Add software backchannel and mlx5e HV VHCA stats
This patch set adds paravirtual backchannel in software in pci_hyperv,
which is required by the mlx5e driver HV VHCA stats agent.
The stats agent is responsible on running a periodic rx/tx packets/bytes
stats update.
====================
Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
HV VHCA stats agent is responsible on running a preiodic rx/tx
packets/bytes stats update. Currently the supported format is version
MLX5_HV_VHCA_STATS_VERSION. Block ID 1 is dedicated for statistics data
transfer from the VF to the PF.
The reporter fetch the statistics data from all opened channels, fill it
in a buffer and send it to mlx5_hv_vhca_write_agent.
As the stats layer should include some metadata per block (sequence and
offset), the HV VHCA layer shall modify the buffer before actually send it
over block 1.

Control agent is responsible over of the control block (ID 0). It should
update the PF via this block about every capability change. In addition,
upon block 0 invalidate, it should activate all other supported agents
with data requests from the PF.
Upon agent create/destroy, the invalidate callback of the control agent
is being called in order to update the PF driver about this change.
The control agent is an integral part of HV VHCA and will be created
and destroy as part of the HV VHCA init/cleanup flow.

HV VHCA is a layer which provides PF to VF communication channel based on
HyperV PCI config channel. It implements Mellanox's Inter VHCA control
communication protocol. The protocol contains control block in order to
pass messages between the PF and VF drivers, and data blocks in order to
pass actual data.
The infrastructure is agent based. Each agent will be responsible of
contiguous buffer blocks in the VHCA config space. This infrastructure will
bind agents to their blocks, and those agents can only access read/write
the buffer blocks assigned to them. Each agent will provide three
callbacks (control, invalidate, cleanup). Control will be invoked when
block-0 is invalidated with a command that concerns this agent. Invalidate
callback will be invoked if one of the blocks assigned to this agent was
invalidated. Cleanup will be invoked before the agent is being freed in
order to clean all of its open resources or deferred works.
Block-0 serves as the control block. All execution commands from the PF
will be written by the PF over this block. VF will ack on those by
writing on block-0 as well. Its format is described by struct
mlx5_hv_vhca_control_block layout.

Windows SR-IOV provides a backchannel mechanism in software for communication
between a VF driver and a PF driver. These "configuration blocks" are
similar in concept to PCI configuration space, but instead of doing reads and
writes in 32-bit chunks through a very slow path, packets of up to 128 bytes
can be sent or received asynchronously.
Nearly every SR-IOV device contains just such a communications channel in
hardware, so using this one in software is usually optional. Using the
software channel, however, allows driver implementers to leverage software
tools that fuzz the communications channel looking for vulnerabilities.
The usage model for these packets puts the responsibility for reading or
writing on the VF driver. The VF driver sends a read or a write packet,
indicating which "block" is being referred to by number.
If the PF driver wishes to initiate communication, it can "invalidate" one or
more of the first 64 blocks. This invalidation is delivered via a callback
supplied by the VF driver by this driver.
No protocol is implied, except that supplied by the PF and VF drivers.

This series includes updates to mlx5 ethernet and core driver:
Vlad submits part 3 of 3 part series to allow TC flow handling
for concurrent execution.
Vlad says:
==========
Structure mlx5e_neigh_hash_entry code that uses it are refactored in
following ways:
- Extend neigh_hash_entry with rcu and modify its users to always take
reference to the structure when using it (neigh_hash_entry has already
had atomic reference counter which was only used when scheduling neigh
update on workqueue from atomic context of neigh update netevent).
- Always use mlx5e_neigh_update_table->encap_lock when modifying neigh
update hash table and list. Originally, this lock was only used to
synchronize with netevent handler function, which is called from bh
context and cannot use rtnl lock for synchronization. Use rcu read lock
instead of encap_lock to lookup nhe in atomic context of netevent even
handler function. Convert encap_lock to mutex to allow creating new
neigh hash entries while holding it, which is safe to do because the
lock is no longer used in atomic context.
- Rcu-ify mlx5e_neigh_hash_entry->encap_list by changing operations on
encap list to their rcu counterparts and extending encap structure
with rcu_head to free the encap instances after rcu grace period. This
allows fast traversal of list of encaps attached to nhe under rcu read
lock protection.
- Take encap_table_lock when accessing encap entries in neigh update and
neigh stats update code to protect from concurrent encap entry
insertion or removal.
This approach leads to potential race condition when neigh update and
neigh stats update code can access encap and flow entries that are not
fully initialized or are being destroyed, or neigh can change state
without updating encaps that are created concurrently. Prevent these
issues by following changes in flow and encap initialization:
- Extend mlx5e_tc_flow with 'init_done' completion. Modify neigh update
to wait for both encap and flow completions to prevent concurrent
access to a structure that is being initialized by tc.
- Skip structures that failed during initialization: encaps with
encap_id<0 and flows that don't have OFFLOADED flag set.
- To ensure that no new flows are added to encap when it is being
accessed by neigh update or neigh stats update, take encap_table_lock
mutex.
- To prevent concurrent deletion by tc, ensure that neigh update and
neigh stats update hold references to encap and flow instances while
using them.
With changes presented in this patch set it is now safe to execute tc
concurrently with neigh update and neigh stats update. However, these
two workqueue tasks modify same flow "tmp_list" field to store flows
with reference taken in temporary list to release the references after
update operation finishes and should not be executed concurrently with
each other.
Last 3 patches of this series provide 3 new mlx5 trace points to track
mlx5 tc requests and mlx5 neigh updates.

In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock and allow neigh update workqueue
task to execute concurrently with tc, refactor mlx5e_rep_neigh_update() for
concurrent execution:
- Lock encap table when accessing encap entry to prevent concurrent
changes. To do this properly, the initial encap state check is moved from
mlx5e_rep_neigh_update() into mlx5e_rep_update_flows() to be performed
under encap_tbl_lock protection.
- Wait for encap to be fully initialized before accessing it by means of
'res_ready' completion.
- Add mlx5e_take_all_encap_flows() helper which is used to construct a
temporary list of flows and efi indexes that is used to access current
encap data in flow which can be attached to multiple encaps
simultaneously. Release the flows from temporary list after
encap_tbl_lock critical section. This is necessary because
mlx5e_flow_put() can't be called while holding encap_tbl_lock.
- Modify mlx5e_tc_encap_flows_add() and mlx5e_tc_encap_flows_del() to work
with user-provided list of flows built by mlx5e_take_all_encap_flows(),
instead of traversing encap flow list directly.
This is first step in complex neigh update refactoring, which is finished

Neigh entry has reference counter, however it is only used when scheduling
neigh update event. In all other cases reference to neigh entry is not
taken while working with it. Neigh code relies on synchronization provided
by rtnl lock and uses encap list size as implicit reference counter.
To remove dependency on rtnl lock, always take reference to neigh entry
while using it. Remove neigh entry from hash table and delete it only when
reference counter reaches zero. This can result spurious neigh update
events, when there is an event on entry that has zero encaps attached.
However, such events are rare and properly handled by neigh update handler.
Extend encap entry with reference to neigh hash entry in order to be able
to directly release it when encap is detached, instead of lookup nhe by key
through hash table. Extend nhe with reference to device priv structure to
guarantee correctness when nhe is used with stack devices, bond setup, in
which case it is non-trivial to determine correct device when releasing the
nhe.

The amount of traffic generated by these packet drop traps is capped at
10Kpps to ensure the CPU is not overwhelmed by incoming packets.

Discard trap groups are defined in a different enum so that they could
all share the same policer ID: MLXSW_REG_HTGT_TRAP_GROUP_MAX + 1.

Subsequent patches will add discard traps support in mlxsw. The driver
cannot configure such traps with a normal trap action, but needs to use
exception trap action, which also increments an error counter.
On the other hand, when these traps are initialized or set to drop
action, they should use the default drop action set by the firmware.
This guarantees that when the feature is disabled we get the exact same
behavior as before the feature was introduced.

Up until now the action of a trap was never changed during its lifetime.
This is going to change by subsequent patches that will allow devlink to
control the action of certain traps.

On some devices that only support static rate fallback tables sending rate
control probing packets can be really expensive.
Probing lower rates can already hurt throughput quite a bit. What hurts even
more is the fact that on mt76x0/mt76x2, single probing packets can only be
forced by directing packets at a different internal hardware queue, which
causes some heavy reordering and extra latency.
The reordering issue is mainly problematic while pushing lots of packets to
a particular station. If there is little activity, the overhead of probing is
neglegible.
The static fallback behavior is designed to pretty much only handle rate
control algorithms that use only a very limited set of rates on which the
algorithm switches up/down based on packet error rate.
In order to better support that kind of hardware, this patch implements a
different approach to rate probing where it switches to a slightly higher rate,
waits for tx status feedback, then updates the stats and switches back to
the new max throughput rate. This only triggers above a packet rate of 100
per stats interval (~50ms).
For that kind of probing, the code has to reduce the set of probing rates
a lot more compared to single packet probing, so it uses only one packet
per MCS group which is either slightly faster, or as close as possible to
the max throughput rate.
This allows switching between similar rates with different numbers of
streams. The algorithm assumes that the hardware will work its way lower
within an MCS group in case of retransmissions, so that lower rates don't
have to be probed by the high packets per second rate probing code.
To further reduce the search space, it also does not probe rates with lower
channel bandwidth than the max throughput rate.
At the moment, these changes will only affect mt76x0/mt76x2.

On hardware with static fallback tables (e.g. mt76x2), rate probing attempts
can be very expensive.
On such devices, avoid sampling rates slower than the per-group max throughput
rate, based on the assumption that the fallback table will take care of probing
lower rates within that group if the higher rates fail.
To further reduce unnecessary probing attempts, skip duplicate attempts on
rates slower than the max throughput rate.

802.11ay specification defines Enhanced Directional Multi-Gigabit
(EDMG) STA and AP which allow channel bonding of 2 channels and more.
Introduce new NL attributes that are needed for enabling and
configuring EDMG support.
Two new attributes are used by kernel to publish driver's EDMG
capabilities to the userspace:
NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_CHANNELS - bitmap field that indicates the 2.16
GHz channel(s) that are supported by the driver.
When this attribute is not set it means driver does not support EDMG.
NL80211_BAND_ATTR_EDMG_BW_CONFIG - represent the channel bandwidth
configurations supported by the driver.
Additional two new attributes are used by the userspace for connect
command and for AP configuration:
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_CHANNELS
NL80211_ATTR_WIPHY_EDMG_BW_CONFIG
New rate info flag - RATE_INFO_FLAGS_EDMG, can be reported from driver
and used for bitrate calculation that will take into account EDMG
according to the 802.11ay specification.
