bnge: return after auxiliary_device_uninit() in error path

2026-04-13T22:59:48Z

When auxiliary_device_add() fails, the error block calls auxiliary_device_uninit() but does not return. The uninit drops the last reference and synchronously runs bnge_aux_dev_release(), which sets bd->auxr_dev = NULL and frees the underlying object. The subsequent bd->auxr_dev->net = bd->netdev then dereferences NULL, which is not a good thing to have happen when trying to clean up from an error. Add the missing return, as the auxiliary bus documentation states is a requirement (seems that LLM tools read documentation better than humans do...)

bng_en: add support for ethtool -S stats display

2026-04-12T18:09:37Z

Implement the legacy ethtool statistics interface (get_sset_count, get_strings, get_ethtool_stats) to expose hardware counters not available through standard kernel stats APIs. Ex: a) Per-queue ring stats rxq0_ucast_packets: 2 rxq0_mcast_packets: 0 rxq0_bcast_packets: 15 rxq0_ucast_bytes: 120 rxq0_mcast_bytes: 0 rxq0_bcast_bytes: 900 txq0_ucast_packets: 0 txq0_mcast_packets: 0 txq0_bcast_packets: 0 txq0_ucast_bytes: 0 txq0_mcast_bytes: 0 txq0_bcast_bytes: 0 b) Per-queue TPA(LRO/GRO) stats rxq4_tpa_eligible_pkt: 0 rxq4_tpa_eligible_bytes: 0 rxq4_tpa_pkt: 0 rxq4_tpa_bytes: 0 rxq4_tpa_errors: 0 rxq4_tpa_events: 0 c) Port level stats rxp_good_vlan_frames: 0 rxp_mtu_err_frames: 0 rxp_tagged_frames: 0 rxp_double_tagged_frames: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri0: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri1: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri2: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri3: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri4: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri5: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri6: 0 rxp_pfc_ena_frames_pri7: 0 rxp_eee_lpi_events: 0 rxp_eee_lpi_duration: 0 rxp_runt_bytes: 0 rxp_runt_frames: 0 txp_good_vlan_frames: 0 txp_jabber_frames: 0 txp_fcs_err_frames: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri0: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri1: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri2: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri3: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri4: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri5: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri6: 0 txp_pfc_ena_frames_pri7: 0 txp_eee_lpi_events: 0 txp_eee_lpi_duration: 0 txp_xthol_frames: 0 d) Per-priority stats rx_bytes_pri0: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri1: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri2: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri3: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri4: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri5: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri6: 4182650 rx_bytes_pri7: 4182650 Signed-off-by: Bhargava Marreddy Reviewed-by: Vikas Gupta Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260406180420.279470-11-bhargava.marreddy@broadcom.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

bng_en: implement netdev_stat_ops

2026-04-12T18:09:37Z

Implement netdev_stat_ops to provide standardized per-queue statistics via the Netlink API. Below is the description of the hardware drop counters: rx-hw-drop-overruns: Packets dropped by HW due to resource limitations (e.g., no BDs available in the host ring). rx-hw-drops: Total packets dropped by HW (sum of overruns and error drops). tx-hw-drop-errors: Packets dropped by HW because they were invalid or malformed. tx-hw-drops: Total packets dropped by HW (sum of resource limitations and error drops). The implementation was verified using the ynl tool: ./tools/net/ynl/pyynl/cli.py --spec \ Documentation/netlink/specs/netdev.yaml --dump qstats-get --json \ '{"ifindex":14, "scope":"queue"}' [{'ifindex': 14, 'queue-id': 0, 'queue-type': 'rx', 'rx-bytes': 758, 'rx-hw-drop-overruns': 0, 'rx-hw-drops': 0, 'rx-packets': 11}, {'ifindex': 14, 'queue-id': 1, 'queue-type': 'rx', 'rx-bytes': 0, 'rx-hw-drop-overruns': 0, 'rx-hw-drops': 0, 'rx-packets': 0}, {'ifindex': 14, 'queue-id': 0, 'queue-type': 'tx', 'tx-bytes': 0, 'tx-hw-drop-errors': 0, 'tx-hw-drops': 0, 'tx-packets': 0}, {'ifindex': 14, 'queue-id': 1, 'queue-type': 'tx', 'tx-bytes': 0, 'tx-hw-drop-errors': 0, 'tx-hw-drops': 0, 'tx-packets': 0}, {'ifindex': 14, 'queue-id': 2, 'queue-type': 'tx', 'tx-bytes': 810, 'tx-hw-drop-errors': 0, 'tx-hw-drops': 0, 'tx-packets': 10},] Signed-off-by: Bhargava Marreddy Reviewed-by: Vikas Gupta Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260406180420.279470-10-bhargava.marreddy@broadcom.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

Use the timer to schedule periodic stats collection via the workqueue when the link is up. Fetch fresh counters from hardware via DMA and accumulate them into 64-bit software shadows, handling wrap-around for counters narrower than 64 bits.

bng_en: add HW stats infra and structured ethtool ops

2026-04-12T18:09:37Z

Implement the hardware-level statistics foundation and modern structured ethtool operations. 1. Infrastructure: Add HWRM firmware wrappers (FUNC_QSTATS_EXT, PORT_QSTATS_EXT, and PORT_QSTATS) to query ring and port counters. 2. Structured ops: Implement .get_eth_phy_stats, .get_eth_mac_stats, .get_eth_ctrl_stats, .get_pause_stats, and .get_rmon_stats. Stats are initially reported as 0; accumulation logic is added in a subsequent patch.
