net/mlx4_en: Optimizations to TX flow

This patchset contains optimizations to TX flow in mlx4_en driver. It also introduce
setting/getting tx copybreak, to enable controlling inline threshold dynamically.

TX flow optimizations was authored and posted to the mailing list by Eric
Dumazet [1] as a single patch. I splitted this patch to smaller patches,
Reviewed it and tested.
Changed from original patch:
- s/iowrite32be/iowrite32/, since ring->doorbell_qpn is stored as be32

The tx copybreak patch was also suggested by Eric Dumazet, and was edited and
reviewed by me. User space patch will be sent after kernel code is ready.

I am sending this patchset now since the merge window is near and don't want to
miss it.

More work need to do:
- Disable BF when xmit_more is in use
- Make TSO use xmit_more too. Maybe by splitting small TSO packets in the
  driver itself, to avoid extra cpu/memory costs of GSO before the driver
- Fix mlx4_en_xmit buggy handling of queue full in the middle of a burst
  partially posted to send queue using xmit_more

Eric, I edited the patches to have you as the Author and the first
signed-off-by. I hope it is ok with you (I wasn't sure if it is ok to sign by
you), anyway all the credit to those changes should go to you.

Patchset was tested and applied over commit 1e203c1a "(net: sched:
suspicious RCU usage in qdisc_watchdog")

Instead of setting inline threshold using module parameter only on
driver load, use set_tunable() to set it dynamically.
No need to store the threshold per ring, using instead the netdev global
priv->prof->inline_thold
Initial value still is set using the module parameter, therefore
backward compatability is kept.

Standard qdisc API to setup a timer implies an atomic operation on every
packet dequeue : qdisc_unthrottled()

It turns out this is not really needed for FQ, as FQ has no concept of
global qdisc throttling, being a qdisc handling many different flows,
some of them can be throttled, while others are not.

Fix is straightforward : add a 'bool throttle' to
qdisc_watchdog_schedule_ns(), and remove calls to qdisc_unthrottled()
in sch_fq.

The Openvswitch implementation is completely agnostic to the options
that are in use and can handle newly defined options without
further work. It does this by simply matching on a byte array
of options and allowing userspace to setup flows on this array.

As the size of the flow key grows, it can put some pressure on the
stack. This is particularly true in ovs_flow_cmd_set(), which needs several
copies of the key on the stack. One of those uses is logically separate,
so this factors it out to reduce stack pressure and improve readibility.

Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and
the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However,
as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable,
as in the case of pointers.

This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains
only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel
since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version
of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

Some tunnel formats have mechanisms for indicating that packets are

those types of packets to be matched.

As new protocols are added, the size of the flow key tends to
increase although few protocols care about all of the fields. In
order to optimize this for hashing and matching, OVS uses a variable
length portion of the key. However, when fields are extracted from
the packet we must still zero out the entire key.

This is no longer necessary now that OVS implements masking. Any
fields (or holes in the structure) which are not part of a given
protocol will be by definition not part of the mask and zeroed out
during lookup. Furthermore, since masking already uses variable
length keys this zeroing operation automatically benefits as well.

In principle, the only thing that needs to be done at this point
is remove the memset() at the beginning of flow. However, some
fields assume that they are initialized to zero, which now must be
done explicitly. In addition, in the event of an error we must also
zero out corresponding fields to signal that there is no valid data
present. These increase the total amount of code but very little of
it is executed in non-error situations.

Removing the memset() reduces the profile of ovs_flow_extract()
from 0.64% to 0.56% when tested with large packets on a 10G link.

For (most of) the Atheros bits, Kalle says:

"The only new feature is testmode support from me. Ben added a new method
to crash the firmware with an assert for debug purposes. As usual, we
have lots of smaller fixes from Michal. Matteo fixed a Kconfig

For the NFC bits, Samuel says:

"We've had major updates for TI and ST Microelectronics drivers, and a

- Target mode support for trf7970a
- Suspend/resume support for trf7970a
- DT properties additions to handle different quirks
- A bunch of fixes for smartphone IOP related issues

For ST Microelectronics' ST21NFCA and ST21NFCB drivers:

- ISO15693 support for st21nfcb
- checkpatch and sparse related warning fixes
- Code cleanups and a few minor fixes

Finally, Marvell added ISO15693 support to the NCI stack, together with a
couple of NCI fixes."

For the Bluetooth bits, Johan says:

"This 3.18 pull request replaces the one I did on Monday ("bluetooth-next
2014-09-22", which hasn't been pulled yet). The additions since the last
request are:

 - SCO connection fix for devices not supporting eSCO
 - Cleanups regarding the SCO establishment logic
 - Remove unnecessary return value from logging functions
 - Header compression fix for 6lowpan
 - Cleanups to the ieee802154/mrf24j40 driver

Here's a copy from previous request that this one replaces:

'
Here are some more patches for 3.18. They include various fixes to the
btusb HCI driver, a fix for LE SMP, as well as adding Jukka to the
MAINTAINERS file for generic 6LoWPAN (as requested by Alexander Aring).

I've held on to this pull request a bit since we were waiting for a SCO
related fix to get sorted out first. However, since the merge window is
getting closer I decided not to wait for it. If we do get the fix sorted
out there'll probably be a second small pull request later this week.
'"

And,

"Unless 3.17 gets delayed this will probably be our last -next pull request for
3.18. We've got:

  - New Marvell hardware supportr
  - Multicast support for 6lowpan
  - Several of 6lowpan fixes & cleanups
  - Fix for a (false-positive) lockdep warning in L2CAP
  - Minor btusb cleanup"

On top of all that comes the usual sort of updates to ath5k, ath9k,
ath10k, brcmfmac, mwifiex, and wil6210.  This time around there are
also a number of rtlwifi updates to enable some new hardware and
to reconcile the in-kernel drivers with some newer releases of the
Realtek vendor drivers.  Also of note is some device tree work for
the bcma bus.

Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

The following patchset contains another batch with Netfilter/IPVS updates
for net-next, they are:

1) Add abstracted ICMP codes to the nf_tables reject expression. We
   introduce four reasons to reject using ICMP that overlap in IPv4
   and IPv6 from the semantic point of view. This should simplify the
   maintainance of dual stack rule-sets through the inet table.

2) Move nf_send_reset() functions from header files to per-family
   nf_reject modules, suggested by Patrick McHardy.

3) We have to use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER) everywhere in the
   code now that br_netfilter can be modularized. Convert remaining spots
   in the network stack code.

4) Use rcu_barrier() in the nf_tables module removal path to ensure that
   we don't leave object that are still pending to be released via
   call_rcu (that may likely result in a crash).

5) Remove incomplete arch 32/64 compat from nft_compat. The original (bad)
   idea was to probe the word size based on the xtables match/target info
   size, but this assumption is wrong when you have to dump the information
   back to userspace.

6) Allow to filter from prerouting and postrouting in the nf_tables bridge.
   In order to emulate the ebtables NAT chains (which are actually simple
   filter chains with no special semantics), we have support filtering from
   this hooks too.

7) Add explicit module dependency between xt_physdev and br_netfilter.
   This provides a way to detect if the user needs br_netfilter from
   the configuration path. This should reduce the breakage of the
   br_netfilter modularization.

8) Cleanup coding style in ip_vs.h, from Simon Horman.

9) Fix crash in the recently added nf_tables masq expression. We have
   to register/unregister the notifiers to clean up the conntrack table
   entries from the module init/exit path, not from the rule addition /
   deletion path. From Arturo Borrero.

bridge: Add vlan filtering support for default pvid

This series adds default pvid support to vlan filtering in the bridge.
VLAN 1 (as recommended by 802.1q spec) is used as default pvid on ports.
Then the user can over-ride this configuration by configuring their
own vlan information.
The user can additionally change the default value through the
sysfs interface (netlink coming shortly).
The user can turn off default pvid functionality by setting default
pvid to 0.
This series changes the default behavior of the bridge when
vlan filtering is turned on.  Currently, ports without any vlan
filtering configured will not recevie any traffic at all.  This patch
changes the behavior of the above ports to receive only untagged traffic.

Since v3:
- allocated 'changed' bitmap on the heap and re-arrange code to clean it up.
- remove extra blank lines.
- Fix patch1 to build by itself.
- Fix error recover to not add vlan 0.
- Restructure nbp_vlan_init to remove uneeded variable.

Since v2:
- Fix handling of invalid values in sysfs interface.
- Add some additional log messages.
- Fix default_pvid handling when vlan filtering is compiled out.
- Fix sparse issues with new code.
- Fix how we located the old default pvid (added a helper function).

Since v1:
- Add ability to turn off default_pvid settings.
- Drop the automiatic filtering support based on configured vlan devices (will
  be its own series)

Currently when vlan filtering is turned on on the bridge, the bridge
will drop all traffic untill the user configures the filter.  This
isn't very nice for ports that don't care about vlans and just
want untagged traffic.

A concept of a default_pvid was recently introduced.  This patch
adds filtering support for default_pvid.   Now, ports that don't
care about vlans and don't define there own filter will belong
to the VLAN of the default_pvid and continue to receive untagged
traffic.

This filtering can be disabled by setting default_pvid to 0.
