Add below clock management to save fec power:
- After probe, disable all clocks incluing ipg, ahb, enet_out, ptp clock.
- Open ethx interface enable necessary clocks.
Close ethx interface disable all clocks.
The patch also encapsulates the all enet clocks enable/disable to
.fec_enet_clk_enable(), which can reduce the repetitional code in
driver.

====================
net: Introduce a software TSO helper API
Here's a first proposal for a generic software TSO helper API, following
David's suggestion.
There are at least two drivers that currently implement some form of software
TSO: Solarflare network driver (drivers/net/ethernet/sfc) and Tilera GX
network driver (drivers/net/ethernet/tile/tilegx.c).
The rationale behind adding a generic API is to provide a boiler plate with the
segmentation and other common tasks, making this support easier to add in other
drivers.
When designing the API, I've considered mainly two design choices:
1. Implement a series of callbacks that each driver would implement
and the net core code would call to fill in descriptors and egress
that data.
2. Implement an API for drivers to use in a driver's specific tx_tso
function. This functions would exhaust a sk_buff payload, and use the
API as helper for building the headers and segmented data.
I've chosen (2), to avoid function pointers (which was Willy's concern) and
because it seemed less fragile. Of course, this is argueable.
The API is by no means complete, and lacks some features, however it allows
to support TSO in mv643xx_eth and mvneta network drivers with some very
good performance results. I've added this support as an example of the API
in action.
In particular the following needs some revisiting:
1. IPv6 support is lacking.
2. The required descriptor counting needs some verification. The current
implementation might be too "sketchy". The tilegx one can be a good
starting point.
3. The implemenation assumes the hardware can compute the TCP and IP
checksums for the built headers. However, some controllers may need
some initial calculation (such as tilegx, for instance).
Despite this, I hope this proposal is good enough to trigger some discussion
and to check if I'm on the right track. Feedback is much appreciated!

As specified in the datasheet, the driver can set the "L4Chk_Mode" flag
(bit 10) in the Tx descriptor command/status to specify that a frame is not
IP fragmented and that the controller is in charge of generating the TCP/IP
checksum. This must be used together with the "GL4chk" flag (bit 17).
These two flags allow to avoid setting the initial TCP checksum in the l4i_chk
field of the Tx descriptor, which is needed to support software TSO.

Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter/nftables updates for net-next,
most relevantly they are:
1) Add set element update notification via netlink, from Arturo Borrero.
2) Put all object updates in one single message batch that is sent to
kernel-space. Before this patch only rules where included in the batch.
This series also introduces the generic transaction infrastructure so
updates to all objects (tables, chains, rules and sets) are applied in
an all-or-nothing fashion, these series from me.
3) Defer release of objects via call_rcu to reduce the time required to
commit changes. The assumption is that all objects are destroyed in
reverse order to ensure that dependencies betweem them are fulfilled
(ie. rules and sets are destroyed first, then chains, and finally
tables).
4) Allow to match by bridge port name, from Tomasz Bursztyka. This series
include two patches to prepare this new feature.
5) Implement the proper set selection based on the characteristics of the
data. The new infrastructure also allows you to specify your preferences
in terms of memory and computational complexity so the underlying set
type is also selected according to your needs, from Patrick McHardy.

Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates
This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf.
Shannon makes minor changes to the AdminQ interface to bring it up to
date. Removes the hard coding of stats struct size in ethtool, in prep
for adding data fields which are configuration dependent.
Catherine removes some unused and unneeded PCI bus defines.
Jesse fixes the copyright headers and finishes up the removal of the PTP
Tx work functionality which allows us to rely on the Tx timesync interrupt.
Mitch provides a number of fixes and cleanups for i40e/i40evf based on
suggestions from Ben Hutchings. First is to use a macro parameter for
ethtool stats instead of just assuming that a valid netdev variable
exists. Second is not to tell ethtool that the VF can do 10GbaseT, when
it really has no idea what its link speed is, so set the supported value
to 0 instead. Make the ethtool_ops structure constant since it is
extremely unlikely to change at runtime. Ethtool consistently reports
0 values for our ITR settings because we never actually use them, so
fix this by setting the default values to the specified default values.
Greg avoids a compile error by wrapping the call to i40e_alloc_vfs() in
CONFIG_PCI_IOV because the function itself is wrapped in the same
conditional compile block.
Alexander Gordeev updates the driver to use the new pci_enable_msi_range()
and pci_enable_msix_range() or pci_enable_msi_exact() and

Experience with the recent e114a710aa ("tcp: fix cwnd limited
checking to improve congestion control") has shown that there are
common cases where that commit can cause cwnd to be much larger than
necessary. This leads to TSO autosizing cooking skbs that are too
large, among other things.
The main problems seemed to be:
(1) That commit attempted to predict the future behavior of the
connection by looking at the write queue (if TSO or TSQ limit
sending). That prediction sometimes overestimated future outstanding
packets.
(2) That commit always allowed cwnd to grow to twice the number of
outstanding packets (even in congestion avoidance, where this is not
needed).
This commit improves both of these, by:
(1) Switching to a measurement-based approach where we explicitly
track the largest number of packets in flight during the past window
("max_packets_out"), and remember whether we were cwnd-limited at the
moment we finished sending that flight.
(2) Only allowing cwnd to grow to twice the number of outstanding
packets ("max_packets_out") in slow start. In congestion avoidance
mode we now only allow cwnd to grow if it was fully utilized.

Channels in 2.4GHz band overlap, this means that if we
send a probe request on channel 1 and then move to channel
2, we will hear the probe response on channel 2. In this
case, the RSSI will be lower than if we had heard it on
the channel on which it was sent (1 in this case).
The firmware / low level driver can parse the channel in
the DS IE or HT IE and compensate the RSSI so that it will
still have a valid value even if we heard the frame on an
adjacent channel. This can be done up to a certain offset.
Add this offset as a configuration for the low level driver.
A low level driver that can compensate the low RSSI in this
case should assign the maximal offset for which the RSSI
value is still valid.

SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
sk_unattached_filter_destroy() - destroy socket filter
Cleanup internal BPF kernel API as following:
sk_filter_select_runtime() - final step of internal BPF creation.
Try to JIT internal BPF program, if JIT is not available select interpreter
SK_RUN_FILTER() - run it
sk_filter_free() - free internal BPF program
Disallow direct calls to BPF interpreter. Execution of the BPF program should
be done with SK_RUN_FILTER() macro.
Example of internal BPF create, run, destroy:
struct sk_filter *fp;
fp = kzalloc(sk_filter_size(prog_len), GFP_KERNEL);
memcpy(fp->insni, prog, prog_len * sizeof(fp->insni[0]));

sk_filter_free(fp);
Sockets, seccomp, testsuite, tracing are using different ways to populate
sk_filter, so first steps of program creation are not common.

This patch adds support for adaptive interrupt coalescing.
For small pkts with low pkt rate, we can decrease the coalescing interrupt
dynamically which decreases the latency. This however increases the cpu
utilization. Based on testing with different coal intr and pkt rate we came up
with a table(mod_table) with rx_rate and coalescing interrupt value where we
get low latency without significant increase in cpu. mod_table table stores
the coalescing timer percentage value for different throughputs.
Function enic_calc_int_moderation() calculates the desired coalescing intr timer
value. This function is called in driver rx napi_poll. The actual value is set
by enic_set_int_moderation() which is called when napi_poll is complete. i.e
when we unmask the rx intr.
Adaptive coal intr is support only when driver is using msix intr. Because
intr is not shared.
Struct mod_range is used to store only the default adaptive coalescing intr
value.
Adaptive coal intr calue is calculated by
timer = range_start + ((rx_coal->range_end - range_start) *
mod_table[index].range_percent / 100);
rx_coal->range_end is the rx-usecs-high value set using ethtool.
range_start is rx-usecs-low, set using ethtool, if rx_small_pkt_bytes_cnt is
greater than 2 * rx_large_pkt_bytes_cnt. i.e small pkts are dominant. Else its
rx-usecs-low + 3.

Pull two powerpc fixes from Ben Herrenschmidt:
"Here are a couple of fixes for 3.15. One from Anton fixes a nasty
regression I introduced when trying to fix a loss of irq_work whose
consequences is that we can completely lose timer interrupts on a
CPU... not pretty.
The other one is a change to our PCIe reset hook to use a firmware
call instead of direct config space accesses to trigger a fundamental
reset on the root port. This is necessary so that the FW gets a
chance to disable the link down error monitoring, which would
otherwise trip and cause subsequent fatal EEH error"
* 'merge' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/benh/powerpc:
powerpc: irq work racing with timer interrupt can result in timer interrupt hang
powerpc/powernv: Reset root port in firmware
To be future-proof and for better readability the time comparisons are modified
to use time_before() instead of plain, error-prone math.
