usbnet: Fix tx_bytes statistic running backward in cdc_ncm

2015-04-27T08:48:14Z

commit 7a1e890e2168e33fb62d84528e996b8b4b478fea upstream. cdc_ncm disagrees with usbnet about how much framing overhead should be counted in the tx_bytes statistics, and tries 'fix' this by decrementing tx_bytes on the transmit path. But statistics must never be decremented except due to roll-over; this will thoroughly confuse user-space. Also, tx_bytes is only incremented by usbnet in the completion path. Fix this by requiring drivers that set FLAG_MULTI_FRAME to set a tx_bytes delta along with the tx_packets count.

usbnet: Fix tx_packets stat for FLAG_MULTI_FRAME drivers

2015-04-27T08:48:14Z

commit 1e9e39f4a29857a396ac7b669d109f697f66695e upstream. Currently the usbnet core does not update the tx_packets statistic for drivers with FLAG_MULTI_PACKET and there is no hook in the TX completion path where they could do this. cdc_ncm and dependent drivers are bumping tx_packets stat on the transmit path while asix and sr9800 aren't updating it at all. Add a packet count in struct skb_data so these drivers can fill it in, initialise it to 1 for other drivers, and add the packet count to the tx_packets statistic on completion.

Revert "cdc_subset: deal with a device that needs reset for timeout"

This reverts commit 20fbe3ae990fd54fc7d1f889d61958bc8b38f254. As reported by Stephen Rothwell, it causes compile failures in certain configurations: drivers/net/usb/cdc_subset.c:360:15: error: 'dummy_prereset' undeclared here (not in a function) .pre_reset = dummy_prereset, ^ drivers/net/usb/cdc_subset.c:361:16: error: 'dummy_postreset' undeclared here (not in a function) .post_reset = dummy_postreset, ^ Reported-by: Stephen Rothwell Acked-by: David Miller Cc: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

cdc_subset: deal with a device that needs reset for timeout

2014-07-29T19:22:15Z

This device needs to be reset to recover from a timeout. Unfortunately this can be handled only at the level of the subdrivers. Signed-off-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

usbnet: include wait queue head in device structure

2014-03-27T18:59:10Z

This fixes a race which happens by freeing an object on the stack. Quoting Julius: > The issue is > that it calls usbnet_terminate_urbs() before that, which temporarily > installs a waitqueue in dev->wait in order to be able to wait on the > tasklet to run and finish up some queues. The waiting itself looks > okay, but the access to 'dev->wait' is totally unprotected and can > race arbitrarily. I think in this case usbnet_bh() managed to succeed > it's dev->wait check just before usbnet_terminate_urbs() sets it back > to NULL. The latter then finishes and the waitqueue_t structure on its > stack gets overwritten by other functions halfway through the > wake_up() call in usbnet_bh(). The fix is to just not allocate the data structure on the stack. As dev->wait is abused as a flag it also takes a runtime PM change to fix this bug.

USBNET: fix handling padding packet

2013-09-28T19:42:49Z

Commit 638c5115a7949(USBNET: support DMA SG) introduces DMA SG if the usb host controller is capable of building packet from discontinuous buffers, but missed handling padding packet when building DMA SG. This patch attachs the pre-allocated padding packet at the end of the sg list, so padding packet can be sent to device if drivers require that.

Pull networking changes from David Miller: "Noteworthy changes this time around: 1) Multicast rejoin support for team driver, from Jiri Pirko. 2) Centralize and simplify TCP RTT measurement handling in order to reduce the impact of bad RTO seeding from SYN/ACKs. Also, when both timestamps and local RTT measurements are available prefer the later because there are broken middleware devices which scramble the timestamp. From Yuchung Cheng. 3) Add TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option to limit the amount of kernel memory consumed to queue up unsend user data. From Eric Dumazet. 4) Add a "physical port ID" abstraction for network devices, from Jiri Pirko. 5) Add a "suppress" operation to influence fib_rules lookups, from Stefan Tomanek. 6) Add a networking development FAQ, from Paul Gortmaker. 7) Extend the information provided by tcp_probe and add ipv6 support, from Daniel Borkmann. 8) Use RCU locking more extensively in openvswitch data paths, from Pravin B Shelar. 9) Add SCTP support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer. 10) Add EF10 chip support to SFC driver, from Ben Hutchings. 11) Add new SYNPROXY netfilter target, from Patrick McHardy. 12) Compute a rate approximation for sending in TCP sockets, and use this to more intelligently coalesce TSO frames. Furthermore, add a new packet scheduler which takes advantage of this estimate when available. From Eric Dumazet. 13) Allow AF_PACKET fanouts with random selection, from Daniel Borkmann. 14) Add ipv6 support to vxlan driver, from Cong Wang" Resolved conflicts as per discussion. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next: (1218 commits) openvswitch: Fix alignment of struct sw_flow_key. netfilter: Fix build errors with xt_socket.c tcp: Add missing braces to do_tcp_setsockopt caif: Add missing braces to multiline if in cfctrl_linkup_request bnx2x: Add missing braces in bnx2x:bnx2x_link_initialize vxlan: Fix kernel panic on device delete. net: mvneta: implement ->ndo_do_ioctl() to support PHY ioctls net: mvneta: properly disable HW PHY polling and ensure adjust_link() works icplus: Use netif_running to determine device state ethernet/arc/arc_emac: Fix huge delays in large file copies tuntap: orphan frags before trying to set tx timestamp tuntap: purge socket error queue on detach qlcnic: use standard NAPI weights ipv6:introduce function to find route for redirect bnx2x: VF RSS support - VF side bnx2x: VF RSS support - PF side vxlan: Notify drivers for listening UDP port changes net: usbnet: update addr_assign_type if appropriate driver/net: enic: update enic maintainers and driver driver/net: enic: Exposing symbols for Cisco's low latency driver ...

USBNET: support DMA SG

This patch introduces support of DMA SG if the USB host controller which usbnet device is attached to is capable of building packet from discontinuous buffers.

USBNET: centralize computing of max rx/tx qlen

2013-07-28T03:10:57Z

This patch centralizes computing of max rx/tx qlen, because: - RX_QLEN()/TX_QLEN() is called in hot path - computing depends on device's usb speed, now we have ls/fs, hs, ss, so more checks need to be involved - in fact, max rx/tx qlen should not only depend on device USB speed, but also depend on ethernet link speed, so we need to consider that in future. - if SG support is done, max tx qlen may need change too Generally, hard_mtu and rx_urb_size are changed in bind(), reset() and link_reset() callback, and change mtu network operation, this patches introduces the API of usbnet_update_max_qlen(), and calls it in above path.

usbnet: allow status interrupt URB to always be active

2013-05-08T20:13:29Z

Some drivers (sierra_net) need the status interrupt URB active even when the device is closed, because they receive custom indications from firmware. Add functions to refcount the status interrupt URB submit/kill operation so that sub-drivers and the generic driver don't fight over whether the status interrupt URB is active or not. A sub-driver can call usbnet_status_start() at any time, but the URB is only submitted the first time the function is called. Likewise, when the sub-driver is done with the URB, it calls usbnet_status_stop() but the URB is only killed when all users have stopped it. The URB is still killed and re-submitted for suspend/resume, as before, with the same refcount it had at suspend. Signed-off-by: Dan Williams Acked-by: Oliver Neukum Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
