sfc: Track RPS flow IDs per channel instead of per function

2016-06-01T03:30:25+00:00

Otherwise we get confused when two flows on different channels get the
 same flow ID.

usbnet: smsc95xx: fix link detection for disabled autonegotiation

2016-05-31T21:22:23+00:00

To detect link status up/down for connections where autonegotiation is
explicitly disabled, we don't get an irq but need to poll the status
register for link up/down detection.
This patch adds a workqueue to poll for link status.

be executed at the same time. VQ in virtqueue_add() has not been protected
well and BUG_ON will be triggered when virito_net.ko being removed.

bnx2x: avoid leaking memory on bnx2x_init_one() failures

2016-05-31T21:10:34+00:00

bnx2x_init_bp() allocates memory with bnx2x_alloc_mem_bp() so if we
fail later in bnx2x_init_one() we need to free this memory
with bnx2x_free_mem_bp() to avoid leakages. E.g. I'm observing memory
leaks reported by kmemleak when a failure (unrelated) happens in
bnx2x_vfpf_acquire().

vxlan: Accept user specified MTU value when create new vxlan link

2016-05-31T18:46:00+00:00

When create a new vxlan link, example:
  ip link add vtap mtu 1440 type vxlan vni 1 dev eth0

The argument "mtu" has no effect, because it is not set to conf->mtu. The
default value is used in vxlan_dev_configure function.

This problem was introduced by commit 0dfbdf4102b9 (vxlan: Factor out device
configuration).

net: nps_enet: Disable interrupts before napi reschedule

2016-05-30T05:35:21+00:00

Since NAPI works by shutting down event interrupts when theres
work and turning them on when theres none, the net driver must
make sure that interrupts are disabled when it reschedules polling.
By calling napi_reschedule, the driver switches to polling mode,
therefor there should be no interrupt interference.
Any received packets will be handled in nps_enet_poll by polling the HW
indication of received packet until all packets are handled.

remove lots of IS_ERR_VALUE abuses

2016-05-27T22:26:11+00:00

Most users of IS_ERR_VALUE() in the kernel are wrong, as they
pass an 'int' into a function that takes an 'unsigned long'
argument. This happens to work because the type is sign-extended
on 64-bit architectures before it gets converted into an
unsigned type.

However, anything that passes an 'unsigned short' or 'unsigned int'
argument into IS_ERR_VALUE() is guaranteed to be broken, as are
8-bit integers and types that are wider than 'unsigned long'.

Andrzej Hajda has already fixed a lot of the worst abusers that
were causing actual bugs, but it would be nice to prevent any
users that are not passing 'unsigned long' arguments.

This patch changes all users of IS_ERR_VALUE() that I could find
on 32-bit ARM randconfig builds and x86 allmodconfig. For the
moment, this doesn't change the definition of IS_ERR_VALUE()
because there are probably still architecture specific users
elsewhere.

Almost all the warnings I got are for files that are better off
using 'if (err)' or 'if (err < 0)'.
The only legitimate user I could find that we get a warning for
is the (32-bit only) freescale fman driver, so I did not remove
the IS_ERR_VALUE() there but changed the type to 'unsigned long'.
For 9pfs, I just worked around one user whose calling conventions
are so obscure that I did not dare change the behavior.

I was using this definition for testing:

 #define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long*)NULL == (typeof (x)*)NULL && \
       unlikely((unsigned long long)(x) >= (unsigned long long)(typeof(x))-MAX_ERRNO))

which ends up making all 16-bit or wider types work correctly with
the most plausible interpretation of what IS_ERR_VALUE() was supposed
to return according to its users, but also causes a compile-time
warning for any users that do not pass an 'unsigned long' argument.

I suggested this approach earlier this year, but back then we ended
up deciding to just fix the users that are obviously broken. After
the initial warning that caused me to get involved in the discussion
(fs/gfs2/dir.c) showed up again in the mainline kernel, Linus
asked me to send the whole thing again.
