Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-08-27
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Carolyn provides two patches, first changes the wording of the flow
director add/remove and asynchronous failure messages to include the
fd_id to try and add some way to track the operations on a given fd_id.
Second adds a check during handle_link_event for unqualified modules
when link is down and there is a module plugged in.
Anjali provides four patches to i40e/i40evf. First update flow director
messages so that a user can tell if a filter was added or deleted. Then
updates the ATR policy to not auto-disable ATR when we have errors in
programming. The disabling of ATR when we got programming errors was
buggy and was still adding new rules and causing continuous errors.
With this policy change, we flush instead when we see too many errors.
In addition she adds a flow director flush counter to ethtool to help
know how many times the interface had to flush and replay the flow
director filter table. Updates the driver to ignores a driver
perceived transmit hang if the number of descriptors pending is less
than 4, and instead log a stat when this situation happens. This is
because the queue progresses forward and the stack never experiences
a real hang in these situations.
Shannon provides three patches for i40e/i40evf, first enables the
l2tsel bit on receive queue contexts that are assigned to VFs so that
the VF can get the stripped VLAN tag. Then adds a max buffer size
parameter to the print helper to be sure the code knows when to stop.
Lastly, remove the complaint when removing the default MAC VLAN filter.
This was because old firmware had an incorrect MAC VLAN filter that
needed to be replaced at startup, and now newer firmware does not have
this problem. So now we only add the new filter if the removal
succeeded and no need to complain if the removal fails.
Ashish provides a change to vsi->num_queue_pairs to equal the number
that is configured by the VF. This limits the number of queues that
are enabled/disabled and fixes the mismatch case for when a VF
configures fewer queues than is allocated to it by the PF.

become full or the stack has stopped the ring, enforce a tail

Some platforms have special bank registers which might be used to
select the correct clock or the right mode for Media Indepent Interface
controllers. Sometimes, it is also required to activate vcc regulators
in the right order to supply the ethernet controller at the right time.
This patch is an architecture refactoring of the arc-emac device driver.
It adds a new software design which allows to add specific platform
glue layer. Each platform has now its own module which performs custom
initialization and remove for the target and then calls to the
core driver.

We are seeing situations where the driver sees a hang with less than 4
desc pending, if the driver chooses to ignore it the queue progresses
forward and the stack never experiences a real hang.
With this patch we will log a stat when this situation happens
"tx_sluggish" will increment and we can see some more details
at a higher debug level. Other than that we will ignore this
particular case of Tx hang.

Older firmware has an incorrect MAC VLAN filter that needs to be replaced
at startup, and now newer firmware doesn't have this problem. With this
change we no longer complain if the remove fails, and we only add the
new filter if the remove succeeded.
Setting a new LAA worked the first time, but didn't work well in successive
operations, including returning to the HW default address. This simplifies
the code that was trying to be too smart.
Lastly, this pulls the hardware default mac address out into separate
handling code and keeps the broadcast filtering from getting munged.

There is at least one case in the Firmware API where the response to a
command changes the buffer size field in the AQ descriptor to a larger
number than what the request's buffer size started as. This is in addition
to setting an error flag and is in order to tell the requester how much
larger a buffer is required for the answer. We need to be sure not to
use that number when dumping the contents of the data buffer because it
can send us into the weeds and generate an invalid pointer exception.
This patch adds a max buffer size parameter to the print helper to be
sure the code knows when to stop.

Instead of disabling ATR when we get a programming error, we now
will wait it out to see if some room gets created by ATR rule deletion.
If we still have too many errors and ATR filter count did not change
much, its time to flush and replay. We no more auto-disable ATR when
we have errors in programming.
The disabling of ATR when we get programming error was buggy and
was still adding new rules and causing continuous errors. With this
policy change we flush instead when we see too many errors.
ATR is still disabled if we add a SB rule for TCP/IPv4 flow type,
more logic is added to re-enable it once all SB TCP/IPv4 rules are gone.

This device claims TSO support for vlans. It also allows a user to
control vlan acceleration offloading. As such, it is possible to turn
off vlan acceleration and configure a vlan which will continue to send
TSO traffic.
In such situation the packet passed down the the device will contain
a vlan header and skb->protocol will be set to ETH_P_8021Q.
The device assumes that skb->protocol contains network protocol
value and uses that value to set up TSO information.
This results in corrupted frames sent on the wire.
This patch extracts the protocol value correctly by using a
vlan_get_protocol() helper and corrects corrupt TSO frames.

This driver doesn't appear to support vlan acceleration at
all. However, it does claim to support TSO and IP checksums
for vlan devices. Thus any configured vlan device would
end up passing down partial checksums or TSO frames.
The driver also uses the value from skb->protocol to
determine TSO and checksum offload information, but assumes
that skb->protocol holds the l3 protocol information.
As a result, vlan traffic with partial checksums or TSO
will fail those checks and TSO will not happen.
Fix this by using vlan_get_protocol() helper.

As reported by Jesper Dangaard Brouer, for high packet rates the
overhead of having another indirect call in the TX path is
non-trivial.
There is the indirect call itself, and then there is all of the
reloading of the state to refetch the tail pointer value and
then write the device register.
Move to a more passive scheme, which requires very light modifications
to the device drivers.
The signal is a new skb->xmit_more value, if it is non-zero it means
that more SKBs are pending to be transmitted on the same queue as the
current SKB. And therefore, the driver may elide the tail pointer
update.
Right now skb->xmit_more is always zero.
