igb: Update igb to use a path similar to ixgbe to determine when to stop Tx
After reviewing the igb and ixgbe code I realized there are a few issues in
how the code is structured. Specifically we are not checking the size of the
buffers being used in transmits and we are not using the same value to
determine when to stop or start a Tx queue. As such the code is prone to be
buggy.
This patch makes it so that we have one value DESC_NEEDED that we will use for
starting and stopping the queue. In addition we will check the size of
buffers being used when setting up a transmit so as to avoid a possible buffer
overrun if we were to receive a frame with a block of data larger than 32K in
skb->data.

gianfar: Fix and cleanup Rx FCB indication
This fixes a less obvious error on one hand, and prevents futher
similar errors by disambiguating and optimizing RxFCB indication,
on the other hand.
The error consists in NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX flag being used as an
indication of Rx FCB insertion. This happened as soon gfar_uses_fcb(),
which despite its name indicates Rx FCB insertion, started
incorporating is_vlan_on().
is_vlan_on(), on the other hand, is also a misleading construct because
we need to differentiate b/w hw VLAN extraction/VLEX (marked by VLAN_RX
flag) and hw VLAN insertion/VLINS (VLAN_TX flag), which are different
mechanisms using different types of FCBs.
The hw spec for the RxFCB feature is as follows:
In the case of RxBD rings, FCBs (Frame Control Block) are inserted by
the eTSEC whenever RCTRL[PRSDEP] is set to a non-zero value. Only one
FCB is inserted per frame (in the buffer pointed to by the RxBD with
bit F set). TOE acceleration for receive is enabled for all rx frames
in this case.
This patch introduces priv->uses_rxfcb field to quickly signal RxFCB
insertion in accordance with the specification above.
The dependency on FSL_GIANFAR_DEV_HAS_TIMER was also eliminated as
another source of confusion. The actual dependency is to priv->hwts_rx_en.
Upon changing priv->hwts_rx_en via IOCTL, the gfar device is being
restarted and on init_mac() the priv->hwts_rx_en flag determines RxFCB
insertion, and rctrl is programmed accordingly. The patch takes care
of this case too.
Though maybe not as self documenting as the inlining version uses_fcb(),
priv->uses_rxfcb has the main purpose to quickly signal, on the hot path,
that the incoming frame has a *Rx* FCB block inserted which needs to be
pulled out before passing the skb to the stack. This is a performance
critical operation, it needs to happen fast, that's why uses_rxfcb is
placed in the first cacheline of gfar_private.
This is also why a cached rctrl cannot be used instead: 1) because
we don't have 32 bits available in the first cacheline of gfar_priv
(but only 16); 2) bit operations are expensive on the hot path.

The controller's ref manual states clearly that when the hw Rx vlan
offload feature is enabled, meaning that the VLEX bit from RCTRL is

and deletion from the ethernet frames. So there's no point in trying to
increase the rx buff size when rxvlan is on, as the frame is actually
smaller.

by having the members required by the driver's hot path re-grouped

Another benefit comes from eliminating a 24 byte memory hole that
was rendering gfar_priv's 2nd cacheline useless. The default gcc
layout of gfar_private leaves an implicit 24 byte hole after the
errata (enum) member. This patch fixes it.
The uchar bitfields were pushed towards the end of the struct

around to couple the uchar bitfields memeber with, we will
have an addititnal 2 byte hole after the bitfields. This is

Changes since v10
* Updated implemenation of ndo_fdb_del in emulex and qlogic drivers.
Changes since v9:
* series re-ordering so make functionality more distinct. Basic vlan
filtering is patches 1-4. Support for PVID/untagged vlans is patches
5 and 6. VLAN support for FDB/MDB is patches 7-11. Patch 12 is
still additional egress policy.
* Slight simplification to code that extracts the VID from skb. Since we
now depend on the vlan module, at the time of input skb_tci is guaranteed
to be set if the packet had 8021q header. We can simply refere to it.
* Changed the opaque 'parent' pointer from prior patches to a union so we
can be much more explicit in our assignments.
* Lots of additional testing with STP turned on. No issues were observed.
Changes since v8:
* Unified vlans_to_* calls into a single interface
* Fixed the rest of the issues report by Michal Miroslaw
* Fixed a bug where fdb entries were not created for all added vlans.
Changes since v7:
* Rebases on the latest net-next and removed the vlan wrapper patch from
the series.
* Fixed a crash in br_fdb_add/br_fdb_delete.
Changes since v6:
* VLANs are now stored in a VLAN bitmap per port. This allows for O(1)
lookup at ingress and egress. We simply check to see if the bit associated
with the vlan id is set in the map. The drawback to this approach is that
it wastes some space when there is only a small number of VLANs.
* In addition to the build time configuration option, VLAN filtering also has
a configuration paramter in sysfs. By default the filtering is turned off
and all traffic is permitted. When the filtring is turned on, we do strict
matching to the filter configured. Thus, if there is no configuration, all
packets are rejected. This was done to make the behavior more streight
forward. Without this (and if egress policy patch is rejected), the
decision for how to forward untagged traffic that was not filtered at ingress
is almost impossible to make. It would not be right to deliver to every
port that has PVID set as, each port may have a different PVID.
* Separate egress policy bitmap patch has been isolated and is provided last
in the series. This has been a more contentious piece of functionality and I
wanted to isolate it so that it could easily be dropped and not block the whole
series.
Changes since v5:
- Pulled VLAN filtering into its own file and made it a configuration options.
- Made new vlan filtering option dependent on VLAN_8021Q.
- Got rid of HW filter inlines and moved then vlan_core.c.
(All of the above suggested by Stephen Hemminger)
Changes since v4:
- Pull per-port vlan data into its own structures and give it to the bridge
device thus making bridge device behave like a regular port for vlan
configuration.
- Add a per-vlan 'untagged' bitmap that determins egress policy. If a port
is part of this bitmap, traffic egresses untagged.
- PVID is now used for ingress policy only. Incomming frames without VLAN tag
are assigned to the PVID vlan. Egress is determined via bitmap memberships.
- Allow for incremental config of a vlan. Now, PVID and untagged memberships
may be set on existing vlans. They however can NOT be cleared separately.
- VLAN deletion is now done via RTM_DELLINK command for PF_BRIDGE family.
This cleans up the netlink interface.
Changes since v3:
- Re-integrated compiler problems that got left out last time. Appologies.
- checkpatches.pl errors fixed
Changes since v2:
- Added inline functiosn to manimulate vlan hw filters and re-use in 8021q
and bridge code.
- Use rtnl_dereference (Michael Tsirkin)
- Remove synchronize_net() call (Eric Dumazet)
- Fix NULL ptr deref bug I introduced in br_ifinfo_notify.
Changes since v1:
- Fixed some forwarding bugs.
- Add vlan to local fdb entries. New local entries are created per vlan
to facilite correct forwarding to bridge interface.
- Allow configuration of vlans directly on the bridge master device
in addition to ports.
Changes since rfc v2:
- Per-port vlan bitmap is gone and is replaced with a vlan list.
- Added bridge vlan list, which is referenced by each port. Entries in
the birdge vlan list have port bitmap that shows which port are parts
of which vlan.
- Netlink API changes.
- Dropped sysfs support for now. If people think this is really usefull,
can add it back.
- Support for native/untagged vlans.
Changes since rfc v1:
- Comments addressed regarding formatting and RCU usage
- iocts have been removed and changed over the netlink interface.
- Added support of user added ndb entries.
- changed sysfs interface to export a bitmap. Also added a write interface.
I am not sure how much I like it, but it made my testing easier/faster. I
might change the write interface to take text instead of binary.

However, before converting them over to atomic64_t, I noticed

for exporting this data into the ethtool buffer, and in doing
so, it assumed that the counters would always be u64. Rather
than keep this implicit assumption, a simple code cleanup gets
rid of the struct completely, and leaves less conversion sites.
The alternative solution would have been to take advantage of
the fact that the counters are all relating to error conditions,

that U32_MAX of any particular error condition is highly unlikely.

gianfar: remove largely unused gfar_stats struct
The gfar_stats struct is only used in copying out data
via ethtool. It is declared as the extra stats, followed
by the rmon stats. However, the rmon stats are never
actually ever used in the driver; instead the rmon data
is a u32 register read that is cast directly into the
ethtool buf.
It seems the only reason rmon is in the struct at all is
to give the offset(s) at which it should be exported into
the ethtool buffer. But note gfar_stats doesn't contain
a gfar_extra_stats as a substruct -- instead it contains
a u64 array of equal element count. This implicitly means
we have two independent declarations of what gfar_extra_stats
really is. Rather than have this duality, we already have
defines which give us the offset directly, and hence do not
need the struct at all.
Further, since we know the extra_stats is unconditionally
always present, we can write it out to the ethtool buf
1st, and then optionally write out the rmon data. There
is no need for two independent loops, both of which are
simply copying out the extra_stats to buf offset zero.
This also helps pave the way towards allowing the extra
stats fields to be converted to atomic64_t values, without
having their types directly influencing the ethtool stats
export code (gfar_fill_stats) that expects to deal with u64.

net: fec_mpc52xx: Read MAC address from device-tree
Until now, the MPC5200 FEC ethernet driver relied upon the bootloader
(U-Boot) to write the MAC address into the ethernet controller
registers. The Linux driver should not rely on such a thing. So
lets read the MAC address from the DT as it should be done here.
The following priority is now used to read the MAC address:
1) First, try OF node MAC address, if not present or invalid, then:
2) Read from MAC address registers, if invalid, then:
3) Log a warning message, and choose a random MAC address.
This fixes a problem with a MPC5200 board that uses the SPL U-Boot
version without FEC initialization before Linux booting for
boot speedup.
Additionally a status line is now be printed upon successful

__netpoll_rcu_free is used to free netpoll structures when the rtnl_lock is

outside of the holding of the rtnl_lock, so as to avoid deadlock.
Unfortunately, __netpoll_cleanup modifies pointers (dev->np), which means the
rtnl_lock must be held while calling it. Further, it cannot be held, because
rcu callbacks may be issued in softirq contexts, which cannot sleep.
Fix this by converting the rcu callback to a work queue that is guaranteed to
get scheduled in process context, so that we can hold the rtnl properly while

GVRP has been superseded by the Multiple VLAN Registration Protocol
