* ldmvsw: better use of link up and down on ldom vswitchShannon Nelson2017-03-171-4/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When an ldom VM is bound, the network vswitch infrastructure is set up for it, but was being forced 'UP' by the userland switch configuration script. When 'UP' but not actually connected to a running VM, the ipv6 neighbor probes fail (not a horrible thing) and start cluttering up the kernel logs. Funny thing: these are debug messages that never actually show up, but we do see the net_ratelimited messages that say N callbacks were suppressed. This patch defers the netif_carrier_on() until an actual link has been established with the VM, as indicated by receiving an LDC_EVENT_UP from the underlying LDC protocol. Similarly, we take the link down when we see the LDC_EVENT_RESET. Now when we see the ndo_open(), we reset the link to get things talking again.

* ldmvsw: disable tso and gso for bridge operationsShannon Nelson2017-02-141-3/+2Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ldmvsw driver is specifically for supporting the ldom virtual networking by running in the primary ldom and using the LDC to connect the remaining ldoms to the outside world via a bridge. With TSO and GSO supported while connected the bridge, things tend to misbehave as seen in our case by delayed packets, enough to begin triggering retransmits and affecting overall throughput. By turning off advertised support for TSO and GSO we restore stable traffic flow through the bridge. Orabug: 23293104 Signed-off-by: Shannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel source files need not include <linux/kconfig.h> explicitly because the top Makefile forces to include it with: -include $(srctree)/include/linux/kconfig.h This commit removes explicit includes except the following: * arch/s390/include/asm/facilities_src.h * tools/testing/radix-tree/linux/kernel.h These two are used for host programs.

* ldmvsw: Add ldmvsw.c driver codeAaron Young2016-03-191-0/+468
Add ldmvsw.c driver Details: The ldmvsw driver very closely follows the sunvnet.c code and makes use of the sunvnet_common.c code for core functionality. A significant difference between sunvnet and ldmvsw driver is sunvnet creates a network interface for each vnet-port *parent* node in the MD while the ldmvsw driver creates a network interface for every vsw-port node in the Machine Description (MD). Therefore the netdev_priv() for sunvnet is a vnet structure while the netdev_priv() for ldmvsw is a vnet_port structure. Vnet_port structures allocated by ldmvsw have the vsw bit set. When finding the net_device associated with a port, the common code keys off this bit to use either the net_device found in the vnet_port or the net_device in the vnet structure (see the VNET_PORT_TO_NET_DEVICE() macro in sunvnet_common.h). This scheme allows the common code to work with both drivers with minimal changes. Similar to Xen, network interfaces created by the ldmvsw driver will always have a HW Addr (i.e. mac address) of FE:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF and each will be assigned the devname "vif<cfg_handle>.<port_id>" - where <cfg_handle> and <port_id> are a unique handle/port pair assigned to the associated vsw-port node in the MD.
