ibmveth: fix bad UDP checksums

2008-08-27T09:36:57Z

This patch fixes a ibmveth bug where bad UDP checksums are being transmitted when checksum offloading is enabled. The hypervisor does checksum offloading only on TCP packets, so ibmveth calls skb_checksum_help() for any other protocol. The bug happens because the packet is being modified after the DMA map, so we would need a memory barrier before making the hypervisor call. Reordering the code so that the DMA map happens after skb_checksum_help() has the additional advantage of fixing a DMA map leak if skb_checksum_help() where to fail.

ibmveth: Fix multiple errors with dma_mapping_error conversion

2008-07-28T06:30:51Z

The addition of an argument to dma_mapping_error() in commit 8d8bb39b9eba32dd70e87fd5ad5c5dd4ba118e06 "dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()" left a bit of fallout: drivers/net/ibmveth.c:263: error: too few arguments to function 'dma_mapping_error' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:264: error: expected ')' before 'goto' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:284: error: expected expression before '}' token drivers/net/ibmveth.c:297: error: too few arguments to function 'dma_mapping_error' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:298: error: expected ')' before 'dma_unmap_single' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:306: error: expected expression before '}' token drivers/net/ibmveth.c:491: error: too few arguments to function 'dma_mapping_error' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:927: error: too few arguments to function 'dma_mapping_error' drivers/net/ibmveth.c:927: error: expected ')' before '{' token drivers/net/ibmveth.c:974: error: expected expression before '}' token drivers/net/ibmveth.c:914: error: label 'out' used but not defined m Signed-off-by: Stephen Rothwell Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()

2008-07-26T19:00:03Z

Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

ibmveth: enable driver for CMO

2008-07-25T05:44:44Z

Enable ibmveth for Cooperative Memory Overcommitment (CMO). For this driver it means calculating a desired amount of IO memory based on the current MTU and updating this value with the bus when MTU changes occur. Because DMA mappings can fail, we have added a bounce buffer for temporary cases where the driver can not map IO memory for the buffer pool. The following changes are made to enable the driver for CMO: * DMA mapping errors will not result in error messages if entitlement has been exceeded and resources were not available. * DMA mapping errors are handled gracefully, ibmveth_replenish_buffer_pool() is corrected to check the return from dma_map_single and fail gracefully. * The driver will have a get_desired_dma function defined to function in a CMO environment. * When the MTU is changed, the driver will update the device IO entitlement Signed-off-by: Robert Jennings Signed-off-by: Brian King Signed-off-by: Santiago Leon Acked-by: Paul Mackerras Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt

net: Remove unnecessary inclusions of asm/semaphore.h

2008-04-19T02:15:50Z

None of these files use any of the functionality promised by asm/semaphore.h. It's possible that they rely on it dragging in some unrelated header file, but I can't build all these files, so we'll have fix any build failures as they come up. Signed-off-by: Matthew Wilcox

Use single_open instead of manual manipulations.

The code opening proc entry for each device makes the same thing, as the single_open does, so remove the unneeded code. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik
