With debug enabled we get the following message: smsc911x smsc911x (unregistered net_device): couldn't get clock -2 As the device has not been registered at this point, it is better to use dev_dbg() instead of netdev_dbg(). CC: Sergei Shtylyov <sergei.shtylyov@cogentembedded.com> Suggested-by:

Currently, if a VF's Rx Mode will be configured to support promiscuous mode the PF will comply, causing the VF to actually become promiscuous. This will enable the VF to see all unicast traffic which might be intended for other VMs, which we believe should not be possible. This patch will cause the hypervisor to ignore the VF's request for changes in its Rx mode (other than disabling it), preventing it from becoming promiscuous. Reported-by:

VFs are currently showing port statistics, although they can't really access those - thus all such statistics will always show a value of 0. This patch removes said statistics from the VF's view as to not confuse the user. Signed-off-by:

Since we now posses a workqueue dedicated for sriov, the paradigm that sriov- related tasks cannot sleep is no longer correct. The VFOP mechanism was the one previously supporting said paradigm - the sriov related tasks were broken into segments which did not require sleep, and the mechanism re-scheduled the next segment whenever possible. This patch remvoes the VFOP mechanism altogether - the resulting code is a much easier to follow code; The segments are gathered into straight-forward functions which sleep whenever neccessary.

Yuval Mintz authored
The bnx2x sriov mechanisms were done in the bnx2x slowpath workitem which runs on the bnx2x's workqueue; This workitem is also responsible for the bottom half of interrupt handling in the driver, and specifically it also receives FW notifications of ramrod completions, allowing other flows to progress. The original design of the sriov reltaed-flows was based on the notion such flows must not sleep, since their context is the slowpath workitem. Otherwise, we might reach timeouts - those flows may wait for ramrod completion that will never arrive as the workitem wlll not be re-scheduled until that same flow will be over. In more recent time bnx2x started supporting features in which the VF interface can be configured by the tools accessing the PF on the hypervisor. This support created possible races on the VF-PF lock (which is taken either when the PF is handling a VF message or when the PF is doing some slowpath work on behalf of the VF) which may cause timeouts on the VF side and lags on the PF side. This patch changes the scheme - it creates a new workqueue for sriov related tasks and moves all handling currently done in the slowpath task into the the new workqueue. Signed-off-by:

Matan Barak authored
The code which is dealing with SRIOV alias GUIDs in the mlx4 IB driver has some logic which operated according to the maximal possible active functions (PF + VFs). After the single port VFs code integration this resulted in a flow of false-positive warnings going to the kernel log after the PF driver started the alias GUID work. Fix it by referring to the actual number of functions. Signed-off-by:

This reverts commit e9275f5e . This commit is the last in the netback grant mapping series, and it tries to do more aggressive aggreagtion of unmap operations. However practical use showed almost no positive effect, whilst with certain frontends it causes significant performance regression. Signed-off-by:

Replace dev_kfree_skb with dev_consume_skb_any in spider_net_release_tx_chain which can be called in hard irq and other contexts. dev_consume_skb_any was choosen as it preserves the current dev_kfree_skb semantics (dev_kfree_skb is consume_skb) and is because it is correct most of the time as most packets will have been successfully transmitted not dropeed.
