tcp_bbr: Improving TCP BBR performance for WiFi and cellular networks

Ack aggregation is quite prevalent with wifi, cellular and cable modem
link tchnologies, ACK decimation in middleboxes, and common offloading
techniques such as TSO and GRO, at end hosts. Previously, BBR was often
cwnd-limited in the presence of severe ACK aggregation, which resulted in
low throughput due to insufficient data in flight.

To achieve good throughput for wifi and other paths with aggregation, this
patch series implements an ACK aggregation estimator for BBR, which
estimates the maximum recent degree of ACK aggregation and adapts cwnd
based on it. The algorithm is further described by the following
presentation:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/101/materials/slides-101-iccrg-an-update-on-bbr-work-at-google-00

(1) A preparatory patch, which refactors bbr_target_cwnd for generic
    inflight provisioning.

(2) Implements BBR ack aggregation estimator and adapts cwnd based
    on measured degree of ACK aggregation.

Aggregation effects are extremely common with wifi, cellular, and cable
modem link technologies, ACK decimation in middleboxes, and LRO and GRO
in receiving hosts. The aggregation can happen in either direction,
data or ACKs, but in either case the aggregation effect is visible
to the sender in the ACK stream.

Previously BBR's sending was often limited by cwnd under severe ACK
aggregation/decimation because BBR sized the cwnd at 2*BDP. If packets
were acked in bursts after long delays (e.g. one ACK acking 5*BDP after
5*RTT), BBR's sending was halted after sending 2*BDP over 2*RTT, leaving
the bottleneck idle for potentially long periods. Note that loss-based
congestion control does not have this issue because when facing
aggregation it continues increasing cwnd after bursts of ACKs, growing
cwnd until the buffer is full.

To achieve good throughput in the presence of aggregation effects, this
algorithm allows the BBR sender to put extra data in flight to keep the
bottleneck utilized during silences in the ACK stream that it has evidence
to suggest were caused by aggregation.

A summary of the algorithm: when a burst of packets are acked by a
stretched ACK or a burst of ACKs or both, BBR first estimates the expected
amount of data that should have been acked, based on its estimated
bandwidth. Then the surplus ("extra_acked") is recorded in a windowed-max
filter to estimate the recent level of observed ACK aggregation. Then cwnd
is increased by the ACK aggregation estimate. The larger cwnd avoids BBR
being cwnd-limited in the face of ACK silences that recent history suggests
were caused by aggregation. As a sanity check, the ACK aggregation degree
is upper-bounded by the cwnd (at the time of measurement) and a global max
of BW * 100ms. The algorithm is further described by the following
presentation:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/meeting/101/materials/slides-101-iccrg-an-update-on-bbr-work-at-google-00

In our internal testing, we observed a significant increase in BBR
throughput (measured using netperf), in a basic wifi setup.
- Host1 (sender on ethernet) -> AP -> Host2 (receiver on wifi)
- 2.4 GHz -> BBR before: ~73 Mbps; BBR after: ~102 Mbps; CUBIC: ~100 Mbps
- 5.0 GHz -> BBR before: ~362 Mbps; BBR after: ~593 Mbps; CUBIC: ~601 Mbps

Also, this code is running globally on YouTube TCP connections and produced
significant bandwidth increases for YouTube traffic.

This is based on Ian Swett's max_ack_height_ algorithm from the
QUIC BBR implementation.

For all invalid states phy_start() basically was a no-op. All it did
was triggering a state machine run, but for all "running" states the
poll loop was active anyway. And if called from PHY_DOWN, the state
machine does nothing.

Introduce ENETC ethernet drivers

ENETC is a multi-port virtualized Ethernet controller supporting GbE
designs and Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) functionality.
ENETC is operating as an SR-IOV multi-PF capable Root Complex Integrated
Endpoint (RCIE).  As such, it contains multiple physical (PF) and virtual
(VF) PCIe functions, discoverable by standard PCI Express.

The patch series adds basic enablement for these otherwise standard
buffer descriptor (BD) ring based ethernet devices (PCIe PFs and VFs),
currently included in the 64-bit dual ARMv8 processors LS1028A SoC.
The driver is portable to 32-bit designs, and it's independent of CPU
endianness.

A ternary match table is used for RFS. If multiple entries in the table
match, the entry with the lowest numerical values index is chosen as the
matching entry.  Entries in the table are identified using an index
which takes a value from 0 to PRFSCAPR[NUM_RFS]-1 when accessed by the
PSI (PF).
Portions of the RFS table can be assigned to each SI by the PSI (PF)
driver in PSIaRFSCFGR.  Assignments are cumulative, the entries assigned
to SIn start after those assigned to SIn-1.  The total assignments to
all SIs must be equal to or less than the number available to the port
as found in PRFSCAPR.

For RSS, the Toeplitz hash function used requires two inputs, a 40B
random secret key that is supplied through the PRSSKR0-9 registers as well
as the relevant pieces of the packet header (n-tuple).  The 6 LSB bits of
the hash function result will then be used as a pointer to obtain the tag
referenced in the 64 entry indirection table.  The result will provide a
winning group which will be used to help route the received packet.

ENETC is a multi-port virtualized Ethernet controller supporting GbE

ENETC is operating as an SR-IOV multi-PF capable Root Complex Integrated
Endpoint (RCIE).  As such, it contains multiple physical (PF) and
virtual (VF) PCIe functions, discoverable by standard PCI Express.

Introduce basic PF and VF ENETC ethernet drivers.  The PF has access to
the ENETC Port registers and resources and makes the required privileged
configurations for the underlying VF devices.  Common functionality is
controlled through so called System Interface (SI) register blocks, PFs
and VFs own a SI each.  Though SI register blocks are almost identical,
there are a few privileged SI level controls that are accessible only to
PFs, and so the distinction is made between PF SIs (PSI) and VF SIs (VSI).
As such, the bulk of the code, including datapath processing, basic h/w
offload support and generic pci related configuration, is shared between
the 2 drivers and is factored out in common source files (i.e. enetc.c).

Major functionalities included (for both drivers):
MSI-X support for Rx and Tx processing, assignment of Rx/Tx BD ring pairs
to MSI-X entries, multi-queue support, Rx S/G (Rx frame fragmentation) and
jumbo frame (up to 9600B) support, Rx paged allocation and reuse, Tx S/G
support (NETIF_F_SG), Rx and Tx checksum offload, PF MAC filtering and
initial control ring support, VLAN extraction/ insertion, PF Rx VLAN
CTAG filtering, VF mac address config support, VF VLAN isolation support,
etc.
