2014-03-10gianfar: Use Single-Queue polling for "fsl,etsec2"Claudiu Manoil
For the "fsl,etsec2" compatible models the driver currently supports 8 Tx and Rx DMA rings (aka HW queues). However, there are only 2 pairs of Rx/Tx interrupt lines, as these controllers are integrated in low power SoCs with 2 CPUs at most. As a result, there are at most 2 NAPI instances that have to service multiple Tx and Rx queues for these devices. This complicates the NAPI polling routine having to iterate over the mutiple Rx/Tx queues hooked to the same interrupt lines. And there's also an overhead at HW level, as the controller needs to service all the 8 Tx rings in a round robin manner. The combined overhead shows up for multi parallel Tx flows transmitted by the kernel stack, when the driver usually starts returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY leading to NETDEV WATCHDOG Tx timeout triggering if the Tx path is congested for too long. As an alternative, this patch makes the driver support only one Tx/Rx DMA ring per NAPI instance (per interrupt group or pair of Tx/Rx interrupt lines) by default. The simplified single queue polling routine (gfar_poll_sq) will be the default napi poll routine for the etsec2 devices too. Some adjustments needed to be made to link the Tx/Rx HW queues with each NAPI instance (2 in this case). The gfar_poll_sq() is already successfully used by older SQ_SG_MODE (single interrupt group) controllers. This patch fixes Tx timeout triggering under heavy Tx traffic load (i.e. iperf -c -P 8) for the "fsl,etsec2" (currently the only MQ_MG_MODE devices). There's also a significant memory footprint reduction by supporting 2 Rx/Tx DMA rings (at most), instead of 8, for these devices.

2014-03-10gianfar: Separate out the Tx interrupt handling (Tx NAPI)Claudiu Manoil
There are some concurrency issues on devices w/ 2 CPUs related to the handling of Rx and Tx interrupts. eTSEC has separate interrupt lines for Rx and Tx but a single imask register to mask these interrupts and a single NAPI instance to handle both Rx and Tx work. As a result, the Rx and Tx ISRs are identical, both are invoking gfar_schedule_cleanup(), however both handlers can be entered at the same time when the Rx and Tx interrupts are taken by different CPUs. In this case spurrious interrupts (SPU) show up (in /proc/interrupts) indicating a concurrency issue. Also, Tx overruns followed by Tx timeout have been observed under heavy Tx traffic load. To address these issues, the schedule cleanup ISR part has been changed to handle the Rx and Tx interrupts independently. The patch adds a separate NAPI poll routine for Tx cleanup to be triggerred independently by the Tx confirmation interrupts only. Existing poll functions are modified to handle only the Rx path processing. The Tx poll routine does not need a budget, since Tx processing doesn't consume NAPI budget, and hence it is registered with minimum NAPI weight. NAPI scheduling does not require locking since there are different NAPI instances between the Rx and Tx confirmation paths now. So, the patch fixes the occurence of spurrious Rx/Tx interrupts. Tx overruns also occur less frequently now. Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-02-24gianfar: Fix device reset races (oops) for TxClaudiu Manoil
The device reset procedure, stop_gfar()/startup_gfar(), has concurrency issues. "Kernel access of bad area" oopses show up during Tx timeout device reset or other reset cases (like changing MTU) that happen while the interface still has traffic. The oopses happen in start_xmit and clean_tx_ring when accessing tx_queue-> tx_skbuff which is NULL. The race comes from de-allocating the tx_skbuff while transmission and napi processing are still active. Though the Tx queues get temoprarily stopped when Tx timeout occurs, they get re-enabled as a result of Tx congestion handling inside the napi context (see clean_tx_ring()). Not disabling the napi during reset is also a bug, because clean_tx_ring() will try to access tx_skbuff while it is being de-alloc'ed and re-alloc'ed. To fix this, stop_gfar() needs to disable napi processing after stopping the Tx queues. However, in order to prevent clean_tx_ring() to re-enable the Tx queue before the napi gets disabled, the device state DOWN has been introduced. It prevents the Tx congestion management from re-enabling the de-congested Tx queue while the device is brought down. An additional locking state, RESETTING, has been introduced to prevent simultaneous resets or to prevent configuring the device while it is resetting. The bogus 'rxlock's (for each Rx queue) have been removed since their purpose is not justified, as they don't prevent nor are suited to prevent device reset/reconfig races (such as this one).

2014-02-24gianfar: Fix on-the-fly vlan and mtu updatesClaudiu Manoil
The RCTRL and TCTRL registers should not be changed on-the-fly, while the controller is running, otherwise unexpected behaviour occurs. But that's exactly what gfar_vlan_mode() does, updating the VLAN acceleration bits inside RCTRL/TCTRL. The attempt to lock these operations doesn't help, but only adds to the confusion. There's also a dependency for Rx FCB insertion (activating /de-activating the TOE offload block on Rx) which might change the required rx buffer size. This makes matters worse as gfar_vlan_mode() ends up calling gfar_change_mtu(), though the MTU size remains the same. Note that there are other situations that may affect the required rx buffer size, like changing RXCSUM or rx hw timestamping, but errorneously the rx buffer size is not recomputed/ updated in the process. To fix this, do the vlan updates properly inside the MAC reset and reconfiguration procedure, which takes care of the rx buffer size dependecy and the rx TOE block (PRSDEP) activation/deactivation as well (in the correct order). As a consequence, MTU/ rx buff size updates are done now by the same MAC reset and reconfig procedure, so that out of context updates to MAXFRM, MRBLR, and MACCFG inside change_mtu() are no longer needed. The rx buffer size dependecy to Rx FCB is now handled for the other cases too (RXCSUM and rx hw timestamping). Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-02-18gianfar: Add missing graceful reset steps and fixesClaudiu Manoil
gfar_halt() and gfar_start() are responsible for stopping and starting the DMA and the Rx/Tx hw rings. They implement the support for the "graceful Rx/Tx stop/start" hw procedure, and also disable/enable eTSEC's hw interrupts in the process. The GRS/GTS procedure requires however to have the RQUEUE/TQUEUE registers cleared first and to wait for a period of time for the current frame to pass through the interface (around ~10ms for a jumbo frame). Only then may the GTS and GRS bits from DMACTRL be set to shut down the DMA, and finally the Tx_EN and Rx_EN bits in MACCFG1 may be cleared to disable the Tx/Rx blocks. The same register programming order applies to start the Rx/Tx: enabling the RQUEUE/TQUEUE *before* clearing the GRS/GTS bits. This is a HW recommendation in order to avoid a possible controller "lock up" during graceful reset. Cleanup the gfar_halt()/start() prototypes, to take priv instead of ndev as their purpose is to operate on HW. Enabling the RQUEUE/TQUEUE in the hw_init() is not needed anymore since that's the job of gfar_start(). Signed-off-by: Claudiu Manoil <claudiu.manoil@freescale.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-02-18gianfar: Remove sysfs stubs for FIFOCFG and stashingClaudiu Manoil
Removing the sysfs stubs for the Tx FIFOCFG and ATTRELI (stashing) config registers, as these registers may only be configured after a MAC reset, with the controller stopped (i.e. during hw init, at probe() time). The current sysfs stubs allow on-the-fly updates of these registers (the locking measures are useless and only add unecessary code). Changing these registers is discouraged. Only the default values will be used instead. Moreover, the stashing (ATTRELI) configuration options were effectively disabled (didn't get to the hw anyway if changed) because the stashing device_flags (HAS_BD_STASHING|HAS_BUF_STASHING) were "accidentally" cleared during probe().

2014-02-18gianfar: Cleanup/Fix gfar_probe and the hw init codeClaudiu Manoil
Factor out gfar_hw_init() to contain all the controller hw initialization steps for a better control of register writes, and to significantly simplify the tangled code from gfar_probe(). This results in code size and stack usage reduction (besides code readability). Fix memory leak on device removal, by freeing the rx_/tx_queue structures. Replace custom bit swapping function with a library one (bitrev8). Move allocation of rx_/tx_queue struct arrays before the group structure init, because in order to assign Rx/Tx queues to groups we need to have the queues first. This also allows earlier bail out of gfar_probe(), in case the memory allocation fails. The flow control checks for maccfg1 were removed from gfar_probe(), since flow control is disabled at probe time (priv->rx_/tx_pause_en are 0). Redundant initializations (by 0) also removed.

2013-09-03gianfar: Fix reported number of sent bytes to BQLClaudiu Manoil
Fix the amount of sent bytes reported to BQL by reporting the number of bytes on wire in the xmit routine, and recording that value for each skb in order to be correctly confirmed on Tx confirmation cleanup. Reporting skb->len to BQL just before exiting xmit is not correct due to possible insertions of TOE block and alignment bytes in the skb->data, which are being stripped off by the controller before transmission on wire. This led to mismatch of (incorrectly) reported bytes to BQL b/w xmit and Tx confirmation, resulting in Tx timeout firing, for the h/w tx timestamping acceleration case. There's no easy way to obtain the number of bytes on wire in the Tx confirmation routine, so skb->cb is used to convey that information from xmit to Tx confirmation, for now (as proposed by Eric).

2013-08-13gianfar: Add flow control supportClaudiu Manoil
eTSEC has Rx and Tx flow control capabilities that may be enabled through MACCFG1[Rx_Flow, Tx_Flow] bits. These bits must not be set however when eTSEC is operated in Half-Duplex mode. Unfortunately, the driver currently sets these bits unconditionally. This patch adds the proper handling of the PAUSE frame capability register bits by implementing the ethtool -A interface. When pause autoneg is enabled, the controller uses the phy's capability to negotiate PAUSE frame settings with the link partner and reconfigures its Rx_Flow and Tx_Flow settings to match the capabilities of the link partner. If pause autoneg is off, the PAUSE frame generation may be forced manually (ethtool -A). Flow control is disabled by default now. This implementation is inspired by the tg3 driver.

2013-03-20gianfar: Poll only active Rx queuesClaudiu Manoil
Split the napi budget fairly among the active queues only, instead of dividing it by the total number of Rx queues assigned to the given interrupt group. Use the h/w indication field RXFi in rstat (receive status register) to identify the active rx queues from the current interrupt group (i.e. receive event occured on ring i, if ring i is part of the current interrupt group). This indication field in rstat, RXFi i=0..7, allows us to find out on which queues of the same interrupt group do we have incomming traffic once we entered the polling routine for the given interrupt group. After servicing the ring i, the corresponding bit RXFi will be written with 1 to clear the active queue indication for that ring.

2013-02-14gianfar: Fix and cleanup Rx FCB indicationClaudiu Manoil
This fixes a less obvious error on one hand, and prevents futher similar errors by disambiguating and optimizing RxFCB indication, on the other hand. The error consists in NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX flag being used as an indication of Rx FCB insertion. This happened as soon gfar_uses_fcb(), which despite its name indicates Rx FCB insertion, started incorporating is_vlan_on(). is_vlan_on(), on the other hand, is also a misleading construct because we need to differentiate b/w hw VLAN extraction/VLEX (marked by VLAN_RX flag) and hw VLAN insertion/VLINS (VLAN_TX flag), which are different mechanisms using different types of FCBs. The hw spec for the RxFCB feature is as follows: In the case of RxBD rings, FCBs (Frame Control Block) are inserted by the eTSEC whenever RCTRL[PRSDEP] is set to a non-zero value. Only one FCB is inserted per frame (in the buffer pointed to by the RxBD with bit F set). TOE acceleration for receive is enabled for all rx frames in this case. This patch introduces priv->uses_rxfcb field to quickly signal RxFCB insertion in accordance with the specification above. The dependency on FSL_GIANFAR_DEV_HAS_TIMER was also eliminated as another source of confusion. The actual dependency is to priv->hwts_rx_en. Upon changing priv->hwts_rx_en via IOCTL, the gfar device is being restarted and on init_mac() the priv->hwts_rx_en flag determines RxFCB insertion, and rctrl is programmed accordingly. The patch takes care of this case too. Though maybe not as self documenting as the inlining version uses_fcb(), priv->uses_rxfcb has the main purpose to quickly signal, on the hot path, that the incoming frame has a *Rx* FCB block inserted which needs to be pulled out before passing the skb to the stack. This is a performance critical operation, it needs to happen fast, that's why uses_rxfcb is placed in the first cacheline of gfar_private. This is also why a cached rctrl cannot be used instead: 1) because we don't have 32 bits available in the first cacheline of gfar_priv (but only 16); 2) bit operations are expensive on the hot path.

2013-02-14gianfar: Cleanup and optimize struct gfar_privateClaudiu Manoil
Group run-time critical fields within the 1st cacheline (32B) followed by the tx|rx_queue reference arrays and the interrupt group instances (gfargrp), all cacheline aligned. This has several benefits. Firstly comes the performance benefit by having the members required by the driver's hot path re-grouped in the structure's first cache lines, whereas the unimportant members were pushed towards the end of the struct. Another benefit comes from eliminating a 24 byte memory hole that was rendering gfar_priv's 2nd cacheline useless. The default gcc layout of gfar_private leaves an implicit 24 byte hole after the errata (enum) member. This patch fixes it. The uchar bitfields were pushed towards the end of the struct as these are not run-time performance critical (used for init time operations). Because there is no other 2 byte member around to couple the uchar bitfields memeber with, we will have an addititnal 2 byte hole after the bitfields. This is unsignificant however, and it doesn't influence gfar_priv's size, because the whole structure is padded to be a 32B multiple.

Basically, instead of accessing priv to get the ofdev reference and then accessing the ofdev structure to dereference the needed dev pointer, we will get the dev pointer directly from priv. The dev pointer is required on the hot path, see gfar_new_rxbdp or gfar_clean_rx_ring (or xmit), and this patch makes it available directly from priv's 1st cacheline.

2013-02-12gianfar: remove largely unused gfar_stats structPaul Gortmaker
The gfar_stats struct is only used in copying out data via ethtool. It is declared as the extra stats, followed by the rmon stats. However, the rmon stats are never actually ever used in the driver; instead the rmon data is a u32 register read that is cast directly into the ethtool buf. It seems the only reason rmon is in the struct at all is to give the offset(s) at which it should be exported into the ethtool buffer. But note gfar_stats doesn't contain a gfar_extra_stats as a substruct -- instead it contains a u64 array of equal element count. This implicitly means we have two independent declarations of what gfar_extra_stats really is. Rather than have this duality, we already have defines which give us the offset directly, and hence do not need the struct at all. Further, since we know the extra_stats is unconditionally always present, we can write it out to the ethtool buf 1st, and then optionally write out the rmon data. There is no need for two independent loops, both of which are simply copying out the extra_stats to buf offset zero. This also helps pave the way towards allowing the extra stats fields to be converted to atomic64_t values, without having their types directly influencing the ethtool stats export code (gfar_fill_stats) that expects to deal with u64.

2012-01-12gianfar: Fix invalid TX frames returned on error queue when time stampingManfred Rudigier
When TX time stamping for PTP messages is enabled on a socket, a time stamp is returned on the socket error queue to the user space application after the frame was transmitted. The transmitted frame is also returned on the error queue so that an application knows to which frame the time stamp belongs. In the current implementation the TxFCB is immediately followed by the frame. Since the eTSEC inserts the TX time stamp 8 bytes after the TxFCB, parts of the frame have been overwritten and an invalid frame was returned on the socket error queue. This patch fixes the described problem by adding additional 16 padding bytes between the TxFCB and the frame for all messages sent from a time stamping enabled socket (other sockets are not affected).
