net: Eliminate NETIF_F_GEN_CSUM and NETIF_F_V[46]_CSUM

2015-12-15T21:50:20Z

These netif flags are unnecessary convolutions. It is more straightforward to just use NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, NETIF_F_IP_CSUM, and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM directly. This patch also: - Cleans up can_checksum_protocol - Simplifies netdev_intersect_features Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Rename NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK

2015-12-15T21:50:08Z

The name NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is a misnomer. This does not correspond to the set of features for offloading all checksums. This is a mask of the checksum offload related features bits. It is incorrect to set both NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM or NETIF_F_IPV6 at the same time for features of a device. This patch: - Changes instances of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK (where NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is being used as a mask). - Changes bonding, sfc/efx, ipvlan, macvlan, vlan, and team drivers to use NEITF_F_HW_CSUM in features list instead of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM.

sctp: Rename NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM to NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC

2015-12-15T21:49:58Z

The SCTP checksum is really a CRC and is very different from the standards 1's complement checksum that serves as the checksum for IP protocols. This offload interface is also very different. Rename NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM to NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC to highlight these differences. The term CSUM should be reserved in the stack to refer to the standard 1's complement IP checksum.

net/core: fix for_each_netdev_feature

2015-11-03T16:29:57Z

As pointed out by Nikolay and further explained by Geert, the initial for_each_netdev_feature macro was broken, as feature would get set outside of the block of code it was intended to run in, thus only ever working for the first feature bit in the mask. While less pretty this way, this is tested and confirmed functional with multiple feature bits set in NETIF_F_UPPER_DISABLES. [root@dell-per730-01 ~]# ethtool -K bond0 lro off ...

net/core: generic support for disabling netdev features down stack

2015-11-03T04:41:31Z

There are some netdev features, which when disabled on an upper device, such as a bonding master or a bridge, must be disabled and cannot be re-enabled on underlying devices. This is a rework of an earlier more heavy-handed appraoch, which simply disables and prevents re-enabling of netdev features listed in a new define in include/net/netdev_features.h, NETIF_F_UPPER_DISABLES. Any upper device that disables a flag in that feature mask, the disabling will propagate down the stack, and any lower device that has any upper device with one of those flags disabled should not be able to enable said flag. Initially, only LRO is included for proof of concept, and because this code effectively does the same thing as dev_disable_lro(), though it will also activate from the ethtool path, which was one of the goals here.

Turning LRO on or off on the master also turns it on or off on each of the slaves, new slaves are added with LRO in the same state as the master, and LRO can't be toggled on the slaves. Also, this should largely remove the need for dev_disable_lro(), and most, if not all, of its call sites can be replaced by simply making sure NETIF_F_LRO isn't included in the relevant device's feature flags. Note that this patch is driven by bug reports from users saying it was confusing that bonds and slaves had different settings for the same features, and while it won't be 100% in sync if a lower device doesn't support a feature like LRO, I think this is a good step in the right direction.

netdev: introduce new NETIF_F_HW_SWITCH_OFFLOAD feature flag for switch device offloads

2015-02-02T07:16:33Z

This is a high level feature flag for all switch asic offloads switch drivers set this flag on switch ports. Logical devices like bridge, bonds, vxlans can inherit this flag from their slaves/ports. The patch also adds the flag to NETIF_F_ONE_FOR_ALL, so that it gets propagated to the upperdevices (bridges and bonds). Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: Remove MPLS GSO feature.

2014-11-06T07:52:33Z

Device can export MPLS GSO support in dev->mpls_features same way it export vlan features in dev->vlan_features. So it is safe to remove NETIF_F_GSO_MPLS redundant flag. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar

2014-11-05T21:30:03Z

Add a new GSO type, SKB_GSO_TUNNEL_REMCSUM, which indicates remote checksum offload being done (in this case inner checksum must not be offloaded to the NIC). Added logic in __skb_udp_tunnel_segment to handle remote checksum offload case. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
