When a VLAN is added to a bridge port and it doesn't exist on the bridge
device yet, it gets created for the multicast context, but it is
'hidden', since it doesn't have the BRENTRY flag yet:

ip link add br0 type bridge && ip link set swp0 master br0
bridge vlan add dev swp0 vid 100 # the master VLAN 100 gets created
bridge vlan add dev br0 vid 100 self # that VLAN becomes brentry just now

All switchdev drivers ignore switchdev notifiers for VLAN entries which
have the BRENTRY unset, and for good reason: these are merely private
data structures used by the bridge driver. So we might just as well not
notify those at all.

Cleanup in the switchdev drivers that check for the BRENTRY flag is now
possible, and will be handled separately, since those checks just became
dead code.

When a VLAN is added to a bridge port, a master VLAN gets created on the
bridge for context, but it doesn't have the BRENTRY flag.

Then, when the same VLAN is added to the bridge itself, that enters
through the br_vlan_add_existing() code path and gains the BRENTRY flag,
thus it becomes "existing".

It seems natural to check for this condition early, because the current
code flow is to notify switchdev of the addition of a VLAN that isn't a
brentry, just to delete it immediately afterwards.

The commit
a5886ef4 ("gve: Introduce per netdev `enum gve_queue_format`")
introduces three queue format type, only GVE_GQI_QPL_FORMAT queue has
page list. So it should use the queue page list number to detect the
zero size queue page list. Correct the design logic.

Using the 'queue_format == GVE_GQI_RDA_FORMAT' may lead to request zero
sized memory allocation, like if the queue format is GVE_DQO_RDA_FORMAT.

The kernel memory subsystem will return ZERO_SIZE_PTR, which is not NULL
address, so the driver can run successfully. Also the code still checks
the queue page list number firstly, then accesses the allocated memory,
so zero number queue page list allocation will not lead to access fault.

mlx5e: Synchronize ndo_select_queue with configuration changes

The kernel can call ndo_select_queue at any time, and there is no direct
way to block it. The implementation of ndo_select_queue in mlx5e expects
the parameters to be consistent and may crash (invalid pointer, division
by zero) if they aren't.

There were attempts to partially fix some of the most frequent crashes,
see commit 846d6da1 ("net/mlx5e: Fix division by 0 in
mlx5e_select_queue") and commit 84c8a874 ("net/mlx5e: Fix division
by 0 in mlx5e_select_queue for representors"). However, they don't
address the issue completely.

This series introduces the proper synchronization mechanism between
mlx5e configuration and TX data path:

1. txq2sq updates are synchronized properly with ndo_start_xmit
   (mlx5e_xmit). The TX queue is stopped when it configuration is being
   updated, and memory barriers ensure the changes are visible before
   restarting.

2. The set of parameters needed for mlx5e_select_queue is reduced, and
   synchronization using RCU is implemented. This way, changes are
   atomic, and the state in mlx5e_select_queue is always consistent.

3. A few optimizations are applied to the new implementation of
   mlx5e_select_queue.

To improve the performance of the modulo operation (%), it's replaced by
a subtracting the divisor in a loop. The modulo is used to fix up an
out-of-bounds value that might be returned by netdev_pick_tx or to
convert the queue number to the channel number when num_tcs > 1. Both
situations are unlikely, because XPS is configured not to pick higher
queues (qid >= num_channels) by default, so under normal circumstances
the flow won't go inside the loop, and it will be faster than %.

num_tcs == 8 adds at most 7 iterations to the loop. PTP adds at most 1
iteration to the loop. HTB would add at most 256 iterations (when
num_channels == 1), so there is an additional boundary check in the HTB
flow, which falls back to % if more than 7 iterations are expected.

This commit optimizes mlx5e_select_queue for HTB and PTP cases by
short-cutting some checks, without sacrificing performance of the common
non-HTB non-PTP flow.

1. The HTB flow uses the fact that num_tcs == 1 to drop these checks
(it's not possible to attach both mqprio and htb as the root qdisc).
It's also enough to calculate `txq_ix % num_channels` only once, instead
of twice.

2. The PTP flow drops the check for HTB and the second calculation of
`txq_ix % num_channels`.

ndo_select_queue can be called at any time, and there is no way to stop
the kernel from calling it to synchronize with configuration changes
(real_num_tx_queues, num_tc). This commit introduces an internal way in
mlx5e to sync mlx5e_select_queue() with these changes. The configuration
needed by this function is stored in a struct mlx5e_selq_params, which
is modified and accessed in an atomic way using RCU methods. The whole
ndo_select_queue is called under an RCU lock, providing the necessary
guarantees.

The parameters stored in the new struct mlx5e_selq_params should only be
used from inside mlx5e_select_queue. It's the minimal set of parameters
needed for mlx5e_select_queue to do its job efficiently, derived from
parameters stored elsewhere. That means that when the configuration
change, mlx5e_selq_params may need to be updated. In such cases, the
mlx5e_selq_prepare/mlx5e_selq_apply API should be used.

struct mlx5e_selq contains two slots for the params: active and standby.
mlx5e_selq_prepare updates the standby slot, and mlx5e_selq_apply swaps
the slots in a safe atomic way using the RCU API. It integrates well
with the open/activate stages of the configuration change flow.

When reset GPIO was missing, the driver was still printing an info

The initial value for the reset pin was changed to GPIOD_OUT_LOW,
followed by a gpiod_set_value() asserting the reset. This way, it will
be easier to spot if and where the reset really happens.

Disabling interrupts and in the RPS case locking input_pkt_queue is
split into local_irq_disable() and optional spin_lock().

This breaks on PREEMPT_RT because the spinlock_t typed lock can not be
acquired with disabled interrupts.
The sections in which the lock is acquired is usually short in a sense that it
is not causing long und unbounded latiencies. One exception is the
skb_flow_limit() invocation which may invoke a BPF program (and may
require sleeping locks).

By moving local_irq_disable() + spin_lock() into rps_lock(), we can keep
interrupts disabled on !PREEMPT_RT and enabled on PREEMPT_RT kernels.
Without RPS on a PREEMPT_RT kernel, the needed synchronisation happens
as part of local_bh_disable() on the local CPU.
____napi_schedule() is only invoked if sd is from the local CPU. Replace
it with __napi_schedule_irqoff() which already disables interrupts on
PREEMPT_RT as needed. Move this call to rps_ipi_queued() and rename the
function to napi_schedule_rps as suggested by Jakub.

Dave suggested a while ago (eleven years by now) "Let's make netif_rx()
work in all contexts and get rid of netif_rx_ni()". Eric agreed and
pointed out that modern devices should use netif_receive_skb() to avoid
the overhead.
In the meantime someone added another variant, netif_rx_any_context(),
which behaves as suggested.

netif_rx() must be invoked with disabled bottom halves to ensure that
pending softirqs, which were raised within the function, are handled.
netif_rx_ni() can be invoked only from process context (bottom halves
must be enabled) because the function handles pending softirqs without
checking if bottom halves were disabled or not.
netif_rx_any_context() invokes on the former functions by checking
in_interrupts().

netif_rx() could be taught to handle both cases (disabled and enabled
bottom halves) by simply disabling bottom halves while invoking
netif_rx_internal(). The local_bh_enable() invocation will then invoke
pending softirqs only if the BH-disable counter drops to zero.

Eric is concerned about the overhead of BH-disable+enable especially in
regard to the loopback driver. As critical as this driver is, it will
receive a shortcut to avoid the additional overhead which is not needed.

Add a local_bh_disable() section in netif_rx() to ensure softirqs are
handled if needed.
Provide __netif_rx() which does not disable BH and has a lockdep assert
to ensure that interrupts are disabled. Use this shortcut in the
loopback driver and in drivers/net/*.c.
Make netif_rx_ni() and netif_rx_any_context() invoke netif_rx() so they
can be removed once they are no more users left.

The preempt_disable() () section was introduced in commit
    cece1945 ("net: disable preemption before call smp_processor_id()")

and adds it in case this function is invoked from preemtible context and
because get_cpu() later on as been added.

The get_cpu() usage was added in commit
    b0e28f1e ("net: netif_rx() must disable preemption")

because ip_dev_loopback_xmit() invoked netif_rx() with enabled preemption
causing a warning in smp_processor_id(). The function netif_rx() should
only be invoked from an interrupt context which implies disabled
preemption. The commit
   e30b38c2 ("ip: Fix ip_dev_loopback_xmit()")

was addressing this and replaced netif_rx() with in netif_rx_ni() in
ip_dev_loopback_xmit().

Based on the discussion on the list, the former patch (b0e28f1e)
should not have been applied only the latter (e30b38c2).

Remove get_cpu() and preempt_disable() since the function is supposed to
be invoked from context with stable per-CPU pointers. Bottom halves have
to be disabled at this point because the function may raise softirqs
which need to be processed.

The status of support for RDMA is currently being tracked with two
separate status flags. This is unnecessary with the current state of
the driver.

Simplify status tracking down to a single flag.

Rename the helper function to denote the RDMA specific status and
universally use the helper function to test the status bit.
