This patch utilizes the attention infrastructure to log additional
information that relates only to specific HW blocks.
For some of those HW blocks, it also stops automatically disabling the
attention generation as the attention is considered benign and thus
should only be logged; No fear of it flooding the system.

HW is capable of generating attentnions for a multitude of reasons,
but current driver is enabling attention generation only for management
firmware [required for link notifications].
This patch enables almost all of the possible reasons for HW attentions,
logging the HW block generating the attention and preventing further
attentions from that source [to prevent possible attention flood].
It also lays the infrastructure for additional exploration of the various
attentions.

mlx5 driver updates
This series includes some bug fixes and updates for the mlx5 core
and ethernet driver.
From Gal, two fixes that protects the update CQ moderation flows
when it is not allowed.
From Moshe, two fixes for the core and ethernet driver in
non-cached(NC) and write combining(WC) buffers mappings,
which prevents the driver from double memory mappings.
From Or, reduce the firmware command completion timeout.
From Tariq, several small trivial fixes.
Changes from v0:
- "Fix global UAR mapping" commit messages updated to explain ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WC usage.
- rebased to commit 8d3f2806f8 'Merge branch ethtool-ksettings'
Changes from v1:
- Removed ARCH_HAS_IOREMAP_WC config flag from "Fix global UAR mapping" commit, as it was not accurate to use it.
- Squashed "Fix global UAR mapping" and "net/mlx5: Avoid double mapping of io mapped memory"
- Added more info for "Fix global UAR mapping" in commit message
Changes from v2:
- None. resubmission per Dave's request due to two parallel submissions to mlx5 driver.

Avoid double mapping of io mapped memory, Device page may be
mapped to non-cached(NC) or to write-combining(WC).
The code before this fix tries to map it both to WC and NC
contrary to what stated in Intel's software developer manual.
Here we remove the global WC mapping of all UARS
"dev->priv.bf_mapping", since UAR mapping should be decided
per UAR (e.g we want different mappings for EQs, CQs vs QPs).
Caller will now have to choose whether to map via
write-combining API or not.
mlx5e SQs will choose write-combining in order to perform
BlueFlame writes.

net_sched: Add support for IFE action
As agreed at netconf in Seville, here's the patch finally (1 year
was just too long to wait for an ethertype. Now we are just going
have the user configure one).
Described in netdev01 paper:
"Distributing Linux Traffic Control Classifier-Action Subsystem"
Authors: Jamal Hadi Salim and Damascene M. Joachimpillai
The original motivation and deployment of this work was to horizontally
scale packet processing at scope of a chasis or rack. This means one
could take a tc policy and split it across machines connected over
L2. The paper refers to this as "pipeline stage indexing". Other
use cases which evolved out of the original intent include but are
not limited to carrying OAM information, carrying exception handling
metadata, carrying programmed authentication and authorization information,
encapsulating programmed compliance information, service IDs etc.
Read the referenced paper for more details.
The architecture allows for incremental updates for new metadatum support
to cover different use cases.
This patch set includes support for basic skb metadatum.
Followup patches will have more examples of metadata and other features.
v4 changes:
Integrate more feedback from Cong
v3 changes:
Integrate with the new namespace changes
Remove skbhash and queue mapping metadata (but keep their claim for ids)
Integrate feedback from Cong
Integrate feedback from Daniel
v2 changes:
Remove module option for an upper bound of metadata

This action allows for a sending side to encapsulate arbitrary metadata
which is decapsulated by the receiving end.
The sender runs in encoding mode and the receiver in decode mode.
Both sender and receiver must specify the same ethertype.
At some point we hope to have a registered ethertype and we'll
then provide a default so the user doesnt have to specify it.
For now we enforce the user specify it.
Lets show example usage where we encode icmp from a sender towards
a receiver with an skbmark of 17; both sender and receiver use
ethertype of 0xdead to interop.
YYYY: Lets start with Receiver-side policy config:
xxx: add an ingress qdisc

xxx: packet, then match it here and continue to the next rule at prio 4

This set adds support for temporary router port which doesn't depend only

Allow for more multicast router port information to be dumped such as
timer and type attributes. For that that purpose we need to extend the
MDBA_ROUTER_PORT attribute similar to how it was done for the mdb entries
recently. The new format is thus:
[MDBA_ROUTER_PORT] = { <- nested attribute
u32 ifindex <- router port ifindex for user-space compatibility
[MDBA_ROUTER_PATTR attributes]
}
This way it remains compatible with older users (they'll simply retrieve
the u32 in the beginning) and new users can parse the remaining
attributes. It would also allow to add future extensions to the router
port without breaking compatibility.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: implement VLAN filtering
This patchset fixes hardware bridging for non 802.1Q aware systems.
The mv88e6xxx DSA driver currently depends on CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q and
CONFIG_BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING enabled for correct bridging between switch ports.
Patch 1/9 adds support for the VLAN filtering switchdev attribute in DSA.
Patchs 2/9 and 3/9 add helper functions for the following patches.
Patchs 4/9 to 6/9 assign dynamic address databases to VLANs, ports, and
bridge groups (the lowest available FID is cleared and assigned), and thus
restore support for per-port FDB operations.
Patchs 7/9 to 9/9 refine ports isolation and setup 802.1Q on user demand.
With this patchset, ports get correctly bridged and the driver behaves as
expected, with or without 802.1Q support.
With CONFIG_VLAN_8021Q enabled, setting a default PVID to the bridge correctly
propagates the corresponding VLAN, in addition to the hardware bridging:
# echo 42 > /sys/class/net/<bridge>/bridge/default_pvid
But considering CONFIG_BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING enabled, the hardware VLAN
filtering is enabled on all bridge members only when the user requests it:
# echo 1 > /sys/class/net/<bridge>/bridge/vlan_filtering

Now that ports isolation is correctly configured when joining or leaving

The In Chip Port Based VLAN Table contains bits used to restrict which
output ports this input port can send frames to.
With the VLAN filtering enabled, these tables work in conjunction with
the VLAN Table Unit to allow egressing frames.
In order to remove the current dependency to BRIDGE_VLAN_FILTERING for
basic hardware bridging to work, it is necessary to restore a fine
control of each port's VLANTable, on setup and when a port joins or

Introduce devlink interface and first drivers to use it
There a is need for some userspace API that would allow to expose things
that are not directly related to any device class like net_device of
ib_device, but rather chip-wide/switch-ASIC-wide stuff.
Use cases:
1) get/set of port type (Ethernet/InfiniBand)
2) setting up port splitters - split port into multiple ones and squash again,
enables usage of splitter cable
3) setting up shared buffers - shared among multiple ports within
one chip (work in progress)
4) configuration of switch wide properties - resources division etc - This will
allow to pass configuration that is unacceptable to be passed as
a module option.
First patch of this set introduces a new generic Netlink based interface,
called "devlink". It is similar to nl80211 model and it is heavily
influenced by it, including the API definition. The devlink introduction patch
implements use cases 1) and 2). Other 2 are in development atm and will
be addressed by follow-ups.
It is very convenient for drivers to use devlink, as you can see in other
patches in this set.
Counterpart for devlink is userspace tool for now called "dl". Command line
interface and outputs are derived from "ip" tool so it should be easy
for users to get used to it.
It is available here as a standalone tool for now:
https://github.com/jpirko/devlink
After this is merge in kernel, I will include the "dl" or "devlink" tool
into iproute2 toolset.
Port type setting example:
myhost:~$ dl help
Usage: dl [ OPTIONS ] OBJECT { COMMAND | help }
where OBJECT := { dev | port | monitor }
OPTIONS := { -v/--verbose }
myhost:~$ dl dev help
Usage: dl dev show [DEV]
myhost:~$ dl dev show
pci/0000:01:00.0
myhost:~$ dl port help
Usage: dl port show [DEV/PORT_INDEX]

Allow a user to split or unsplit a port using the newly introduced
devlink ops.
Once split, the original netdev is destroyed and 2 or 4 others are
created, according to user configuration. The new ports are like any
other port, with the sole difference of supporting a lower maximum
speed. When unsplit, the reverse process takes place.

When splitting and unsplitting we'll destroy usable ports on the fly, so
mark them using a NULL pointer to indicate that their local port number
is free and can be re-used.

The port netdevs are each associated with a different local port number
in the device. These local ports are grouped into groups of 4 (e.g.
(1-4), (5-8)) called clusters. The cluster constitutes the one of two
possible modules they can be mapped to. This mapping is board-specific
and done by the device's firmware during init.
When splitting a port by 4, the device requires us to first unmap all
the ports in the cluster and then map each to a single lane in the module
associated with the port netdev used as the handle for the operation.
This means that two port netdevs will disappear, as only 100Gb/s (4
lanes) ports can be split and we are guaranteed to have two of these
((1, 3), (5, 7) etc.) in a cluster.
When unsplit occurs we need to reinstantiate the two original 100Gb/s
ports and map each to its origianl module. Therefore, during driver init
store the initial local port to module mapping, so it can be used later
during unsplitting.
Note that a by 2 split doesn't require us to store the mapping, as we
only need to reinstantiate one port whose module is known.

When splitting a port we replace it with 2 or 4 other ports. To be able
to do that we need to remove the original port netdev and unmap it from
its module. However, we first mark it as disabled, as active ports
cannot be unmapped.

So far, there has been an mlx4-specific sysfs file allowing user to
change port type to either Ethernet of InfiniBand. This is very
inconvenient.
Allow to expose the same ability to set port type in a generic way
using devlink interface.

Introduce devlink infrastructure for drivers to register and expose to
userspace via generic Netlink interface.
There are two basic objects defined:
devlink - one instance for every "parent device", for example switch ASIC
devlink port - one instance for every physical port of the device.
This initial portion implements basic get/dump of objects to userspace.
Also, port splitter and port type setting is implemented.
