s390/qeth: unbreak OSM and OSN support

2017-06-07T10:01:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2d2ebb3ed0c6acfb014f98e427298673a5d07b82 ] commit b4d72c08b358 ("qeth: bridgeport support - basic control") broke the support for OSM and OSN devices as follows: As OSM and OSN are L2 only, qeth_core_probe_device() does an early setup by loading the l2 discipline and calling qeth_l2_probe_device(). In this context, adding the l2-specific bridgeport sysfs attributes via qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() hits a BUG_ON in fs/sysfs/group.c, since the basic sysfs infrastructure for the device hasn't been established yet. Note that OSN actually has its own unique sysfs attributes (qeth_osn_devtype), so the additional attributes shouldn't be created at all. For OSM, add a new qeth_l2_devtype that contains all the common and l2-specific sysfs attributes. When qeth_core_probe_device() does early setup for OSM or OSN, assign the corresponding devtype so that the ccwgroup probe code creates the full set of sysfs attributes. This allows us to skip qeth_l2_create_device_attributes() in case of an early setup. Any device that can't do early setup will initially have only the generic sysfs attributes, and when it's probed later qeth_l2_probe_device() adds the l2-specific attributes. If an early-setup device is removed (by calling ccwgroup_ungroup()), device_unregister() will - using the devtype - delete the l2-specific attributes before qeth_l2_remove_device() is called. So make sure to not remove them twice. What complicates the issue is that qeth_l2_probe_device() and qeth_l2_remove_device() is also called on a device when its layer2 attribute changes (ie. its layer mode is switched). For early-setup devices this wouldn't work properly - we wouldn't remove the l2-specific attributes when switching to L3. But switching the layer mode doesn't actually make any sense; we already decided that the device can only operate in L2! So just refuse to switch the layer mode on such devices. Note that OSN doesn't have a layer2 attribute, so we only need to special-case OSM. Based on an initial patch by Ursula Braun.

s390/qeth: handle sysfs error during initialization

2017-06-07T10:01:50+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9111e7880ccf419548c7b0887df020b08eadb075 ] When setting up the device from within the layer discipline's probe routine, creating the layer-specific sysfs attributes can fail. Report this error back to the caller, and handle it by releasing the layer discipline.

qeth: delete napi struct when removing a qeth device

net: better IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE support

2014-10-07T17:22:11+00:00

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets, I found strange dst refcount false sharing. Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal. Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit() before even taking qdisc lock. As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some packet schedulers or classifiers. This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers or qdiscs/classifiers. Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call following helper in their setup instead of the prior : dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE; -> netif_keep_dst(dev); Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers. The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something smarter later.

sched, cleanup, treewide: Remove set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) after schedule()

2014-09-19T10:35:17+00:00

schedule(), io_schedule() and schedule_timeout() always return with TASK_RUNNING state set, so one more setting is unnecessary. (All places in patch are visible good, only exception is kiblnd_scheduler() from: drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/klnds/o2iblnd/o2iblnd_cb.c Its schedule() is one line above standard 3 lines of unified diff) No places where set_current_state() is used for mb().

qeth: don't query for info if hardware not ready.

2014-09-02T20:54:06+00:00

When qeth device is queried for ethtool data, hardware operation is performed to extract the necessary information from the card. If the card is not online at the moment (e.g. it is undergoing recovery), this operation produces undesired effects like temporarily freezing the system. This patch prevents execution of the hardware query operation when the card is not online. In such case, ioctl() operation returns error with errno ENODEV.

s390/qeth: extract qdio buffers from output buffer struct

2014-07-22T07:26:15+00:00

Because of the embedded qdio_buffer array struct qeth_qdio_out_q is quite large resulting in an order 4 allocation. This is likely to fail at runtime and wastes a lot of memory since the actual size is just about 34K. Since there is no need for this buffer to be contiguous split it up using qdio buffer helpers.
