In order to access HW registers driver needs to acquire a PTT entry
[mapping between bar memory and internal chip address].
Since acquiring PTT entries could fail [at least in theory] as their
number is finite and other flows can hold them, we reserve special PTT
entries for 'important' enough flows - ones we want to guarantee that
would not be susceptible to such issues.
One such special entry is the 'main' PTT which is meant to be used in
flows such as chip initialization and de-initialization.
However, there are other flows that are also using that same entry
for their own purpose, and might run concurrently with the original
flows [notice that for most cases using the main-ptt by mistake, such
a race is still impossible, at least today].
This patch re-organizes the various functions that currently use the
main_ptt in one of two ways:
- If a function shouldn't use the main_ptt it starts acquiring and
releasing it's own PTT entry and use it instead. Notice if those
functions previously couldn't fail, they now can [as acquisition
might fail].
- Change the prototypes so that the main_ptt would be received as
a parameter [instead of explicitly accessing it].
This prevents the future risk of adding codes that introduces new
use-cases for flows using the main_ptt, ones that might be in race
with the actual 'main' flows.

PTT entries are per-hwfn; If some errneous flow is trying
to use a PTT belonging to a differnet hwfn warn user, as this
can break every register accessing flow later and is very hard
to root-cause.

====================
rxrpc: Miscellany
Here's a set of patches that make some minor changes to AF_RXRPC:
(1) Store error codes in struct rxrpc_call::error as negative codes and
only convert to positive in recvmsg() to avoid confusion inside the
kernel.
(2) Note the result of trying to abort a call (this fails if the call is
already 'completed').
(3) Don't abort on temporary errors whilst processing challenge and
response packets, but rather drop the packet and wait for
retransmission.
And also adds some more tracing:
(4) Protocol errors.
(5) Received abort packets.
(6) Changes in the Rx window size due to ACK packet information.
(7) Client call initiation (to allow the rxrpc_call struct pointer, the
wire call ID and the user ID/afs_call pointer to be cross-referenced).

100GbE Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2017-04-05
This series contains updates to fm10k only.
Phil Turnbull from Oracle fixes an issue where the argument provided to
FM10K_REMOVED macro was not what was expecting.
Jake modifies the driver to replace the bitwise operators and defines with
a BITMAP and enumeration values to avoid race conditions. Also future
proof the driver so that developers do not have to remember to re-size the
bitmaps when adding new values. Fixed the wording of a code comment to
avoid stating that we return a value for a void function.
Ngai-Mint makes sure that when configuring the receive ring, we make sure
the receive queue is disabled. Fixed an issue where interfaces were
resetting because the transmit mailbox FIFO was becoming full since the
host was not ready, so ensure the host is ready before queueing up
mailbox messages.

L2TP:Adjust intf MTU, add underlay L3, L2 hdrs.
Existing L2TP kernel code does not derive the optimal MTU for Ethernet
pseudowires and instead leaves this to a userspace L2TP daemon or
operator. If an MTU is not specified, the existing kernel code chooses
an MTU that does not take account of all tunnel header overheads, which
can lead to unwanted IP fragmentation. When L2TP is used without a
control plane (userspace daemon), we would prefer that the kernel does a
better job of choosing a default pseudowire MTU, taking account of all
tunnel header overheads, including IP header options, if any. This patch
addresses this.
Change-set is organized as a two part patch series, with one patch
introducing a new kernel function to compute the IP overhead on a
socket, and the other patch using this new kernel function to compute
the default L2TP MTU for an Ethernet pseudowire.
Existing code also seems to assume an Ethernet (non-jumbo) underlay. The
change proposed here uses the PMTU mechanism and the dst entry in the
L2TP tunnel socket to directly pull up the underlay MTU (as the baseline
number on top of which the encapsulation headers are factored in).
An default MTU value of 1500 bytes is assumed as a fallback only if
this fails.
Fixed the kbuild test robot error in the previous posting.

A new function, kernel_sock_ip_overhead(), is provided
to calculate the cumulative overhead imposed by the IP
Header and IP options, if any, on a socket's payload.
The new function returns an overhead of zero for sockets
that do not belong to the IPv4 or IPv6 address families.
This is used in the L2TP code path to compute the
total outer IP overhead on the L2TP tunnel socket when
calculating the default MTU for Ethernet pseudowires.

ftgmac100: Rework batch 1 - Link & Interrupts
This is version 2 of the first batch of updates to the
ftgmac100 driver.
Essentially:
- A few misc cleanups
- Fixing link speed & duplex handling (including dealing with
an Aspeed requirement to double reset the controller when
the speed changes)
- And addition of a reset task workqueue which will be used
for delaying the re-initialization of the controller
- Fixing a number of issues with how interrupts and NAPI
are dealt with.
Subsequent batches will rework and improve the rx path, the
tx path, and add a bunch of features and fixes.
Version 2 addresses some review comments to patches 5 and 10
(see version history in the respective emails).

First, don't look at the interrupt status in the poll loop
to decide what to poll. It's wrong. If we have run out of
budget, we may still have RX packets to unqueue but no more
RX interrupt pending.
So instead move the code looking at the interrupt status
into the interrupt handler where it belongs. That avoids a slow
MMIO read in the NAPI fast path. We keep the abnormal interrupts
enabled while NAPI is scheduled.
While at it, actually do something useful in the "error" cases:
On AHB bus error, trigger the new reset task, that's about all
we can do. On RX packet fifo or descriptor overflows, we need
to restart the MAC after having freed things up. So set a flag
that NAPI will see and use to perform that restart after
harvesting the RX ring.
Finally, we shouldn't complete NAPI if there are still outgoing
packets that will need harvesting. Waiting for more interrupts
is less efficient than letting NAPI run a while longer while
the queue drains.

The HW requires a full MAC reset when changing the speed.
Additionally the Aspeed documentation spells out that the
MAC needs to be reset twice with a 10us interval.
We thus move the speed setting and top level reset code
into a new ftgmac100_reset_and_config_mac() function which
handles both. Move the ring pointers initialization there
too in order to reflect the HW change.
Also reduce the timeout for the MAC reset as it shouldn't
take more than 300 clock cycles according to the doc.

Detection of watchdog timeout of Octeon cores is flawed and susceptible to
false alarms. Refactor by removing the detection code, and in its place,
leverage existing code that monitors for an indication from the NIC
firmware that an Octeon core crashed; expand the meaning of the indication
to "an Octeon core crashed or its watchdog timer expired". Detection of
watchdog timeout is now delegated to an exception handler in the NIC
firmware; this is free of false alarms.
Also if there's an Octeon core crash or watchdog timeout:
(1) Disable VF Ethernet links.
(2) Decrement the module refcount by an amount equal to the number of
active VFs of the NIC whose Octeon core crashed or had a watchdog
timeout. The refcount will continue to reflect the active VFs of
other liquidio NIC(s) (if present) whose Octeon cores are faultless.
Item (2) is needed to avoid the case of not being able to unload the driver
because the module refcount is stuck at some non-zero number. There is
code that, in normal cases, decrements the refcount upon receiving a
message from the firmware that a VF driver was unloaded. But in
exceptional cases like an Octeon core crash or watchdog timeout, arrival of
that particular message from the firmware might be unreliable. That normal
case code is changed to not touch the refcount in the exceptional case to
avoid contention (over the refcount) with the liquidio_watchdog kernel
thread who will carry out item (2).

Interfaces will reset whenever the TX mailbox FIFO has become full. This
occurs more frequently whenever the IES API application is not running
to process and clear the messages in the FIFO. Thus, this could lead to
situations where the interface would enter an infinite reset loop. That
is: if the interface is trying to synchronize a huge number of unicast
and multicast entries with the IES API application, the TX mailbox FIFO
will become full and the interface resets. Once the interface exits
reset, it'll try to synchronize the unicast and multicast entries again.
Ergo, this creates an infinite loop. Other actions such as multiple
mulitcast mode or up/down transitions will fill the TX mailbox FIFO and
induce the interface to reset. To correct these situations, check if the
interface's "host_ready" flag is enabled before enqueuing any messages
to the TX mailbox FIFO. This check will be conducted by a function call.
Lastly, this issue mainly affects the PF and, thus, the VF is exempt.

If some code path executes fm10k_service_event_schedule(), it is
guaranteed that we only queue the service task once, since we use
__FM10K_SERVICE_SCHED flag. Unfortunately this has a side effect that if
a service request occurs while we are currently running the watchdog, it
is possible that we will fail to notice the request and ignore it until
the next time the request occurs.
This can cause problems with pf/vf mailbox communication and other
service event tasks. To avoid this, introduce a FM10K_SERVICE_REQUEST
bit. When we successfully schedule (and set the _SCHED bit) the service
task, we will clear this bit. However, if we are unable to currently
schedule the service event, we just set the new SERVICE_REQUEST bit.
Finally, after the service event completes, we will re-schedule if the
request bit has been set.
This should ensure that we do not miss any service event schedules,
since we will re-schedule it once the currently running task finishes.
This means that for each request, we will always schedule the service
task to run at least once in full after the request came in.
This will avoid timing issues that can occur with the service event
scheduling. We do pay a cost in re-running many tasks, but all the
service event tasks use either flags to avoid duplicate work, or are
tolerant of being run multiple times.

Replace bitwise operators and #defines with a BITMAP and enumeration
values. This is similar to how we handle the "state" values as well.
This has two distinct advantages over the old method. First, we ensure
correctness of operations which are currently problematic due to race
conditions. Suppose that two kernel threads are running, such as the
watchdog and an ethtool ioctl, and both modify flags. We'll say that the
watchdog is CPU A, and the ethtool ioctl is CPU B.
CPU A sets FLAG_1, which can be seen as
CPU A read FLAGS
CPU A write FLAGS | FLAG_1
CPU B sets FLAG_2, which can be seen as
CPU B read FLAGS
CPU A write FLAGS | FLAG_2
However, "|=" and "&=" operators are not actually atomic. So this could
be ordered like the following:
CPU A read FLAGS -> variable
CPU B read FLAGS -> variable
CPU A write FLAGS (variable | FLAG_1)
CPU B write FLAGS (variable | FLAG_2)
Notice how the 2nd write from CPU B could actually undo the write from
CPU A because it isn't guaranteed that the |= operation is atomic.
In practice the race windows for most flag writes is incredibly narrow
so it is not easy to isolate issues. However, the more flags we have,
the more likely they will cause problems. Additionally, if such
a problem were to arise, it would be incredibly difficult to track down.
Second, there is an additional advantage beyond code correctness. We can
now automatically size the BITMAP if more flags were added, so that we
do not need to remember that flags is u32 and thus if we added too many
flags we would over-run the variable. This is not a likely occurrence
for fm10k driver, but this patch can serve as an example for other
drivers which have many more flags.
This particular change does have a bit of trouble converting some of the
idioms previously used with the #defines for flags. Specifically, when
converting FM10K_FLAG_RSS_FIELD_IPV[46]_UDP flags. This whole operation
was actually quite problematic, because we actually stored flags
separately. This could more easily show the problem of the above
re-ordering issue.
This is really difficult to test whether atomics make a difference in
practical scenarios, but you can ensure that basic functionality remains
the same. This patch has a lot of code coverage, but most of it is
relatively simple.
