sfc: support for cascaded multicast filtering
Recent versions of firmware for SFC9100 adapters add support for filter
chaining, in which packets matching multiple filters are delivered to all
filters' recipients, rather than only the highest match-priority filter as was
previously the case.
This patch series enables this feature and redesigns the filter handling code
to make use of it; in particular, subscribing to a multicast address on one
function no longer prevents traffic to that address reaching another function
which is in promiscuous or allmulti mode.
If the firmware does not support filter chaining, the driver will fall back to
the old behaviour.

Separate functions for inserting individual and promisc filters; explicit

If the workaround to support cascaded multicast filters ("workaround_26807") is
enabled, the broadcast filter and individual multicast filters are not inserted
when in promiscuous or allmulti mode.
There is a race while inserting and removing filters when entering and leaving
promiscuous mode. When changing promiscuous state with cascaded multicast
filters, the old multicast filters are removed before inserting the new filters
to avoid duplicating packets; this can lead to dropped packets until all
filters have been inserted.
The efx_nic:mc_promisc flag is added to record the presence of a multicast
promiscuous filter; this gives a simple way to tell if the promiscuous state is
changing.

If a function is in promiscuous mode and another function has a broadcast or
multicast filter inserted, the function in promiscuous mode won't see that
broadcast or multicast traffic.
Most notably this breaks broadcast, which means ARP doesn't work. Less
show-stoppingly, a function listening on a multicast address that's also in
promiscuous mode will not see that multicast traffic if another function is
also listening on that multicast address.

When enabling the workaround for cascaded multicast filters, the MC
can reset other functions if they have already inserted filters.
In that case, the workaround has been enabled, but print an info
message in the log recording that other functions had to be reset.
As other functions were reset, the MC will have incremented its boot
count, so also increment the warm_boot_count on the function which
enabled the workaround, as that function won't have received an MC
reboot event and does not need to reset.

After creating event queue 0, check to see if the workaround is enabled,
and enable it if necessary. This will be called during PCI probe and
also when coming back up after a reset. The nic_data->workaround_26807
will be used in the future to control the filter insertion behaviour
based on this workaround.
Only the primary PF can enable this workaround, so tolerate an EPERM
error and continue. Otherwise, if any step in the checking and enabling
of the workaround fails, the event queue must be removed.
We check that workaround is implemented before trying to enable it,
and store the current workaround setting before trying to change it.

To check whether the load should take the fast path or not, the code
would check that (r_skb_hlen - load_order) is greater than the offset
of the access using an "Unsigned higher or same" condition. For
halfword accesses and an skb length of 1 at offset 0, that test is
valid, as we end up comparing 0xffffffff(-1) and 0, so the fast path
is taken and the filter allows the load to wrongly succeed. A similar
issue exists for word loads at offset 0 and an skb length of less than
4.
Fix that by using the condition "Signed greater than or equal"
condition for the fast path code for load orders greater than 0.

Hello.
Currently the link status auto-negotiation is enabled

The regression was reported:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/8/865
Apparently not all HW that implements SGMII protocol, generates the

More details here:

The commit 898b2970e2 ("mvneta: implement SGMII-based in-band link state

Unfortunately it appears that some HW that implements SGMII protocol,
doesn't generate the inband status, so it is not possible to auto-negotiate
anything with such HW.
This patch enables the auto-negotiation only if explicitly requested with
the 'managed' DT property.

Currently the PHY management type is selected by the MAC driver arbitrary.
The decision is based on the presence of the "fixed-link" node and on a
will of the driver's authors.
This caused a regression recently, when mvneta driver suddenly started
to use the in-band status for auto-negotiation on fixed links.
It appears the auto-negotiation may not work when expected by the MAC driver.
Sebastien Rannou explains:
<< Yes, I confirm that my HW does not generate an in-band status. AFAIK, it's
a PHY that aggregates 4xSGMIIs to 1xQSGMII ; the MAC side of the PHY (with
inband status) is connected to the switch through QSGMII, and in this context
we are on the media side of the PHY. >>
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/7/10/206
This patch introduces the new string property 'managed' that allows
the user to set the management type explicitly.
The supported values are:
"auto" - default. Uses either MDIO or nothing, depending on the presence
of the fixed-link node
"in-band-status" - use in-band status

fixed_phy_register() currently hardcodes the fixed PHY link to 1, and
expects to find a "speed" parameter to provide correct information
towards the fixed PHY consumer.
In a subsequent change, where we allow "managed" (e.g: (RS)GMII in-band
status auto-negotiation) fixed PHYs, none of these parameters can be
provided since they will be auto-negotiated, hence, we just provide a
zero-initialized fixed_phy_status to fixed_phy_register() which makes it
fail when we call fixed_phy_update_regs() since status.speed = 0 which
makes us hit the "default" label and error out.
Without this change, we would also see potentially inconsistent
speed/duplex parameters for fixed PHYs when the link is DOWN.

The SF2 driver currently overrides speed settings for its port
configured using a fixed PHY, this is both unnecessary and incorrect,
because we keep feedback to the hardware parameters that we read from
the PHY device, which in the case of a fixed PHY cannot possibly change
speed.
This is a required change to allow the fixed PHY code to allow
registering a PHY with a link configured as DOWN by default and avoid
some sort of circular dependency where we require the link_update
callback to run to program the hardware, and we then utilize the fixed
PHY parameters to program the hardware with the same settings.

====================
Lightweight & flow based encapsulation
This series combines the work previously posted by Roopa, Robert and
myself. It's according to what we discussed at NFWS. The motivation
of this series is to:
* Consolidate code between OVS and the rest of the kernel and get
rid of OVS vports and instead represent them as pure net_devices.
* Introduce a lightweight tunneling mechanism which enables flow
based encapsulation to improve scalability on both RX and TX.
* Do the above in an encapsulation unspecific way so that the
encapsulation type is eventually abstracted away from the user.
* Use the same forwarding decision for both native forwarding and
encapsulation thus allowing to switch between native IPv6 and
UDP encapsulation based on endpoint without requiring additional
logic
The fundamental changes introduces in this series are:
* A new RTA_ENCAP Netlink attribute for routes carrying encapsulation
instructions. Depending on the specified type, the instructions
apply to UDP encapsulations, MPLS and possible other in the future.
* Depending on the encapsulation type, the output function of the
dst is directly overwritten or the dst merely attaches metadata and
relies on a subsequent net_device to apply it to the packet. The
latter is typically used if an inner and outer IP header exist which
require two subsequent routing lookups to be performed.
* A new metadata_dst structure which can be attached to skbs to
carry metadata in between subsystems. This new metadata transport
is used to provide a single interface for VXLAN, routing and OVS
to communicate through metadata.
The OVS interfaces remain as-is but will transparently create a real
VXLAN net_device in the background. iproute2 is extended with a new
use cases:
VXLAN:
ip route add 40.1.1.1/32 encap vxlan id 10 dst 50.1.1.2 dev vxlan0
MPLS:
ip route add 10.1.1.0/30 encap mpls 200 via inet 10.1.1.1 dev swp1
Performance implications:
The additional memory allocation in the receive path should have
performance implications although it is not observable in standard
throughput tests if GRO is properly done. The correct net_device
model outweights the additional cost of the allocation. Furthermore,
this implication can be relaxed by reintroducing a direct unqueued
path from a software device to a consumer like bridge or OVS if
needed.

Allows putting a VXLAN device into a new flow-based mode in which
skbs with a ip_tunnel_info dst metadata attached will be encapsulated
according to the instructions stored in there with the VXLAN device
defaults taken into consideration.
Similar on the receive side, if the VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA flag is
set, the packet processing will populate a ip_tunnel_info struct for
each packet received and attach it to the skb using the new metadata
dst. The metadata structure will contain the outer header and tunnel
header fields which have been stripped off. Layers further up in the
stack such as routing, tc or netfitler can later match on these fields
and perform forwarding. It is the responsibility of upper layers to
ensure that the flag is set if the metadata is needed. The flag limits
the additional cost of metadata collecting based on demand.
This prepares the VXLAN device to be steered by the routing and other
subsystems which allows to support encapsulation for a large number
of tunnel endpoints and tunnel ids through a single net_device which
improves the scalability.
It also allows for OVS to leverage this mode which in turn allows for
the removal of the OVS specific VXLAN code.
Because the skb is currently scrubed in vxlan_rcv(), the attachment of
the new dst metadata is postponed until after scrubing which requires
the temporary addition of a new member to vxlan_metadata. This member
is removed again in a later commit after the indirect VXLAN receive API
has been removed.

If output device wants to see the dst, inherit the dst of the
original skb and pass it on to generate the ARP request.

Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata
between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer.
The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of
metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry
multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be
made stackable.
The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non
reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before
queueing the skb.
In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing
dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The
existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being
renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what.
The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts
and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret
metadata in a later commit.

ip_route_input() unconditionally overwrites the dst. Hide the original
dst attached to the skb by calling skb_dst_set(skb, NULL) prior to
ip_route_input().

Rename the tunnel metadata data structures currently internal to
OVS and make them generic for use by all IP tunnels.
Both structures are kernel internal and will stay that way. Their
members are exposed to user space through individual Netlink
attributes by OVS. It will therefore be possible to extend/modify
these structures without affecting user ABI.

This patch introduces lwtunnel_output function to call corresponding
lwtunnels output function to xmit the packet.
It adds two variants lwtunnel_output and lwtunnel_output6 for ipv4 and
ipv6 respectively today. But this is subject to change when lwtstate will
reside in dst or dst_metadata (as per upstream discussions).
