Resolve namespace issues when FCoE or DCB is not enabled. The issue is with certain configurations we end up with namespace problems. A simple example: ixgbe_main.c - defines func A() - uses func A() ixgbe_fcoe.c - uses func A() ixgbe.h - has prototype for func A() For default (FCoE included) all is good. But when it isn't the namespace checker complains about how func A() could be static. To resolve this, created a ixgbe_lib file to contain functions used by DCB/FCoE and their helper functions so that they are always in namespace whether or not DCB/FCoE is enabled.

This patch replaces the variable name data with the variable name features for ixgbe_fix_features and ixgbe_set_features. This helps to make some issues more obvious such as the fact that we were disabling Rx VLAN tag stripping when we should have been forcing it to be enabled when DCB is enabled. In addition there was deprecated code present that was disabling the LRO flag if we had the itr value set too low. I have updated this logic so that we will now allow the LRO flag to be set, but will not enable RSC until the rx-usecs value is high enough to allow enough time for Rx packet coalescing.

This change makes it so that we always write the DMA address for the skb itself on the same tx_buffer struct that the skb is written on. This way we don't need the MAPPED_AS_PAGE flag and we always know it will be the first DMA value that we will have to unmap. In addition I have found an issue in which we were leaking a DMA mapping if the value happened to be 0 which is possible on some platforms. In order to resolve that I have updated the transmit path to use the length instead of the DMA mapping in order to determine if a mapping is actually present. One other tweak in this patch is that it only writes the olinfo information on the first descriptor. As it turns out it isn't necessary to write it for anything but the first descriptor so there is no need to carry it forward.

Instead of keeping a local copy of the skb on the stack for as long as long as we do it makes sense to instead just place it on the first tx_buffer structure so that we can save space on the stack and avoid unnecessary read/write operations copying the pointer out of the stack and onto the ring later.

This patch replaces the existing Rx hot-path in the ixgbe driver with a new implementation that is based on performing a double buffered receive. The ixgbe driver already had something similar in place for its' packet split path, however in that case we were still receiving the header for the packet into the sk_buff. The big change here is the entire receive path will receive into pages only, and then pull the header out of the page and copy it into the sk_buff data. There are several motivations behind this approach. First, this allows us to avoid several cache misses as we were taking a set of cache misses for allocating the sk_buff and then another set for receiving data into the sk_buff. We are able to avoid these misses on receive now as we allocate the sk_buff when data is available. Second we are able to see a considerable performance gain when an IOMMU is enabled because we are no longer unmapping every buffer on receive. Instead we can delay the unmap until we are unable to use the page, and instead we can simply call sync_single_range on the half of the page that contains new data. Finally we are able to drop a considerable amount of code from the driver as we no longer have to support 2 different receive modes, packet split and one buffer. This allows us to optimize the Rx path further since less branching is required.

This patch makes the rings a part of the q_vector directly instead of indirectly. Specifically on x86 systems this helps to avoid any cache set conflicts between the q_vector, the tx_rings, and the rx_rings as the critical stride is 4K and in order to cross that boundary you would need to have over 15 rings on a single q_vector. In addition this allows for smarter allocations when Flow Director is enabled. Previously Flow Director would set the irq_affinity hints based on the CPU and was still using a node interleaving approach which on some systems would end up with the two values mismatched. With the new approach we can set the affinity for the irq_vector and use the CPU for that affinity to determine the node value for the node and the rings.

This change addresses several issue. First I had left the use of the next and prev skb pointers floating around in the code and they were overdue to be pulled since I had rewritten the RSC code in the out-of-tree driver some time ago to address issues brought up by David Miller in regards to this. I am also now defaulting to always leaving the first buffer unmapped on any packet and then unmapping it after we read the EOP descriptor. This allows a simplification of the path with less branching. Instead of counting packets received the code was changed some time ago to track the number of buffers received. This leads to inaccurate counting when you compare numbers of packets received by the hardware versus what is tracked by the software. To correct this I am revising things so that the append_cnt value for RSC accurately tracks the number of frames received.

It was possible to inadvertently add additional interrupt causes to the MSI-X other interrupt. This occurred when things such as RX buffer overrun events were being triggered at the same time as an event such as a Flow Director table reinit request. In order to avoid this we should be explicitly programming only the interrupts that we want enabled. In addition I am renaming the ixgbe_msix_lsc function and interrupt to drop any implied meaning of this being a link status only interrupt. Unfortunately the patch is a bit ugly due to the fact that ixgbe_irq_enable needed to be moved up before ixgbe_msix_other in order to have things defined in the correct order.
