The initial MAC address is retrieved from hardware if it's not

This disallows using the reserved hardware MAC address to avoid

====================
Add driver bpf hook for early packet drop and forwarding

This patch set introduces new infrastructure for programmatically
processing packets in the earliest stages of rx, as part of an effort
others are calling eXpress Data Path (XDP) [1]. Start this effort by
introducing a new bpf program type for early packet filtering, before
even an skb has been allocated.

Extend on this with the ability to modify packet data and send back out
on the same port.

Patch 1 adds an API for bulk bpf prog refcnt incrememnt.
Patch 2 introduces the new prog type and helpers for validating the bpf
  program. A new userspace struct is defined containing only data and
  data_end as fields, with others to follow in the future.
In patch 3, create a new ndo to pass the fd to supported drivers.
In patch 4, expose a new rtnl option to userspace.
In patch 5, enable support in mlx4 driver.
In patch 6, create a sample drop and count program. With single core,
  achieved ~20 Mpps drop rate on a 40G ConnectX3-Pro. This includes
  packet data access, bpf array lookup, and increment.
In patch 7, add a page recycle facility to mlx4 rx, enabled when xdp is
  active.
In patch 8, add the XDP_TX type to bpf.h
In patch 9, add helper in tx patch for writing tx_desc
In patch 10, add support in mlx4 for packet data write and forwarding
In patch 11, turn on packet write support in the bpf verifier
In patch 12, add a sample program for packet write and forwarding. With
  single core, achieved ~10 Mpps rewrite and forwarding.

v10:
 1/12: Add bulk refcnt api.
 5/12: Move prog from priv to ring. This attribute is still only set
   globally, but the path to finer granularity should be clear. No lock
   is taken, so some rings may operate on older programs for a time (one
   napi loop). Looked into options such as napi_synchronize, but they
   were deemed too slow (calls to msleep).
   Rename prog to xdp_prog. Add xdp_ring_num to help with accounting,
   used more heavily in later patches.
 7/12: Adjust to use per-ring xdp prog. Use priv->xdp_ring_num where
   before priv->prog was used to determine buffer allocations.
 9/12: Add cpu_to_be16 to vlan_tag in mxl4_en_xmit(). Remove unused variable
   from mlx4_en_xmit and unused params from build_inline_wqe.

v9:
 4/11: Add missing newline in en_err message.
 6/11: Move page_cache cleanup from mlx4_en_destroy_rx_ring to
   mlx4_en_deactivate_rx_ring. Move mlx4_en_moderation_update back to
   static. Remove calls to mlx4_en_alloc/free_resources in mlx4_xdp_set.
   Adopt instead the approach of mlx4_en_change_mtu to use a watchdog.
 9/11: Use a per-ring function pointer in tx to separate out the code
   for regular and recycle paths of tx completion handling. Add a helper
   function to init the recycle ring and callback, called just after
   activating tx. Remove extra tx ring resource requirement, and instead
   steal from the upper rings. This helps to avoid needing
   mlx4_en_alloc_resources. Add some hopefully meaningful error
   messages for the various error cases. Reverted some of the
   hard-to-follow logic that was accounting for the extra tx rings.

v8:
 1/11: Reduce WARN_ONCE to single line. Also, change act param of that
   function to u32 to match return type of bpf_prog_run_xdp.
 2/11: Clarify locking semantics in ndo comment.
 4/11: Add en_err warning in mlx4_xdp_set on num_frags/mtu violation.

v7:
 Addressing two of the major discussion points: return codes and ndo.
 The rest will be taken as todo items for separate patches.

 Add an XDP_ABORTED type, which explicitly falls through to DROP. The
 same result must be taken for the default case as well, as it is now
 well-defined API behavior.

 Merge ndo_xdp_* into a single ndo. The style is similar to
 ndo_setup_tc, but with less unidirectional naming convention. The IFLA
 parameter names are unchanged.

 TODOs:
 Add ethtool per-ring stats for aborted, default cases, maybe even drop
 and tx as well.
 Avoid duplicate dma sync operation in XDP_PASS case as mentioned by
 Saeed.

  1/12: Add XDP_ABORTED enum, reword API comment, and update commit
   message.
  2/12: Rewrite ndo_xdp_*() into single ndo_xdp() with type/union style
    calling convention.
  3/12: Switch to ndo_xdp callback.
  4/12: Add XDP_ABORTED case as a fall-through to XDP_DROP. Implement
    ndo_xdp.
 12/12: Dropped, this will need some more work.

v6:
  2/12: drop unnecessary netif_device_present check
  4/12, 6/12, 9/12: Reorder default case statement above drop case to
    remove some copy/paste.

v5:
  0/12: Rebase and remove previous 1/13 patch
  1/12: Fix nits from Daniel. Left the (void *) cast as-is, to be fixed
    in future. Add bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action() helper, to be used when
    out of bounds action is returned by the program. Add a comment to
    bpf.h denoting the undefined nature of out of bounds returns.
  2/12: Switch to using bpf_prog_get_type(). Rename ndo_xdp_get() to
    ndo_xdp_attached().
  3/12: Add IFLA_XDP as a nested type, and add the associated nla_policy
    for the new subtypes IFLA_XDP_FD and IFLA_XDP_ATTACHED.
  4/12: Fixup the use of READ_ONCE in the ndos. Add a user of
    bpf_warn_invalid_xdp_action helper.
  5/12: Adjust to using the nested netlink options.
  6/12: kbuild was complaining about overflow of u16 on tile
    architecture...bump frag_stride to u32. The page_offset member that
    is computed from this was already u32.

v4:
  2/12: Add inline helper for calling xdp bpf prog under rcu
  3/12: Add detail to ndo comments
  5/12: Remove mlx4_call_xdp and use inline helper instead.
  6/12: Fix checkpatch complaints
  9/12: Introduce new patch 9/12 with common helper for tx_desc write
    Refactor to use common tx_desc write helper
 11/12: Fix checkpatch complaints

v3:
  Rewrite from v2 trying to incorporate feedback from multiple sources.
  Specifically, add ability to forward packets out the same port and
    allow packet modification.
  For packet forwarding, the driver reserves a dedicated set of tx rings
    for exclusive use by xdp. Upon completion, the pages on this ring are
    recycled directly back to a small per-rx-ring page cache without
    being dma unmapped.
  Use of the percpu skb is dropped in favor of a lightweight struct
    xdp_buff. The direct packet access feature is leveraged to remove
    dependence on the skb.
  The mlx4 driver implementation allocates a page-per-packet and maps it
    in PCI_DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL mode when the bpf program is activated.
  Naming is converted to use "xdp" instead of "phys_dev".

v2:
  1/5: Drop xdp from types, instead consistently use bpf_phys_dev_
    Introduce enum for return values from phys_dev hook
  2/5: Move prog->type check to just before invoking ndo
    Change ndo to take a bpf_prog * instead of fd
    Add ndo_bpf_get rather than keeping a bool in the netdev struct
  3/5: Use ndo_bpf_get to fetch bool
  4/5: Enforce that only 1 frag is ever given to bpf prog by disallowing
    mtu to increase beyond FRAG_SZ0 when bpf prog is running, or conversely
    to set a bpf prog when priv->num_frags > 1
    Rename pseudo_skb to bpf_phys_dev_md
    Implement ndo_bpf_get
    Add dma sync just before invoking prog
    Check for explicit bpf return code rather than nonzero
    Remove increment of rx_dropped
  5/5: Use explicit bpf return code in example
    Update commit log with higher pps numbers

A user will now be able to loop packets back out of the same port using
a bpf program attached to xdp hook. Updates to the packet contents from
the bpf program is also supported.

For the packet write feature to work, the rx buffers are now mapped as
bidirectional when the page is allocated. This occurs only when the xdp
hook is active.

When the program returns a TX action, enqueue the packet directly to a
dedicated tx ring, so as to avoid completely any locking. This requires
the tx ring to be allocated 1:1 for each rx ring, as well as the tx
completion running in the same softirq.

Upon tx completion, this dedicated tx ring recycles pages without
unmapping directly back to the original rx ring. In steady state tx/drop
workload, effectively 0 page allocs/frees will occur.

In order to separate out the paths between free and recycle, a
free_tx_desc func pointer is introduced that is optionally updated
whenever recycle_ring is activated. By default the original free
function is always initialized.

The mlx4 driver by default allocates order-3 pages for the ring to
consume in multiple fragments. When the device has an xdp program, this
behavior will prevent tx actions since the page must be re-mapped in
TODEVICE mode, which cannot be done if the page is still shared.

Start by making the allocator configurable based on whether xdp is
running, such that order-0 pages are always used and never shared.

Since this will stress the page allocator, add a simple page cache to
each rx ring. Pages in the cache are left dma-mapped, and in drop-only
stress tests the page allocator is eliminated from the perf report.

Note that setting an xdp program will now require the rings to be
reconfigured.

Add support for the BPF_PROG_TYPE_XDP hook in mlx4 driver.

In tc/socket bpf programs, helpers linearize skb fragments as needed
when the program touches the packet data. However, in the pursuit of
speed, XDP programs will not be allowed to use these slower functions,
especially if it involves allocating an skb.

Therefore, disallow MTU settings that would produce a multi-fragment
packet that XDP programs would fail to access. Future enhancements could
be done to increase the allowable MTU.

The xdp program is present as a per-ring data structure, but as of yet
it is not possible to set at that granularity through any ndo.

expose the packet start and end pointers, and only in read mode.

An XDP program must return one of the well known enum values, all other

approach of warning at runtime when such programs are encountered. Out

NCSI Support

This series rebases on David's linux-net git repo ("master" branch). It's
to support NCSI stack on drivers/net/ethernet/faraday/ftgmac100.c. The
implementation is based on NCSI spec (version: 1.1.0):
https://www.dmtf.org/sites/default/files/standards/documents/DSP0222_1.1.0.pdf

As the following figure shows and defined in NCSI spec:

 * The NC-SI (aka NCSI) is defined as the interface between a (Base)
   Management Controller (BMC) and one or multiple Network Interface
   Controlers (NIC) on host side. The interface is responsible for providing
   external network connectivity for BMC.
 * Each BMC can connect to multiple packages, up to 8. Each package can have
   multiple channels, up to 32. Every package and channel are identified by
   3-bits and 5-bits in NCSI packet.
 * NCSI packet, encapsulated in ethernet frame, has 0x88F8 in the protocol
   field. The destination MAC address should be 0xFF's while the source MAC
   address can be arbitrary one.
 * NCSI packets are classified to command, response, AEN (Asynchronous Event Notification).
   Commands are sent from BMC to host (NIC) for configuration and
   information retrival. Responses, corresponding to commands, are sent from
   host to BMC for confirmation and requested information. One command should
   have one and only one response. AEN is sent from host to BMC for notification
   (e.g. link down on active channel) so that BMC can take appropriate action.

The series of patches is highlighted as:

The design for the patchset is highlighted as below:

 * The network driver uses 3 interfaces exported from NCSI stack:
   ncsi_register_dev() - Register (create) a associated NCSI device.
   ncsi_start_dev() - Bring up the NCSI device.
   ncsi_unregister_dev() - Destroy the registered NCSI device.
 * There are several data structures introduced for different objects:
   struct ncsi_dev - NCSI device seen by network device driver.
   struct ncsi_dev_priv - NCSI device seen by NCSI stack.
   struct ncsi_package - NCSI package which can have multiple channels.
   struct ncsi_channel - NCSI channel.
 * The NCSI stack is driven by workqueue and state machine internally.
 * The all available NCSI packages and channels are enumerated (probed) on
   the first call to ncsi_start_dev(). The NCSI topology won't change until
   the NCSI device is destroyed.
 * All available channels will be brought up When the hardware arbitration
   is enabled. Otherwise, only one channel is selected as active one. The
   NCSI internal is driven by state machine with help of a workqueue. In
   the meanwhile, there are 3 states for each channel which can be put into
   a queue requesting for configuration or suspending. Channels in the queue
   with inactive state set will be configured (bringup) while channels in
   the queue with active state will be suspended (teardown). The request
   configuration or suspending is being applied on the channel if it's in
   invisible state.
 * Failover, another inactive channel is selected as active, can happen when
   the hardware arbitration is disabled. The failover can be caused by timeout
   on link monitor and AEN.
 * NCSI stack should be configurable through netlink or another mechanism, it's
   not implemented in this patchset. It's something TBD.
 * The first NIC driver that is aware of NCSI: drivers/net/ethernet/faraday/ftgmac100.c

Changelog
=========
v2 -> v3:
 * Include (one line) change in include/uapi/linux/if_ether.h to fix build
   error.
v1 -> v2:
 * Support NCSI spec v1.1.0 (3 more commands and 4 hardware arbitration
   modes added).
 * Enable AEN packets according to the supported list.
 * Introduce NCSI channel states and processing queue in order to support
   the hardware arbitration.
 * The hardware arbitration is supported (tested with emulated environment).
 * Introduce link monitor with GLS (Get Link Status) command/response as part
   of the error handling defined in NCSI spec.
 * Support IPv6 address discovery when CONFIG_IPV6 is enabled.

The device is assigned with random MAC address. It isn't reasonable.
An valid MAC address might have been provided by (uboot) firmware by
device-tree or in chip. It's reasonable to use it to maintain consistency.

This uses the MAC address from device-tree or that in the chip if it's
valid. Otherwise, a random MAC address is given as before.

This manages NCSI packages and channels:

 * The available packages and channels are enumerated in the first
   time of calling ncsi_start_dev(). The channels' capabilities are
   probed in the meanwhile. The NCSI network topology won't change
   until the NCSI device is destroyed.
 * There in a queue in every NCSI device. The element in the queue,
   channel, is waiting for configuration (bringup) or suspending
   (teardown). The channel's state (inactive/active) indicates the
   futher action (configuration or suspending) will be applied on the
   channel. Another channel's state (invisible) means the requested
   action is being applied.
 * The hardware arbitration will be enabled if all available packages
   and channels support it. All available channels try to provide
   service when hardware arbitration is enabled. Otherwise, one channel
   is selected as the active one at once.
 * When channel is in active state, meaning it's providing service, a
   timer started to retrieve the channe's link status. If the channel's
   link status fails to be updated in the determined period, the channel
   is going to be reconfigured. It's the error handling implementation
   as defined in NCSI spec.

NCSI spec (DSP0222) defines several objects: package, channel, mode,
filter, version and statistics etc. This introduces the data structs
to represent those objects and implement functions to manage them.
Also, this introduces CONFIG_NET_NCSI for the newly implemented NCSI
stack.

   * The user (e.g. netdev driver) dereference NCSI device by
     "struct ncsi_dev", which is embedded to "struct ncsi_dev_priv".
     The later one is used by NCSI stack internally.
   * Every NCSI device can have multiple packages simultaneously, up
     to 8 packages. It's represented by "struct ncsi_package" and
     identified by 3-bits ID.
   * Every NCSI package can have multiple channels, up to 32. It's
     represented by "struct ncsi_channel" and identified by 5-bits ID.
   * Every NCSI channel has version, statistics, various modes and
     filters. They are represented by "struct ncsi_channel_version",
     "struct ncsi_channel_stats", "struct ncsi_channel_mode" and
     "struct ncsi_channel_filter" separately.
   * Apart from AEN (Asynchronous Event Notification), the NCSI stack
     works in terms of command and response. This introduces "struct
     ncsi_req" to represent a complete NCSI transaction made of NCSI
     request and response.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Global2 cleanup and STP

The Marvell switches registers are organized in distinct internal SMI
devices, such as PHY, Port, Global 1 or Global 2 registers sets.

Since not all chips support every registers sets or have slightly
differences in them (such as old 88E6060 or new 88E6390 likely to be
supported soon), make the setup code clearer now by removing a few
family checks and adding flags to describe the Global 2 registers map.

This patchset enables basic STP support and bridging on most chips when
getting rid of a few inconsistencies in chip descriptions (patch 1) and
add bridge Ageing Time support to DSA and the mv88e6xxx driver.

Changes v2 -> v3:
  - rename mv88e6xxx_update_write to mv88e6xxx_update
  - set fastest ageing time in use in the chip for multiple bridges,
    tested with a few printk

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - add a write helper for pointer-data Update registers
  - add ageing time support

All Marvell switch chips from (88E6060 to 88E6390) have a ATU Control
register containing bits 11:4 to configure an ATU Age Time quotient.

However the coefficient used to calculate the ATU Age Time vary with the
models. E.g. 88E6060, 88E6352 and 88E6390 use respectively 16, 15 and
3.75 seconds.

Add a age_time_coeff to the info structure to handle this and a Global 1
helper to set the default age time of 5 minutes in the setup code.
