Piotr Gardocki 11c314a5a4 iavf: Introduce new state machines for flow director 
[ Upstream commit 3a0b5a2929 ]

New states introduced:

 IAVF_FDIR_FLTR_DIS_REQUEST
 IAVF_FDIR_FLTR_DIS_PENDING
 IAVF_FDIR_FLTR_INACTIVE

Current FDIR state machines (SM) are not adequate to handle a few
scenarios in the link DOWN/UP event, reset event and ntuple-feature.

For example, when VF link goes DOWN and comes back UP administratively,
the expectation is that previously installed filters should also be
restored. But with current SM, filters are not restored.
So with new SM, during link DOWN filters are marked as INACTIVE in
the iavf list but removed from PF. After link UP, SM will transition
from INACTIVE to ADD_REQUEST to restore the filter.

Similarly, with VF reset, filters will be removed from the PF, but
marked as INACTIVE in the iavf list. Filters will be restored after
reset completion.

Steps to reproduce:
-------------------

1. Create a VF. Here VF is enp8s0.

2. Assign IP addresses to VF and link partner and ping continuously
from remote. Here remote IP is 1.1.1.1.

3. Check default RX Queue of traffic.

ethtool -S enp8s0 | grep -E "rx-[[:digit:]]+\.packets"

4. Add filter - change default RX Queue (to 15 here)

ethtool -U ens8s0 flow-type ip4 src-ip 1.1.1.1 action 15 loc 5

5. Ensure filter gets added and traffic is received on RX queue 15 now.

Link event testing:
-------------------
6. Bring VF link down and up. If traffic flows to configured queue 15,
test is success, otherwise it is a failure.

Reset event testing:
--------------------
7. Reset the VF. If traffic flows to configured queue 15, test is success,
otherwise it is a failure.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
