2013-01-15e1000e: unexpected "Reset adapter" message when cable pulledBruce Allan2-20/+21
When there is heavy traffic and the cable is pulled, the driver must reset the adapter to flush the Tx queue in hardware. This causes the reset path to be scheduled and logs the message "Reset adapter" which could be mis- interpreted as an error by the user. Change how the reset path is invoked for this scenario by using the same method done in an existing work-around for 80003es2lan (i.e. set a flag and if the flag is set in the reset code do not log the "Reset adapter" message since the reset is expected). Re-name the FLAG_RX_RESTART_NOW to FLAG_RESTART_NOW since it is used for resets in both the Rx and Tx specific code.

Energy Efficient Ethernet on 82579 and I217 should only be enabled if not disabled by the user, if the link is full duplex and the link partner has similar EEE capabilities (stored in different EMI registers on the two different parts). After enabling EEE, read the IEEE MMD register 3.1 (which is also stored in different EMI registers on the two different parts) to clear the count of received Tx/Rx LPI indications. Also, rename I217_EEE_100_SUPPORTED to I82579_EEE_100_SUPPORTED to indicate the bit is valid starting with I82579 (released before I217).

2013-01-15e1000e: Acquire/release semaphore when writing each EEPROM pageBruce Allan1-11/+11
When data blocks are written to the EEPROM, the HW/SW/FW semaphore must be held for the duration. With large data blocks on 80003es2lan, 82571 and 82572, this can take too long and cause the firmware to take ownership of the semaphore and consequently ownership of writes to the EEPROM. Instead, acquire and release the semaphore for each page of the block written.

2012-10-10e1000e: Change wthresh to 1 to avoid possible Tx stallsHiroaki SHIMODA2-4/+4
This patch originated from Hiroaki SHIMODA but has been modified by Intel with some minor cleanups and additional commit log text. Denys Fedoryshchenko and others reported Tx stalls on e1000e with BQL enabled. Issue was root caused to hardware delays. They were introduced because some of the e1000e hardware with transmit writeback bursting enabled, waits until the driver does an explict flush OR there are WTHRESH descriptors to write back. Sometimes the delays in question were on the order of seconds, causing visible lag for ssh sessions and unacceptable tx completion latency, especially for BQL enabled kernels. To avoid possible Tx stalls, change WTHRESH back to 1. The current plan is to investigate a method for re-enabling WTHRESH while not harming BQL, but those patches will be later for net-next if they work. please enqueue for stable since v3.3 as this bug was introduced in commit 3f0cfa3bc11e7f00c9994e0f469cbc0e7da7b00c Author: Tom Herbert <[email protected]> Date: Mon Nov 28 16:33:16 2011 +0000 e1000e: Support for byte queue limits Changes to e1000e to use byte queue limits.

Pull networking changes from David Miller: 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov. 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman. 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko. 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar. 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others. 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel Borkmann. 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet. 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for outgoing networking traffic. This benefits processes that have very many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common. From Eric Dumazet. 10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail. Benefits are a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page allocator c) less waste of space. From Eric Dumazet. 11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet. 12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation. From Stephen Hemminger. 13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

2012-08-30e1000e: DoS while TSO enabled caused by link partner with small MSSBruce Allan2-25/+24
With a low enough MSS on the link partner and TSO enabled locally, the networking stack can periodically send a very large (e.g. 64KB) TCP message for which the driver will attempt to use more Tx descriptors than are available by default in the Tx ring. This is due to a workaround in the code that imposes a limit of only 4 MSS-sized segments per descriptor which appears to be a carry-over from the older e1000 driver and may be applicable only to some older PCI or PCIx parts which are not supported in e1000e. When the driver gets a message that is too large to fit across the configured number of Tx descriptors, it stops the upper stack from queueing any more and gets stuck in this state. After a timeout, the upper stack assumes the adapter is hung and calls the driver to reset it. Remove the unnecessary limitation of using up to only 4 MSS-sized segments per Tx descriptor, and put in a hard failure test to catch when attempting to check for message sizes larger than would fit in the whole Tx ring. Refactor the remaining logic that limits the size of data per Tx descriptor from a seemingly arbitrary 8KB to a limit based on the dynamic size of the Tx packet buffer as described in the hardware specification. Also, fix the logic in the check for space in the Tx ring for the next largest possible packet after the current one has been successfully queued for transmit, and use the appropriate defines for default ring sizes in e1000_probe instead of magic values. This issue goes back to the introduction of e1000e in 2.6.24 when it was split off from e1000.

2012-08-07e1000e: 82571 Tx Data Corruption during Tx hang recoveryTushar Dave1-2/+4
A bus trace shows that while executing e1000e_down, TCTL is cleared except for the PSP bit. This occurs while in the middle of fetching a TSO packet since the Tx packet buffer is full at that point. Before the device is reset, the e1000_watchdog_task starts to run from the middle (it was apparently pre-empted earlier, although that is not in the trace) and sets TCTL.EN. At that point, 82571 transmits the corrupted packet, apparently because TCTL.MULR was cleared in the middle of fetching a packet, which is forbidden. Driver should just clear TCTL.EN in e1000_reset_hw_82571 instead of clearing the entire register, so as not to change any settings in the middle of fetching a packet.
