* sfc: Fix two causes of flush failureBen Hutchings2013-03-281-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commits a606f4325dca6950996abbae452d33f2af095f39, d5e8cc6c946e0857826dcfbb3585068858445bfe, 525d9e824018cd7cc8d8d44832ddcd363abfe6e1 ] The TX DMA engine issues upstream read requests when there is room in the TX FIFO for the completion. However, the fetches for the rest of the packet might be delayed by any back pressure. Since a flush must wait for an EOP, the entire flush may be delayed by back pressure. Mitigate this by disabling flow control before the flushes are started. Since PF and VF flushes run in parallel introduce fc_disable, a reference count of the number of flushes outstanding. The same principle could be applied to Falcon, but that would bring with it its own testing. We sometimes hit a "failed to flush" timeout on some TX queues, but the flushes have completed and the flush completion events seem to go missing. In this case, we can check the TX_DESC_PTR_TBL register and drain the queues if the flushes had finished.

* sfc: Fix maximum number of TSO segments and minimum TX queue sizeBen Hutchings2012-10-021-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 7e6d06f0de3f74ca929441add094518ae332257c ] Currently an skb requiring TSO may not fit within a minimum-size TX queue. The TX queue selected for the skb may stall and trigger the TX watchdog repeatedly (since the problem skb will be retried after the TX reset). This issue is designated as CVE-2012-3412. Set the maximum number of TSO segments for our devices to 100. This should make no difference to behaviour unless the actual MSS is less than about 700. Increase the minimum TX queue size accordingly to allow for 2 worst-case skbs, so that there will definitely be space to add an skb after we wake a queue. To avoid invalidating existing configurations, change efx_ethtool_set_ringparam() to fix up values that are too small rather than returning -EINVAL.

* Revert "sfc: Use write-combining to reduce TX latency" and follow-upsBen Hutchings2011-10-031-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit 86c432ca5d6da90a26ac8d3e680f2268b502d9c5 ] This reverts commits 65f0b417dee94f779ce9b77102b7d73c93723b39, d88d6b05fee3cc78e5b0273eb58c31201dcc6b76, fcfa060468a4edcf776f0c1211d826d5de1668c1, 747df2258b1b9a2e25929ef496262c339c380009 and 867955f5682f7157fdafe8670804b9f8ea077bc7. Depending on the processor model, write-combining may result in reordering that the NIC will not tolerate. This typically results in a DMA error event and reset by the driver, logged as: sfc 0000:0e:00.0: eth2: TX DMA Q reports TX_EV_PKT_ERR. sfc 0000:0e:00.0: eth2: resetting (ALL) Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * sfc: Always map MCDI shared memory as uncacheableBen Hutchings2011-05-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We enabled write-combining for memory-mapped registers in commit 65f0b417dee94f779ce9b77102b7d73c93723b39, but inhibited it for the MCDI shared memory where this is not supported. However, write-combining mappings also allow read-reordering, which may also be a problem. I found that when an SFC9000-family controller is connected to an Intel 3000 chipset, and write-combining is enabled, the controller stops responding to PCIe read requests during driver initialisation while the driver is polling for completion of an MCDI command. This results in an NMI and system hang. Adding read memory barriers between all reads to the shared memory area appears to reduce but not eliminate the probability of this. We have not yet established whether this is a bug in our BIU or in the PCIe bridge. For now, work around by mapping the shared memory area separately.

| * sfc: Do not use efx_process_channel_now() in online self-testBen Hutchings2011-04-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During self-tests we use efx_process_channel_now() to handle completion and other events synchronously. This disables interrupts and NAPI processing for the channel in question, but it may still be interrupted by another channel. A single socket may receive packets from multiple net devices or even multiple channels of the same net device, so this can result in deadlock on a socket lock. Receiving packets in process context will also result in incorrect classification by the network cgroup classifier. Therefore, we must only use efx_process_channel_now() in the offline loopback tests (which never deliver packets up the stack) and not for the online interrupt and event tests. For the interrupt test, there is no reason to process events. We only care that an interrupt is raised. For the event test, we want to know whether events have been received, and there may be many events ahead of the one we inject. Therefore remove efx_channel::magic_count and instead test whether efx_channel::eventq_read_ptr advances. This is currently an event queue index and might wrap around to exactly the same value, resulting in a false negative. Therefore move the masking to efx_event() and efx_nic_eventq_read_ack() so that it cannot wrap within the time of the test. The event test also tries to diagnose failures by checking whether an event was delivered without causing an interrupt. Add and use a helper function that only does this.

* sfc: Remove configurable FIFO thresholds for pause frame generationBen Hutchings2011-02-281-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In Falcon we can configure the fill levels of the RX data FIFO which trigger the generation of pause frames (if enabled), and we have module parameters for this. Siena does not allow the levels to be configured (or, if it does, this is done by the MC firmware and is not configurable by drivers). So far as I can tell, the module parameters are not used by our internal scripts and have not been documented (with the exception of the short parameter descriptions). Therefore, remove them and always initialise Falcon with the default values. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>

* sfc: Remove efx_rx_queue::add_lockSteve Hodgson2010-06-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Ensure that efx_fast_push_rx_descriptors() must only run from efx_process_channel() [NAPI], or when napi_disable() has been executed. Reimplement the slow fill by sending an event to the channel, so that NAPI runs, and hanging the subsequent fast fill off the event handler. Replace the sfc_refill workqueue and delayed work items with a timer. We do not need to stop this timer in efx_flush_all() because it's safe to send the event always; receiving it will be delayed until NAPI is restarted.
