gve: Correct ethtool rx_dropped calculation

2026-02-11T12:35:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit c7db85d579a1dccb624235534508c75fbf2dfe46 ] The gve driver's "rx_dropped" statistic, exposed via `ethtool -S`, incorrectly includes `rx_buf_alloc_fail` counts. These failures represent an inability to allocate receive buffers, not true packet drops where a received packet is discarded. This misrepresentation can lead to inaccurate diagnostics. This patch rectifies the ethtool "rx_dropped" calculation. It removes `rx_buf_alloc_fail` from the total and adds `xdp_tx_errors` and `xdp_redirect_errors`, which represent legitimate packet drops within the XDP path.

gve: Fix stats report corruption on queue count change

2026-02-11T12:35:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7b9ebcce0296e104a0d82a6b09d68564806158ff ] The driver and the NIC share a region in memory for stats reporting. The NIC calculates its offset into this region based on the total size of the stats region and the size of the NIC's stats. When the number of queues is changed, the driver's stats region is resized. If the queue count is increased, the NIC can write past the end of the allocated stats region, causing memory corruption. If the queue count is decreased, there is a gap between the driver and NIC stats, leading to incorrect stats reporting. This change fixes the issue by allocating stats region with maximum size, and the offset calculation for NIC stats is changed to match with the calculation of the NIC.

gve: Return error for unknown admin queue command

[ Upstream commit b11344f63fdd9e8c5121148a6965b41079071dd2 ] In gve_adminq_issue_cmd(), return -EINVAL instead of 0 when an unknown admin queue command opcode is encountered. This prevents the function from silently succeeding on invalid input and prevents undefined behavior by ensuring the function fails gracefully when an unrecognized opcode is provided. These changes improve error handling.

gve: Fix stuck TX queue for DQ queue format

2025-08-28T14:24:05+00:00

commit b03f15c0192b184078206760c839054ae6eb4eaa upstream. gve_tx_timeout was calculating missed completions in a way that is only relevant in the GQ queue format. Additionally, it was attempting to disable device interrupts, which is not needed in either GQ or DQ queue formats. As a result, TX timeouts with the DQ queue format likely would have triggered early resets without kicking the queue at all. This patch drops the check for pending work altogether and always kicks the queue after validating the queue has not seen a TX timeout too recently.

[ Upstream commit 12c331b29c7397ac3b03584e12902990693bc248 ] gve_alloc_pending_packet() can return NULL, but gve_tx_add_skb_dqo() did not check for this case before dereferencing the returned pointer. Add a missing NULL check to prevent a potential NULL pointer dereference when allocation fails. This improves robustness in low-memory scenarios.

gve: Fixes for napi_poll when budget is 0

commit 278a370c1766060d2144d6cf0b06c101e1043b6d upstream. Netpoll will explicilty pass the polling call with a budget of 0 to indicate it's clearing the Tx path only. For the gve_rx_poll and gve_xdp_poll, they were mistakenly taking the 0 budget as the indication to do all the work. Add check to avoid the rx path and xdp path being called when budget is 0. And also avoid napi_complete_done being called when budget is 0 for netpoll.

gve: Fix an edge case for TSO skb validity check

2024-08-19T03:45:17+00:00

commit 36e3b949e35964e22b9a57f960660fc599038dd4 upstream. The NIC requires each TSO segment to not span more than 10 descriptors. NIC further requires each descriptor to not exceed 16KB - 1 (GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO). The descriptors for an skb are generated by gve_tx_add_skb_no_copy_dqo() for DQO RDA queue format. gve_tx_add_skb_no_copy_dqo() loops through each skb frag and generates a descriptor for the entire frag if the frag size is not greater than GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO. If the frag size is greater than GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO, it is split into descriptor(s) of size GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO and a descriptor is generated for the remainder (frag size % GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO). gve_can_send_tso() checks if the descriptors thus generated for an skb would meet the requirement that each TSO-segment not span more than 10 descriptors. However, the current code misses an edge case when a TSO segment spans multiple descriptors within a large frag. This change fixes the edge case. gve_can_send_tso() relies on the assumption that max gso size (9728) is less than GVE_TX_MAX_BUF_SIZE_DQO and therefore within an skb fragment a TSO segment can never span more than 2 descriptors.
