xen-netfront: reduce gso_max_size to account for max TCP header

2013-04-22T19:37:01Z

The maximum packet including header that can be handled by netfront / netback wire format is 65535. Reduce gso_max_size accordingly. Drop skb and print warning when skb->len > 65535. This can 1) save the effort to send malformed packet to netback, 2) help spotting misconfiguration of netfront in the future. Signed-off-by: Wei Liu Acked-by: Ian Campbell Signed-off-by: David S.

xen-netfront: frags -> slots in xennet_get_responses

2013-03-25T16:19:26Z

This function is in fact counting the ring slots required for responses. Separate the concepts of ring slots and skb frags make the code clearer, as now netfront and netback can have different MAX_SKB_FRAGS, slot and frag are not mapped 1:1 any more.

xen-netfront: remove unused variable `extra'

2013-03-25T16:18:58Z

This variable is supposed to hold reference to the last extra_info in the loop. However there is only type of extra info here and the loop to process extra info is missing, so this variable is never used and causes confusion. Remove it at the moment. We can add it back when necessary. Signed-off-by: Wei Liu Reviewed-by: David Vrabel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

xen/netfront: improve truesize tracking

2013-01-08T03:51:19Z

Using RX_COPY_THRESHOLD is incorrect if the SKB is actually smaller than that. We have already accounted for this in NETFRONT_SKB_CB(skb)->pull_to so use that instead. Fixes WARN_ON from skb_try_coalesce.

drivers/net: fix up function prototypes after __dev* removals

2012-12-07T19:22:22Z

The __dev* removal patches for the network drivers ended up messing up the function prototypes for a bunch of drivers. This patch fixes all of them back up to be properly aligned. Bonus is that this almost removes 100 lines of code, always a nice surprise. Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

xen-netfront: remove __dev* attributes

2012-12-03T19:17:06Z

CONFIG_HOTPLUG is going away as an option. As result the __dev* markings will be going away. Remove use of __devinit, __devexit_p, __devinitdata, __devinitconst, and __devexit.

xen/netfront: handle compound page fragments on transmit

2012-11-21T16:50:31Z

An SKB paged fragment can consist of a compound page with order > 0. However the netchannel protocol deals only in PAGE_SIZE frames. Handle this in xennet_make_frags by iterating over the frames which make up the page. This is the netfront equivalent to 6a8ed462f16b for netback.

Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-arm-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen

Pull ADM Xen support from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: Features: * Allow a Linux guest to boot as initial domain and as normal guests on Xen on ARM (specifically ARMv7 with virtualized extensions). PV console, block and network frontend/backends are working. Bug-fixes: * Fix compile linux-next fallout. * Fix PVHVM bootup crashing. The Xen-unstable hypervisor (so will be 4.3 in a ~6 months), supports ARMv7 platforms. The goal in implementing this architecture is to exploit the hardware as much as possible. That means use as little as possible of PV operations (so no PV MMU) - and use existing PV drivers for I/Os (network, block, console, etc). This is similar to how PVHVM guests operate in X86 platform nowadays - except that on ARM there is no need for QEMU. The end result is that we share a lot of the generic Xen drivers and infrastructure. Details on how to compile/boot/etc are available at this Wiki: http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Xen_ARMv7_with_Virtualization_Extensions and this blog has links to a technical discussion/presentations on the overall architecture: http://blog.xen.org/index.php/2012/09/21/xensummit-sessions-new-pvh-virtualisation-mode-for-arm-cortex-a15arm-servers-and-x86/ * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.7-arm-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: (21 commits) xen/xen_initial_domain: check that xen_start_info is initialized xen: mark xen_init_IRQ __init xen/Makefile: fix dom-y build arm: introduce a DTS for Xen unprivileged virtual machines MAINTAINERS: add myself as Xen ARM maintainer xen/arm: compile netback xen/arm: compile blkfront and blkback xen/arm: implement alloc/free_xenballooned_pages with alloc_pages/kfree xen/arm: receive Xen events on ARM xen/arm: initialize grant_table on ARM xen/arm: get privilege status xen/arm: introduce CONFIG_XEN on ARM xen: do not compile manage, balloon, pci, acpi, pcpu and cpu_hotplug on ARM xen/arm: Introduce xen_ulong_t for unsigned long xen/arm: Xen detection and shared_info page mapping docs: Xen ARM DT bindings xen/arm: empty implementation of grant_table arch specific functions xen/arm: sync_bitops xen/arm: page.h definitions xen/arm: hypercalls ...
