Pull networking updates from David Miller:
"Most notable changes in here:
1) By far the biggest accomplishment, thanks to a large range of
contributors, is the addition of multi-send for transmit. This is
the result of discussions back in Chicago, and the hard work of
several individuals.
Now, when the ->ndo_start_xmit() method of a driver sees
skb->xmit_more as true, it can choose to defer the doorbell
telling the driver to start processing the new TX queue entires.
skb->xmit_more means that the generic networking is guaranteed to
call the driver immediately with another SKB to send.
There is logic added to the qdisc layer to dequeue multiple
packets at a time, and the handling mis-predicted offloads in
software is now done with no locks held.
Finally, pktgen is extended to have a "burst" parameter that can
be used to test a multi-send implementation.
Several drivers have xmit_more support: i40e, igb, ixgbe, mlx4,
virtio_net
Adding support is almost trivial, so export more drivers to
support this optimization soon.
I want to thank, in no particular or implied order, Jesper
Dangaard Brouer, Eric Dumazet, Alexander Duyck, Tom Herbert, Jamal
Hadi Salim, John Fastabend, Florian Westphal, Daniel Borkmann,
David Tat, Hannes Frederic Sowa, and Rusty Russell.
2) PTP and timestamping support in bnx2x, from Michal Kalderon.
3) Allow adjusting the rx_copybreak threshold for a driver via
ethtool, and add rx_copybreak support to enic driver. From
Govindarajulu Varadarajan.
4) Significant enhancements to the generic PHY layer and the bcm7xxx
driver in particular (EEE support, auto power down, etc.) from
Florian Fainelli.
5) Allow raw buffers to be used for flow dissection, allowing drivers
to determine the optimal "linear pull" size for devices that DMA
into pools of pages. The objective is to get exactly the
necessary amount of headers into the linear SKB area pre-pulled,
but no more. The new interface drivers use is eth_get_headlen().
From WANG Cong, with driver conversions (several had their own
by-hand duplicated implementations) by Alexander Duyck and Eric
Dumazet.
6) Support checksumming more smoothly and efficiently for
encapsulations, and add "foo over UDP" facility. From Tom
Herbert.
7) Add Broadcom SF2 switch driver to DSA layer, from Florian
Fainelli.
8) eBPF now can load programs via a system call and has an extensive
testsuite. Alexei Starovoitov and Daniel Borkmann.
9) Major overhaul of the packet scheduler to use RCU in several major
areas such as the classifiers and rate estimators. From John
Fastabend.
10) Add driver for Intel FM10000 Ethernet Switch, from Alexander
Duyck.
11) Rearrange TCP_SKB_CB() to reduce cache line misses, from Eric
Dumazet.
12) Add Datacenter TCP congestion control algorithm support, From
Florian Westphal.
13) Reorganize sk_buff so that __copy_skb_header() is significantly
faster. From Eric Dumazet"

The tx_desc struct holds 8 __be64 values. The original code in
ring_tx_db() took a tx_desc pointer then casted it to an int pointer and
then casted it to a u64 pointer. It was confusing and triggered some
static checker warnings.
I have changed the cxgb_pio_copy() function to only take tx_desc
pointers. This isn't really a loss of flexibility because anything else
was buggy to begin with.
I also removed the casting on the destination pointer since that was
unnecessary and a bit messy.

When using a MPC8xx as a router, 'perf' shows a significant time spent in
fs_enet_interrupt() and fs_enet_start_xmit().
'perf annotate' shows that the time spent in fs_enet_start_xmit is indeed spent
between spin_unlock_irqrestore() and the following instruction, hence in
interrupt handling. This is due to the TX complete interrupt that fires after
each transmitted packet.
This patch modifies the handling of TX complete to use NAPI.
With this patch, my NAT router offers a throughput improved by 21%
Original performance:
[root@localhost tmp]# scp toto pgs:/tmp
toto 100% 256MB 2.8MB/s 01:31

RTL8168EP is Realtek PCIe Gigabit Ethernet controller with DASH support.
It is a successor chip of RTL8168DP.
For RTL8168EP, the read/write ocp register is via eri channel type 2, so I
move ocp_xxx() related functions under rtl_eri_xxx. And use r8168dp_ocp_xxx()
for RTL8168DP ocp read/write, r8168ep_ocp_xxx() for RTL8168EP ocp read/write.
The way of checking dash enable is different with RTL8168DP. I use
r8168dp_check_dash()for RTL8168DP and r8168ep_check_dash() for RTL8168EP,
to check if dash is enabled.
The driver_start() and driver_stop() of RTL8168EP is also different with
RTL8168DP. I use rtl8168dp_driver_xxx() for RTL8168DP and
rtl8168ep_driver_xxx for RTL8168EP.
Right now, RTL8168EP phy mcu did not need firmware code patch, so I did not
add firmware code for it.
so I did not add firmware code for it.

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.

Drivers should avoid NETDEV_TX_BUSY as much as possible.
They should stop the tx queue before qdisc even tries to push another
packet, to avoid requeues.
For a driver supporting skb->xmit_more, this is likely to be a prereq
anyway, otherwise we could have a tx deadlock : We need to force a
doorbell if TX ring is full.

In commit 6f2b6a3005b2c34c39f207a87667564f64f2f91a,
# 3c59x: Add dma error checking and recovery
the intent is to split out the mapping from the byte-swapping in order to
insert a dma_mapping_error() check.
Kinda this semantic patch:
// See http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/
//
// Beware, grouik-and-dirty!

- cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z))
+ dma_addr_t addr = pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z);
+ if (dma_mapping_error(&DEV->dev, addr))
+ /* snip */;
+ cpu_to_le32(addr)
However, the #else part (of the #if DO_ZEROCOPY test) is changed this way:
- cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z))
+ dma_addr_t addr = cpu_to_le32(pci_map_single(DEV, X, Y, Z));
// ^^^^^^^^^^^
// That mismatches the 3 other changes!

Let's remove the leftover cpu_to_le32() for coherency.

Adjust fixed_phy_register() to return struct phy_device *, so that

fixed_phy_set_link_update(phydev, fixed_phy_link_update);

When Tx VLAN offloading is disabled frames with size ~ MTU are not
transmitted as the driver does not account 4 bytes of VLAN header added
by stack. It should use VLAN_ETH_HLEN instead of ETH_HLEN.
The second problem is with newer BNA chips (BNA 1860). These chips filter
out any VLAN tagged frames in Tx path. This is a problem when Tx VLAN
offloading is disabled and frames are tagged by stack. Older chips like
1010/1020 are not affected as they probably don't do such filtering.

Earlier change to use usable slave array for TLB mode had an additional
performance advantage. So extending the same logic to all other modes
that use xmit-hash for slave selection (viz 802.3AD, and XOR modes).
Also consolidating this with the earlier TLB change.
The main idea is to build the usable slaves array in the control path
and use that array for slave selection during xmit operation.
Measured performance in a setup with a bond of 4x1G NICs with 200
instances of netperf for the modes involved (3ad, xor, tlb)

====================
pull request: wireless-next 2014-10-03
Please pull tihs batch of updates intended for the 3.18 stream!
For the iwlwifi bits, Emmanuel says:
"I have here a few things that depend on the latest mac80211's changes:
RRM, TPC, Quiet Period etc... Eyal keeps improving our rate control
and we have a new device ID. This last patch should probably have
gone to wireless.git, but at that stage, I preferred to send it to
-next and CC stable."
For (most of) the Atheros bits, Kalle says:
"The only new feature is testmode support from me. Ben added a new method
to crash the firmware with an assert for debug purposes. As usual, we
have lots of smaller fixes from Michal. Matteo fixed a Kconfig
dependency with debugfs. I fixed some warnings recently added to
checkpatch."
For the NFC bits, Samuel says:
"We've had major updates for TI and ST Microelectronics drivers, and a
few NCI related changes.
For TI's trf7970a driver:
- Target mode support for trf7970a
- Suspend/resume support for trf7970a
- DT properties additions to handle different quirks
- A bunch of fixes for smartphone IOP related issues
For ST Microelectronics' ST21NFCA and ST21NFCB drivers:
- ISO15693 support for st21nfcb
- checkpatch and sparse related warning fixes
- Code cleanups and a few minor fixes
Finally, Marvell added ISO15693 support to the NCI stack, together with a
couple of NCI fixes."
For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:
"This 3.18 pull request replaces the one I did on Monday ("bluetooth-next
2014-09-22", which hasn't been pulled yet). The additions since the last
request are:
- SCO connection fix for devices not supporting eSCO
- Cleanups regarding the SCO establishment logic
- Remove unnecessary return value from logging functions
- Header compression fix for 6lowpan
- Cleanups to the ieee802154/mrf24j40 driver
Here's a copy from previous request that this one replaces:
'
Here are some more patches for 3.18. They include various fixes to the
btusb HCI driver, a fix for LE SMP, as well as adding Jukka to the
MAINTAINERS file for generic 6LoWPAN (as requested by Alexander Aring).
I've held on to this pull request a bit since we were waiting for a SCO
related fix to get sorted out first. However, since the merge window is
getting closer I decided not to wait for it. If we do get the fix sorted
out there'll probably be a second small pull request later this week.
'"
And,
"Unless 3.17 gets delayed this will probably be our last -next pull request for
3.18. We've got:
- New Marvell hardware supportr
- Multicast support for 6lowpan
- Several of 6lowpan fixes & cleanups
- Fix for a (false-positive) lockdep warning in L2CAP
- Minor btusb cleanup"
On top of all that comes the usual sort of updates to ath5k, ath9k,
ath10k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210. This time around there are
also a number of rtlwifi updates to enable some new hardware and
to reconcile the in-kernel drivers with some newer releases of the
Realtek vendor drivers. Also of note is some device tree work for
the bcma bus.
Please let me know if there are problems!

Signedness bugs may occur when using signed char for bitops,
depending on if the highest bit is ever used.

This patch removes the spider_net_get_mac_address() call at the end of
the spider_net_set_mac() function. The dev->dev_addr is instead updated
with a memcpy() from sa->sa_data.
Since spider_net_get_mac_address() is not used anywhere else, this patch
also removes the function.

After the packet is successfully sent, we should not touch the packet
as it may have been freed. This patch is based on the work done by
Long Li <longli@microsoft.com>.
David, please queue this up for stable.

When team_notify_peers and team_mcast_rejoin are called, they both reset
their respective .count_pending atomic variable. Then when the actual
worker function is executed, the variable is atomically decremented.
This pattern introduces a potential race condition where the
.count_pending rolls over and the worker function keeps rescheduling
until .count_pending decrements to zero again:
THREAD 1 THREAD 2
======== ========
team_notify_peers(teamX)
atomic_set count_pending = 1
schedule_delayed_work
team_notify_peers(teamX)
atomic_set count_pending = 1
team_notify_peers_work
atomic_dec_and_test
count_pending = 0
(return)
schedule_delayed_work
team_notify_peers_work
atomic_dec_and_test
count_pending = -1
schedule_delayed_work
(repeat until count_pending = 0)
Instead of assigning a new value to .count_pending, use atomic_add to
tack-on the additional desired worker function invocations.

Similar to commit bc23333ba11fb7f959b7e87e121122f5a0fbbca8 ("net:
bcmgenet: fix bcmgenet_put_tx_csum()"), we need to return the skb
pointer in case we had to reallocate the SKB headroom.

ethtool -S reports a new counter, tracking number of time doorbell
was not triggered, because skb->xmit_more was set.
$ ethtool -S eth0 | egrep "tx_packet|xmit_more"
tx_packets: 2413288400
xmit_more: 666121277
I merged the tso_packet false sharing avoidance in this patch as well.
