2015-07-08vmxnet3: prevent receive getting out of sequence on napi pollNeil Horman
vmxnet3's current napi path is built to count every rx descriptor we recieve, and use that as a count of the napi budget. That means its possible to return from a napi poll halfway through recieving a fragmented packet accross multiple dma descriptors. If that happens, the next napi poll will start with the descriptor ring in an improper state (e.g. the first descriptor we look at may have the end-of-packet bit set), which will cause a BUG halt in the driver. Fix the issue by only counting whole received packets in the napi poll and returning that value, rather than the descriptor count.

Since commit d25f06ea466e "vmxnet3: fix netpoll race condition", the vmxnet3 driver fails to build when CONFIG_PCI_MSI is disabled, because it unconditionally references the vmxnet3_msix_rx() function.

2014-03-11vmxnet3: fix netpoll race conditionNeil Horman
vmxnet3's netpoll driver is incorrectly coded. It directly calls vmxnet3_do_poll, which is the driver internal napi poll routine. As the netpoll controller method doesn't block real napi polls in any way, there is a potential for race conditions in which the netpoll controller method and the napi poll method run concurrently. The result is data corruption causing panics such as this one recently observed: PID: 1371 TASK: ffff88023762caa0 CPU: 1 COMMAND: "rs:main Q:Reg" #0 [ffff88023abd5780] machine_kexec at ffffffff81038f3b #1 [ffff88023abd57e0] crash_kexec at ffffffff810c5d92 #2 [ffff88023abd58b0] oops_end at ffffffff8152b570 #3 [ffff88023abd58e0] die at ffffffff81010e0b #4 [ffff88023abd5910] do_trap at ffffffff8152add4 #5 [ffff88023abd5970] do_invalid_op at ffffffff8100cf95 #6 [ffff88023abd5a10] invalid_op at ffffffff8100bf9b [exception RIP: vmxnet3_rq_rx_complete+1968] RIP: ffffffffa00f1e80 RSP: ffff88023abd5ac8 RFLAGS: 00010086 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: ffff88023b5dcee0 RCX: 00000000000000c0 RDX: 0000000000000000 RSI: 00000000000005f2 RDI: ffff88023b5dcee0 RBP: ffff88023abd5b48 R8: 0000000000000000 R9: ffff88023a3b6048 R10: 0000000000000000 R11: 0000000000000002 R12: ffff8802398d4cd8 R13: ffff88023af35140 R14: ffff88023b60c890 R15: 0000000000000000 ORIG_RAX: ffffffffffffffff CS: 0010 SS: 0018 #7 [ffff88023abd5b50] vmxnet3_do_poll at ffffffffa00f204a [vmxnet3] #8 [ffff88023abd5b80] vmxnet3_netpoll at ffffffffa00f209c [vmxnet3] #9 [ffff88023abd5ba0] netpoll_poll_dev at ffffffff81472bb7 The fix is to do as other drivers do, and have the poll controller call the top half interrupt handler, which schedules a napi poll properly to recieve frames Tested by myself, successfully.
