| David Brownell | [patch 2.6.29-rc8] dm9000 locking bugfix
From: David Brownell <dbrownell@users.sourceforge.net>
This fixes a locking bug in the dm9000 driver. It calls
request_irq() without setting IRQF_DISABLED ... which is
correct for handlers that support IRQ sharing, since that
behavior is not guaranteed for shared IRQs. However, its
IRQ handler then wrongly assumes that IRQs are blocked.
So the fix just uses the right spinlock primitives in the
IRQ handler.
NOTE: this is a classic example of the type of bug which
lockdep currently masks ...

Jesse, I just with this patch in my e1000 environment and it works
great. Almost 1,000,000 packets exchanged with active

Please note that in contrast to the version I posted here previously,
this patch does not use platform_get_irq_flags() anymore. Nobody seemed
interested in the patch I sent along to implement that in
drivers/base/platform.c, so I gather the flags manually from this driver
now, using platform_get_resource().

Hi.
Back in the 2.6.25/26-days .. (around 9 months ago) I had som stuggles
getting both performance and stabillity out of a Sun Neptune 10Gbit NIC
over fibre. The NIU driver blew up on the system under load but Matheos
Worku send me an internal Sun driver (nxge) that performed fairly well.
It peaked out around 800-850 MB/s .. it put a fairly high load on the
host system and peaked with over 300.000 cs/s (both numbers measured
with dstat).
Today I got around to tesing the NIU(2.6.27.20) ...

Yes I remember this stuff. David added multi tx queue support in last July
(for 2.6.27)
Could you post more information please, about load on individual cpus
for example ? (top snapshot with one line per cpu)
Is NFS using TCP or UDP on your setup ?
An interesting test would be the reverse path (transmit from clients to
this server)
Also, testing 2.6.29 could be interesting, since UDP receive
path doesnt need to use a global rwlock anymore.

Can there be something about "fairness" changed? While producing the
screenshot to you below I got this one on the server:
do_ypcall: clnt_call: RPC: Unable to send; errno = No buffer space available
Thats harder to setup and not be "disk IO-bound on the server". Perhaps
I'll put that on my todo list..

| Waskiewicz Jr, Peter P | Re: [PATCH 2/2] ixgbe: fix select_queue management (v2)
That's not how DCB works. We use sch_multiq to identify the traffic we
want to put into the 8 bands. So in other words, the user will add tc
filters to move the traffic around. We override select queue to filter
the rest of the traffic into a single queue, so we don't randomly put
traffic into the other hardware priority queues.
Either way, thanks for cleaning this up Stephen. It was something I
needed to do, and haven't done yet. So I very much appreciate it.

From: "Waskiewicz Jr, Peter P" <peter.p.waskiewicz.jr@intel.com>
It's escaping me why the multiq rules can't handle this?
In the end, it's a decision of where the logic lives. Currently
the default handling logic is in the ->select_queue() override,
and I'm still not at all convinced it has to be there.
