um: UBD Improvements

2016-12-14T21:46:55+00:00

UBD at present is extremely slow because it handles only one request at a time in the IO thread and IRQ handler. The single request at a time is replaced by handling multiple requests as well as necessary workarounds for short reads/writes. Resulting performance improvement in disk IO - 30% Signed-off-by: Anton Ivanov Signed-off-by: Richard Weinberger

net: use core MTU range checking in misc drivers

2016-10-20T18:51:10+00:00

firewire-net: - set min/max_mtu - remove fwnet_change_mtu nes: - set max_mtu - clean up nes_netdev_change_mtu xpnet: - set min/max_mtu - remove xpnet_dev_change_mtu hippi: - set min/max_mtu - remove hippi_change_mtu batman-adv: - set max_mtu - remove batadv_interface_change_mtu - initialization is a little async, not 100% certain that max_mtu is set in the optimal place, don't have hardware to test with rionet: - set min/max_mtu - remove rionet_change_mtu slip: - set min/max_mtu - streamline sl_change_mtu um/net_kern: - remove pointless ndo_change_mtu hsi/clients/ssi_protocol: - use core MTU range checking - remove now redundant ssip_pn_set_mtu ipoib: - set a default max MTU value - Note: ipoib's actual max MTU can vary, depending on if the device is in connected mode or not, so we'll just set the max_mtu value to the max possible, and let the ndo_change_mtu function continue to validate any new MTU change requests with checks for CM or not. Note that ipoib has no min_mtu set, and thus, the network core's mtu > 0 check is the only lower bounds here. mptlan: - use net core MTU range checking - remove now redundant mpt_lan_change_mtu fddi: - min_mtu = 21, max_mtu = 4470 - remove now redundant fddi_change_mtu (including export) fjes: - min_mtu = 8192, max_mtu = 65536 - The max_mtu value is actually one over IP_MAX_MTU here, but the idea is to get past the core net MTU range checks so fjes_change_mtu can validate a new MTU against what it supports (see fjes_support_mtu in fjes_hw.c) hsr: - min_mtu = 0 (calls ether_setup, max_mtu is 1500) f_phonet: - min_mtu = 6, max_mtu = 65541 u_ether: - min_mtu = 14, max_mtu = 15412 phonet/pep-gprs: - min_mtu = 576, max_mtu = 65530 - remove redundant gprs_set_mtu CC: netdev@vger.kernel.org CC: linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org CC: Stefan Richter CC: Faisal Latif CC: linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org CC: Cliff Whickman CC: Robin Holt CC: Jes Sorensen CC: Marek Lindner CC: Simon Wunderlich CC: Antonio Quartulli CC: Sathya Prakash CC: Chaitra P B CC: Suganath Prabu Subramani CC: MPT-FusionLinux.pdl@broadcom.com CC: Sebastian Reichel CC: Felipe Balbi CC: Arvid Brodin CC: Remi Denis-Courmont Signed-off-by: Jarod Wilson Signed-off-by: David S.

miscdevice: Use module_misc_device() macro

2016-08-31T12:12:35+00:00

This patch removes module_init()/module_exit() from driver code by using module_misc_device() macro. All modules in this patch has a print statement which is removed when module_misc_device() macro is used. If undesirable this patch can be dropped entirely, this is the only purpose of making this as a separate patch. Signed-off-by: PrasannaKumar Muralidharan Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

block, drivers: add REQ_OP_FLUSH operation

2016-06-07T19:41:38+00:00

This adds a REQ_OP_FLUSH operation that is sent to request_fn based drivers by the block layer's flush code, instead of sending requests with the request->cmd_flags REQ_FLUSH bit set. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie Reviewed-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Hannes Reinecke Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe
