net: gro: add a per device gro flush timer
Tuning coalescing parameters on NIC can be really hard.
Servers can handle both bulk and RPC like traffic, with conflicting
goals : bulk flows want as big GRO packets as possible, RPC want minimal
latencies.
To reach big GRO packets on 10Gbe NIC, one can use :
ethtool -C eth0 rx-usecs 4 rx-frames 44
But this penalizes rpc sessions, with an increase of latencies, up to
50% in some cases, as NICs generally do not force an interrupt when
a packet with TCP Push flag is received.
Some NICs do not have an absolute timer, only a timer rearmed for every
incoming packet.
This patch uses a different strategy : Let GRO stack decides what do do,
based on traffic pattern.
Packets with Push flag wont be delayed.
Packets without Push flag might be held in GRO engine, if we keep
receiving data.
This new mechanism is off by default, and shall be enabled by setting
/sys/class/net/ethX/gro_flush_timeout to a value in nanosecond.

enic: handle error condition properly in enic_rq_indicate_buf
In case of error in rx path, we free the buf->os_buf but we do not make it NULL.
In next iteration we use the skb which is already freed. This causes the
following crash.

After the EQ is created, it can possibly generate interrupts and the interrupt
handler is referencing eq->dev. It is therefore required to set eq->dev before
calling request_irq() so if an event is generated before request_irq() returns,
we will have a valid eq->dev field.

====================
sunvnet: bug fixes
This patch series has a coding-style fix and a bug fix.
The coding style fix (patch 1) is the extra indentation flagged by
Ben Hutchings:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=141529243409594&w=2
The bugfix (patch 2) is the following:
when vnet_event_napi() is called as part of napi_resume
(i.e., continuation of a previous NAPI read that was truncated
due to budget constraints), and then finds no more packets to read,
the code was trying to avoid an additional trip through ldc_rx
as an optimization. However, when this corner case happens, we would
need to reset a number of dring state bits such as rcv_nxt carefully,
which quickly becomes complex and hacky. The cleaner solution
is to just roll back to vnet_poll, re-enable interrupts and set up
dring state as was done in the pre-NAPI version of the driver.

sunvnet: Return from vnet_napi_event() if no packets to read
vnet_event_napi() may be called as part of the NAPI ->poll,
to resume reading descriptor rings. When no data is available,
descriptor ring state (e.g., rcv_nxt) needs to be reset
carefully to stay in lock-step with ldc_read(). In the interest
of simplicity, the best way to do this is to return from
vnet_event_napi() when there are no more packets to read.
The next trip through ldc_rx will correctly set up the dring state.

net: mv643xx_eth: reclaim TX skbs only when released by the HW
ATM, txq_reclaim will dequeue and free an skb for each tx desc released
by the hw that has TX_LAST_DESC set. However, in case of TSO, each
hw desc embedding the last part of a segment has TX_LAST_DESC set,
losing the one-to-one 'last skb frag'/'TX_LAST_DESC set' correspondance,
which causes data corruption.
Fix this by checking TX_ENABLE_INTERRUPT instead of TX_LAST_DESC, and
warn when trying to dequeue from an empty txq (which can be symptomatic
of releasing skbs prematurely).

xen-netback: remove unconditional __pskb_pull_tail() in guest Tx path
Unconditionally pulling 128 bytes into the linear area is not required
for:
- security: Every protocol demux starts with pskb_may_pull() to pull
frag data into the linear area, if necessary, before looking at
headers.
- performance: Netback has already grant copied up-to 128 bytes from
the first slot of a packet into the linear area. The first slot
normally contain all the IPv4/IPv6 and TCP/UDP headers.
The unconditional pull would often copy frag data unnecessarily. This
is a performance problem when running on a version of Xen where grant
unmap avoids TLB flushes for pages which are not accessed. TLB
flushes can now be avoided for > 99% of unmaps (it was 0% before).
Grant unmap TLB flush avoidance will be available in a future version
of Xen (probably 4.6).
