Back before e1000-7.3.20, the e1000 driver had a simple algorithm that
managed interrupt moderation. The driver was updated in 7.3.20 to
have the new "adaptive" interrupt moderation but we have customer
requests to redeploy the old way as an option. This patch adds the
old functionality back. The new functionality can be enabled via
module parameter or at runtime via ethtool.
Module parameter: (InterruptThrottleRate=4) to use this new
moderation method.
Ethtool method: ethtool -C ethX rx-usecs 4

This patch is an alternative to similar patch provided by Joe Perches.
Substitute DPRINTK macro for e_<level> that uses netdev_<level> and dev_<level>
similar to e1000e.
- Convert printk to pr_<level> where applicable.
- Use common #define pr_fmt for the driver.
- Use dev_<level> for displaying text in parts of the driver where the interface
name is not assigned (like e1000_param.c).
- Better align test with the new macros.

Previously the driver tweaked txqueuelen to avoid false Tx hang reports
seen at half duplex. This had the effect of overriding user set values
on link change/reset. Testing shows that adjusting only the timeout
factor is sufficient to prevent Tx hang reports at half duplex.
This patch removes all instances of tx_queue_len in the driver.

When testing the "e1000: enhance frame fragment detection" (and e1000e)
patches we found some bugs with reducing the MTU size. The 1024 byte
descriptor used with the 1000 mtu test also (re) introduced the
(originally) reported bug, and causes us to need the e1000_clean_tx_irq
"enhance frame fragment detection" fix.
So what has occured here is that 2.6.32 is only vulnerable for mtu <
1500 due to the jumbo specific routines in both e1000 and e1000e.
So, 2.6.32 needs the 2kB buffer len fix for those smaller MTUs, but
is not vulnerable to the original issue reported. It has been pointed
out that this vulnerability needs to be patched in older kernels that
don't have the e1000 jumbo routine. Without the jumbo routines, we
need the "enhance frame fragment detection" fix the e1000, old
e1000e is only vulnerable for < 1500 mtu, and needs a similar
fix. We split the patches up to provide easy backport paths.
There is only a slight bit of extra code when this fix and the
original "enhance frame fragment detection" fixes are applied, so
please apply both, even though it is a bit of overkill.

Hey all-
A security discussion was recently given:
http://events.ccc.de/congress/2009/Fahrplan//events/3596.en.html
And a patch that I submitted awhile back was brought up. Apparently some of
their testing revealed that they were able to force a buffer fragment in e1000
in which the trailing fragment was greater than 4 bytes. As a result the
fragment check I introduced failed to detect the fragement and a partial
invalid frame was passed up into the network stack. I've written this patch
to correct it. I'm in the process of testing it now, but it makes good
logical sense to me. Effectively it maintains a per-adapter state variable
which detects a non-EOP frame, and discards it and subsequent non-EOP frames
leading up to _and_ _including_ the next positive-EOP frame (as it is by
definition the last fragment). This should prevent any and all partial frames
from entering the network stack from e1000.

Enabling VLAN filters (VFE) when the primary interface is brought up
(per commit 78ed11a) has caused problems for some users who manage
their systems using IPMI over a VLAN. This is because when the driver
enables the VLAN filter, this same filter table is enabled for the
management channel, and the table is initially empty, which means that
the IPMI/VLAN packets are filtered out and not received by the BMC.
This is a problem only on e1000 class adapters, as it is only
on e1000 that the filter table is common to the management and host
streams.
With this change, filtering is only enabled when one or more host VLANs
exist, and is disabled when the last host VLAN is removed. VLAN filtering
is always disabled when the primary interface is in promiscuous mode,
and will be (re)enabled if VLANs exist when the interface exits
promiscuous mode.
Note that this does not completely resolve the issue for those using VLAN
management, because if the host adds a VLAN, then the above problem
occurs when that VLAN is enabled. However, it does mean the there is no
problem for configurations where management is on a VLAN and the host is
not.
A complete solution to this issue would require further driver changes.
The driver would need to discover if (and which) management VLANs are
active before enabling VLAN filtering, so that it could ensure that the
managed VLANs are included in the VLAN filter table. This discovery
requires that the BMC identifies its VLAN in registers accessible
to the driver, and at least on Dell PE2850 systems the BMC does not
identify its VLAN to allow such discovery. Intel is pursuing this issue
with the BMC vendor.

This is code extremely similar to what is committed in e1000e
already.
e1000 will no longer request 32kB slab buffers to support jumbo
frames on PCI/PCI-X adapters. This will significantly reduce the
likelyhood of order:3 allocation failures.
This new code adds support for using pages as receive buffers,
and the driver will chain multiple pages together to build a
jumbo frame for OS consumption.
The hardware takes a power of two buffer size and will
dump as much data as it can receive into 1 or more buffers.
The benefits of applying this are
1) stop akpm's dissing :-) of this lame e1000 behavior [1]
2) more efficient memory allocation (half) when using jumbo
frames, which will also allow for much better socket utilization
with jumbos since the socket is charged for the full allocation
of each receive buffer, regardless of how much is used.
3) this was a feature request by a customer
4) copybreak for small packets < 256 bytes still applies

1) struct net_device becames a bit nicer.
2) in the future there will be a possibility to operate with lists independently
on netdevices (with exporting right functions).
I wanted to introduce this patch before I'll post a multicast lists conversion.

skb_dma_unmap() is quite expensive for small packets,
because we use two different cache lines from skb_shared_info.
One to access nr_frags, one to access dma_maps[0]
Instead of dma_maps being an array of MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 elements,
let dma_head alone in a new dma_head field, close to nr_frags,
to reduce cache lines misses.

Patch to fix bad length checking in e1000. E1000 by default does two
things:
1) Spans rx descriptors for packets that don't fit into 1 skb on recieve
2) Strips the crc from a frame by subtracting 4 bytes from the length prior to
doing an skb_put
Since the e1000 driver isn't written to support receiving packets that span
multiple rx buffers, it checks the End of Packet bit of every frame, and
discards it if its not set. This places us in a situation where, if we have a
spanning packet, the first part is discarded, but the second part is not (since
it is the end of packet, and it passes the EOP bit test). If the second part of
the frame is small (4 bytes or less), we subtract 4 from it to remove its crc,
underflow the length, and wind up in skb_over_panic, when we try to skb_put a
huge number of bytes into the skb. This amounts to a remote DOS attack through
careful selection of frame size in relation to interface MTU. The fix for this
is already in the e1000e driver, as well as the e1000 sourceforge driver, but no
one ever pushed it to e1000. This is lifted straight from e1000e, and prevents
small frames from causing the underflow described above

This patch converts unicast address list to standard list_head using
previously introduced struct netdev_hw_addr. It also relaxes the
locking. Original spinlock (still used for multicast addresses) is not
needed and is no longer used for a protection of this list. All
reading and writing takes place under rtnl (with no changes).
I also removed a possibility to specify the length of the address
while adding or deleting unicast address. It's always dev->addr_len.
The convertion touched especially e1000 and ixgbe codes when the
change is not so trivial.

a recent fix to e1000 (commit 15b2bee2) caused KVM/QEMU/VMware based
virtualized e1000 interfaces to begin failing when resetting.
This is because the driver in a virtual environment doesn't
get to run instructions *AT ALL* when an interrupt is asserted.
The interrupt code runs immediately and this recent bug fix
allows an interrupt to be possible when the interrupt handler
will reject it (due to the new code), when being called from
any path in the driver that holds the E1000_RESETTING flag.
the driver should use the __E1000_DOWN flag instead of the
__E1000_RESETTING flag to prevent interrupt execution
while reconfiguring the hardware.
