible T3 would be NULL due to the fact that we have just transitioned T3 in sctp_assoc_control_transport() from PF->INACTIVE and would select a suboptimal path when T.PRI/T.RET have worse properties. In the case that T.ACT_old permanently went to INACTIVE during this transition and there's no PF path available, plus T.PRI and T.RET are INACTIVE as well, we would now camp on T.ACT_old, but if everything is being INACTIVE there's really not much we can do except hoping for a successful HB to bring one of the transports back up again and, thus cause a new selection through sctp_assoc_control_transport(). Now both tests work fine: Case 1: 1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET 2. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET T2 S(PF) 3. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET T2 S(INACTIVE) 5. T1 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET T2 S(INACTIVE) [ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET T2 S(INACTIVE) ] 6. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET T2 S(INACTIVE) 7. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET Case 2: 1. T1 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT T2 S(ACTIVE) T.RET 2. T1 S(PF) T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET 3. T1 S(INACTIVE) T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET 5. T1 S(INACTIVE) T2 S(PF) T.ACT, T.RET [ 5.1 T1 S(INACTIVE) T2 S(INACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET ] 6. T1 S(INACTIVE) T2 S(ACTIVE) T.ACT, T.RET 7.

When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci. This leads to two things: 1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID. 2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it. mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

The current kernel hang on i.MX6SX with rootfs mount from MMC. The root cause is that ptp uses a periodic timer to access enet register even if ipg clock is disabled. FEC ptp driver start one period timer to read 1588 counter register in the ptp init function that is called after FEC driver is probed. To save power, after FEC probe finish, FEC driver disable all clocks including ipg clock that is needed for register access. i.MX5x, i.MX6q/dl/sl FEC register access don't cause system hang when ipg clock is disabled, just return zero value. But for i.MX6sx SOC, it cause system hang. To avoid the issue, we need to check ptp clock status before ptp timer count access.

Description of problem: The NIC card is not reporting back to the driver the transmitted skbs, so they get stuck in the TX ring causing issues with reference counters in other kernel components. Developed a new Automatic Egress Queue Update firmware facility to slowly tick through Egress Queues and send back any outstanding CIDX Updates which are laying around.

The next patch is contributed by Dan Carpenter, it fixes the error handling in the c_can's probe function. Then there are two patches for the flexcan driver, one by Alexander Stein, which fixes the resetting of the bus error interrupt mask, the other one by Sebastian Andrzej Siewior which adds an additional error state transition message. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
