i40e/i40evf: Refactor the receive routines

Split the receive hot path code into two, one for packet split and one
for single buffer. This improves receive performance since we only need
to check if the ring is in packet split mode once per NAPI poll time,
not several times per packet. The single buffer code is further improved
by the removal of a bunch of code and several variables that are not
needed. On a receive-oriented test this can improve single-threaded
throughput.

Also refactor the packet split receive path to use a fixed buffer for
headers, like ixgbe does. This vastly reduces the number of DMA mappings
and unmappings we need to do, allowing for much better performance in
the presence of an IOMMU.

Lastly, correct packet split descriptor types now that we are actually
using them.

Hi Dave, the following patch set reduces code duplication

detect/recovery paths. New helper routines have been introduced for this

Patch 1 refactors the alloc/free code of adapter struct's fields into
a new set of helper routines -- be_drv_init/cleanup().

Patch 2 gets rid of the be_get_initial_config() routine as be_get_config()
is the place holder for related code.

Patch 3 introduces a new helper routine be_func_init() to execute the
initialization code used in probe/pci-resume/eeh-resume to remove
code duplication.

Patch 4 introduces a wrapper for scheduling/canceling error detection
task on similar lines to the be_worker task.

Patch 5 refactors UE error detection and recovery code on similar lines
to EEH code. Cleaning up resources is done in the error detection routine
followed by error recovery.

Patch 6 gets rid of the lancer_test_and_set_rdy_state() routine as the
same code now available in be_func_init().

Patch 7 creates a new helper routine be_resume() for all the common code
in be_probe(), be_pci_resume() and be_eeh_resume(), to reduce code duplication.

Patch 8 creates a new helper routine be_cleanup() for all the common
cleanup code duplicated in the suspend/EEH err detection paths.

Patch 9 moves be_func_init() inside be_setup() as everytime be_setup()
is called, the driver will have to wait for the function/FW to be be
initialized.

Indirect phy access for mv88e6171

These two patches allow the mv88e6171 driver to access the port phys

either uses a single address on the host MDIO bus, requiring the port
phys are accessed indirectly, or the switch uses a number of addresses
on the host bus and the phys can be directly accessed.

The 370RD, the first supported platform to use the 6171 uses multiple
addresses, so this indirect mode was not required. However the
WRT1900AC has the switch configured to use a single address, and so
indirect access is needed.

The mv88e6352 already has all the needed code. Refactor it into the
shared mv88e6xxx and then use it in the mv88e6171 driver.

md/raid5: Fix livelock when array is both resyncing and degraded.

Commit a7854487cd7128a30a7f4f5259de9f67d5efb95f:
  md: When RAID5 is dirty, force reconstruct-write instead of read-modify-write.

Causes an RCW cycle to be forced even when the array is degraded.
A degraded array cannot support RCW as that requires reading all data
blocks, and one may be missing.

Forcing an RCW when it is not possible causes a live-lock and the code
spins, repeatedly deciding to do something that cannot succeed.

So change the condition to only force RCW on non-degraded arrays.

9 years agoscripts/gdb: port to python3 / gdb7.7

scripts/gdb: port to python3 / gdb7.7

I tried to use these scripts in an ubuntu 14.04 host (gdb 7.7 compiled
against python 3.3) but there were several errors.

I believe this patch fixes these issues so that the commands now work (I
tested lx-symbols, lx-dmesg, lx-lsmod).

Main issues that needed to be resolved:

  * In python 2 iterators have a "next()" method. In python 3 it is
    __next__() instead (so let's just add both).

  * In older python versions there was an implicit conversion
    in object.__format__() (used when an object is in string.format())
    where it was converting the object to str first and then
    calling str's __format__(). This has now been removed so
    we must explicitly convert to str the objects for which
    we need to keep this behavior.

  * In dmesg.py: in python 3 log_buf is now a "memoryview" object
    which needs to be converted to a string in order to use string
    methods like "splitlines()". Luckily memoryview exists in
    python 2.7.6 as well, so we can convert log_buf to memoryview
    and use the same code in both python 2 and python 3.

This version of the patch has now been tested with gdb 7.7 and both python
3.4 and python 2.7.6 (I think asking for at least python 2.7.6 is a
reasonable requirement instead of complicating the code with version
checks etc).

This is probably the most useful helper when debugging kernel modules:
lx-symbols first reloads vmlinux.  Then it searches recursively for *.ko
files in the specified paths and the current directory.  Finally it walks
the kernel's module list, issuing the necessary add-symbol-file command
for each loaded module so that gdb knows which module symbol corresponds
to which address.  It also looks up variable sections (bss, data, rodata)
and appends their address to the add-symbole-file command line.  This
allows to access global module variables just like any other variable.
