fm10k: remove extraneous NULL check on l2_accel

2015-06-17T21:20:56Z

l2_accel was checked for NULL at the top of fm10k_dfwd_del_station, and we return if it is not defined. Due to this, we already know it can't be null here so a separate check is meaningless. Discovered via cppcheck. Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller Tested-by: Krishneil Singh Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher

fm10k: ignore invalid multicast address entries

2015-06-17T21:20:23Z

This change fixes an issue with adding an invalid multicast address using the iproute2 tool (ip maddr add dev ). The iproute2 tool and the kernel do not validate or filter the multicast addresses when adding them to the multicast list. Thus, when synchronizing this list with an invalid entry, the action will be aborted with an error since the fm10k driver currently validates the list. Consequently, multicast entries beyond the invalid one will not be processed and communicated with the switch via the mailbox. This change makes it so that invalid addresses will simply be skipped and allows synchronizing the full list to proceed.

fm10k: update xcast mode before synchronizing multicast addresses

2015-04-14T22:49:04Z

When the PF receives a request to update a multicast address for the VF, it checks the enabled multicast mode first. Fix a bug where the VF tried to set a multicast address before requesting the required xcast mode. This ensures the multicast addresses are honored as long as the xcast mode was allowed.

fm10k: Add netconsole support

2015-04-14T22:08:37Z

This change adds a function called "fm10k_netpoll" that's used to define "ndo_poll_controller" in "fm10k_netdev_ops". This is required to enable support for "netconsole" in fm10k.

fm10k: Corrected an error in Tx statistics

2015-04-14T21:42:27Z

The function collecting Tx statistics was actually using values from the RX ring. Thus, Tx and Rx statistics values reported by "ifconfig" will return identical values. This change corrects this error and the Tx statistics is now reading from the Tx ring. Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Acked-by: Matthew Vick Tested-by: Krishneil Singh

fm10k: Implement ndo_features_check

2015-03-03T09:07:22Z

The introduction of ndo_features_check allows drivers to report their offload capabilities per-skb. Implement this in fm10k to take advantage of this new functionality. Reported-by: Joe Stringer Signed-off-by: Matthew Vick Tested-by: Krishneil Singh Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher
