The while loop after err_slaves should use post-decrement; otherwise
we'll fail to do the kfrees for i==0, and will run into out-of-bounds
accesses if the setup above failed already at i==0.

[I'm not sure why one even bothers populating the -&gt;vlan_filter array:
mlx4.h isn't #included by anything outside
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/, and "git grep -C2 -w vlan_filter
drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/" seems to suggest that the
vlan_filter elements aren't used at all.]

<title>vxlan, gre, geneve: Set a large MTU on ovs-created tunnel devices</title>

<content type='text'>
Prior to 4.3, openvswitch tunnel vports (vxlan, gre and geneve) could
transmit vxlan packets of any size, constrained only by the ability to
send out the resulting packets.  4.3 introduced netdevs corresponding
to tunnel vports.  These netdevs have an MTU, which limits the size of
a packet that can be successfully encapsulated.  The default MTU
values are low (1500 or less), which is awkwardly small in the context
of physical networks supporting jumbo frames, and leads to a
conspicuous change in behaviour for userspace.

Instead, set the MTU on openvswitch-created netdevs to be the relevant
maximum (i.e. the maximum IP packet size minus any relevant overhead),
effectively restoring the behaviour prior to 4.3.

Allow the MTU of geneve devices to be set to large values, in order to
exploit underlying networks with larger frame sizes.

GENEVE does not have a fixed encapsulation overhead (an openvswitch
rule can add variable length options), so there is no relevant maximum
MTU to enforce.  A maximum of IP_MAX_MTU is used instead.
Encapsulated packets that are too big for the underlying network will
get dropped on the floor.

Allow the MTU of vxlan devices without an underlying device to be set
to larger values (up to a maximum based on IP packet limits and vxlan
overhead).

Previously, their MTUs could not be set to higher than the
conventional ethernet value of 1500.  This is a very arbitrary value
in the context of vxlan, and prevented vxlan devices from being able
to take advantage of jumbo frames etc.

The default MTU remains 1500, for compatibility.

Firmware posts the devcmd result in result ring. In case of timeout, driver
does not increment the current result pointer and firmware could post the
result after timeout has occurred. During next devcmd, driver would be
reading the result of previous devcmd.

Fix this by incrementing result even in case of timeout.

<title>tg3: Fix for tg3 transmit queue 0 timed out when too many gso_segs</title>

tg3_tso_bug() can hit a condition where the entire tx ring is not big
enough to segment the GSO packet. For example, if MSS is very small,
gso_segs can exceed the tx ring size. When we hit the condition, it
will cause tx timeout.

tg3_tso_bug() is called to handle TSO and DMA hardware bugs.
For TSO bugs, if tg3_tso_bug() cannot succeed, we have to drop the packet.
For DMA bugs, we can still fall back to linearize the SKB and let the
hardware transmit the TSO packet.

This patch adds a function tg3_tso_bug_gso_check() to check if there
are enough tx descriptors for GSO before calling tg3_tso_bug().
The caller will then handle the error appropriately - drop or
lineraize the SKB.

v2: Corrected patch description to avoid confusion.

The hardware reset is currently done after phy_start() is called,
leading to a race where we can lose the link status if the phy state

The tg3_set_eeprom() function correctly initializes the 'start' variable,
but gcc generates a false warning:

drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c: In function 'tg3_set_eeprom':
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c:12057:4: warning: 'start' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

I have not come up with a way to restructure the code in a way that
avoids the warning without making it less readable, so this adds an
initialization for the declaration to shut up that warning.

The tg3_set_eeprom() function correctly initializes the 'start' variable,
but gcc generates a false warning:

drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c: In function 'tg3_set_eeprom':
drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/tg3.c:12057:4: warning: 'start' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]

I have not come up with a way to restructure the code in a way that
avoids the warning without making it less readable, so this adds an
initialization for the declaration to shut up that warning.
