While testing the performance of different receive interrupt
coalescing settings on a single stream TCP benchmark, I noticed two
very different results. With rx-usecs=50, most of the time a
connection would hit 8280 Mbps but once in a while it would hit
9330 Mbps.
It turns out we are only applying the interrupt coalescing settings
to the first queue and whenever the rx hash would direct us onto
that queue we ran faster.
With this patch applied and rx-usecs=50, I get 9330 Mbps
consistently.

After commit d5dbda23804156ae6f35025ade5307a49d1db6d7 "ethtool: Add
support for vlan accleration.", drivers that have NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX,
and/or NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_RX feature, but do not allow enable/disable vlan
acceleration via ethtool set_flags, always return -EINVAL from that
function. Fix by returning -EINVAL only if requested features do not
match current settings and can not be changed by driver.
Change any driver that define ethtool->set_flags to use
ethtool_invalid_flags() to avoid similar problems in the future
(also on drivers that do not have the problem).
Tested with modified (to reproduce this bug) myri10ge driver.

The mlx4_en driver uses the combination stop_port/start_port

The jme driver uses the legacy PCI power management, so it has to do
some PCI-specific things in its ->suspend() and ->resume() callbacks,
which isn't necessary and should better be done by the PCI
sybsystem-level power management code. It also doesn't use device
wakeup flags correctly.
Convert jme to the new PCI power management framework and make it
let the PCI subsystem take care of all the PCI-specific aspects of
device handling during system power transitions.

Avoid theoretical race condition regarding accessing dev->features
NETIF_F_LRO flag, which is illustrated below.
CPU1 CPU2
myri10ge_clean_rx_done(): myri10ge_set_flags():
or
myri10ge_set_rx_csum():
if (dev->features & NETIF_F_LRO)
setup lro
dev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO
or
dev->features &= ~NETIF_F_LRO;
if (dev->features & NETIF_F_LRO)
flush lro
On the way reduce myri10ge_rx_done() number of arguments and calls by
moving mgp->small_bytes check into that function. That reduce code size
from:
text data bss dec hex filename
36644 248 100 36992 9080 drivers/net/myri10ge/myri10ge.o
to:
text data bss dec hex filename
36037 247 100 36384 8e20 drivers/net/myri10ge/myri10ge.o
on my i686 system, what should also make myri10ge_clean_rx_done()
being faster.

The current SocketCAN implementation for the Bosch c_can cell doesn't
account the TX bytes correctly, because it calls
c_can_inval_msg_object() (which clears the msg ctrl register) before
reading the DLC value:
for (/* nix */; (priv->tx_next - priv->tx_echo) > 0; priv->tx_echo++) {
msg_obj_no = get_tx_echo_msg_obj(priv);
c_can_inval_msg_object(dev, 0, msg_obj_no);
val = c_can_read_reg32(priv, &priv->regs->txrqst1);
if (!(val & (1 << msg_obj_no))) {
can_get_echo_skb(dev,
msg_obj_no - C_CAN_MSG_OBJ_TX_FIRST);
stats->tx_bytes += priv->read_reg(priv,
&priv->regs->ifregs[0].msg_cntrl)
& IF_MCONT_DLC_MASK;
stats->tx_packets++;
}
}
So, we will always read 0 for the DLC value and "ifconfig" will report
*0* TX Bytes.
The fix is quite easy: Just move c_can_inval_msg_object() to the end of
the if() statement. So:
* We only call c_can_inval_msg_object() if the message was
actually transmitted
* We read out the DLC value _before_ clearing the msg ctrl
register

The promiscuous QP might also be on of "real" QPs,

commit 86271e460a66003dc1f4cbfd845adafb790b7587 introduced a
regression that caused mac80211 queues in stopped state.
ath_drain_all_txq is called in driver flush which would reset
the stopped flag and the mac80211 queues were never started
after that. iperf traffic is completely stalled due to this issue.
Restart the mac80211 queues in driver flush only if the txqs were
drained.

With the recent tx status optimization in mac80211, we bail out as
and and when invalid rate index is found. So the behavior of resetting
rate idx to -1 and count to 0 has changed for the rate indexes that
were not part of the driver's retry series.
This has resulted in ath9k using incorrect rate table index which
caused the system to panic. Ideally ath9k need to loop only for the
indexes that were part of the retry series and so simply use hw->max_rates
as the loop counter.
Pasted the stack trace of the panic issue for reference.

Move the two offenders to the private structure which is kmalloc-ed,

Commit 44540960 "veth: move loopback logic to common location" introduced
a bug in the packet counters. I don't understand why that happened as it
is not explained in the comments and the mut check in dev_forward_skb
retains the assumption that skb->len is the total length of the packet.
I just measured this emperically by setting up a veth pair between two
noop network namespaces setting and attempting a telnet connection between
the two. I saw three packets in each direction and the byte counters were
exactly 14*3 = 42 bytes high in each direction. I got the actual
packet lengths with tcpdump.
So remove the extra ETH_HLEN from the veth byte count totals.

When the macvlan driver was extended to call unregisgter_netdevice_queue
in 23289a37e2b127dfc4de1313fba15bb4c9f0cd5b, a use after free of struct
macvlan_port was introduced. The code in dellink relied on unregister_netdevice
actually unregistering the net device so it would be safe to free macvlan_port.
Since unregister_netdevice_queue can just queue up the unregister instead of
performing the unregiser immediately we free the macvlan_port too soon and
then the code in macvlan_stop removes the macaddress for the set of macaddress
to listen for and uses memory that has already been freed.
To fix this add a reference count to track when it is safe to free the macvlan_port
and move the call of macvlan_port_destroy into macvlan_uninit which is guaranteed
to be called after the final macvlan_port_close.

I ran into some trouble while testing the SocketCAN driver for the BOSCH
C_CAN controller. The interface is not correctly initialized, if I put
some CAN traffic on the line, _while_ the interface is being started
(which means: the interface doesn't come up correcty, if there's some RX
traffic while doing 'ifconfig can0 up').
The current implementation enables the controller interrupts _before_
doing the basic c_can configuration. I think, this should be done the
other way round.
The patch below fixes things for me.

Kernel panic occurs just after AR2427 establishes connection with AP.
Unless aggregation is enabled we don't initialize the TID structure.
Thus accesing the elements of the TID structure when aggregation is
disabled, leads to NULL pointer dereferencing.
