Subject[PATCH v2 net-next 0/5] sunvnet: better connection management
Message-ID<tkYAp-3tR-7@gated-at.bofh.it>
These patches remove some problems in handling of carrier state
with the ldmvsw vswitch, remove  an xoff misuse in sunvnet, and
add stats for debug and tracking of point-to-point connections
between the ldom VMs.

v2:
 - added ldmvsw ndo_open to reset the LDC channel
 - updated copyrights

Shannon Nelson (5):
  ldmvsw: better use of link up and down on ldom vswitch
  sunvnet: add stats to track ldom to ldom packets and bytes
  sunvnet: track port queues correctly
  sunvnet: count multicast packets
  sunvnet: xoff not needed when removing port link

In reply to#1600751
Track our used and unused queue indexies correctly.  Otherwise, as ports
dropped out and returned, they all eventually ended up with the same
queue index.

#1600753 — [PATCH v2 net-next 5/5] sunvnet: xoff not needed when removing port link

FromShannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@oracle.com>
Date2017-03-14 18:40 +0100
Subject[PATCH v2 net-next 5/5] sunvnet: xoff not needed when removing port link
Message-ID<tkYAq-3tR-45@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1600751
The sunvnet netdev is connected to the controlling ldom's vswitch
for network bridging.  However, for higher performance between ldoms,
there also is a channel between each client ldom.  These connections are
represented in the sunvnet driver by a queue for each ldom.  The driver
uses select_queue to tell the stack which queue to use by tracking the mac
addresses on the other end of each port.  When a connected ldom shuts down,
the driver receives an LDC_EVENT_RESET and the port is removed from the
driver, thus a queue with no ldom on the other end will never be selected
for Tx.

The driver was trying to reinforce the "don't use this queue" notion with
netif_tx_stop_queue() and netif_tx_wake_queue(), which really should only
be used to signal a Tx queue is full (aka XOFF).  This misuse of queue
state resulted in NETDEV WATCHDOG messages and lots of unnecessary calls
into the driver's tx_timeout handler.  Simply removing these takes care
of the problem.

#1600761 — [PATCH v2 net-next 1/5] ldmvsw: better use of link up and down on ldom vswitch

FromShannon Nelson <shannon.nelson@oracle.com>
Date2017-03-14 18:40 +0100
Subject[PATCH v2 net-next 1/5] ldmvsw: better use of link up and down on ldom vswitch
Message-ID<tkYAr-3tR-67@gated-at.bofh.it>
In reply to#1600751
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.
