RxChkSum and RxVlan aren't touched outside __rtl8169_set_features
(except in probe), so they are always in sync with dev->features.
And the RxConfig flags are set in rtl_set_rx_mode() which is
called via dev_set_rx_mode() from __dev_open().
Therefore we can safely remove this call.

The current driver maps MQPRIO traffic classes directly 1:1 to the
internal hardware queues (TC0 maps to hardware queue 0, etc). This
direct mapping requires the internal hardware queues to be reconfigured
from lossless to lossy and vice versa when necessary. This
involves reconfiguring internal buffer thresholds which is
disruptive and not always reliable.
Implement a new scheme to map TCs to internal hardware queues by
matching up their PFC requirements. This will eliminate the need
to reconfigure a hardware queue internal buffers at run time. After
remapping, the NIC is closed and opened for the new TC to hardware
queues to take effect.

pull-request: bpf-next 2018-04-27
The following pull-request contains BPF updates for your *net-next* tree.
The main changes are:
1) Add extensive BPF helper description into include/uapi/linux/bpf.h
and a new script bpf_helpers_doc.py which allows for generating a
man page out of it. Thus, every helper in BPF now comes with proper
function signature, detailed description and return code explanation,
from Quentin.
2) Migrate the BPF collect metadata tunnel tests from BPF samples over
to the BPF selftests and further extend them with v6 vxlan, geneve
and ipip tests, simplify the ipip tests, improve documentation and
convert to bpf_ntoh*() / bpf_hton*() api, from William.
3) Currently, helpers that expect ARG_PTR_TO_MAP_{KEY,VALUE} can only
access stack and packet memory. Extend this to allow such helpers
to also use map values, which enabled use cases where value from
a first lookup can be directly used as a key for a second lookup,
from Paul.
4) Add a new helper bpf_skb_get_xfrm_state() for tc BPF programs in
order to retrieve XFRM state information containing SPI, peer
address and reqid values, from Eyal.
5) Various optimizations in nfp driver's BPF JIT in order to turn ADD
and SUB instructions with negative immediate into the opposite
operation with a positive immediate such that nfp can better fit
small immediates into instructions. Savings in instruction count
up to 4% have been observed, from Jakub.
6) Add the BPF prog's gpl_compatible flag to struct bpf_prog_info
and add support for dumping this through bpftool, from Jiri.
7) Move the BPF sockmap samples over into BPF selftests instead since
sockmap was rather a series of tests than sample anyway and this way
this can be run from automated bots, from John.
8) Follow-up fix for bpf_adjust_tail() helper in order to make it work
with generic XDP, from Nikita.
9) Some follow-up cleanups to BTF, namely, removing unused defines from
BTF uapi header and renaming 'name' struct btf_* members into name_off
to make it more clear they are offsets into string section, from Martin.
10) Remove test_sock_addr from TEST_GEN_PROGS in BPF selftests since
not run directly but invoked from test_sock_addr.sh, from Yonghong.
11) Remove redundant ret assignment in sample BPF loader, from Wang.
12) Add couple of missing files to BPF selftest's gitignore, from Anders.
There are two trivial merge conflicts while pulling:
1) Remove samples/sockmap/Makefile since all sockmap tests have been
moved to selftests.
2) Add both hunks from tools/testing/selftests/bpf/.gitignore to the
file since git should ignore all of them.

1GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-04-25
This series enables some ethtool and tc-flower filters to be offloaded
to igb-based network controllers. This is useful when the system
configuration wants to steer kinds of traffic to a specific hardware
queue for i210 devices only.
The first two patch in the series are bug fixes.
The basis of this series is to export the internal API used to
configure address filters, so they can be used by ethtool, and
extending the functionality so an source address can be handled.
Then, we enable the tc-flower offloading implementation to re-use the
same infrastructure as ethtool, and storing them in the per-adapter
"nfc" (Network Filter Config?) list. But for consistency, for
destructive access they are separated, i.e. an filter added by
tc-flower can only be removed by tc-flower, but ethtool can read them
all.
Only support for VLAN Prio, Source and Destination MAC Address, and
Ethertype is enabled for now.

10GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2018-04-25
This series represents yet another phase of the macvlan cleanup Alex has
been working on.
The main goal of these changes is to make it so that we only support
offloading what we can actually offload and we don't break any existing
functionality. So for example we were claiming to advertise source mode
macvlan and we were doing nothing of the sort, so support for that has been
dropped.
The biggest change with this set is that broadcast/multicast replication is
no longer being supported in software. Alex dropped it as it leads to
scaling issues when a broadcast frame has to be replicated up to 64 times.
Beyond that this set goes through and optimized the time needed to bring up
and tear down the macvlan interfaces on ixgbe and provides a clean way for
us to disable the macvlan offload when needed.

This allows filters added by tc-flower and specifying MAC addresses,
Ethernet types, and the VLAN priority field, to be offloaded to the
controller.
This reuses most of the infrastructure used by ethtool, but clsflower
filters are kept in a separated list, so they are invisible to
ethtool.
To setup clsflower offloading:
$ tc qdisc replace dev eth0 handle 100: parent root mqprio \
num_tc 3 map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 hw 0
(clsflower offloading depends on the netword driver to be configured
with multiple traffic classes, we use mqprio's 'num_tc' parameter to
set it to 3)
$ tc qdisc add dev eth0 ingress
Examples of filters:
$ tc filter add dev eth0 parent ffff: flower \
dst_mac aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa \
hw_tc 2 skip_sw
(just a simple filter filtering for the destination MAC address and
steering that traffic to queue 2)
$ tc filter add dev enp2s0 parent ffff: proto 0x22f0 flower \
src_mac cc:cc:cc:cc:cc:cc \
hw_tc 1 skip_sw
(as the i210 doesn't support steering traffic based on the source
address alone, we need to use another steering traffic, in this case
we are using the ethernet type (0x22f0) to steer traffic to queue 1)

This adds the capability of configuring the queue steering of arriving

Source address steering (i.e. driving traffic to a specific queue),
for the i210, does not work, but filtering does (i.e. accepting

In practical terms this adds support for the following use cases,
characterized by these examples:
$ ethtool -N eth0 flow-type ether dst aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa action 0
(this will direct packets with destination address "aa:aa:aa:aa:aa:aa"

The original implementation for macvlan offload has us performing a full
port reset every time we added a new macvlan. This shouldn't be necessary
and can be avoided with a few behavior changes.
This patches updates the logic for the queues so that we have essentially 3
possible configurations for macvlan offload. They consist of 15 macvlans
with 4 queues per macvlan, 31 macvlans with 2 queues per macvlan, and 63
macvlans with 1 queue per macvlan. As macvlans are added you will encounter
up to 3 total resets if you add all the way up to 63, and after that the
device will stay in the mode supporting up to 63 macvlans until the L2FW

This change makes it so that we use a software path for packets that are
going to be locally switched between two macvlan interfaces on the same
device. In addition we resort to software replication of broadcast and
multicast packets instead of offloading that to hardware.
The general idea is that using the device for east/west traffic local to
the system is extremely inefficient. We can only support up to whatever the
PCIe limit is for any given device so this caps us at somewhere around 20G
for devices supported by ixgbe. This is compounded even further when you
take broadcast and multicast into account as a single 10G port can come to
a crawl as a packet is replicated up to 60+ times in some cases. In order
to get away from that I am implementing changes so that we handle
broadcast/multicast replication and east/west local traffic all in
software.
