In the current codes, the octeontx2 uses its own method to allocate
the pool buffers, but there are some issues in this implementation.
1. We have to run the otx2_get_page() for each allocation cycle and
this is pretty error prone. As I can see there is no invocation
of the otx2_get_page() in otx2_pool_refill_task(), this will leave
the allocated pages have the wrong refcount and may be freed wrongly.
2. It wastes memory. For example, if we only receive one packet in a
NAPI RX cycle, and then allocate a 2K buffer with otx2_alloc_rbuf()
to refill the pool buffers and leave the remain area of the allocated
page wasted. On a kernel with 64K page, 62K area is wasted.
IMHO it is really unnecessary to implement our own method for the
buffers allocate, we can reuse the napi_alloc_frag() to simplify
our code.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

This patch unifies invalid MAC address handling with other drivers.
Basically we've switched to using standard APIs (is_valid_ether_addr /
eth_hw_addr_random) where possible.
It's worth noting that some of engineering Aquantia NICs might be
provisioned with a partially zeroed out MAC, which is still invalid,
but not caught by is_valid_ether_addr(), so we've added a special
handling for this case.
Also adding a warning in case of fallback to random MAC, because
this shouldn't be needed on production NICs, they should all be
provisioned with unique MAC.
NB! Default systemd/udevd configuration is 'MACAddressPolicy=persistent'.
This causes MAC address to be persisted across driver reloads and
reboots. We had to change it to 'none' for verification purposes.

After previous modifications, the offloads are no longer called one by
one, the pi is calculated and the wqe is cleared on between of TLS and
IPSEC offloads, which doesn't quite fit mlx5e_accel_handle_tx's purpose.
This patch splits mlx5e_accel_handle_tx into two functions that
correspond to two logical phases of running offloads:
1. Before fetching a WQE. Here runs the code that can post WQEs on its
own, before the main WQE is fetched. It's the main part of TLS offload.
2. After fetching a WQE. Here runs the code that updates the WQE's
fields, but can't post other WQEs any more. It's a minor part of TLS
offload that sets the tisn field in the cseg, and eseg-based offloads
(currently IPSEC, and later patches will move GENEVE and checksum
offloads there, too).
It allows to make mlx5e_xmit take care of all actions needed to transmit
a packet in the right order, improve the structure of the code and
reduce unnecessary operations. The structure will be further improved in
the following patches (all eseg-based offloads will be moved to a single
place, and reserving space for the main WQE will happen between phase 1
and phase 2 of offloads to eliminate unneeded data movements).

TLS offload may write a 32-bit field (tisn) to the cseg of the WQE. To
do that, it receives pi and wqe pointers. As TLS offload may also send
additional WQEs, it has to update pi and wqe, and in many cases it even
doesn't use pi calculated before and wqe zeroed before and does it
itself. Also, mlx5e_sq_xmit has to copy the whole cseg if it goes to the
mlx5e_fill_sq_frag_edge flow. This all is not efficient.
It's more efficient to do the following:
1. Just return tisn from TLS offload and make the caller fill it in a
more appropriate place.
2. Calculate pi and clear wqe after calling TLS offload.
3. If TLS offload has to send WQEs, calculate pi and clear wqe just
before that. It's already done in all places anyway, so this commit
allows to remove some redundant memsets and calls.
Copying of cseg will be eliminated in one of the following commits, and
all other stuff is done here.

Maor Gottlieb Says:
====================
Bonding: Add support to get xmit slave
The following series adds support to get the LAG master xmit slave by
introducing new .ndo - ndo_get_xmit_slave. Every LAG module can
implement it and it first implemented in the bond driver.
This is follow-up to the RFC discussion [1].
The main motivation for doing this is for drivers that offload part
of the LAG functionality. For example, Mellanox Connect-X hardware
implements RoCE LAG which selects the TX affinity when the resources
are created and port is remapped when it goes down.
The first part of this patchset introduces the new .ndo and add the
support to the bonding module.
The second part adds support to get the RoCE LAG xmit slave by building
skb of the RoCE packet based on the AH attributes and call to the new
.ndo.
The third part change the mlx5 driver driver to set the QP's affinity
port according to the slave which found by the .ndo.
