* net: make ndo_get_stats64 a void functionstephen hemminger2017-01-081-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The network device operation for reading statistics is only called in one place, and it ignores the return value. Having a structure return value is potentially confusing because some future driver could incorrectly assume that the return value was used. Fix all drivers with ndo_get_stats64 to have a void function. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <sthemmin@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* vmxnet3: add support for get_coalesce, set_coalesce ethtool operationsShrikrishna Khare2016-06-161-0/+158
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The emulation supports a variety of coalescing modes viz. disabled (no coalescing), adaptive, static (number of packets to batch before raising an interrupt), rate based (number of interrupts per second). This patch implements get_coalesce and set_coalesce methods to allow querying and configuring different coalescing modes.

* vmxnet3: add receive data ring supportShrikrishna Khare2016-06-161-11/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vmxnet3 driver preallocates buffers for receiving packets and posts the buffers to the emulation. In order to deliver a received packet to the guest, the emulation must map buffer(s) and copy the packet into it. To avoid this memory mapping overhead, this patch introduces the receive data ring - a set of small sized buffers that are always mapped by the emulation. If a packet fits into the receive data ring buffer, the emulation delivers the packet via the receive data ring (which must be copied by the guest driver), or else the usual receive path is used. Receive Data Ring buffer length is configurable via ethtool -G ethX rx-mini Signed-off-by: Shrikrishna Khare <skhare@vmware.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* vmxnet3: allow variable length transmit data ring bufferShrikrishna Khare2016-06-161-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | vmxnet3 driver supports transmit data ring viz. a set of fixed size buffers used by the driver to copy packet headers. Small packets that fit these buffers are copied into these buffers entirely. Currently this buffer size of fixed at 128 bytes. This patch extends transmit data ring implementation to allow variable length transmit data ring buffers. The length of the buffer is read from the emulation during initialization.

* ethtool: Support for configurable RSS hash functionEyal Perry2014-12-081-2/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch extends the set/get_rxfh ethtool-options for getting or setting the RSS hash function. It modifies drivers implementation of set/get_rxfh accordingly. This change also delegates the responsibility of checking whether a modification to a certain RX flow hash parameter is supported to the driver implementation of set_rxfh. User-kernel API is done through the new hfunc bitmask field in the ethtool_rxfh struct. A bit set in the hfunc field is corresponding to an index in the new string-set ETH_SS_RSS_HASH_FUNCS. Got approval from most of the relevant driver maintainers that their driver is using Toeplitz, and for the few that didn't answered, also assumed it is Toeplitz.

* vmxnet3: fix ethtool ring buffer size settingNeil Horman2013-02-241-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Noticed that vmxnet3's get_ringparam function was returning the summation of all ring buffers on a NIC, rather than just the size of any one ring. This causes problems when a vmxnet3 instance has multiple queues, as ethtool, when setting ring parameters, first gets the current ring parameters to set the existing values in the set_ringparm commannd. The result is, that unless both rx and tx ring sizes are set in a single operation, which ever ring is not set will silently have its ring count multiplied by the number of queues on the NIC until it reaches a driver defined maxiumum value. Fix it by not multiplying the rx and tx ring sizes by the number of queues in the system, like every other driver. Tested by myself successfully.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | During initialization of vmxnet3, the state of LRO gets out of sync with netdev->features. This leads to very poor TCP performance in a IP forwarding setup and is hitting many VMware users. Simplified call sequence: 1. vmxnet3_declare_features() initializes "adapter->lro" to true. 2. The kernel automatically disables LRO if IP forwarding is enabled, so vmxnet3_set_flags() gets called. This also updates netdev->features. 3. Now vmxnet3_setup_driver_shared() is called. "adapter->lro" is still set to true and LRO gets enabled again, even though netdev->features shows it's disabled. Fix it by updating "adapter->lro", too. The private vmxnet3 adapter flags are scheduled for removal in net-next, see commit a0d2730c9571aeba793cb5d3009094ee1d8fda35 "net: vmxnet3: convert to hw_features".
