igb: Fix lack of flush after register write and before delay

2012-05-17T15:21:36+00:00

commit 064b43304ed8ede8e13ff7b4338d09fd37bcffb1 upstream. Register writes followed by a delay are required to have a flush before the delay in order to commit the values to the register. Without the flush, the code following the delay may not function correctly.

e100/e1000/igb/ixgb*: Add missing read memory barrier

2011-04-17T20:15:34+00:00

commit 2d0bb1c1f4524befe9f0fcf0d0cd3081a451223f upstream. Based on patches from Sonny Rao and Milton Miller... Combined the patches to fix up clean_tx_irq and clean_rx_irq. The PowerPC architecture does not require loads to independent bytes to be ordered without adding an explicit barrier. In ixgbe_clean_rx_irq we load the status bit then load the packet data. With packet split disabled if these loads go out of order we get a stale packet, but we will notice the bad sequence numbers and drop it. The problem occurs with packet split enabled where the TCP/IP header and data are in different descriptors. If the reads go out of order we may have data that doesn't match the TCP/IP header. Since we use hardware checksumming this bad data is never verified and it makes it all the way to the application. This bug was found during stress testing and adding this barrier has been shown to fix it. The bug can manifest as a data integrity issue (bad payload data) or as a BUG in skb_pull(). This was a nasty bug to hunt down, if people agree with the fix I think it's a candidate for stable. Previously Submitted to e1000-devel only for ixgbe http://marc.info/?l=e1000-devel&m=126593062701537&w=3 We've now seen this problem hit with other device drivers (e1000e mostly) So I'm resubmitting with fixes for other Intel Device Drivers with similar issues.

igb: Use only a single Tx queue in SR-IOV mode

2010-08-10T17:54:09+00:00

commit 5fa8517f038d51d571981fb495206cc30ed91b06 upstream. The 82576 expects the second rx queue in any pool to receive L2 switch loop back packets sent from the second tx queue in another pool. The 82576 VF driver does not enable the second rx queue so if the PF driver sends packets destined to a VF from its second tx queue then the VF driver will never see them. In SR-IOV mode limit the number of tx queues used by the PF driver to one. This patch fixes a bug reported in which the PF cannot communciate with the VF and should be considered for 2.6.34 stable.

include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

2010-03-30T13:02:32+00:00

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

igb: use correct bits to identify if managability is enabled

2010-03-27T15:33:20+00:00

igb was previously checking the wrong bits in the MANC register to determine if managability was enabled. As a result it was incorrectly powering down and resetting the phy when it didn't need to. Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

igb: only use vlan_gro_receive if vlans are registered

2010-03-24T06:19:57+00:00

This change makes it so that vlan_gro_receive is only used if vlans have been registered to the adapter structure. Previously we were just sending all vlan tagged frames in via this function but this results in a null pointer dereference when vlans are not registered.

igb: do not modify tx_queue_len on link speed change

2010-03-24T06:19:57+00:00

Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports seen at half duplex. This had the effect of overriding user set values on link change/reset. Testing shows that adjusting only the timeout factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.

2010-03-24T06:19:56+00:00

Don't aggregate rx_no_buffer_count into rx_fifo_errors. RNBC counts packets that get queued temporarily in the adapter's FIFO. These packets are not dropped and are not errors.
