Our pseries hcall interfaces are out of control:
plpar_hcall_norets
plpar_hcall
plpar_hcall_8arg_2ret
plpar_hcall_4out
plpar_hcall_7arg_7ret
plpar_hcall_9arg_9ret
Create 3 interfaces to cover all cases:
plpar_hcall_norets: 7 arguments no returns
plpar_hcall: 6 arguments 4 returns
plpar_hcall9: 9 arguments 9 returns
There are only 2 cases in the kernel that need plpar_hcall9, hopefully
we can keep it that way.
Pass in a buffer to stash return parameters so we avoid the &dummy1,
&dummy2 madness.

ibmveth_printk() is only used to print the driver version when the module
initializes, which means on all machines as long as it's compiled in.
If it's really only needed for debugging, boot with loglevel=8, or get
it from dmesg instead.

This patch provides a sysfs interface to change some properties of the
ibmveth buffer pools (size of the buffers, number of buffers per pool,
and whether a pool is active). Ethernet drivers use ethtool to provide
this type of functionality. However, the buffers in the ibmveth driver
can have an arbitrary size (not only regular, mini, and jumbo which are
the only sizes that ethtool can change), and also ibmveth can have an
arbitrary number of buffer pools
Under heavy load we have seen dropped packets which obviously kills TCP
performance. We have created several fixes that mitigate this issue,
but we definitely need a way of changing the number of buffers for an
adapter dynamically. Also, changing the size of the buffers allows
users to change the MTU to something big (bigger than a jumbo frame)
greatly improving performance on partition to partition transfers.
The patch creates directories pool1...pool4 in the device directory in
sysfs, each with files: num, size, and active (which default to the
values in the mainline version).
Comments and suggestions are welcome...

This patch removes almost all inclusions of linux/version.h. The 3
#defines are unused in most of the touched files.
A few drivers use the simple KERNEL_VERSION(a,b,c) macro, which is
unfortunatly in linux/version.h.
There are also lots of #ifdef for long obsolete kernels, this was not
touched. In a few places, the linux/version.h include was move to where
the LINUX_VERSION_CODE was used.
quilt vi `find * -type f -name "*.[ch]"|xargs grep -El '(UTS_RELEASE|LINUX_VERSION_CODE|KERNEL_VERSION|linux/version.h)'|grep -Ev '(/(boot|coda|drm)/|~$)'`
search pattern:
/UTS_RELEASE\|LINUX_VERSION_CODE\|KERNEL_VERSION\|linux\/\(utsname\|version\).h

This patch fixes a bug that happens when the hypervisor can't add a
buffer. The old code wrote IBM_VETH_INVALID_MAP into the free_map
array, so next time the index was used, a ibmveth_assert() caught it and
called BUG(). The patch writes the right value into the free_map array
so that the index can be reused.

This patch adds the lockless TX feature to the ibmveth driver. The
hypervisor has its own locking so the only change that is necessary is
to protect the statistics counters.

This patch removes the allocation of RX skb's buffers from a workqueue
to be called directly at RX processing time. This change was suggested
by Dave Miller when the driver was starving the RX buffers and
deadlocking under heavy traffic:
> Allocating RX SKBs via tasklet is, IMHO, the worst way to
> do it. It is no surprise that there are starvation cases.
>
> If tasklets or work queues get delayed in any way, you lose,
> and it's very easy for a card to catch up with the driver RX'ing
> packets very fast, no matter how aggressive you make the
> replenishing. By the time you detect that you need to be
> "more aggressive" it is already too late.
> The only pseudo-reliable way is to allocate at RX processing time.

This patch changes the way the ibmveth driver handles the receive
buffers. The old code mallocs and maps all the buffers in the pools
regardless of MTU size and it also limits the number of buffer pools to
three. This patch makes the driver malloc and map the buffers necessary
to support the current MTU. It also changes the hardcoded names of the
buffer pool number, size, and elements to arrays to make it easier to
change (with the hope of making them runtime parameters in the future).

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
