Currently the iseries_veth driver contravenes the specification in Documentation/networking/driver.txt, in that if packets are not acked by the other LPAR they will sit around forever. This patch adds a per-connection timer which fires if we've had no acks for five seconds. This is superior to the generic TX timer because it catches the case of a small number of packets being sent and never acked. This fixes a bug we were seeing on real systems, where some IPv6 neighbour discovery packets would not be acked and then prevent the module from being removed, due to skbs lying around.

The iseries_veth driver uses the generic TX timeout watchdog, however a better solution is in the works, so remove this code. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

The iseries_veth driver can attach to multiple vlans, which correspond to multiple net devices. However there is only 1 connection between each LPAR, so the connection structure may be shared by multiple net devices. This makes module removal messy, because we can't deallocate the connections until we know there are no net devices still using them. The solution is to use ref counts on the connections, so we can delete them (actually stop) as soon as the ref count hits zero. This patch fixes (part of) a bug we were seeing with IPv6 sending probes to a dead LPAR, which would then hang us forever due to leftover skbs.

This patch makes veth_init_connection() and veth_destroy_connection() symmetrical in that they allocate/deallocate the same data. Currently if there's an error while initialising connections (ie. ENOMEM) we call veth_module_cleanup(), however this will oops because we call driver_unregister() before we've called driver_register(). I've never seen this actually happen though. So instead we explicitly call veth_destroy_connection() for each connection, any that have been set up will be deallocated. We also fix a potential leak if vio_register_driver() fails.

The iseries_veth driver unconditionally calls dma_unmap_single() even when the corresponding dma_map_single() may have failed. Rework the code a bit to keep the return value from dma_unmap_single() around, and then check if it's a dma_mapping_error() before we do the dma_unmap_single().

The iseries_veth driver uses atomic ops to manipulate the in_use field of one of its per-connection structures. However all references to the flag occur while the connection's lock is held, so the atomic ops aren't necessary.

The iseries_veth driver keeps a stack of messages for each connection and a lock to protect the stack. However there is also a per-connection lock which makes the message stack lock redundant. Remove the message stack lock and document the fact that callers of the stack-manipulation functions must hold the connection's lock.

Due to a logic bug, once promiscuous mode is enabled in the iseries_veth driver it is never disabled. The driver keeps two flags, promiscuous and all_mcast which have exactly the same effect. This is because we only ever receive packets destined for us, or multicast packets. So consolidate them into one promiscuous flag for simplicity.

The iseries_veth driver contains a state machine which is used to manage how connections are setup and neogotiated between LPARs. If one side of a connection resets for some reason, the two LPARs can get stuck in a race to re-setup the connection. This can lead to the connection being declared dead by one or both ends. In practice the connection is declared dead by one or both ends approximately 8/10 times a connection is reset, although it is rare for connections to be reset. (an example here: http://michael.ellerman.id.au/files/misc/veth-trace.html) The core of the problem is that the end that resets the connection doesn't wait for the other end to become aware of the reset. So the resetting end starts setting the connection back up, and then receives a reset from the other end (which is the response to the initial reset). And so on. We're severely limited in what we can do to fix this. The protocol between LPARs is essentially fixed, as we have to interoperate with both OS/400 and old Linux drivers. Which also means we need a fix that only changes the code on one end. The only fix I've found given that, is to just blindly sleep for a bit when resetting the connection, in the hope that the other end will get itself sorted. Needless to say I'd love it if someone has a better idea. This does work, I've so far been unable to get it to break, whereas without the fix a reset of one end will lead to a dead connection ~8/10 times.

The iseries_veth driver has a timer which we use to send acks. When the connection is reset or stopped we need to delete the timer. Currently we only call del_timer() when resetting a connection, which means the timer might run again while the connection is being re-setup. As it turns out that's ok, because the flags the timer consults have been reset. It's cleaner though to call del_timer_sync() once we've dropped the lock, although the timer may still run between us dropping the lock and calling del_timer_sync(), but as above that's ok.

Currently the iseries_veth driver prints the file name and line number in its error messages. This isn't very useful for most users, so just print "iseries_veth: message" instead. - convert uses of veth_printk() to veth_debug()/veth_error()/veth_info() - make terminology consistent, ie. always refer to LPAR not lpar - be consistent about printing return codes as %d not %x - make format strings fit in 80 columns Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman <michael@ellerman.id.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@pobox.com>

I had some time to think about PCI assign issues in 2.6.13-rc series. The major problem here is that we call pci_assign_unassigned_resources() way too early - at subsys_initcall level. Therefore we give no chances to ACPI and PnP routines (called at fs_initcall level) to reserve their respective resources properly, as the comments in drivers/pnp/system.c and drivers/acpi/motherboard.c suggest: /** * Reserve motherboard resources after PCI claim BARs, * but before PCI assign resources for uninitialized PCI devices */ So I moved the pci_assign_unassigned_resources() call to pcibios_assign_resources() (fs_initcall), which should hopefully fix a lot of problems and make PCIBIOS_MIN_IO tweaks unnecessary. Other changes: - remove resource assignment code from pcibios_assign_resources(), since it duplicates pci_assign_unassigned_resources() functionality and actually does nothing in 2.6.13; - modify ROM assignment code as per Ben's suggestion: try to use firmware settings by default (if PCI_ASSIGN_ROMS is not set); - set CARDBUS_IO_SIZE back to 4K as it's a wonderful stress test for various setups. Confirmed by Tero Roponen <teanropo@cc.jyu.fi> (who had problems with the 4kB CardBus IO size previously). Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
