tile: set hw_features and vlan_features in setup
This change allows the user to configure various features of the tile

Neither driver needs the ndo_fix_features or ndo_set_features callbacks,

net: add a temporary sanity check in skb_orphan()
David suggested to add a BUG_ON() to catch if some layer
sets skb->sk pointer without a corresponding destructor.
As skb can sit in a queue, it's mandatory to make sure the
socket cannot disappear, and it's usually done by taking a
reference on the socket, then releasing it from the skb
destructor.
This patch is a follow-up to commit c34a761231b5
("net: skb_orphan() changes") and will be reverted after
catching all possible offenders if any.

With the addition of the suppress operation
(7764a45a8f1fe74d4f7d301eaca2e558e7e2831a ("fib_rules: add .suppress
operation") we rely on accurate error reporting of the fib_rules.actions.
fib6_rule_action always returned -EAGAIN in case we could not find a
matching route and 0 if a rule was matched. This also included a match
for blackhole or prohibited rule actions which could get suppressed by
the new logic.
So adapt fib6_rule_action to always return the correct error code as
its counterpart fib4_rule_action does. This also fixes a possiblity of
nullptr-deref where we don't find a table, thus rt == NULL. Because
the condition rt != ip6_null_entry still holdes it seems we could later
get a nullptr bug on dereference rt->dst.
v2:
a) Fixed a brain fart in the commit msg (the rule => a table, etc). No

fib_rules: add .suppress operation
This change adds a new operation to the fib_rules_ops struct; it allows the
suppression of routing decisions if certain criteria are not met by its
results.
The first implemented constraint is a minimum prefix length added to the
structures of routing rules. If a rule is added with a minimum prefix length
>0, only routes meeting this threshold will be considered. Any other (more
general) routing table entries will be ignored.
When configuring a system with multiple network uplinks and default routes, it
is often convinient to reference the main routing table multiple times - but
omitting the default route. Using this patch and a modified "ip" utility, this
can be achieved by using the following command sequence:
$ ip route add table secuplink default via 10.42.23.1
$ ip rule add pref 100 table main prefixlength 1
$ ip rule add pref 150 fwmark 0xA table secuplink
With this setup, packets marked 0xA will be processed by the additional routing
table "secuplink", but only if no suitable route in the main routing table can
be found. By using a minimal prefixlength of 1, the default route (/0) of the
table "main" is hidden to packets processed by rule 100; packets traveling to
destinations with more specific routing entries are processed as usual.

As all tcp packets are orphaned by netem, TCP stack believes it can

In order to allow producers to send more packets, we want to
keep sk_wmem_alloc from reaching sk_sndbuf limit.
We can do that by accounting one byte per skb in netem queues,
so that TCP stack is not fooled too much.
Tested:
With above MQ/netem setup, scaling number of concurrent flows gives
linear results and no reorders/retransmits
Current net name space has only one genid for both IPv4 and IPv6, it has below
drawbacks:
- Add/delete an IPv4 address will invalidate all IPv6 routing table entries.
- Insert/remove XFRM policy will also invalidate both IPv4/IPv6 routing table
entries even when the policy is only applied for one address family.
Thus, this patch attempt to split one genid for two to cater for IPv4 and IPv6

The first patch for ixgbe from Greg Rose is the second submission. The
first submission of "ixgbe: Retain VLAN filtering in promiscuous + VT

submission.
Alex updates the ixgbe driver to use the generic helper pci_vfs_assigned
instead of the driver specific function ixgbe_vfs_are_assigned.
Don Skidmore provides 4 patches for ixgbe, the first being a fix for
flow control ethtool reporting. Originally ixgbe_device_supports_autoneg_fc()
was expected to be called by only copper devices, which lead to false
information being displayed via ethtool. Two other patches add support
for fixed fiber for SFP+ devices and the addition of a quad-port x520
adapter. The last patch simply bumps the driver version.
Emil Tantilov provides 3 fixes for ixgbe, two of which resolve
semaphore lock issues. The third fix resolves several issues in the
previous implementation of the SFF data dumps of SFP+ modules.
The remaining ixgbe and pci patches are from Jacob Keller. The pci
patches exposes bus speed, link speed and bus width so that drivers
can take advantage of this information. In addition, adds a pci function
which obtains minimum link width and speed. Jacob also provides the
ixgbe patch to incorporate the pci function. He provides a patch that

====================
This patchset is based on patch by Narendra_K@Dell.com
Once device which can change phys port id during its lifetime adopts this,

call_netdevice_notifiers(NETDEV_NETDEV_CHANGEPHYSPORTID, dev) to propagate
the change to userspace.

v5->v6: use uuid_le_gen for generating 16-byte phys port id for igb/igbvf
as suggested by BenH
1) Why do we need this, and why do existing facilities fail to provide
a way to accomplish this?
Currenty there's very hard to tell if two netdevs are using the same physical
port. For sr-iov this can be get by sysfs. For other mechanisms, like NPAR
there's very hard to do it (one must learn it from NIC BIOS). But even for
sr-iov there's no way to say if two netdevs are using the same phys port when
these are passed through to virtual guests.
This patchset provides the generic way of letting this information know to
userspace. This info can be used by apps like NetworkManager, teamd, Wicked,
ovs daemon, etc, to do smarter bonding decisions.
2) Why is the physical port ID defined as a 32 byte opaque cookie?
What formats and layouts need to be accomodated, and which
influenced the design of the ID?
For user to distinguish if two netdevs are using the same port, he only needs
to compare their phys port ids. Nothing else is needed. This id has no
structure for security reasons. VF should not know anything about PF.
3) Are IDs globally unique? Why or why not? If IDs should be
globally unique, but only in certain cases, what exactly are those
cases.
Most of the time only uniqueness needed is in scope of single machine.
There might be case when the id should be unique between couple of machines
in virtualization environment. Given that for example for igb/igbvf 16B uuid
is used, there is no problem for this case as well. But each driver can
implement this differently focusing the hw capabilities and needs.

net: add ndo to get id of physical port of the device
This patch adds a ndo for getting physical port of the device. Driver
which is aware of being virtual function of some physical port should
implement this ndo. This is applicable not only for IOV, but for other
solutions (NPAR, multichannel) as well. Basically if there is possible
to have multiple netdevs on the single hw port.

SW: Ring doorbell for WQE 0
SW: Build WQE 1 on the TX buffer, except the ownership bit
SW: Set ownership for WQE 1 on the TX buffer
HW: Read WQE 0 and then WQE 1, before doorbell was rung/BF was done for WQE 1
HW: Produce CQEs for WQE 0 and WQE 1
SW: Process the CQEs, and stamp WQE 0 and WQE 1 accordingly (on the TX buffer)
SW: Copy WQE 1 from the TX buffer to the BF register - ALREADY STAMPED!
HW: CQE error with index 0xFFFF - the BF WQE's control segment is STAMPED,
so the BF index is 0xFFFF. Error: Invalid Opcode.
As a result QP enters the error state and no traffic can be sent.
Solution:

tuntap: hardware vlan tx support
Inspired by commit f09e2249c4f5c7c13261ec73f5a7807076af0c8e (macvtap: restore
vlan header on user read). This patch adds hardware vlan tx support for
tuntap. This is done by copying vlan header directly into userspace in
tun_put_user() instead of doing it through __vlan_put_tag() in
dev_hard_start_xmit(). This eliminates one unnecessary memmove() in
vlan_insert_tag() for 802.1ad and 802.1q traffic.
pktgen test shows about 20% improvement for 802.1q traffic:

net/sctp: Refactor SCTP skb checksum computation
This patch consolidates the SCTP checksum calculation code from various
places to a single new function, sctp_compute_cksum(skb, offset).

virtio-net: put virtio net header inline with data
For small packets we can simplify xmit processing
by linearizing buffers with the header:
most packets seem to have enough head room
we can use for this purpose.
Since existing hypervisors require that header
is the first s/g element, we need a feature bit
for this.

This started out with fixing a sparse warning, then I realized that
the wrapper function bond_netpoll_info could just be removed
by rolling it into the enable code.

bonding: use pre-defined macro in bond_mode_name instead of magic number 0
We have BOND_MODE_ROUNDROBIN pre-defined as 0, and it's the lowest
mode number.
Use it to check the arg lower bound instead of magic number 0 in
bond_mode_name.

pch_gbe: Add MinnowBoard support
The MinnowBoard uses an AR803x PHY with the PCH GBE which requires
special handling. Use the MinnowBoard PCI Subsystem ID to detect this
and add a pci_device_id.driver_data structure and functions to handle
platform setup.
The AR803x does not implement the RGMII 2ns TX clock delay in the trace
routing nor via strapping. Add a detection method for the board and the
PHY and enable the TX clock delay via the registers.
This PHY will hibernate without link for 10 seconds. Ensure the PHY is
awake for probe and then disable hibernation. A future improvement would
be to convert pch_gbe to using PHYLIB and making sure we can wake the
PHY at the necessary times rather than permanently disabling it.
