Tony Nguyen says: ==================== ice: restore timestamp config after reset Jake Keller says: We recently discovered during internal validation that the ice driver has not been properly restoring Tx timestamp configuration after a device reset, which resulted in application failures after a device reset. After some digging, it turned out this problem is two-fold. Since the introduction of the PTP support the driver has been clobbering the storage of the current timestamp configuration during reset. Thus after a reset, the driver will no longer perform Tx or Rx timestamps, and will report timestamp configuration as disabled if SIOCGHWTSTAMP ioctl is issued. In addition, the recently merged auxiliary bus support code missed that PFINT_TSYN_MSK must be reprogrammed on the clock owner for E822 devices. Failure to restore this register configuration results in the driver no longer responding to interrupts from other ports. Depending on the traffic pattern, this can either result in increased latency responding to timestamps on the non-owner ports, or it can result in the driver never reporting any timestamps. The configuration of PFINT_TSYN_MSK was only done during initialization. Due to this, the Tx timestamp issue persists even if userspace reconfigures timestamping. This series fixes both issues, as well as removes a redundant Tx ring field since we can rely on the skb flag as the primary detector for a Tx timestamp request. Note that I don't think this series will directly apply to older stable releases (even v6.6) as we recently refactored a lot of the PTP code to support auxiliary bus. Patch 2/3 only matters for the post-auxiliary bus implementation. The principle of patch 1/3 and 3/3 could apply as far back as the initial PTP support, but I don't think it will apply cleanly as-is. ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231121211259.3348630-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
