====================
net: Checksum offload changes - Part VI
I am working on overhauling RX checksum offload. Goals of this effort
are:
- Specify what exactly it means when driver returns CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
- Preserve CHECKSUM_COMPLETE through encapsulation layers
- Don't do skb_checksum more than once per packet
- Unify GRO and non-GRO csum verification as much as possible
- Unify the checksum functions (checksum_init)
- Simplify code
What is in this sixth patch set:
- Clarify the specific requirements of devices returning
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (comments in skbuff.h).
- Add csum_level field to skbuff. This is used to express how
many checksums are covered by CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY (stores n - 1).
- Change __skb_checksum_validate_needed to "consume" each checksum
as indicated by csum_level as layers of the the packet are parsed.
- Remove skb_pop_rcv_encapsulation, no longer needed in the new
csum_level model.
- Allow GRO path to "consume" checksums provided in CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY
and to report new verfied checksums for use in normal path fallback.
- Add proper support to SCTP to accept CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to validate
header CRC.
- Modify drivers to set skb->csum_level instead of setting
skb->encapsulation to indicate validation of an encapsulated
checksum on receive.
v2:
Allocate a new 16 bits for flags in skbuff.
Please review carefully and test if possible, mucking with basic
checksum functions is always a little precarious :-)

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.

dsa: Broadcom Starfighter 2 switch support
This patch series adds support for the Broadcom Starfighter 2 (Roboswitch
successor) using the existing DSA infrastructure. This integrated switch
is heavily used in Set Top Box, Cable gateways and DSL gateways products
from Broadcom, and to a larger extent the new ARM-based Wi-Fi routers although
slightly differently.
Changes in v5 are the introduction of ETH_P_XDSA as suggested by Alexander to
help capture applications see this is a multiplexed DSA approach now.
Changes in v4 are the introducing of an indirection level for DSA switch tag
protocols receive and transmit functions.
I intentionnaly did not address one comment from Alexander who suggested to
move port_names and port_dn in a separate structure since that involves
touching arch/arm/ and arch/blackfin/ code which I am not yet comfortable
doing.
Notable changes in v3 is the preliminary patch that reworks the skb->protocol
override helpers for non-Ethertype switch tags, based on feedback from
Alexander Duyck.
The biggest changes from v1 of this patch series are:
- use the new fixed PHY helpers
- improved the switch driver with more complete features (interrupts,
(RG)MII configuration, memory arrays power down/up, port disabling/enable
VLAN separation
Future work will focus on bringing the upstream driver in feature parity with
the current downstream driver, including:
- adding Wake-on-LAN support to the switch
- adding suspend/resume callbacks for S2/S3 Power Management modes
- extending the switch register interface to cover BCM5310X SoCs

net: dsa: reduce number of protocol hooks
DSA is currently registering one packet_type function per EtherType it
needs to intercept in the receive path of a DSA-enabled Ethernet device.
Right now we have three of them: trailer, DSA and eDSA, and there might
be more in the future, this will not scale to the addition of new
protocols.
This patch proceeds with adding a new layer of abstraction and two new
functions:
dsa_switch_rcv() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific
receive function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c
dsa_slave_xmit() which will dispatch into the tag-protocol specific
transmit function implemented by net/dsa/tag_*.c
When we do create the per-port slave network devices, we iterate over
the switch protocol to assign the DSA-specific receive and transmit
operations.
A new fake ethertype value is used: ETH_P_XDSA to illustrate the fact
that this is no longer going to look like ETH_P_DSA or ETH_P_TRAILER
like it used to be.
This allows us to greatly simplify the check in eth_type_trans() and
always override the skb->protocol with ETH_P_XDSA for Ethernet switches
tagged protocol, while also reducing the number repetitive slave
netdevice_ops assignments.

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.

Merge branch 'is_kdump_kernel'
Amir Vadai says:
====================
Make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules
I'm re-spinning this patchset. At the begining it was suggested to use a
different name for the parameter, but at the end [3] the resolution was to
leave it as it is in this patch.
Drivers need to know if running from kdump kernel in order to change their
memory profile - since kdump environment is limited by available memory.
Currently there are drivers that are using reset_devices as suggested in [2].
In [2] it was suggested to use reset_devices, but the context was, to enable
driver to know when the hardware device is needed to be reset, and not if this
is a kdump environment. We think that is_kdump_kernel() is better suited to
select between different memory profiles.
The first patch in this patchset exports a needed symbol in order to make
is_kdump_kernel() accessible from the drivers. The rest of the patches change
from reset_devices to is_kdump_kernel() in 2 networking drivers.
The idea of this patchset was suggested by Vivek Goyal.
Tested (only build) and applied on top of commit

reciprocal_scale() helper")

In order to make is_kdump_kernel() accessible from modules, need to
make elfcorehdr_addr exported.
This was rejected in the past [1] because reset_devices was prefered in
that context (reseting the device in kdump kernel), but now there are
some network drivers that need to reduce memory usage when loaded from
a kdump kernel. And in that context, is_kdump_kernel() suits better.

Merge branch 'ndo_xmit_flush'
Basic deferred TX queue flushing infrastructure.
Over time, and specifically and more recently at the Networking
Workshop during Kernel SUmmit in Chicago, we have discussed the idea
of having some way to optimize transmits of multiple TX packets at
a time.
There are several areas of overhead that could be amortized with such
schemes. One has to do with locking and transactional overhead, the
other has to do with device specific costs.
This patch set here is more aimed at device specific costs.
Typically a device queues up a packet in the TX queue and then has to
do something to have the device start processing that new entry.
Sometimes this is composed of doing an MMIO write to a "tail"
register, and in other cases it can involve something as expensive as
a hypervisor call.
The basic setup defined here is that when the driver supports deferred
TX queue flushing, ndo_start_xmit should no longer perform that
operation. Instead a new operation, ndo_xmit_flush, should do it.
I have converted IGB and virtio_net as example initial users. The IGB
conversion is tested, virtio_net is not but it does compile :-)
All ndo_start_xmit call sites have been abstracted behind a new helper
called netdev_start_xmit().
This just adds the infrastructure, it does not actually add any
instances of actually doing multiple ndo_start_xmit calls per
ndo_xmit_flush invocation.
