2017-03-10ethtool: add CRC32 as an RSS hash functionJakub Kicinski1-0/+2

2016-02-26net: ethtool: add new ETHTOOL_xLINKSETTINGS APIDavid Decotigny1-8/+83
This patch defines a new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API, handled by the new get_link_ksettings/set_link_ksettings callbacks. This API provides support for most legacy ethtool_cmd fields, adds support for larger link mode masks (up to 4064 bits, variable length), and removes ethtool_cmd deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). This API is deprecating the legacy ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API and provides the following backward compatibility properties: - legacy ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the get_settings/set_settings callbacks. - legacy ethtool with new get/set_link_ksettings drivers: the new driver callbacks are used, data internally converted to legacy ethtool_cmd. ETHTOOL_GSET will return only the 1st 32b of each link mode mask. ETHTOOL_SSET will fail if user tries to set the ethtool_cmd deprecated fields to non-0 (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). A kernel warning is logged if driver sets higher bits. - future ethtool with legacy drivers: no change, still using the get_settings/set_settings callbacks, internally converted to new data structure. Deprecated fields (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt) will be ignored and seen as 0 from user space. Note that that "future" ethtool tool will not allow changes to these deprecated fields. - future ethtool with new drivers: direct call to the new callbacks. By "future" ethtool, what is meant is: - query: first try ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS, and revert to ETHTOOL_GSET if fails - set: query first and remember which of ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS or ETHTOOL_GSET was successful + if ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS was successful, then change config with ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SSET). + otherwise ETHTOOL_GSET was successful, change config with ETHTOOL_SSET. A failure there is final (do not try ETHTOOL_SLINKSETTINGS). The interaction user/kernel via the new API requires a small ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS handshake first to agree on the length of the link mode bitmaps. If kernel doesn't agree with user, it returns the bitmap length it is expecting from user as a negative length (and cmd field is 0). When kernel and user agree, kernel returns valid info in all fields (ie. link mode length > 0 and cmd is ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS). Data structure crossing user/kernel boundary is 32/64-bit agnostic. Converted internally to a legal kernel bitmap. The internal __ethtool_get_settings kernel helper will gradually be replaced by __ethtool_get_link_ksettings by the time the first "link_settings" drivers start to appear. So this patch doesn't change it, it will be removed before it needs to be changed. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <decot@googlers.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2016-02-20net/ethtool: support set coalesce per queueKan Liang1-0/+7
This patch implements sub command ETHTOOL_SCOALESCE for ioctl ETHTOOL_PERQUEUE. It introduces an interface set_per_queue_coalesce to set coalesce of each masked queue to device driver. The wanted coalesce information are stored in "data" for each masked queue, which can copy from userspace. If it fails to set coalesce to device driver, the value which already set to specific queue will be tried to rollback.

2014-12-09ethtool: Support for configurable RSS hash functionEyal Perry1-12/+30
This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or setting the RSS hash function. It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly. This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the driver implementation of set_rxfh. User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS. Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also assumed it is Toeplitz.

The current descriptions state that these fields specify 'How many packets to delay ... after a packet ...' which implies that the hardware should wait for (max_coalesced_frames + 1) completions before generating an interrupt. It is also stated that setting both this field and the corresponding 'coalesce_usecs' field to 0 is invalid. Together, this implies that the hardware must always be configured to delay a completion IRQ for at least 1 usec or 1 more completion.

External loopback test can be performed by application without any driver support on normal Ethernet cards. But on CNA devices, where multiple functions share same physical port. Here internal loopback test and external loopback test can be initiated by multiple functions at same time. To co exist all functions, firmware need to regulate what test can be run by which function. So before performing external loopback test, command need to send to firmware, which will quiescent other functions. User may not want to run external loopback test always. As special cable need to be connected for this test. So adding explicit flag in ethtool self test, which will specify interface to perform external loopback test.

This change is meant to remove all support for displaying an ntuple as strings via ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE. The reason for this change is due to the fact that multiple issues have been found including: - Multiple buffer overruns for strings being displayed. - Incorrect filters displayed, cleared filters with ring of -2 are displayed - Setting get_rx_ntuple displays no rules if defined. - Endianess wrong on displayed values. - Hard limit of 1024 filters makes display functionality extremely limited The only driver that had supported this interface was ixgbe. Since it no longer uses the interface and due to the issues mentioned above I am submitting this patch to remove it. v2: Updated based on comments from Ben Hutchings - Left ETH_SS_NTUPLE_FILTERS in code but commented on it being deprecated - Removed ethtool_rx_ntuple_list and ethtool_rx_ntuple_flow_spec_container - Left ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE but commented it as deprecated Also cleaned up set_rx_ntuple since there is no flow spec container to maintain we can drop all the code for the alloc and free of it and just return ops->set_rx_ntuple().

2011-05-13ethtool: Added support for FW dumpAnirban Chakraborty1-0/+31
Added code to take FW dump via ethtool. Dump level can be controlled via setting the dump flag. A get function is provided to query the current setting of the dump flag. Dump data is obtained from the driver via a separate get function. Changes from v3: Fixed buffer length issue in ethtool_get_dump_data function. Updated kernel doc for ethtool_dump struct and get_dump_flag function. Changes from v2: Provided separate commands for get flag and data. Check for minimum of the two buffer length obtained via ethtool and driver and use that for dump buffer Pass up the driver return error codes up to the caller. Added kernel doc comments.

2011-05-08ethtool: remove phys_id from ethtool_opsStephen Hemminger1-7/+0
After that all the upstream kernel drivers now use phys_id, and the old ethtool_ops interface (phys_id) can be removed. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2011-04-30ethtool: Call ethtool's get/set_settings callbacks with cleaned dataDavid Decotigny1-1/+3
This makes sure that when a driver calls the ethtool's get/set_settings() callback of another driver, the data passed to it is clean. This guarantees that speed_hi will be zeroed correctly if the called callback doesn't explicitely set it: we are sure we don't get a corrupted speed from the underlying driver. We also take care of setting the cmd field appropriately (ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET). This applies to dev_ethtool_get_settings(), which now makes sure it sets up that ethtool command parameter correctly before passing it to drivers. This also means that whoever calls dev_ethtool_get_settings() does not have to clean the ethtool command parameter. This function also becomes an exported symbol instead of an inline. All drivers visible to make allyesconfig under x86_64 have been updated. Signed-off-by: David Decotigny <decot@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
