Adds support for RTNH_F_DEAD and RTNH_F_LINKDOWN flags on mpls
routes due to link events. Also adds code to ignore dead
routes during route selection.
Unlike ip routes, mpls routes are not deleted when the route goes
dead. This is current mpls behaviour and this patch does not change
that. With this patch however, routes will be marked dead.
dead routes are not notified to userspace (this is consistent with ipv4
routes).
dead routes:
-----------
$ip -f mpls route show
100
nexthop as to 200 via inet 10.1.1.2 dev swp1
nexthop as to 700 via inet 10.1.1.6 dev swp2
$ip link set dev swp1 down
$ip link show dev swp1
4: swp1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN mode

nexthop as to 200 via inet 10.1.1.2 dev swp1 dead linkdown
nexthop as to 700 via inet 10.1.1.6 dev swp2
linkdown routes:

If the driver is used on an ARM platform with SPARSE_IRQ defined,
semantics of NR_IRQS is different (minimal value of virtual irqs) and
by default it is set to 16, see arch/arm/include/asm/irq.h.
This value may be less than the actual number of virtual irqs, which
may break the driver initialization. The check removal allows to use
the driver on such a platform, and, if irq controller driver works
correctly, the check is not needed on legacy platforms.

mq/mqprio have their own ways to report qlen/drops by folding stats on
all their queues, with appropriate locking.
A second problem is that qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() calls qdisc_lookup()
without proper locking : concurrent qdisc updates could corrupt the list
that qdisc_match_from_root() parses to find a qdisc given its handle.
Fix first problem adding a TCQ_F_NOPARENT qdisc flag that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can use to abort its tree traversal,
as soon as it meets a mq/mqprio qdisc children.
Second problem can be fixed by RCU protection.
Qdisc are already freed after RCU grace period, so qdisc_list_add() and
qdisc_list_del() simply have to use appropriate rcu list variants.
A future patch will add a per struct netdev_queue list anchor, so that
qdisc_tree_decrease_qlen() can have more efficient lookups.

Setting a value bigger than 255 resulted in using only the lower eight
bits of that value as it is assigned to the u8 header field. To avoid
this unexpected result, reject such values.
Setting a value of zero is technically possible, but hosts receiving
such a packet have to treat it like hop_limit was set to one, according
to RFC2460. Therefore I don't see a use-case for that.
Setting a route's hop_limit to zero in iproute2 means to use the sysctl
default, which is not the case here: Setting e.g.
net.conf.eth0.hop_limit=0 will not make the kernel use
net.conf.all.hop_limit for outgoing packets on eth0. To avoid these
kinds of confusion, reject zero.

We want to be able to probe a few selected device drivers before hwmod
code populates the clocks in omap_hwmod_setup_all(). This allows us to
convert most of the clock drivers into regular device drivers.
We only need a few minimal clock drivers early for the system timers to
select between the 32KiHz clock and the high frequency oscillator.
With these changes, initializing the clock drivers can be just done at
core_initcall time with something like:
np = of_find_node_by_name(NULL, "plls");
if (np)
of_platform_populate(np, NULL, NULL, NULL);
And then these clocks will be available for the interconnect code to use.
Having most of the clock drivers being regular device drivers allows
us to use the nice things like devm_* functions and dev_err and dev_dbg.
As an extra bonus, this also allows us to develop the clock drivers for
new SoCs as loadable modules initially for cases where we can boot up
the system based on the bootloader configured clocks.
To do this, let's change the core_initcalls to postcore_initcall under
mach-omap2.

Boqun Feng reported a rather nasty ordering issue with spin_unlock_wait
on architectures implementing spin_lock with LL/SC sequences and acquire
semantics:
| CPU 1 CPU 2 CPU 3
| ================== ==================== ==============
| spin_unlock(&lock);
| spin_lock(&lock):
| r1 = *lock; // r1 == 0;
| o = READ_ONCE(object); // reordered here
| object = NULL;
| smp_mb();
| spin_unlock_wait(&lock);
| *lock = 1;
| smp_mb();
| o->dead = true;
| if (o) // true
| BUG_ON(o->dead); // true!!
The crux of the problem is that spin_unlock_wait(&lock) can return on
CPU 1 whilst CPU 2 is in the process of taking the lock. This can be
resolved by upgrading spin_unlock_wait to a LOCK operation, forcing it
to serialise against a concurrent locker and giving it acquire semantics
in the process (although it is not at all clear whether this is needed -
different callers seem to assume different things about the barrier
semantics and architectures are similarly disjoint in their
implementations of the macro).
This patch implements spin_unlock_wait using an LL/SC sequence with
acquire semantics on arm64. For v8.1 systems with the LSE atomics, the
exclusive writeback is omitted, since the spin_lock operation is
indivisible and no intermediate state can be observed.

function, to avoid the use of signal variable for storing
seconds in the first part of this function as later it uses
a time unit that is defined by the global "timer" variable.
This makes it more clear.
ktime_set() is used to set a value in seconds to a value in
nanosecond so that ktime_compare() can be used appropriately.
ktime_compare() is used to compare two ktime values.

Software triggers can be created directly from drivers or from user

This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only.
Mitch updates the i40evf driver by increasing the maximum number of queues,
since future devices will allow for more queue pairs. Cleans up a
duplicate printing of the driver info string done in init, since it is
already done in probe. Cleaned up the several allocations which did
not need to be at atomic level, where GFP_KERNEL would work just fine.
Then makes i40e_sync_vsi_filters() a more mature function, make having
a common exit point so it will properly release the busy lock on the VSI
and propagate errors to the callers. Then does some whitespace
housekeeping in i40evf.
Kiran moves and updates the detection/recovery of transmit queue hang code
to service_task from tx_timeout function. Also fixed memory leak when
users program flow-director filter using ethtool (sideband filter
programming), the cause being the check of 'tx_buffer->skb' was preventing
'raw_buf' from being freed as part of the cleanup.
Jesse enabled the ability to turn off/on packet split using ethtool priv
flags. Then does some housekeeping for both the i40e and i40evf drivers
which includes: remove unused/useless code, correct whitespace, remove
duplicate #include, fix incorrect comment, etc...
Neerav cleans up functions to gather Flow Control Rx XOFF stats, since
the recent change in the driver logic for checking transmit hang has been
moved, so these functions do not do anything meaningful any longer.

Introducing ConnectX-4 Ethernet SRIOV
This patchset introduces the support of Ethernet SRIOV in ConnectX-4
family of 100G Ethernet NICs.
Some features are still missing, but all the basic SRIOV functionalities
are there already.
Basic Introduction:
ConnectX-4 HW architecture provides two kinds of underlying HW switches.
MPFS (Multi Physical Function Switch) or L2 Table in Software terms:
The HCA has one MPFS switch per physical port, this switch is responsible
of forwarding Unicast traffic to the various overlying Physical Functions (PFs).
Multicast traffic is flooded amongst all the PFs, Each PF can request to
forward a unicast MAC to its E-Switch Uplink vport (which we will cover later)
through SET_L2_TABLE_ENTRY HW command.
MPFS has five ports, four are connected to PFs (one for each) and one is connected
directly to the Physical Port (Physical Link).
E-Switch (Ethernet Switch):
The HCA has one per physical function. The main responsibility of this component is
to forward Unicast/Multicast and vlan tagged/untagged traffic to the various
Virtual Functions (VFs) allocated by the PF. Unlike MPFS, the PF needs to explicitly
create the E-Switch FDB table, Which is a HW flow table managed by the PF driver
whenever vport_group_manager capability bit is set for this PF.
E-Switch has Virtual Ports (vports) entities as its ports, vport0 and uplink vport
are special kind of vports that represents PF vport (vport0) and uplink vport which
is connected to the MPFS switch (if exists) as the PF external link.
vport1..vportN represent VF0..VF(N-1) egress/ingress ports.
E-Switch FDB contains forwarding rules such as:
UC MAC0 -> vport0(PF).
UC MAC1 -> vport1.
UC MAC2 -> vport2.
MC MACX -> vport0, vport2, Uplink.
MC MACY -> vport1, Uplink.
For unmatched traffic FDB has the following default rules:
Unmatched Traffic (src vport != Uplink) -> Uplink.
Unmatched Traffic (src vport == Uplink) -> vport0(PF).
NIC VPort context:
Each NIC (VF/PF) has its own vport context which will be used to store the current
NIC vport context (UC/MC and vlan lists) and other NIC properties such as MTU, promisc
mode, etc.. NIC (VF/PF) driver is responsible of constantly updating this context.
FDB rules population:
Each NIC vport (VF/PF) will notify E-Switch manager of its UC/MC vport
context changes via modify vport context command, which will be
translated to an event that will be handled by E-Switch manager (PF)
which will update FDB table accordingly.
Both PF and VF use the same driver and submit commands directly to the firmware.
The PF sees the vport_group_manager capability bit and as such runs the code
to populate the embedded switches as explained above.
The patch goes as follows:
Patches 1-2 introduces the basic PCI SRIOV functionalities and the support of
Connectx4 to enable specific VFs via enable/disable HCA commands. These two
patches will be also in use later for the IB SRIOV flow.
Patches 3-8 Introduces the basic E-Switch capabilities and commands to be used later by
VF to modify and update its NIC vport context, and by PF (E-Switch Manager) driver to
Query the VF NIC context and acts accordingly.
Patches 9-10 Provide the needed functionality of a NIC driver VF/PF to support SRIOV,
mainly vport context update support.
Patch 11 ("net/mlx5: Introducing E-Switch and l2 table"), Introduces the basic
E-Switch support and infrastructure to read vport context events and to update
MPFS L2 Table of the UC mac addresses request by the PF.
Patches 12-18 Introduces SRIOV enablemenet and E-Switch FDB table management
It adds the Basic E-Swtich public API to set and get sriov properties to be used
in PF netdev sriov ndos.
Patchset was applied ontop of commit 3f8c0f7 "gianfar: use of_property_read_bool()"

E-Switch vport context is unlike NIC vport context, managed by the
E-Switch manager or vport_group_manager and not by the NIC(VF) driver.
The E-Switch manager can access (read/modify) any of its vports
E-Switch context.
Currently E-Switch vport context includes only clietnt and server
vlan insertion and striping data (for later support of VST mode).

Enabling E-Switch SRIOV for nvfs+1 vports.
Create E-Switch FDB for L2 UC/MC mac steering between VFs/PF and
external vport (Uplink).
FDB contains forwarding rules such as:
UC MAC0 -> vport0(PF).
UC MAC1 -> vport1.
UC MAC2 -> vport2.
MC MACX -> vport0, vport2, Uplink.
MC MACY -> vport1, Uplink.
For unmatched traffic FDB has the following default rules:
Unmached Traffic (src vport != Uplink) -> Uplink.
Unmached Traffic (src vport == Uplink) -> vport0(PF).
FDB rules population:
Each NIC vport (VF) will notify E-Switch manager of its UC/MC vport
context changes via modify vport context command, which will be
translated to an event that will be handled by E-Switch manager (PF)
which will update FDB table accordingly.

E-Switch is the software entity that represents and manages ConnectX4
inter-HCA ethernet l2 switching.
E-Switch has its own Virtual Ports, each Vport/vNIC/VF can be
connected to the device through a vport of an e-switch.
Each e-switch is managed by one vNIC identified by
HCA_CAP.vport_group_manager (usually it is the PF/vport[0]),
and its main responsibility is to forward each packet to the
right vport.
e-Switch needs to manage its own l2-table and FDB tables.
L2 table is a flow table that is managed by FW, it is needed for
Multi-host (Multi PF) configuration for inter HCA switching between
PFs.
FDB table is a flow table that is totally managed by e-Switch driver,
its main responsibility is to switch packets between e-Swtich internal
vports and uplink vport that belong to the same.
This patch introduces only e-Swtich l2 table management, FDB managemnt
will come later when ethernet SRIOV/VFs will be enabled.
