net: Eliminate NETIF_F_GEN_CSUM and NETIF_F_V[46]_CSUM

2015-12-15T21:50:20+00:00

These netif flags are unnecessary convolutions. It is more
straightforward to just use NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, NETIF_F_IP_CSUM,
and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM directly.

This patch also:
    - Cleans up can_checksum_protocol
    - Simplifies netdev_intersect_features

net: constify netif_is_* helpers net_device param

2015-12-05T23:16:27+00:00

As suggested by Eric, these helpers should have const dev param.

vlan: Add GRO support for non hardware accelerated vlan

2015-06-01T23:50:52+00:00

Currently packets with non-hardware-accelerated vlan cannot be handled
by GRO. This causes low performance for 802.1ad and stacked vlan, as their
vlan tags are currently not stripped by hardware.

This patch adds GRO support for non-hardware-accelerated vlan and
improves receive performance of them.

Test Environment:
 vlan device (.1Q) on vlan device (.1ad) on ixgbe (82599)

net: Move check for multiple vlans to drivers

2015-03-29T20:33:22+00:00

To allow drivers to handle the features check for multiple tags,
move the check to ndo_features_check().
As no drivers currently handle multiple tagged TSO, introduce
dflt_features_check() and call it if the driver does not have
ndo_features_check().

vlan: Introduce helper functions to check if skb is tagged

2015-03-29T20:33:22+00:00

Separate the two checks for single vlan and multiple vlans in
netif_skb_features().  This allows us to move the check for multiple
vlans to another function later.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/vxlan.c
	drivers/vhost/net.c
	include/linux/if_vlan.h
	net/core/dev.c

The net/core/dev.c conflict was the overlap of one commit marking an
existing function static whilst another was adding a new function.

In the include/linux/if_vlan.h case, the type used for a local
variable was changed in 'net', whereas the function got rewritten
to fix a stacked vlan bug in 'net-next'.

In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next'
overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'.

In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter
in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the
correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

net: Fix vlan_get_protocol for stacked vlan

2015-01-31T02:03:47+00:00

vlan_get_protocol() could not get network protocol if a skb has a 802.1ad
vlan tag or multiple vlans, which caused incorrect checksum calculation
in several drivers.

Fix vlan_get_protocol() to retrieve network protocol instead of incorrect
vlan protocol.

As the logic is the same as skb_network_protocol(), create a common helper
function __vlan_get_protocol() and call it from existing functions.
