2014-12-08net: mvneta: fix Tx interrupt delaywilly tarreau
The mvneta driver sets the amount of Tx coalesce packets to 16 by default. Normally that does not cause any trouble since the driver uses a much larger Tx ring size (532 packets). But some sockets might run with very small buffers, much smaller than the equivalent of 16 packets. This is what ping is doing for example, by setting SNDBUF to 324 bytes rounded up to 2kB by the kernel. The problem is that there is no documented method to force a specific packet to emit an interrupt (eg: the last of the ring) nor is it possible to make the NIC emit an interrupt after a given delay. In this case, it causes trouble, because when ping sends packets over its raw socket, the few first packets leave the system, and the first 15 packets will be emitted without an IRQ being generated, so without the skbs being freed. And since the socket's buffer is small, there's no way to reach that amount of packets, and the ping ends up with "send: no buffer available" after sending 6 packets. Running with 3 instances of ping in parallel is enough to hide the problem, because with 6 packets per instance, that's 18 packets total, which is enough to grant a Tx interrupt before all are sent. The original driver in the LSP kernel worked around this design flaw by using a software timer to clean up the Tx descriptors. This timer was slow and caused terrible network performance on some Tx-bound workloads (such as routing) but was enough to make tools like ping work correctly. Instead here, we simply set the packet counts before interrupt to 1. This ensures that each packet sent will produce an interrupt. NAPI takes care of coalescing interrupts since the interrupt is disabled once generated. No measurable performance impact nor CPU usage were observed on small nor large packets, including when saturating the link on Tx, and this fixes tools like ping which rely on too small a send buffer. If one wants to increase this value for certain workloads where it is safe to do so, "ethtool -C $dev tx-frames" will override this default setting. This fix needs to be applied to stable kernels starting with 3.10. Tested-By: Maggie Mae Roxas <maggie.mae.roxas@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Willy Tarreau <w@1wt.eu> Signed-off-by: David S.

The handling of can error states is different between platforms. This is an attempt to correct that problem. I've moved this handling into a generic function for changing the error state. This ensures that error state changes are handled the same way everywhere (where this function is used).

2014-12-06i40e: get pf_id from HW rather than PCI functionShannon Nelson
Getting the pf_id from the function number was a good place to start, but when the PF was setup in passthru mode, the PCI bus/device/function was virtualized and the number in the VM is different from the number in the bare metal. This caused HW configuration issues when the wrong pf_id was used to set up the HMC and other structures. The PF_FUNC_RID register has the real bus/device/function information as configured by the BIOS, so use that for a better number. This works in NPAR mode as well.

2014-12-06i40evf: make early init sequence even more robustMitch Williams
When multiple VFs attempt to initialize simultaneously, the firmware may delay or drop messages. Make the init code more adept at handling these situations by a) reinitializing the admin queue if the firmware fails to process a request, and b) resending a request if the PF doesn't answer. Once the request has been sent again, the PF might end up getting both requests and send the configuration information to the driver twice. This will cause the VF to complain about receiving an unexpected message from the PF. Since this is not fatal, reduce the warning level of the log messages that are generated in response to this event.

2014-12-06i40e: don't enable PTP support on more than one PF per portJacob Keller
Resolve an issue related to images with multiple PFs per physical port. We cannot fully support 1588 PTP features, since only one port should control (ie: write) the registers at a time. Doing so can cause interference of functionality. It may be possible to partially implement the API for only those features without side effects. However, this at minimum means non controlling PFs lose Tx timestamps, frequency atunement, and possibly SYSTIME adjustment. There may be further impact I did not discover. Since the API in the kernel expects these features to work, it is simpler and less dangerous to just disable PTP features on all PFs not identified as the controlling PF in PRTTSYN_CTL0.PF_ID. This change also removes the warning printed when hwtstaml IOCTL is called on the wrong PF. This is actually meaningless now, since only one PF per port will support it. In addition, the ethtool get_ts_info IOCTL was updated so that only the controlling port will even indicate support (so as not to confuse users). The overall downside is complete loss of functionality on non controlling PF, vs the possible gain of partial support. The biggest factor for choosing this approach is simplicity and ensuring that the main PF will work. There could easily be other portions of the 1588 logic with side effects I am not aware, and the reduced functionality that might be made available is significantly less useful. In addition, the API does not allow for proper indication of why particular features are not supported. These reasons are enough to decide for the simpler approach to resolving this issue.
