2018-09-26s390/qeth: remove various redundant codeJulian Wiedmann
1. tracing iob->rc makes no sense when it hasn't been modified by the callback, 2. the qeth_dbf_list is declared with LIST_HEAD, which also initializes the list, 3. the ccwgroup core only calls the thaw/restore callbacks if the gdev is online, so we don't have to check for it again.

2018-09-26net/af_iucv: locate IUCV header via skb_network_header()Julian Wiedmann
This patch attempts to untangle the TX and RX code in qeth from af_iucv's respective HiperTransport path: On the TX side, pointing skb_network_header() at the IUCV header means that qeth_l3_fill_af_iucv_hdr() no longer needs a magical offset to access the header. On the RX side, qeth pulls the (fake) L2 header off the skb like any normal ethernet driver would. This makes working with the IUCV header in af_iucv easier, since we no longer have to assume a fixed skb layout. While at it, replace the open-coded length checks in af_iucv's RX path with pskb_may_pull(). Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-09-26s390/qeth: fix discipline unload after setup errorJulian Wiedmann
Device initialization code usually first loads a subdriver (via qeth_core_load_discipline()), and then runs its setup() callback. If this fails, it rolls back the load via qeth_core_free_discipline(). qeth_core_free_discipline() expects the options.layer attribute to be initialized, but on error in setup() that's currently not the case. Resulting in misbalanced symbol_put() calls. Fix this by setting options.layer when loading the subdriver. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-09-26s390/qeth: convert layer attribute to enumJulian Wiedmann
While the raw values are fixed due to their use in a sysfs attribute, we can still use the proper QETH_DISCIPLINE_* enum within the driver. Also move the initialization into qeth_set_initial_options(), along with all other user-configurable fields. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-09-17s390/qeth: invoke softirqs after napi_schedule()Julian Wiedmann
Calling napi_schedule() from process context does not ensure that the NET_RX softirq is run in a timely fashion. So trigger it manually. This is no big issue with current code. A call to ndo_open() is usually followed by a ndo_set_rx_mode() call, and for qeth this contains a spin_unlock_bh(). Except for OSN, where qeth_l2_set_rx_mode() bails out early. Nevertheless it's best to not depend on this behaviour, and just fix the issue at its source like all other drivers do. For instance see commit 83a0c6e58901 ("i40e: Invoke softirqs after napi_reschedule").

2018-09-17s390/qeth: prepare for copy-free TSO transmissionJulian Wiedmann
Add all the necessary TSO plumbing to the copy-less transmit path. This includes calculating the right length of required protocol headers, and always building a separate buffer element for the TSO headers. A follow-up patch will then switch TSO traffic over to this path. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-09-17s390/qeth: fix up protocol headers earlyJulian Wiedmann
When qeth_add_hw_header() falls back to the HW header cache, it also copies over the necessary protocol headers. Thus any manipulation to the protocol headers needs to happen before adding the HW header. For current usage this doesn't matter, but it becomes relevant when moving TSO transmission over to the faster code path. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-09-17s390/qeth: limit csum offload erratum to L3 devicesJulian Wiedmann

2018-09-17s390/qeth: run non-offload L3 traffic over common xmit pathJulian Wiedmann
L3 OSAs can only offload IPv4 traffic, use the common L2 transmit path for all other traffic. In particular there's no support for TX VLAN offload, so any such packet needs to be manually de-accelerated via ndo_features_check().

2018-09-12s390/qeth: don't dump past end of unknown HW headerJulian Wiedmann

2018-07-21s390/qeth: speed up L2 IQD xmitJulian Wiedmann
Modify the L2 OSA xmit path so that it also supports L2 IQD devices (in particular, their HW header requirements). This allows IQD devices to advertise NETIF_F_SG support, and eliminates the allocation overhead for the HW header. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-07-21s390/qeth: add support for constrained HW headersJulian Wiedmann
Some transmit modes require that the HW header is located in the same page as the initial protocol headers in skb->data. Let callers specify the size of this contiguous header range, and enforce it when building the HW header. While at it, apply some gentle renaming to the relevant L2 code so that it matches the L3 code. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-07-21s390/qeth: merge linearize-check into HW header constructionJulian Wiedmann
When checking whether an skb needs to be linearized to fit into an IO buffer, it's desirable to consider the skb's final size and layout (ie. after the HW header was added). But a subsequent linearization can then cause the re-positioned HW header to violate its alignment restrictions. Dealing with this situation in two different code paths is quite tricky. This patch integrates a) linearize-check and b) HW header construction into one 3 step-sequence: 1. evaluate how the HW header needs to be added (to identify if it takes up an additional buffer element), then 2. check if the required buffer elements exceed the device's limit. Linearize when necessary and re-evaluate the HW header placement. 3. Add the HW header in the best-possible way: a) push, without taking up an additional buffer element b) push, but consume another buffer element c) allocate a header object from the cache.

2018-07-21s390/qeth: add statistics for consumed buffer elementsJulian Wiedmann
Nowadays an skb fragment typically spans over multiple pages. So replace the obsolete, SG-only 'fragments' counter with one that tracks the consumed buffer elements.

2018-07-21s390/qeth: use core MTU range checkingJulian Wiedmann

2018-07-21s390/qeth: simplify max MTU handlingJulian Wiedmann
When the MPC initialization code discovers the HW-specific max MTU, apply the resulting changes straight to the netdevice. If this is the device's first initialization, also set its MTU (HiperSockets: the max MTU; else: a layer-specific default value). Then cap the current MTU by the new max MTU.

2018-07-21s390/qeth: allocate netdevice earlyJulian Wiedmann
Allocation of the netdevice is currently delayed until a qeth card first goes online. This complicates matters in several places, where we need to cache values instead of applying them straight to the netdevice. Improve on this by moving the allocation up to where the qeth card itself is created. This is also one step in direction of eventually placing the qeth card into netdev_priv(). In all subsequent code, remove the now redundant checks whether card->dev is valid. Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2018-07-12s390/qeth: speed-up L3 IQD xmitJulian Wiedmann
This implements a new xmit path for L3 HiperSockets, which carves the HW header from skb headroom instead of allocating it from the hdr cache. It also adds NETIF_F_SG support.

2018-07-12s390/qeth: fine-tune RX modesettingJulian Wiedmann
Changing a device's address lists (or its promisc mode) already triggers an RX modeset, there's no need to do it manually from the L2 driver's ndo_vlan_rx_kill_vid() hook. Also when setting a device online, dev_open() already calls dev_set_rx_mode(). So a manual modeset is only necessary from the recovery path.

2018-06-30s390/qeth: consistently re-enable device featuresJulian Wiedmann
commit e830baa9c3f0 ("qeth: restore device features after recovery") and commit ce3443564145 ("s390/qeth: rely on kernel for feature recovery") made sure that the HW functions for device features get re-programmed after recovery. But we missed that the same handling is also required when a card is first set offline (destroying all HW context), and then online again.

2018-04-27s390/qeth: don't worry about IPs on VLAN removalJulian Wiedmann
When removing a VLAN ID on a L3 device, the driver currently attempts to walk and unregister the VLAN device's IP addresses. This can be safely removed - before qeth_l3_vlan_rx_kill_vid() even gets called, we receive an inet[6]addr event for each IP on the device and qeth_l3_handle_ip_event() unregisters the address accordingly.

Fun set of conflict resolutions here... For the mac80211 stuff, these were fortunately just parallel adds. Trivially resolved. In drivers/net/phy/phy.c we had a bug fix in 'net' that moved the function phy_disable_interrupts() earlier in the file, whilst in 'net-next' the phy_error() call from this function was removed. In net/ipv4/xfrm4_policy.c, David Ahern's changes to remove the 'rt_table_id' member of rtable collided with a bug fix in 'net' that added a new struct member "rt_mtu_locked" which needs to be copied over here. The mlxsw driver conflict consisted of net-next separating the span code and definitions into separate files, whilst a 'net' bug fix made some changes to that moved code. The mlx5 infiniband conflict resolution was quite non-trivial, the RDMA tree's merge commit was used as a guide here, and here are their notes: ==================== Due to bug fixes found by the syzkaller bot and taken into the for-rc branch after development for the 4.17 merge window had already started being taken into the for-next branch, there were fairly non-trivial merge issues that would need to be resolved between the for-rc branch and the for-next branch. This merge resolves those conflicts and provides a unified base upon which ongoing development for 4.17 can be based. Conflicts: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/main.c - Commit 42cea83f9524 (IB/mlx5: Fix cleanup order on unload) added to for-rc and commit b5ca15ad7e61 (IB/mlx5: Add proper representors support) add as part of the devel cycle both needed to modify the init/de-init functions used by mlx5. To support the new representors, the new functions added by the cleanup patch needed to be made non-static, and the init/de-init list added by the representors patch needed to be modified to match the init/de-init list changes made by the cleanup patch. Updates: drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mlx5_ib.h - Update function prototypes added by representors patch to reflect new function names as changed by cleanup patch drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/ib_rep.c - Update init/de-init stage list to match new order from cleanup patch ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-03-22s390/qeth: free netdevice when removing a cardJulian Wiedmann
On removal, a qeth card's netdevice is currently not properly freed because the call chain looks as follows: qeth_core_remove_device(card) lx_remove_device(card) unregister_netdev(card->dev) card->dev = NULL !!! qeth_core_free_card(card) if (card->dev) !!! free_netdev(card->dev) Fix it by free'ing the netdev straight after unregistering. This also fixes the sysfs-driven layer switch case (qeth_dev_layer2_store()), where the need to free the current netdevice was not considered at all.

2018-02-28s390/qeth: fix IP address lookup for L3 devicesJulian Wiedmann
Current code ("qeth_l3_ip_from_hash()") matches a queried address object against objects in the IP table by IP address, Mask/Prefix Length and MAC address ("qeth_l3_ipaddrs_is_equal()"). But what callers actually require is either a) "is this IP address registered" (ie. match by IP address only), before adding a new address. b) or "is this address object registered" (ie. match all relevant attributes), before deleting an address. Right now 1. the ADD path is too strict in its lookup, and eg. doesn't detect conflicts between an existing NORMAL address and a new VIPA address (because the NORMAL address will have mask != 0, while VIPA has a mask == 0), 2. the DELETE path is not strict enough, and eg. allows del_rxip() to delete a VIPA address as long as the IP address matches. Fix all this by adding helpers (_addr_match_ip() and _addr_match_all()) that do the appropriate checking. Note that the ADD path for NORMAL addresses is special, as qeth keeps track of how many times such an address is in use (and there is no immediate way of returning errors to the caller). So when a requested NORMAL address _fully_ matches an existing one, it's not considered a conflict and we merely increment the refcount.
