Noting that this error occured on a serdes based device, we noted that there were a few ethtool operations (most notably self_test and set_phys_id) that have execution paths that lead into bnx2_setup_serdes_phy. This function is notable because it executes a mod_timer call, which starts the bp->timer running. Currently bnx2 is setup to assume that this timer only nees to be stopped when bnx2_close or bnx2_suspend is called. Since the above ethtool operations are not gated on the net device having been opened however, that assumption is incorrect, and can lead to the timer still running after the module has been removed, leading to the oops above (as well as other simmilar oopses). Fix the problem by ensuring that the timer is stopped when pci_device_unregister is called.

2010-12-31bnx2: Free IRQ before freeing status block memoryMichael Chan
When changing ring size, we free all memory including status block memory. If we're in INTA mode and sharing IRQ, the IRQ handler can be called and it will reference the NULL status block pointer. Because of the lockless design of the IRQ handler, there is no simple way to synchronize and prevent this. So we avoid this problem by freeing the IRQ handler before freeing the status block memory.

flush_scheduled_work() is on its way out. This patch contains simple conversions to replace flush_scheduled_work() usage with direct cancels and flushes. Directly cancel the used works on driver detach and flush them in other cases. The conversions are mostly straight forward and the only dangers are, * Forgetting to cancel/flush one or more used works. * Cancelling when a work should be flushed (ie. the work must be executed once scheduled whether the driver is detaching or not). I've gone over the changes multiple times but it would be much appreciated if you can review with the above points in mind. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Cc: "David S.

2010-07-19bnx2: Remove some unnecessary smp_mb() in tx fast path.Michael Chan
smp_mb() inside bnx2_tx_avail() is used twice in the normal bnx2_start_xmit() path (see illustration below). The full memory barrier is only necessary during race conditions with tx completion. We can speed up the tx path by replacing smp_mb() in bnx2_tx_avail() with a compiler barrier. The compiler barrier is to force the compiler to fetch the tx_prod and tx_cons from memory. In the race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int(), we have the following situation: bnx2_start_xmit() bnx2_tx_int() if (!bnx2_tx_avail()) BUG(); ... if (!bnx2_tx_avail()) netif_tx_stop_queue(); update_tx_index(); smp_mb(); smp_mb(); if (bnx2_tx_avail()) if (netif_tx_queue_stopped() && netif_tx_wake_queue(); bnx2_tx_avail()) With smp_mb() removed from bnx2_tx_avail(), we need to add smp_mb() to bnx2_start_xmit() as shown above to properly order netif_tx_stop_queue() and bnx2_tx_avail() to check the ring index. If it is not strictly ordered, the tx queue can be stopped forever. This improves performance by about 5% with 2 ports running bi-directional 64-byte packets.

2010-06-17bnx2: fix dma_get_ops compilation breakageFUJITA Tomonori
This removes dma_get_ops() prefetch optimization in bnx2. bnx2 uses dma_get_ops() to see if dma_sync_single_for_cpu() is noop. bnx2 does prefetch if it's noop. But dma_get_ops() isn't available on all the architectures (only the architectures that uses dma_map_ops struct have it). Using dma_get_ops() in drivers leads to compilation breakage on many architectures. This patch removes dma_get_ops() and changes bnx2 to do prefetch on all the architectures. This adds useless prefetch on non-coherent architectures but this is harmless. It is also unlikely to cause the performance drop.

This causes free_netdev() to hang during rmmod. We fix this by calling netif_napi_del() during ->close(). Also, bnx2_init_napi() must not be in the __devinit section since it is called by ->open().

Based on original patch from Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@redhat.com>. Using netif_carrier_off() is better than updating all the ->trans_start on all the tx queues. netif_carrier_off() needs to be called after bnx2_disable_int_sync() to guarantee no race conditions with the serdes timers that can modify the carrier state. If the chip or phy is reset, carrier will turn back on when we get the link interrupt. If there is no reset, we need to turn carrier back on in bnx2_netif_start().

The rx descriptor is in skb->data which is mapped for streaming mode DMA. Eric Dumazet pointed out that we should not prefetch the data before dma_sync. So we prefetch only if dma_sync is no_op on the system. Signed-off-by: Michael Chan <mchan@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-04-27bnx2: Prevent "scheduling while atomic" warning with cnic, bonding and vlan.Michael Chan
The bonding driver calls ndo_vlan_rx_register() while holding bond->lock. The bnx2 driver calls bnx2_netif_stop() to stop the rx handling while changing the vlgrp. The call also stops the cnic driver which sleeps while the bond->lock is held and cause the warning. This code path only needs to stop the NAPI rx handling while we are changing the vlgrp. Since no reset is going to occur, there is no need to stop cnic in this case. By adding a parameter to bnx2_netif_stop() to skip stopping cnic, we can avoid the warning.
