* s390/qdio: extend polling support to multiple queuesJulian Wiedmann2020-03-257-109/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the support for polling drivers was initially added, it only considered Input Queue 0. But as QDIO interrupts are actually for the full device and not a single queue, this doesn't really fit for configurations where multiple Input Queues are used. Rework the qdio code so that interrupts for a polling driver are not split up into actions for each queue. Instead deliver the interrupt as a single event, and let the driver decide which queue needs what action. When re-enabling the QDIO interrupt via qdio_start_irq(), this means that the qdio code needs to (1) put _all_ eligible queues back into a state where they raise IRQs, (2) and afterwards check _all_ eligible queues for new work to bridge the race window. On the qeth side of things (as the only qdio polling driver), we can now add CQ polling support to the main NAPI poll routine. It doesn't consume NAPI budget, and to avoid hogging the CPU we yield control after completing one full queue worth of buffers. The subsequent qdio_start_irq() will check for any additional work, and have us re-schedule the NAPI instance accordingly.

* s390/qeth: remove redundant if-clause in RX poll codeJulian Wiedmann2020-03-251-30/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Whenever all completed RX buffers have been processed (ie. rx->b_count == 0), we call down to the HW layer to scan for additional buffers. If no further buffers are available, the code breaks out of the while-loop. So we never reach the 'process an RX buffer' step with rx->b_count == 0, eliminate that check and one level of indentation.

* s390/qeth: split out RX poll codeJulian Wiedmann2020-03-251-21/+33
| | | | | | | | | | The main NAPI poll routine should eventually handle more types of work, beyond just the RX ring.

* s390/qeth: simplify RX buffer trackingJulian Wiedmann2020-03-252-19/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since RX buffers may contain multiple packets, qeth's NAPI poll code can exhaust its budget in the middle of an RX buffer. Thus we keep track of our current position within the active RX buffer, so we can resume processing here in the next NAPI poll period. Clean up that code by tracking the index of the active buffer element, instead of a pointer to it. Also simplify the code that advances to the next RX buffer when the current buffer has been fully processed. v2: - remove QDIO_ELEMENT_NO() macro (davem) Signed-off-by: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: use indirect call wrappers for skb_copy_datagram_iter()Eric Dumazet2020-03-251-3/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP recvmsg() calls skb_copy_datagram_iter(), which calls an indirect function (cb pointing to simple_copy_to_iter()) for every MSS (fragment) present in the skb. CONFIG_RETPOLINE=y forces a very expensive operation that we can avoid thanks to indirect call wrappers. This patch gives a 13% increase of performance on a single flow, if the bottleneck is the thread reading the TCP socket.

One big issue was broken SGMII support, which Russell fixed already (in net-next). While debugging and understanding the driver, I found several problems in the error handling and cleanup paths, which patches 2-7 address. Patch 8 removes a annoying error message, patch 9 paves the way for newer revisions of the IP. The next patch adds mii-tool support, just for good measure. The next four patches add support for 64-bit DMA. This is an integration option on newer IP revisions (>= v7.1), and expects MSB bits in formerly reserved registers. Without writing to those MSB registers, the state machine won't trigger, so it's mandatory to access them, even if they are zero. Patches 11 and 12 prepare the code by adding accessors, to wrap this properly and keep it working on older IP revisions. Patch 13 enables access to the MSB registers, by trying to write a non-zero value to them and checking if that sticks. Older IP revisions always read those registers as zero. Patch 14 then adjusts the DMA mask, based on the autodetected MSB feature. It uses the full 64 bits in this case, the rest of the system (actual physical addresses in use) should provide a natural limit if the chip has connected fewer address lines. If not, the parent DT node can use a dma-range property. The Xilinx PG138 and PG021 documents (in versions 7.1 in both cases) were used for this series. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net: axienet: Allow DMA to beyond 4GBAndre Przywara2020-03-251-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With all DMA address accesses wrapped, we can actually support 64-bit DMA if this option was chosen at IP integration time. If the IP has been configured for an address width greater than 32 bits, we assume the full 64 bit DMA width is working. In practise this will be limited by the actual system address bus width, which will ideally be the same as the DMA IP address width. If this is not the case, the actual width can still be configured using a dma-ranges property in the parent of the MAC node. This increases the DMA mask on those systems to let the kernel choose buffers from memory at higher addresses. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| * net: axienet: Autodetect 64-bit DMA capabilityAndre Przywara2020-03-252-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When newer revisions of the Axienet IP are configured for a 64-bit bus, we *need* to write to the MSB part of the an address registers, otherwise the IP won't recognise this as a DMA start condition. This is even true when the actual DMA address comes from the lower 4 GB. To autodetect this configuration, at probe time we write all 1's to such an MSB register, and see if any bits stick. If this is configured for a 32-bit bus, those MSB registers are RES0, so reading back 0 indicates that no MSB writes are necessary. On the other hands reading anything other than 0 indicated the need to write the MSB registers, so we set the respective flag. The actual DMA mask stays at 32-bit for now. To help bisecting, a separate patch will enable allocations from higher addresses. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer revisions of the AXI DMA IP (>= v7.1) support 64-bit addresses, both for the descriptors itself, as well as for the buffers they are pointing to. This is realised by adding "MSB" words for the next and phys pointer right behind the existing address word, now named "LSB". These MSB words live in formerly reserved areas of the descriptor. If the hardware supports it, write both words when setting an address. The buffer address is handled by two wrapper functions, the two occasions where we set the next pointers are open coded. For now this is guarded by a flag which we don't set yet. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@arm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Newer versions of the Xilink DMA IP support busses with more than 32 address bits, by introducing an MSB word for the registers holding DMA pointers (tail/current, RX/TX descriptor addresses). On IP configured for more than 32 bits, it is also *required* to write both words, to let the IP recognise this as a start condition for an MM2S request, for instance. Wrap the DMA pointer writes with a separate function, to add this functionality later. For now we stick to the lower 32 bits.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When axienet_dma_bd_init() bails out during the initialisation process, it might do so with parts of the structure already allocated and initialised, while other parts have not been touched yet. Before returning in this case, we call axienet_dma_bd_release(), which does not take care of this corner case. This is most obvious by the first loop happily dereferencing lp->rx_bd_v, which we actually check to be non NULL *afterwards*. Make sure we only unmap or free already allocated structures, by: - directly returning with -ENOMEM if nothing has been allocated at all - checking for lp->rx_bd_v to be non-NULL *before* using it - only unmapping allocated DMA RX regions This avoids NULL pointer dereferences when initialisation fails.

This leads to a kernel panic when the driver later wants to send a packet, as it uses uninitialised data structures. Make the axienet_device_reset() routine return an error value, as it contains the DMA buffer initialisation. Make sure we propagate the error up the chain and eventually fail the driver initialisation, to avoid relying on non-initialised buffers.

| * rtw88: 8822c: config RF table path B before path AYan-Hsuan Chuang2020-03-231-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | After MAC switched power, the hardware's RF registers will have its default value, but the default value for path B is incorrect. So, load RF path B first, to decrease the period between MAC on and RF path B config. By test, if we load path A first, then there's ~300ms that the path B is incorrect, it could lead to BT coex's A2DP glitch. But if we configure path B first, there will only have ~3ms, significantly lower possibility to have A2DP sound glitch.

| * rtw88: kick off TX packets once for higher efficiencyYan-Hsuan Chuang2020-03-235-56/+136
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Driver used to kick off every TX packets, that will waste some time while we can do better to kick off the TX packets once after they are all prepared to be transmitted. For PCI, it uses DMA engine to transfer the SKBs to the device, and the transition of the state of the DMA engine could be a cost. Driver can save some time to kick off multiple SKBs once so that the DMA engine will have only one transition. So, split rtw_hci_ops::tx() to rtw_hci_ops::tx_write() and rtw_hci_ops::tx_kick_off() to explicitly kick the SKBs off after they are written to the prepared buffer. For packets come from ieee80211_ops::tx(), write one and then kick it off immediately. For packets queued in TX queue, which come from ieee80211_ops::wake_tx_queue(), we can dequeue them, write them to the buffer, and then kick them off together.

| * rtw88: associate reserved pages with each vifYan-Hsuan Chuang2020-03-236-103/+258
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Each device has only one reserved page shared with all of the vifs, so it seems not reasonable to pass vif as one of the arguments to rtw_fw_download_rsvd_page(). If driver is going to run more than one vif, the content of reserved page could not be built for all of the vifs. To fix it, let each vif maintain its own reserved page list, and build the final reserved page to download to the firmware from all of the vifs. Hence driver should add reserved pages to each vif according to the vif->type when adding the vif. For station mode, add reserved page with rtw_add_rsvd_page_sta(). If the station mode is going to suspend in PNO (net-detect) mode, remove the reserved pages used for normal mode, and add new one for wowlan mode with rtw_add_rsvd_page_pno(). For beacon mode, only beacon is required to be added using rtw_add_rsvd_page_bcn(). This would make the code flow simpler as we don't need to add reserved pages when vif is running, just add/remove them when ieee80211_ops::[add|remove]_interface. When driver is going to download the reserved page, it will collect pages from all of the vifs, this list is maintained by rtwdev, with build_list as the pages' member. That way, we can still build a list of reserved pages to be downloaded. Also we can get the location of the pages from the list that is maintained by rtwdev. The biggest problem is that the first page should always be beacon, if other type of reserved page is put in the first page, the tx descriptor and offset could be wrong. But station mode vif does not add beacon into its list, so we need to add a dummy page in front of the list, to make sure other pages will not be put in the first page. As the dummy page is allocated when building the list, we must free it before building a new list of reserved pages to firmware.

| * rtw88: don't hold all IRQs disabled for PS operationsBrian Norris2020-03-232-22/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver generally only needs to ensure that (a) it doesn't try to process TX interrupts at the same time as power-save operations (and similar) (b) the device interrupt gets disabled while we're still handling the last set of interrupts For (a), all the operations (e.g., PS transitions, packet handling) happens in non-atomic contexts (e.g., threaded IRQ). For (b), we only need mutual exclusion for brief sections (i.e., while we're actually manipulating the interrupt mask/status). So, we can introduce a separate lock for handling (b), disabling IRQs while we do it. For (a), we can demote the locking to BH only, now that (b) (the only steps done in atomic context) and that has its own lock. This helps reduce the amount of time this driver spends with IRQs off. Notably, transitioning out of power-save modes can take >3 milliseconds, and this transition is done under the protection of 'irq_lock'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2], introduced in C99: struct foo { int stuff; struct boo array[]; }; By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on. Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by this change: "Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1] This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.
