      We no longer require a check for cxgb4 to be MASTER
      when configuring SRIOV, It was required when we had
      module parameter to instantiate vf.

      When resolving a path that the packet will take after being encapsulated
      in mirror-to-gretap scenarios, one of the devices en route could be a
      LAG. In that case, mirror to first up slave that corresponds to a front

      sched: cls: enable verbose logging · 81c7288b
      Marcelo Ricardo Leitner authored
      Currently, when the rule is not to be exclusively executed by the
      hardware, extack is not passed along and offloading failures don't
      get logged. The idea was that hardware failures are okay because the
      rule will get executed in software then and this way it doesn't confuse
      unware users.
      
      But this is not helpful in case one needs to understand why a certain
      rule failed to get offloaded. Considering it may have been a temporary
      failure, like resources exceeded or so, reproducing it later and knowing
      that it is triggering the same reason may be challenging.
      
      The ultimate goal is to improve Open vSwitch debuggability when using
      flower offloading.
      
      This patch adds a new flag to enable verbose logging. With the flag set,
      extack will be passed to the driver, which will be able to log the
      error. As the operation itself probably won't fail (not because of this,
      at least), current iproute will already log it as a Warning.
      
      The flag is generic, so it can be reused later. No need to restrict it
      just for HW offloading. The command line will follow the syntax that
      tc-ebpf already uses, tc ... [ verbose ] ... , and extend its meaning.
      
      For example:
      # ./tc qdisc add dev p7p1 ingress
      # ./tc filter add dev p7p1 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 1 \
      	flower verbose \
      	src_mac ed:13:db:00:00:00 dst_mac 01:80:c2:00:00:d0 \
      	src_ip 56.0.0.0 dst_ip 55.0.0.0 action drop
      Warning: TC offload is disabled on net device.
      # echo $?
      0
      # ./tc filter add dev p7p1 parent ffff: protocol ip prio 1 \
      	flower \
      	src_mac ff:13:db:00:00:00 dst_mac 01:80:c2:00:00:d0 \
      	src_ip 56.0.0.0 dst_ip 55.0.0.0 action drop

      Chen-Yu Tsai says:
      
      ====================
      net: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: Support R40
      
      This is a resend of the patches for net-next split out from my R40
      Ethernet support v2 series, as requested by David Miller. The arm-soc
      bits will follow, once I rework the A64 system controller compatible.
      
      Patches 1, 2, and 3 clean up the dwmac-sun8i binding.
      
      Patch 4 adds device tree binding for Allwinner R40's Ethernet
      controller.
      
      Patch 5 converts regmap access of the syscon region in the dwmac-sun8i
      driver to regmap_field, in anticipation of different field widths on
      the R40.
      
      Patch 6 introduces custom plumbing in the dwmac-sun8i driver to fetch
      a regmap from another device, by looking up said device via a phandle,
      then getting the regmap associated with that device.
      
      Patch 7 adds support for different or absent TX/RX delay chain ranges
      to the dwmac-sun8i driver.
      
      Patch 8 adds support for the R40's ethernet controller.
      
      Excerpt from original cover letter:
      
      Changes since v1:
      
        - Default to fetching regmap from device pointed to by syscon phandle,
          and falling back to syscon API if that fails.
      
        - Dropped .syscon_from_dev field in device data as a result of the
          previous change.
      
        - Added a large comment block explaining the first change.
      
        - Simplified description of syscon property in sun8i-dwmac binding.
      
        - Regmap now only exposes the EMAC/GMAC register, but retains the
          offset within its address space.
      
        - Added patches for A64, which reuse the same sun8i-dwmac changes.
      
      This series adds support for the DWMAC based Ethernet controller found
      on the Allwinner R40 SoC. The controller is either a DWMAC clone or
      DWMAC core with its registers rearranged. This is already supported by
      the dwmac-sun8i driver. The glue layer control registers, unlike other
      sun8i family SoCs, is not in the system controller region, but in the
      clock control unit, like with the older A20 and A31 SoCs.
      
      While we reuse the bindings for dwmac-sun8i using a syscon phandle
      reference, we need some custom plumbing for the clock driver to export
      a regmap that only allows access to the GMAC register to the dwmac-sun8i
      driver. An alternative would be to allow drivers to register custom
      syscon devices with their own regmap and locking.

      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      The Allwinner R40 SoC has the EMAC controller supported by dwmac-sun8i.
      It is named "GMAC", while EMAC refers to the 10/100 Mbps Ethernet

      the R40 has the glue layer controls in the clock control unit (CCU),
      with a reduced RX delay chain, and no TX delay chain.
      
      This patch adds support for it using the framework laid out by previous
      patches to map the differences.

      net: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: Support different ranges for TX/RX delay chains · 7b270b72
      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      On the R40 SoC, the RX delay chain only has a range of 0~7 (hundred
      picoseconds), instead of 0~31. Also the TX delay chain is completely
      absent.
      
      This patch adds support for different ranges by adding per-compatible
      maximum values in the variant data. A maximum of 0 indicates that the
      delay chain is not supported or absent.

      net: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: Allow getting syscon regmap from external device · 49a06cae
      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      On the Allwinner R40 SoC, the "GMAC clock" register is in the CCU
      address space. Using a standard syscon to access it provides no
      coordination with the CCU driver for register access. Neither does
      it prevent this and other drivers from accessing other, maybe critical,
      clock control registers. On other SoCs, the register is in the "system
      control" address space, which might also contain controls for mapping
      SRAM to devices or the CPU. This hardware has the same issues.
      
      Instead, for these types of setups, we let the device containing the
      control register create a regmap tied to it. We can then get the device
      from the existing syscon phandle, and retrieve the regmap with
      dev_get_regmap().

      net: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: Use regmap_field for syscon register access · 25ae15fb
      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      On the Allwinner R40, the "GMAC clock" register is located in the CCU
      block, at a different register address than the other SoCs that have
      it in the "system control" block.
      
      This patch converts the use of regmap to regmap_field for mapping and
      accessing the syscon register, so we can have the register address in
      the variants data, and not in the actual register manipulation code.
      
      This patch only converts regmap_read() and regmap_write() calls to
      regmap_field_read() and regmap_field_write() calls. There are some
      places where it might make sense to switch to regmap_field_update_bits(),
      but this is not done here to keep the patch simple.

      dt-bindings: net: dwmac-sun8i: simplify description of syscon property · a6fe692e
      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      The syscon property is used to point to the device that holds the glue
      layer control register known as the "EMAC (or GMAC) clock register".
      
      We do not need to explicitly list what compatible strings are needed, as
      this information is readily available in the user manuals. Also the
      "syscon" device type is more of an implementation detail. There are many
      ways to access a register not in a device's address range, the syscon
      interface being the most generic and unrestricted one.
      
      Simplify the description so that it says what it is supposed to
      describe.

      dt-bindings: net: dwmac-sun8i: Clean up clock delay chain descriptions · a4a78a97
      Chen-Yu Tsai authored
      The clock delay chains found in the glue layer for dwmac-sun8i are only
      used with RGMII PHYs. They are not intended for non-RGMII PHYs, such as
      MII external PHYs or the internal PHY. Also, a recent SoC has a smaller
      range of possible values for the delay chain.
      
      This patch reformats the delay chain section of the device tree binding
      to make it clear that the delay chains only apply to RGMII PHYs, and
      make it easier to add the R40-specific bits later.

      ====================
      kernel: add support to collect hardware logs in crash recovery kernel
      
      On production servers running variety of workloads over time, kernel
      panic can happen sporadically after days or even months. It is
      important to collect as much debug logs as possible to root cause
      and fix the problem, that may not be easy to reproduce. Snapshot of
      underlying hardware/firmware state (like register dump, firmware
      logs, adapter memory, etc.), at the time of kernel panic will be very
      helpful while debugging the culprit device driver.
      
      This series of patches add new generic framework that enable device
      drivers to collect device specific snapshot of the hardware/firmware
      state of the underlying device in the crash recovery kernel. In crash
      recovery kernel, the collected logs are added as elf notes to
      /proc/vmcore, which is copied by user space scripts for post-analysis.
      
      The sequence of actions done by device drivers to append their device
      specific hardware/firmware logs to /proc/vmcore are as follows:
      
      1. During probe (before hardware is initialized), device drivers
      register to the vmcore module (via vmcore_add_device_dump()), with
      callback function, along with buffer size and log name needed for
      firmware/hardware log collection.
      
      2. vmcore module allocates the buffer with requested size. It adds
      an elf note and invokes the device driver's registered callback
      function.
      
      3. Device driver collects all hardware/firmware logs into the buffer
      and returns control back to vmcore module.
      
      The device specific hardware/firmware logs can be seen as elf notes
      with note type 0x700, as shown below:
      
      Displaying notes found at file offset 0x00001000 with length 0x040032c0:

      Patch 1 adds API to vmcore module to allow drivers to register callback
      to collect the device specific hardware/firmware logs.  The logs will
      be added to /proc/vmcore as elf notes.
      
      Patch 2 updates read and mmap logic to append device specific hardware/
      firmware logs as elf notes.
      
      Patch 3 shows a cxgb4 driver example using the API to collect
      hardware/firmware logs in crash recovery kernel, before hardware is
      initialized.
      
      Thanks,
      Rahul

      vmcore: append device dumps to vmcore as elf notes · 7efe48df
      Rahul Lakkireddy authored
      Update read and mmap logic to append device dumps as additional notes
      before the other elf notes. We add device dumps before other elf notes
      because the other elf notes may not fill the elf notes buffer
      completely and we will end up with zero-filled data between the elf
      notes and the device dumps. Tools will then try to decode this
      zero-filled data as valid notes and we don't want that. Hence, adding
      device dumps before the other elf notes ensure that zero-filled data
      can be avoided. This also ensures that the device dumps and the
      other elf notes can be properly mmaped at page aligned address.
      
      Incorporate device dump size into the total vmcore size. Also update
      offsets for other program headers after the device dumps are added.

      vmcore: add API to collect hardware dump in second kernel · 2724273e
      Rahul Lakkireddy authored
      The sequence of actions done by device drivers to append their device
      specific hardware/firmware logs to /proc/vmcore are as follows:
      
      1. During probe (before hardware is initialized), device drivers
      register to the vmcore module (via vmcore_add_device_dump()), with
      callback function, along with buffer size and log name needed for
      firmware/hardware log collection.
      
      2. vmcore module allocates the buffer with requested size. It adds
      an Elf note and invokes the device driver's registered callback
      function.
      
      3. Device driver collects all hardware/firmware logs into the buffer
      and returns control back to vmcore module.
      
      Ensure that the device dump buffer size is always aligned to page size
      so that it can be mmaped.
      
      Also, rename alloc_elfnotes_buf() to vmcore_alloc_buf() to make it more
      generic and reserve NT_VMCOREDD note type to indicate vmcore device
      dump.

      i40evf: Fix a hardware reset support in VF driver · 27392e57
      Paweł Jabłoński authored
      This patch fixes a hardware reset support in VF driver.
      It is needed because when a hardware reset is detected
      adapter->state is in __I40EVF_RESETTING state before
      i40evf_reset_task is called. Without this patch
      unloading VF driver after a hardware reset ends
      with a system crash.

      i40e: free the skb after clearing the bitlock · c79756cb
      Jacob Keller authored
      In commit bbc4e7d2 ("i40e: fix race condition with PTP_TX_IN_PROGRESS
      bits") we modified the code which handles Tx timestamps so that we would
      clear the progress bit as soon as possible.
      
      A later commit 0bc0706b ("i40e: check for Tx timestamp timeouts during
      watchdog") introduced similar code for detecting and handling cleanup of
      a blocked Tx timestamp. This code did not use the same pattern for cleaning
      up the skb.
      
      Update this code to wait to free the skb until after the bit lock is
      free, by first setting the ptp_tx_skb to NULL and clearing the lock.

      i40evf: remove MAX_QUEUES and just use I40EVF_MAX_REQ_QUEUES · aa4a0654
      Jacob Keller authored
      We don't really need to have separate definitions for MAX_QUEUES and
      I40EVF_MAX_REQ_QUEUES, since we'll always be limited by how many queues
      we request anyways. If we haven't enabled requesting the maximum number
      of queues, there's no reason to have our call to alloc_etherdev_mq
      actually pass the higher value, since we'd never enable those queues
      anyways.
