ice: one by one port representors creation

Michal Swiatkowski says:

Currently ice supports creating port representors only for VFs. For that
use case they can be created and removed in one step.

This patchset is refactoring current flow to support port representor
creation also for subfunctions and SIOV. In this case port representors
need to be created and removed one by one. Also, they can be added and
removed while other port representors are running.

To achieve that we need to change the switchdev configuration flow.
Three first patches are only cosmetic (renaming, removing not used code).
Next few ones are preparation for new flow. The most important one
is "add VF representor one by one". It fully implements new flow.

New type of port representor (for subfunction) will be introduced in
follow up patchset.

igc: Add support for physical + free-running timers

Vinicius Costa Gomes says:

The objective is to allow having functionality that depends on the
physical timer (taprio and ETF offloads, for example) and vclocks
operating together.

The "big" missing piece is the implementation of the .getcyclesx64()
function in igc, as i225/i226 have multiple timers, we use one of
those timers (timer 1) as a free-running (non adjustable) timer.

The complication is that only implementing .getcyclesx64() and nothing
else will break synchronization when using vclocks, as reading the clock
will retrieve the free-running value but timnestamps will come from the
adjustable timer. The solution is to modify "in one go" the timestamping
code to be able to retrieve the timestamp from the correct timer (if a
socket is "phc_bound" to a vclock the timestamp will come from the
free-running timer).

I was debating whether or not to do the adjustments for the internal latencies
for the free-running timestamps, decided to do the adjustments so the path
delay when using vclocks is similar to the one when using the physical clock.

One future improvement is to implement the .getcrosscycles() function.

Proper refcounts will always warn splat when something goes wrong,
be it underflow, saturation or object resurrection. As these are always
a source of bugs, use it in cls_u32 as a safeguard to prevent/catch issues.
Another benefit is that the refcount API self documents the code, making
clear when transitions to dead are expected.

For such an update we had to make minor adaptations on u32 to fit the refcount
API. First we set explicitly to '1' when objects are created, then the
objects are alive until a 1 -> 0 happens, which is then released appropriately.

The above made clear some redundant operations in the u32 code
around the root_ht handling that were removed. The root_ht is created
with a refcnt set to 1. Then when it's associated with tcf_proto it increments the refcnt to 2.
Throughout the entire code the root_ht is an exceptional case and can never be referenced,
therefore the refcnt never incremented/decremented.
Its lifetime is always bound to tcf_proto, meaning if you delete tcf_proto
the root_ht is deleted as well. The code made up for the fact that root_ht refcnt is 2 and did
a double decrement to free it, which is not a fit for the refcount API.

Even though refcount_t is implemented using atomics, we should observe
a negligible control plane impact.

mlxsw: Add support for new reset flow

Ido Schimmel writes:

This patchset changes mlxsw to issue a PCI reset during probe and
devlink reload so that the PCI firmware could be upgraded without a
reboot.

Unlike the old version of this patchset [1], in this version the driver
no longer tries to issue a PCI reset by triggering a PCI link toggle on
its own, but instead calls the PCI core to issue the reset.

The PCI APIs require the device lock to be held which is why patches

Patches #7 adds reset method quirk for NVIDIA Spectrum devices.

Patch #8 adds a debug level print in PCI core so that device ready delay
will be printed even if it is shorter than one second.

Patches #9-#11 are straightforward preparations in mlxsw.

Patch #12 finally implements the new reset flow in mlxsw.

Patch #13 adds PCI reset handlers in mlxsw to avoid user space from
resetting the device from underneath an unaware driver. Instead, the
driver is gracefully de-initialized before the PCI reset and then
initialized again after it.

Patch #14 adds a PCI reset selftest to make sure this code path does not
regress.

Implement reset_prepare() and reset_done() handlers that are invoked by
the PCI core before and after issuing a PCI reset, respectively.

Specifically, implement reset_prepare() by calling
mlxsw_core_bus_device_unregister() and reset_done() by calling
mlxsw_core_bus_device_register(). This is the same implementation as the
reload_{down,up}() devlink operations with the following differences:

1. The devlink instance is unregistered and then registered again after
   the reset.

2. A reset via the device's command interface (using MRSR register) is
   not issued during reset_done() as PCI core already issued a PCI
   reset.

The driver resets the device during probe and during a devlink reload.
The current reset method reloads the current firmware version or a
pending one, if one was previously flashed using devlink. However, the
current reset method does not result in a PCI hot reset, preventing the
PCI firmware from being upgraded, unless the system is rebooted.

To solve this problem, a new reset command (6) was implemented in the
firmware. Unlike the current command (1), after issuing the new command
the device will not start the reset immediately, but only after a PCI
hot reset.

Implement the new reset method by first verifying that it is supported
by the current firmware version by querying the Management Capabilities
Mask (MCAM) register. If supported, issue the new reset command (6) via
MRSR register followed by a PCI reset by calling
__pci_reset_function_locked().

Once the PCI firmware is operational, go back to the regular reset flow
and wait for the entire device to become ready. That is, repeatedly read
the "system_status" register from the BAR until a value of "FW_READY"
(0x5E) appears.

Currently, the time it took a PCI device to become ready after reset is
only printed if it was longer than 1000ms ('PCI_RESET_WAIT'). However,
for debugging purposes it is useful to know this time even if it was

Device drivers register with devlink from their probe routines (under
the device lock) by acquiring the devlink instance lock and calling
devl_register().

Drivers that support a devlink reload usually implement the
reload_{down, up}() operations in a similar fashion to their remove and

However, while the remove and probe routines are invoked with the device
lock held, the reload operations are only invoked with the devlink

The motivating use case for invoking the reload operations with the

function acquires the device lock. Instead, it needs to call
__pci_reset_function_locked which expects the device lock to be held.

To that end, adjust devlink to always acquire the device lock before the
devlink instance lock when performing a reload.

Do that when reload is explicitly triggered by user space by specifying
the 'DEVLINK_NL_FLAG_NEED_DEV_LOCK' flag in the pre_doit and post_doit
operations of the reload command.

A previous patch already handled the case where reload is invoked as

The netlink interface for major and minor version numbers doesn't actually

It reports a u32 that contains the (major, minor, update, alpha1)

For whatever reason, the u32 byte order was reversed (ntohl): maybe it was
assumed that the encoded value was a single big-endian u32, and alpha2 was
the minor version.

The correct way to get the supported NC-SI version from the network

     Bytes  | 31..24 | 23..16 | 15..8  | 7..0   |

    +-------+--------+--------+--------+--------+
    |            .... other stuff ....          |

The major, minor, and update fields are all binary-coded decimal (BCD)
encoded [2]. The spec provides examples below the Get Version ID response
format in section 8.4.44.1, but for practical purposes, this is an example
from a live network card:

    root@bmc:~# ncsi-util 0x15
    NC-SI Command Response:
    cmd: GET_VERSION_ID(0x15)
    Response: COMMAND_COMPLETED(0x0000)  Reason: NO_ERROR(0x0000)
    Payload length = 40

    20: 0xf1 0xf1 0xf0 0x00 <<<<<<<<< (major, minor, update, alpha1)
    24: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 <<<<<<<<< (_, _, _, alpha2)

    28: 0x6d 0x6c 0x78 0x30
    32: 0x2e 0x31 0x00 0x00
    36: 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
    40: 0x16 0x1d 0x07 0xd2
    44: 0x10 0x1d 0x15 0xb3
    48: 0x00 0x17 0x15 0xb3
    52: 0x00 0x00 0x81 0x19

This should be parsed as "1.1.0".

"f" in the upper-nibble means to ignore it, contributing zero.

If both nibbles are "f", I think the whole field is supposed to be ignored.
Major and minor are "required", meaning they're not supposed to be "ff",
but the update field is "optional" so I think it can be ff. I think the
simplest thing to do is just set the major and minor to zero instead of
juggling some conditional logic or something.

bcd2bin() from "include/linux/bcd.h" seems to assume both nibbles are 0-9,
so I've provided a custom BCD decoding function.

Alpha1 and alpha2 are ISO/IEC 8859-1 encoded, which just means ASCII
characters as far as I can tell, although the full encoding table for
non-alphabetic characters is slightly different (I think).

I imagine the alpha fields are just supposed to be alphabetic characters,
but I haven't seen any network cards actually report a non-zero value for
either.

If people wrote software against this netlink behavior, and were parsing
the major and minor versions themselves from the u32, then this would
definitely break their code.

Background:

1. CONFIG_NCSI_OEM_CMD_KEEP_PHY

If this is enabled, we send an extra OEM Intel command in the probe
sequence immediately after discovering a channel (e.g. after "Clear
Initial State").

2. CONFIG_NCSI_OEM_CMD_GET_MAC

If this is enabled, we send one of 3 OEM "Get MAC Address" commands from
Broadcom, Mellanox (Nvidida), and Intel in the *configuration* sequence
for a channel.

3. mellanox,multi-host (or mlx,multi-host)

Introduced by this patch:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20200108234341.2590674-1-vijaykhemka@fb.com/

Which was actually originally from cosmo.chou@quantatw.com:

https://github.com/facebook/openbmc-linux/commit/9f132a10ec48db84613519258cd8a317fb9c8f1b

Cosmo claimed that the Nvidia ConnectX-4 and ConnectX-6 NIC's don't
respond to Get Version ID, et. al in the probe sequence unless you send
the Set MC Affinity command first.

Problem Statement:

We've been using a combination of #ifdef code blocks and IS_ENABLED()
conditions to conditionally send these OEM commands.

It makes adding any new code around these commands hard to understand.

Solution:

In this patch, I just want to remove the conditionally compiled blocks
of code, and always use IS_ENABLED(...) to do dynamic control flow.

I don't think the small amount of code this adds to non-users of the OEM
Kconfigs is a big deal.

====================
net: Make timestamping selectable

Up until now, there was no way to let the user select the layer at
which time stamping occurs. The stack assumed that PHY time stamping
is always preferred, but some MAC/PHY combinations were buggy.

This series updates the default MAC/PHY default timestamping and aims to
allow the user to select the desired layer administratively.

Changes in v2:
- Move selected_timestamping_layer variable of the concerned patch.
- Use sysfs_streq instead of strmcmp.
- Use the PHY timestamp only if available.

Changes in v3:
- Expose the PTP choice to ethtool instead of sysfs.
  You can test it with the ethtool source on branch feature_ptp of:
  https://github.com/kmaincent/ethtool
- Added a devicetree binding to select the preferred timestamp.

Changes in v4:
- Move on to ethtool netlink instead of ioctl.
- Add a netdev notifier to allow packet trapping by the MAC in case of PHY
  time stamping.
- Add a PHY whitelist to not break the old PHY default time-stamping
  preference API.

Changes in v5:
- Update to ndo_hwstamp_get/set. This bring several new patches.
- Add few patches to make the glue.
- Convert macb to ndo_hwstamp_get/set.
- Add netlink specs description of new ethtool commands.
- Removed netdev notifier.
- Split the patches that expose the timestamping to userspace to separate
  the core and ethtool development.
- Add description of software timestamping.
- Convert PHYs hwtstamp callback to use kernel_hwtstamp_config.

Changes in v6:
- Few fixes from the reviews.
- Replace the allowlist to default_timestamp flag to know which phy is
  using old API behavior.
- Rename the timestamping layer enum values.
- Move to a simple enum instead of the mix between enum and bitfield.
- Update ts_info and ts-set in software timestamping case.

Changes in v7:
- Fix a temporary build error.
- Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231019-feature_ptp_netnext-v6-0-71affc27b0e5@bootlin.com

Change the API to select MAC default time stamping instead of the PHY.
Indeed the PHY is closer to the wire therefore theoretically it has less
delay than the MAC timestamping but the reality is different. Due to lower
time stamping clock frequency, latency in the MDIO bus and no PHC hardware
synchronization between different PHY, the PHY PTP is often less precise
than the MAC. The exception is for PHY designed specially for PTP case but
these devices are not very widespread. For not breaking the compatibility I
introduce a default_timestamp flag in phy_device that is set by the phy
driver to know we are using the old API behavior.

The phy_set_timestamp function is called at each call of phy_attach_direct.
In case of MAC driver using phylink this function is called when the
interface is turned up. Then if the interface goes down and up again the
last choice of timestamp will be overwritten by the default choice.
A solution could be to cache the timestamp status but it can bring other
issues. In case of SFP, if we change the module, it doesn't make sense to
blindly re-set the timestamp back to PHY, if the new module has a PHY with
mediocre timestamping capabilities.

Time stamping on network packets may happen either in the MAC or in
the PHY, but not both.  In preparation for making the choice
selectable, expose both the current layers via ethtool.

In accordance with the kernel implementation as it stands, the current
layer will always read as "phy" when a PHY time stamping device is
present. Future patches will allow changing the current layer
administratively.
