kfree_skb assumes that an skb is dropped after an failure and notes that. consume_skb should be used in non-failure situations. Such information is important for dropmonitor netlink which tells how many packets were dropped and where this drop happened. Signed-off-by:

With this patch, (re)broadcasting on a specific interfaces is avoided: * No neighbor: There is no need to broadcast on an interface if there is no node behind it. * Single neighbor is source: If there is just one neighbor on an interface and if this neighbor is the one we actually got this broadcast packet from, then we do not need to echo it back. * Single neighbor is originator: If there is just one neighbor on an interface and if this neighbor is the originator of this broadcast packet, then we do not need to echo it back. Goodies for BATMAN V: ("Upgrade your BATMAN IV network to V now to get these for free!") Thanks to the split of OGMv1 into two packet types, OGMv2 and ELP that is, we can now apply the same optimizations stated above to OGMv2 packets, too. Furthermore, with BATMAN V, rebroadcasts can be reduced in certain multi interface cases, too, where BATMAN IV cannot. This is thanks to the removal of the "secondary interface originator" concept in BATMAN V. Signed-off-by:Linus Lüssing <linus.luessing@c0d3.blue> Signed-off-by:

Instead of latching onto the OGM period, this patch introduces a worker dedicated to multicast TT and TVLV updates. The reasoning is, that upon roaming especially the translation table should be updated timely to minimize connectivity issues. With BATMAN V, the idea is to greatly increase the OGM interval to reduce overhead. Unfortunately, right now this could lead to a bad user experience if multicast traffic is involved. Therefore this patch introduces a fixed 500ms update interval for multicast TT entries and the multicast TVLV. Signed-off-by:

During broadcast queueing, the skb_reset_mac_header() sets the skb to a place invalid for a MAC header, pointing right into the batman-adv broadcast packet. Luckily, no one seems to actually use eth_hdr(skb) afterwards until batadv_send_skb_packet() resets the header to a valid position again. Therefore removing this unnecessary, weird skb_reset_mac_header() call. Signed-off-by:

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== 40GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2016-10-28 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Carolyn provides a couple of fixes, first resolving a problem in the client interface that was causing random stack traces in the RDMA driver which was due to a timing related NULL pointer dereference. Fixed a problem where it could take a very long time to print the link down notification, by changing how often we update link info from firmware. Alex provides a number of changes, first is a re-write of the bust wait loop in the Flow Director transmit function to reduce code size. Cleans up unused code in favor of the same functionality which can be inlined. Dropped the functionality for SCTP since we cannot currently support it. Cleans up redundant code in the receive clean-up path. Finally cleaned up the convoluted configuration for how the driver handled the debug flags contained in msg_level. Filip fixes an incorrect bit mask which was being used for testing the "get link status". Cleaned up a workaround that is no longer needed for production NICs and was causing frames to pass while disregarding the VLAN tagging. Mitch brings another fix for the client interface supporting the VF RDMA driver to allow clients to recover from reset by re-opening existing clients. Alan fixes a bug in which a "perfect storm" can occur and cause interrupts to fail to be correctly affinitized. Lihong fixes a confusing dmesg reported when users were using ethtool -L option. ==================== Signed-off-by: -

Per listen(fd, backlog) rules, there is really no point accepting a SYN, sending a SYNACK, and dropping the following ACK packet if accept queue is full, because application is not draining accept queue fast enough. This behavior is fooling TCP clients that believe they established a flow, while there is nothing at server side. They might then send about 10 MSS (if using IW10) that will be dropped anyway while server is under stress. Signed-off-by:

This commit brings the virtio-net device in compliance with VIRTIO-152. Additionally, drop the max_mtu branch - it cannot be taken since the u16 returned by virtio_cread16 will never exceed the initial value of max_mtu. Signed-off-by:

So the i40e driver had a really convoluted configuration for how to handle the debug flags contained in msg_level. Part of the issue is that the driver has its own 32 bit mask that it was using to track a separate set of debug features. From what I can tell it was trying to use the upper 4 bits to determine if the value was meant to represent a bit-mask or the numeric value provided by debug level. What this patch does is clean this up by compressing those 4 bits into bit 31, as a result we just have to perform a check against the value being negative to determine if we are looking at a debug level (positive), or a debug mask (negative). The debug level will populate the msg_level, and the debug mask will populate the debug_mask in the hardware struct. I added similar logic for ethtool. If the value being provided has bit 31 set we assume the value being provided is a debug mask, otherwise we assume it is a msg_enable mask. For displaying we only provide the msg_enable, and if debug_mask is in use we will print it to the dmesg log. Lastly I removed the debugfs interface. It is redundant with what we already have in ethtool and really doesn't belong anyway. Signed-off-by:

Patch a036244c "i40e: Fix kernel panic on enable/disable LLDP" introduced an error in bit logic. Originally this bit manipulation was meant to clear two bits to indicate that DCB was not enabled or capable. An "&" was incorrectly used instead of an "|" bit operator to combine the two bitmasks into one. This also created a static checker error since the resultant code was a no-op. This patch fixes the error by using the correct bit-wise operator. Signed-off-by:

This is code refactoring. This patch removes the workaround which deleted a default MAC filter added by the firmware when the interface was brought up. This filter caused frames to pass disregarding the VLAN tagging. It used to be automatically applied after reset in pre-SRA FW versions. This workaround is not needed in production NICs and hence can be removed. Change-ID: I129fe1aae1f17b5a224c9b29a996d916aa1be1ec Signed-off-by:

This patch cleans up several pieces of redundant code in the Rx clean-up paths. The first bit is that hdr_addr and the status_err_len portions of the Rx descriptor represent the same value. As such there is no point in setting them to 0 before setting them to 0. I'm dropping the second spot where we are updating the value to 0 so that we only have 1 write for this value instead of 2. The second piece is the checking for the DD bit in the packet. We only need to check for a non-zero value for the status_err_len because if the device is done with the descriptor it will have written something back and the DD is just one piece of it. In addition I have moved the reading of the Rx descriptor bits related to rx_ptype down so that they are actually below the dma_rmb() call so that we are guaranteed that we don't have any funky 64b on 32b calls causing any ordering issues.

Ethtool -L option with the combined parameter is for changing the number of multi-purpose channels of the specified network device. The pre-set maximum for the combined channels is cpu dependent. Currently, for an i40e device, when the user sets a value between 64 and the maximum that the cpu can support for the combined parameter, the i40e driver displays the confusing info in dmesg to only show 64 as the RSS count regardless of what the accepted user input is as long as it is larger than 64. This patch fixes the message in the i40e driver when the user uses ethtool -L to change the number of the combined channels to consistently display the user requested value if it is valid and accepted by ethtool.

There exists a bug in which a 'perfect storm' can occur and cause interrupts to fail to be correctly affinitized. This causes unexpected behavior and has a substantial impact on performance when it happens. The bug occurs if there is heavy traffic, any number of CPUs that have an i40e interrupt are pegged at 100%, and the interrupt afffinity for those CPUs is changed. Instead of moving to the new CPU, the interrupt continues to be polled while there is heavy traffic. The bug is most readily realized as the driver is first brought up and all interrupts start on CPU0. If there is heavy traffic and the interrupt starts polling before the interrupt is affinitized, the interrupt will be stuck on CPU0 until traffic stops. The bug, however, can also be wrought out more simply by affinitizing all the interrupts to a single CPU and then attempting to move any of those interrupts off while there is heavy traffic. This patch fixes the bug by registering for update notifications from the kernel when the interrupt affinity changes. When that fires, we cache the intended affinity mask. Then, while polling, if the cpu is pegged at 100% and we failed to clean the rings, we check to make sure we have the correct affinity and stop polling if we're firing on the wrong CPU. When the kernel successfully moves the interrupt, it will start polling on the correct CPU. The performance impact is minimal since the only time this section gets executed is when performance is already compromised by the CPU.

Allow the client interface to reopen existing clients if they were closed. This allows clients to recover from reset, which is essential for supporting VF RDMA. In one instance, the driver was not clearing the open bit when the client was closed. Add the code to clear this bit so that the state is accurate and the driver will not attempt to reopen already-open clients. Remove the ref_cnt variable; it was just getting in the way and was not being used consistently. Change-ID: Ic71af4553b096963ac0c56a997f887c9a4ed162d Signed-off-by:

We cannot currently support SCTP in the hardware, and IPV4_FLOW is not used anywhere by the software so we can go through and drop the functionality related to these two flow types. In addition we cannot support masking based on the protocol value so if the user is expecting a value other than TCP or UDP we should simply return an error rather then trying to allocate a filter for a rule that will only partially match what the user requested.
