* ethtool: allow ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO for usersMichał Mirosław2012-07-121-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | [ Upstream commit f80400a26a2e8bff541de12834a1134358bb6642 ] Allow ETHTOOL_GSSET_INFO ethtool ioctl() for unprivileged users. ETHTOOL_GSTRINGS is already allowed, but is unusable without this one.

* ethtool: Null-terminate filename passed to ethtool_ops::flash_deviceBen Hutchings2012-05-311-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | commit 786f528119722f564a22ad953411374e06116333 upstream. The parameters for ETHTOOL_FLASHDEV include a filename, which ought to be null-terminated. Currently the only driver that implements ethtool_ops::flash_device attempts to add a null terminator if necessary, but does it wrongly. Do it in the ethtool core instead.

* net: consolidate and fix ethtool_ops->get_settings callingJiri Pirko2011-09-151-5/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch does several things: - introduces __ethtool_get_settings which is called from ethtool code and from drivers as well. Put ASSERT_RTNL there. - dev_ethtool_get_settings() is replaced by __ethtool_get_settings() - changes calling in drivers so rtnl locking is respected. In iboe_get_rate was previously ->get_settings() called unlocked. This fixes it. Also prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo() in af_packet.c had the same problem. Also fixed by calling __dev_get_by_index() instead of dev_get_by_index() and holding rtnl_lock for both calls. - introduces rtnl_lock in bnx2fc_vport_create() and fcoe_vport_create() so bnx2fc_if_create() and fcoe_if_create() are called locked as they are from other places. - use __ethtool_get_settings() in bonding code Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> v2->v3: -removed dev_ethtool_get_settings() -added ASSERT_RTNL into __ethtool_get_settings() -prb_calc_retire_blk_tmo - use __dev_get_by_index() and lock around it and __ethtool_get_settings() call v1->v2: add missing export_symbol Reviewed-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> [except FCoE bits] Acked-by: Ralf Baechle <ralf@linux-mips.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ethtool: Allow zero-length register dumps againBen Hutchings2011-07-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some drivers (ab)use the ethtool_ops::get_regs operation to expose only a hardware revision ID. Commit a77f5db361ed9953b5b749353ea2c7fed2bf8d93 ('ethtool: Allocate register dump buffer with vmalloc()') had the side-effect of breaking these, as vmalloc() returns a null pointer for size=0 whereas kmalloc() did not. For backward-compatibility, allow zero-length dumps again.

* v2 ethtool: remove support for ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLEAlexander Duyck2011-06-081-308/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change is meant to remove all support for displaying an ntuple as strings via ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE. The reason for this change is due to the fact that multiple issues have been found including: - Multiple buffer overruns for strings being displayed. - Incorrect filters displayed, cleared filters with ring of -2 are displayed - Setting get_rx_ntuple displays no rules if defined. - Endianess wrong on displayed values. - Hard limit of 1024 filters makes display functionality extremely limited The only driver that had supported this interface was ixgbe. Since it no longer uses the interface and due to the issues mentioned above I am submitting this patch to remove it. v2: Updated based on comments from Ben Hutchings - Left ETH_SS_NTUPLE_FILTERS in code but commented on it being deprecated - Removed ethtool_rx_ntuple_list and ethtool_rx_ntuple_flow_spec_container - Left ETHTOOL_GRXNTUPLE but commented it as deprecated Also cleaned up set_rx_ntuple since there is no flow spec container to maintain we can drop all the code for the alloc and free of it and just return ops->set_rx_ntuple().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables ethtool to set the loopback mode on a given interface.

Some drivers may want to set a custom duration for the on/off intervals. This patch changes the API so the return code from the driver's entry point when it is called with ETHTOOL_ID_ACTIVE can specify the frequency at which to cycle the on/off states, and updates the drivers that have already been converted to use the new set_phys_id and use the synchronous method for identifying an adapter. The physical identification frequency set in the updated drivers is based on how it was done prior to the introduction of set_phys_id. Compile tested only.

| * | ethtool: Change ETHTOOL_PHYS_ID implementation to allow dropping RTNLBen Hutchings2011-04-051-2/+53
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ethtool ETHTOOL_PHYS_ID command runs for an arbitrarily long period of time, holding the RTNL lock. This blocks routing updates, device enumeration, and various important operations that one might want to keep running while hunting for the flashing LED. We need to drop the RTNL lock during this operation, but currently the core implementation is a thin wrapper around a driver operation and drivers may well depend upon holding the lock. Define a new driver operation 'set_phys_id' with an argument that sets the ID indicator on/off/inactive/active (the last optional, for any driver or firmware that prefers to handle blinking asynchronously). When this is defined, the ethtool core drops the lock while waiting and only acquires it around calls to this operation. Deprecate the 'phys_id' operation in favour of this. It can be removed once all in-tree drivers are converted. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com>
* | net: Allow no-cache copy from user on transmitTom Herbert2011-04-041-1/+1

This functionality is configurable per device using ethtool. Presumably, this feature would only be useful when the driver does not touch the data. The feature is turned on by default if a device indicates that it does some form of checksum offload; it is off by default for devices that do no checksum offload or indicate no checksum is necessary. For the former case copy-checksum is probably done anyway, in the latter case the device is likely loopback in which case the no cache copy is probably not beneficial. This patch was tested using 200 instances of netperf TCP_RR with 1400 byte request and one byte reply. Platform is 16 core AMD x86. No-cache copy disabled: 672703 tps, 97.13% utilization 50/90/99% latency:244.31 484.205 1028.41 No-cache copy enabled: 702113 tps, 96.16% utilization, 50/90/99% latency 238.56 467.56 956.955 Using 14000 byte request and response sizes demonstrate the effects more dramatically: No-cache copy disabled: 79571 tps, 34.34 %utlization 50/90/95% latency 1584.46 2319.59 5001.76 No-cache copy enabled: 83856 tps, 34.81% utilization 50/90/95% latency 2508.42 2622.62 2735.88 Note especially the effect on latency tail (95th percentile). This seems to provide a nice performance improvement and is consistent in the tests I ran. Presumably, this would provide the greatest benfits in the presence of an application workload stressing the cache and a lot of transmit data happening.

| * net: clear heap allocations for privileged ethtool actionsKees Cook2010-10-111-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Several other ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by drivers. Some interfaces appear safe (eeprom, etc), in that the sizes are well controlled. In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions), the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace. Note that these are less of an issue since these all require CAP_NET_ADMIN.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Calling ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL with a large rule_cnt will allocate kernel heap without clearing it. For the one driver (niu) that implements it, it will leave the unused portion of heap unchanged and copy the full contents back to userspace.

* | ethtool, ixgbe: Move RX n-tuple mask fixup to ethtoolBen Hutchings2010-09-171-0/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ethtool utility does not set masks for flow parameters that are not specified, so if both value and mask are 0 then this must be treated as equivalent to a mask with all bits set. Currently that is done in the only driver that implements RX n-tuple filtering, ixgbe. Move it to the ethtool core. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | struct ethtool_rawip4_spec and struct ethtool_ether_spec are neither commented nor used by any driver, so remove them. Adjust padding in the user-visible unions that included these structures. Fix references to struct ethtool_rawip4_spec in ethtool_get_rx_ntuple(), which should use struct ethtool_usrip4_spec. struct ethtool_usrip4_spec cannot hold IPv6 host addresses and there is no separate structure that can, so remove ETH_RX_NFC_IP6 and the reference to it in niu.

* | ethtool: allow non-netadmin to query settingsstephen hemminger2010-08-231-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SNMP daemon uses ethtool to determine the speed of network interfaces. This fails on Debian (and probably elsewhere) because for security SNMP daemon runs as non-root user (snmp). Note: A similar patch was rejected previously because of a concern about the possibility that on some hardware querying the ethtool settings requires access to the PHY and could slow the machine down. But the security risk of requiring SNMP daemon (and related services) to run as root far out weighs the risk of denial-of-service.

* | ethtool: Provide a default implementation of ethtool_ops::get_drvinfoBen Hutchings2010-08-171-10/+23
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The driver name and bus address for a net_device can normally be found through the driver model now. Instead of requiring drivers to provide this information redundantly through the ethtool_ops::get_drvinfo operation, use the driver model to do so if the driver does not define the operation. Since ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO no longer requires the driver to implement any operations, do not require net_device::ethtool_ops to be set either. Remove implementations of get_drvinfo and ethtool_ops that provide only this information. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <bhutchings@solarflare.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
