2012-04-14e1000e: issues in Sx on 82577/8/9Bruce Allan1-5/+10
A workaround was previously put in the driver to reset the device when transitioning to Sx in order to activate the changed settings of the PHY OEM bits (Low Power Link Up, or LPLU, and GbE disable configuration) for 82577/8/9 devices. After further review, it was found such a reset can cause the 82579 to confuse which version of 82579 it actually is and broke LPLU on all 82577/8/9 devices. The workaround during an S0->Sx transition on 82579 (instead of resetting the PHY) is to restart auto-negotiation after the OEM bits are configured; the restart of auto-negotiation activates the new OEM bits as does the reset. With 82577/8, the reset is changed to a generic reset which fixes the LPLU bits getting set wrong.

This patch adds a source file implementing a PHC. Only the basic clock operations have been implemented, although the hardware would offer some ancillary functions. The code is fairly self contained and is not yet used in the main igb driver. Every timestamp and clock read operation must consult the overflow counter to form a correct time value. Access to the counter is protected by a spin lock, and the counter is implemented using the standard cyclecounter/timecounter code.

2012-04-04ixgbe: driver fix for link flapMultanen, Eric W1-84/+80
Fix up code so that changes in DCB settings are detected only when ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all is called. Previously, a series of 'change' commands followed by a call to ixgbe_dcbnl_set_all() would always be handled as a HW change - even if the net change was zero. This patch checks for this case of no actual change and skips going through the HW set process. Without this fix, the link could reset and result in a link flap. The core change in this patch is to check for changes in the ixgbe_copy_dcb_cfg() routine - and return a bitmask of detected changes. The other places where changes were detected previously can be removed.

2012-03-20ixgbe: Fix issues with SR-IOV loopback when flow control is disabledAlexander Duyck1-1/+8
This patch allows us to avoid a Tx hang when SR-IOV is enabled. This hang can be triggered by sending small packets at a rate that was triggering Rx missed errors from the adapter while the internal Tx switch and at least one VF are enabled. This was all due to the fact that under heavy stress the Rx FIFO never drained below the flow control high water mark. This resulted in the Tx FIFO being head of line blocked due to the fact that it relies on the flow control high water mark to determine when it is acceptable for the Tx to place a packet in the Rx FIFO. The resolution for this is to set the FCRTH value to the RXPBSIZE - 32 so that even if the ring is almost completely full we can still place Tx packets on the Rx ring and drop incoming Rx traffic if we do not have sufficient space available in the Rx FIFO.

2012-03-20ixgbe: fix namespace issues when FCoE/DCB is not enabledJeff Kirsher4-902/+945
Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled. The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace problems. A simple example: ixgbe_main.c - defines func A() - uses func A() ixgbe_fcoe.c - uses func A() ixgbe.h - has prototype for func A() For default (FCoE included) all is good. But when it isn't the namespace checker complains about how func A() could be static. To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.

This patch replaces the variable name data with the variable name features for ixgbe_fix_features and ixgbe_set_features. This helps to make some issues more obvious such as the fact that we were disabling Rx VLAN tag stripping when we should have been forcing it to be enabled when DCB is enabled. In addition there was deprecated code present that was disabling the LRO flag if we had the itr value set too low. I have updated this logic so that we will now allow the LRO flag to be set, but will not enable RSC until the rx-usecs value is high enough to allow enough time for Rx packet coalescing.

This way we don't need the MAPPED_AS_PAGE flag and we always know it will be the first DMA value that we will have to unmap. In addition I have found an issue in which we were leaking a DMA mapping if the value happened to be 0 which is possible on some platforms. In order to resolve that I have updated the transmit path to use the length instead of the DMA mapping in order to determine if a mapping is actually present. One other tweak in this patch is that it only writes the olinfo information on the first descriptor. As it turns out it isn't necessary to write it for anything but the first descriptor so there is no need to carry it forward.

2012-03-17ixgbe: Replace standard receive path with a page based receiveAlexander Duyck3-430/+457
This patch replaces the existing Rx hot-path in the ixgbe driver with a new implementation that is based on performing a double buffered receive. The ixgbe driver already had something similar in place for its' packet split path, however in that case we were still receiving the header for the packet into the sk_buff. The big change here is the entire receive path will receive into pages only, and then pull the header out of the page and copy it into the sk_buff data. There are several motivations behind this approach. First, this allows us to avoid several cache misses as we were taking a set of cache misses for allocating the sk_buff and then another set for receiving data into the sk_buff. We are able to avoid these misses on receive now as we allocate the sk_buff when data is available. Second we are able to see a considerable performance gain when an IOMMU is enabled because we are no longer unmapping every buffer on receive. Instead we can delay the unmap until we are unable to use the page, and instead we can simply call sync_single_range on the half of the page that contains new data. Finally we are able to drop a considerable amount of code from the driver as we no longer have to support 2 different receive modes, packet split and one buffer. This allows us to optimize the Rx path further since less branching is required.
