Allow the VF to setup its own MAC address if the PF has not administratively
set it for the VF. To do that, we should always store the MAC address
from the firmware. There are 2 cases:
1. The MAC address is valid. This MAC address is assigned by the PF and
it needs to override the current VF MAC address.
2. The MAC address is zero. The VF will use a random MAC address by default.
By storing this 0 MAC address in the VF structure, it will allow the VF
user to change the MAC address later using ndo_set_mac_address() when
it sees that the stored MAC address is 0.

This is the initial implementation of the new OGM protocol
(version 2). It has been designed to work on top of the
newly added ELP.
In the previous version the OGM protocol was used to both
measure link qualities and flood the network with the metric
information. In this version the protocol is in charge of
the latter task only, leaving the former to ELP.
This means being able to decouple the interval used by the
neighbor discovery from the OGM broadcasting, which revealed
to be costly in dense networks and needed to be relaxed so
leading to a less responsive routing protocol.

This parameter can be set individually on each interface and

to set it to a higher (= slower) value on interfaces which
have a more static characteristic (e.g. wired interfaces)
or very dense neighbourhoods to reduce overhead.

The B.A.T.M.A.N. protocol originally only used a single
message type (called OGM) to determine the link qualities to
the direct neighbors and spreading these link quality
information through the whole mesh. This procedure is
summarized on the BATMAN concept page and explained in
details in the RFC draft published in 2008.
This approach was chosen for its simplicity during the
protocol design phase and the implementation. However, it
also bears some drawbacks:
* Wireless interfaces usually come with some packet loss,
therefore a higher broadcast rate is desirable to allow
a fast reaction on flaky connections.
Other interfaces of the same host might be connected to
Ethernet LANs / VPNs / etc which rarely exhibit packet
loss would benefit from a lower broadcast rate to reduce
overhead.
* It generally is more desirable to detect local link
quality changes at a faster rate than propagating all
these changes through the entire mesh (the far end of
the mesh does not need to care about local link quality
changes that much). Other optimizations strategies, like
reducing overhead, might be possible if OGMs weren't
used for all tasks in the mesh at the same time.
As a result detecting local link qualities shall be handled
by an independent message type, ELP, whereas the OGM message
type remains responsible for flooding the mesh with these
link quality information and determining the overall path
transmit qualities.

This series contains updates to e1000e, igb and igbvf.
Raanan provides updates for e1000e, first increases the ULP timer since it
now takes longer for the ULP exit to complete on Skylake. Fixes the
configuration of the internal hardware PHY clock gating mechanism, which was
causing packet loss due to mis configuring. Fixed additional ULP
configuration settings which were not being properly cleared after cable
connect in V-Pro capable systems. Added support for more i219 devices.
Takuma Ueba provides a fix for I210 where IPv6 autoconf test sometimes
fails due to DAD NS for link-local is not transmitted. To avoid this
issue, we need to wait until 1000BASE-T status register "Remote receiver
status OK".
Todd provides a patch to override EEPROM WoL settings for specific OEM
devices. Then renamed igb defines to be more generic, since the define
E1000_MRQC_ENABLE_RSS_4Q enables 4 and 8 queues depending on the part.
Roland Hii fixes an issue where only the half cycle time of less than or
equal to 70 millisecond uses the I210 clock output function. His patch
adds additional conditions when half cycle time is equal to 125 or 250 or
500 millisecond to use the clock output function.
Alex Duyck adds support for generic transmit checksums for igb and igbvf.
Jon Maxwell fixes an issues where customer applications are registering
and un-registering multicast addresses every few seconds which is leading
to many "Link is up" messages in the logs as a result of the
netif_carrier_off(netdev) in igbvf_msix_other(). So remove the
link is up message when registering multicast addresses.
Corinna Vinschen provides a fix for when switching off VLAN offloading on
i350, the VLAN interface becomes unusable.

dev_close() when running ethtool offline self test. Since dev_close()
causes IFF_UP to be cleared which will remove the interfaces routes

Now the source address comes from vrf0.
The ipv4 function for selecting source address takes a const argument.
Removing the const requires touching a lot of places, so instead
l3mdev_master_ifindex_rcu is changed to take a const argument and then
do the typecast to non-const as required by netdev_master_upper_dev_get_rcu.
This is similar to what l3mdev_fib_table_rcu does.
IPv6 for unnumbered interfaces appears to be selecting the addresses
properly.

By documenting these compat stings they may be used in DTSs shipped, for
example as part of ROMs. They must be used in conjunction with the Gen2
fallback compat string. At this time there are no known differences between
the r8a779[234] IP blocks and that implemented by the driver for the Gen2
fallback compat string. Thus there is no need to update the driver as the
use of the Gen2 fallback compat string will activate the correct code in

Add fallback compatibility string for R-Car Gen 1 and Gen2.
In the case of Renesas R-Car hardware we know that there are generations of
SoCs, e.g. Gen 1 and Gen 2. But beyond that its not clear what the
relationship between IP blocks might be. For example, I believe that
r8a7779 is older than r8a7778 but that doesn't imply that the latter is a
descendant of the former or vice versa.
We can, however, by examining the documentation and behaviour of the
hardware at run-time observe that the current driver implementation appears
to be compatible with the IP blocks on SoCs within a given generation.
For the above reasons and convenience when enabling new SoCs a
per-generation fallback compatibility string scheme being adopted for

====================
new ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS API
History:
v9
- add 'link' in macro, struct and function names
- rename ethtool_link_ksettings::parent -> ::base
- remove un-needed mlx4 en_dbg_enabled() companion patch
- note: bitmap u32[] API patches were merged separately by Kan Liang
v8
- bitmap u32 API returns number of bits copied, unit tests updated
v7
- module_exit in test_bitmap
v6
- fix copy_from_user in user/kernel handshake
v5
note: please see v4 bullets for a question regarding bitmap.c
- minor fix to make allyesconfig/allmodconfig
v4
- removed typedef for link mode bitmaps
- moved bitmap<->u32[] conversion routines to bitmap.c . This is the
naive implementation. I have an endian-aware version that uses
memcpy/memset as much as possible, but I find it harder to follow
(see http://paste.ubuntu.com/13863722/). Please let me know if I
should use it instead.
- fixes suggested by Ben Hutchings
v3
- rebased v2 on top of latest net-next, minor checkpatch/printf %*pb
updates
v2
- keep return 0 in get_settings when successful, instead of
propagating positive result from driver's get_settings callback.
v1
- original submission
The main goal of this series is to support ethtool link mode masks
larger than 32 bits. It implements a new ioctl pair
(ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS/SLINKSETTINGS), its associated callbacks
(get/set_link_ksettings) and a new struct ethtool_link_settings, which
should eventually replace legacy ethtool_cmd. Internally, the kernel
uses fixed length link mode masks defined at compilation time in
ethtool.h (for now: 31 bits), that can be increased by changing
__ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_LAST in ethtool.h (absolute max is 4064 bits,
checked at compile time), and the user/kernel interface allows this
length to be arbitrary within 1..4064. This should allow some
flexibility without using too much heap/stack space, at the cost of a
small kernel/user handshake for the user to determine the sizes of
those bitmaps.
Along the way, I chose to drop in the new structure the 3 ethtool_cmd
fields marked "deprecated" (transceiver/maxrxpkt/maxtxpkt). They are
still available for old drivers via the (old) ETHTOOL_GSET/SSET API,
but are not available to drivers that switch to new API. Of those 3
fields, ethtool_cmd::transceiver seems to be still actively used by
several drivers, maybe we should not consider this field deprecated?
The 2 other fields are basically not used. This transition requires
some care in the way old and new ethtool talk to the kernel.
More technical details provided in the description for main patch. In
particular details about backward compatibility properties.
Some open questions:
- the kernel/interface multiplexes the "tell me the bitmap length"
handshake and the "give me the settings" inside the new
ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS cmd. I was thinking of making this into 2
separate cmds: 1 cmd ETHTOOL_GKERNELPROPERTIES which would be
kernel-wide rather than device-specific, would return properties
like "length of the link mode bitmaps", and possibly others. And
ETHTOOL_GLINKSETTINGS would expect the proper bitmaps
- the link mode bitmaps are piggybacked at tail of the new struct
ethtool_link_settings. Since its user-visible definition does not
assume specific bitmap width, I am using a 0-length array as the
publicly visible placeholder. But then, the kernel needs to
specialize it (struct ethtool_link_ksettings) to specify its
current link mode masks. This means that kernel code is "littered"
with "ksettings->base.field" to access "field" inside
ethtool_settings:
+ I could use ethtool_link_settings everywhere (instead of a new
ethtool_ksettings) and an container_of accessor (or a plain cast)
to retrieve the link mode masks?
+ or: we could decide to make the link mode masks statically
bounded again, ie. make their width public, but larger than
current 32, and unchangeable forever. This would make everything
straightforward, but we might hit limits later, or have an
unneeded memory/stack usage for unused bits.
any preference?
- I foresee bugs where people use the legacy/deprecated SUPPORTED_x
macros instead of the new ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_x_BIT enums in the new
get/set_link_ksettings callbacks. Not sure how to prevent problems
with this.
The only driver which was converted for now is mlx4. I am not
considering fcoe as fully converted, but I updated it a minima to be
able to remove __ethtool_get_settings, now known as
__ethtool_get_link_ksettings.
Tested with legacy and "future" ethtool on 64b x86 kernel and 32+64b
ethtool, and on a 32b x86 kernel + 32b ethtool.
