net: mellanox: add DEVLINK dependencies
The new NET_DEVLINK infrastructure can be a loadable module, but the drivers
using it might be built-in, which causes link errors like:

There are multiple ways to avoid this:
a) add 'depends on NET_DEVLINK || !NET_DEVLINK' dependencies
for each user
b) use 'select NET_DEVLINK' from each driver that uses it
and hide the symbol in Kconfig.
c) make NET_DEVLINK a 'bool' option so we don't have to
list it as a dependency, and rely on the APIs to be
stubbed out when it is disabled
d) use IS_REACHABLE() rather than IS_ENABLED() to check for
NET_DEVLINK in include/net/devlink.h
This implements a variation of approach a) by adding an
intermediate symbol that drivers can depend on, and changes
the three drivers using it.

ath10k: reduce number of peers to support peer stats feature
To enable per peer stats feature we are reducing the number of peers.
Firmware has introduced tx stats feature. We have memory limitation in
firmware to add these additional bytes.
These are the new variables introduced in the firmware.
======== =======================
Variable Bytes required/per rate
======== =======================
TX success packets 1
TX failed packets 1
Retry packets 1
Success bytes 2
TX failed bytes 2
Retry bytes 2
Tx duration 4
Rate 1
Bw and AMPDU flags 1
Total 16 (because of allocation in word pattern)
Firmware sends these tx_stats in pktlog.
If we consider 4 feedbacks at a time, Frimware need about ~1K memory for coding
and 8192 bytes required / per rate [ 4*16*128(peers)].
To accommodate this firmware needs to reduce 10 peers.
This fixes a firmware crash with firmware-5.bin_10.2.4.70.22-2.
On multicore systems, it is possible that txrx tasket can run
in parallel with pci tasklet (i.e smp affinity of ath10k irq is
assigned to multiple CPUs). Feeding and consuming from the same
rx completion list leads to txrx tasklet runs for longer period.
Prevent this by processing a snapshot of rx queue by moving list
into temporary list. Consecutive received frames will be processed
in next batch.
ath10k: reduce rx_lock contention for htt rx indication
Received frame indications are queued into a skb list and latest
processed by txrx tasklet. This skb queue is protected by htt rx lock.
Since the entire rx processing till delivering frame to mac80211 and
replenish tasks are processed under rx_lock protection, there might be
some delay in queuing newly received rx frame into that list on
multicore systems. Optimize this by using skb list lock while accessing
rx completion queue instead of htt rx lock.
ath10k: add hw_rev to trace events to support pktlog
pktlog data is different between firmware variants (eg. 10.2 vs 10.4). To
have a unified user space script to decode pktlog trace events generated,
it is desirable to know which firmware variant has provided the events and
thereby decode the pktlogs appropriately. Hardware revision (hw_rev) helps
to determine the firmware variant sending these trace events. So add hw_rev
to trace events.
Currently, we are providing wrong payload data of pktlog to trace points.
Data we receive from FW through copy engine 8 contains pktlog data alone.
We don't need to parse anything in driver before handing it to trace
points.

stmmac: enhance driver performances and update the version
According to Giuseppe, I send the v3 series.
This is a subset of patches to rework the driver in order to improve its
performances and make it more robust under stress conditions.
All patches have been ported on STi mainstream kernel branch and
tested on ARM STiH4xx platforms and newer ones.
This series also updates the driver version and prepares it
to include further development to support new chips.
In detail, these patches are:
o to rework and improve the internal DMA bus settings
Fine tuning is mandatory on some platforms for both
performance and stability issues.
o to rework and optimize the descriptor management.
This will help a lot on performance side and preparing
the inclusion on the GMAC4.x.
o to add a set of optimizations for both xmit and rx functions.
These will help a lot on performance side and making the driver
more robust in case of low memory conditions and under some
stress test, performed for example on IP-STB.
Below some throughput figures obtained on some boxes before and after
the patches.
V2: - rx_copybreak is now managed by using ethtool.
V3: - improve comments on PCIe detailing that there are no regressions
- rework some APIs to properly define some params as bool as expected
- rework the formula to get the element inside the ring. Comparing V2,
patches 4 and 13 have been merged because the same formula have been
used. After this rework, no evident benefit has been noticed in terms
of performances so the table above is still valid. Disassembling the
code for SH4 and ARM, with the new formula just an instr is saved
(depending on compiler flags) and this gives us not so relevanti gain,
for example, on SH4 where some instr are executed in the same pipeline
stage.
Ring sizes are now fixed and maybe they can be reworked to be tuned
w/o using stmmaceth= cmdline option. Indeed, nobody change these sizes
and indeed the numbers selected by default respect the budget and
avoid to pass invalid setup. These are the best driver default sizes
for ring and chain.
There is a threshold now used to also limit the skb allocation
when use zero-copy. This is to avoid that there are incoherence
in the ring due to a failure on skb allocation under very
aggressive testing and under low memory conditions.
This patch is to allow this driver to copy tiny frames during the reception
process. This is giving more stability while stressing the driver on STi
embedded systems.

The patch takes care about the algorithm adopted to mitigate the
interrupts, then it fixes the last segment in case of no fragments.
Moreover, this new implementation does not pass any "ter" field when
prepare the descriptors because this is not necessary.
The patch also details the memory barrier in the xmit.
As final results, this patch guarantees the same performances
but fixing a case if small datagram are sent. In fact, this
kind of test is impacted if no coalesce is done.

tx resources are claimed. This will help on performances too.

Optimize tx_clean by avoiding a des3 read in stmmac_clean_desc3().
In ring mode, TX, des3 seems only used when xmit a jumbo frame.
In case of normal descriptors, it may also be used for time
stamping.
Clean it in the above two case, without reading it.
last_segment field is read twice from dma descriptors in stmmac_clean().
Add last_segment to dma data so that this flag is from priv
structure in cache instead of memory.
It avoids reading twice from memory for each loop in stmmac_clean().
Currently, the code pulls out the length field when
unmapping a buffer directly from the descriptor. This will result
in an uncached read to a dma_alloc_coherent() region. There is no
need to do this, so this patch simply puts the value directly into
a data structure which will hit the cache.
This patch is to rework the ring management now optimized.
The indexes into the ring buffer are always incremented, and
the entry is accessed via doing a modulo to find the "real"
position in the ring.
It is inefficient, modulo is an expensive operation.
The formula [(entry + 1) & (size - 1)] is now adopted on
a ring that is power-of-2 in size.
Then, the number of elements cannot be set by command line but
it is fixed.
This patch completely changes the descriptor layout to improve
the whole performances due to the single read usage of the
descriptors in critical paths.
stmmac: rework DMA bus setting and introduce new platform AXI structure
This patch restructures the DMA bus settings and this is done
by introducing a new platform structure used for programming
the AXI Bus Mode Register inside the DMA module.
This structure can be populated from device-tree as documented in the
binding txt file.
After initializing the DMA, the AXI register can be optionally tuned
for platform drivers based.
This patch also reworks some parameters to make coherent the DMA
configuration now that AXI register is introduced.
For example, the burst_len is managed by using the mentioned axi
support above; so the snps,burst-len parameter has been removed.
It makes sense to provide the AAL parameter from DT to Address-Aligned
Beats inside the Register0 and review the PBL settings when initialize
the engine.
For PCI glue, rebuilding the story of this setting, it
was added to align a configuration so not for fixing some
known problem. No issue raised after this patch.
It is safe to use the default burst length instead of
tuning it to the maximum value

this is our (hopefully) latest batch of patches intended for net-next.
With this patchset we finally introduce B.A.T.M.A.N. V: the latest
version of our routing protocol.
Technical documentation describing the protocol in more detail can
be found in our wiki[1][2][3][4].
For what concerns this pull request, you can find the high level
description right below.
With this patchset we finally introduce our new routing protocol:
B.A.T.M.A.N. V. Its implementation started quite some years ago,
but due to the big changes being introduced it took a while to be
discussed, designed, worked, re-worked, tested and debugged (well,
we're never done with the latest). The entire operation has
basically been a team work involving all the core contributors
together with other people interested in the project.
The new protocol is divided into two main subcomponents, called
respectively ELP and OGMv2. The former is in charge of
dealing with the neighbour discovery and link quality estimation,
while the latter implements the algorithm that spreads the
metrics around the network and computes optimal paths.
The biggest change introduced with B.A.T.M.A.N. V is the new
metric: the protocol won't rely on packet loss anymore, but it
will use the estimated throughput extracted directly from the
wifi driver (when available) by querying cfg80211.
Batman-adv will also send some unicast probing packets when
an interface is not used for payload traffic to make sure that
such values are current.
The new protocol can be compiled-in or not like other
features we have and when selected will pull in CFG80211 as
dependency for the reason described above.
Thanks to the big work brought up in the past by Marek Lindner,
batman-adv can easily deal several protocol implementations,
therefore compiling in this new version does not exclude the
older.
This means that the user is offered the option to choose
the protocol when creating the mesh interface (default is the
old one to keep backward compatibility).
Along with the protocol there are some sysfs knobs that are
introduced to fine tune some of its behaviours, but users
are recommended to keep the default values unless they know
what they are doing.

The first patch in the series is a semantic alignemnt of the code.

qed: Print additional HW attention info
This patch utilizes the attention infrastructure to log additional
information that relates only to specific HW blocks.
For some of those HW blocks, it also stops automatically disabling the
attention generation as the attention is considered benign and thus
should only be logged; No fear of it flooding the system.

qed: Print HW attention reasons
Each HW block contains common information about attention reasons,
raising a bit for each one of the different sub-reasons that caused it
to raise an attention.
This patch extends the infrastructure by allowing logging of the various
reasons causing the HW blocks to generate an attention.

qed: Add support for HW attentions
HW is capable of generating attentnions for a multitude of reasons,
but current driver is enabling attention generation only for management
firmware [required for link notifications].
This patch enables almost all of the possible reasons for HW attentions,
logging the HW block generating the attention and preventing further
attentions from that source [to prevent possible attention flood].
It also lays the infrastructure for additional exploration of the various
attentions.

====================
mlx5 driver updates
This series includes some bug fixes and updates for the mlx5 core
and ethernet driver.
From Gal, two fixes that protects the update CQ moderation flows
when it is not allowed.
From Moshe, two fixes for the core and ethernet driver in
non-cached(NC) and write combining(WC) buffers mappings,
which prevents the driver from double memory mappings.
From Or, reduce the firmware command completion timeout.
From Tariq, several small trivial fixes.
Changes from v0:
- "Fix global UAR mapping" commit messages updated to explain ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WC usage.
- rebased to commit 8d3f2806f8fb 'Merge branch ethtool-ksettings'
Changes from v1:
- Removed ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WC config flag from "Fix global UAR mapping" commit, as it was not accurate to use it.
- Squashed "Fix global UAR mapping" and "net/mlx5: Avoid double mapping of io mapped memory"
- Added more info for "Fix global UAR mapping" in commit message
Changes from v2:
- None. resubmission per Dave's request due to two parallel submissions to mlx5 driver.

net/mlx5: Fix global UAR mapping
Avoid double mapping of io mapped memory, Device page may be
mapped to non-cached(NC) or to write-combining(WC).
The code before this fix tries to map it both to WC and NC
contrary to what stated in Intel's software developer manual.
Here we remove the global WC mapping of all UARS
"dev->priv.bf_mapping", since UAR mapping should be decided
per UAR (e.g we want different mappings for EQs, CQs vs QPs).
Caller will now have to choose whether to map via
write-combining API or not.
mlx5e SQs will choose write-combining in order to perform
BlueFlame writes.

net: ipv6/l3mdev: Move host route on saved address if necessary
Commit f1705ec197e70 allows IPv6 addresses to be retained on a link down.
The address can have a cached host route which can point to the wrong
FIB table if the L3 enslavement is changed (e.g., route can point to local
table instead of VRF table if device is added to an L3 domain).
On link up check the table of the cached host route against the FIB
table associated with the device and correct if needed.

Convert network timestamps to be y2038 safe
Introduction:
The series is aimed at transitioning network timestamps to being
y2038 safe.
All patches can be reviewed and merged independently.
Socket timestamps and ioctl calls will be handled separately.
Thanks to Arnd Bergmann for discussing solution options with me.
Solution:
Data type struct timespec is not y2038 safe.
Replace timespec with struct timespec64 which is y2038 safe.

Move and rename inet_current_time() as discussed

ICMP timestamp messages and IP source route options require

midnight UT format.
Add inet_current_timestamp() function to support this. The function
returns the required timestamp in network byte order.
Timestamp calculation is also changed to call ktime_get_real_ts64()
which uses struct timespec64. struct timespec64 is y2038 safe.
Previously it called getnstimeofday() which uses struct timespec.

net_sched: Add support for IFE action
As agreed at netconf in Seville, here's the patch finally (1 year
was just too long to wait for an ethertype. Now we are just going
have the user configure one).
Described in netdev01 paper:
"Distributing Linux Traffic Control Classifier-Action Subsystem"
Authors: Jamal Hadi Salim and Damascene M. Joachimpillai
The original motivation and deployment of this work was to horizontally
scale packet processing at scope of a chasis or rack. This means one
could take a tc policy and split it across machines connected over
L2. The paper refers to this as "pipeline stage indexing". Other
use cases which evolved out of the original intent include but are
not limited to carrying OAM information, carrying exception handling
metadata, carrying programmed authentication and authorization information,
encapsulating programmed compliance information, service IDs etc.
Read the referenced paper for more details.
The architecture allows for incremental updates for new metadatum support
to cover different use cases.
This patch set includes support for basic skb metadatum.
Followup patches will have more examples of metadata and other features.
v4 changes:
Integrate more feedback from Cong
v3 changes:
Integrate with the new namespace changes
Remove skbhash and queue mapping metadata (but keep their claim for ids)
Integrate feedback from Cong
Integrate feedback from Daniel
v2 changes:
Remove module option for an upper bound of metadata
Integrate feedback from Cong
