      ====================
      This set adds native eBPF support also to act_bpf and thus covers tc
      with eBPF in the classifier *and* action part.
      
      A link to iproute2 preview has been provided in patch 2 and the code
      will be pushed out after Stephen has processed the classifier part
      and helper bits for tc.
      
      This set depends on ced585c8 ("act_bpf: allow non-default TC_ACT
      opcodes as BPF exec outcome"), so a net into net-next merge would be
      required first. Hope that's fine by you, Dave. ;)

      act_bpf: add initial eBPF support for actions · a8cb5f55
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      This work extends the "classic" BPF programmable tc action by extending
      its scope also to native eBPF code!
      
      Together with commit e2e9b654 ("cls_bpf: add initial eBPF support
      for programmable classifiers") this adds the facility to implement fully
      flexible classifier and actions for tc that can be implemented in a C
      subset in user space, "safely" loaded into the kernel, and being run in
      native speed when JITed.
      
      Also, since eBPF maps can be shared between eBPF programs, it offers the
      possibility that cls_bpf and act_bpf can share data 1) between themselves
      and 2) between user space applications. That means that, f.e. customized
      runtime statistics can be collected in user space, but also more importantly
      classifier and action behaviour could be altered based on map input from
      the user space application.
      
      For the remaining details on the workflow and integration, see the cls_bpf
      commit e2e9b654. Preliminary iproute2 part can be found under [1].

      ebpf: add sched_act_type and map it to sk_filter's verifier ops · 94caee8c
      Daniel Borkmann authored
      In order to prepare eBPF support for tc action, we need to add
      sched_act_type, so that the eBPF verifier is aware of what helper
      function act_bpf may use, that it can load skb data and read out
      currently available skb fields.
      
      This is bascially analogous to 96be4325 ("ebpf: add sched_cls_type
      and map it to sk_filter's verifier ops").
      
      BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_CLS and BPF_PROG_TYPE_SCHED_ACT need to be
      separate since both will have a different set of functionality in
      future (classifier vs action), thus we won't run into ABI troubles
      when the point in time comes to diverge functionality from the
      classifier.
      
      The future plan for act_bpf would be that it will be able to write
      into skb->data and alter selected fields mirrored in struct __sk_buff.
      
      For an initial support, it's sufficient to map it to sk_filter_ops.

      Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net · 0fa74a4b

      Conflicts:
      	drivers/net/ethernet/emulex/benet/be_main.c
      	net/core/sysctl_net_core.c
      	net/ipv4/inet_diag.c
      
      The be_main.c conflict resolution was really tricky.  The conflict
      hunks generated by GIT were very unhelpful, to say the least.  It
      split functions in half and moved them around, when the real actual
      conflict only existed solely inside of one function, that being
      be_map_pci_bars().
      
      So instead, to resolve this, I checked out be_main.c from the top
      of net-next, then I applied the be_main.c changes from 'net' since
      the last time I merged.  And this worked beautifully.
      
      The inet_diag.c and sysctl_net_core.c conflicts were simple
      overlapping changes, and were easily to resolve.

      Tom Lendacky says:
      
      ====================
      amd-xgbe: AMD XGBE driver updates 2015-03-19
      
      The following series of patches includes functional updates and changes
      to the driver.
      
      - Use the phydev->advertising field instead of the phydev->supported
        field when configuring for auto-negotiation, etc.
      - Use the phy_driver flags field for setting the transceiver type
        instead of hardcoding it in the ethtool support.
      - Provide an auto-negotiation timeout check
      - Clarify the Tx/Rx queue information messages
      - Use the new DMA memory barrier operations
      - Set the device DMA mask based on what the hardware reports
      - Remove the software implementation of Tx coalescing
      - Fix the reporting of the Rx coalescing value
      - Use napi_alloc_skb when allocating an SKB in softirq
      
      This patch series is based on net-next.
      
      Changes from v2:
      - Use jiffies instead of timespec for the auto-negotiation timeout check
      - Remove the Rx path SKB allocation re-work patch since we should only
        inline the headers and the current code guards better against any
        hardware bugs
      
      Changes from v1:
      - Default to 32-bit DMA width (minimum supported) if hardware returns
        an unexpected DMA width value

      amd-xgbe: Fix Rx coalescing reporting · 4a57ebcc
      Lendacky, Thomas authored
      The Rx coalescing value is internally converted from usecs to a value
      that the hardware can use. When reporting the Rx coalescing value, this
      internal value is converted back to usecs. During the conversion from
      and back to usecs some rounding occurs. So, for example, when setting an
      Rx usec of 30, it will be reported as 29. Fix this reporting issue by
      keeping the original usec value and using that during reporting.

      amd-xgbe: Remove Tx coalescing · c635eaac
      Lendacky, Thomas authored
      The Tx coalescing support in the driver was a software implementation
      for something lacking in the hardware. Using hrtimers, the idea was to
      trigger a timer interrupt after having queued a packet for transmit.
      Unfortunately, as the timer value was lowered, the timer expired before
      the hardware actually did the transmit and so it was racey and resulted
      in unnecessary interrupts.
      
      Remove the Tx coalescing support and hrtimer and replace with a Tx timer
      that is used as a reclaim timer in case of inactivity.
