bnx2x: minimize RAM usage in kdump
kdump kernels usually have only a small amount of memory reserved.
bnx2x can be memory-hungry. Let's minimize its memory usage when
running in kdump.
I detect kdump by looking at the "reset_devices" flag. A couple of
storage drivers (cciss, hpsa) use it for the same purpose. I am not sure
this is the best way to solve the problem, but it works.
Should it be made more generic by, say, looking at the total amount
of lowmem instead? Not using TPA by default when lowmem is small and/or
defaulting to fewer queues would help 32bit systems where a driver for
a multi-function multi-queue NIC can consume a significant amount
of available memory. Or do we want no such heuristics?
Is this something to consider doing for other network drivers too?

gianfar: Device reset and reconfig fixes
These patches end up fixing some notable device reset & reconfig
related problems. One issue is on-the-fly (Rx/Tx on) programming
of interrupt coalescing (IC) registers on the processing path,
against HW recommendation. This is an old issue that became visible
after BQL introduction, as under certain conditions (low traffic)
one TX interrupt gets lost and BQL fires Tx timeout as a result.
Another notable issue is a race on the Tx path (xmit, clean_tx)
during device reset (i.e. during Tx timeout watchdog firing)
that leads to NULL access.
Fixing the problematic on-thy-fly register writes (i.e. the IC regs)
required the implementation of a MAC soft reset procedure.
The race leading to NULL access was addressed by fixing the
stop_gfar()/startup_gfar() pair (disable/enable napi a.s.o.)
and adding the device state DOWN to sync with the TX path.
v2: Refactored if() clauses from gfar_set_features(), PATCH 2.

gianfar: Fix Tx int miss, dont write IC on-the-fly
Programming the interrupt coalescing (IC) registers while
the controller/DMA is on may incur the loss of one Tx
confirmation interrupt, under certain conditions. This is
a subtle hw race because it does not occur during a burst
of Tx packets. It has been observed on p2020 devices that,
if just one packet is being xmit'ed, the Tx confirmation
doesn't trigger and BQL evetually blocks the Tx queues,
followed by Tx timeout and an un-responsive device.
This issue was not apparent prior to introducing BQL
support, as a late Tx confirmation was not an issue back then
and the next burst of Tx frames would have triggered the
Tx confirmation/ Tx ring cleanup anyway.
Bottom line, the hw specifications state that the IC registers
should not be programmed while the Rx/Tx blocks (the DMA) are
enabled. Further more, these registers are currently re-written
with the same values on the processing path, over and over again.
To fix this, rewriting the IC registers has been removed from
the processing path (napi poll). A complete MAC reset procedure
has been implemented for the ethtool -c option instead, to
reliably update these registers while the controller is stopped.

gianfar: Fix device reset races (oops) for Tx
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).

gianfar: Fix on-the-fly vlan and mtu updates
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).

As gfar_hw_init() now makes all the register writes @probe()

must be moved further down, just before register_netdev(),
as the last config step when the config values are comitted

The limit should be on the number of queues in the indirection table -

Mitch provides most the work for this series. For the vf driver he
requests a reset on a tx hang, removes vlan filtes on close since we
already remove the MAC filters, fixes some crashes, gets rid of PCI DAC
as it does not mean much on virtualized PCIe parts, skips assigning the
device name that just gets renamed anyway, stores the descriptor ring
size in a manner that allows the use of common tx and rx code with the
PF driver and makes a handful of cosmetic fixes. For i40e he removes
a delay left over from debugging and changes a do/while loop to a for

tcp: use zero-window when free_space is low
Currently the kernel tries to announce a zero window when free_space
is below the current receiver mss estimate.
When a sender is transmitting small packets and reader consumes data
slowly (or not at all), receiver might be unable to shrink the receive
win because
a) we cannot withdraw already-commited receive window, and,
b) we have to round the current rwin up to a multiple of the wscale
factor, else we would shrink the current window.
This causes the receive buffer to fill up until the rmem limit is hit.
When this happens, we start dropping packets.
Moreover, tcp_clamp_window may continue to grow sk_rcvbuf towards rmem[2]
even if socket is not being read from.
As we cannot avoid the "current_win is rounded up to multiple of mss"
issue [we would violate a) above] at least try to prevent the receive buf
growth towards tcp_rmem[2] limit by attempting to move to zero-window
announcement when free_space becomes less than 1/16 of the current
allowed receive buffer maximum. If tcp_rmem[2] is large, this will
increase our chances to get a zero-window announcement out in time.
Reproducer:
On server:
$ nc -l -p 12345
<suspend it: CTRL-Z>
Client:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import socket
import time
sock = socket.socket()
sock.setsockopt(socket.IPPROTO_TCP, socket.TCP_NODELAY, 1)
sock.connect(("192.168.4.1", 12345));
while True:
sock.send('A' * 23)
time.sleep(0.005)
socket buffer on server-side will grow until tcp_rmem[2] is hit,
at which point the client rexmits data until -EDTIMEOUT:
tcp_data_queue invokes tcp_try_rmem_schedule which will call
tcp_prune_queue which calls tcp_clamp_window(). And that function will
grow sk->sk_rcvbuf up until it eventually hits tcp_rmem[2].

When a message could not be sent out because the destination node

sendmsg() as if it had been sent successfully. An application will

problem has existed since the initial commit in 2.6.16.

The of_mdiobus_register_phy() is not setting phy->irq thus causing

they do not install an interrupt handler for the PHY.
Simplify the code setting irq and set the phy->irq at the same

all the cases the code will find:
- Set phy->irq if node has irq property and mdio->irq is NULL
- Set phy->irq if node has no irq and mdio->irq is not NULL
- Leave phy->irq as PHY_POLL default if none of the above

====================
bonding: add an option to rely on unvalidated arp packets
v4 -> v5:
Again per Nik's advise correct the bond_opts restrictions for arp_validate
- set it the same as arp_interval.
v3 -> v4:
Per Nikolay's advise, remove the new bond_opts restriction on modes setting
for arp_validate.
v2 -> v3:
Per Jay's advise, use the 'filter' keyword instead of 'arp' one, and use
his text for documentation. Also, rebase on the latest net-next. Sorry for
the delay, didn't manage to send it before net-next was closed.
v1 -> v2:
Don't remove the 'all traffic' functionality - rather, add new arp_validate
options to specify that we want *only* unvalidated arps.
Currently, if arp_validate is off (0), slave_last_rx() returns the
slave->dev->last_rx, which is always updated on *any* packet received by
slave, and not only arps. This means that, if the validation of arps is
off, we're treating *any* incoming packet as a proof of slave being up, and
not only arps.
This might seem logical at the first glance, however it can cause a lot of
troubles and false-positives, one example would be:
The arp_ip_target is NOT accessible, however someone in the broadcast domain
spams with any broadcast traffic. This way bonding will be tricked that the
slave is still up (as in - can access arp_ip_target), while it's not.
The net_device->last_rx is already used in a lot of drivers (even though the
comment states to NOT do it :)), and it's also ugly to modify it from bonding.
However, some loadbalance setups might rely on the fact that even non-arp
traffic is a sign of slave being up - and we definitely can't break anyones
config - so an extension to arp_validate is needed.
So, to fix this, add an option for the user to specify if he wants to
filter out non-arp traffic on unvalidated slaves, remove the last_rx from
bonding, *always* call bond_arp_rcv() in slave's rx_handler (which is
bond_handle_frame), and if we spot an arp there with this option on - update
the slave->last_arp_rx - and use it instead of net_device->last_rx. Finally,
rename last_arp_rx to last_rx to reflect the changes.
Also rename slave->jiffies to ->last_link_up, to reflect better its
meaning, add the new option's documentation and update the arp_validate one
to be a bit more descriptive.
