Greg Rose 088245a358 ixgbevf: Fix statistics corruption
When the physical function (PF) is reset for any reason the statistics
collection in ixgbevf_update_stats needs to wait to update until after
the reset synchronization ensures that the PF driver is up and running
and is finished with its own reset.  Go ahead and clear the link flag to
indicate this when the control message from the PF is received.  The
reset synchronization and recovery in the watchdog task will eventually
set the link flag up when the PF has resumed.

Alexander Duyck ec718254cb ixgbe: Improve performance and reduce size of ixgbe_tx_map
This change is meant to both improve the performance and reduce the size of
ixgbe_tx_map.  To do this I have expanded the work done in the main loop by
pushing first into tx_buffer.  This allows us to pull in the dma_mapping_error
check, the tx_buffer value assignment, and the initial DMA value assignment to
the Tx descriptor.  The net result is that the function reduces in size by a
little over a 100 bytes and is about 1% or 2% faster.

Alexander Duyck 472148c320 ixgbe: Update ixgbe Tx flags to improve code efficiency
This change is meant to improve the efficiency of the Tx flags in ixgbe by
aligning them with the values that will later be written into either the
cmd_type or olinfo.  By doing this we are able to reduce most of these
functions to either just a simple shift followed by an or in the case of
cmd_type, or an and followed by an or in the case of olinfo.

To do this I also needed to change the logic and/or drop some flags.  I
dropped the IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_FSO and it was replaced by IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO since
the only place it was ever checked was in conjunction with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TSO.
I replaced IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_TXSW with IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_CC, this way we have a
clear point for what the flag is meant to do.  Finally the
IXGBE_TX_FLAGS_NO_IFCS was dropped since were are already carrying the data
for that flag in the skb.  Instead we can just check the bitflag in the skb.

In order to avoid type conversion errors I also adjusted the locations
where we were switching between CPU and little endian.

These are copying data into 16 char arrays.  They all specify that the
first string can't be more than 11 characters but once you add on the
"-rx-" and the NUL character there isn't space for the %d.

The first string is probably never going to be 11 characters, but if it
is then let's truncate the string instead of corrupting memory.

Mugunthan V N fae50823d0 net: ethernet: davinci_cpdma: Add boundary for rx and tx descriptors
When there is heavy transmission traffic in the CPDMA, then Rx descriptors
memory is also utilized as tx desc memory looses all rx descriptors and the
driver stops working then.

This patch adds boundary for tx and rx descriptors in bd ram dividing the
descriptor memory to ensure that during heavy transmission tx doesn't use
rx descriptors.

This patch is already applied to davinci_emac driver, since CPSW and
davici_dmac shares the same CPDMA, moving the boundry seperation from
Davinci EMAC driver to CPDMA driver which was done in the following

    net/davinci: do not use all descriptors for tx packets

    The driver uses a shared pool for both rx and tx descriptors.
    During open it queues fixed number of 128 descriptors for receive
    packets. For each received packet it tries to queue another
    descriptor. If this fails the descriptor is lost for rx.
    The driver has no limitation on tx descriptors to use, so it
    can happen during a nmap / ping -f attack that the driver
    allocates all descriptors for tx and looses all rx descriptors.
    The driver stops working then.
    To fix this limit the number of tx descriptors used to half of
    the descriptors available, the rx path uses the other half.

    Tested on a custom board using nmap / ping -f to the board from
    two different hosts.
