Currently, skb->len and skb->data_len are set to the page size, not
the packet size. This causes the frame check sequence to not be
located at the "end" of the packet resulting in ethernet frame check
errors. The driver does work currently, but stricter kernel facing
networking solutions like OpenVSwitch will drop these packets as
invalid.
These changes set the packet size correctly so that these errors no
longer occur. The length does not include the frame check sequence, so
that subtraction was removed.
Tested on Oracle/SUN Multithreaded 10-Gigabit Ethernet Network
Controller [108e:abcd] and validated in wireshark.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

to READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE()
Please do not apply this to mainline directly, instead please re-run the
coccinelle script shown below and apply its output.
For several reasons, it is desirable to use {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() in
preference to ACCESS_ONCE(), and new code is expected to use one of the
former. So far, there's been no reason to change most existing uses of
ACCESS_ONCE(), as these aren't harmful, and changing them results in
churn.
However, for some features, the read/write distinction is critical to
correct operation. To distinguish these cases, separate read/write
accessors must be used. This patch migrates (most) remaining
ACCESS_ONCE() instances to {READ,WRITE}_ONCE(), using the following
coccinelle script:
----
// Convert trivial ACCESS_ONCE() uses to equivalent READ_ONCE() and
// WRITE_ONCE()
// $ make coccicheck COCCI=/home/mark/once.cocci SPFLAGS="--include-headers" MODE=patch

As much as we'd like to play well with others, we really aren't
handling the checksums on non-IP protocol packets very well. This
is easily seen when trying to do TCP over ipv6 - the checksums are
garbage.
Here we restrict the checksum feature flag to just IP traffic so
that we aren't given work we can't yet do.

When running LDom binding/unbinding test, kernel may panic
in ldmvsw_open(). It is more likely that because we're removing
the ldc connection before unregistering the netdev in vsw_port_remove(),
we set up a window of time where one process could be removing the
device while another trying to UP the device. This also sometimes causes
vio handshake error due to opening a device without closing it completely.
We should unregister the netdev before we disable the "hardware".

The sunvnet netdev is connected to the controlling ldom's vswitch
for network bridging. However, for higher performance between ldoms,
there also is a channel between each client ldom. These connections are
represented in the sunvnet driver by a queue for each ldom. The driver
uses select_queue to tell the stack which queue to use by tracking the mac
addresses on the other end of each port. When a connected ldom shuts down,
the driver receives an LDC_EVENT_RESET and the port is removed from the
driver, thus a queue with no ldom on the other end will never be selected
for Tx.
The driver was trying to reinforce the "don't use this queue" notion with
netif_tx_stop_queue() and netif_tx_wake_queue(), which really should only
be used to signal a Tx queue is full (aka XOFF). This misuse of queue
state resulted in NETDEV WATCHDOG messages and lots of unnecessary calls
into the driver's tx_timeout handler. Simply removing these takes care
of the problem.

In this driver, there is a "port" created for the connection to each of
the other ldoms; a netdev queue is mapped to each port, and they are
collected under a single netdev. The generic netdev statistics show
us all the traffic in and out of our network device, but don't show
individual queue/port stats. This patch breaks out the traffic counts
for the individual ports and gives us a little view into the state of
those connections.

When an ldom VM is bound, the network vswitch infrastructure is set up for
it, but was being forced 'UP' by the userland switch configuration script.
When 'UP' but not actually connected to a running VM, the ipv6 neighbor
probes fail (not a horrible thing) and start cluttering up the kernel logs.
Funny thing: these are debug messages that never actually show up, but
we do see the net_ratelimited messages that say N callbacks were
suppressed.
This patch defers the netif_carrier_on() until an actual link has been
established with the VM, as indicated by receiving an LDC_EVENT_UP from
the underlying LDC protocol. Similarly, we take the link down when we
see the LDC_EVENT_RESET. Now when we see the ndo_open(), we reset the
link to get things talking again.

The ldmvsw driver is specifically for supporting the ldom virtual
networking by running in the primary ldom and using the LDC to connect
the remaining ldoms to the outside world via a bridge. With TSO and GSO
supported while connected the bridge, things tend to misbehave as seen
in our case by delayed packets, enough to begin triggering retransmits
and affecting overall throughput. By turning off advertised support for
TSO and GSO we restore stable traffic flow through the bridge.

The use of gotos for handling the incoming events made this code
harder to read and support than it should be. This patch straightens
out and clears up the logic.

In order to allow the underlying LDC and outstanding memory operations
to potentially catch up with the driver's Tx requests, add a memory
barrier before checking again for available tx descriptors.

There have been several changes since the first version of this code, so
we bump the version number. While we're at it, we can simplify the
version printing a bit and drop a couple lines of code.

The vio_dring_state *dr variable is unused in maybe_tx_wakeup().
As the comments indicate, we call maybe_tx_wakeup() whenever we
get a STOPPED LDC message on the port. If the queue is stopped,
we want to wake it up so that we will send another START message
at the next TX and trigger the consumer to drain the dring.

When the sunvnet_common code was split out for use by both sunvnet
and the newer ldmvsw, it was made into a static kernel library, which
limits the usefulness of sunvnet and ldmvsw as loadables, since most
of the real work is being done in the shared code. Also, this is
simply dead code in kernels that aren't running the LDoms.
This patch makes the sunvnet_common into a dynamically loadable
module and makes sunvnet and ldmvsw dependent on sunvnet_common.

napi_complete_done() allows to opt-in for gro_flush_timeout,
added back in linux-3.19, commit 3b47d30396ba
("net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer")
This allows for more efficient GRO aggregation without
sacrifying latencies.

The network device operation for reading statistics is only called
in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure
return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could
incorrectly assume that the return value was used.
Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function.

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:
PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*<asm/uaccess.h>'
sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include <linux/uaccess.h>!" \
$(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)
to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

__bitwise__ used to mean "yes, please enable sparse checks
unconditionally", but now that we dropped __CHECK_ENDIAN__
__bitwise is exactly the same.
There aren't many users, replace it by __bitwise everywhere.

All conflicts were simple overlapping changes except perhaps
for the Thunder driver.
That driver has a change_mtu method explicitly for sending
a message to the hardware. If that fails it returns an
error.
Normally a driver doesn't need an ndo_change_mtu method becuase those
are usually just range changes, which are now handled generically.
But since this extra operation is needed in the Thunder driver, it has
to stay.
However, if the message send fails we have to restore the original
MTU before the change because the entire call chain expects that if
an error is thrown by ndo_change_mtu then the MTU did not change.
Therefore code is added to nicvf_change_mtu to remember the original
MTU, and to restore it upon nicvf_update_hw_max_frs() failue.
