8ac34f10a5 ixgbe: Limit lowest interrupt rate for adaptive interrupt moderation to 12K
This patch updates the lowest limit for adaptive interrupt interrupt
moderation to roughly 12K interrupts per second.

The way I came about reaching 12K as the desired interrupt rate is by
testing with UDP flows.  Specifically I had a simple test that ran a
netperf UDP_STREAM test at varying sizes.  What I found was as the packet
sizes increased the performance fell steadily behind until we were only
able to receive at ~4Gb/s with a message size of 65507.  A bit of digging
found that we were dropping packets for the socket in the network stack,
and looking at things further what I found was I could solve it by increasing
the interrupt rate, or increasing the rmem_default/rmem_max.  What I found was
that when the interrupt coalescing resulted in more data being processed
per interrupt than could be stored in the socket buffer we started losing
packets and the performance dropped.  So I reached 12K based on the
following math.

rmem_default = 212992
skb->truesize = 2994
212992 / 2994 = 71.14 packets to fill the buffer

packet rate at 1514 packet size is 812744pps
71.14 / 812744 = 87.9us to fill socket buffer

From there it was just a matter of choosing the interrupt rate and
providing a bit of wiggle room which is why I decided to go with 12K
interrupts per second as that uses a value of 84us.

The data below is based on VM to VM over a direct assigned ixgbe interface.
The test run was:
	netperf -H <ip> -t UDP_STREAM"

Using bare metal the data is similar but not as dramatic as the throughput

3bcf344657 ixgbe: determine vector count inside ixgbe_acquire_msix_vectors
Our calculated v_budget doesn't matter except if we allocate MSI-X

adc810900a ixgbe: Refactor busy poll socket code to address multiple issues
This change addresses several issues in the current ixgbe implementation of
busy poll sockets.

First was the fact that it was possible for frames to be delivered out of
order if they were held in GRO.  This is addressed by flushing the GRO buffers
before releasing the q_vector back to the idle state.

The other issue was the fact that we were having to take a spinlock on
changing the state to and from idle.  To resolve this I have replaced the
state value with an atomic and use atomic_cmpxchg to change the value from
idle, and a simple atomic set to restore it back to idle after we have
acquired it.  This allows us to only use a locked operation on acquiring the
vector without a need for a locked operation to release it.

d3cb98691f ixgbe: Define FCoE and Flow director limits much sooner to allow for changes
Instead of adjusting the FCoE and Flow director limits based on the number
of CPUs we can define them much sooner.  This allows the user to come
through later and adjust them once we have updated the code to support the
set_channels ethtool operation.

I am still allowing for FCoE and RSS queues to be separated if the number
queues is less than the number of CPUs.  This essentially treats the two
groupings like they are two separate traffic classes.

In addition I am changing the initialization to use the MAX_TX/RX_QUEUES
defines instead of trying to compute the value as it will be possible in
upcoming patches for the user to request the maximum number of queues.

I have also updated things so that the upper limit on queues is exactly 63
instead of allowing it to go up to 64.  The reason for this change is to
address the fact thqt the driver only supports up to 63 queue vectors since
the hardware supports 64 MSI-X vectors, but one must be reserved for "other"
causes.

245f292d71 ixgbe: Initialize q_vector cpu and affinity masks correctly
When enabling DCB the rings belonging to a q_vector on CPU 0 were not
reinitializing their DCA registers.  Upon closer inspection the issue was
that the q_vector CPU variable was left at 0 resulting in the driver not
updating the DCA registers.

In order to guarantee the DCA registers will be updated I am adding a
couple line change so that we initialize the CPU variable to -1 which will
force a DCA update the first time an interrupt fires on that q_vector.

In addition we were setting the CPU affinity hint to all CPUs when we were
not specifying a CPU.  Instead we should leave it as all zeros to avoid any
possible confusion about the fact that we shouldn't be giving a hint.

39cb681b3b ixgbe: Fix handling of FDIR_HASH flag
This change makes it so that we can use the atr_sample_rate to determine if
we are capable of supporting ATR. The advantage to this approach is that it
allows us to now determine the setting of the IXGBE_FLAG_FDIR_HASH_CAPABLE
based on the queueing scheme, instead of the queueing scheme being based on
the flag.

Using this approach there are essentially 5 conditions that must be checked
prior to trying to enable ATR:
1.  Is SR-IOV disabled?
2.  Are the number of TCs <= 1?
3.  Is RSS queueing limit greater than 1?
4.  Is atr_sample_rate set?
5.  Is Flow Director perfect filtering disabled?

If any of these conditions are enabled they should disable ATR filtering.
Note that in the case of conditions 1 through 4 being met we will set
things up for ATR queueing, however if test 5 fails we will still leave the
queues allocated for use by perfect filters.  The reason for this is to
allow for us to switch back and forth between ntuple and ATR without
needing to reallocate the descriptor rings.

c087663ec8 ixgbe: Add upper limit to ring features
We are currently using indices to indicate the upper limit on a ring
feature.  However since we can switch back and forth on features such as
DCB and that has effects on other features such as RSS it is preferable to
instead store the upper limit separate from the current value for the
number of rings related to the feature.

49c7ffbe7b ixgbe: count q_vectors instead of MSI-X vectors
It makes much more sense for us to count q_vectors instead of MSI-X
vectors.  We were using num_msix_vectors to find the number of q_vectors in
multiple places.  This was wasteful since we only had one place that
actually needs the number of MSI-X vectors and that is in slow path.

57efd44c8c ixgbe: Do not pad FCoE frames as this can cause issues with FCoE DDP
FCoE target mode was experiencing issues due to the fact that we were
sending up data frames that were padded to 60 bytes after the DDP logic had
already stripped the frame down to 52 or 56 depending on the use of VLANs.
This was resulting in the FCoE DDP logic having issues since it thought the
frame still had data in it due to the padding.

To resolve this, adding code so that we do not pad FCoE frames prior to
handling them to the stack.

d0bfcdfd48 ixgbe: Reorder the ring to q_vector mapping to improve performance
This change reorders the mapping of rings to q_vectors in the case that the
number of rings exceeds the number of q_vectors.  Previously we would
allocate the first R/N queues to the first q_vector where R is the number
of rings and N is the number of q_vectors.  Instead of doing this we can do
a better job of interleaving the rings to the CPUs by assigning every Nth
ring to the q_vector.

The below tables illustrate this change for the R = 16 N = 4 case.
          Before patch  After patch
q_vector:  0  1  2  3    0  1  2  3
Rings:     0  4  8 12    0  1  2  3
           1  5  9 13    4  5  6  7
           3  6 10 14    8  9 10 11
           4  7 11 15   12 13 14 15

This should improve the performance for both DCB or ATR when the number of
rings exceeds the number of q_vectors allocated by the adapter.

b2db497eb2 ixgbe: Identify FCoE rings earlier to resolve memory corruption w/ FCoE
This patch makes it so that we identify FCoE rings earlier than
ixgbe_set_rx_buffer_len.  Instead we identify the Rx FCoE rings at
allocation time in ixgbe_alloc_q_vector.

The motivation behind this change is to avoid memory corruption when FCoE
is enabled.  Without this change we were initializing the rings at 0, and
2K on systems with 4K pages, then when we bumped the buffer size to 4K with
order 1 pages we were accessing offsets 2K and 6K instead of 0 and 4K.
This was resulting in memory corruptions.

8af3c33f4d ixgbe: fix namespace issues when FCoE/DCB is not enabled
Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled.
The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace
problems. A simple example:

ixgbe_main.c
 - defines func A()
 - uses func A()

ixgbe_fcoe.c
 - uses func A()

ixgbe.h
 - has prototype for func A()

For default (FCoE included) all is good.  But when it isn't the namespace
checker complains about how func A() could be static.

To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used
by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in
namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.
