We have observed unstable link with a new BNT switch. Add wide_ppm_offset parameter to allow the user to control the clock ppm offset on the CX4 interface for better compatibility. Default is 100ppm, setting it to 1 will increase it to 300ppm. Change default SerDes1 reference clock to external source.

SFP+ PHY initialization has very long delays, incorrect settings for direct attach copper cables, and inconsistent link detection. Adjust delays to the minimum required by the PHY. Worst case is now less than 4 seconds. Add new register settings for direct attach cables. Change link detection logic to use two new registers for more consistent link state detection. Reorganize code to shorten line length. Signed-off-by: Chien Tung <chien.tin.tung@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

We are getting crash or hung situation when we are running network cable pull tests during RDMA traffic. In schedule_nes_timer(), we return an error if nes_nic_cm_xmit() returns failure. This is changed to success as skb is being put on the timer routines to be processed later. In send_syn() case, we are indicating connect failure once from nes_connect() and the other when the rexmit retries expires. The other issue is skb->users which we are incrementing before calling nes_nic_cm_xmit() which calls dev_queue_xmit() but in case of failure we are decrementing the skb->users at the same time putting the skb on the rexmit path. Even if dev_queue_xmit() fails, the skb->users is decremented already. We are removing the decrement of skb->users in case of failure from both schedule_nes_timer() as well as from nes_cm_timer_tick(). There is also extra check in nes_cm_timer_tick() for rexmit failure which does a break from the loop is removed. This causes problem as the other nodes have their cm_node->ref_count incremented and are not processed.

Fix issues found by static code analysis: (1) Check if cm_node was successfully created for loopback connection. (2) schedule_nes_timer() does not free up allocated memory after encountering an error. There is a WARN_ON() for this condition. (3) there is a cm_node->freed flag which is set but not used.

The were some incorrect casts to unsigned long that caused 64-bit values to be truncated on 32-bit architectures and made the driver pass invalid adresses and lengths to the hardware. The problems were primarily seen with kernels with highmem configured but some could show up in non-highmem kernels, too.

When doing rdma_resolve_addr(), if the relevant IB port is down, the function fails and the cm_id is not bound to the correct device. Therefore, application does not have a device handle and cannot wait for the port to become active. The function fails because the underlying IPoIB interface is not joined to the broadcast group and therefore the SA does not have a multicast record to take a Q_Key from. The fix is to use lazy Q_Key resolution - cma_set_qkey() will set id_priv->qkey if it was not set, and will be called just before the Q_Key is really required.

When joining an IPoIB multicast group, use the same rate as in the broadcast group. Otherwise, if the RDMA CM creates this group before IPoIB does, it might get a different rate. This will cause IPoIB to fail joining to the same group later on, because IPoIB uses strict rate selection.

Commit 793730bf ("mlx4_core: Don't perform SET_PORT command for Ethernet ports") introduced a leak of mailbox buffers when SET_PORT was called for Ethernet ports, since it added a return after the mailbox was allocated. Fix this by checking the port type and returning *before* allocating the mailbox. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

The cxgb3 l2t entry, hwtid, and dst entry were being released before all the iwch_ep references were released. This can cause a crash in t3_l2t_send_slow() and other places where the l2t entry is used. The fix is to defer releasing these resources until all endpoint references are gone. Details: - move flags field to the iwch_ep_common struct. - add a flag indicating resources are to be released. - release resources at endpoint free time instead of close/abort time.

This patch removes all the virtual A-MPDU-queue bookkeeping from mac80211. Curiously, iwlwifi already does its own bookkeeping, so it doesn't require much changes except where it needs to handle starting and stopping the queues in mac80211. To handle the queue stop/wake properly, we rewrite the software queue number for aggregation frames and internally to iwlwifi keep track of the queues that map into the same AC queue, and only talk to mac80211 about the AC queue. The implementation requires calling two new functions, iwl_stop_queue and iwl_wake_queue instead of the mac80211 counterparts.

Instead of stopping the entire AC queue when enabling aggregation (which was only done for hardware with aggregation queues) buffer the packets for each station, and release them to the pending skb queue once aggregation is turned on successfully. We get a little more code, but it becomes conceptually simpler and we can remove the entire virtual queue mechanism from mac80211 in a follow-up patch. This changes how mac80211 behaves towards drivers that support aggregation but have no hardware queues -- those drivers will now not be handed packets while the aggregation session is being established, but only after it has been fully established.

We just found a bug in zd1211rw where it would reject packets in the ->tx() method but leave them modified, which would cause retransmit attempts with completely bogus skbs, eventually leading to a panic due to not having enough headroom in those. This patch adds a sanity check to mac80211 to catch such driver mistakes; in this case we warn and drop the skb. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

When TX aggregation becomes operational, we do a number of steps: 1) print a debug message 2) wake the virtual queue 3) notify the driver Unfortunately, 1) and 3) are only done if the driver is first to reply to the aggregation request, it is, however, possible that the remote station replies before the driver! Thus, unify the code for this and call the new function ieee80211_agg_tx_operational in both places where TX aggregation can become operational. Additionally, rename the driver notification from IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_RESUME to IEEE80211_AMPDU_TX_OPERATIONAL. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Signed-off-by: John W.

__ieee80211_tx takes a struct ieee80211_tx_data argument, but only uses a few of its members, namely 'skb' and 'sta'. Make that explicit, so that less internal knowledge is required in ieee80211_tx_pending and the possibility of introducing errors here is removed.

The pending packets code is quite incomprehensible, uses memory barriers nobody really understands, etc. This patch reworks it entirely, using the queue spinlock, proper stop bits and the skb queues themselves to indicate whether packets are pending or not (rather than a separate variable like before).

Internally, mac80211 requires the skb's queue mapping to be set to the AC queue, not the virtual A-MPDU queue. This is not done correctly currently, this patch moves the code down to directly before the driver is invoked and adds a comment that it will be moved into the driver later. Since this requires __ieee80211_tx() to have the sta pointer, make sure to provide it in ieee80211_tx_pending(). Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Reviewed-by: Luis R.

Fragmentation currently uses an allocated array to store the fragment skbs, and then keeps track of which have been sent and which are still pending etc. This is rather complicated; make it simpler by just chaining the fragments into skb->next and removing from that list when sent. Also simplifies all code that needs to touch fragments, since it now only needs to walk the skb->next list. This is a prerequisite for fixing the stored packet code, which I need to do for proper aggregation packet storing. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Reviewed-by: Luis R.

Luis reports that there's a circular locking dependency; this is because cfg80211_dev_rename() will acquire the cfg80211_mutex while the device mutex is held, while this normally is done the other way around. The solution is to open-code the device-getting in nl80211_set_wiphy and require holding the mutex around cfg80211_dev_rename rather than acquiring it within. Also fix a bug -- rtnl locking is expected by drivers so we need to provide it. Reported-by: Luis R.
