The function flexcan_irq_state() checks the controller for CAN state
changes and pushes a skb with the new state and a timestamp into the
rx-offload framework.
This patch optimizes the function by only reading the timestamp, if a
state change is detected.

The skbs for classic CAN and CAN FD frames are allocated with seperate
functions: alloc_can_skb() and alloc_canfd_skb().
In order to support CAN FD frames via the rx-offload helper, the driver
itself has to allocate the skb (depending whether it received a classic
CAN or CAN FD frame), as the rx-offload helper cannot know which kind of
CAN frame the driver has received.
This patch moves the allocation of the skb into the struct
can_rx_offload::mailbox_read callbacks of the the flexcan and ti_hecc
driver and adjusts the rx-offload helper accordingly.

The Bosch MCAN hardware (3.1.0 and above) supports interrupt flag to
detect Protocol error in arbitration phase.
Transmit error statistics is currently not updated from the MCAN driver.
Protocol error in arbitration phase is a TX error and the network
statistics should be updated accordingly.
The member "tx_error" of "struct net_device_stats" should be incremented
as arbitration is a transmit protocol error. Also "arbitration_lost" of
"struct can_device_stats" should be incremented to report arbitration
lost.

According to the CAN Specification (see ISO 11898-1:2015, 8.3.4
Recovery Management), the M_CAN provides means for automatic
retransmission of frames that have lost arbitration or that
have been disturbed by errors during transmission. By default
automatic retransmission is enabled.
The Bosch MCAN controller has support for disabling automatic
retransmission.
To support time-triggered communication as described in ISO
11898-1:2015, chapter 9.2, the automatic retransmission may be
disabled via CCCR.DAR.
CAN_CTRLMODE_ONE_SHOT is used for disabling automatic retransmission.

Userspace can signal with CAN_CTRLMODE_BERR_REPORTING whether they need
reporting of bus errors (CAN_ERR_BUSERROR) or not.
However, xilinx_can driver currently always sends CAN_ERR_BUSERROR
frames to userspace on bus errors.
To improve performance on error conditions when bus error reporting is
not needed, avoid sending CAN_ERR_BUSERROR frames unless requested via
CAN_CTRLMODE_BERR_REPORTING.
The error interrupt is still kept enabled as there is no dedicated state
transition interrupt, but just disabling error frame submission still
yields a significant performance improvement. In a simple test with
continuous bus errors and no userspace programs reading/writing CAN I
saw system CPU load reduced by 1/3.

net: dsa: mv88e6xxx: Add support for port mirroring
This patch series add support for port mirroring in the mv88e6xx switch driver.
The first patch changes the set_egress_port function to allow different egress
ports for egress and ingress traffic. The second patch adds the actual code for
port mirroring support.
Tested on a 88E6176 with:
tc qdisc add dev wan0 clsact
tc filter add dev wan0 ingress matchall skip_sw \
action mirred egress mirror dev lan2
tc filter add dev wan0 egress matchall skip_sw \
action mirred egress mirror dev lan3
Changes in v3
- Use enum for egress traffic direction
- Keep track of egress ports on mv88e6390
- Move booleans in struct for better structure packing
Changes in v2
- Support mirroring egress and ingress traffic to different ports
- Check for invalid configurations when multiple ports are mirrored

Add support for configuring port mirroring through the cls_matchall
classifier. We do a full ingress and/or egress capture towards a
capture port. It allows setting a different capture port for ingress
and egress traffic.
It keeps track of the mirrored ports and the destination ports to
prevent changes to the capture port while other ports are being
mirrored.

The LAN743x Ethernet controller provides two independent PTP event
channels. Each one can be used to generate a periodic output from
the PTP clock. The output can be routed to any one of the available
GPIO pins on the device.
The PTP clock API can now be used to:
- select any LAN743x GPIO pin to function as a periodic output
- select either LAN743x PTP event channel to generate the output
The LAN7430 has 4 GPIO pins that are multiplexed with its internal
PHY LED control signals. A pin assigned to the LED control function
will be assigned to the GPIO function if selected for PTP periodic
output.

====================
Unlock new potential in SJA1105 with PTP system timestamping
The SJA1105 being an automotive switch means it is designed to live in a
set-and-forget environment, far from the configure-at-runtime nature of
Linux. Frequently resetting the switch to change its static config means
it loses track of its PTP time, which is not good.
This patch series implements PTP system timestamping for this switch
(using the API introduced for SPI here:
https://www.mail-archive.com/netdev@vger.kernel.org/msg316725.html),
adding the following benefits to the driver:
- When under control of a user space PTP servo loop (ptp4l, phc2sys),
the loss of sync during a switch reset is much more manageable, and
the switch still remains in the s2 (locked servo) state.
- When synchronizing the switch using the software technique (based on
reading clock A and writing the value to clock B, as opposed to
relying on hardware timestamping), e.g. by using phc2sys, the sync
accuracy is vastly improved due to the fact that the actual switch PTP
time can now be more precisely correlated with something of better
precision (CLOCK_REALTIME). The issue is that SPI transfers are
inherently bad for measuring time with low jitter, but the newly
introduced API aims to alleviate that issue somewhat.
This series is also a requirement for a future patch set that adds full
time-aware scheduling offload support for the switch.

The purpose here is to avoid ptp4l fail due to this condition:
timed out while polling for tx timestamp
increasing tx_timestamp_timeout may correct this issue, but it is likely caused by a driver bug
port 1: send peer delay request failed
So either reset the switch before the management frame was sent, or
after it was timestamped as well, but not in the middle.
The condition may arise either due to a true timeout (i.e. because
re-uploading the static config takes time), or due to the TX timestamp
actually getting lost due to reset. For the former we can increase
tx_timestamp_timeout in userspace, for the latter we need this patch.
Locking all traffic during switch reset does not make sense at all,
though. Forcing all CPU-originated traffic to potentially block waiting
for a sleepable context to send > 800 bytes over SPI is not a good idea.
Flows that are autonomously forwarded by the switch will get dropped
anyway during switch reset no matter what. So just let all other
CPU-originated traffic be dropped as well.

The PTP time of the switch is not preserved when uploading a new static
configuration. Work around this hardware oddity by reading its PTP time
before a static config upload, and restoring it afterwards.
Static config changes are expected to occur at runtime even in scenarios
directly related to PTP, i.e. the Time-Aware Scheduler of the switch is
programmed in this way.
Perhaps the larger implication of this patch is that the PTP .gettimex64
and .settime functions need to be exposed to sja1105_main.c, where the
PTP lock needs to be held during this entire process. So their core
implementation needs to move to some common functions which get exposed
in sja1105_ptp.h.

Through the PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED ioctl, it is possible for userspace
applications (i.e. phc2sys) to compensate for the delays incurred while
reading the PHC's time.
The task itself of taking the software timestamp is delegated to the SPI
subsystem, through the newly introduced API in struct spi_transfer. The
goal is to cross-timestamp I/O operations on the switch's PTP clock with
values in the local system clock (CLOCK_REALTIME). For that we need to
understand a bit of the hardware internals.
The 'read PTP time' message is a 12 byte structure, first 4 bytes of
which represent the SPI header, and the last 8 bytes represent the
64-bit PTP time. The switch itself starts processing the command
immediately after receiving the last bit of the address, i.e. at the
middle of byte 3 (last byte of header). The PTP time is shadowed to a
buffer register in the switch, and retrieved atomically during the
subsequent SPI frames.
A similar thing goes on for the 'write PTP time' message, although in
that case the switch waits until the 64-bit PTP time becomes fully
available before taking any action. So the byte that needs to be
software-timestamped is byte 11 (last) of the transfer.
The patch creates a common (and local) sja1105_xfer implementation for
the SPI I/O, and offers 3 front-ends:
- sja1105_xfer_u32 and sja1105_xfer_u64: these are capable of optionally
requesting a PTP timestamp
- sja1105_xfer_buf: this is for large transfers (e.g. the static config
buffer) and other misc data, and there is no point in giving
timestamping capabilities to this.

The need_wakeup flag for Tx might not be set for AF_XDP sockets that
are only used to send packets. This happens if there is at least one
outstanding packet that has not been completed by the hardware and we
get that corresponding completion (which will not generate an
interrupt since interrupts are disabled in the napi poll loop) between
the time we stopped processing the Tx completions and interrupts are
enabled again. In this case, the need_wakeup flag will have been
cleared at the end of the Tx completion processing as we believe we
will get an interrupt from the outstanding completion at a later point
in time. But if this completion interrupt occurs before interrupts
are enable, we lose it and should at that point really have set the
need_wakeup flag since there are no more outstanding completions that
can generate an interrupt to continue the processing. When this
happens, user space will see a Tx queue need_wakeup of 0 and skip
issuing a syscall, which means will never get into the Tx processing
again and we have a deadlock.
This patch introduces a quick fix for this issue by just setting the
need_wakeup flag for Tx to 1 all the time. I am working on a proper
fix for this that will toggle the flag appropriately, but it is more
challenging than I anticipated and I am afraid that this patch will
not be completed before the merge window closes, therefore this easier
fix for now. This fix has a negative performance impact in the range
of 0% to 4%. Towards the higher end of the scale if you have driver
and application on the same core and issue a lot of packets, and
towards no negative impact if you use two cores, lower transmission
speeds and/or a workload that also receives packets.
