2012-10-02hyperv: Report actual status in receive completion packetHaiyang Zhang
The existing code always reports NVSP_STAT_SUCCESS. This patch adds the mechanism to report failure when it happens. Signed-off-by: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-08-14net: move and rename netif_notify_peers()Amerigo Wang
I believe net/core/dev.c is a better place for netif_notify_peers(), because other net event notify functions also stay in this file. And rename it to netdev_notify_peers(). Cc: David S.

2012-07-17hyperv: Add support for setting MAC from within guestsHaiyang Zhang
This adds support for setting synthetic NIC MAC address from within Linux guests. Before using this feature, the option "spoofing of MAC address" should be enabled at the Hyper-V manager / Settings of the synthetic NIC. Thanks to Kin Cho <kcho@infoblox.com> for the initial implementation and tests. And, thanks to Long Li <longli@microsoft.com> for the debugging works.

Fix merge between commit 3adadc08cc1e ("net ax25: Reorder ax25_exit to remove races") and commit 0ca7a4c87d27 ("net ax25: Simplify and cleanup the ax25 sysctl handling") The former moved around the sysctl register/unregister calls, the later simply removed them.

2012-04-21net/hyperv: Adding cancellation to ensure rndis filter is closedWenqi Ma
Although the network interface is down, the RX packets number which could be observed by ifconfig may keep on increasing. This is because the WORK scheduled in netvsc_set_multicast_list() may be executed after netvsc_close(). That means the rndis filter may be re-enabled by do_set_multicast() even if it was closed by netvsc_close(). By canceling possible WORK before close the rndis filter, the issue could be never happened.

2012-04-03net/hyperv: Add flow control based on hi/low watermarkHaiyang Zhang
In the existing code, we only stop queue when the ringbuffer is full, so the current packet has to be dropped or retried from upper layer. This patch stops the tx queue when available ringbuffer is below the low watermark. So the ringbuffer still has small amount of space available for the current packet. This will reduce the overhead of retries on sending. Signed-off-by: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-03-19net/hyperv: Fix the code handling tx busyHaiyang Zhang
Instead of dropping the packet, we keep the skb buffer, and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY to let upper layer retry send. This will not cause endless loop, because the host is taking data away from ring buffer, and we have called the stop_queue before returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY. The stop_queue was called in the function netvsc_send() in file netvsc.c, then it returns to rndis_filter_send(), which returns to netvsc_start_xmit() in file netvsc_drv.c. So the NETDEV_TX_BUSY is indeed returned AFTER queue is stopped. Signed-off-by: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz@microsoft.com> Reviewed-by: K. Y.

2012-03-16net/hyperv: fix erroneous NETDEV_TX_BUSY useEric Dumazet
A driver start_xmit() method cannot free skb and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY, since caller is going to reuse freed skb. This is mostly a revert of commit bf769375c (staging: hv: fix the return status of netvsc_start_xmit()) In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY or you can trigger a ksoftirqd fatal loop. In case of memory allocation error, only safe way is to drop the packet and return NETDEV_TX_OK Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Cc: "K. Y.

2011-12-10net/hyperv: Fix the stop/wake queue mechanismHaiyang Zhang
The ring buffer is only used to pass meta data for outbound packets. The actual payload is accessed by DMA from the host. So the stop/wake queue mechanism based on counting and comparing number of pages sent v.s. number of pages in the ring buffer is wrong. Also, there is a race condition in the stop/wake queue calls, which can stop xmit queue forever. The new stop/wake queue mechanism is based on the actual bytes used by outbound packets in the ring buffer. The check for number of outstanding sends after stop queue prevents the race condition that can cause wake queue happening earlier than stop queue.
