2010-05-20wimax/i2400m: fix bad race condition check in RX pathInaky Perez-Gonzalez1-2/+2
The i2400m->rx_roq data structure is protected against race conditions with a reference count (i2400m->rx_roq_refcount); the pointer can be read-referenced under the i2400m->rx_lock spinlock. The code in i2400m_rx_edata() wasn't properly following access protocol, performing an invalid check on i2400m->rx_roq (which is cleared to NULL when the refcount drops to zero). As such, it was missing to detect when the data structure is no longer valid and oopsing with a NULL pointer dereference. This commit fixes said check by verifying, under the rx_lock spinlock, that i2400m->rx_roq is non-NULL and then increasing the reference count before dropping the spinlock.

2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: Move module params to other file so they can be staticPrasanna S Panchamukhi4-25/+20
This patch moves the module parameters to the file where they can be avoided to be global and allow them to be static. The module param : idle_mode_disabled and power_save_disabled are moved from driver.c to control.c. Also these module parameters are declared to be static as they are not required to be global anymore. The module param : rx_reorder_disabled is moved from driver.c file to rx.c file. Also this parameter is declated as static as it is not required to be global anymore. Signed-off-by: Prasanna S Panchamukhi<prasannax.s.panchamukhi@intel.com>

2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: Reset the TX FIFO indices when allocating the TX FIFO in ↵Cindy H Kao1-8/+21
tx_setup() This patch makes sure whenever tx_setup() is invoked during driver initialization or device reset where TX FIFO is released and re-allocated, the indices tx_in, tx_out, tx_msg_size, tx_sequence, tx_msg are properly initialized. When a device reset happens and the TX FIFO is released/re-allocated, a new block of memory may be allocated for the TX FIFO, therefore tx_msg should be cleared so that no any TX threads (tx_worker, tx) would access to the out-of-date addresses. Also, the TX threads use tx_in and tx_out to decide where to put the new host-to-device messages and from where to copy them to the device HW FIFO, these indices have to be cleared so after the TX FIFO is re-allocated during the reset, the indices both refer to the head of the FIFO, ie. a new start. The same rational applies to tx_msg_size and tx_sequence. To protect the indices from being accessed by multiple threads simultaneously, the lock tx_lock has to be obtained before the initializations and released afterwards.

2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: Correct the error path handlers order in i2400m_post_reset()Cindy H Kao1-1/+1
When bus_setup fails in i2400m_post_reset(), it falls to the error path handler "error_bus_setup:" which includes unlock the mutext. However, we didn't ever try to the obtain the lock when running bus_setup. The patch is to fix the misplaced error path handler "error_bus_setup:". Signed-off-by: Cindy H Kao <cindy.h.kao@intel.com>
2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: add the error recovery mechanism on TX pathCindy H Kao3-0/+92
This patch adds an error recovery mechanism on TX path. The intention is to bring back the device to some known state whenever TX sees -110 (-ETIMEOUT) on copying the data to the HW FIFO. The TX failure could mean a device bus stuck or function stuck, so the current error recovery implementation is to trigger a bus reset and expect this can bring back the device. Since the TX work is done in a thread context, there may be a queue of TX works already that all hit the -ETIMEOUT error condition because the device has somewhat stuck already. We don't want any consecutive bus resets simply because multiple TX works in the queue all hit the same device erratum, the flag "error_recovery" is introduced to denote if we are ready for taking any error recovery. See @error_recovery doc in i2400m.h. Signed-off-by: Cindy H Kao <cindy.h.kao@intel.com>
2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: fix for missed reset events if triggered by dev_reset_handle()Cindy H Kao2-16/+86
The problem is only seen on SDIO interface since on USB, a bus reset would really re-probe the driver, but on SDIO interface, a bus reset will not re-enumerate the SDIO bus, so no driver re-probe is happening. Therefore, on SDIO interface, the reset event should be still detected and handled by dev_reset_handle(). Problem description: Whenever a reboot barker is received during operational mode (i2400m->boot_mode == 0), dev_reset_handle() is invoked to handle that function reset event. dev_reset_handle() then sets the flag i2400m->boot_mode to 1 indicating the device is back to bootmode before proceeding to dev_stop() and dev_start(). If dev_start() returns failure, a bus reset is triggered by dev_reset_handle(). The flag i2400m->boot_mode then remains 1 when the second reboot barker arrives. However the interrupt service routine i2400ms_rx() instead of invoking dev_reset_handle() to handle that reset event, it filters out that boot event to bootmode because it sees the flag i2400m->boot_mode equal to 1. The fix: Maintain the flag i2400m->boot_mode within dev_reset_handle() and set the flag i2400m->boot_mode to 1 when entering dev_reset_handle(). It remains 1 until the dev_reset_handle() issues a bus reset. ie: the bus reset is taking place just like it happens for the first time during operational mode. To denote the actual device state and the state we expect, a flag i2400m->alive is introduced in addition to the existing flag i2400m->updown. It's maintained with the same way for i2400m->updown but instead of reflecting the actual state like i2400m->updown does, i2400m->alive maintains the state we expect. i2400m->alive is set 1 just like whenever i2400m->updown is set 1. Yet i2400m->alive remains 1 since we expect the device to be up all the time until the driver is removed. See the doc for @alive in i2400m.h. An enumeration I2400M_BUS_RESET_RETRIES is added to define the maximum number of bus resets that a device reboot can retry. A counter i2400m->bus_reset_retries is added to track how many bus resets have been retried in one device reboot. If I2400M_BUS_RESET_RETRIES bus resets were retried in this boot, we give up any further retrying so the device would enter low power state. The counter i2400m->bus_reset_retries is incremented whenever dev_reset_handle() is issuing a bus reset and is cleared to 0 when dev_start() is successfully done, ie: a successful reboot.

2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: fix the race condition for accessing TX queueCindy H Kao2-8/+28

2010-05-11wimax/i2400m: fix insufficient size of Tx buffer for 12 payload of 1400 MTU.Prasanna S. Panchamukhi1-1/+18
This patch increases the Tx buffer size so as to accommodate 12 payloads of 1408 (1400 MTU 16 bytes aligned). Currently Tx buffer is 32 KiB which is insufficient to accommodate 12 payloads of 1408 size. This patch - increases I2400M_TX_BUF_SIZE from 32KiB to 64KiB - Adds a BUILD_BUG_ON if the calculated buffer size based on the given MTU exceeds the I2400M_TX_BUF_SIZE. Below is how we calculate the size of the Tx buffer. Payload + 4 bytes prefix for each payload (1400 MTU 16 bytes boundary aligned) = (1408 + sizeof(struct i2400m_pl_data_hdr)) * I2400M_TX_PLD_MAX Adding 16 byte message header = + sizeof(struct i2400m_msg_hdr) Aligning to 256 byte boundary Total Tx buffer = (((((1408 + sizeof(struct i2400m_pl_data_hdr)) * I2400M_TX_PLD_MAX )+ sizeof(struct i2400m_msg_hdr)) / 256) + 1) * 256 * 2 Signed-off-by: Prasanna S.

This whole patchset is for adding netpoll support to bridge and bonding devices. I already tested it for bridge, bonding, bridge over bonding, and bonding over bridge. It looks fine now. To make bridge and bonding support netpoll, we need to adjust some netpoll generic code. This patch does the following things: 1) introduce two new priv_flags for struct net_device: IFF_IN_NETPOLL which identifies we are processing a netpoll; IFF_DISABLE_NETPOLL is used to disable netpoll support for a device at run-time; 2) introduce one new method for netdev_ops: ->ndo_netpoll_cleanup() is used to clean up netpoll when a device is removed. 3) introduce netpoll_poll_dev() which takes a struct net_device * parameter; export netpoll_send_skb() and netpoll_poll_dev() which will be used later; 4) hide a pointer to struct netpoll in struct netpoll_info, ditto. 5) introduce ->real_dev for struct netpoll. 6) introduce a new status NETDEV_BONDING_DESLAE, which is used to disable netconsole before releasing a slave, to avoid deadlocks.

2010-05-06ixgbe: Streamline MC filter setup for VFsGreg Rose1-2/+11
The driver was calling the set Rx mode function for every multicast filter set by the VF. When starting many VMs where each might have multiple VLAN interfaces this would result in the function being called hundreds or even thousands of times. This is unnecessary for the case of the imperfect filters used in the MTA and has been streamlined to be more efficient.
