treewide: replace '---help---' in Kconfig files with 'help'

2020-06-13T16:57:21+00:00

Since commit 84af7a6194e4 ("checkpatch: kconfig: prefer 'help' over '---help---'"), the number of '---help---' has been gradually decreasing, but there are still more than 2400 instances. This commit finishes the conversion. While I touched the lines, I also fixed the indentation. There are a variety of indentation styles found. a) 4 spaces + '---help---' b) 7 spaces + '---help---' c) 8 spaces + '---help---' d) 1 space + 1 tab + '---help---' e) 1 tab + '---help---' (correct indentation) f) 1 tab + 1 space + '---help---' g) 1 tab + 2 spaces + '---help---' In order to convert all of them to 1 tab + 'help', I ran the following commend: $ find . -name 'Kconfig*' | xargs sed -i 's/^[[:space:]]*---help---/\thelp/' Signed-off-by: Masahiro Yamada

net/ncsi: Support for multi host mellanox card

2020-01-10T02:36:22+00:00

Multi host Mellanox cards require MAC affinity to be set before receiving any config commands. All config commands should also have unicast address for source address in command header. Adding GMA and SMAF(Set Mac Affinity) for Mellanox card and call these in channel probe state machine if it is defined in device tree. Signed-off-by: Vijay Khemka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ncsi: Send device address as source address

2020-01-08T21:09:18+00:00

After receiving device mac address from device, send this as a source address for further commands instead of broadcast address. This will help in multi host NIC cards. Signed-off-by: Vijay Khemka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ncsi: Fix gma flag setting after response

2019-12-31T04:34:17+00:00

gma_flag was set at the time of GMA command request but it should only be set after getting successful response. Movinng this flag setting in GMA response handler. This flag is used mainly for not repeating GMA command once received MAC address. Signed-off-by: Vijay Khemka Reviewed-by: Samuel Mendoza-Jonas Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ncsi: Disable global multicast filter

2019-09-20T01:04:40+00:00

Disabling multicast filtering from NCSI if it is supported. As it should not filter any multicast packets. In current code, multicast filter is enabled and with an exception of optional field supported by device are disabled filtering. Mainly I see if goal is to disable filtering for IPV6 packets then let it disabled for every other types as well. As we are seeing issues with LLDP not working with this enabled filtering. And there are other issues with IPV6. By Disabling this multicast completely, it is working for both IPV6 as well as LLDP.

net/ncsi: add response handlers for PLDM over NC-SI

2019-09-01T06:54:03+00:00

This patch adds handlers for PLDM over NC-SI command response. This enables NC-SI driver recognizes the packet type so the responses don't get dropped as unknown packet type. PLDM over NC-SI are not handled in kernel driver for now, but can be passed back to user space via Netlink for further handling. Signed-off-by: Ben Wei Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ncsi: Fix the payload copying for the request coming from Netlink

2019-08-23T02:27:02+00:00

The request coming from Netlink should use the OEM generic handler. The standard command handler expects payload in bytes/words/dwords but the actual payload is stored in data if the request is coming from Netlink. Signed-off-by: Justin Lee Reviewed-by: Vijay Khemka Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ncsi: Ensure 32-bit boundary for data cksum

2019-08-20T19:42:40+00:00

The NCSI spec indicates that if the data does not end on a 32 bit boundary, one to three padding bytes equal to 0x00 shall be present to align the checksum field to a 32-bit boundary. Signed-off-by: Terry S. Duncan Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
