Every qdisc op gets the qdisc handle ID as well as its location. Each one
of them, beside replace, checks if the handle doesn't match the qdisc in
the given location, and if so, it returns without running the actual op.
Unite these checks to one comparison function and avoid sending the handle
id to these ops.

The link state and exception interrupts may be masked when we probe.
The firmware should in theory prevent sending (and automasking) those
interrupts if the device is disabled, but if my reading of the FW code
is correct there are firmwares out there with race conditions in this
area. The interrupt may also be masked if previous driver which used
the device was malfunctioning and we didn't load the FW (there is no
other good way to comprehensively reset the PF).
Note that FW unmasks the data interrupts by itself when vNIC is
enabled, such helpful operation is not performed for LSC/EXN interrupts.
Always unmask the auxiliary interrupts after request_irq(). On the
remove path add missing PCI write flush before free_irq().

Having the interrupts firing while we are polling causes extra overhead and

experiencing a 2s latency spike before recovering is still not acceptable
and masks the issue. We are better off just identifying systems that lose
interrupts and instead enable workarounds for those systems.
To that end I am dropping the code that was strobing the interrupts as
there is a narrow window where having them enabled can actually cause
race issues anyway where a few stray packets might get misses if the

We introduced the virtchnl interface in order to have an interface for
talking to a virtual device driver which was host-driver agnostic. This
interface has its own definitions, including one for link speed.
The host driver has to talk to the virtchnl interface using these new
definitions in order to remain compatible. Today, the i40e link_speed
enumerations are value-exact matches for the virtchnl interface, so it
was originally decided to simply use a typecast.
However, this is unsafe, and makes it easier for future drivers to
continue this unsafe practice. There is nothing guaranteeing these
values are exact, and the type-cast would hide any compiler warning
which indicates the problem.
Rather than rely on this type cast, introduce a helper function which
can convert the AdminQ link speed definition into a virtchnl
definition. This can then be used by host driver implementations in
order to safely convert to the interface recognized by the virtual
functions.
If the link speed is not able to be represented by the virtchnl
definitions we'll report UNKNOWN which is the safest result.
This will ensure that should the driver specific link_speeds actual bit
definitions change, we do not report them incorrectly according to the
VF.
Additionally, this provides a better pattern for future drivers to copy,
as it is more likely a future device may not use the exact same bit-wise
definition as the current virtchnl interface.

We currently notify a VF of the link state after ENABLE_QUEUES, which is
the last thing a VF does after being configured. Guests may not actually

and device configuration the VF may show inaccurate link status.
Fix this by also sending the link state after GET_VF_RESOURCES. Although
we could remove the message following ENABLE_QUEUES, it's not that
significant of a loss, so this patch just keeps both to ensure maximum
compatibility with guests on various OSes.
Specifically, without this patch guests running FreeBSD will display
inaccurate link state until the device is brought up. This is mostly

If i40evf_open() is called quickly at the same time as a reset occurs
(such as via ethtool) it is possible for the device to attempt to open
while a reset is in progress. This occurs because the driver was not
holding the critical task bit lock during i40evf_open, nor was it
holding it around the call to i40evf_up_complete() in
i40evf_reset_task().
We didn't hold the lock previously because calls to i40evf_down() would
take the bit lock directly, and this would have caused a deadlock.
To avoid this, we'll move the bit lock handling out of i40evf_down() and
into the callers of this function. Additionally, we'll now hold the bit
lock over the entire set of steps when going up or down, to ensure that
we remain consistent.
Ultimately this causes us to serialize the transitions between down and
up properly, and avoid changing status while we're resetting.

Ensure that every place where we access the list uses the spinlock to

In i40evf_reset_task we use netif_running() to determine whether or not
the device is currently up. This allows us to properly free queue memory
and shut down things before we request the hardware reset.
It turns out that we cannot be guaranteed of netif_running() returning
false until the device is fully up, as the kernel core code sets
__LINK_STATE_START prior to calling .ndo_open. Since we're not holding
the rtnl_lock(), it's possible that the driver's i40evf_open handler
function is currently being called while we're resetting.
We can't simply hold the rtnl_lock() while checking netif_running() as
this could cause a deadlock with the i40evf_open() function.
Additionally, we can't avoid the deadlock by holding the rtnl_lock()
over the whole reset path, as this essentially serializes all resets,
and can cause massive delays if we have multiple VFs on a system.
Instead, lets just check our own internal state __I40EVF_RUNNING state
field. This allows us to ensure that the state is correct and is only
set after we've finished bringing the device up.
Without this change we might free data structures about device queues
and other memory before they've been fully allocated.

net: create dynamic software irq moderation library
This converts the dynamic interrupt moderation library from the mlx5e
driver into a library so it can be used by any driver. The penultimate
patch in this set adds support for this new dynamic interrupt moderation
library in the bnxt_en driver and the last patch creates an entry in the
MAINTAINERS file for this library.
The main purpose of this code is to allow an administrator to make sure
that default coalesce settings are optimized for low latency, but
quickly adapt to handle high throughput/bulk traffic by altering how
much time passes before popping an interrupt.
For any new driver the following changes would be needed to use this
library:
- add elements in ring struct to track items needed by this library
- create function that can be called to actually set coalesce settings
for the driver

ipv6: Add support for non-equal-cost multipath
This set aims to add support for IPv6 non-equal-cost multipath routes.
The first three patches convert multipath selection to use the
hash-threshold method (RFC 2992) instead of modulo-N. The same method is
employed by the IPv4 routing code since commit 0e884c78ee ("ipv4: L3
hash-based multipath").
Unlike modulo-N, with hash-threshold only the flows near the region
boundaries are affected when a nexthop is added or removed. In addition,
it allows us to easily add support for non-equal-cost multipath in the
last patch by sizing the different regions according to the provided
weights.

The use of hash-threshold instead of modulo-N makes it trivial to add
support for non-equal-cost multipath.
Instead of dividing the multipath hash function's output space equally
between the nexthops, each nexthop is assigned a region size which is
proportional to its weight.

Now that each nexthop stores its region boundary in the multipath hash
function's output space, we can use hash-threshold instead of modulo-N
in multipath selection.
This reduces the number of checks we need to perform during lookup, as
dead and linkdown nexthops are assigned a negative region boundary. In
addition, in contrast to modulo-N, only flows near region boundaries are
affected when a nexthop is added or removed.

The hash thresholds assigned to IPv6 nexthops are in the range of
[-1, 2^31 - 1], where a negative value is assigned to nexthops that
should not be considered during multipath selection.
Therefore, in a similar fashion to IPv4, we need to use the upper
31-bits of the multipath hash for multipath selection.
