The user can change delay_first_probe_time parameter through sysctl.
Listen to NETEVENT_DELAY_PROBE_TIME_UPDATE notifications and update the
intervals for updating the neighbours 'used' value periodic task and
for flow HW counters query periodic task.
Both of the intervals will be update only in case the new delay prob
time value is lower the current interval.

Since the driver saves only one min interval value and not per device,
the users will be able to set lower interval value for updating
neighbour 'used' value periodic task but they won't be able to schedule
a higher interval for this periodic task.
The used interval for scheduling neighbour 'used' value periodic task is

When IP tunnel encapsulation rules are offloaded, the kernel can't see
the traffic of the offloaded flow. The neighbour for the IP tunnel
destination of the offloaded flow can mistakenly become STALE and
deleted by the kernel since its 'used' value wasn't changed.

To make sure that a neighbour which is used by the HW won't become
STALE, we proactively update the neighbour 'used' value every
DELAY_PROBE_TIME period, when packets were matched and counted by the HW
for one of the tunnel encap flows related to this neighbour.

The periodic task that updates the used neighbours is scheduled when a
tunnel encap rule is successfully offloaded into HW and keeps re-scheduling
itself as long as the representor's neighbours list isn't empty.

Add, remove, lookup and status change operations done over the
representor's neighbours list or the neighbour hash entry encaps list
are all serialized by RTNL lock.

In order to offload TC encap rules, the driver does a lookup for the IP
tunnel neighbour according to the output device and the destination IP
given by the user.

To keep tracking after the validity state of such neighbours, we keep
the neighbours information (pair of device pointer and destination IP)
in a hash table maintained at the relevant egress representor and
register to get NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE events. When getting neighbour update
netevent, we search for a match among the cached neighbours entries used for
encapsulation.

In case the neighbour isn't valid, we can't offload the flow into the
HW. We cache the flow (requested matching and actions) in the driver and
offload the rule later, when the neighbour is resolved and becomes
valid.

When a flow is only cached in the driver and not offloaded into HW
yet, we use EAGAIN return value to mark it internally, the TC ndo still
returns success.

Listen to kernel neighbour update netevents to trace relevant neighbours
validity state:

1. If a neighbour becomes valid, offload the related rules to HW.

2. If the neighbour becomes invalid, remove the related rules from HW.

3. If the neighbour mac address was changed, update the encap header.
   Remove all the offloaded rules using the old encap header from the HW
   and insert new rules to HW with updated encap header.

Access to the neighbors hash table is protected by RTNL lock of its
caller or by the table's spinlock.

Details of the locking/synchronization among the different actions
applied on the neighbour table:

Add/remove operations - protected by RTNL lock of its caller (all TC
commands are protected by RTNL lock). Add and remove operations are
initiated only when the user inserts/removes a TC rule into/from the driver.

Lookup/remove operations - since the lookup operation is done from
netevent notifier block, RTNL lock can't be used (atomic context).
Use the table's spin lock to protect lookups from TC user removal operation.
bh is used since netevent can be called from a softirq context.

Lookup/add operations - The hash table access functions are taking
care of the protection between lookup and add operations.

When adding/removing encap headers and rules to/from the HW, RTNL lock
is used. It can happen when:

1. The user inserts/removes a TC rule into/from the driver (TC commands
are protected by RTNL lock of it's caller).

2. The driver gets neighbour notification event, which reports about
neighbour validity status change. Before adding/removing encap headers
and rules to/from the HW, RTNL lock is taken.

A neighbour hash table entry should be freed when its encap list is empty.
Since The neighbour update netevent notification schedules a neighbour
update work that uses the neighbour hash entry, it can't be freed
unconditionally when the encap list becomes empty during TC delete rule flow.
Use reference count to protect from freeing neighbour hash table entry
while it's still in use.

When the user asks to unregister a netdvice used by one of the neigbours,
neighbour removal notification is received. Then we take a reference on the
neighbour and don't free it until the relevant encap entries (and flows) are
marked as invalid (not offloaded) and removed from HW.
As long as the encap entry is still valid (checked under RTNL lock) we
can safely access the neighbour device saved on mlx5e_neigh struct.

Instead of relaying on the 'flow->rule' pointer value which can be

10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-29

This series contains updates to ixgbe and ixgbevf only, most notable is
the addition of XDP support to our 10GbE drivers.

Paul fixes ixgbe to acquire the PHY semaphore before accessing PHY
registers when issuing a device reset.

John adds XDP support (yeah!) for ixgbe.

Emil fixes an issue by flushing the MACVLAN filters on VF reset to avoid
conflicts with other VFs that may end up using the same MAC address.  Also
fixed a bug where ethtool -S displayed some empty fields for ixgbevf
because it was using ixgbe_stats instead ixgbevf_stats for
IXGBEVF_QUEUE_STATS_LEN.

Tony adds the ability to specify a zero MAC address in order to clear the
VF's MAC address from the RAR table.  Also adds support for a new
1000Base-T device based on x550EM_X MAC type.  Fixed an issue where the
RSS key specified by the user would be over-written with a pre-existing
value, so change the rss_key to a pointer so we can check to see if the
key has a value set before attempting to set it.  Fixed the logic for
mailbox support for getting RETA and RSS values, which are only supported
by 82599 and x540 devices.

A couple design choices were made here. First I use a new ring
pointer structure xdp_ring[] in the adapter struct instead of
pushing the newly allocated XDP TX rings into the tx_ring[]
structure. This means we have to duplicate loops around rings
in places we want to initialize both TX rings and XDP rings.
But by making it explicit it is obvious when we are using XDP
rings and when we are using TX rings. Further we don't have
to do ring arithmatic which is error prone. As a proof point
for doing this my first patches used only a single ring structure
and introduced bugs in FCoE code and macvlan code paths.

Second I am aware this is not the most optimized version of
this code possible. I want to get baseline support in using
the most readable format possible and then once this series
is included I will optimize the TX path in another series
of patches.

To overcome bugs as described and fixed in 89087c45 ("bpf: Fix

and bpf_percpu() accessor macro for all percpu map values used in
tests.

Declaring variables works as follows (also works for structs):

  BPF_DECLARE_PERCPU(uint32_t, my_value);

They can then be accessed normally as uint32_t type through:

  bpf_percpu(my_value, <cpu_nr>)

For example:

  bpf_percpu(my_value, 0)++;

Implicitly, we make sure that the passed type is allocated and aligned
by gcc at least on a 8-byte boundary, so that it works together with
the map lookup/update syscall for percpu maps. We use it as a usage
example in test_maps, so that others are free to adapt this into their

Existing API 'ieee80211_get_sdata_band' returns default 2 GHz band even
if the channel context configuration is NULL. This crashes for chipsets
which support 5 Ghz alone when it tries to access members of 'sband'.
Channel context configuration can be NULL in multivif case and when
channel switch is in progress (or) when it fails. Fix this by replacing
the API 'ieee80211_get_sdata_band' with  'ieee80211_get_sband' which
returns a NULL pointer for sband when the channel configuration is NULL.

An example scenario is as below:

In multivif mode (AP + STA) with drivers like ath10k, when we do a
channel switch in the AP vif (which has a number of clients connected)
and a STA vif which is connected to some other AP, when the channel
switch in AP vif fails, while the STA vifs tries to connect to the
other AP, there is a window where the channel context is NULL/invalid
and this results in a crash  while the clients connected to the AP vif
tries to reconnect and this race is very similar to the one investigated
by Michal in https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/3788161/ and this does
happens with hardware that supports 5Ghz alone after long hours of
testing with continuous channel switch on the AP vif

struct ieee80211_tx_status instead of struct ieee80211_tx_info.

This struct can be used to pass extra information, e.g. for dynamic tx
power control

Instead of hand-coding the bit manipulations, use the bitfield
macros to generate the code for the encoded bitrate.
