sfc: Fix naming of MTD partitions for FPGA bitfiles

2013-05-19T18:38:33Z

[ Upstream commit 89cc80a44b7c320e08599cb86f6aef0ead8986a1 ] efx_mcdi_get_board_cfg() uses a buffer for the firmware response that is only large enough to hold subtypes for the originally defined set of NVRAM partitions. Longer responses are truncated, and we may read off the end of the buffer when copying out subtypes for additional partitions. In particular, this can result in the MTD partition for an FPGA bitfile being named e.g. 'eth5 sfc_fpga:00' when it should be 'eth5 sfc_fpga:01'. This means the firmware update tool (sfupdate) can't tell which bitfile should be written to the partition. Correct the response buffer size. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S.

sfc: Only use TX push if a single descriptor is to be written

2013-03-12T17:07:56Z

Using TX push when notifying the NIC of multiple new descriptors in the ring will very occasionally cause the TX DMA engine to re-use an old descriptor. This can result in a duplicated or partly duplicated packet (new headers with old data), or an IOMMU page fault. This does not happen when the pushed descriptor is the only one written. TX push also provides little latency benefit when a packet requires more than one descriptor. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

sfc: Correct efx_rx_buffer::page_offset when EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN != 0

2013-03-06T17:57:25Z

RX DMA buffers start at an offset of EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN bytes from the start of a cache line. This offset obviously needs to be included in the virtual address, but this was missed in commit b590ace09d51 ('sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb') since EFX_PAGE_IP_ALIGN is equal to 0 on both x86 and powerpc.

sfc: Disable soft interrupt handling during efx_device_detach_sync()

2013-03-06T17:57:24Z

efx_device_detach_sync() locks all TX queues before marking the device detached and thus disabling further TX scheduling. But it can still be interrupted by TX completions which then result in TX scheduling in soft interrupt context. This will deadlock when it tries to acquire a TX queue lock that efx_device_detach_sync() already acquired. To avoid deadlock, we must use netif_tx_{,un}lock_bh(). Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

sfc: Detach net device when stopping queues for reconfiguration

2013-02-26T15:00:46Z

We must only ever stop TX queues when they are full or the net device is not 'ready' so far as the net core, and specifically the watchdog, is concerned. Otherwise, the watchdog may fire *immediately* if no packets have been added to the queue in the last 5 seconds. The device is ready if all the following are true: (a) It has a qdisc (b) It is marked present (c) It is running (d) The link is reported up (a) and (c) are normally true, and must not be changed by a driver. (d) is under our control, but fake link changes may disturb userland. This leaves (b). We already mark the device absent during reset and self-test, but we need to do the same during MTU changes and ring reallocation. We don't need to do this when the device is brought down because then (c) is already false. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

sfc: Fix efx_rx_buf_offset() in the presence of swiotlb

2013-02-26T14:57:16Z

We assume that the mapping between DMA and virtual addresses is done on whole pages, so we can find the page offset of an RX buffer using the lower bits of the DMA address. However, swiotlb maps in units of 2K, breaking this assumption. Add an explicit page_offset field to struct efx_rx_buffer. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

sfc: Properly sync RX DMA buffer when it is not the last in the page

2013-02-26T14:55:49Z

We may currently allocate two RX DMA buffers to a page, and only unmap the page when the second is completed. We do not sync the first RX buffer to be completed; this can result in packet loss or corruption if the last RX buffer completed in a NAPI poll is the first in a page and is not DMA-coherent. (In the middle of a NAPI poll, we will handle the following RX completion and unmap the page *before* looking at the content of the first buffer.) Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings

drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/ptp.c: adjust duplicate test

2013-01-21T20:44:58Z

Delete successive tests to the same location. rc was previously tested and not subsequently updated. efx_phc_adjtime can return an error code, so the call is updated so that is tested instead. A simplified version of the semantic match that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/) // @s exists@ local idexpression y; expression x,e; @@ *if ( \(x == NULL\|IS_ERR(x)\|y != 0\) ) { ... when forall return ...; } ... when != \(y = e\|y += e\|y -= e\|y |= e\|y &= e\|y++\|y--\|&y\) when != \(XT_GETPAGE(...,y)\|WMI_CMD_BUF(...)\) *if ( \(x == NULL\|IS_ERR(x)\|y != 0\) ) { ... when forall return ...; } // Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall Acked-by: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: David S.

drivers/net: fix up function prototypes after __dev* removals

2012-12-07T19:22:22Z

The __dev* removal patches for the network drivers ended up messing up the function prototypes for a bunch of drivers. This patch fixes all of them back up to be properly aligned. Bonus is that this almost removes 100 lines of code, always a nice surprise. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

sfc: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:16:46Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev* markings will be going away. Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit. Signed-off-by: Bill Pemberton Cc: Solarflare linux maintainers Cc: Ben Hutchings Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
