Implement the ethtool APIs for attaching L2/L3/L4 based flow steering rules to the netdevice RX rings. Added set_rxnfc callback and enhanced the existing get_rxnfc callback.

The device managed flow steering API has three promiscuous modes: 1. Uplink - captures all the packets that arrive to the port. 2. Allmulti - captures all multicast packets arriving to the port. 3. Function port - for future use, this mode is not implemented yet. Use these modes with the flow_attach and flow_detach firmware commands according to the promiscuous state of the netdevice.

As with other device resources, the resource tracker is needed for supporting device managed flow steering rules under SRIOV: make sure virtual functions delete only rules created by them, and clean all rules attached by a crashed VF.

The driver is modified to support three operation modes. If supported by firmware use the device managed flow steering API, that which we call device managed steering mode. Else, if the firmware supports the B0 steering mode use it, and finally, if none of the above, use the A0 steering mode. When the steering mode is device managed, the code is modified such that L2 based rules set by the mlx4_en driver for Ethernet unicast and multicast, and the IB stack multicast attach calls done through the mlx4_ib driver are all routed to use the device managed API. When attaching rule using device managed flow steering API, the firmware returns a 64 bit registration id, which is to be provided during detach. Currently the firmware is always programmed during HCA initialization to use standard L2 hashing. Future work should be done to allow configuring the flow-steering hash function with common, non proprietary means.

Add support for firmware commands to attach/detach a new device managed steering mode. Such network steering rules allow the user to provide an L2/L3/L4 flow specification to the firmware and have the device to steer traffic that matches that specification to the provided QP.

Instead of checking the firmware supported steering mode in various places in the code, add a dedicated field in the mlx4 device capabilities structure which is written once during the initialization flow and read across the code. This also set the grounds for add new steering modes. Currently two modes are supported, and are named after the ConnectX HW versions A0 and B0. A0 steering uses mac_index, vlan_index and priority to steer traffic into pre-defined range of QPs. B0 steering uses Ethernet L2 hashing rules and is enabled only if the firmware supports both unicast and multicast B0 steering, The current steering modes are relevant for Ethernet traffic only, such that Infiniband steering remains untouched.

Currently, for every change in the net device multicast list, the driver detaches all the addresses from the HW device, and then attaches the updated list. This behavior is wrong from two aspects: first, it causes a load of firmware commands and second, there is period of time where the correct addresses are not attached, which turned into packet loss. To improve - a copy of the multicast list is saved by the driver. For every change in the multicast list, the multicast list copy is used to find the delta between those two lists and add or remove multicast addresses as needed.

Currently the IDs used by the resource tracker are of type u32, so far this was ok since all the different resources we were tracking could be encoded in 32bit. As a preparation step for tracking of resources whose IDs need > 32 bits such as network flow steering rules, who are 64 bit in size, move to use 64 bit based resource IDs.

Change the data structure used for managing the SRIOV resource tracking mechanism from radix tree to red-black tree. This is preparation step for supporting resource IDs which are 64bit long, such as network flow steering rules. Such IDs can't be used as radix-tree keys on 32bit architectures and hence the reason for the change.

If the user hasn't actually installed any custom rules, or fiddled with the default ones, don't go through the whole FIB rules layer. It's just pure overhead. Instead do what we do with CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES disabled, check the individual tables by hand, one by one. Also, move fib_num_tclassid_users into the ipv4 network namespace.

git commit 97cac082 (ipv6: Store route neighbour in rt6_info struct) added a neighbour pointer to rt6_info. Currently we don't initialize this pointer at allocation time. We assume this pointer to be valid if it is not a null pointer, so initialize it on allocation. Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This reverts the commit cdf49c28 which replaces lowpan '.ndo_set_mac_address' method by ethernet's one. Accorind to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, device has 8-byte length address, so this hook loses the last 2 bytes which may rise a compatibility problems with other IEEE 802.15.4 standard implementations.
