We do not set the ins_vlan field to zero when no vlan id is present in the packet.
Since WQEs in the TX ring are not zeroed out between uses, this oversight
could result in having vlan flags present in the WQE ctrl segment when no

To enable device support in accelerated 802.1ad vlan, the port
capability "packet has vlan enable" (phv_en) should be set.
Firmware won't work properly, in case phv_en is not set.
The user can enable "phv_en" port capability with the new ethtool
private flag phv-bit. The phv-bit private flag default value is OFF,
users who are interested in 802.1ad hardware acceleration should turn ON
the phv-bit private flag:
$ ethtool --set-priv-flags eth1 phv-bit on
Once the private flag is set, the device is ready for 802.1ad vlan
acceleration.
The user should also change the interface device features and turn on
"tx-vlan-stag-hw-insert" which is off by default:
$ ethtool -K eth1 tx-vlan-stag-hw-insert on
"phv-bit" private flag setting is available only for Physical
Functions(PF), the Virtual Function (VF) will be able to use the feature
by setting "tx-vlan-stag-hw-insert" ethtool device feature only if the
feature was enabled by the Hypervisor.

Indication of a single completed packet, marked by txbbs_skipped
being bigger then zero, in not enough in order to wake up a
stopped TX queue. The completed packet may contain a single TXBB,
while next packet to be sent (after the wake up) may have multiple
TXBBs (LSO/TSO packets for example), causing overflow in queue followed
by WQE corruption and TX queue timeout.
Instead, wake the stopped queue only when there's enough room for the
worst case (maximum sized WQE) packet that we should need to handle after
the queue is opened again.

da91309e0a (cpumask: Utility function to set n'th cpu...) created a
genuinely weird function. I never saw it before, it went through DaveM.
(He only does this to make us other maintainers feel better about our own
mistakes.)
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first's purpose is say "I need to spread things
across N online cpus, choose the ones on this numa node first"; you call
it in a loop.
It can fail. One of the two callers ignores this, the other aborts and
fails the device open.
It can fail in two ways: allocating the off-stack cpumask, or through a
convoluted codepath which AFAICT can only occur if cpu_online_mask
changes. Which shouldn't happen, because if cpu_online_mask can change
while you call this, it could return a now-offline cpu anyway.
It contains a nonsensical test "!cpumask_of_node(numa_node)". This was
drawn to my attention by Geert, who said this causes a warning on Sparc.
It sets a single bit in a cpumask instead of returning a cpu number,
because that's what the callers want.
It could be made more efficient by passing the previous cpu rather than
an index, but that would be more invasive to the callers.

This patch should help to improve the performance of the mlx4 and mlx5 on a
number of architectures. For example, on x86 the dma_wmb/rmb equates out
to a barrer() call as the architecture is already strong ordered, and on
PowerPC the call works out to a lwsync which is significantly less expensive
than the sync call that was being used for wmb.
I placed the new barriers between any spots that seemed to be trying to
order memory/memory reads or writes, if there are any spots that involved
MMIO I left the existing wmb in place as the new barriers cannot order
transactions between coherent and non-coherent memories.
v2: Reduced the replacments to just the spots where I could clearly
identify the usage pattern.

When using BF (Blue-Flame), the QPN overrides the VLAN, CV, and SV fields
in the WQE. Thus, BF may only be used for QPNs with bits 6,7 unset.
The current Ethernet driver code reserves a Tx QP range with 256b alignment.
This is wrong because if there are more than 64 Tx QPs in use,
QPNs >= base + 65 will have bits 6/7 set.
This problem is not specific for the Ethernet driver, any entity that
tries to reserve more than 64 BF-enabled QPs should fail. Also, using
ranges is not necessary here and is wasteful.
The new mechanism introduced here will support reservation for
"Eth QPs eligible for BF" for all drivers: bare-metal, multi-PF, and VFs
(when hypervisors support WC in VMs). The flow we use is:
1. In mlx4_en, allocate Tx QPs one by one instead of a range allocation,
and request "BF enabled QPs" if BF is supported for the function
2. In the ALLOC_RES FW command, change param1 to:
a. param1[23:0] - number of QPs
b. param1[31-24] - flags controlling QPs reservation
Bit 31 refers to Eth blueflame supported QPs. Those QPs must have
bits 6 and 7 unset in order to be used in Ethernet.
Bits 24-30 of the flags are currently reserved.
When a function tries to allocate a QP, it states the required attributes
for this QP. Those attributes are considered "best-effort". If an attribute,
such as Ethernet BF enabled QP, is a must-have attribute, the function has
to check that attribute is supported before trying to do the allocation.
In a lower layer of the code, mlx4_qp_reserve_range masks out the bits
which are unsupported. If SRIOV is used, the PF validates those attributes
and masks out unsupported attributes as well. In order to notify VFs which
attributes are supported, the VF uses QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. This command's
mailbox is filled by the PF, which notifies which QP allocation attributes
it supports.

This function derives the base address of the CQE from the CQE size,
and calculates the real CQE context segment in it from the factor
(this is like before). Before this change the code used the factor to
calculate the base address of the CQE as well.
The factor indicates in which segment of the cqe stride the cqe information
is located. For 32-byte strides, the segment is 0, and for 64 byte strides,
the segment is 1 (bytes 32..63). Using the factor was ok as long as we had
only 32 and 64 byte strides. However, with larger strides, the factor is zero,
and so cannot be used to calculate the base of the CQE.
The helper uses the same method of CQE buffer pulling made by all other
components that reads the CQE buffer (mlx4_ib driver and libmlx4).

Add a new argument for ndo_select_queue() callback that passes a
fallback handler. This gets invoked through netdev_pick_tx();
fallback handler is currently __netdev_pick_tx() as most drivers
invoke this function within their customized implementation in
case for skbs that don't need any special handling. This fallback
handler can then be replaced on other call-sites with different
queue selection methods (e.g. in packet sockets, pktgen etc).
This also has the nice side-effect that __netdev_pick_tx() is
then only invoked from netdev_pick_tx() and export of that
function to modules can be undone.

Currently, the tx queue were selected implicitly in ndo_dfwd_start_xmit(). The
will cause several issues:
- NETIF_F_LLTX were removed for macvlan, so txq lock were done for macvlan
instead of lower device which misses the necessary txq synchronization for
lower device such as txq stopping or frozen required by dev watchdog or
control path.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() was called with NULL txq which bypasses the net device
watchdog.
- dev_hard_start_xmit() does not check txq everywhere which will lead a crash
when tso is disabled for lower device.
Fix this by explicitly introducing a new param for .ndo_select_queue() for just
selecting queues in the case of l2 forwarding offload. netdev_pick_tx() was also
extended to accept this parameter and dev_queue_xmit_accel() was used to do l2
forwarding transmission.
With this fixes, NETIF_F_LLTX could be preserved for macvlan and there's no need
to check txq against NULL in dev_hard_start_xmit(). Also there's no need to keep
a dedicated ndo_dfwd_start_xmit() and we can just reuse the code of
dev_queue_xmit() to do the transmission.
In the future, it was also required for macvtap l2 forwarding support since it
provides a necessary synchronization method.

When the device tunneling offloads mode is vxlan do the following
- call SET_PORT with the relevant setting
- add DMFS steering vxlan rule for the device self and multicast mac addresses
of the form: {<ETH, outer-mac> <VXLAN, ANY vnid> <ETH, ANY mac>} --> RSS QP
- set relevant QPC fields in RSS context and RX ring QPs
- in TX flow, set WQE fields to generate HW checksum, and handle gso skbs
which are marked for encapsulation such that the HW will segment them properly.
- in RX flow, read HW offloaded checksum for encapsulated packets from the CQE
- advertize hw_enc_features and NETIF_F_GSO_UDP_TUNNEL to the networking stack
