4cbdaf6d52 be2net: create RSS rings even in multi-channel configs
Changes from commit df505e were incorrectly over-written by commit 10ef9ab.
Fixing the same.

Change log of the original fix:
    Currently RSS rings are not created in a multi-channel config.
    RSS rings can be created on one (out of four) interfaces per port in a
    multi-channel config. Doing this insulates the driver from a FW bug wherin
    multi-channel config is wrongly reported even when not enabled. This also
    helps performance in a multi-channel config, as one interface per port gets
    RSS rings.

3f0a1b58ae forcedeth: prevent TX timeouts after reboot
This complements patch "net-forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX
pause on down link" which ensures that a lock-up sequence is not sent
to the NIC. Present patch ensures that if a NIC is already locked-up,
the driver will recover from it when initializing the device.

It does the equivalent of the following recovery sequence:
 - write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register
   NvRegTxPauseFrame
 - write NVREG_XMITCTL_START to eth1's register
   NvRegTransmitterControl
 - write 0 to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl
(this is at the heart of the "unbricking" sequence mentioned in patch
 "net-forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link")

Tested:
 - hardware is MCP55 device id 10de:0373 (rev a3), dual-port
 - reboot a kernel without any of patches mentioned
 - freeze the NIC (details on description for commit "net-forcedeth:
   fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link")
 - wait 5mn until ping hangs & TX timeout in dmesg
 - reboot on kernel with present patch
 - host is immediatly operational, no TX timeout

1ff39eb66b forcedeth: fix TX timeout caused by TX pause on down link
On some dual-port forcedeth devices such as MCP55 10de:0373 (rev a3),
when autoneg & TX pause are enabled while port is connected but
interface is down, the NIC will eventually freeze (TX timeouts,
network unreachable).

This patch ensures that TX pause is not configured in hardware when
interface is down. The TX pause request will be honored when interface
is later configured.

Tested:
 - hardware is MCP55 device id 10de:0373 (rev a3), dual-port
 - eth0 connected and UP, eth1 connected but DOWN
 - without this patch, following sequence would brick NIC:
      ifconfig eth0 down
      ifconfig eth1 up
      ifconfig eth1 down
      ethtool -A eth1 autoneg off rx on tx off
      ifconfig eth1 up
      ifconfig eth1 down
      ethtool -A eth1 autoneg on rx on tx on
      ifconfig eth1 up
      ifconfig eth1 down
      ifup eth0
      sleep 120  # or longer
      ethtool eth1
   Just in case, sequence to un-brick:
      ifconfig eth0 down
      ethtool -A eth1 autoneg off rx on tx off
      ifconfig eth1 up
      ifconfig eth1 down
      ifup eth0
 - with this patch: no TX timeout after "bricking" sequence above

Details:
 - The following register accesses have been identified as the ones
   causing the NIC to freeze in "bricking" sequence above:
    - write NVREG_TX_PAUSEFRAME_ENABLE_V1 to eth1's register NvRegTxPauseFrame
    - write NVREG_MISC1_PAUSE_TX | NVREG_MISC1_FORCE to eth1's register NvRegMisc1
    - write 0 to eth1's register NvRegTransmitterControl
   This is what this patch avoids.

7153f623ea sfc: Fix reset vs probe/remove/PM races involving efx_nic::state
We try to defer resets while the device is not READY, but we're not
doing this quite correctly.  In particular, changes to efx_nic::state
are documented as serialised by the RTNL lock, but they aren't.

1. We check whether a reset was requested during probe (suggesting
broken hardware) before we allow requested resets to be scheduled.
This leaves a window where a requested reset would be deferred
indefinitely.

2. Although we cancel the reset work item during device removal,
there are still later operations that can cause it to be scheduled
again.  We need to check the state before scheduling it.

3. Since the state can change between scheduling and running of
the work item, we still need to check it there, and we need to
do so *after* acquiring the RTNL lock which serialises state
changes.

4. We must cancel the reset work item during device removal, if the
state could ever have been READY.  This wasn't done in some of the
failure paths from efx_pci_probe().  Move the cancellation to
efx_pci_remove_main().

8b7325b4e2 sfc: Never try to stop and start a NIC that is disabled
efx_change_mtu() and efx_realloc_channels() each stop and start much
of the NIC, even if it has been disabled.  Since efx_start_all() is a
no-op when the NIC is disabled, this is probably harmless in the case
of efx_change_mtu(), but efx_realloc_channels() also reenables
interrupts which could be a bad thing to do.

Change efx_start_all() and efx_start_interrupts() to assert that the
NIC is not disabled, but make efx_stop_interrupts() do nothing if the
NIC is disabled (since it is already stopped), consistent with
efx_stop_all().

Update comments for efx_start_all() and efx_stop_all() to describe
their purpose and preconditions more accurately.

Add a common function to check and log if the NIC is disabled, and use
it in efx_net_open(), efx_change_mtu() and efx_realloc_channels().

f7251a9ce9 sfc: Simplify TSO header buffer allocation
TSO header buffers contain a control structure immediately followed by
the packet headers, and are kept on a free list when not in use.  This
complicates buffer management and tends to result in cache read misses
when we recycle such buffers (particularly if DMA-coherent memory
requires caches to be disabled).

Replace the free list with a simple mapping by descriptor index.  We
know that there is always a payload descriptor between any two
descriptors with TSO header buffers, so we can allocate only one
such buffer for each two descriptors.

While we're at it, use a standard error code for allocation failure,
not -1.

The helper functions which translate IEEE MDIO Manageable Device (MMD)

drivers other than those in PHYLIB (e.g. e1000e in a follow-on patch).

In the same fashion as similar translation functions in linux/mii.h, move
these functions from the PHYLIB core to the linux/mdio.h header file so the
code will not have to be duplicated in each driver needing MMD-to-ethtool
(and vice-versa) translations.  The function and some variable names have
been renamed to be more descriptive.

Not tested on the only hardware that currently calls the related functions,
stmmac, because I don't have access to any.  Has been compile tested and
the translations have been tested on a locally modified version of e1000e.

6b923cb718 bonding: support for IPv6 transmit hashing
Currently the "bonding" driver does not support load balancing outgoing
traffic in LACP mode for IPv6 traffic. IPv4 (and TCP or UDP over IPv4)
are currently supported; this patch adds transmit hashing for IPv6 (and
TCP or UDP over IPv6), bringing IPv6 up to par with IPv4 support in the
bonding driver. In addition, bounds checking has been added to all
transmit hashing functions.

The algorithm chosen (xor'ing the bottom three quads of the source and
destination addresses together, then xor'ing each byte of that result into
the bottom byte, finally xor'ing with the last bytes of the MAC addresses)
was selected after testing almost 400,000 unique IPv6 addresses harvested
from server logs. This algorithm had the most even distribution for both
big- and little-endian architectures while still using few instructions. Its
behavior also attempts to closely match that of the IPv4 algorithm.

The IPv6 flow label was intentionally not included in the hash as it appears
to be unset in the vast majority of IPv6 traffic sampled, and the current
algorithm not using the flow label already offers a very even distribution.

Fragmented IPv6 packets are handled the same way as fragmented IPv4 packets,
ie, they are not balanced based on layer 4 information. Additionally,
IPv6 packets with intermediate headers are not balanced based on layer
4 information. In practice these intermediate headers are not common and
this should not cause any problems, and the alternative (a packet-parsing
loop and look-up table) seemed slow and complicated for little gain.

Pull networking update from David Miller:
 "A couple weeks of bug fixing in there.  The largest chunk is all the
  broken crap Amerigo Wang found in the netpoll layer."

 1) netpoll and it's users has several serious bugs:
    a) uses GFP_KERNEL with locks held
    b) interfaces requiring interrupts disabled are called with them
       enabled
    c) and vice versa
    d) VLAN tag demuxing, as per all other RX packet input paths, is not
       applied

    All from Amerigo Wang.

 2) Hopefully cure the ipv4 mapped ipv6 address TCP early demux bugs for
    good, from Neal Cardwell.

 3) Unlike AF_UNIX, AF_PACKET sockets don't set a default credentials
    when the user doesn't specify one explicitly during sendmsg().
    Instead we attach an empty (zero) SCM credential block which is
    definitely not what we want.  Fix from Eric Dumazet.

 4) IPv6 illegally invokes netdevice notifiers with RCU lock held, fix
    from Ben Hutchings.

 5) inet_csk_route_child_sock() checks wrong inet options pointer, fix
    from Christoph Paasch.

 6) When AF_PACKET is used for transmit, packet loopback doesn't behave
    properly when a socket fanout is enabled, from Eric Leblond.

 7) On bluetooth l2cap channel create failure, we leak the socket, from
    Jaganath Kanakkassery.

 8) Fix all the netprio file handling bugs found by Al Viro, from John
    Fastabend.

 9) Several error return and NULL deref bug fixes in networking drivers
    from Julia Lawall.

10) A large smattering of struct padding et al.  kernel memory leaks to
    userspace found of Mathias Krause.

11) Conntrack expections in netfilter can access an uninitialized timer,
    fix from Pablo Neira Ayuso.

12) Several netfilter SIP tracker bug fixes from Patrick McHardy.

13) IPSEC ipv6 routes are not initialized correctly all the time,
    resulting in an OOPS in inet_putpeer().  Also from Patrick McHardy.

14) Bridging does rcu_dereference() outside of RCU protected area, from
    Stephen Hemminger.

15) Fix routing cache removal performance regression when looking up
    output routes that have a local destination.  From Zheng Yan.

33dd7699ce carl9170: report A-MPDU status
Because the hardware reports whenever an frame
was either at the start, in the middle or at
the end of a A-MPDU, we can easily report the
information for radiotap.
