This change fixes several issues found in ntuple filtering while I was
doing the ATR refactor.
Specifically I updated the masks to work correctly with the latest version
of ethtool, I cleaned up the exception handling and added detailed error
output when a filter is rejected, and corrected several bits that were set
incorrectly in ixgbe_type.h.
The previous version of this patch included a printk that was left over from
me fixing the filter setup. This patch does not include that printk.

is only a 1% increase in transactions per second though due to the fact

When disable the Rx logic globally, we would also want to disable the per Rx
queue receive logic by per queue Rx control register RXDCTL so no more DMA is
happening from the packet buffer to the receive buffer associated with the Rx
ring, before we start unmapping Rx ring receive buffer. The hardware may take
max of 100us before the corresponding Rx queue is really disabled. Added
ixgbe_disable_rx_queue() for this purpose.

RSC will flush its descriptors every time the interrupt throttle timer
expires. In addition there are known issues with RSC when the rx-usecs
value is set too low. As such we are forced to clear the RSC_ENABLED bit
and reset the adapter when the rx-usecs value is set too low.
However we do not need to clear the NETIF_F_LRO flag because it is used to
indicate that the user wants to leave the LRO feature enabled, and in fact
with this change we will now re-enable RSC as soon as the rx-usecs value is
increased and the flag is still set.

There is a small possibility that a reader gets incorrect values on 32
bit arches. SNMP applications could catch incorrect counters when a
32bit high part is changed by another stats consumer/provider.
One way to solve this is to add a rtnl_link_stats64 param to all
ndo_get_stats64() methods, and also add such a parameter to
dev_get_stats().
Rule is that we are not allowed to use dev->stats64 as a temporary
storage for 64bit stats, but a caller provided area (usually on stack)
Old drivers (only providing get_stats() method) need no changes.

ixgbe: enable extremely low latency
introduced a feature where LRO (called RSC on the hardware) was disabled
automatically when setting rx-usecs to 0 via ethtool. Some might not
like the fact that LRO was disabled automatically, but I'm fine with
that. What I don't like is that LRO/RSC is automatically enabled when
rx-usecs is set >0 via ethtool.
This would certainly be a problem if the device was used for forwarding
and it was determined that the low latency wasn't needed after the
device was already forwarding. I played around with saving the state of
LRO in the driver, but it just didn't seem worthwhile and would require
a small change to dev_disable_lro() that I did not like.
This patch simply leaves LRO disabled when setting rx-usecs >0 and
requires that the user enable it again. An extra informational message
will also now appear in the log so users can understand why LRO isn't
being enabled as they expect.
Inconsistency of LRO setting first noticed by Stanislaw Gruszka.

interrupt. This patch enables the feature of "override" when a
user sets rx-usecs to zero, the driver will respect that setting
over using RSC, and automatically disable RSC. If rx-usecs is
used to set the EITR value to 0, then the driver should disable
LRO (aka RSC) internally until EITR is set to non-zero again.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Disabling TSO can cause the dev_watchdog timer to be triggered because
when TSO is disabled netif_tx_stop_all_queues is called. If the watchdog
timer fires while the queues are stopped and traffic has not recently been
sent on a paticular queue this is falsly identified as a hang and
ndo_tx_timeout() is called. This is ocossionally seen during testing.
This removes the netif_tx_stop_all_queues() it is not needed. The scheduler
submits skb's with dev_hard_start_xmit(), this checks if netif_needs_gso and
if so it calls dev_gso_segment. Disabling TSO will cause dev_hard_start_xmit()
to do the gso processing. However ixgbe does not use the features flags to
determine if it needs to use tso or not instead it uses skb->gso_size so
ixgbe will process these frames correctly regardless of the netdev features
flag.

Here is an updated version, because ixgbe_get_ethtool_stats()
needs to call dev_get_stats() or "ethtool -S" wont give
correct tx_bytes/tx_packets values.
Several cpus can update netdev->stats.tx_bytes & netdev->stats.tx_packets
in parallel. In this case, TX stats are under estimated and false sharing
takes place.
After a pktgen session sending exactly 200000000 packets :
# ifconfig fiber0 | grep TX
TX packets:198501982 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
Multi queue devices should instead use txq->tx_bytes & txq->tx_packets
in their xmit() method (appropriate txq lock already held by caller, no
cache line miss), or use appropriate locking.
After patch, same pktgen session gives :
# ifconfig fiber0 | grep TX
TX packets:200000000 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
