Some Hypervisors detach VFs from VMs by instantly causing an FLR event
to be generated for a VF.

In the mlx4 case, this will cause that VF's comm channel to be disabled
before the VM has an opportunity to invoke the VF device's "shutdown"
method.

The result is that the VF driver on the VM will experience a command
timeout during the shutdown process when the Hypervisor does not deliver
a command-completion event to the VM.

To avoid FW command timeouts on the VM when the driver's shutdown method
is invoked, we detect the absence of the VF's comm channel at the very
start of the shutdown process. If the comm-channel has already been
disabled, we cause all FW commands during the device shutdown process to
immediately return success (and thus avoid all command timeouts).

mlx4_en_DUMP_ETH_STATS took the *counter mutex* and then
called the FW command, with WRAPPED attribute. As a result, the fw command
is wrapped on the Hypervisor when it calls mlx4_en_DUMP_ETH_STATS.
The FW command wrapper flow on the hypervisor takes the *slave_cmd_mutex*
during processing.

At the same time, a VF could be in the process of coming up, and could
call mlx4_QUERY_FUNC_CAP.  On the hypervisor, the command flow takes the
*slave_cmd_mutex*, then executes mlx4_QUERY_FUNC_CAP_wrapper.
mlx4_QUERY_FUNC_CAP wrapper calls mlx4_get_default_counter_index(),
which takes the *counter mutex*. DEADLOCK.

The fix is that the DUMP_ETH_STATS fw command should be called with
the NATIVE attribute, so that on the hypervisor, this command does not
enter the wrapper flow.

Since the Hypervisor no longer goes through the wrapper code, we also
simply return 0 in mlx4_DUMP_ETH_STATS_wrapper (i.e.the function succeeds,
but the returned data will be all zeroes).
No need to test if it is the Hypervisor going through the wrapper.

Read current vlan protocol as part of the vf configuration state.

Upon setting vf vlan protocol to 802.1ad, we use a mechanism of handshake
to verify that both the vf and the pf driver version support it.
The handshake uses the command QUERY_FUNC_CAP:
- The vf sets a pre-defined support bit in input modifier.
- A pf that supports the feature sends the request to the vf through a
  pre-defined field in the output mailbox.
- In case vf does not support the feature, the pf will fail the control
  command (in this case, IP link tool command to set the vf vlan
  protocol to 802.1ad).

When switching from polling-based fw commands to event-based fw
commands, there is a race condition which could cause a fw command
in another task to hang: that task will keep waiting for the polling
sempahore, but may never be able to acquire it. This is due to
mlx4_cmd_use_events, which "down"s the sempahore back to 0.

During driver initialization, this is not a problem, since no other
tasks which invoke FW commands are active.

However, there is a problem if the driver switches to polling mode
and then back to event mode during normal operation.

The "test_interrupts" feature does exactly that.
Running "ethtool -t <eth device> offline" causes the PF driver to
temporarily switch to polling mode, and then back to event mode.
(Note that for VF drivers, such switching is not performed).

Fix this by adding a read-write semaphore for protection when
switching between modes.

Due to HW limitations, indexes to MAC and VLAN tables are always taken
from the table of the actual port. So, if a resource holds an index to
a table, it may refer to different values during the lifetime of the
resource,  unless the tables are mirrored. Also, even when
driver is not in HA mode the policy of allocating an index to these
tables is such to make sure, as much as possible, that when the time
comes the mirroring will be successful. This means that in multifunction
mode the allocation of a free index in a port's table tries to make sure
that the same index in the other's port table is also free.

Under HA mode, steering rules set by VFs should be mirrored on both
ports of the device so packets will be accepted no matter on which
port they arrived.

Since getting into HA mode is done dynamically when the user bonds mlx4
Ethernet netdevs, we keep hold of the VF DMFS rule mbox with the port
value flipped (1->2,2->1) and execute the mirroring when getting into
HA mode. Later, when going out of HA mode, we unset the mirrored rules.

By design, when no default MAC addresses are set in the Hypervisor for VFs,
the VFs are passed zero-macs. When such a MAC is received by the VF, it
generates a random MAC address and registers that MAC address
with the Hypervisor.

This random mac generation is currently done in the mlx4_en module.
There is a problem, though, if the mlx4_ib module is loaded by a VF before
the mlx4_en module. In this case, for RoCE, mlx4_ib will see the un-replaced
zero-mac and register that zero-mac as part of QP1 initialization.

Having a zero-mac in the port's MAC table creates problems for a
Baseboard Management Console. The BMC occasionally sends packets with a
zero-mac destination MAC. If there is a zero-mac present in the port's
MAC table, the FW will send such BMC packets to the host driver rather than
to the wire, and BMC will stop working.

To address this problem, we move the replacement of zero-mac addresses
with random-mac addresses to procedure mlx4_slave_cap(), which is part of the
driver startup for VFs, and is before activation of mlx4_ib and mlx4_en.
As a result, zero-mac addresses will never be registered in the port MAC table
by the driver.

In addition, when mlx4_en does initialize the net device, it needs to set
the NET_ADDR_RANDOM flag in the netdev structure if the address was
randomly generated. This is done so that udev on the VM does not create
a new device name after each VF probe (VM boot and such). To accomplish this,
we add a per-port flag in mlx4_dev which gets set whenever mlx4_core replaces
a zero-mac with a randomly-generated mac. This flag is examined when mlx4_en
initializes the net-device.

Previously, mlx4_en allocated EQs and used them exclusively.
This affected RoCE performance, as applications which are
events sensitive were limited to use only the legacy EQs.

Change that by introducing an EQ pool. This pool is managed
by mlx4_core. EQs are assigned to ports (when there are limited
number of EQs, multiple ports could be assigned to the same EQs).

An exception to this rule is the ASYNC EQ which handles various events.

Legacy EQs are completely removed as all EQs could be shared.

When a consumer (mlx4_ib/mlx4_en) requests an EQ, it asks for
EQ serving on a specific port. The core driver calculates which
EQ should be assigned to that request.

Because IRQs are shared between IB and Ethernet modules, their
names only include the PCI device BDF address.

In SRIOV, both the PF and the VF may attempt device recovery whenever they
assume that the device is not functioning.  When the PF driver resets the
device, the VF should detect this and attempt to reinitialize itself.

The VF must be able to reset itself under all circumstances, even
if the PF is not responsive.

The VF shall reset itself in the following cases:

1. Commands are not processed within reasonable time over the communication channel.
This is done considering device state and the correct return code based on
the command as was done in the native mode, done in the next patch.

2. The VF driver receives an internal error event reported by the PF on the
communication channel. This occurs when the PF driver resets the device or
when VF is out of sync with the PF.

Add 'VF reset' capability, which allows the VF to reinitialize itself even when the
PF is not responsive.

As PF and VF may run their reset flow simulantanisly, there are several cases
that are handled:
- Prevent freeing VF resources upon FLR, when PF is in its unloading stage.
- Prevent PF getting VF commands before it has finished initializing its resources.
- Upon VF startup, check that comm-channel is online before sending
  commands to the PF and getting timed-out.

We activate reset flow upon command fatal errors, when the device enters an
erroneous state, and must be reset.

The cases below are assumed to be fatal: FW command timed-out, an error from FW
on closing commands, pci is offline when posting/pending a command.

In those cases we place the device into an error state: chip is reset, pending
commands are awakened and completed immediately. Subsequent commands will
return immediately.

The return code in the above cases will depend on the command. Commands which
free and close resources will return success (because the chip was reset, so
callers may safely free their kernel resources). Other commands will return -EIO.

Since the device's state was marked as error, the catas poller will
detect this and restart the device's software stack (as is done when a FW
internal error is directly detected). The device state is protected by a
persistent mutex lives on its mlx4_dev, as such no need any more for the

Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable
that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT,
QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used
to configure and query the device.

The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are:

Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are
limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user
in order to be used.

Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as
it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS.

Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if
the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized
steering in Default A0 DMFS mode).

Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW
supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll
work at Disable A0 DMFS mode.

Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled,
older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag
(MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and
fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that,
the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to
require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too.

In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param.
If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute
value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this
bit field enables static A0 steering.

(2) Special MAC-assigned QPs [RSS, Raw-Ethernet] each has its own region.

When we create a rss QP or a raw ethernet (A0 steerable and BF ready) QP,
we try hard to allocate the QP from range (2). Otherwise, we try hard not
to allocate from this  range. However, when the system is pushed to its
limits and one needs every resource, the allocator uses every region it can.

Meaning, when we run out of raw-eth qps, the allocator allocates from the
general range (and the special-A0 area is no longer active). If we run out
of RSS qps, the mechanism tries to allocate from the raw-eth QP zone. If that
is also exhausted, the allocator will allocate from the general range
(and the A0 region is no longer active).

Note that if a raw-eth qp is allocated from the general range, it attempts
to allocate the range such that bits 6 and 7 (blueflame bits) in the
QP number are not set.

When the feature is used in SRIOV, the VF has to notify the PF what
kind of QP attributes it needs. In order to do that, along with the
"Eth QP blueflame" bit, we reserve a new "A0 steerable QP". According
to the combination of these bits, the PF tries to allocate a suitable QP.

In order to maintain backward compatibility (with older PFs), the PF
notifies which QP attributes it supports via QUERY_FUNC_CAP command.

The zone allocator is a mechanism which manages a few mlx4_bitmaps.

When allocating a resource, the user indicates the desired zone of
which this resource will be allocated from. If possible, the resource
will be allocated from this zone. Otherwise, the resource will be
allocated from a less-than, equal-to, higher-than priority zone,
according to the desired zone's properties with that respective
allocation order.
