2013-02-15ixgbe: cleanup error checking in ixgbe_identify_sfp_module_generic()Emil Tantilov

2013-02-15ixgbe: Add support for set_channels ethtool operationAlexander Duyck
This change adds support for the ethtool set_channels operation. Since the ixgbe driver has to support DCB as well as the other modes the assumption I made here is that the number of channels in DCB modes refers to the number of queues per traffic class, not the number of queues total.

This change updates the ixgbe driver to use __netdev_pick_tx instead of the current logic it is using to select a queue. The main result of this change is that ixgbe can now fully support XPS, and in the case of non-FCoE enabled configs it means we don't need to have our own ndo_select_queue.

2013-02-15ixgbe: Define FCoE and Flow director limits much sooner to allow for changesAlexander Duyck
Instead of adjusting the FCoE and Flow director limits based on the number of CPUs we can define them much sooner. This allows the user to come through later and adjust them once we have updated the code to support the set_channels ethtool operation. I am still allowing for FCoE and RSS queues to be separated if the number queues is less than the number of CPUs. This essentially treats the two groupings like they are two separate traffic classes. In addition I am changing the initialization to use the MAX_TX/RX_QUEUES defines instead of trying to compute the value as it will be possible in upcoming patches for the user to request the maximum number of queues. I have also updated things so that the upper limit on queues is exactly 63 instead of allowing it to go up to 64. The reason for this change is to address the fact thqt the driver only supports up to 63 queue vectors since the hardware supports 64 MSI-X vectors, but one must be reserved for "other" causes.

2013-02-15igbvf: Make next_to_watch a pointer and adjust memory barriers to avoid racesAlexander Duyck
This change is meant to address several race issues that become possible because next_to_watch could possibly be set to a value that shows that the descriptor is done when it is not. In order to correct that we instead make next_to_watch a pointer that is set to NULL during cleanup, and set to the eop_desc after the descriptor rings have been written. To enforce proper ordering the next_to_watch pointer is not set until after a wmb writing the values to the last descriptor in a transmit. In order to guarantee that the descriptor is not read until after the eop_desc we use the read_barrier_depends which is only really necessary on the alpha architecture.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== This series contains updates to igb and ixgbe. Most of the changes are against igb, except for one patch against ixgbe. There are 3 igb fixes from Carolyn which were reported by Dan Carpenter which resolve issues found in the get_i2c_client(). Alex does some cleanup of the igb driver to match similar functionality in ixgbe on transmit. Alex also makes it so that we can enable the use of build_skb for cases where jumbo frames are disabled. The advantage to this is that we do not have to perform a memcpy to populate the header and as a result we see a significant performance improvement. Akeem provides 4 patches to initialize function pointers and do a re-factoring of the function pointers in igb_get_variants() to assist with driver debugging. The ixgbe patch comes from Emil to reshuffle the switch/case structure of the flag assignment to allow for the flags to be set for each MAC type separately. This is needed for new hardware that does not have feature parity with older hardware. v2: updated patches 4 & 5 based on feedback from Ben Hutchings and Eric Dumazet ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-02-15igb: Update igb to use a path similar to ixgbe to determine when to stop TxAlexander Duyck
After reviewing the igb and ixgbe code I realized there are a few issues in how the code is structured. Specifically we are not checking the size of the buffers being used in transmits and we are not using the same value to determine when to stop or start a Tx queue. As such the code is prone to be buggy. This patch makes it so that we have one value DESC_NEEDED that we will use for starting and stopping the queue. In addition we will check the size of buffers being used when setting up a transmit so as to avoid a possible buffer overrun if we were to receive a frame with a block of data larger than 32K in skb->data.

2013-02-15mac80211: stop toggling IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40Johannes Berg
For VHT, many more bandwidth changes are possible. As a first step, stop toggling the IEEE80211_HT_CAP_SUP_WIDTH_20_40 flag in the HT capabilities and instead introduce a bandwidth field indicating the currently usable bandwidth to transmit to the station. Of course, make all drivers use it. To achieve this, make ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() get the station as an argument, rather than the new capabilities, so it can set up the new bandwidth field. If the station is a VHT station and VHT bandwidth is in use, also set the bandwidth accordingly. Doing this allows us to get rid of the supports_40mhz flag as the HT capabilities now reflect the true capability instead of the current setting. While at it, also fix ieee80211_ht_cap_ie_to_sta_ht_cap() to not ignore HT cap overrides when MCS TX isn't supported (not that it really happens...)

2013-02-14gianfar: Fix and cleanup Rx FCB indicationClaudiu Manoil
This fixes a less obvious error on one hand, and prevents futher similar errors by disambiguating and optimizing RxFCB indication, on the other hand. The error consists in NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX flag being used as an indication of Rx FCB insertion. This happened as soon gfar_uses_fcb(), which despite its name indicates Rx FCB insertion, started incorporating is_vlan_on(). is_vlan_on(), on the other hand, is also a misleading construct because we need to differentiate b/w hw VLAN extraction/VLEX (marked by VLAN_RX flag) and hw VLAN insertion/VLINS (VLAN_TX flag), which are different mechanisms using different types of FCBs. The hw spec for the RxFCB feature is as follows: In the case of RxBD rings, FCBs (Frame Control Block) are inserted by the eTSEC whenever RCTRL[PRSDEP] is set to a non-zero value. Only one FCB is inserted per frame (in the buffer pointed to by the RxBD with bit F set). TOE acceleration for receive is enabled for all rx frames in this case. This patch introduces priv->uses_rxfcb field to quickly signal RxFCB insertion in accordance with the specification above. The dependency on FSL_GIANFAR_DEV_HAS_TIMER was also eliminated as another source of confusion. The actual dependency is to priv->hwts_rx_en. Upon changing priv->hwts_rx_en via IOCTL, the gfar device is being restarted and on init_mac() the priv->hwts_rx_en flag determines RxFCB insertion, and rctrl is programmed accordingly. The patch takes care of this case too. Though maybe not as self documenting as the inlining version uses_fcb(), priv->uses_rxfcb has the main purpose to quickly signal, on the hot path, that the incoming frame has a *Rx* FCB block inserted which needs to be pulled out before passing the skb to the stack. This is a performance critical operation, it needs to happen fast, that's why uses_rxfcb is placed in the first cacheline of gfar_private. This is also why a cached rctrl cannot be used instead: 1) because we don't have 32 bits available in the first cacheline of gfar_priv (but only 16); 2) bit operations are expensive on the hot path.

2013-02-14gianfar: Remove wrong buffer size conditioning to VLAN h/w offloadClaudiu Manoil
The controller's ref manual states clearly that when the hw Rx vlan offload feature is enabled, meaning that the VLEX bit from RCTRL is correctly enabled, then the hw performs automatic VLAN tag extraction and deletion from the ethernet frames. So there's no point in trying to increase the rx buff size when rxvlan is on, as the frame is actually smaller. And the Tx vlan hw accel feature (VLINS) has nothing to do with rx buff size computation. Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
