2014-11-12phonet: Replace calls to __skb_alloc_page with __dev_alloc_pageAlexander Duyck
Replace the calls to __skb_alloc_page that are passed NULL with calls to __dev_alloc_page. In addition remove __GFP_COLD flag from allocations as we only want it for the Rx buffer which is taken care of by __dev_alloc_skb, not for any secondary allocations such as the queue element transmit descriptors.

2014-11-11net: bcmgenet: apply MII configuration in bcmgenet_open()Florian Fainelli
In case an interface has been brought down before entering S3, and then brought up out of S3, all the initialization done during bcmgenet_probe() by bcmgenet_mii_init() calling bcmgenet_mii_config() is just lost since register contents are restored to their reset values. Re-apply this configuration anytime we call bcmgenet_open() to make sure our port multiplexer is properly configured to match the PHY interface. Since we are now calling bcmgenet_mii_config() everytime bcmgenet_open() is called, make sure we only print the message during initialization time not to pollute the console.

2014-11-11net: bcmgenet: connect and disconnect from the PHY state machineFlorian Fainelli
phy_disconnect() is the only way to guarantee that we are not going to schedule more work on the PHY state machine workqueue for that particular PHY device. This fixes an issue where a network interface was suspended prior to a system suspend/resume cycle and would then be resumed as part of mdio_bus_resume(), since the GENET interface clocks would have been disabled, this basically resulted in bus errors to appear since we are invoking the GENET driver adjust_link() callback.

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jkirsher/net-next Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2014-11-11 This series contains updates to i40e, i40evf and ixgbe. Kamil updated the i40e and i40evf driver to poll the firmware slower since we were polling faster than the firmware could respond. Shannon updates i40e to add a check to keep the service_task from running the periodic tasks more than once per second, while still allowing quick action to service the events. Jesse cleans up the throttle rate code by fixing the minimum interrupt throttle rate and removing some unused defines. Mitch makes the early init admin queue message receive code more robust by handling messages in a loop and ignoring those that we are not interested in. This also gets rid of some scary log messages that really do not indicate a problem. Don provides several ixgbe patches, first fixes an issue with x540 completion timeout where on topologies including few levels of PCIe switching for x540 can run into an unexpected completion error. Cleans up the functionality in ixgbe_ndo_set_vf_vlan() in preparation for future work. Adds support for x550 MAC's to the driver. v2: - Remove code comment in patch 01 of the series, based on feedback from David Liaght - Updated the "goto" to "break" statements in patch 06 of the series, based on feedback from Sergei Shtylyov - Initialized the variable err due to the possibility of use before being assigned a value in patch 07 of the series - Added patch "ixgbe: add helper function for setting RSS key in preparation of X550" since it is needed for the addition of X550 MAC support ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

When advertised capabilities are changed with mii-tool, such as: mii-tool -A 10baseT the existing handler has two errors. - An actual PHY register value is provided by mii-tool, and this must be mapped to internal state with mii_adv_to_ethtool_adv_t(). - The PHY state machine needs to be told that autonegotiation has again been performed.

2014-11-11i40e: don't do link_status or stats collection on every ARQShannon Nelson
The ARQ events cause a service_task execution, and we do a link_status check and full stats gathering for each service_task. However, when there are a lot of ARQ events, such as when doing an NVM update, we end up doing 10's if not 100's of these per second, thereby heavily abusing the PCI bus and especially the Firmware.

2014-11-10mlx4: use napi_complete_done()Eric Dumazet
To enable gro_flush_timeout, a driver has to use napi_complete_done() instead of napi_complete(). Tested: Ran 200 netperf TCP_STREAM from A to B (10Gbe mlx4 link, 8 RX queues) Without this feature, we send back about 305,000 ACK per second. GRO aggregation ratio is low (811/305 = 2.65 segments per GRO packet) Setting a timer of 2000 nsec is enough to increase GRO packet sizes and reduce number of ACK packets. (811/19.2 = 42) Receiver performs less calls to upper stacks, less wakes up. This also reduces cpu usage on the sender, as it receives less ACK packets. Note that reducing number of wakes up increases cpu efficiency, but can decrease QPS, as applications wont have the chance to warmup cpu caches doing a partial read of RPC requests/answers if they fit in one skb.

commit 3cc81d85ee01 ("asix: Don't reset PHY on if_up for ASIX 88772") causes the ethernet on Arndale to no longer function. This appears to be because the Arndale ethernet requires a full reset before it will function correctly, however simply reverting the above patch causes problems with ethtool settings getting reset. It seems the problem is that the ethernet is not properly reset during bind, and indeed the code in ax88772_bind that resets the device is a very small subset of the actual ax88772_reset function. This patch uses ax88772_reset in place of the existing reset code in ax88772_bind which removes some code duplication and fixes the ethernet on Arndale. It is still possible that the original patch causes some issues with suspend and resume but that seems like a separate issue and I haven't had a chance to test that yet.

2014-11-07stmmac: platform: fix sparse warningsAndy Shevchenko
This patch fixes the following sparse warnings. One is fixed by casting return value to a return type of the function. The others by creating a specific stmmac_platform.h which provides the bits related to the platform driver. drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:59:29: warning: incorrect type in return expression (different address spaces) drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:59:29: expected void * drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:59:29: got void [noderef] <asn:2>*reg drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/dwmac-meson.c:64:29: warning: symbol 'meson6_dwmac_data' was not declared.

2014-11-07stmmac: remove custom implementation of print_hex_dump()Andy Shevchenko
There is a kernel helper to dump buffers in a hexdecimal format. This patch substitutes the open coded function by calling that helper. The output is slightly changed: - no lead space - ASCII part will be printed along with the dump - offset is longer than 3 characters (now 8) Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko <andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-11-07net: fec: fix regression on i.MX28 introduced by rx_copybreak supportLothar Waßmann
commit 1b7bde6d659d ("net: fec: implement rx_copybreak to improve rx performance") introduced a regression for i.MX28. The swap_buffer() function doing the endian conversion of the received data on i.MX28 may access memory beyond the actual packet size in the DMA buffer. fec_enet_copybreak() does not copy those bytes, so that the last bytes of a packet may be filled with invalid data after swapping. This will likely lead to checksum errors on received packets. E.g. when trying to mount an NFS rootfs: UDP: bad checksum. From 192.168.1.225:111 to 192.168.100.73:44662 ulen 36 Do the byte swapping and copying to the new skb in one go if necessary.
