<title>r8169: use unlimited DMA burst for TX</title>

<content type='text'>
commit aee77e4accbeb2c86b1d294cd84fec4a12dde3bd upstream.

The r8169 driver currently limits the DMA burst for TX to 1024 bytes. I have
a box where this prevents the interface from using the gigabit line to its full
potential. This patch solves the problem by setting TX_DMA_BURST to unlimited.

The box has an ASRock B75M motherboard with on-board RTL8168evl/8111evl
(XID 0c900880). TSO is enabled.

I used netperf (TCP_STREAM test) to measure the dependency of TX throughput
on MTU. I did it for three different values of TX_DMA_BURST ('5'=512, '6'=1024,
'7'=unlimited). This chart shows the results:
http://michich.fedorapeople.org/r8169/r8169-effects-of-TX_DMA_BURST.png

Interesting points:
 - With the current DMA burst limit (1024):
   - at the default MTU=1500 I get only 842 Mbit/s.
   - when going from small MTU, the performance rises monotonically with
     increasing MTU only up to a peak at MTU=1076 (908 MBit/s). Then there's
     a sudden drop to 762 MBit/s from which the throughput rises monotonically
     again with further MTU increases.
 - With a smaller DMA burst limit (512):
   - there's a similar peak at MTU=1076 and another one at MTU=564.
 - With unlimited DMA burst:
   - at the default MTU=1500 I get nice 940 Mbit/s.
   - the throughput rises monotonically with increasing MTU with no strange
     peaks.

Notice that the peaks occur at MTU sizes that are multiples of the DMA burst
limit plus 52. Why 52? Because:
  20 (IP header) + 20 (TCP header) + 12 (TCP options) = 52

The Realtek-provided r8168 driver (v8.032.00) uses unlimited TX DMA burst too,
except for CFG_METHOD_1 where the TX DMA burst is set to 512 bytes.
CFG_METHOD_1 appears to be the oldest MAC version of "RTL8168B/8111B",
i.e. RTL_GIGA_MAC_VER_11 in r8169. Not sure if this MAC version really needs
the smaller burst limit, or if any other versions have similar requirements.

commit b00e69dee4ccbb3a19989e3d4f1385bc2e3406cd upstream.

This regression was spotted between Debian squeeze and Debian wheezy
kernels (respectively based on 2.6.32 and 3.2). More info about
Wake-on-LAN issues with Realtek's 816x chipsets can be found in the
following thread: http://marc.info/?t=132079219400004

Probable regression from d4ed95d796e5126bba51466dc07e287cebc8bd19;
more chipsets are likely affected.

Tested on top of a 3.2.23 kernel.

[ Upstream commit 39707c2a3ba5011038b363f84d37c8a98d2d9db1 ]

Driver anchors the tx urbs and defers the urb submission if
a transmit request comes when the interface is suspended.
Anchoring urb increments the urb reference count. These
deferred urbs are later accessed by calling usb_get_from_anchor()
for submission during interface resume. usb_get_from_anchor()
unanchors the urb but urb reference count remains same.
This causes the urb reference count to remain non-zero
after usb_free_urb() gets called and urb never gets freed.
Hence call usb_put_urb() after anchoring the urb to properly
balance the reference count for these deferred urbs. Also,
unanchor these deferred urbs during disconnect, to free them
up.
